"I'm afraid."

Hearing that Naohide still had the heart to ridicule, Oguri Tadashun couldn't help but be angry.

However, since last year, in the spring of the first year of Keio (1865), he was secretly demoted by the Ming Dynasty for proposing the "return of the original domain", and after he was transferred from the Kanjo and foreign commissions to the Edo Minami Town commission, his temper has been much more restrained.

Therefore, after Xiao Li snorted, he waited for Naoxiu to follow - if you can't say one, two, three, four, I will let Daozi find Yingzi to sue you for the black state, and let the grape trellis in your backyard completely fall down!

Naoxiu looked at his friend's anxious look, and couldn't help but sigh, if it weren't for more than 20 years of friendship, he would really think that the opposite side was a drama spirit:

Emperor Fuso hangs up, and you are in Edo Minami Town!

In addition, brother, you are like this, you have been brought down from the "another" pioneer of the New Deal innovation, and you are still thinking about what to do.

Thinking of this, although he felt that his friend was stupid, Naoxiu also had to admire his courage.

In the spring of the first year of Keio (1865), after submitting the "Fuso Colonization and Industrial Development of Jianbai" two years earlier, Oguri Tadashun brazenly went to the center of the shogunate and proposed to "return the original territory".

What is "the original collar returned"?

Isn't there a hereditary stone high in the flag of the shogunate, and everyone has a book of knowledge and action in their hands. But the shogunate has continued to take power for 200 years, and today, the banner book below 500 koku, the territory is actually long gone, and they are all managed by acting officials, and they sit and wait for the decimeter every year.

Moreover, even if the direct staff of more than 500 koku is required to live in Edo, except for the official duty, there are many generals who appoint acting officials to manage the territory-Tiannanhaibei, and it is inconvenient for them to return to their skills, so it is better to hand them over to the shogunate than to let the retainers toss, and it is not the case to ensure the harvest in drought and flood.

Oguri's "return of the original leader" is to return these flags to the owner, whose land should be managed.

As soon as this Jianbai was presented, it immediately caused an uproar:

Although not everyone was against it, most of the more than 10,000 flag books were extremely angry about it!

In fact, Oguri made it very clear in Jianbai that there are several benefits to "returning the original collar to Feng":

First, because of the boiling prices, there were real riots in various parts of the Imperial Territory.

Therefore, after a large number of banners were returned to their abilities, the shogunate's manpower and force at the local level increased, which could play a role in stabilizing the Quartet.

The second is that most of the flags in Edo are flashy and compete, and they have lost their samurai style.

When you return to your hometown, even if you can't cheer up immediately, you can always learn something useful when you start running your own territory.

Finally, Oguri unceremoniously pointed out that from the Tenpo Reform, Ansei Reform, and Bunkyu Reform (1862-1863) to the beginning of the first year of Genji (1864), the shogunate repeatedly demanded that redundant labor and frugal finances be reduced, but it was difficult for the Banners to gather in Edo.

Is Oguri right?

At least. Naohide and other reformist ministers felt that it was right.

If you make an analogy, the samurai, a specialty of Fuso, is basically no different from the Western nobles and the children of the Eight Banners of the Qing people.

The shelves are big, there are many pomp, and the flashiness is still fashionable, even if it can't be said that all flags are like this, but eighty percent of them can't run away.

And because of the large base and deep connections, although the shogunate mentioned the selection of good talents in many reforms, in the end, most of the positions still fell into the hands of these people.

In fact, it is not possible to give these gentlemen the position of service, more than 10,000 flag books, plus several times the number of children, and they all shout that their families have shed blood and sweat for the Tokugawa family for hundreds of years, not only is it unreasonable to shirk, but also procedurally unjustifiable - if you don't choose candidates for service from the top flag books of the samurai, won't the foundation of the Tokugawa family be shaken, and where is the Heavenly Order?

Of course, now that the West is aggressively encroaching, capable royal families and even ordinary townspeople, merchants, craftsmen, and ordinary people have a bright future, such as the second half of Naohide, isn't it also a straight rise?

However, a stinky fish can make a pot of soup, not to mention that there are more stinky fish in this pot than fresh fish, so it's hard to do anything.

Oguri has endured this for a long time, but he really can't bear it

Bearable:

At that time, as the Nagasaki commissioner, he presided over the secret trade of "exchanging Fuso gold for overseas silver", and made a profit of 2.55 million days at that time, which is equivalent to 8.5 million yuan of today's Wanyan small judgment!

