Chapter Eighty-Eight: Learning

The political system of the Fire Nation continues the system unique to the shogunate period, but adds some new elements to show its legitimacy.

In the aristocratic class in the country of fire, the big name is the head, followed by the upper three secretaries and the lower three secretaries, who should have the position of general, but considering that if the general is established and the government is opened, it will inevitably remind people of the rule of the shogunate era, and they can only cause trouble for themselves, so the big and small countries in the entire ninja world do not have the position of general. The upper three secretaries were in charge of the three major departments of the military, the government, and the finance, while the lower three secretaries were in charge of the three major systems of civilian, construction, and agriculture. They exist like ministers, and they are the kind of ministers whose power is in the hands of one person, except for the daimyo, who is the greatest.

Under the upper and lower three secretaries, there are retainers, elders and fathers. In fact, in the order of ranking, the ranking of the public should be listed before the retainers and the elders, after all, the public means the nobility. But thinking about it another way, although the retainers of the daimyo did not have prominent official positions, they accompanied the daimyo every day, and when it came to the influence of the daimyo and the potential political power, it was greater than that of the public family, so the public family came last.

Sugihisao is one of the three kings, and he was able to get to know Orange Light because of Orange Light's connections and money that played a key role. Under the matchmaking of friends, Orange Light wields a golden rod and gets acquainted with Sugihisa Shigeru, and there are offerings every year, so naturally the two have become "friends".

After inquiring about the fact that the Sugi Shigeru people did not see any guests today, Orange Light took the Holy Kingdom to meet the Sugi Shigeru people, and the reason why he did not bring Qingchuan was that Orange Light also had his own considerations.

After all, this kind of thing is not a very nice thing, and people outside will not pay attention to Orange Light's own opinion, they will only identify Orange Light's behavior as bribery. Whether this kind of relationship between officials and businessmen is normal and pure, each has its own opinion. For Orange Light, this may not be very noble, but at least it should be an act of purity. It's like a transaction, he paid for the wealth, bought the guarantee, paid the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other, isn't it pure?

But for the average person, this is impurity. Using money to buy off the government gives the green light to his business, no matter what business Orange Light runs, there will always be people who want to use it as an excuse and handle to attack him.

So Orange Light didn't bring that relatively simple guy from Qingchuan, and only brought Zaohui to the holy kingdom like a demon. This is also paving the way for the Holy Kingdom, weaving a network of relationships for him, and gradually copying his connections to him.

When Sugihisgeru heard of Orange Light's visit, he immediately asked his servants to lead the two into the house, which was a high-class inn that had been chartered.

"Brother Orange Light, don't come unharmed? Speaking of which, I haven't seen him for more than half a year, but my brother is still glorious! In the face of the three generations and the group of people, Sugiku Shigeru did not take the initiative to stand up, when he met Orange Light, he actually took the initiative to stand up. He actually knows some secrets, but he doesn't tell them or share them with others. Of course, standing up is enough to show his friendship with Orange Light, and he doesn't need to greet him.

Orange Light bowed very directly, "I took the liberty of visiting and disturbed the rest of Duke Sugiku." ”

"Hey, what are you talking about, come on, sit down." He pointed to the left-hand position and asked Orange Light to sit down, but his gaze stayed on the Holy Kingdom. He looked at the Holy Kingdom carefully, and couldn't help but praise, "What about a very calm young man, it's your adopted son, right?" He smiled kindly at the Holy Kingdom, "It seems that Orange Light has a crush on you, little one." ”

Orange Light immediately introduced him to Sugihisa Shige, "Your Excellency, you are right, this is my adopted son, but I treat him like a parent, his name is Ren Wuyue Holy Kingdom, and he was also one of the martial artists earlier. Then he faced the Holy Kingdom and gave him a look, "This is one of the Upper Three Secretaries of the Fire Country, Master Sugihisao, who is in charge of the conquest of the Fire Country!" ”

Immediately the Holy Kingdom prostrated its head and called it Lord.

