different warring states of japan

You know, Takada Haruno ran to Sakai Port with nothing, built the Hokurikudo trade route, established the Shiba food stamp system, and became the powerful boss at the core of the Shiba family.

Although Takada Haruno is now disgraced by the financial crisis, her qualifications and affection are strong enough. If she rashly touches someone else's cake, will she be retaliated against in the future and die an ugly death?

But since the saint has shown him the information about Sakai Port, it means that the saint is very dissatisfied with the problem of Sakai Port. This is giving himself a chance to show off.

Do you want to perform? Of course you have to perform!

Dazang Changan's eyes twitched, his pupils dilated, and he breathed heavily.

She claimed to be talented, but because she came from a family of monkey musicians in Yamato, she was scorned by the Iga Maeda retainers and was squeezed out of the opportunity to display her talents.

It was Maeda's mother and daughter who recognized talents and gave her the opportunity to come to Kanto to serve as the saint's attendant. This led to the glory of her establishment of the Wu Family Giri Promotion Association.

But now, Dazang Chang'an, the accompanying minister, has been forced to resign and is guilty.

If she really went back to the Iga Maeda family in despair, even if the Maeda mother and daughter still valued her, how could those Maeda retainers who once rejected her give her a good look?

A grown-up woman cannot eat five pots of food in life, and she will be cooked in five pots of food even if she dies!

There was a sharp light in Dazang Changan's eyes. She needed this opportunity. Even if there was a fire pit in front of her, she would jump down without hesitation.

In this martial arts society with clearly defined classes and orderly hierarchy, one's origin almost determines a person's upper limit, and the opportunities to break through the ceiling are very few.

Dazang Changan finally got an opportunity and resigned sadly. If she does not seize the second chance given by the saint, she may not get a third chance in this life.

With no way out, how could she not seize this last chance?

In just a few breaths, Dazang Changan had already thought it through. He held his head high and spoke about his views on the Sakai Port Rebellion, trying his best to express himself in front of the saint.

"I believe that the problem at Sakai Port is not serious."

Yiyin looked at her deeply.

"Oh? Tell me."

Dazang Changan bowed slightly and said.

"There is a cloud in the sky. The whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's ministers.

Since the Yashiro Shogun Rebellion, the world has been in chaos for a hundred years. To this day, the Kinki samurai family all know that the shogunate relies entirely on the support of saints. Only when saints are in charge of the world can the shogunate be in order.

Since a saint is in charge of the shogunate, there is no need to worry about some disorder in Sakai Port. "

What Dazang Changan said was vague, but the meaning behind the words was already exposed.

Since ancient times, agriculture, industry and commerce, the saint has brought the Kinki samurai family home. With the handle of the sword in his hand, why do we need to worry about the business chaos in Sakai Port?

In the final analysis, political power relies on violent institutions to maintain power. How can the founding monarch control the military power and overthrow a group of businessmen? impossible.

This is like a country with ten aircraft carriers crisscrossing the world. Its military expenditure is higher than that of all the countries in the world combined. So what if it defaults on its debt? If you are not convinced, come and hit me!

Yiyin narrowed his eyes.

Dazang Changan's flattery was well shot, and it seemed to hit the point, but it was useless.

Doesn’t Yoshigan himself know that he is strong in force and that the issue of Sakai Port cannot shake his own power? Do you still need to talk about this matter from Dazang Changan?

If we just rely on violence, the matter will naturally be solved, but the food stamp system will inevitably collapse. Therefore, the key to the problem is how to continue to maintain the credibility and operation of the food stamp system. Food stamps are a good thing. The Spo family can exchange a few pieces of papyrus for real money in the hands of others, and tie others to their chariot.

Yiyin is reluctant to throw away such a useful financial tool.

The Shiba family's economy relies heavily on the financial function of the food stamp system. The Shiba-Oda War relied on the powerful financing channels of food stamps to siphon a large amount of resources and forcibly used money and food to stun Oda Nobunaga.

Once the food stamp system is abandoned, the Shiba family will still be invincible even though Yiyin himself is there to control the situation, but the Shiba family's economic system will degenerate into the traditional samurai economy.

What is the traditional economic model of the Wu family? They are just poor people who rely on the weather for a living and save the land tax, but cannot accumulate much capital in a year.

The economy is the foundation of finance, and finance is the regulator of political power.

In the farming era, land was the most important means of production. Whoever controlled the land would have stable financial income.

But on this barren volcanic island, the plains that are good for farming are criss-crossed and divided into countless fragments by mountains formed by volcanic eruptions.

Even the Kanto Plain, which has the largest cultivated land area, is only a small territory in the eyes of the entire island nation, and does not have the overwhelming economic advantage to fully suppress other regions.

In other words, the geography of the island country is inherently insufficient and it is impossible to form a central government like the Chinese Empire. Even if it learns from the Chinese system, it cannot replicate the success of the Chinese Empire.

The vast North China Plain and the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River plains were connected, forming an overwhelming economic advantage that could radiate throughout East Asia and become the strongest centralized dynasty in the agricultural era.

What about island countries? It has a fart!

The Kanto Plain cannot suppress the whole country, and the other scattered small plains have no hope of dominating the entire island.

The final result is that the local forces in the island country can easily govern themselves behind closed doors, and the central control is weak, and they can easily fall into civil strife and hegemony.

In front of Yiyin, there are three ways now.

First, continue to follow the traditional path of the Wu family and use their own force to suppress local areas.

Then after his death, the Shiba family declined, and other forces rose up to challenge the Shiba family again, entering a new cycle of the rise and fall of the Wu family.

Second, after conquering the world, he tried his best to weaken and suppress other forces.

Through one country, one city, and other political means to go to Luo to see the emperor, the local military and financial resources were weakened, causing the local area to fall into poverty and hardship.

Since the central government cannot have an overwhelming advantage, it can be considered an effective strategy to continuously weaken the local strength and make the local governments unable to resist the central government.

However, local forces will fall into increasingly impoverished situations due to the central government's exploitation, and their hatred of the central government will become deeper and deeper.

This is tantamount to lengthening the fuse of the bomb and delaying the explosion, but one day it will lead to a total explosion of conflicts that are extremely suppressed, with disastrous consequences.

The third is to use the food stamp system, a silent method of spring rain, to continuously draw blood and take away their wealth in a financial method that the martial arts family in the medieval era could not understand.

The Spo central government can get financial supplements, but the local forces are poor but can only blame themselves for not working hard, forming an economic state of strong branches and weak branches.

As long as the Sibo family's food stamp system operates well, the entire island's finances can be used to support Sibo, creating a lighthouse effect like Sibo's dream, siphoning wealth and talents to serve the Sibo family.
