I'm a thankful fox in Tokyo

Chapter 35: It’s too feudal. Can we try some advanced capitalism?

Except for the medical department, the Tokyo University Medical Department is a Celestial Dragon among Celestial Dragons. Even if you are a tutor, the hourly wage is five times that of other majors in the same school.

However, the idea of ​​resigning only lasted for a moment.

They probably paid such a high price because of Mr. Miyazaki. A stranger can ruthlessly slaughter him and reap both Fukuzawa Yukichi and his favor.

But it is not good to use this opportunity to climb up the ladder for an acquaintance who has done you a favor.

After a brief thought, Higashino Yu lowered the price: "According to the normal tutoring price, 2,000 yen per hour. Mr. Iori has helped me a lot."

Iori Tadamichi looked at him with some surprise. Masahiro said in the letter that this kid likes money the most.

Observing etiquette, knowing when to advance and retreat, and knowing the general situation, it is indeed good. Iori Tadamichi felt more relieved and reached out to pat Higashino Yu on the shoulder: "Then it's settled."

After seeing off the Iori grandfather and grandson, Higashino Yu returned home with a heavy heart.

As soon as he entered the house, he saw Xiuji sitting in front of the TV in a daze.

Dong Yeyu walked over and found that it was a late-night comedy show. He wondered, "Why don't you watch the Taiga drama today?"

Xiuji turned his head, sniffed, and fell to the ground sadly: "Reporting to the lord, Xiuji missed the broadcast of the Gongmei Taikoden."

"Last night, Kikuchiyo was about to attack the city first. The eunuchs calculated that the battle of Shikao Castle tonight would definitely win or lose, and wanted to cheer for her tonight. As a result, they missed the broadcast time now, and they don't know whether Kikuchiyo is alive or dead."

Kikuchiyo is not a woman, but the protagonist of the Gongmei Taikoden.

He is actually a nameless farmer. After picking up the family scroll and sword of the dead samurai on the battlefield, he claimed to be a samurai with a family tree and used the last name on the scroll as his own name.

However, the owner of that name was only ten years old in the timeline of the play, and he still used a nickname.

The name Chiyo was mostly used as a nickname in ancient times in the island country, similar to Ergou and Xiaozhu in Shenzhou.

Kikuchiyo was just an uneducated farmer, so he naturally didn't know these details, so he made a lot of jokes.

At the beginning of the play, he was discovered and ridiculed by many ronin warriors, and was almost hacked to death by some warriors who felt insulted.

"Don't worry, he is the protagonist, he will definitely not die."

Dongye Yu comforted him, and saw Xiuji still sighing, and he felt funny in his heart. He was a bird of decades old, but he was like a child.

He walked over and opened the shopping bag, and poured some of the millet, buckwheat and other grains into the porcelain bowl dedicated to Xiuji.

Hearing the tinkling sound of the grains falling into the porcelain bowl, Xiuji was no longer sad at that time, and his throat full of feathers moved visibly.

"Lord!"

This was the first time it received a special reward from Dongye Yu - in the past, it was just leftovers.

It changed its noisy and funny appearance in the past, and stood upright and waited quietly, with its head slightly lowered, with a sense of ritual.

If the king regards his subjects as his hands and feet, the subjects will regard the king as their confidant, and vice versa.

Although the current residence of the Higashino shogunate is only a 20-square-meter rental house, and there are only two monsters in the shogunate, Xiuji attaches great importance to such a so-called shogunate that is not even a grass-roots team.

It seems to be stubbornly determined to have a relationship with its own king and minister.

This is really too feudal, can't we do some advanced capitalism?

I am the boss, and you are an employee, isn't it good?

Higashino Yu often complains in his heart, but although he feels a little strange and second-year, he can't bear to hurt it with an indifferent or funny attitude.

This is the difference between monsters with long lifespans and people with short lifespans.

People can accept changes quickly, even if it is a separation of life and death, most people can accept it well.

It can even change from the feudal era to capitalism and then run into a more advanced social composition in just a hundred years.

Monsters are different. Once they accept a person, a thing, or a culture, it is difficult to change.

Monsters cannot accept too rapid a change. Their perception of time is different from that of humans.

Sometimes a hundred years pass in a flash, and things have changed. High-rise buildings and factories have sprung up, but they seem to have not changed at all. They are still happily practicing and running around in the mountains and forests, like residents in the Peach Blossom Spring.

If an old friend visits you decades ago, they will treat you as they did when they first met - of course, especially those monsters with kind character.

This is also the reason why monsters and humans cannot be connected. Most humans are like bright meteors, crossing the night sky, shining brightly, but fleeting.

After the glory, only the monsters are left in the dark, wandering in familiar places over and over again.

They treasure the beautiful memories of getting along with friends, ruminating and chewing countless times, waiting for friends who are impossible to return, until the end of their long lives.

The lucky monsters can be connected with people again, but the ending is basically the same.

If people have countless treasures, then monsters have only one treasure, which is memory.

But memory is something that has happened after all, just like looking at yellowed old photos, which only adds to the loneliness.

Xiuji accepted the culture of the island country and the Warring States from the Taiga drama, stubbornly followed himself, stubbornly regarded himself as a samurai, and regarded himself as the lord.

As a monster, it probably won't change until it dies. This is Xiuji's awareness and persistence.

When Dong Yeyu thought of this, he felt that he had only regarded it as an insignificant little follower before, which might be a bit too disrespectful to it.

At least for him now, Xiuji is a reliable assistant.

So his attitude became more serious, sitting on the floor, pushing the small porcelain bowl of grain in front of it with both hands.

"Xiuji, this is a reward for you, please accept it."

"Xiuji Zaemon, I will repay the master's kindness with my death."

Xiuji bowed his head very solemnly, and when he raised his head, his face changed, and he buried his head happily. The bird's head was like the bolt of a submachine gun that was shooting, without the slightest manner of a samurai, and the solemn and solemn atmosphere suddenly dissipated.

Damn samurai, I was actually moved by it just now, it's really a problem.

Dong Yeyu laughed and shook his head, and ignored it. He walked to the small square table, took out the textbook and exercises, and started today's study.

I came back late today. I have to do my homework quickly, otherwise I will delay my practice. As a monster, I can forget anything but practice. This is the foundation of my life!

Tamura Shingo squatted on the street, a cigarette in his mouth, looking at the apartment building not far away while making a phone call.

"President, it's confirmed. This kid lives in Ayase Town. I'll send you the address first."

The person on the phone smiled.

"Good job. The employer hasn't given a clear instruction yet. You stay there and monitor him to see who he is in contact with and if there is anyone familiar. You can come back to the finance department to reimburse the accommodation and meals."