Even if it becomes a pound, it will be 2.05 million, how much can this do.

But in the end, although the old man Jingyi and Xiao Li and others at that time were strictly guarded, there were still three out of five that were misappropriated by the clever name, and the subsidy was the family of each banner himself - there is no money to build, more rewards, hands as gold or something, let a few more children go out, build a few more palaces, open a few more general projects for all kinds of fairy card oil, this money will flow out in an uproar.

In addition, in order to settle the dispute with the Lu people, the eldest old Jing Yi handed over the Indemnity to Yingfojia, and spent a total of 1 million days to protect the small sentence.

Poor and hard-working, even the opening of the port, did not hesitate to cause the turmoil of gold, silver and copper goods to get this money, but in December of the first year of Wenjiu (1861), when he led a team to Europa to buy warships and machinery, there were only more than 20% left, equivalent to less than 500,000 pounds!

Isn't it funny that it was only £100,000 that ended up in the hands of the mission—even if there was no one out of ten, it would have been £200,000.

Moreover, after that, this kind of thing became more and more excessive.

Later, the new army of the shogunate, which was established by Bunjiu, took the bayonets on the rifles as an example, and one-third of the purchase cost was actually a kickback for the samurai in charge of the shogunate, and as a result, all the bayonets were shoddy and could not be used at all.

But the friend who helped him investigate the matter, Fu Komai Chaowen, was actually stunned that he was transferred, and only a few pawns were punished for this matter, and then it was over.

After the "Aoi Festival Change" in April of the first year of Genji (1864), the shogunate, which had the upper hand, accelerated the pace of farming and industrial development, so Oguri Tadashun could not tolerate these corpse vegetarian meals:

In order to raise money, the shogunate not only apportioned taxes to the wealthy merchants, but also increased taxes for the townspeople and the common people.

And in order to unite the princes, many projects have also opened their doors to raise funds.

This is going to be messed up, and the Oguri family, who initiated this matter, is shattered, and I'm afraid that the foundation of the shogunate will also be greatly shaken.

Therefore, Oguri wrote a letter asking for "the original leader to be returned", hoping to take the opportunity to clear a large amount of redundant labor to improve efficiency, and at the same time reduce the personnel expenses of the shogunate.

At that time, Naoxiu tried hard to dissuade him, but his friend looked impassioned, and he didn't stop him - Xiao Li's father Zhonggao was so angry that he fell seriously ill and almost didn't survive.

As a result, Oguri was refreshed.,But then he was transferred from the Kandai Commission.,Although the position of the Edo Minami Town Commission is a little higher.,But who doesn't understand the rise and the secret fall.。

If it weren't for the fact that he was a leader in the cultivation of industry, I am afraid that Oguri would have been put into a separate book long ago.

Moreover, this incident also aroused the vigilance of many ministers to carry out the reform of the breeding industry.

In addition, after the "Aoi Festival Incident" the previous year, the shogunate regained the upper hand on the bright side, and this difficult situation passed, and it was inevitable that some people would think again.

Therefore, after this incident, the reformists began to change from being proud to passive—the so-called reformists were the names of the forces supporting this matter after the "Fusang Colonization and Industrial Development and Jianbai" was officially proposed in the third year of Wenjiu (1863).

Qingyong, the leader of the reform faction and the president of political affairs, has since lost his status as a man of his word, although he is still nominally above 10,000 people under one person, but the people below are against him, and he is helpless most of the time.

Originally, after the "Aoi Festival Change", the shogun Ieshige was abnormal to the followers of the Restoration, and the shogunate also had high hopes for the Restoration, which led to a very good situation that year:

Shimazu Saibin, who had always been a staunch supporter of the shogunate, was appointed by the shogunate as the first "big boss" of the foreign domain, and after the combination of the public and military forces, the road to the integration of the shogunate and the feudal domain began.

And Yokoi, the mastermind of the president of political affairs, Kei Ei, and his proposal for the concert was also successfully approved. From then on, each feudal domain was able to send powerful people to participate in the discussion of governance in Edo. Compared with the previous superficial evaluation of the shogunate, this concert hall made the princes, especially the outside, much louder.

In addition, the shogunate began to drastically break down the barriers and invite the princes to recommend talented people to serve in the middle and lower ranks.

For example, Naoxiu's survey

That's how it came about.

