Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Edo is the center of Kanto, home to the largest number of handicraft workshops and craftsmen in the entire Yingzhou. In particular, silversmiths have the most and the highest level, which is even higher than Kyoto, which is close to Izumo and Iwami Ginzan.  After a large amount of silver ore was dug out from the Gin Mountains, it was transported to Edo, where it was made into various exquisite silverware, and then exported to Jeonyoushu, and then to the islands in the East China Sea through Satsuma and other vassal states.

    But this was before the war. In recent years, as the sea routes were blocked, silverware could not be exported in large quantities. All of it was piled up in various workshops. Not only did the price plummet, but the craftsmen were also laid off one after another. The entire silvermaking industry suffered heavy losses.  depression.

    The Ming army had already opened the gates of Edo City, but they never entered the city and did not allow anyone to leave the city.  Tokugawa Ieyasu and most of his family members, die-hard samurai and priests also committed suicide in the castle tower in the city. The remaining more than 100,000 residents in the city were in panic all day long, and rumors of a massacre spread.

    It wasn¡¯t until the garrison troops entered the city that the people of Edo finally felt at ease¡ªstretch out their heads, shrink back their heads, and do whatever they want!

    The Yokoshima family was the first of the eighty-three silver shops in Edo, and was also one of the richest families in the city. Tokugawa Ieyasu's suicide made them extremely pessimistic for a time, but they quickly adjusted after two days. A merchant should have a merchant.  So, business will continue, right?

    Hengdao Zongyi took stock of his family property and got two thousand shi of rice, ten million copper coins, two hundred pieces of silk, and one hundred pieces of exquisite silverware, ready to be presented to the Ming army.  Hearing that the army was entering the city today, he quickly pulled his things into the yard and knelt in front of the gate with his family of sixteen.

    It was the Third Battalion of the garrison army that was responsible for occupying Nime Town under the castle. Naturally, Sento Matsuda Kenhide personally took action against a large family like the Yokoshima family.  After surrounding the Hengdao family, Matsuda Kenhide saw that the family had already prepared, and sincerely praised: "To prosper the world, we need enlightened people like your family. Your contribution will be reported to the commander. I believe Zhao Taidian  Your Excellency will definitely be satisfied.¡±

    Taking the gift list, he frowned and said, "There are a lot of things, but I'm afraid they won't be what Ming Dynasty wants."

    Zongyi asked hurriedly: "Master Qianhu, please make it clear that if we can raise the funds, our Hengdao family is obliged to do so!"

    Matsuda Kenhide said: "Your family is a silver shop, why are there only these on the gift list?"

    Zongyi exclaimed: "My family presents the most exquisite silverware, and I dare not keep it secret. All the Qianhu adults can see it There is also a small gift to present to the Qianhu adults."

    Matsuda Kenhide said: "All silverware, including silver ingots, are subject to confiscation!" With a wave of his hand, a large number of soldiers poured in. Muneyi quickly followed Matsuda Kenhide and led the way straight to the warehouse.

    After opening the warehouse, hundreds of pieces of silverware were displayed on the shelves, and boxes and boxes of silver ingots piled up like mountains. Matsuda Kenhide said: "Requisitioned!" He threw two thick stacks of notes to Soyoshi: "This is a military ticket, one  It's always valuable, keep the balance in the account, and come back to the camp to ask for it, we are the third battalion of the Kwantung Garrison, remember."

    The most important task of the Kanto Garrison Army in clearing Edo Castle was to collect silverware and silver ingots.  Not all families are as able to recognize the general trend as the Yokoshima family, especially the samurai retainers who were former close confidants of the Tokugawa family. There are indeed many who choose to resist.  The purge operation lasted for seven days, beheading more than 200 people and arresting nearly a thousand criminals of five categories.

    A few days after arriving, the garrison army almost went red because of the casualties caused by the resistance. Fortunately, the Ming Army law enforcement team was supervising, so large-scale retaliatory massacres were not caused.

