[Comprehensive master Naruto] The daimyo of the country of fire is in a panic

The Country of Fire is located in the southeast of the continent, spanning three climate zones from north to south: temperate zone, subtropical zone, and tropical zone.Ashigami, Ogino and other places to the north of Saga have a temperate monsoon climate, with high temperatures and rainy summers, and cold and dry winters; Shimogogaki, Nagaga and other places south of Saga have a subtropical monsoon climate, with high temperatures and rainy summers and mild and dry winters; the southern part of the Iori Peninsula It has a tropical monsoon climate, with no winter all year round, high temperatures and rainy weather; the northwest region is far away from the ocean, has a dry climate and scarce precipitation, and has a temperate continental climate.

——So when Mr. Kishimoto vaguely hinted in the original work that the prototype of the Land of Fire was Japan, I absolutely didn’t believe it.I thought as I stared at the map of the Fire Country newly compiled by Yamaxian, his son, and others.

Within fifteen days after the summer harvest, my ducks, ah no, my retainers came to Saga one after another for the second duty report of the year.

Ishida Takataka is worthy of the title of "Yaksha Taro". His rich voice is particularly powerful even when he is complaining: "Last year there was a drought, and this year there is a waterlogged situation. I can't survive this day!"

"Many mountain clans came from the Kawa Country. These people refused to farm the land peacefully and robbed homes everywhere. As soon as we went to arrest them, they all scattered into the woods and hid, and the entire Nagaga area was in chaos! "Sasaki Yukaku also expressed his bitterness.

Starting from the two of them, people in the room rushed to complain.

Chinobu Sakahara cleared his throat, tugged at the tip of his beard and said: "Souichiro, Katsuzaburo, who of these people here has no difficulties? You are all guardians of one side. For the development of our family, it is your duty to overcome difficulties."

"That's right, no one here is responsible for the ocher sandstone fields where nothing can grow, and no one is responsible for the large swamps in the Land of Rain that are foggy all day long." Ishida Takagao stared at Sakahara Chinobu. Eye.

Sasaki Yukaku and Yamagata Shouzhidu stood up to smooth things over: "Don't be disrespectful in front of His Highness, business matters are important."

Um?Your Highness, I haven't heard enough yet. Do you want to continue?

There are no factions in the party, and there are all kinds of strange things. The "Four Heavenly Kings" are not monolithic. Ishida and Sasaki are of the same mind, and the two families of Sakahara and Yamagata are closer; Ogino's Oshio Morimai and Chisaka's Kawakami Sojun will also hug each other to gain some say; Kitaki's Keyaki The two former Ashigami counties jointly supported the Muto family's uprising, and our friendship was very deep. My mother believed that they were the faction that I could rely on the most.

The gray-haired Aso Yoshihide said solemnly: "The Kingdom of Thunder spent two years building a new secondary dam and repairing the embankment on the main river in the country. It was finally completed in March this year. There were no flash floods in the first two quarters. The annual tribute up and down the river has returned to normal."

"The person in charge of the project is Daidoji Nobutaka." Uesugi Hiromichi added for the senior.

Regardless of their respective factions, the Kingdom of Thunder is recognized as the greatest enemy of the Kingdom of Fire. The stable development of the enemy country is not good news for us.

I glanced at Sakahara Chinobu.

A thoughtful look appeared on Sakahara Chinobu's plain face: "The person appointed by the Kingdom of Thunder this time is Daidoji Nobutaka... Why didn't the famous flood control expert Nanbu Gakuzo from the past few years take charge?"

Hiromichi Uesugi nodded: "We have sent members to investigate. Daidoji originally became a monk in Kyoto. After returning to secular life, he got this job through the recommendation of the third son of the Kengo Lei family."

Sakahara Chisho raised his eyebrows: "Nanbu Gakuzo's daughter is the concubine of the second son of the Takemori family, and Takemikado still doesn't like his eldest son who is blind in one eye."

Aso Yoshiken's frown gradually relaxed: "So that's it, those little ones are ready to make a move."

