A tour of Japan's Warring States Period

Chapter 9 9. If you want me to farm, there is no such thing

Returning to the riverside village in the valley, to the original and natural thatched wooden house, his strange home still brought some comfort to Xiao Pingtai.

Koheta did not regret rejecting Hosokawa Michimasa's call. If it was Yamauchi Yoshiharu's direct subordinate Ashigaru, he might still agree, but he would have no interest in being a subordinate.

However, after a bad battle, there are always fifty or sixty kilograms of rice, a similar amount of miscellaneous grains, five or six guan of money, and both short swords and long spears. He will definitely not starve to death for at least a while.

However, as a tenant farmer, wheat would be planted on the village chief's land in a few days. The sowing had been delayed for several days due to the bad war, and Xiaopingta didn't want to go digging in the mud again. Really, this kind of farming land is not that kind of farming land. There is no protagonist in those farming novels who personally goes to the fields to plant rice seedlings. I’m afraid he can’t tell the difference between leeks and wheat seedlings.

It's a pity that Xiaopingtai did not have a good identity in time travel, and his mind was full of agricultural and water conservancy engineering technology, handicraft production methods, and countless good methods.

In mindless novels, you can meet a wild Oda Nobunaga or Takeda Shingen on the roadside, and again you can meet a daimyo worth 180,000 koku. You, a pariah, don't kneel down to greet him, but you still dare to stand with your head up and greet him. When he speaks, does it sound like you have a strong character? Why didn't I kill you with a knife?

He just said something casually and was immediately appointed as the general of the family, with a salary of five hundred stones. Did you have soy milk or jelly in your head last night?

But wake up, stop dreaming. A person whose annual income is less than five thousand dollars is not even shit in the eyes of the lord, and there is no possibility of him seeing the lord to give advice. Don't think my words are unpleasant, my words are rough but not rough.

How noble is a warrior's status, serving a general? Anyone who is not mentally ill will know that among Takeda's twenty-four generals there are a handful of ashigaru generals. The ghost Minohara Huyin had been fighting for thirty years, and had dozens of holes all over his body. In winter, he was rolling on the ground in pain and dying. The castles captured could not be counted with both hands and feet. In the end, an ashigaru general was killed. Hojo Ujiyasu said that one person is better than a hundred military commanders, but he is only of this level. You can climb on top of them with just a touch of words, and you can only hehe.

Let’s think about the oil seller Saito Douzan, the needle seller Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and the self-made Hojo Soun.

First, let’s look at the oil seller. Oil was not a cheap commodity in ancient Japan. It was a luxury product sold exclusively by dealers. Saito Douzan can participate in the oil business because there must be someone above him, or the family is rich enough, or both. Both.

Although the status hierarchy during the Warring States Period was not as solidified as it was during the Edo Shogunate period, he was eventually able to become the adopted son of the Mino guardian Dai Saito clan. This was not an adopted son within the body (Kagekatsu was like Kenshin, whose mother was a sister of Kenshin). ). An adopted son either comes from a powerful or famous family, or he is defeated and forced to adopt him. It is self-evident which case Nagai Norihide belongs to.

After Toyotomi Hideyoshi's father died, he split up the family with all the money he had and went out to sell needles. It was obviously a vulgar plot in which his sons robbed the family property after his death. Others can make Toyotomi Hideyoshi walk away with consistent cash, proving that at least the cash is several times this. Otherwise, Toyotomi Hideyoshi would be let out so easily?

For a family with a lot of money, you should know that at that time, you could not get a loan to buy land or a house. You thought it was like now, and you would be crazy to pay for it in installments. To be able to separate the family and get so much cash, the family must have considerable wealth. Combined with the Miao character Kinoshita, it is very likely that he was a rich farmer with an income of more than 20 guan, just like the village chief of Xiaopingtai.

Moreover, he initially worked as a retainer for Oda Nobunaga and left anecdotes such as warm straw sandals, proving that at least his family background was innocent. Can a leader want a foreigner of unknown origin? What's more, he is still an attendant who hangs in front of his eyes every day, and now he is the driver of the leader. He can't wait for his nephew to be his nephew. What can a person who doesn’t know the basics do?

So at least from his father's generation, he had been the kind of person who fought in bad wars with Nobhide and left a name on Oda's military service account. Otherwise, why would he be chosen as a follower? The Warring States Period was a time when poor people could not even die in the front row.

Not to mention Hojo Soun, Ise Shinkuro's famous name, Ise is the Miao character of the shogunate.

Hojo Soun, who himself had been a shogunate Shinjishou, hugged Imagawa's lap again. Relying on Suruga's territory to conquer Izu, he had his own place to stay. Later, following the footsteps of the shogunate, he gradually expanded his strength in political and military struggles, and finally left Ujizuna with the family business of both countries.

If you compare it with Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin, he will definitely not be able to compare with him. Compared with Kodaira, he is simply a superior second-generation rich man and a second-generation official.

So, how can anyone really start from scratch? The basic foundation for starting a business is at least ten times and a hundred times stronger than that of Xiao Pingtai.

So Xiaopingtai fell into deep thought. It was impossible to be a farmer, and I didn't know how to do martial arts. I had to find other ways to maintain my life.

The deposited manuscript is 150,000 words, which is very stable, please rest assured!
