Vol 3 Chapter 37: Dare to view the flag local

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

The Tokugawa shogunate did not actually send anyone to inspect the land for foreign names such as the Mori clan, Shimadzu clan, and Date clan. The local Shigao, it was purely that these foreign names came up with a perfunctory number, and the shogunate expressed approval and pulled it down.

However, most of the land granted by the kinsmen, genealogy, and Qiben had checked the land before granting them the land. Although the shogunate may not be completely clear about the specific situation, at least it is not a black eye.

Especially in the Kanto area, since Ieyasu Tokugawa entered the country, he has gone through many inspections of land, such as the land of the common people, that is, the general's Tianling. I don't know how many inspections. It stands to reason that no matter how much land is inspected, it is impossible to detect how many land from these heavens.

At the beginning, Yuan and Yanwu, the world's leading height of only about 20 million shi, has now roughly increased to more than 35 million, and of course it may exceed 40 million. In practice, at this time, it can barely feed 35 million people and it is almost the same. One person costs one stone a year, barely starving.

So the world should probably have so much grain output, plus other seafood and other things, so make it together, it can barely be maintained. If the population expands further, it will be "naturally adjusted", and large-scale famine and civil unrest will occur.

Since the shogunate has checked the sky many times and has not increased the height of the stone many times, where is the actual increase of the stone height? Of course it is in the territory of Zhixing that hasn't moved his **** for two hundred years!

Examining those Tianlings who have been inspected by the shogunate many times, I don’t know how many times. They can have more than one hundred and eighty thousand stones at a time. It looks like a lot, but it is tens of thousands of taels gold. Civil unrest, and the subsequent costs of maintaining stability, are really the most standard gains that outweigh the losses.

The point is that the land of the common people has been inspected many times. Those daimyo and banner territories handed down for two hundred years have hardly been inspected on a large scale by the shogunate.

Could it be that Mizuno Tadakuni wants to check the genealogy and Qimoto!

This is amazing. These two hundred years of inheritance of knowledge and behavior must have a considerable increase in stone height, even if it is not doubled, an increase of 30 to 40%, or even 70 to 80% is normal.

"In addition to the one in Kinai, did Hamamatsu also investigate the one in Kanto?" Chuemon looked at Akho Takashima.

"It seems that I did read the Kanto banners and the books of the knowledge of the pro-fan genealogy before." Takashima Qiuho was a little impressed.

However, he thought that Mizuno was in response to a large-scale compulsory lawsuit from the people of Kanto, and wanted to know the situation of the Tibetans in various places in Kanto and the situation of the daimyo and the flag. Not only did Takashima Akho do not think about it, other people who knew it did not think about it.

Chuemon seems to have heard the news, but at that time he had been ordered to investigate the dispute between Tokugawa Yoshisho and Matsudaira Yoshinobu at Owari, so he didn't care at all.

Until now, after putting all these news together, I felt that things were not simple at all. Look at what Mizuno Tadakuni is doing now, it seems that he has been pressing the shogunate banners to the limit.

There are more than 5,000 flag houses in the shogunate, and the knowledge and deeds given are worth two million stones. Most of these two million stones were inherited for more than one hundred years, or even two hundred years of inheritance. These territories really have not been inspected for many years. Once the land is inspected, it will immediately become 3 million or even 4 million shi. It is possible.

As long as the two million shogunate seals are returned to the banners, the extra one million stones found will not become a new source of wealth for the shogunate!

One million stone territories can at least help the shogunate to increase the income of 300,000 taels of gold each year, which can make the shogunate's financial collapse, greatly relieved, and even make the shogunate have a surplus.

Ideas are definitely good ideas, but the knowledge and deeds of the banners are their lifeblood. You reform the official selection system, that's okay, anyway, the meat is rotten in the pot, it is always the Kabamoto Yu family to do it. You let us pay for the messenger, and we endured it, in order to keep the current official duties.

If you have an official position, you will definitely be better off than not. As long as you stay in office, you will never starve to death. If there is no official position, people rely on salaries to live, and then people will starve to death.

Step by step, continue to test the bottom line of the Habmoto samurai and stimulate the nerves of the Habmoto samurai. Up to now, these Kabimoto samurai have not really launched a strong resistance against Mizuno Tadakuni. This definitely contributed to Mizuno's "confidence" and made him prepare for the next round of "search" against the Kabmoto samurai.

Just directly deducting salaries, what can that little money do? Directly increasing the shogunate's annual income by 300,000 taels is the way to make the shogunate last long. But this method is a bit too exciting.

"Cadaemon, what did you think of?" Kinmaru Yoshiki saw that Chuemon's expression changed, and he felt that there was something wrong with Chuemon.

"Hamamatsu examines the Kanto and Kinai flags to know the ground, so he has to check the ground!" Chuemon said this with hesitation, very slowly and lightly, but I listened to everyone here In, but like thunder.

"Ah this!"

Not to mention Jinmaru Yoshiki is unbelievable, everyone else can't believe it at all. No matter how bold Mizuno was, he would not do such a thing. This is going to poke a hole in the sky of the entire shogunate, or even poke the sky down for him.

Checking the land for the knowledge and action of the Kamoto samurai seems to have only moved the cakes of 5,000 families, but it is more serious than the cakes of millions of people in Kanto~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The common people are not much stronger. And with powerful countermeasures, it is impossible to go back to Edo to force a lawsuit, and even if they were not connected, they were suppressed by the local magistrate.

However, once the five thousand banners are united, they may even have the energy to change the day, and directly let the generals live in seclusion. If all the officials in the entire shogunate unanimously demanded the disposal of Mizuno, it would be of no use for Tokugawa Ieki to trust Mizuno.

Choosing to be hostile to the entire Tokugawa Samurai group, or to abandon Mizuno Tadakuni, who is also a teacher and friend, Tokugawa Isaiah must have his own choice!

"Hamamatsu Hou wouldn't be so unwise!" Akho Takashima couldn't believe it, thinking that Mizuno would not make fun of his political life.

This is not just joking about political life, it is joking about one's own life. You dare to touch the lifeblood of the five thousand banners, and you know how to do it. These five thousand banners have a few stunners, and they cut you halfway.

"I'm afraid Hou Hamamatsu really wants to do this!" Tadaoemon combined with history this time and finally decided.

One day Mizuno Tadakuni announces that he will censor the ground for Chimoto Chiyoshi, and one day he will be ousted by the Kachimoto samurai!
