Chapter 7 The Uses of the Katana Sword [Please collect!Ask for votes! 】
Ogata stopped worrying about whether he traveled back to ancient Japan now, or traveled to ancient Japan in a parallel world.
Anyway, no matter where you travel, it is the same, you have to eat, sleep and live well every day.
So, Ogata began to think about the next question - how would he live in the future.
bass.
Ogata unsheathed the sword in his arms again.
Looking at the sharp blade, Ogata let out a long sigh.
"Knife... what use is it in this day and age..."
Although the Edo period was an era when samurai were respected, samurai had the privilege of being known as sabers.
But—Since the opening of the Tokugawa Shogunate, Japan has been at peace for more than 100 years and nearly 200 years.
The whole country is at peace.
To put it bluntly - the samurai sword has no use at all these days.
The system in Ogata's mind is obviously a cheat that allows Ogata to quickly improve his martial arts in a very short period of time.
Defeat and kill opponents to gain experience points.
With experience points, you have skill points.
With skill points, you can have a powerful body and superb martial arts in an instant.
However—what's the use of having a strong body and superb martial arts?
There is no need for any samurai swords in this era, so what's the use of being a great swordsman?
In such an era of peace, the best way out after becoming a great swordsman is to open a sword gym.
If he can successfully open a sword gym in the future and attract a large number of disciples, then Xu Bianyi will be able to live a good life, and he will no longer have to live on porridge every day like he is now.
but......
Thinking of the best way out for him in the future, which is to open a sword gym, he felt... a bit lost.
He is not interested in opening a sword gym, he doesn't want to open any sword gym.
But if you want to ask Ogata himself - what do you want to do.Ogata himself can't answer...
Ogata doesn't know what he wants to do, what he can do...
Various thoughts raced back and forth in Ogata's mind.
How time goes by bit by bit.
Gradually, Ogata felt drowsiness gradually pouring out of his body.
"what time is it now......"
There is no clock for Ogata to tell the time.
Although the approximate time can be inferred from the weather, Ogata is too lazy to go out.
Since he felt sleepy, Xu simply decided to go to sleep directly.
After all - he still has to go to work tomorrow.
......
......
Ordinary samurai like Ogata who do not have fiefdoms can be regarded as civil servants if they are compared with figurative words.
The samurai who belonged to the shogunate helped the shogunate handle various political affairs.
The same is true for the samurai who belong to the various daimyos, helping their lords handle various political affairs.
Except for those ronin who lost their lords or were expelled from the domain, the samurai basically had jobs.
And Ogata's job is the treasury officer.
It functions a bit like the accountant of modern Earth.
Specially responsible for managing and counting various material inventories of the feudal government.
The official position of treasury officer is also divided into quite a few levels.
Ogata happened to be a relatively low-level existence among the treasury officials.
It is precisely because Ogata is a relatively low-ranking treasury official that his annual salary is only a miserable 50 shi...
……
……
It was just dawn, and Xu woke up conveniently.
Today is the second day that Ogata came to the Edo period.
At the same time, it was also the first morning that Ogata experienced after coming to the Edo period.
After a brief wash and dressing, Xu put his two sabers back into his left waist and was ready to go to work in the city.
During the day, he works as a warehouse officer, after get off work, he goes to the Abyss Sword Hall to practice swords, and at night he goes to bed after dinner-this is Ogata's daily life.
Regular and boring at the same time.
Ogata lives in a remote place, so he has to get up early every day to arrive at work before being late.
......
......
"Ogata-kun, good morning."
"Ogata-kun, you look good today."
"Good morning, Ogata."
......
Ogata responded to these greetings from his colleagues with a smile.
Those who greeted Ogata were all treasury officials—all Ogata's colleagues.
Ogata is currently in a room that is neither too spacious nor too cramped.
The room is full of desks.
Ogata and his colleagues work in this room every day in front of these cases.
Some people who arrived earlier have already bowed their heads before the case and started today's work.
After responding with smiles to his colleagues who greeted him one by one, Ogata knelt down in front of his desk.
Ogata's desk case is exactly the same as those of his colleagues - they are all placed with paper and pen, abacus, and piled up with various ledgers.
The relationship between Ogata and these colleagues who are also treasury officers is actually not very close.
The main reason may be related to age.
Ogata was the only young man in the room.
The rest are middle-aged and elderly people who have already grown gray hair.
Because of the large age gap, Ogata and these middle-aged and elderly people have nothing in common to talk about, so the relationship with these colleagues is naturally not very good.
In addition, Ogata hardly participated in any entertainment on weekdays.
These colleagues of his went to drink and listen to music together every two days.
And they naturally invited Ogata to participate many times.
But for their invitation, Ogata has always refused.
The reason why he didn't go out to socialize or go out to drink with them, on the one hand, was because Ogata was poor and didn't have much money.
On the other hand, it was because Ogata wanted to practice swords with his brothers in the Sakakibara Sword Gym rather than drinking and socializing.
Those people headed by Makino are Ogata's friends.
Compared to socializing with colleagues who are not very familiar with him, Ogata prefers to practice his favorite sword with his friends in the sword gym.
Ogata and his colleagues who are also treasury officials are just ordinary colleagues and acquaintances.
Without exchanging too many pleasantries with his colleagues, Ogata directly opened a ledger in front of the desk and started working.
......
......
Ogata inherited everything from "Ogata Hara" except his character.
Memory, swordsmanship, and work ability.
He tapped the abacus with ease, calculating the incoming and outgoing changes of various materials he was responsible for, and the work was proceeding in an orderly manner.
The small room was covered by the sound of flipping paper and beating beads.
But—no matter where you are or what kind of occupation you are in, there are always people who paddle while working.
Just like now—some people started deserting, chatting while working on the other side.
"Do you know about 'that incident' yesterday?"
"'That thing'? Which thing?"
"Ah, I know. I've heard it from other people."
"What's the matter?"
"...The lord went hunting again yesterday. On the way back from hunting, a little girl accidentally ran into the lord's car while playing with a ball..."
"...And then? What happened to that little girl...?"
"I don't know... I heard that the lord killed him with a knife, and I also heard that the little girl didn't die... Anyway, the little girl's fate should not be very good. It's..."
Chapter 8 Research System
Although Ogata has not stopped the work at hand, he has been quietly listening to the chatter of these colleagues.
——My lord... Matsudaira Gennai...
Matsudaira Gennai—the current daimyo of the Hirose Clan, the lord of Ogata and the others.
Ogata is a samurai of the Hirose Domain.
As the daimyo and ruler of the Hirose Domain, Matsudaira Genuchi is naturally the lord of Ogata and the others, the lord whom Ogata and the others have to protect and support even if they risk their lives.
Matsudaira Gennai is a young daimyo who is only 23 years old this year.
Although young, since he took over the mantle of his late father two years ago and became the new ruler of the Hirose domain, Matsudaira Gennai has shown his brutal nature...too many to describe.
When Genuai Matsudaira's father was still alive, Genuai Matsudaira's cruel nature was still restrained.
But after his father died and no one could tell him what to do, Matsudaira Gennai completely showed his brutal side.
In just two years, all kinds of absurd and cruel actions by him are countless.
......
......
Ogata didn't pay much attention to the chat content of those colleagues just now.
After all—he was just a low-level warrior with an annual salary of only 50 shi.
Not in his position, not seeking his own government - this has always been Ogata's way of life.
That's why he didn't care what absurdity his lord did again.
He is just a small low-level samurai, and there is no need for Ogata to worry about this kind of thing.
Ogata just wants to continue doing his job well.
It's up to those big shots to find a way to solve the problem of the lord's brutality.
