Edo Traveler
Vol 2 Chapter 11: Applause for the crowd
The Three Hundred Days Ceremony of the Loving Old Monk was still grand. There were many people from the monks of He Temple and the believers of the same clan and groups. Some monks from other monasteries also came here, and the flower monk returned to the flower monk, and it was still very handy to chant and recite rituals.
Tademon has inherited the memory of the original owner. Although he has been busy in the past year, but fortunately, after reading a few sentences, he can basically keep up. Kneeling on the straw mat, Haosheng gave the old monk a ride, which was regarded as a contribution to the original master.
Several seniors in the temple knew that Chuemon had already arrived. Originally, they had planned that Chuemon would rise up, and they would use the official hides to make a fuss. As a result, Chuemon just mingled among the believers and chanted the sutras, and did nothing else. As for the dozen or so helpers he brought, they just waited quietly outside the hall.
"It's still that honest little brother!"
A group of senior brothers and uncles are determined that if this comes back with official hides, they really have no good way to counteract it. The monks of the Edo shogunate no longer existed as powerful as the Muromachi period. There were thousands of monks and soldiers at Kofukuji Temple in Nara, Nakai in the Warring States Period, and even more than Eizan raised troops against Oda Nobunaga.
The most famous Honganji Ishiyama Gobo, 40,000 people resisted Oda Nobunaga’s ten-year attack. With the addition of Kenjo Ishiyama Gobo and a steady stream of believers, he killed Naomasa Harada and maimed Nobori Sakuma. Tian's face was ashamed.
The current temple shrines have long since become thin, and the people of the world have been weakened by generations. When the Tokugawa shogunate arrived, the temples were left with a little religious function. Of course, in order to appease the temple shrine, the Tokugawa shogunate entrusted many affairs closely related to the common people to the temple shrine, which greatly increased the income of the temple shrine.
spent money in disguise to raise temples and shrines as waste. Without the original Amitabha, there are 300,000 believers who have risen up in arms. In the eyes of a powerful bureaucrat like Chuemon Heizo, although it is not a bug that can be pinched to death, it is not a level opponent.
The ritual was over and the monks dispersed, but most of the people and believers stayed. Isn't this because there will be a singing and selling party later, because of the fire in Edo year after year, the society generally does not have any rejection of the use of second-hand goods. After all, if you buy a new one, it won’t take two years to be burnt. It’s better to use a second-hand one, and it won’t be so distressing if you burn it.
The point is that second-hand ones are cheaper, and they are definitely cheaper than brand new ones. The burden of life is so heavy, one can save one. The work of repairing porcelain bowls that many people in later generations simply cannot understand is the best proof. These days, it was still an age when the bowl was broken and had to be refilled and continued to be used. It is not so unusual to use things that others have used.
Seeing that Chungemon was still standing on the side of the hallway as peaceful as Mount Tai, the seniors in Myogan Temple were a little surprised. Their brains were within the calculations of these three melons and two dates in the temple. Since they couldn't guess what Chuemon was thinking, they simply reacted to the changes, pretending that they didn't find Chuemon Heizai.
The singing and selling party went on as scheduled, and a dozen helpers guarding the outside were attracted to it, causing several monks in the hall to be frightened. These are all public servants who hang around in the yamen and on the street. They can't fight for anything, suppress the common people, bully the unarmed masters, and they are not at hand.
More than a dozen people are definitely enough to suppress dozens of monks up and down Myogan Temple, and it is easy to directly help Chuemon Gate from the mountain gate to the main hall. Only Xiao Zan Chuemon opens his mouth.
But these people are still rules, how can they do it without instructions, they are just curious to sing the things at the meeting. Chuemon also participated in the auction this year for the first time, but he was actually very curious.
A known guest monk came out carrying a robe. It was not new and not old. Obviously it wasn't the thing of Master Chungemon. Because this thing is made of wood wool on the inside and satin on the outside, it is not luxurious, nor does it meet the status of residence. If you insist on classification, it is probably a kind of jacket.
Selling winter clothes in early summer, the audience's enthusiasm is not high. The common people live a day as a day, so who would buy a quilted jacket in the summer? A few guys who may have come from the pawnshop were very interested. The pawnshop business is very large these days. They also do things like buying old clothes and then cleaning and reselling them.
To give an improper example, Li Zicheng besieged Kaifeng City next door to the Great Meng Dynasty. The soldiers in the city didn't even have cold clothes, and they had no materials to make. Therefore, the Zhou king Zhu Gongxuan in the city paid for himself and redeemed all the pawnshops in the city with leather jackets and cotton coats, so that Chen Yongfu's thousands of soldiers would wear them warmly. The morale of the army was boosted and Li Zicheng's attack was repelled.
There was a pawnshop’s hand-man who came up to see the monk’s robe and offered a price. Although there are other pawnshop old clothes shop folks, the price-raising thing only appears in novels. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Everyone looks up and sees their heads down. They are all in the same line. Besides, everybody knows how much an old clothes can earn, so there is no need to fight for it.
The second piece is a copper kettle, probably used to drink water when going out. As I said before, the water in Edo Castle was brackish and not good to drink. Even the generals and the harems of Daozhong drank the "shangshui" specially sent into the city. Therefore, it is really difficult to drink sweet water in the castle, and it is normal to buy water and eat it in Edo.
Of course, the common people mainly drink brackish water, but as the monks with relatively stable income and even affluent, naturally they will not be willing to drink brackish water. Generally, drink the mountain springs transported from outside the city, or the water specially transported into the city from the upper reaches of the Sumida River.
Chuemon is a provocative, and he drinks sweet water that he bought. After all, it's not that short of money, who wants to drink the brackish water that animals are not happy to drink.
The kettle is a very practical thing, and it can be used in daily life. A Mu Ming who came to help also took a fancy to the kettle and went up to bid a price. Seeing that there were officials calling for prices, the people on the left and right and the pawnshop guys stopped bidding, and they gave in and gave up the kettle to Mu Ming.
The eye clearly took out the money and hung the kettle around his waist. When Chuemon saw it, he asked for the kettle to take a look. It's not pure copper, maybe some other materials were added when making it, but it doesn't prevent this pot from being good. Except for a few slight bumps, it won't be a problem to use it for decades.
sing sales proceeded very quickly, and even fans, Chinese books and other things were sold at low prices. Seeing the crowd gradually dissipating, Chuemon walked into the hall and patted his hand randomly.
All eyes thought it was a signal to start, Cang Lang Lang pulled out ten hands, and was about to cause trouble!