The selection of the straight show is also because of his special identity:

Originally, Naohide was the Tokugawa family's Oshimoto, but later, although his son Shigeru Toshi established the country as the White Lord Matsudaira family, it could be used as a traditional means of tolerance, and his qualifications for the Oshiki Banner were retained by the shogunate.

Although Naohide's main job was to coordinate the princes' various families to cooperate with the shogunate's cultivation and industry, not only did he not hear many secrets, but he also had to bring his own bean bag, the gold gift from the Hakujo Matsumae family to the shogunate, and these expenses were much higher than the service materials that Naohide received.

Insert a sentence, it's really good, it's worth pretending, and Android and Apple phones support it!

But in any case, Naohide, as the de facto "Imperial Daimyo of Goreneda", was able to deeply participate in shogunate politics, which was undoubtedly the beginning of the integration of the shogunate and the domain.

Isn't there a saying, everything is difficult at the beginning, and a thousand dollars buy horse bones.

Although no one could achieve such a high position as Naohide at that time, no one could achieve such a high position as Naohide in the lineage or even the courtiers of the outer daimyo, but at that time, everyone believed that the Fuso proposed by the shogunate was unanimous, and it seemed that it was definitely not an empty word.

Even because Naohide was a different kind of survey, in addition to the shogunate leader, he was responsible for coordinating the economy of all parts of Fuso, and at that time some people called Naohide "the chief acting official of the world".

How good was the situation at that time, and the princes who were close to the shogunate even proposed in the Shinsoin that the customs offices of each family be abolished as soon as possible, and that the houses within Fuso should not tax each other!

However, in the spring of the first year of Keio (1865), Oguri Tadashun proposed to "return the original domain", and this favorable situation began to be suppressed:

The first was that the shogunate began to be more wary of the reformers.

For example, the decline in the prestige of the president of political affairs, Qingyong, is nothing more than a representative of all kinds of non-cooperation.

Second, many of the shoguns began to reject foreign officials.

These courtiers, in the name that non-banners could not guarantee loyalty, began to crowd out a small number of courtiers who entered the shogunate.

Moreover, the attack was very widespread, not only were the courtiers of the foreign princes not allowed to smoke, but even the courtiers of the relatives, the royal branches and the pedigree began to be discriminated against in various ways.

As for attracting new people to the shogunate, it became even more difficult.

For example, the Yokohama Quanye Bank, which is making money every day, was originally the president of Keiyong's henchman Hachiro Mioka.

But under the operation of the ministers, through the form of new shares of wealthy businessmen, Mioka was actually set up - it is difficult for these people to figure out the concept of Western directors, which caused Mioka to be overwhelmed by the board of directors formed by various immortals.

As for the Yokosuka Iron Works, which was a joint venture of the shogunate, it escaped.

This is because the Second World Economic Crisis in 1867 was already beginning to appear, and from 1864 onwards, the British vigorously oppressed the Mi shipbuilding industry.

As a result, the Vanderbilt family began to shrink shipbuilding, and under persuasion, they transferred two shipyards and a large amount of machinery to Fuso, and began to sell them to Yokosuka Iron Works one after another.

As the Minister of the Rice People, Vanderbilt Jr., he expressed his concern about this matter, and no matter what the reason, no one would dare to trouble the Suga Iron Works anyway.

But these unpleasant are all Oguri Tadashun's pots.

Even if he did not propose the "return of the original domain" in the spring of 1865, with the integration of the shogunate and the promotion of the industrial industry, various infighting would accumulate due to the conflict of power and interests.

But at that time, Oguri didn't listen to Naohide's persuasion, waiting for the opportunity to take revenge, but Naohide waited for a long time - not a grudge, Naohide was afraid.

Xiao Li is bold, if he doesn't teach him some lessons, he won't be able to break the sky in the future!

Naohide remembered that Oguri later supported a big loan from the Francis, but the Buddha broke the contract at a critical moment, but he was stunned and wiped out the entire Tokugawa shogunate.

Now the Fuso Emperor, who has always been inclined to the combination of public and military forces, and the whole of Fuso began to be in turmoil in the second year of Keio (1866) this year, Oguri was worried about the future of the shogunate, so he couldn't sit still, so he went to the well-informed self to seek solace.

At this time, if you don't ridicule him with a "I'm afraid", I'm afraid I won't have a chance in the future.

To be honest, the situation in Fuso now is much better than Naohide knows.

Therefore, Zhixiu is waiting for someone to jump out and make trouble while the chaos is in chaos, and he really thinks that his "acting official of the world" in the past two years has been done in vain!
