Volume 1 The First Cry Chapter 72 Master Iwasaki

Since talking to Naohide, Oguri no longer cares about the hookup between Naohide and Yoshida.

Later, Naohide told Yoshida the truth of the selection and breeding of improved varieties at this time, Fuso also has a tradition of breeding improved varieties, but there is no theoretical guidance, can only rely on luck, in addition to the breeding of rice and cattle, if you rely on private investment, the investment is little and the effect is very slow, not to mention limited by the region, in a small area to screen the good breed, basically nothing to do.

Osmaga's great druid Mendel only published his paper on plant hybridization experiments in the autumn of 1865, and the formal establishment of genetics was not until 1910, when the American scientist Morgan discovered the law of linkage exchange.

It's not that Yoshida doesn't believe in Naohide, but because of an eternal problem and no money.

Yoshida told Naohide that the Tosa clan was financially tight and had no money to invest, so there were many things that could not be done, and even if they were reluctantly done, they would be ruined.

"Have you ever heard of Amway, phew, crowdfunding" Naohide explained to Yoshida that this good breed breeding is indeed risky, and it may not produce results if it is done, but it will work out in the future, and it is really not possible to invite private wealthy businessmen and farmers to raise funds

Yoshida shook his head vigorously, and Oguri also secretly told Naohide that the shogunate's reward for the old farmer who offered good seeds was thirty taels of gold, and no more than one hundred taels at most, and he had never heard of the patent right. Naohide grinned when he heard this, now a carpenter can earn twenty-five taels a year in Edo if he does a good job, and how can he do it for more than ten years to screen and cultivate improved varieties, and the gold is a few hundred taels a year, and the result is that the gold is several thousand taels in exchange for thirty taels, and the rate of return is too poor to do it.

Yoshida also explained that crowdfunding is not possible, and that in the past, Tosa encouraged wealthy merchants and farmers to reclaim wasteland, but in recent years, Tosa has carried out feudal reforms, and the new fields reclaimed by merchants and wealthy farmers have either been confiscated or distributed to landless farmers.

Zhixiu pondered, the remaining choice is not to find a wealthy businessman with a backer or a wealthy farmer with a background, and the only way to take the road of monopoly privilege is to take the road of monopoly privilege

Toyonobu Yamauchi on the side was dizzy when he heard it, he used to think that Tosa's finances were not good because of the local government, acting officials, or corruption and bribery, or inability, but now he found that things didn't seem to be like that, but how to solve the problem of returning the land to the wealthy merchants and farmers, and what to do with the landless farmers He was also confused.

Naohide asked Yoshida if the cement and salt works were still in the way, and Yoshida said that he would do it, and that the wasteland by the sea was not worth much, so he could find a wealthy businessman to invest. Naohide reminded him that the salt field is divided into many evaporation ponds, and the waterwheel must be equipped with wind power, and he can find Caiya to cooperate, and Yoshida agrees that Naohide thinks that Yoshida may misunderstand that he and Caiyaya are colluding, but the explanation is that the more the description is darker, let it go.

Because of the good breed thing, it's a bit of a straight show

The mood is low, Yoshida and Yamauchi also see it, so Yamauchi suggests that Oguri and Naohide be invited to visit Aki-gun, and Naohide agrees.

Leaving Toranosuke to guide the firing of cement, the group began to tour the mountains and rivers.

"I'm Yajiro Iwasaki, I'm a samurai master, if you pariahs are not honest, I'll cut you" A drunken man stood in the middle of the road and screamed, and a woman and child stood cramped and restless beside him.

"Don't pull him aside soon", Toyonobu Yamauchi felt ashamed.

"It's okay, it's okay, drunk people dare to trade with monsters", Naohide hurriedly said to resolve it.

Yamauchi wanted to leave as soon as possible, but Yoshida insisted on asking, so everyone followed to see the excitement.

"I'm sorry that my father was drunk and made big noise, which disturbed the nobles. If there is a punishment, Yataro is willing to bear it on behalf of his father. "In the house of the farm, the drunkard was so frightened that he could not speak, but his son stepped forward.

Shoya, as the head of Iguchi Village, has made the reason clear that the drunkard is called Yajiro, because his father sold his identity as a villager, so Yajiro lost his identity as a samurai, Yajiro is angry about this, and when he gets drunk, he often pulls people to let everyone call him "Lord Iwasaki", because Yajiro is stingy and mean by nature, and the villagers often take the opportunity to mock him, which often happens today.

