A tour of Japan's Warring States Period

Looking at the high-spirited Yamauchi Yoshikatsu, Koheita also felt like he was in another world.

It has been many years, and the years are passing really fast. Everything is so real and yet so unreal.

"Xiao Ping Tai, although you have made up for the implementation of the survey, there is no need to go to war, just to be safe." Yamauchi Yoshikatsu had his own political considerations.

"I understand, I will obey Jun's order!" Xiao Pingtai promised softly.

The current task is to completely sort out the total income and total expenditure of the Yamauchi clan's territory. Yamauchi Yoshikatsu's request is not that Koheta immediately increase his income by any amount, he only wants to be safe.

To put it more darkly, he would just wait until his father burps before he talks. If he doesn't, then he shouldn't interfere with the financial foundation he inherited.

Xiaopingtai thought that you felt so, and you were prepared to do so. But God will not give you this opportunity!

The Little Ice Age sweeping the world is becoming more and more severe. Typhoons and heavy rains in Kyushu West Country will become stronger every year, and droughts and floods in Shinano East Country will also get worse year by year.

If we rely entirely on farming and collecting agricultural taxes, our finances will collapse sooner or later. In another twenty or thirty years, Japan's Eastern Kingdom will experience continuous droughts and floods. During drought, the ears of millet and other cereals cannot be pulled out. When there is waterlogging, all the rice will be drowned.

There will also be accompanying plagues, locust plagues, fires, fevers, and countless disasters will follow, eventually causing terrible political crises in the East and the West.

The bourgeois revolutionary movement in England was surging in the West, and the two wars to suppress the rebellion in Scotland dragged on for a long time. King Charles I finally died, and Britain embarked on the path of global expansion.

Under the control of Cardinal Richelieu, France actively acted as a troublemaker in Europe and successfully divided the German region and caused chaos. The glorious era of the "Sun King" came with severe climate disasters.

The Habsburg dynasty was defeated in the struggle between all parties and lost the opportunity to unify the entire Holy Roman Empire. However, with the efforts of Prince Eugen, Habsburg's basic base was preserved and a small renaissance ushered in.

In the Ottoman Turkish Empire between East and West, a huge rebellion broke out during the Little Ice Age that almost swept the entire country. However, with the efforts of Murad IV, the leader of the ZTE, the rebellion was finally suppressed and unity was restored, but it inevitably went downhill.

The two great empires of the East, the Mughal Empire of India, and the magnificent Taj Mahal will be built. But Shah Jahan's successive years of expansion and militarism, as well as Aurangzeb's wrong religious policies, finally pushed the empire into the abyss.

Finally, there was China. The big empire was invaded by foreigners. The so-called "straight women" destroyed the big empire with a small one and captured the huge empire at an incredible speed. In the end, Emperor Sizong also hung a crooked neck tree to declare the last great empire. The fall of the unified Han dynasty.

The West is rising! The East is sinking!

At this time, if Yamauchi Yoshikatsu still retains the old-fashioned mentality of a small farmer, he can just get by. Then God will definitely teach you how to be a good person!

Innovating agricultural technology is not something that Xiao Pingtai can do alone, even if he has the will to do so. As for changing the climate, that is even more impossible. This is not a fantasy novel.

Some people traveled through time and went to the north of Dameng, digging deep wells to get water. Anyone who talks about cross talk knows that the eighteenth year of Chongzhen was nine years of drought and nine years of floods. It can rain heavily for nine years, but if there is no water, it will be waterlogged to death.

As for the nine-year drought, do you really think everything will be fine once the water is supplied? That strong sun can kill the seedlings in your field. Agriculture depends on the weather, and the role of manpower in it is too small and insignificant. Anyway, to put it bluntly, agriculture will basically be hopeless in the next few decades.

However, Xiaoping Tai's complaints can only be expressed in his heart and cannot be exposed. How does Yamauchi Yoshikatsu know about the Little Ice Age? Although the situation is getting worse year by year, life can still go on despite fighting bad battles.

Since he can continue, don't expect him to have any thoughts of "Our journey is the stars and the sea!"

Taichi Xiaoping had no way to alleviate the various difficulties caused by the severe weather that followed, and he was not that capable. Since Yamauchi Yoshikatsu told him to just continue working step by step, then just listen to the boss and do it.

Anyway, they were all existing processes and methods. Xiaoping was too lazy to worry about it, so he directly transferred Pingliu, first assigned to Nian Gong's accounting, and promoted to the head of imperial accounting. Then Kurosawa Yoshiki, who has no relatives in the whole mountain and only one eldest sister, was assigned to the expenditure review calculation and served as the team leader for the royal calculation.

Yamauchi Yoshikatsu asked Koheita to take charge of financial power, Koheta then asked Heiroku to take care of income, and Kurosawa to take charge of expenses. The boss assigns tasks and the juniors work, layer by layer, with a clear division of labor.

Furthermore, Heiroku is a man who doesn't like money but loves power. He only cares about getting promoted. If Xiao Pingtai inserts him into the appraisal office, he will definitely try his best to use Xiao Pingtai's tiger flag to seize the annual tribute accounts. inside.

Kurosawa Yoshiki was previously responsible for the clerical work in the castle town of Yamauchi Prefecture. This time, he was not allowed to take care of the actual data calculations and was left responsible for supervising expenditures. It shouldn't be anything difficult for him. After all, there are very few professional mathematical talents in this era, so that's all.

Doing everything by yourself and working hard is not Xiao Pingtai's style. As long as the leader can catch the boss, it will be fine. After instructing the two younger brothers to work hard, Xiao Pingtai left with peace of mind.

Because Xiaoping had more important things to do, he divided all the money he earned last time and spent it, leaving only more than 7,000 guan in the end. Now we need to use it to build a mansion worthy of our status, otherwise the father-in-law and mother-in-law will not let their daughter get married.

Of course, there were house transactions in this era, but it was difficult to get a homestead, or a homestead under the city of Yamauchi Fuchu. This thing requires a piece of Yamauchi Yisheng's reward, which can't be bought.

Moreover, Xiaopingta also wanted to live next to Uncle Tsunaliang, not too far apart, which made this request even more difficult.

Originally, Uncle Tsunaliang's house was given to him after his daughter entered Yamauchi Yoshiharu's harem, and it was not bought. There was no ready-made big house for Xiao Pingtai, so we could only build it with the land.

The land was said to be good, so Yamauchi Yoshikatsu let Xiao Pingtai choose as he pleased, and he was given two thousand square meters of open space under the city. But Xiaoheita looked around and found that it was either a little off or not big enough. Uncle Tsunaliang's residence had a thousand square meters of land on the left and right sides, but they were separated and could not be used.

"What do you think we should do? The retainers are slowly gathering under the city, and it will become harder and harder to find open space." Chen San followed Xiao Pingtai to look around for two days, but he didn't see anything satisfactory.

"It would be great if the open space on the left and right sides of uncle could be combined." Xiaoping Taichi thought about it.
