Edo Traveler

  Chapter 339 42. The general office meets Oguri

  No, it's so easy to have such a direct clue, it's absolutely impossible not to follow it down. Chuemon felt that he was close to the answer, so he didn't check it at this time, but waited when.

  There is such a good shogunate, which divides the premises. All the Kimoto royal family, Kimoto has a big mansion, the royal family has a long house, and all have residences divided by the shogunate. So there are records of each of the 23,000 families. Just go to Wakamoto who manages the banner and the general practice who manages the construction and ask them to show this record to Chuemon, and they should be able to find it.

  Even if the records from a hundred years ago cannot be checked, the problem of checking records from decades ago should not be too big. I was afraid that there would be a big fire in the middle, and the records of decades ago would be burned. That would be the answer to the heavens and the failure of the earth.

  Hurrying back to the table, all the people in the table greeted Chuemon, and Chuemon rushed to the place of Puzhengshi. He did not alarm Puzhengshi, but greeted the servant below. They said it was just to check the samurai house in Akasaka. For a small question, I took Chuemon and his party directly to check.

  The samurai who managed the documents hesitated for a moment. Both left and right said that it would be convenient for Chuemon Gate, but he stopped insisting, and he personally led everyone in, looking for the records of the Akasaka area.

  Tadaemon also saw the scroll with a note of his own name hanging. It was the long scroll that Enomoto Takeshi transferred the old house of Tanuma Yoji to the name of Chuemon and re-written it. The house has changed five owners now.

  The sharp-eyed Sukeruku saw the name of Chuemon, and took a look at it, "So you live in that house, it's still the old residence of Tanuma Saragou!"

  "Sagarahou?" Shigefu Zhongjiao also turned his head and took a look.

   "Who is inside?" Several people were watching, and suddenly a question came from outside the door.

  No way, so coincidentally, someone comes to round the room? Chuemon just didn't want to ask someone to ask for help and wasted time. Secondly, he wanted to owe one less favor. If you ask Tuoruo Nianzhi and Puyou to follow through, you still have to make an appointment, and then wait for the reply, and then invite them to have a banquet meal, and finally say a lot of rounds of words to say the request. It is too troublesome.

  But in this world, the more you want to pursue a shortcut, the less you can pursue it. It is even possible to take a shortcut and spend more energy and more trouble.

  The two little officials who led the way turned their heads nervously, but a very young warrior walked in, and the two of them immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Hastily stepped forward to greet him, and then introduced Chuemon and his party.

   "Queen of foreigners Kake Edogawa-sama and Togumi-sama and Rikanmaru want to check the Akasaka area, the master of 60 years ago."

   "Sixty years ago!" The samurai who entered was taken aback at first, and then he felt impolite, and did not say hello to Chuemon.

   "In the next place, I would like to ask the main group in the prefecture (the head of the maintenance and repair construction of important buildings under the Edo Castle and nearby) Oguri Tadashi, everyone, well."

What!

  Tadasun Oguri!

  Tadaemon could not help but take a few more glances. This old man was called the "Father of Meiji", and he advocated the construction of the Yokosuka Shipyard and Iron Works. He was a pragmatist in the shogunate.

  There is also a legend of him on the Internet of later generations, saying that he went to the United States to visit the shipyard in the United States. The Americans laughed at the shogunate, saying that the shogunate could not even make a screw. When Oguri heard this, he picked up the screw and made up his mind to help the shogunate build a steel ship to resist the influx of foreign powers.

  Tadashun Oguri, who returned from the United States, immediately served as the Minister of Finance of the Shogunate. He was appointed to pursue and manage the shogunate’s finances, and began to build a series of military industrial enterprises in an attempt to revitalize the shogunate.

  But because this person has a somewhat stinky temper, he usually doesn't give a person face when he speaks, and even Tokugawa Kyoshi is just as mocking. Therefore, there is no very good popularity, obviously not like Sheng Haizhou who will be a courtier.

  The new government forces entered Edo, Sheng Haizhou was made Earl, and Oguri Tadashi was executed without trial. Everyone thinks that he is in charge of the shogunate's finances, and there must be a mountain of gold and silver in his family. As a result, he rushed into his house to make a fortune, but found that Xiaoli’s family was innocent, dilapidated and poor.

  Finally, I found a brocade box in Oguri Zhongshun’s bedroom. I thought it was a peerless treasure, but when I opened it, it was an ordinary screw.

  This dear man is only twenty years old this year. He is very young, even a lot younger than Chuemon. There is no beard on the lips, and he is very thin, but the waist is straight, indicating that this person is in good spirits.

  "In Shimoedogawa!" Chuemon and others also met in order.

  "Why do you want to inquire about the nominee of each house in Akasaka sixty years ago?" Obviously, Oguri Tadashi was not going to investigate several people who inquired about the records without permission, but was rather curious.

  "Involved in a family search..." Zhuroku hadn't finished.

   "Is there a secret case?" Oguri Zhongshun's eyes popped up with a small star, and suddenly lowered his voice, his face full of joy.

  Wow, at this age, he was originally a college student who had just entered university. Don't look like he was working as a construction director. He belonged to the middle-level official of the shogunate. Maybe the job was mainly decided by the family, not because of Oguri Tadashi's talents. In the boring work, I suddenly heard Conan from the famous Edo, Bah, it is the wisdom of Edogawa-sama who is inquiring about things, and it is you and you are also excited.

   "It's also a case..." Chuemon was slightly embarrassed.

   "I live in Akasaka, what is the specific address?" Oguri is very enthusiastic ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Higashijujo-koji near Akasaka Hie Shrine. "

   "There is no such place."

  "It is only necessary to query the name master record sixty years ago."

   "I will help too."

  A bunch of people found the records of the Akasaka area and began to scramble. Tadaoemon's mind was distracted instead, he glanced at Oguri Tadashi. This old man is a **** shogunate, but he is still a talented person who is willing to introduce advanced Western science and technology. The point is that he is willing to learn it himself.

  If all the overseas students are sent to use the low-status prince’s children, even if they return to the country after completing their studies in the future, they will not be able to immediately rise to a high position. On the other hand, Tadashi Oguri, who has a family name of one thousand and several hundred shi, is different. Their family is from Mikawa Wubaiqi, who has served Tokugawa Ieyasu since Mikawa, and his family is very good.

  As long as you return from your studies, you will be able to take up such important positions immediately and participate in the administration of the Shogunate. No one can say that it is not. Now he is still hidden among the middle-ranking officials of the shogunate, shall we give him a hand?

  Sent him to England to study machinery, mining and shipbuilding technology. When he comes back, Chuemon will be able to have a good helper in the development of modern industry.
