The Space Fortress That Came to the Sengoku Era

side/Kuyuan Ichima

"Ah, tofu."

I was making tofu for lunch this day and in the kitchen, and Nobunaga came. You've been coming to lunch more and more since you treated Ramen to Mr. Jitsu the other day, haven't you?

Apparently, he wants to eat new dishes first. These places are kids, right?

"Are you gonna fry me?

"Yeah. Why don't you do it around here?

"Oil is not cheap."

I just made tofu today to make fried oil. Hey, I want to eat.

There's a cooking method for frying in oil, but it's not very common, is it? In this day and age. Because the oil is high.

They seem to have tofu, but they're not that common. It seems to use tofu and other dishes because the sect makes sophisticated dishes.

We need to do something about a situation where knowledge and technology gather all over the temple. The ideal would be the separation of academia and religion. Maybe during the Warring States, along with the rights issues of other religions, I want to follow that path.

I don't deny religion altogether, though. You don't like it personally or you fall into the hate category. But instead of denying religion, can we not raise people and technicians who learn non-religious disciplines from scratch?

Well, we need to put aside the discouraging stories and make fried oil.

It's not hard to make. Basically just cut the tofu thin and fry it in oil.

For fried oil, drain the oil and simmer with sugar, soy sauce, etc., to taste. All you have to do is pack the vinegar rice!

"You. Customer."

"Yeah? Who?

"Looks like a clerk."

While Nobunaga was watching, come on. I was trying to make vinegar rice and I had an unexpected visitor. I have no choice but to leave the vinegar rice making to Elle and Ketty, and I'm going to meet the visitors with Melty.

Sometimes these days, right? Clerk Wanted.

I'm just saying no to people like some spy or just jailers in trouble for money.

I'm the one making the final decision, but I'm anxious, so I'm getting Elle and Melty to decide if it's suspicious or useful.

"My name is Ichigo Takigawa and I was born in Koga, Omi. I don't care how many locks you have, so please enjoy them."

Is that what I heard wrong? Like this guy just named Ichigo Takigawa?

"Lord Takikagawa. Um, why are we here? We're closer to a merchant than a martial arts house."

I checked with Melty, who refrains from lying down, and apparently it's not a mistake to ask.

Am I wrong where I'm coming from? You're going to be one of the four kings of Oda.

In historical fact, after Nobunaga's death, his inability to be allowed to attend the Tsingzhou Conference was an affair in late life, but his abilities were certain, and although he lost Ueno's territory due to Nobunaga's death, under that circumstance he had collected and fought his Hokujo opponents for as much as 18,000 in the Kamikawa Battle.

There seemed to be some trust on the part of the Chinese people, and if Nobunaga were alive, he would have been one of those people who would have turned out differently.

"As I was saying the other day, I saw Nanban ships on Tsushima and Nanban ships firing cannons. In the time to come, it will be artillery and artillery. And I manipulated a Nanbian ship myself, and I thought it was Kurumi's time out in the ocean."

It's enough to make me want to suspect you're being honest, but Ichigo seems serious.

You're in trouble. What am I gonna do? I have trouble getting pushed back and going to other houses, and he's a waste of time to be our minister.

"You said it was in your best interest. Give me your face."

"Ha."

"Mm-hmm. Nice face. You seem to be working out very well. No, hold him."

Looking at Melty wondering what to do, it was unexpectedly Nobunaga who moved.

There have been a few clerk hopefuls so far, but Nobunaga has never spoken out even when he was there.

Nobunaga, who was sitting on the edge, went in front of Ichigo, and when he let himself raise his face, he stared at Ichigo's face and made a summary judgment.

I feel a little fateful about things.

"Right. Then for now, with a hundred pieces."

"... well, I don't know if a certain one would say it. Isn't it a little too expensive?

"We only have money."

The paycheck should start at Hundred Pieces for now? You're Ichie Takikagawa, and you can't treat me like a miscellaneous soldier.

Ichigo pointed his glance at Melty for confirmation because he was surprised, but he nodded, so there would be no problem.

"Isn't that good? You won't be dressed without one of your ministers forever."

"Looks more like a samurai than I do, though. You're going to fall asleep."

"Huhahaha. Get used to that. For the rest of us."

I guess my history has gone a long way.

Ichigo is still young enough to be over twenty years old, and if he learns how to do it the way we do it, he could be more than a historical fact.

I'm getting five hundred pieces myself. If it's a war, we have to get the right people out. You need a few samurai, as long as your feet are okay. Should I say I was really helpful?

"What's this?

"When it's Ming or Nanban, we all surround one table. Take a seat, Lord Takigawa."

By the time Ichigo was in a paragraph, Elle and Ketty carried lunch.

Today's menu is made with sushi and tofu miso soup, and tofu named Cold Slip.

As usual, when Nobunaga and everyone with a small surname sit at the table, Ichigo, who doesn't know what's going on alone, is confused.

I don't know because there's no real table in this day and age.

"This is delicious! What dish!?

"Er, especially the first name... We call it Inari Sushi. I use rice flavoured with vinegar, and maybe it's close to sushi."

"Inari sushi? Why Inari?

"Come on? I wonder why. Someone must have called me that first, but that's what they called me when I was born."

"Young! Sounds like a mound!

"True. Good luck."

Somehow I wanted to eat it and I made sushi, but the problem is the name. Inari is God's name.

Is it strange to make it Ming's dish, and do we have to decide that it was its name at some point?

Let the future scholar take care of history.

The vinegar rice goes well with the sweet and spicy flavoured stained fried dishes and they do taste good.

"This is still good rice, too. It's nothing like Ozhang's rice."

Yeah. Some rice we eat is delicious because it's a near-future rice grown in a space fortress. Besides, white rice is rare in this era.

Katsuzaburo and his surnames are here and they see sushi on the rice mound and are happy to get along. It's a coincidence, but it's time to prune.

I also think they misunderstood me as having prepared the edge.

Ichigo is eating in surprise. Everyone eats a lot, so in the middle of the table you want to pile up like a mountain. There's sushi, but is that enough?

――――――――――――――――――

Lord Nobunaga has an anecdote about Ichigo Takikawa's clerk, and it is noted that Ichigo, who was there when Ichigo visited Kuyuan's house, liked it and made him clerk.

Nobunaga late in life is also said to have overflowed himself with a benefit that he really wanted for his own minister. But it is on record that Hisashi Ikeda, who knows at the time, said that Nobunaga had advised more than anyone that there would never be more ministers on a horse for a long time than that.
