Inari wants to live in peace

In the winter of Yonglu XI, glass production began in earnest.

To explain how this happened, I wanted glass products such as boards and containers very much from the beginning.

Until now, however, it had relied on imports from abroad and was dominated by powerful and wealthy preferences.

Speaking of domestic products, there were only tiny glass balls and ornaments.

From the past, missionaries in Kyushu gave glass products to a great celebrity.

As a result, Japanese craftsmen became interested.

I knew in the future that glass products would become indispensable to people's lives.

Now we can only see value as luxury ornaments and a symbol of power, but the future is different.

That's why the Edo Shogunate fully supported Kyushu's glassmakers.

Most of the products I seek are far from bottles made by breathing air, so it was difficult to sail at first, but I have already taught you about the future.

I will not go out directly, so I will keep trying and making mistakes while exchanging letters.

Thanks to this, prototypes were made quite early.The glass plate is finished.

But there are irregularities everywhere and it's not a beautiful square.Although durability remains a concern compared to the future, it is a fairly fine product from this era.

So for now, Yoshi! and transported by ship to Edo with care so as not to crack.

Afterwards, consult with the woodworker to draw a plan and have him assemble the glass greenhouse in the corner of Inari Shrine.

It is not the size of a future farmer because it is still mainly handicrafts and cannot be produced in large quantities.

In other words, it is a small thing that ordinary households do with hobbies.The roof and windows were glassy greenhouses.

Still, since it must be the world's first glass greenhouse, we intend to grow a variety of plants from now on.

It could be an important cultural property for future generations, and a lot of people came to see the strange house that Inari God specifically ordered from the very beginning.

Of course, the soldiers were also watching, and they didn't let anyone in, but they were already famous enough.

Apart from that, I want a thermometer set in a glass greenhouse.

I enter a newly completed glass cabin and line up a shelf with people from the facility with rare plants from a foreign country.

I'll think about it then, but if combined with mercury, maybe we can do it.

However, I wonder how the exact temperature was measured.

(Is it true that water boiled at 100 degrees and frozen at 0 degrees?)

Temperatures are commonplace in the future, but it is undesirable to make very clear differences.Therefore, the standards around it need to be set carefully in the area of zero meters above sea level.

In fact, I wanted to finish these things closely related to everyday life from the very beginning of the Shogun.

But unlike the barricade, the thermometer wasn't easy to build.

Calendars and watches are now spreading fairly widely, starting with family registers, and I was certain that I was approaching Japan in the future I knew, regardless of whether it was good or bad.

In the spring of Yongroku XII, water treatment work nationwide was put to a standstill, so the next policy will be pursued.

In the usual Inari Taisha shrine, I sit on a tall tatami mat and speak magnificently to the gathered officials.

"We will continue to cultivate and improve crop and livestock varieties from foreign countries."

In the future, varietal improvement consists of a distracting stack.

In the Edo period, when there were no microscopes and science was barely developed, there were too many things missing.

It will inevitably be a turtle's walk, but it is better than not, so we have to go to the tunnel anyway.

And then, as far as I'm concerned, it's time for me to eat pork and beef as well as birds.Therefore, it has been brought in from foreign countries and livestock has become more livestock.

I don't want to monopolize it by myself, so I will first increase the number and spread it nationwide to increase the food self-sufficiency rate.

It was to bring richness to Japan like Inari gods, aiming not to starve.

But, well, leave that aside, and now it's more important than ever.

The officials also kept a relaxed atmosphere as instructed, but I found them waiting for my word.

So speak up without being careless.

"The next national project for water treatment work has already been decided."

Inari God, what the hell is that?

I would say that water and sewerage are widespread, but the urgency is somewhat low.

Above all, the Japanese are accustomed to the inconvenient life unlike me, who was reincarnated from the future.

Therefore, instead of proceeding at once, you are in the same position as the electricity currently engaged in research and development.

It's a trick to the tunnel.

Anyway, I speak up to communicate the next basic policy to officials.

"Steam engine propelled"

"I understand, but it seems difficult to put it into practice."

The people here are putting their futuristic knowledge into their heads, so they also understand how to turn the turbine with steam.

But when it comes to reproducing it, there are many things that are difficult in today's technology.

Therefore, I will explain it while showing the composition of the steam engine that I have drawn in advance at home.

"First of all, let's slowly lower our hips from a simple structure.

Anyway, if steam engines can be put into practice, the efficiency of transporting people and goods will increase dramatically. "

It is only natural that we should fail.The problem is to find out the cause and then connect it.

"We will continue to develop steam locomotives and steam ships with this as the main axis.

The compass is developed by private collaborators, so there's no problem. "

The Edo Shogunate alone is very helpless, so it is customary to solicit aspirations from the private sector.

If it succeeds, it is a merit of the Medal and it is certain that I will be recognized at Inari Taisha Shrine.

I exercise my authority here and there, but now is the time to keep moving forward without hesitation.

Thousands of miles from here.

I nodded to the official's gavel, but I don't know the detailed structure of the steam engine, so I showed only a rough composition around it, and then I threw a round at the scene.

But the theory has taught us that one day we will succeed if we continue to crush the causes of failure.

Therefore, the simultaneous development of locomotives and iron ships, which will be absolutely necessary in the future, will also be kept in view.

But then an official raises his hand and asks me a question.

"I have no objection to pursuing research and development.

Separately, will the farmer who has finished the water treatment work no longer be assigned a job? "

He puts his hand against his mouth and thinks about his question.

Most of the people who carry out water treatment work are farmers.

I can really put them back to their original state, which is the majority of the population ratio, and I can work on their missing heads.

We can't afford to spare the labor we can use today, so we must manage to use it well.

"Um, I'll do street maintenance.

In parallel, as soon as the railroad prototype is ready, we can start laying it in Honshu alone. "

"I understand."

Building a lifeline is essential in the future, and the development of a transportation network is indispensable.

However, the streets of the Edo period are narrow and the soil is hardly compacted, so when it rains, it becomes moist.

Since the gates have already been removed, the maintenance of the roads is directly linked to the speed of transportation and transmission of information, and it is expected that there will be significant improvement.

(But you don't even know if my decision is really right.)

We take care of limited resources and promote the separation of garbage, planting, and environmental protection throughout Japan.

Looking at the tragedy of the future, it is right to set a policy at an early stage.

However, I am often honest and unclear about politics and economics, and I am not adept at dealing with them ad hoc or tactical.

At best, I had only studied a year of high school, and my grades were mediocre.

For this reason, every time an official breaks into the scene, he managed to consolidate the policies that suited this era one by one.
