Edo Traveler

Chapter 36: The horseman is really majestic

   Masakene Yabe was practiced as the duty Edo-cho at the time of the burglary, and his mood was naturally more urgent. He has been personally summoned by Tokugawa Kayuki and Mizuno Tadakuni to meet (exercise) and talk (reprimand) himself, how could he not be in a hurry.

   But Yuan Jingyuan was not in a hurry. He found that the concentricity on the roof seemed to be his companion. He felt that someone was in the critical moment of reasoning, and it was best not to interrupt immediately. And if Heizo and Tadaemon really solved the case, then Yuan Kagemoto, as the leader, would naturally have a well-planned credit.

   "Let's wait a moment, maybe there are other..." Yuan Shan Yuan grabbed Yabe Sadaken.

   "Hmm..." Although Yabe Sadaqian was urgent, Yuanshan Yuanyi persuaded him to stop his desire to rush to inquire.

  Tadaemon standing on the roof did not see the two obedient adults who had walked out of the house, but continued to think about the whole process of the theft. The problem of entering the house from the canal outside the yard should not be a big problem. Some people may ask why Nara House does not even have a guard dog.

This is related to the five-generation general Tokugawa Tsunayoshi. This general is called "Dog Gongfang". For the specific details, there are thousands of characters on Baidu, so I won't copy it. Everyone knows that he has issued a "compassion order for living things." "That's it. He stipulated that even if the people of the world were bitten to death by wild dogs, they were not allowed to fight back against wild dogs.

   Popular grievances, people grievances!

   The people's hatred for this command is really like a surging river, endless. As a result, Tsunayoshi Tokugawa died. Can there be dogs alive in Edo? Think about it, you have been riding wild dogs on your head for more than ten years, and the dog bit a person to death. The family of the deceased is going to apologize to the wild dog. How much suffering has been caused by this evil government.

   All the dogs in Edo were basically killed in a short period of time, and then the Edo people’s dislike of dogs also formed. Think about the possibility that your ancestor was bitten to death by a dog, and you have to apologize to the dog, you know that it is impossible for anyone to be willing to raise a dog again. In the end, some rural areas or hunting dogs for special use were preserved.

   More importantly, in the last few decades, the terrible Tianming famine and the Tianbao famine broke out one after another, and more than three million people died of starvation. To be honest, the children of the neighboring family have all come to eat, so can there be dogs alive?

   What kind of deer in Nara is a sacred deer? Japanese people will not eat this kind of sacred deer if they starve to death. In fact, Genpei had been eaten up during the war, and he had eaten it several times during the Warring States Period, not to mention the Great Famine and Tianbao Famine. In theory, the Nara deer has changed species at least six or seven times.

   Now you want to find a dog in Edo Castle, it is as difficult as finding a three-legged toad!

   That's the same thing about dogs or dogs, Tademon didn't think so much, he began to observe the patio. Of course, the so-called patio is not done by just making a hole in the roof, so rain or something will fall into the house at will.

  Edo is located directly opposite the Pacific Ocean. It is theoretically in a warmer oceanic climate (but it was not in this climate for decades in the early nineteenth century), and it rained frequently. In order to ventilate, the shape of the patio that opens to the south has been changed, and it has become a model where a single skylight is built on the slope.

   A small roof was added to the skylights, so that the skylights that were directly facing the sky became the ones covered by the roof, so that ordinary rainwater could not enter the warehouse, and there was enough ventilation to prevent the warehouse from being dark and damp.

  As the fan said, even a three-year-old child can't go in and out of this small skylight. An adult such as Chuemon, at most put his head in, and a hand is a bit squeezed.

  Tadaemon barely tried it. The skylight is indeed above the side where the tea bowl is placed. You can clearly see the set seat, but seeing it doesn't mean you can get it.

   "How is it?" Ping San Mao was beside him, trying to look inward through the gap.

   "No idea. Although the seat is below, it is impossible to get it directly." Chuemon shook his head.

   "How about a rope to wrap it? A bamboo pole tied with a cloth bag to catch it?" Heizo also had some thoughts, and he also reached into the skylight to look.

   "You'll know if you try it. It won't open, how do you tie the rope." Chuemon can only put his head and right hand in. It is really difficult to make any big moves.

   "I think it works!" Heizo didn't think so, he seemed to have some idea.

   I saw him go down the warehouse and find a few eyesight, seeming to ask them to find something. Those few eyes are unclear, but after all, Ping San is a concentric adult. They are just casual workers, so they still obey orders.

   Heizo was not idle, and asked the guy at Naraya to find a lot of ropes, including straw ropes, hemp ropes, and even leather ropes. Anyway, I have found some materials of various materials~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Nara House is a big shop, so it's easy to find something.

   Those who saw the sights also brought a lot of people back. Everyone smelled like cow and horse dung. Many people covered their noses and stepped aside and sent them to Ping San. Pingsan took them into the warehouse, checked the positions of the skylights and seating, and murmured at them.

   Seeing Chuemon here, you can understand that these people are obviously livestock owners who raise cattle and horses. Edo has a population of one million. Except for the transportation of various materials from the Kanto Plain by water into the city day and night, materials such as Echigo, Kai, Shinano, and Ueno still need to be transported into the city by livestock.

   Therefore, there are a large number of transport operators in the city. Since there is a demand for this animal, there are naturally a large number of people who raise cattle and horses and sell cattle and horses outside the city.

   There is a song in later generations: "Man with a horse, you are mighty and majestic."

   Obviously, Ping San also thought of this thing. If a person who raises a horse and can't even lay a cow, he would play a hammer. What would you sell if a horse ran away?

   The cattle and horse dealers who were ordered by Heizo in a circle received the ropes respectively, and then two or three batches, respectively, boarded the roof, watched by Chuemon, and threw the ropes into the warehouse.

   I tried several times in the first few days, but they all failed because the skylight was too small to be deployed. Some can't even throw the rope, which is normal, and they are not to blame.

   Until an old man came up and claimed to have raised horses for forty years, he could lodge the horse with his eyes closed. Instead of putting his head and hands into the skylight, he first tapped the position in the warehouse, and then probed in on the roof for comparison and confirmation. Finally, closing his eyes, he only reached into the skylight and waited for a while.

"middle!"

   The old man whispered, and the straw rope was thrown directly onto the seat, gently lifted and collected, like a horse’s neck, the bundle was strong!
