Chapter Thirty-Eight: Governing the Country and the Family

Soon after the wedding, it was up to Hirate Fanxiu to marry his younger sister Hirate Kiyoshi to Oda Nobunaga's younger brother, Oda Nagayoshi. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info this is also waiting to officially tell Owari up and down, and the newly established flat family is already the first-class family of Owari. When her stepmother asked what kind of person Oda Nagaki was, Fanxiu replied to her according to the historical impression that this was a person who could protect the family even in the midst of storms. In troubled times, this is no easy talent.

The head of the family married the daughter of the Oda family as the wife of the main house, which made the retainers very excited. As for whether the tie pan show can be good at dancing left and right with long sleeves, this is not considered. Moreover, for the lord of a city, only two women is really not much.

Then before he had time to spend his newlywed honeymoon, Fanxiu threw himself into the reconstruction of the territory.

In view of the lack of young and middle-aged people, the irrigation and cultivation of farmland are very tight, and it is difficult to build water conservancy in the short term, so Fanxiu encouraged those who only have dry land in their households to reduce the planting of low-yield upland rice, and wait until the season is right to cultivate peanuts and corn, two drought-tolerant crops. Judging from the current market, these two crops are still rare, and they can be sold at a high price when they are made into confectionery snacks in the prosperous places of the Kaimachi generation. It's not a long-term solution, but it's enough for the next few years. At the same time, these two kinds of coarse grains are relatively easy to preserve, and can also be used as military rations for emergencies. Attempts to raise livestock are also underway.

Then there is the resumption of production and the reconstruction of the destroyed buildings, but there is no way to do it, and it can only be done one by one. Originally, it was a major transportation route, but in recent years, there have been many joint wars, and merchants have long stopped patronizing the area, and even if the favorable conditions are removed, it may be difficult to attract merchants to come. However, his old friend Yukoshi Sanshiro was quite righteous and opened an izakaya and a forging house under the city to supply hundreds of soldiers in the city. In recent years, Yuyueya has obtained the status of a royal merchant under the recommendation of a tie, and has repeatedly seized business opportunities before the war, and his wealth has increased several times, and his relationship with Tieshou Fanxiu has become closer and closer.

Ordinary samurai, such as the three and the forces that Fanxiu is coming, most of them spend their leisure time sharpening their martial arts or learning the art of war, and rarely pay attention to the role of internal affairs. Even Shibata Katsuya Niwa Nagahide only takes measures when there is a problem in the collar. Now Fanxiu is actively seeking innovation in internal affairs, and this skill has become a typical characteristic that distinguishes him from others.

It's just that when Tie is struggling, the neighbors to the east are not idle. After Imagawa Yoshimoto was killed in battle and succeeded by his son Shin, Matsudaira Motoyasu of Mikawa returned to Okazaki Castle and began to have new ideas, he first tentatively asked Sunfu Castle for war, and put forward his desire to avenge Yoshimoto, and after receiving no positive reply, he concluded that the prestige of the Imagawa clan was not enough to control the Three Kingdoms, so he unscrupulously recruited and annexed the wealthy forces near Nishimikawa, and the territory was expanded by two or three times, with two or three thousand soldiers to fight. At the same time, he bought war materials on a large scale, declaring that he would independently attack the Oda family.

With Fanxiu's vision, he naturally knew that he was fighting for the purpose of promoting unity through war, but his own territory was the first to bear it, and he was afraid that he would be attacked head-on. With the current strength of the Matsudaira family, the time to accumulate troops will not be too short, and it is estimated that after four or five months, the troops will be officially dispatched after they have completely settled down. On the one hand, Fanxiu let the three forces strengthen their training, and on the other hand, they should try to accumulate strength. In order to make up for the shortfall in military spending, it can be said that they racked their brains.

At the end of April, when the samurai were busy, Tamagoshi Sanshiro suddenly rushed from Tsushima's commercial town to Tsukake Castle.

"Did you hear that the zygote was about to give birth, so you rushed over?"

Fanxiu is still very satisfied with this.

