Chapter 246: Castle Town Reconstruction

In the council hall of the Luo family lord's mansion, Masara is giving a task.

"Kuniji Onishi, Tsuda Hiromune, Hirasa Masatada, Tadajiro, and Sun Goro" After ordering the task of intelligence gathering, Masarashi ordered loudly again.

"Hi" Several retainers who were called responded one after another.

"After the assessment of the five of you, immediately return to their respective teams, step up the training team, I will personally go to inspect these days, but there is slackness, and the punishment will not be spared."

"Yes, Your Highness," several people solemnly received the order. From the orders of the head of the family, several people smelled the smoke of war.

"Roche Sasuke, Roche Masahide, Roche Shigoro, and Shuna Tong" Masara looked at a few young generations who had not taken the initiative to speak today.

"Hey!" Sure enough, it was a young man, and even Ying Nuo's voice was much more high-pitched than the few retainers just now. It is estimated that the gatekeeper at the gate of the lord's mansion can also hear their cries.

"You must be responsible for the work of your respective teams and prepare for mobilization. At the same time, it strengthens the connection between the various teams," Masahiro appreciated their high-spirited outlook.

After receiving Zhengliang's order, several people also received the order excitedly.

Later, Zhengliang ordered Mingfeng Xiuzheng to immediately go to Master Xuanru in the territory of Zhongxiao Temple, and follow Master Xuanru to learn simple handling of battle wounds. And Ah Guda was asked to take his two Hai Dongqing to walk around the territory, so that his two Hai Dongqing could familiarize themselves with the terrain and landform as soon as possible. Xingsuke arranged to immediately tidy up the territory warehouse and prepare for trading with Wang Hai and the Nanban. Kinoshita Masanao was assigned as the deputy commander of the First Standing Ashigaru Brigade, under the command of Tadajiro. The heaviest task is Shigemasa Yoshida. He will immediately organize all the bows and arrows and samurai in the territory, and then practice the arrow formation.

After the task was issued, all the retainers took the order and left. Masato left Togo Heiji and Liu Le alone.

"How many immigrants have emigrated from Ming this time?" Zhengliang looked at Liu Le and asked.

"Your Highness, there are eighty-three people including children. Among them are three firesmiths, three archers, one firesmith, and one swordsmith," Liu Leyu reported.

"Well, Heiji, you can arrange to open up a vacant land on the south side of Nogao Mountain, and the land on that side will be used as a settlement place for Ming immigrants in the future. Immediately organize manpower to build shelter for them. materials are unified with those burned bricks. Their fields should also be distributed to them immediately," Masashi said.

"Yes, Your Highness" Even if Masashi doesn't tell you these jobs, Togo Heiji will arrange them.

"I left you two this time because I have something to discuss with you," Masarashi said after a pause. "I'm going to renovate the village under the Ichibanno Takayama and turn it into a town. What do you two think? ”

"There are already nearly 3,000 people in the village, and it really needs to be transformed into a town," Togo Heiji nodded in agreement. With the increase in the size of the village's population, the current size of the village can no longer adapt to the growth of the population. More importantly, with the continuous expansion of the Luo family's territory. As the birthplace of the Luo family, this place will definitely become one of the centers of the Luo family in the future, so it is necessary to build this place more decently.

Liu Le on the side also nodded in agreement. He was the first to report, and he was indeed not very familiar with the situation of the Luo family. And the gun shot the first bird, before finding out the character of Togo Heiji, an important minister of the Luo family. He was also reluctant to say more, lest he offend the other party.

"The marching avenue leading to the territory in all four directions is now nearing completion. As a meeting point connecting these four avenues, the streets here are a bit narrow," Masarashi continued.

"How is Your Highness going to transform?" Togo Heiji asked.

"Look here," Masaria pointed to the sand table in the corner of the council hall. …,

"This is Nogao Mountain," Masarashi said as he walked to the sand table and pointed to the small sand peak that represented Nogao Mountain, "First of all, move all the villagers on the west side of Nogao Mountain to the south. In the south, new village houses were built according to certain requirements. Later, the south side was used as a settlement place for the villagers. ”

"Your Highness, do you want to divide the area of residence?" Togo Heiji asked.

"Hmm. Samurai houses were built around the foot of Notaka Mountain to guard the lord's residence on the mountain. On the left and right sides of the perimeter are the residences of ordinary townspeople and immigrants from the Ming Kingdom. The samurai, ordinary townspeople, and the areas of Ming immigrants are all connected by a wide avenue," Masa said, nodding his head.

"And what about Simon?" Heiji Togo continued to ask.

"The original western avenue will be expanded, and the open space near the Notakayama side will be unified as a market, and there will be grain houses, sake houses, fish houses, fruit houses, oil houses, salt houses, vegetable houses, sweet houses, and cloth houses," said Masahiro. The rest of the houses were immediately announced, and the people themselves would run them," Masarashi said, saying the layout plan he had already thought of.

Dongxiang Heiji picked up the pen and paper that the little surname had just sent and quickly recorded it.

"If so, on the other side of the avenue. After the villagers have moved to the south, all that remains is the Chunghyosa Temple, which has been built, the Luo Clan Dokan, which has already begun to recruit apprentices, and the shrine that is currently under construction," Togo Heiji continued. The shrine was built on the advice of the monk Xuanru on the basis of the original small farm of the trial of the gods, and since that time when Masarashi held a miracle prayer meeting there, it has become a sacred place. And Matsumiko, known as the "goddess", will stay there. With Matsumiko's move-in, the domain's property rental and bereavement management agencies to support the self-reliance of the people will also be relocated there.

"Hmm," Masarashi nodded, and then said, "In addition to these buildings, there will be a new forging house, a carpentry house, a lumber house, a craftsman house, and a recruiting house on this side. ”

"Craftsman's house?" Dongxiang Heiji was a little surprised, as the old minister of the family, he knew that all the workshops of the Luo family were concentrated in the canyon where the lord's mansion was located, so why did the owner of the family build a working house here?

"The craftsman house is only used to recruit all kinds of craftsmen, and anyone in the territory who thinks they have a skill can come and apply here, and once hired, they will be well paid," says Masahiro. Although the policy of post-registration has been introduced, it is equivalent to conducting a census. But there is a downside to this policy, which is that if the person who is registered does not want to say, you will not be able to know the specific skills of the person. Maybe there is a craftsman with good skills who has become a leader of the Luo family, but because of various scruples, he did not say it when he registered, then it will be a loss for both the craftsman and the Luo family.

But now a craftsman house has been built. Those hidden craftsmen who have fully integrated into the territory will have a chance to shine again, and the Luo family can also benefit from it. Why not kill two birds with one stone? (To be continued......)
