, The fastest update of the latest chapters of Edo Traveler!

Not long after, there was news in Edo Honjo that the lord of the Mino Takasu Domain, Yoshiken Matsudaira, had been out of Owari's family as Owari Mireie. Of course, the Aizu family, who may be extinct, also got a satisfactory heir. It was the second son Yoshiro Matsudaira of the Takasu Domain.

Because he was old enough to take the original costume, he was given the character by Tokugawa Ikei, changed his name to Matsudaira Keiyong, and officially became the heir of the Aizu clan. Anyway, Matsudaira Rongjing felt that this eldest nephew was very good, tall and strong, and he could get married and have a son when he returned home. Naturally, he didn't care if he missed the heir who should have belonged to him.

Because of his young age, Yun Zhiyun was not able to take the original clothes, so he was raised in the nearby Owari clan residence under the castle and became a hostage of the Owari clan in the shogunate. Of course, Tokugawa Qishuang is also in Edo, and the father and son just exchanged and established a relationship.

By the way, because of the elevated status, Yun Zhiyun, who stayed at the Owari clan residence, suddenly became the heir of the Owari family, one of the three imperial families, and his communication circle also rose to a new level. Within a few days, I met a certain prince who was not far away from the Mito Clan residence. The two were about the same age. Because Takasu Clan was actually of Mito's blood, he was a kind cousin, so the two quickly settled down. After playing together, they often visit each other.

Well, this prince of the Mito Clan is called Shichiro Maro!

Originally, this Shichiro Maro was in Mito. Because he was extinct from the predecessor family, he asked the shogunate for heirs. The pro-feudal vassals were almost extinct. There was no way but from the very capable Mito Tokugawa Qiaki Adoptive adopted children. At that time, he was planning to ask for Shichiro Maro, but Tokugawa Qi Zhao felt that his fifth child was suitable, so he did not send him out. Now he is raising him by his side so that he has the opportunity to spend time with Liu Zhiyun.

As for what Lao Qi is waiting for, it's really hard to say for a while...

These are all digressions. After knowing that the shogunate had indeed received the acknowledgment from the shogunate, Chuyouemon couldn't express his joy in his heart after leaving the Owari family. Our butterfly, finally, successfully flapped its wings for the first time and changed a major event at the end of the scene. This thing is more refreshing than eating ice watermelon on dog days, and Chuemon, who rode home on his horse, hummed all the way.

"Isn't he just sending a child to Owari's house, so happy?" Shiroku Minoru didn't think there was anything special about that Yunzhiyun, and he didn't know what Chuemon was running for him.

"I am kind to the next generation of Patriarch Owari, so I'm not happy." Chuemon was pleased.

"You're so happy, look and see..." Shu Liuchao made a stubborn bite, and the streets of Edo were as bustling and lively as ever.

Along the way, there were shogunate tolerances who broke into the house, and the rogue gangsters under them. Well, everyone thought well, the dignified shogunate is leading the team to "rob" along the street!

It is not an exaggeration at all. Tadakuni Mizuno, who was stimulated by the inspection report of Chuemon, determined to enrich the shogunate's finances, save money, reorganize the shogunate's armaments, and accelerate the construction of the Edo Bay Fort, so he issued the "Great Frugality Order"!

It is said that the whole country should be unified and frugal, but in fact, it is not a matter of princes and ministers, how extravagant or wasteful the generals and Daao should be. The target is nothing but the townspeople and farmers. In order to implement the frugal order of the old man, the samurai masters in Edo town are taking their temporary workers and arresting people who are not frugal.

How can it be considered not thrifty? Of course I said that if you are not thrifty, you are not thrifty!

Everyone knows the lavish habit of the people of Edo. Basically all of their property is on clothes and quilts. In the event of a fire, they just need to wear clothes and quilts and run away. Now that the frugality decree is promulgated, all those gorgeous and expensive silk clothes do not conform to the king's law and need to be confiscated.

Choose for yourself, go to jail or take off your clothes?

In order to ensure that Edo's thrift was completed in a short time, the officials and messengers were in full swing, breaking into houses along the streets and looting. It is also convenient to **** expensive items from private houses, and some officials are followed by pawnshops and old clothes shops. If you grab it on the spot, you can exchange money on the spot.

Alas, if you talk about it, it’s a personal matter. By issuing such a decree, Mizuno was pushing himself against the people of Edo. Although his intention may not be the case, but the actual operation of the personnel is like this, and the notoriety will inevitably fall on him in the end.

However, this matter also has an advantage that is not good enough. The morale of the Kibmoto samurai of the shogunate is extremely high, especially the samurai who participated in the implementation of the thrift order. One by one, "It can be a battle", and everyone who yells is willing to die for the general. Even the popularity of Mizuno Tadakuni among the shogunate flagmoto samurai has risen.

I really hope Master Mizuno will issue a thrift order every year!

In addition, Mizuno Tadakuni announced a minimum wage in order to strengthen the economic strength of the various domains and the banners of the world. Of course, this minimum wage standard only corresponds to peasants who go to cities to work, artificially lowering the wages of hired peasants. As a result, their daily wages for working hard in cities and towns for a day are not enough for spending a day in cities and towns, and they artificially force the farmers who enter the cities to return to their villages to work in agriculture. Strengthen the control of the villages of the various domains, and systematically exploit the peasants.

At the same time, the confiscation of the wealth of the wealthy merchants of Edo and Osaka towns was used as the benchmark, and half of the debts of the world's daimyo (mainly pro-fans, regardless of whether you live or die) and Qimoto were exempted, which is the so-called "declaration of morality." In the future, half of the money owed by the samurai will not be repaid. The remaining half can be paid back with the money confiscated at the end of the shogunate~www.wuxiaspot.com~ It is the best way to pay it back, and it is not too bad.

In short, the daimyo and Kanmoto who were about to fight immediately were debt-free and light, and Zhuoroku was actually one of the beneficiaries. The debt of more than 100 taels of gold owed by his father Kinmaru Yoshiki disappeared in just a few days. NS. From now on, their Jinwan family will never owe anyone a penny again.

It was naturally the wealthy merchants from the townsmen who were injured. The property was searched and the debts left outside were gone. The wind blows the eggshells, making money go to people's comfort.

The ordinary people of Edo were naturally dissatisfied with such continuous evil policies and complained. As a result, the newly appointed town pursued Torii Yozo, under the pretext of censoring publications, and banned a large number of dramas that smeared the shogunate. At the same time, the literary and artistic authors Yanoting Kinahiko, Yong Chunsui and others were all arrested and jailed. Prevent these people from writing plays or novels that satirize the administration of the shogunate.

As for the development of new fields, measures such as draining the water from the fan marsh and assisting the rich peasants or landlords in reclamation. Those are old routines, so there is no need to repeat them. Basically, it is of little use. The newly harvested rice is not enough to fill the bottomless pit of the shogunate's finances.

Chuemon estimated that this old middle school of Mizuno Chukuni would not last long. Although the exact time is not yet clear, it may be time to cut.