    Beginning on the ninth day, the Tokugawa family¡¯s castle tower in the city began to be renovated. It took ten days to complete the renovation, and the statue of Shinrikyo was installed. It was transformed into the Edo Daoist Temple of the Ming Dynasty Governor-General Yingzhou.

    The first abbot of Edo Taoist Temple was Zhu Lun Daidi, the former Luoye Island Taoist Temple who came all the way with the army.  The first thing Lun Daidi did when she took office was to set up a porridge shed and use the rice donated by various wealthy households to give out porridge and rice.

    Zhao Ran is paying close attention to the issue of gaining the credibility of the Edo Daoist Temple in Odawara Castle. Kyushu Pavilion is also paying close attention to it and has been maintaining daily information briefings with Zhao Ran.

    ??Jiuzhou Pavilion¡¯s official documents are listed as top priority and are basically delivered on the same day. The transit delay does not exceed six hours. What Zhao Ran receives can basically be regarded as real-time information.

    Information shows that on the first day of the completion of the Edo Taoist Temple, the Kyushu Pavilion¡¯s credit capacity was in single digits. It should be the contribution of several Taoist priests such as the Taoist priest Lundaidi.

    Beginning on the second and third days, the number soared to three digits. This was due to the contribution of the Ming army officers and soldiers as the news of the completion of the Taoist temple was spread to various Ming army units stationed in Edo.

    After the beginning of the fourth day, the confidence gradually increased for several consecutive days. As of yesterday, it finally exceeded 1,000. This is the reason why Taoist Master Lun started to give out porridge.  Next, Taoist priest Lun will hold a grand fasting ceremony, and the Taoist priests will open their doors to practice medicine, visit poor households, etc. These follow-up measures will be followed together. This year's plan is to absorb the daily faith after the Ming troops stationed in Edo withdraw.?Maintained in the thousands.

    Edo is a large city in Yingzhou, the center of the Kanto region, with a population of 100,000 in the city and millions of people around it. The effect of evangelism here far exceeds that of the islands in the East China Sea. If it is done well in the future, its credibility will be worth tens of millions per year, and the entire Ying  There are tens of millions of people in the state, and the target of trust value is over 100 million. This is an important trust enclave for the Taoist sect, and Jiuzhou Pavilion attaches great importance to it.

    With strong support from Taoism, I believe evangelistic work will be much easier.

    Of course, having only one Edo Daoist temple is certainly not enough. The construction of the Odawara Daoist Temple is also being stepped up. After the reconstruction of the destroyed castle tower in the city is completed, it will be transformed into a Taoist temple and become the first temple affiliated with the Edo Daoist Temple.  In the Taoist temple, Taoist priest Liang Xiaoyou is responsible for the temple blessing.

    The second Taoist temple affiliated to the Edo Doin has also been decided, which is the Kanagawa Domiao.  Within one year, a missionary system consisting of one Taoist temple and 18 Taoist temples will be built in the Kanto region.  The entire Taoist palace in Yingzhou is located in Kyoto, the largest city in Yingzhou today.

    Zhao Ran's plan is to build the Yingzhou Mission within three years, headed by the Kyoto Dao Palace, with seven Daoist temples in Edo, Nagoya, Kobe, Kumamoto, Matsuyama, Sendai, and Sapporo as the backbone, and 63 Daoist temples as the basis.  The system has become the inseparable source of credibility of Jiuzhou Pavilion¡¯s credibility value ¡°since ancient times¡±.

    On July 30, after more than half a month of intensive repairs, and with the full efforts of the fleet construction monks, the Odawara Castle Taoist Temple was finally completed, showing the power of the Taoism to the more than 60,000 Yingshu people in Odawara Castle.  Building strength.

    The Taoist temple was built on the original site of the castle tower. For effective comparison, it is three points taller than the original castle tower.  Zhao Ran personally attended the inauguration ceremony and personally summoned the rain master's shadow in front of thousands of people to pray for good weather during the farming season in Yingzhou.

    The Rain Master's phantom created a false shadow in the sky that saw no light but no water, which made all the people in Odawara City marvel at it, but in Zhao Ran's opinion, it was really boring.

    After seeing the true God, who would be interested in these fake things?