"Half of that."

"Oh, and what about half of it?"

"From Cheongju City, I asked for a new identity."

"Is it to join the Oda family?"

This result is not difficult to guess, unless the merchant is rich and rivals the country, the status cannot be compared with the samurai, so those inferior local chambers of commerce will often pay a certain price in exchange for the protection of the samurai. Funnily enough, some merchants actually went to the battlefield with their soldiers after becoming samurai, only to die there in battle, and their family business also declined.

"Omamoru Owari, agree to let me belong to your command and be a samurai of the Hirate family?"

The ranks of the Oda family's direct ministers are naturally not so convenient to intervene, and it is more appropriate to be a courtier, but ......

"That highness isn't like such a good talker, Thirty Lang is breaking the bank again, right?"

"It's just a Southern Barbarian bell!"

"Hmmm......"

Fanxiu nodded slightly.

"But with the relationship between you and me, this kind of truth is enough to write a letter!"

Anyway, it's just a name, so why bother to arrive in person?

Thirty Lang stared at the flat hand and shook his head slowly.

"What I mean below is that in the future, I will exhaust the assets of the Yuyue family and achieve your hegemony in the Prison Palace."

Fanxiu's right shoulder shook slightly, and then relaxed, with an indispensable look on his face.

"Thirty Lang! This is not a casual decision, and besides, what kind of hegemony do I have......"

"The Prison Palace!" Tamagoshi Thirty Lang eagerly stopped Fan Xiu's words, "Last year's joint battle, you helped Oda defeat the powerful Imagawa without using a single soldier, which proved your talent; Reject the Chiyuki of the Imagawa family, which proves your ambition. So I'm willing to attach my tail to Yuyue Thirty Lang! ”

After saying that, Takugoshi Sanshiro took out the list of all his shops and forging houses, and held his hands flat in front of him.

The draw pan show couldn't help but be moved.

The Yuyue family has been operating in Owari for one or two hundred years, although it is very rare to show its wealth, but the accumulated property will never be less, coupled with the rapid development of the past few years......

The Yuyue family went to a trough a few years ago, and it happened to catch the express train of the Oda family's development with the help of Fanxiu;

Thirty Lang's cousin happens to be the side room of the tie, and a child is about to be born;

Although the Oda family was prosperous, there were already too many people who did business in the name of retainers, and there was no room for latecomers;

The businessman in front of him also happens to be a long-term and decisive person;

And this samurai did not discriminate against the merchant trade, but attached great importance to it;

The most important thing is that the battle that has just passed has spread the name of the Tokaido and the whole world.

If one of the above conditions is missing, there will be no such scene.

However, history is caused by all kinds of accidents.

"If Thirty Lang said so, why should I pretend to hesitate?"

Yuyue Thirty Lang was overjoyed, and Zhengse knelt in front of him, smoothed the folds on his shirt, and bowed down to give a salute.

"Lord!"

"No need to be polite!"

"I have prepared 8,000 yuan in cash, in addition to 20,000 yuan worth of shops and physical goods, which can be used at any time."

That being said, Fanxiu obviously wouldn't do anything to kill chickens and take eggs, and Yuyue also knew this, so he boldly expressed his scheming.

"Let's not talk about these things for now...... Fanxiu waved his hand, beckoned Thirty Lang to sit over, pointed to the wooden strips and cloth bags that had been fiddled on the ground, and asked:

"Does Sanshiro think there is a business opportunity for this?"

Yu Yue looked at it carefully for a long time, only to realize that this thing was a small folding bench, made of crossed wooden strips and thick linen. Fusang adheres to the Tang style, and even tables and chairs are not commonly used in daily life, let alone this portable small bench?

After thinking for a moment, Yu Yue nodded violently.

"The price is 20 to 40 wen, and it is very practical for both farmers and low-ranking samurai. Just ......"

"How?"

"It's too easy to be imitated."

Fanxiu shook his head and said:

"As long as we launch it first, we can sell a lot, and when others imitate it, we won't make it anymore."

