Chapter 54: Three Exam Questions

"The first question is about military affairs. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe main family is going to build a branch castle south of Kishiwada Castle in case the Miyoshi Army lands from Kii Province and attacks from the south. In your opinion, where is the best place to build this castle in Izumi? Why? ”

"The second is the government aspect. Before I came here to take up my post, I received an order to 'shut down law-abiding temples and shrines, and those who violate them will be punished.' However, many temples and societies have the privilege of not losing or entering, and they cannot be easily neglected, so how to distinguish which temples and societies should be given security and which ones should not abide by the law and should be crusaded? ”

"The third question...... Maybe it's a little hard to classify. I have a new business policy that will be implemented in Izumi Japan, except for Kaimachi. You can take a look at this draft for details. However, some retainers feared that the locals might not be able to accept the new policies for a while. As the son of a merchant, can you find a way to dispel this fear? ”

The three trials were not made up out of thin air as exam questions, but they were indeed real problems faced by the tie, and they were also affairs that would soon be implemented in the Izumi Kingdom, and they would be published within ten days, and I was not worried that saying them would affect any "major military and political affairs".

Of course, if the person in front of him really wants to deliberately leak it, the ninjas in the city are not vegetarians.

The answers to these questions can be shallow or deep, and anyone with some insight and eloquence can answer them in general terms, but it is not easy to get to the point.

Since it is a real problem, it is always much more complex than the ideal situation on the test paper, and it is impossible to arrive at the best answer by a single measure, but must consider the pros and cons of all parties and make trade-offs.

There are even some topics that are not mentioned in the title, but you can think of them on your own, with deeper hidden meanings.

For example, in the case of the construction of the castle, it was said that it was to "prevent the Miyoshi Army from landing in Kii Province and attacking from the south", which was high-sounding. However, those who care about the situation and have a certain understanding of strategy can see that this reason is a bit far-fetched. How, then, if you don't want to defend against the Miyoshi Army, what is the purpose of building a branch city in the south of Kishiwada Castle? Which enemy is it to guard against? And more importantly, why should that force be seen as an enemy?

If the governor of Konishi in front of him is really as smart as he was in the original history, he must not simply stick to the problem itself.

Therefore, Tie Fan Xiu is not too demanding, as long as this young man can give a satisfactory answer to any of the three questions, he can pass the test.

You don't even need to really offer a practical solution, you just have to be on the talk, quick to think, and be able to see the potential of the individual.

It's just that before I heard the question just now, Konishi Yukinaga, who boasted that he wanted to solve all three questions, began to look not very good.

At first, he was still full of ambition and high morale, but after listening to these passages one by one, his expression gradually became serious, and he frowned in contemplation.

Governor Konishi still knelt in place, but sweat gradually appeared on his head, and his eyes showed a look of falterness.

The boy did have some brains, and he immediately turned the corner.

The three questions add up to only 200 words, and it is not difficult to give an answer on paper. However, there are many attitudes towards neighboring diplomacy, businessmen, and traditional temple and community forces, which are far-reaching.

Hirate honshu observed Konishi Yukinaga and roughly assessed the other party's qualifications. Then I inadvertently turned my eyes and saw another guest in the room, with a similar expression, thoughtful and slightly hesitant.

As a member of the Oda family, Kinoshita Koichiro naturally had access to much more information than Konishi Yukinaga, the son of a businessman, and he naturally had more specific associations because of Honhide's words.

Fortunately, Koichiro has never regarded himself as a wise man, but has demanded himself in the spirit of "dull learning and hard work" and "stupid birds fly first", and has always been cautious in politics.

So he didn't think too far ahead.

The policy line of the Oda family is decided by Nobunaga's hall. The local administration of Izumi Province is the responsibility of the Hisho Adult. Kinoshita Koichiro only cares about how to deal with the external environment, help his brother establish meritorious deeds in the position of Kaimachi, and make the name of the Kinoshita family more and more resounding.

But on the other hand, Koichiro Kinoshita is a very benevolent and righteous person. Since he has received the favor of the son of the "medicine house" Xiao Xi family, he will try his best to help this little son achieve his ideals.

Hideyoshi, who served as the commissioner of Kai Town, although he had a lot of authority and influence in government affairs, had few troops under his command and could not give a position such as a major ashigaru general. Then Koichiro took his brother's letter of recommendation and went to ask for the new guardian Daihete Warden-sama.

Unexpectedly, this Tieshou Supervisor is really extraordinary, neither caring about the generous gifts prepared by the commercial house, nor teaching martial arts, learning, etc., but giving Konishi Yuki these three questions that are difficult to say and easy to say.

Kinoshita Koichiro pushes others for himself, and feels that he may not be able to satisfy the unparalleled equal-minded adult on these three issues, although Konishi Yukinaga, this young man is precocious, but after all, he has no experience, and he must need help. Anyway, there is no shortage of this person in Kaimachi.

What's more, he also felt a little moved by those three questions, and couldn't help but want to test his talents.

So he spoke:

"Lord Supervisor, I think Yajiu (Konishi Yukinaga's common character) needs some field investigation and intelligence collection before he can answer better. Can you allow me to help him for a while? ”

"Oh?" Hirata was slightly surprised, "Then Koichiro, don't you have to go back to the world to help Brother Ling?" ”

Kinoshita Koichiro replied respectfully, "My brother, it's not that he needs people all the time, and he is not in a hurry. ”

"That's it...... That's fine. Fan Xiu pretended to think deeply for a while, and didn't feel that there was anything wrong. It would be even better if he could take the opportunity to pull Koichiro under his command.

Then he nodded quickly and said, "It's limited to ten days." I will send ten more men for you to send, and in the meantime I will try to find people or information, but I will definitely draw conclusions within the time limit. Because in ten days I will be in public government, and my answer will be self-evident. If I can't be satisfied with any of the issues within the deadline, I won't be able to make an exception. But if you still want to be a samurai, I can let you start with Ten Stones. ”

These words naturally made Governor Konishi sweat even more.

Seeing this, Fan Xiu felt as if he had put too much pressure on the young man all of a sudden, and he thought too much about it, so he added:

"If I have insight, I don't hesitate to use it. If there is one of the three, it will be hired, and it will be included in the side of the public. If I can make my eyes shine on three issues and propose a better plan than I expected...... "Fan Xiu deliberately slowed down the pace, "Thousands of stone seals, why not?" ”

Inspired by these words, I finally saw the rekindling of fighting spirit in the eyes of the young man Konishi Yuki.

Even Koichiro Kinoshita was a little eager to try it after being surprised.

……

After Kinoshita Koichiro and Konishi Yukicho withdrew, Hiteshu waved Hattori Hideyasu and ordered him:

"Send someone to secretly follow these two people and see where they will go in the next ten days."

"Yes!" Hattori knelt down to receive the order, and immediately turned around and flashed away.

If it was a month ago, I would have been a little dissatisfied with receiving this kind of task that was not very important at first glance, and I was in a hurry to compete with the Nakamura Ichiclan. But he was recently reminded that he had made a big mistake in dealing with Iwanari Yutong, so how dare he pick and choose at this time.

Seeing that the other party took the order without complaint, Fan Xiu felt a little comforted.

Years of performance and what has happened recently, all things considered, the Hattori brothers are really embarrassed, and I am afraid that they will only be responsible for some general tasks that do not require brains in the future. But whether it is from the perspective of internal stability or emotional factors, the tie does not want them to fall.