"Send it to the commission center and detain it", Yoshida Toyo is the most important and very unhappy after hearing it.

This frightened the cowering woman to tears, and she pulled the child and kowtowed and begged for mercy. "The lord is gracious, the lord is gracious".

"Is the fine possible" Naoxiu had to speak out to dissuade her, because Yingzi couldn't see this the most, and she was pulling Naoxiu's sleeves vigorously.

"But, a fine of ten taels." Yoshida casually changed the verdict Naohide recently suggested to Yoshida to learn from Kyushu Island to grow early rice, raise chickens, ducks and white birds and geese on the beach and river beach, and promised to find someone to underwrite, counting Yoshida owed Naohide a lot of favors before and after, and Yajiro did not bring a knife, and he called himself a samurai after drinking in the village, which is big or small, Yoshida took the opportunity to sell Naohide a favor.

Yingzi saw that the clothes of the drunkard's family did not look like they were rich, she "secretly" stuffed a money bag into the woman, and everyone pretended not to see it, and the matter passed after paying the fine.

The house was given up to the adults to live in, and the family was quickly called to prepare food and drinks. Today, Yoshida sold Naohide's face, Naohide usually doesn't drink much, but this time he had to let go of the amount of alcohol and laugh with everyone, and drank until the end of the moon.

Dizzy from drinking, Naoxiu had to run out to release water, and Leng Buding found a person kneeling outside the courtyard, which startled him. The guard hurriedly ran over and told Naohide that this was the child Yataro during the day, and he wanted to see Okushi, but he couldn't get rid of him, Yataro too

Without shouting, the guards were left to him, and he wouldn't pass it on to a country kid anyway.

As soon as Naoxiu heard that he was looking for Yingzi, he called the child into the courtyard.

It turned out that Yajiro was so scared that the six gods didn't know what was going on, but after returning home, he forced his wife to ask his wife where the money came from, and Mijiro said that the nobleman gave it, of course Yajiro didn't believe it, so he started to do it, until his son Yataro testified again and again. But Yajiro had a crooked mind again, and after going out to investigate, he heard that the nobleman was staying overnight in the village chief, and he forced his wife to find the nobleman to intercede to restore the identity of his hometown, and Mijiro was angry and cried, but Yajiro still refused to give up, and the child Yataro ran out hoping to meet Mrs. Yingzi. But Yataro didn't know Eiko's name, and the samurai didn't report it for him, so he had to kneel outside the courtyard.

"I'm Naohide Hori, and it's my wife who gives your mother money during the day. Yataro, what do you want to beg me to do" Naohide looked at Yataro with a grin, seeing what this kid said, if it was a plea to restore his samurai status, with the name Yataro Iwasaki, Naohide was also willing to help.

Listening to Naohide's words, the twelve-year-old Yataro's heart pounded, he knew that this was a great opportunity, and whether he could grasp it or not depended on what he said. Since childhood, my father has not been worried, my mother is cowardly, I read and learned with my grandfather, I like to read history the most, I dream that I can be famous one day, I don't know how many times in private I hate that I was born in such a family, but now the opportunity is in front of me, but I can't say anything if I am ready.

"Please be gracious and help the Iwasaki family restore the name of the villagers, Yataro will not hesitate to go to the soup for the sake of the adults." In this case, the moonlight shone on Naoxiu's body, and Yataro, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly lost confidence. Crying, begging, I saw how many villagers around me were begging and pleading, but Kan Dingfang and Ashigaru still took away their last bit of rice and last piece of clothing, that is, their grandfather, who had always been kind to him, still coldly refused the request for medical treatment in the face of the bitter pleas of the families of poor patients.

The majestic appearance of the adults during the day suddenly appeared in Yataro's mind, and he could decide the life and death of his family with a word, and ambition suddenly burned in Yataro's chest at this moment, "I want to get ahead", this idea has never been clearer than at this moment.

"Yataro" He thought of a sentence like a ghost, but as soon as he said the beginning, he was interrupted by Naohide waving his hand.

"I have a private school in Kochi, so if you're interested, follow me. I'll visit tomorrow, go home now, and don't worry my mother. Naohide handed Yataro a small judgment and touched his head with a smile.

Yataro grew his mouth, held the small judgment in his hand, and watched Naohide walk back to the house in a daze.

"Lucky little ghost", the guards kick Yataro out of the door.
