Chapter 4 The village is responsible for the weight of the position
During the Kamakura period, the main responsibility of the "deputy officials of the insurance department" was to monitor the law and order and hunt down thieves, but since entering Muromachi, they have gradually begun to meddle in some civil tasks, and it is still one of the most important tasks to maintain law and order and arrest lawbreakers.
In other words, since Gao Shisheng has become the acting official of the insurance department, it is inevitable that in the future, he will often have to deal with these "Lang Party gatherers" who are on the edge of the Imagawa family's law and are tempting. Besides, in many matters, he has to rely on each other in turn, and it is not a bad thing to get acquainted with each other earlier.
There are only four people left in the courtyard: "Baoji Acting Officer" Gao Shisheng, "Gate Holding Clerk" Murono Heizo, "Fu Thief" Aoki Daizen, and "Errand Officer" Kitajo Manjiro.
The four of them were not familiar with each other, so they all kept silent unconsciously, and the scene fell silent.
Murono Heizo was honest, and he only wanted to do business in his heart, so he picked a conversation when he saw the cold scene at this moment, and spoke first: "Before Lord Noyama Right Guard left, he had an explanation, saying that after the high security division came, he could deliver all the records of the village, and the insurance division would accept it now?" Or are you watching it after a meal at night? ”
Hearing this, Gao Shisheng also understood what he meant, took out a copy of the confession and road certificate from his arms, handed it over, and said with a smile: "This is the certificate of appointment given to me by the county guard. The clerk first checked to see if there were any errors or omissions, and then it was not too late to hand over the official documents. ”
The acting official of the insurance department, although he is a small official, is also an acting official of one party after all. It's better to say if the locals are in office; If it is a non-local officer, how to prove it depends entirely on the post and the road. The person's place of origin, appearance, etc., are written in detail to prevent someone from impersonating. - This is not without precedent, the most famous is Gen Yoshitsune, when he was on the run, passing by Awaji and being interrogated by the general of the customs office, he pretended to be the retainer of the retainer Musashibo Benkei, evaded inspection, and finally passed in confusion.
When Murono Ping was three years young, he worked as a novice in the temple for a few years, studied Sinology with his master, read Mongolian books such as "Thousand Character Text" and "Shishuo Xinyu", knew words, and his education level was much stronger than the two rough people next to him who could only dance knives and guns. ”
···········
Murono Heisan led Gao Shisheng to the outer room on the north side, went up the steps first, opened the entrance door, and introduced: "After the right soldier of the wild mountain left, we cleaned up the house again, and the head of the village felt that there was a shortage of objects, so we went to do it again... On the left is the second room, and in front is the wrap. ”
After Aoki Daizen saw Gao Shisheng, he wanted to turn around and go back to his room, but his disciple Kitazhuang Manjiro secretly tugged at his sleeve to prevent him from acting recklessly, so as not to harm Shinzhuangtou. The two of them suffered a lot because of such things before.
Although Aoki Dashan is like this, it is not that he can't listen to people's persuasion, seeing that his disciples insist on insisting, he has no choice but to follow behind everyone with a cold face, and he enters in one stream.
The floor of the house is covered with large stacked mats, or tatami mats, woven from rush, which are soft and comfortable to step on.
Facing the door, with his back to the wall, there is a desk, behind which is a niche, which is also a couch for sleeping at night. There is a hanging landscape painting in the middle, there is no money and stamp, Junfu gathered a lot of down-and-out ministers, Xu is this ink treasure out of the hand of the palace nobleman who does not want to be named.
On the left side is the board room, which is usually used to store the most cherished items of the owner, and in the case of samurai, it is common to display items such as swords, hoods, and tea sets. The illegal shed on the right side comes from the Song Dynasty, and it is mostly a place to place some decorative objects.
At this time, the board room was empty, and the previous personal belongings were taken away by the former Zhuangtou Yeshan Right Guard, which was convenient for Gao Shisheng to place his belongings. There are a lot of miscellaneous books piled up in the shed, it can be seen that the former owner is also a studious person, a few brushes are placed on the pen stand, and there are inkstones, paperweights and other things, which are neatly placed.
These stationery supplies are purchased at the Junfu expense, and they are issued once every six months, which are usually not enough, so they have to be bought by themselves.
Next to the couch, in the corner of the wall, there are two boxes made of bamboo reeds.
Although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of organs. As a daily living residence, not only the place is big enough, but also the living facilities are also very complete, although it looks a little shabby, but Gao Shisheng is very satisfied, this specification of the samurai house has been very high-grade, the village is located in the Yuanjiang, the three rivers of the junction of the two countries, often on behalf of the three rivers of the country of the pilgrimage, Junfu only deliberately allocated funds for renovation, otherwise Gao Shisheng even if it is the head of the village, at most it is just a small longhouse.
Murono Heizo first invited Gao Shisheng to sit down, and then beckoned Aoki Daizen's master and apprentice to help, and the three of them moved the two boxes to the side of the desk, and opened them, which were all kinds of sorted files, written on mulberry paper. Each volume of documents has been simply processed by craftsmen, the texture is tough and wear-resistant, can be preserved for several years as new, and is very suitable as a writing paper for writing dossiers, but the disadvantage may be that the color is yellow, and the price is expensive.
