10. My uncle advised me to become a monk
On the third day of Hamamatsushita's festival, Tsunara's uncle rushed over. He also knew a little about the messy things in the mansion city.
After a brief conversation, I talked about my current opinions. Uncle Tangliang always seemed to want to speak but stopped, as if he wanted to say something, but he could never say it.
Finally, he sighed and began to ask Xiaopingtai about the financial calculations of his family this year. The expenses are getting bigger every year, and the rate of income increases far from the rate of increase in expenditures.
At that time, Yamauchi Yoshiji looked a little short of food. Later, several major wars and years of mobilization, the national strength was too much to be damaged. He damaged his vitality and did not have strong men to plant it, and the harvest was much less than before.
Ina County, which was originally a large granary, was so anxious that Yamauchi Yoshikazuki died, Takeda sent troops to fight. Tens of thousands of people fled south, and the crops in the fields were just the time to serve them. The famine was brought down, and they suffered from it year by year, and the more they were owed.
"The situation around Hamamatsu is slightly better. After all, relying on Hamamatsu Lake, it is all good paddy fields. As long as you are willing to put fertilizer strength, it will not be too bad.
As for Ermata, the silt fields near Tianlong River can be harvested immediately, and it has grown pretty well this year.
The embankment must be repaired, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with any danger in the future.
There are also paddy fields along Tianlong River, which may have some problems this year.”
Uncle Tsunara was talking about the news about Hamamatsu near him. When he heard that the paddy fields in Hamamatsu were well harvested, but the paddy fields in Tianlong River were a little worse, Xiaoheita waved his hand to interrupt Uncle Tsunara.
"What's going on?"
"The dozens of households by the river are from Yamanet."
"Um?"
Xiaoheita suddenly thought that when Yamauchi Yoshiji defeated the coast of Denlong River, in order to increase the dominance of the Yamauchi clan over the local territory, the thirty households in Bashan were strongly placed on the riverside by the public and military service members.
On the one hand, we gave the newly occupied top-notch paddy fields to the public's military service members the most reassurance. On the other hand, because the rush industry was started at that time, the top-notch Tamsui triangular rush could only be planted in the flood discharge area of Tianlong River. Yamauchi Yoshiji took care of his own people, so the migrated Yamauchi was all by the river.
But in the beginning of spring, Xiaoheta first conquered Sanhe and then Musashi for the entire spring plowing period. In more than a month and a half, the main force of Hamamatsu were fighting. On the contrary, the local peasants were recruited on a large scale when they conquered Musashi, and their spring plowing was over halfway through.
"Is the impact big? Can it be remedy?"
"After all, it's paddy fields. As long as the weather is better this summer, the impact will not be too great, but it will always be less than in previous years."
"Wait, uncle, please pay attention and see how much it has been reduced?"
If Xiaopingta sat in the mansion to collect taxes, the annual amount of rice tribute is almost certain every year, and as long as there is no large-scale disaster, it will not change. No matter how much you produce, you can only collect rice according to the amount in the form of knowledge, action, or the document on the name and field.
At that time, I could not feel the actual grain output, and I could only understand it with my own eyes.
"I know, I'm afraid that I'll have to lose 10% or 20% this year. Life is not easy!"
"You have more than 3,000 stakes of knowledge and action, and you still have some savings." Xiaoheita knew that the lower class was devoted to the public and the life of the military service members was very ordinary now. But as the first retainer of the genealogy, Uncle Takayoshi, who is the first in knowledge and action in the journal, Xiaoheita also needs to inquire about the specific situation.
"As for savings, I still have some, but if I continue to supplement it every year, I will not be able to use it even if I have a mountain of gold."
Uncle Tsunara thought about it and didn't say it clearly, but it was indeed difficult to handle the difficulties in the past two years. Xiaopingta could hear from his words a little tired.
In the Hamamatsu area, I have a rough understanding of the situation in Xiyuanjiang, and Xiaopingta is also preparing to go and inspect it personally.
They didn't bother to let Tsunara's uncle break his ankle and rest. After lunch in Hamamatsu, they didn't let him rest for more, so they went to Higato-toe Makino and Suruga Shitago to inspect the defense and summer harvest along Oikawa.
Due to historical reasons, most of the places here were originally directly under the Imakawa clan. Later, they were captured by the Yamauchi family and disposed of them to Imakawa Yoshinori. However, although they were all the territory of Imakawa Yoshinori, Imakawa Yoshinori had been fighting outside for more than half a year or handling affairs in the mansion for more than half a year.
Imakawa Yoshinori didn't have enough teams. Apart from the surrendered ministers of Imakawa, there were only a few or two of the remaining officials of Harayama. Therefore, the trusted officials he appointed were actually not in the territory. Most of them followed him to deal with things in the mansion, and there were only two or three kittens in the territory.
In fact, the two people were guided by Takatoshi Temple Yoi Iwase Motomasa. Koheita had something to do this time. When he was in Kawaakashima, he saw Iwase Motomasa envious of Akiro Kanei's body, so he wanted to give him all.
There are always many things to do. This time, when the Nanman ship arrived at the port, he simply bought a half-breasted plate armor for sailors and a pair of iron guards, and gave it to Iwase Motomasa. Iwase Motomasa wanted to refuse at first, but he really couldn't let it go. After pushing, he chose to take it away and happily asked his family to match other parts.
"How is Shita's year like this year?"
"Junzhou is still OK this year. I have to ask His Highness Yuanjiang for the specific situation, but there were two winds blowing in the beginning of spring, which had some impact."
"The Yuanjiang Palace should be leaving the mansion one after another, and I almost have to come back to collect the annual tribute." Xiaopingta nodded.
"Fujiro, please remember to pay attention to the recent harvest of Takagishin this year and write me a note."
"Okay, I got it."
After the Yuanjiang country was completed, Xiaopingtai knew that as long as there was no accident this year, there would probably be too many deficits.
As long as there is enough food and a year of truce, with the ability to make a fortune in the mountains, you will be able to breathe next year. If you can cultivate for two more years and not fight a battle, you can save some money and food a little.
But this is also thought about it. Takeda Haruno is also cultivating. After he raised it for a year, he digested the Eighth Prince and would definitely come out to continue to expand. Although the Jinshan Mountain of Kafa is good, there are too many places to spend gold, so how can it be used?
"Xiaoheita, are you going back now?"
"Yes, I have to sort out the summer harvest when I go back."
"Then you send a letter to your family and take a look at your sister and brother."
My sister is naturally a real sister, and my younger brother is actually my eldest nephew, and now he lives in the mansion.
"Uncle, don't worry, everything is fine. When did you start to be like this mother-in-law and mother? Hahahahaha..."
Seeing Uncle Tsunara's rash talk, Xiaoheita felt that his uncle was really old. Although he was only forty-six, he always felt that his relationships were getting richer and richer, and his time spent considering his family increased greatly.
"Xiaoheita, why don't you become a monk?" Uncle Tsunaliang was a little solemn.
Chapter completed!