I'm quite curious about the drama about the feud between the brothers next door. This dispute is the most obvious weakness of the Kingdom of Thunder. Even Sotoshi Tairaguchi in the southernmost part of the Kingdom of Fire is well aware of the fight between the heirs of the Thunder family. .

Sakahara Chinobu turned to me: "Shunzaburo Ito has been stationed in Platycodon City for half a year to train troops. He is more familiar with the situation in the North. It is time to transfer him to the direction of the Kingdom of Thunder."

Ishida Takaka said anxiously: "The Kingdom of Rain was plundered by the Kingdom of Wind last year, and its vitality was severely damaged. Now the domestic situation is extremely turbulent. Rensheng Caimao became a monk, the common family and the Zong family were divided, and the civil war was in full swing. It was us who It’s a good time to swallow it, how can you transfer Ito away?”

Sasaki Yukaku also frowned: "The Yamazaki family in Kawanoguni is unable to control the local tycoons, and civil strife is frequent. This is an opportunity for us to intervene."

Sakahara Chinobu raised the corners of his lips coldly: "The Land of Rain and the Land of Sichuan are like cicadas that are about to die at any time, but now is not the time to recruit troops, they can go crazy, and we still have to spend the winter."

Everyone knew that troops could not be mobilized before the rice was harvested. Ishida and Sasaki fell silent.After everyone exchanged glances, Uesugi Hiromichi and Aso Yoshiken held a small meeting in a low voice, and Sakahara changed the topic: "On the Dragon Boat Festival, the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, the Holy One summoned Gongfangden to the Butokuden Hall to pay homage to him and gave him jade and iris wine. , we had a very happy conversation, and we recited a haiku poem together - 'Cicadas are chirping in Nanshanpo, the rice dumpling leaves are as fragrant as ever all over the city, and we see Wu Yue Wu again'."

Everyone absent-mindedly praised the emperor and the shogun for their literary talents.Hisashi Yamagata seemed a little eager to try, but except for me who smiled at him, no one paid attention to his temporary itch and waited for him to continue speaking and sum up last year's harvest.

When my father was granted the title, the stone height of the Fire Country was 25 million stone, which means that including rice, barley, corn, etc., the Fire Country could produce a total of 9 million stone of food every year. .Now, according to statistics from Shanxian Shouzhi, the annual supply submitted by various places last year accounted for about a quarter of the total grain production, 8 shi, of which rice was the majority; the production ratio of rice, wheat, buckwheat and millet was about 3 :2:[-]:[-], the northern counties harvest more wheat, and the southern counties harvest more rice. The total grain output reported by each place is still [-] million shi, no more, no less.

Good guy, productivity has not increased at all in 13 years, good guy.

I looked at the retainers with a half-smile: "Should we rectify agriculture?"

They looked a little shy: "Your Highness is right."

"The Kingdom of Thunder has already achieved results in controlling floods. We can't do it if we don't take some measures."

This time there was a sense of crisis in everyone's eyes. Even Wuyu Shou Oshima Ryuya, who was almost incited to rebel last year, mingled with the crowd and shouted: "I will do my best for our family!"

I was waiting for their words, and immediately asked Toramaru to take out a newly printed "Takagi Farm Book" (I had long forgotten the names of the two agricultural gods).His Majesty Yamagata saw his signature printed on the title page, and when he introduced it to all the retainers, they all seemed energetic: "...His Royal Highness was inspired by the God of Takagosanji, that is, the God of Takagi, and he and I collected the great treasures. Almost all the entries in agricultural books that are useful for food cultivation are compiled into this masterpiece..."

Shanxian was eloquent and kept talking for half a quarter of an hour. Everyone's ears couldn't bear it, and they all expressed that they would definitely borrow it and read it carefully.But Chinobu Sakahara's face darkened slightly from the moment I took out the farming book. I couldn't figure out what he was thinking.