Sugihisa Shigeru's mouth couldn't close when he smiled, "Oh, it's just a child, just call your uncle, why bother with this big gift?" He glanced at the orange light with disgust, and said in a loud voice: "Get up, get up, sit next to your father." ”

The Holy Kingdom said yes and sat down beside Orange Light.

At this time, Orange Light took out a box from his bosom and asked the servant to hand it over to the Sugihisa Shigeru, "The Secretary of Sugihisa lives and lives in a prosperous place like the Daimyo's Mansion, and I am afraid that he enjoys much more things than this backward place. I don't know what you like, so I can only pick out some gifts and ask the adults to laugh at them. ”

The box is exquisite, one foot long, half a foot wide, and two fingers thick, and it is extremely heavy to start. Sugihisao immediately opened the box, and it was indeed nothing strange inside, only a book bound in thread. Books are not expensive books either, and what is recorded in them is probably some of the customs and customs of the Fire Country, which is not a great gift. But Sugihisa Shigeru was overjoyed, and laughed out loud, "Brother Orange Light, bother! As he spoke, he closed the box and nodded, "I like things very much, I like to read." ”

Then the servant picked up the box and took it away, and the atmosphere in the room was extraordinarily harmonious, and the eyes of Sugihisao Shigeru looking at the Holy Kingdom were even softer.

Sugihisao is a very good talker, and with Orange Light's active flattery, the two of them talked a lot of messy and meaningless things in the sky, and they didn't talk about specific things at all.

At the end, Orange Light said something.

"I plan to hand over the family to the Holy Kingdom in the future, and I'm worried that he is not capable enough, I heard that Tianfeng Temple is going to recruit new people at the end of the year, I don't know if you can ...... it", Orange Light said Here he closed his mouth, in the face of such a high-ranking and powerful person as Sugihisao, he couldn't say it to death, which left steps and face for both sides.

Sugihisao nodded, "This matter is wrapped up in me, I will write a note when I go back, and then let the Holy Kingdom take the note to Tianfeng Temple, and naturally be able to enroll!" ”

Compared to a ninja village like Konoha that has a school, education in the outside world is still in a primitive state. It is often passed from father to son, from son to grandchild, and there is no school where children are taught properly, and of course this has something to do with the social structure of this world. On the one hand, ordinary people can have enough to eat, meat to eat during the New Year's holidays, and it is good to be able to add a few sets of clothes every year, but there is no more ability to let a laborer out of production and spend a lot of money to learn knowledge.

In addition, there is no imperial examination system in this world, and there is no civil service system, and the appointment of officials is entirely assigned by the superiors. Even if you learn, you don't have a future, so there are fewer people who learn.

But if it's true that there are no schools, not really. In fact, in this world, some temples often become school-like places. Literacy is taught in the temple, some basic ideas and philosophies, as well as the knowledge of how to behave in the world.

Don't think that studying in a temple is a very simple thing, most of the people who come and go in the temple are powerful people, not to mention the high tuition fees, not everyone can enter it. Tenboji Temple is located on a mountainside called Banliang Mountain, about 20 miles northeast of the Daimyo's Mansion, and it seems to be a retreat, but in fact it is just that. The education level of Tianfeng Temple is quite okay, generally speaking, the study lasts for two years, and when the time comes, it will catch people.

It won't be easy to learn, continue to pay the money, and study for another two years. With this method, the monks of Tianfeng Temple are living a comfortable life in this troubled world.

In fact, it doesn't matter whether you can learn in Tianfeng Temple, what matters is those students and their backgrounds, which is why people want to send their children into it.

After achieving the purpose of his trip, Orange Light and the Sugi Shigeru people talked for a while before leaving the hotel in the warm retention of the Sugi Shigeru people.

On the way back, Orange Light suddenly said, "Do you understand? ”

Shengguo thought for a moment and nodded, "I understand!" ”

Orange Light smiled with satisfaction, in this way, the Holy Kingdom will not suffer a loss during his study in Tianfeng Temple!
