Vol 10 Chapter 59: When there is a mission to Europe

"His Royal Highness, Hou Tatsuno said that he will come to visit after he is off duty." Kurokawa Keitoku stood on the porch and reported to Chungemon.

   "Did you say anything?"

   "Said it is to bring noodles."

"Noodles?"

   Chuemon was taken aback first, then relieved. In the summer, the Japanese do have the tradition and habit of eating cold noodles, and in this year, the poor can't afford to eat noodles. After all, it is not easy to make noodles. But just send me noodles. If you need Wakisaka Yasaka to come here in person, something must be done.

   By the way, the noodles he sent, and the noodles sold in the Japanese market in later generations, although it is one thing, but this thing is much more advanced.

   Ryuno Castle has a large shrine, which has been called a noodle shrine in later generations. This is not surprising. There are eight million gods in Japan, and there are no shrines. If you have an impression, maybe you can remember what we said before about the octopus Amitabha Tathagata. As long as you worship, I can have it.

   Among the monks at the Great Shrine, there are those who are very good at making noodles. In Japan, many of these dishes, as well as tea ceremony, flower path, etc., are inseparable from temples and shrines. Including soba noodles, steamed buns, and kaiseki dishes, most of them are spread from the temple.

   The noodles made in this temple are called Sanshin noodles because there are three gods enshrined in the shrine. Anyway, this noodle noodle is more delicious than ordinary noodle noodles, and it is used to be a kind of tribute.

   is the high gate like Chuemon, or the home of the princes who are close to the Tatsuno clan, it is possible to eat such a cup of cold high-quality noodles in the summer.

   If you see this person greedy, don't think about it. This thing has become extinct in the 21st century and has not been preserved. Although the masters of Ojin Shrine are still selling Sanshin noodles to the outside world, they only have a name.

   It is said that there may be so many old men in Japan who can pull this kind of noodles, but if you really want to find and buy, you will inevitably not find it, so don't think about it anymore.

   Putting aside the noodles, Wakisaka Yasutaka should have something to talk about. Just under the guise of sending noodles, Chuemon is not a person who specializes in this.

   Not long after, after a short afternoon, Wakizaka Yasaka came, not only him, but Sukeru. The chief and deputy chiefs and deputies of foreign countries have all arrived. What is this?

   "This noodles look great." Of course it is good. If you don't eat it now, it will become extinct in a few decades.

   "His Royal Highness wants to eat it, just say, it's easy." Wakisaka Yasaka approached Chuemon Gate.

   "Okay, well, come today, it's not just for a bowl of noodles, right?" Tadaemon put the lacquer box away and slowly pushed aside, looking at Wakisaka Yasutaka and Sukeruku.

   "Today, the Scanner and Tsushima are arguing again, discussing the recruitment of the training team." Wakisaka Yasutaka is the old middle school, and helping Roku takes over Tademon's handling of the training team going abroad to participate in the war. All are the parties involved.

   Hearing that this was the case, Chuemon frowned. There is nothing we can do. Few other countries are like Japan, where only samurai can monopolize the power to serve as soldiers. After all, not any country has a population of tens of millions of gentry, and then it can be consumed for a long time and quickly replenished.

   People are not leeks. There are always people who think that leeks are cut and grown, and there is no shortage of children and grandchildren. But in fact, it's not so. If you don't apply fertilizer or water after cutting, the leeks will be cold, and you won't be able to cut it next time you want to cut it.

   "What was the result of the argument?" Chuemon asked.

   "Where is there any result, it is unhappy to leave." Wakisaka Yasaka sighed.

  Makukaku, after entering the shit-chucking stick, Shinmasa Ando, ​​is no longer in a state of harmony. Basically, everything is in a state of controversy and rebuttal. Development to the current situation, almost to the point where Ii Naobi said, Ando Shinmasa would inevitably oppose it.

   It’s no longer just a matter of fact. To oppose it, if you want to be tough, I must be weak. If you want to maintain the shogunate’s arbitrary authority, I must participate in the affairs of the princes and discuss state affairs.

   If it weren’t for the Tokugawa family to be the ruler, and the country’s military power was still in the hands of Matsudaira, who was indirectly influenced by the Tokugawa family, what moths would come out in the pavilion.

   If it were replaced by Tokugawa Iamashi, who succeeded to the throne at the age of twelve in history, and the younger king is on the throne, basically the fate is at the mercy of the generation ministers. The government of the shogunate will only collapse day after day in such chaos.

   "Where is Kamiya? Is there an imperial referee?" Chuemon asked next.

   After all, the words of Tokugawa Isaiah still count now. If he has soldiers and money, and the feudal emperor has mastered these two things, there will be no major problems in his rule.

   "I haven't played the sami..." Tokugawa Isaiah also feels better when the weather is suitable in spring and autumn, but not in summer or winter.

   Things that can not trouble him, generally don't trouble him. Sometimes even if it was played, he would only reply with one sentence. You can discuss it yourself.

   "Hey..." The three people in the room fell silent. UU reading www.uukanshu. com

   "Not long ago, France's Roche suggested that the Shogunate should send an observer mission to Europe to understand the current situation of European countries and try to reform the current situation of the Shogunate." Zhu Liu said in a low voice.

   "What do you mean?" Chuemon turned around.

   "Same as the King of the Netherlands, he always said that the world trend has changed, and it is useless to stick to the old one. It must be visited for new styles and conform to the times."

   "That's good..." Chuemon nodded.

   The Dutch told the shogunate ten years ago, hurry up and reform. If you don't reform and reform, you will soon be involved in the tide of world capitalism. You will not be able to decide what happens at that time. However, Ieaki Tokugawa didn't seem to care very much at the time, but started the modernization reform slowly.

   It’s all right now, one step later, one step later, even the French have come to persuade the shogunate to change quickly. If it remains the same, I don't know what it will look like in the future.

   is nothing more than a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society.

   But what they said is right. The shogunate had better send an envoy to inspect the political, economic, and military aspects of European and American countries in an all-round way, and submit a detailed report after returning home so that the shogunate would have a comprehensive understanding of the foreign countries. At least it wasn't by Chuemon alone again, desperately dragging the broken ship of the shogunate forward.

   "What does your highness mean?"

   "Why don't you propose to Shangzhi, headed by Yujiamen, visit European and American countries!"