Fortunately, before he opened his mouth, Canaan suddenly knelt outside the door holding the letter.I was the first to notice my nickname in the main seat: "What's the matter?"

Canaan couldn't wait to report loudly: "The news just came that Yanshan Temple has raised troops to attack the Temple of Fire."

The roof was crowded with people as always, and Tobirama pricked up his ears to listen to the movements under the roof while recalling the sparring session between him and Toramaru yesterday.

Toramaru studied under the local school of Ocher. The school respected observing the enemy's weaknesses, defeating ten kai with one force, and focusing on strengthening the muscles and bones. It was very suitable for a naturally strong person like Toramaru. If one-on-one competition was purely about swordsmanship, Tobirama would not be able to find him. Opportunity to attack.In the flash of lightning, he saw the shadow of the swordsman on the Tamiyama battlefield in Toramaru.

"... If I just let him go like that, I always feel that there will be trouble in the future." Yamanaka Shimoha was talking to Nara Shikaji about Suwa Shinnosuke.

The Uchiha brothers told their eldest brother about another swordsmanship competition: "The samurai you saw that day came to see me again. He claimed to be a member of the Kubota family. He was extremely angry after being insulted by me. For the sake of the honor society, Fight me to the death after the harvest."

Hashirama couldn't hold back his laughter: "Pfft——"

Madara shrugged: "Is it funny? Because of such reasons as honor and dignity, no fewer than ten people have died in my hands."

Their small space immediately fell into silence. After a while, Izuna said in an old tone: "Alas, these inexplicable warriors."

"Shh!" Tobirama raised a finger, "Listen!"

Sakahara Chinobu's voice was easy to distinguish: "It turns out that you were the one who asked Yoneya... the Ryuzoji family and Matayo came to see me. How do you think we should reply to them?"

The daimyo's tone was neither humble nor overbearing: "I think industries like rice houses should be nationalized - in fact, I think all aspects of grain production need to be planned more rationally."

"Hey, my highness! You can't be too hasty!" Hashirama said exactly what Tobirama said to him.

Sakahara actually sounded happy: "Ambition is a good quality, Your Highness."

The daming paused: "The yields of millet, wheat, and beans I planted at the test site each increased by 50.00%. Of course, I don't deny that the harvest is related to this year's weather, but the positive impact of man-made factors is the decisive factor."

"Of course, you are very capable." Sakahara Chinobu said seriously.

"The problem we are facing now is that we need to grow more food in various places. Only with food can we support soldiers and make money. But if various places become rich, I am afraid it will encourage people like Wuyu who are unwilling to serve their country wholeheartedly... I need your guidance. "

He just said it!He said this in front of the leader of the largest separatist force at present!Tobirama couldn't believe it.

"No matter what you think, this one is the most daring puppet I have ever seen in my life." Shanzhong Shuangye said to everyone with eyes wide open.

Sakahara Chixuan laughed: "Your father is a supporter of centralization. I didn't expect you to be too."

Uchiha Madara's eyes were faintly filled with red mist.

"It happens to be me too," Sakahara Chinobu said.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief silently, but their hearts tightened even more after they thought about getting through the orifice.

The daimyo's voice was a little unstable: "I believe you and Shan County will come up with the best solution. In addition, in order to increase food production, the old tax system needs to be reformed."

"No rush, no rush. Please don't worry."

"With you and Shanxian Xiangzhu, I am very relieved. Take this "Takagi Farm Book" and I will give Shinichi the various technologies in the cement factory and papermaking factory. We will benefit from each other."

"It's great that Inuko can help you. If you need anything, just ask and Tsubohachiro will allocate funds for you."

The daimyo stood up and said goodbye to the elder of the Bitou family. Both of them were polite.

"He knew that he was a tool that could be easily used, so he worked hard to become a tool that could be easily used. It's sad." Uchiha Madara clenched his fists bitterly.

"How much better are we than him?" Tobirama asked himself softly.

"Your Highness, I saw Lord Genjiro Tsuda coming!" Hashirama had already jumped off the roof.