He took out the top scroll from the box, put it on the desk, and said, "These are the documents of Honjo over the years. Some of them are pleadings issued for the villagers in the past, and some are edicts and official documents conveyed by the Junfu. ”
As the most widely distributed grass-roots government office, the shogunate not only posted important announcements of the shogunate's protection, but also kept the vouchers issued by the people after serving the general service.
The first thing Gao Shisheng did when he took office was to check whether there were any omissions in the various service petitions for the year, and then write a handover document back to Junfu.
If there is something missing, the Junfu side immediately began to send someone to check, if what is said is true, the rest of the process of how to deal with it has nothing to do with Gao Shisheng; However, if there is no objection to the handover document, if there is a problem in the review at the end of the year, even if it is a mistake by the predecessor, Gao Shisheng himself will be fully responsible.
Gao Shisheng glanced at the dossier, and the expanded part began with the words: "Please don't ask for the following ·······"
Since the administration of the country, in order to recuperate the people's strength and show benevolence, there are often pardons for military money, especially after every disaster, even more so, last summer's heavy rain caused the flooding of the Tianlong River and other rivers in the Yuanjiang country, destroying a lot of fertile land, and the people on both sides of the river were displaced.
The damage in Fukichi County was relatively light, and the number of eligible people was small, and most of the people were only exempted from the don't pay for the building, and they still had to serve the general labor, after all, the renovation of the roads and farms that had been washed away by the flood also required enough manpower to be completed on time.
Gao Shisheng looked at it generally, there were a lot of files in the box, I am afraid that he would not be able to read them in a few days, and he did not plan to take a closer look in front of the three of them, and said with a smile: "It is getting late now, and it is not too late to read these files tomorrow." ”
In fact, it was just before the time came, and there was still a long time before it got dark, but since he said so, the three of them, as subordinates, were not easy to refute, and Murono Heizo said with a smile: "Yes, yes." "Put away the unfolded files, tie them with straw bands, and put them back in the box.
Gao Shisheng was approachable, did not hold a shelf, stepped forward to help with three people, and the two of them worked together to move one and move the two boxes back to their original places.
Stretching his muscles and bones, Gao Shisheng said: "I heard my uncle say that today there are monks of the Pure Land True Sect near the altar to preach the Dharma, not to hide the three, I have also been reciting Nan Wu Amitabha Buddha with my family since I was a child, if there is nothing to do, please be a guide for me, take me to pay homage." ”
Heizo Murono and others are indispensable.
As soon as he came out of the backyard, he stepped into the front yard with his front feet, and a person stumbled and ran through the door in a panic, shouting, "Oh no! It's time to fight! The monks and soldiers are fighting! ”
Note 1: In addition to the protection of the two countries, Imagawa Yoshimoto's official positions include the official positions of Kamisuke and Daisuke.
Note 2: During the Warring States Period, each daimyo would be exempted from various miscellaneous taxes to a greater or lesser extent according to military service and natural disasters, but it is difficult to say how much they were exempted and whether they could be actually implemented.
Perhaps the most stable and popular tax revenues were the daimyo of Hojo, Imagawa, and Asakura, who were the first to become more Sengoku daimyos, with unified skills, no need to fight for a long time, and waterways to trade to earn money.
Note 3: The Pure Land Shinshu is one of the famous "Douzong" strong temples, the other two are Nichiren and Rinzai, the former burned the Yamashina Honganji Temple of the Ichisho sect, the latter repeatedly led monks and soldiers into Kyoto Hong (beat) Yang (smash) Buddha (rob) Dharma (burn), persuade (fear) the people (intimidate) to (chao) good (curtain), a Hugh brother is the high monk of the Rinzai sect, but also personally took a knife to the field, persuaded the thief to be good, and robbed the bandits 4466 across the road.
In the region, there is only one person from my temple!!
Others, such as Shingon Koyasan Kongobuji Temple and Tendai Sect Hiei Mountain Enryakuji Temple, also belong to the famous treasure temple mountain where good fighters have great martial arts.
It was really a punch to a Kyoto nursing home and a foot in a Nara kindergarten. No one has ever seen the palm technique that fell from the sky, and the fifty-meter-long naginata knife physics is excessive, and everyone must practice.
Note 4: It is not clear whether mulberry paper was used on a large scale in the Warring States period and what the quality was, but mulberry paper has been used since the Han Dynasty, and it was not completely withdrawn from the historical stage until the Republic of China period.
Note 5: The Tianlong River, the largest source of water in the Yuanjiang Kingdom, often floods and causes flooding, but because of this, the land on both sides of the river is fertile and suitable for farming.
Whether there was a heavy rain in Tokaido in the first year of Eiroku, whether the Tenryu River flooded on a large scale and caused a flood, the scattered people do not know, and the novel jokes are not true.
Note 6: One of the eighteen Kabuki "Persuasion into the Account", it deduces the story of the beef balls fleeing through Awaji Province and being searched by the generals under the sick brother, a very good artistic theme, but it is a pity that a well-known painter only paints European stories, and he is willing to seek the near and far, and he is willing to seek the near and far.