"The Lord is wise. This thing-"

"I came up with it to earn some military spending."

"This matter is incumbent upon me."

"Naturally, I'm going to leave it to you to sell. In addition, do you have any familiar Nanban (i.e., Western) merchants? ”

"I know a merchant ......"

"Then hurry up and arrange for me to meet him!"

"Yes."

At that moment, a maid suddenly ran up.

"Your Highness, Mrs. Zygote is about to give birth!"

Isn't it ten days early? Pan Xiu, who strictly counted two hundred and eighty days, was slightly surprised, as for the medical point of view, this is not premature, it is not understood by inexperienced amateurs. But fortunately, the midwife had already been invited, and she asked a few nearby women to accompany her.

According to the custom, men are not allowed to enter the delivery room, but they are too anxious to wait outside......

Listening to the intermittent screams, Fanxiu couldn't help but want to rush in several times, but he was worried that it would cause further chaos.

Pangu Hongjun, three clear and four royal, such as the Buddha, no matter which great god, your old man bothered to throw the contemptible people here, you will not deliberately want to see the tragedy, right......

"Thirty Lang!"

"What's the matter, Your Highness?"

"Talk to me about a game."

"This, my subordinates are really not good at this."

"It's okay to pass the time!"

"Yes......"

Fanxiu picked up a white piece and put it directly on top of Tian Yuan.

Even if you don't know much about chess, you can't help but cry and laugh.

"My lord, if the retainers see this......

Tamagoshi Thirty reminded quietly.

Fan Xiu was stunned, and then smiled.

"Yes, I lost my temper."

Then he looked at the chessboard and smiled bitterly, and moved the pieces to the corners.

When the retainers heard the news and arrived, they were already ten sons ahead on the board, and it seemed that this Yuyue Sanshiro was really not good at Go, and he knew almost nothing except basic knowledge.

Kawada Kuro's eldest relative, who arrived at the beginning, saw Fanxiu's demeanor, as if he was very pleased, and stepped forward:

"Your Highness, in the past, we were worried that you were too pampered ......"

The words stopped abruptly, and Fanxiu glanced at him expressionlessly, and then focused on the chessboard again.

The expressionless face is an expression in itself. Just as not taking a stand is an attitude in itself.

Kawada stood in place for a moment before falling to his knees.

"The subordinates have exceeded the rules, please condemn the crime!"

Fanxiu ignored him.

When the Hattori brothers and Hirano Nagaji arrived, they all looked at Kawada who knelt down and pleaded guiltily, but they didn't dare to ask.

Matsui Yukan is no different.

Asano Nagayoshi seemed to open his mouth to ask something, but was pulled by Ji Yin, who was tied hand.

Two little guys, the recent relationship is not bad!

The thought drifted elsewhere, and it was won back by Yuyue Thirty Lang, but he didn't care.

"Get up."

Fanxiu didn't raise his head, "You're not selfish!" ”

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Kawada bowed vigorously before slowly getting up and retreating into the distance.

At this time, a baby cry suddenly occurred in the room.

"Your Highness, mother and daughter are safe!"

Ning Ning hugged her daughter and ran over excitedly.

"Hmm."

Fanxiu's face was calm, and he responded lightly, stepped forward to take the baby, and his skillful movements surprised the onlookers.

The newly-born children have no difference in appearance, but looking at Fanxiu's eyes, they feel more and more pleasing to the eye. After waiting for the next person to finish disposing of the filth, he immediately walked into the room with his daughter in his arms, and stepped forward to hold the hand of the zygote.

"It's so hard for you."

"It's a daughter......

The zygote was happy and there was a little regret.

"What about my daughter? I just want a daughter! ”

This sentence is completely sincere, if the side room gives birth to the eldest son, it will be really troublesome for the martial family!

Just thinking about this, I saw Oda Inu standing far away, and his eyes seemed to be envious, as if he wanted to come over but didn't dare.

At this time, the commanding maids and maids were Ning Ning's girl.

It seems that the worries are not all unreasonable...... How can the blessings of Qi people be so enjoyable?
