Edo Traveler
Vol 7 Chapter 77: Disaster preparedness and disclosure
Tokugawa Ieki heard reports from Ooka Tadagou, Kasuga Yoshihiro, and Matsudaira Massuno. He looked at Tadaemon below, and smiled slightly, with some kind of "favoring" in his smile.
"Since Chuemon is so sure, let's do it!"
"Ho ho!"
There is something else to say about the censorship. The rest is nothing more than discussing the details of the disposal. In addition, even though this matter was mentioned by Chuemon, but Chuemon does not care about the shogunate’s finances, Hisashi Nagai, who is in charge of Naezo, was passed over and was responsible for the matchmaking. Deal with this matter.
"Tadaemon, how old are you? In which year are you born?" Tokugawa Ieki doesn't seem to have much interest in famine prevention or anything, but Chuemon is more interested in it.
"I was born in the 7th year of Bunsei (1824). It is said that his birthday is August 12, and he is 27 years old this year." Chungemon replied respectfully.
"You are the same age as Masanosuke! But you are more than a hundred days younger than him." Tokugawa Ieki nodded, loving the young Chuemon.
"It happens to be the same as His Royal Highness."
"Yes, yes, I will also serve the government with such loyalty in the future."
He is young, and knows how to do things, and even takes the initiative to take care of things. Tokugawa Ieki started just admiring Chuemon, but now he "spoils" Chuemon. The shogunate needs such talents. If this broken ship wants to continue sailing, it must not need such people to burn itself and drive the shogunate.
"Don't dare to slacken off." Chuemon felt that Tokugawa Iekei was still capable, and he was probably not a stun-kun.
Come on, this matter is at least at the center of the shogunate, and progress is fairly smooth. However, the Hades is aggressive, the imps are hard to deal with, and the upturned rice warehouse, which has been in deficit, is what needs attention this time. The shogunate took out one hundred thousand taels and bought rice and stored it in a warehouse. After the fall, the famine broke out, but the shogunate was unable to provide food for relief.
After leaving the Central Olympic Palace, Ooka Tadaguro sent someone to gather the rest of the old middle school. For such a major event, the old middle school must ventilate inside, and then let the management encircling the rice warehouse to carry out the investigation and cooperation. Buying rice is quite simple. As soon as the money from the shogunate arrives, the rice merchants in Edo will be able to deliver the rice immediately.
It's just a matter of changing between the left and right hands. Anyway, a lot of the grain of the shogunate itself is stored and sold by the rice merchants, and it is really a matter of connecting with the shogunate.
How to check the actual situation of the surrounding rice warehouse?
Hisashi Nagai came out with him. He is an internal member of the "Ministry of Finance". In fact, he has a bit of an account in his heart, but he certainly wouldn't say it. Speaking out, all colleagues will be hostile to him. So after accepting the order, Hisashi Nagai negotiated with Chuemon alone.
Don't check it first, and don't encourage the old middle school to check it. I have this matter. Give me three to five days!
Since it's Nagai Hisashi's face, how could Tademon not give it, it's only Midharu anyway, and it's fine to postpone it for three to five days. Hisashi Nagai must be going to falsify the account and smooth the account. Or mobilize some relationship forces, let your colleagues either "borrow" some rice, or spit some rice, at least let the surrounding rice warehouse have a basic appearance.
Chuemon, who hadn't prepared a thorough investigation, had no choice but to go directly to Shuroku. Sukeroku, who is serving as Edo-Minami Town, will be the first to bear the brunt of a large-scale famine. The people of Edo are actually quite a group of Geming traditions, but the most precious thing for the people of Paris is the barricade, and because Edo is a wooden city, the flower of Edo is the spark.
If your princes can't reduce rent, interest, and annual tribute, then I’m sorry, we’re going to set fire to your official residence and palace, you can figure it out.
One after another, the citizens riots and the peasants resisted, year after year! From the three generations of Shogun Tokugawa Ie Mitsuji, until the establishment of the new Meiji government, there have been more than 1,200 recorded protest movements of various types for more than two hundred years.
If Zhuliu, who was in office, didn't deal with it well, it would be fine to ask the crime, and it would not be impossible to be attacked and killed!
When the time comes, the shogunate will ration rice at a fair price, and it will inevitably help Liuhaosheng to cooperate. The Edo Town Office was able to pull out thousands of people at once, maintain the order of the streets in Edo, and ensure the normal sale of the shogunate’s salvation rice.
As for the price, as long as it doesn't say that it has skyrocketed eight times to ten times, it is twice as expensive as usual, Chuemon will not say it, it will not take care of it.
If feudal officials can't get oil and water, apart from a few honest and honest officials, the remaining officials will certainly not work hard. The broken ship of the shogunate is of this kind, and it can't be cured in a short time.
The official office of the Edo-Minami Town Magistrates Office is just under the castle, just a few steps away. Shuroku is in the midst of questioning the case. He is from a concentric background and has been an official for many years. He has dealt with more robberies than the boats under the Japanese bridge.
The case was small, it was just an ordinary theft. When the thief took out the stolen goods, he was immediately discovered by Tingfang, who was born as a gangster. After a severe beating, all the stolen goods in this case were vomited out, and of course the other stolen goods and belongings went into Na Tingfang's pockets.
Seeing that Chuemon came over, Shurokuwang broke a hard labor under the city for half a year for the thief. Let's dig the stinky mud of the rivers of Edo. If you are a thief, you will have this consciousness.
"Hinata Shou-sama is so busy, why come to find me free?" Zhuliu walked over with a smile.
"There are a few things to explain, how can we compare to the majestic Jinmaru Master." Chungemon also smiled.
"Walk around, UU reading www.uukanshu.com said."
The two walked all the way to Shuroku, the official government office, and Chuemon didn't hide anything from Shuroku, telling him directly that the shogunate was preparing to buy rice on the market in preparation for a possible famine after autumn.
At that time, it is necessary to maintain the order of the street with all its strength, and at the same time, it is necessary to help the shogunate to distribute rice at a fair price to ensure that the people of Edo can struggle to survive and not be taken by rice merchants ten or twenty times the blood and sweat.
He will definitely take care of the matter, but he is curious why the shogunate will determine the great famine this year and start hoarding food now. Chungemon talked about Takemi's affairs, saying that there might be a catastrophe, so he had to make preparations early.
When Chuemon left, Sukeruben summoned two or three trusted subordinates and told them to do a good job of visiting and investigating the towns and towns where the poor were located, and to prepare for the possible catastrophe (repression) in the future.
At the same time, several elders secretly instructed their family elders and important ministers to save a little grain to prepare for a possible famine this year.
One pass two, two pass three. Gradually, news of a possible large-scale famine in the world spread like wildfire in some small circles.
