Warring States Eagle

Zhengliang was delayed for nearly a day near the Imari Bay of the Matsuura Army in the Hizen Kingdom of Kyushu due to the lord's robbery of a civilian girl. Waiting for someone to have to think about spending the night there tonight.

Let's go to the town where we visited at noon, let's not talk about the commotion caused by the hundreds of cloaked people and samurai troops who were waiting half a mile away at this time. Machiko's accommodation conditions were not acceptable to Zhengliang.

There are generally two types of buildings used to entertain guests in Machiko, one is a long house and the other is a hotel.

The longhouse is equivalent to the tube building of the later generations. A long and narrow house is divided into many rooms (the average townsman lives in one room per household), narrow and crowded. Once someone quarrels in one room, it will be heard by the whole longhouse. .These longhouses were originally the specific dormitories of the samurai ashigaru in Imari Castle. Later, Imari Castle was demolished by the slave team of the Roche family, and these longhouses were left behind and became the houses where the local people lived.

In addition to long houses, there are hotels that can also provide accommodation for tourists.These hotels are completely different from those of later generations. Strictly speaking, they are not real hotels.

This kind of local hotel is generally called "wooden rental house".The specific situation inside is that a Datong shop (which can be understood as the appearance of all the beds side by side) can accommodate dozens of people. The shop is covered with wooden floors, with a big fire pit in the middle and beds all around.In order to accommodate more people, some stores even build beds on top of the beds, doubling the number of beds.

The shop with a better environment has two floors.The first floor is Datong shop.The second floor is a single room.These single rooms are only a few square meters in size.It is for people who have a little money and don't want to sleep in Datong bunk, but the price is much more expensive.

And these hotels generally only provide accommodation but no meals.Therefore, ordinary travelers have to bring their own food when they go out. When they arrive at these hotels, they cook by themselves. The hotels only provide cooking places and a certain amount of firewood (if it is not enough, you have to pay for it), everything is self-help.

For the convenience of merchants and knights on horseback, the hotel usually has a stable behind the hotel and a warehouse to store goods.However, the hotel does not provide safekeeping services for general personal belongings.They are kept by the passengers themselves.However, the environment of the hotel is really bad, especially the Datong shop. Whether it is placed under the body as a mattress or covered as a quilt, it is all straw mats.The two bunks were close together, and there was no place to store personal belongings at all. Many thieves focused on the inn, looking for opportunities in the inn. [

An inn that is better than a "wooden rental house" is called a "hatago".The living environment is better than the "wooden rental house", and meals can be provided.

In addition, some local places with hot springs will also build hotels near the hot springs.This kind of hotel with hot springs is the most advanced hotel in this era.It is called a "sento".Of course, you have to pay separately for staying in a hotel and soaking in hot springs.

The hot spring is also an important means to attract customers.Many travelers are exhausted.Go inside and take a hot bath.The whole body is comfortable, the bones are soft, who wants to go out?So he stayed in the hotel.

It is said that there are more than 6000 hot springs in various places in Wa country, because the water in these hot springs is always bubbling, so they were first called "hell soup", which means hot pools like hell.Later, people felt that the name was not good, so they changed the name to "Sentang".Temples, shrines, and local daimyos control a large number of hot springs as sources of finance.There are quite a few hot springs in the Hizen, Higo, and Bungo countries within the territory of the Luo family. These hot springs are all controlled by the Luo family's cabinet. Some sulfur-rich hot springs are used as military facilities for the Luo family. The army is recuperating.Others were set up as inns, controlled by the Roche House and the God House, as a source of income.

Travelers from all over the country often live in the above-mentioned places, which can be described as places where dragons and tigers are hidden. Many well-known secret agents will also choose to exchange information in their hands here. It is really a paradise for secret agents.Therefore, these places are also the key monitoring places of the Luo family's intelligence cabinet, and in order to strengthen the monitoring of these hotels, the Luo family's law clearly stipulates that when the citizens build a hotel, they must register with the local cabinet.

In addition to being a paradise for information exchange, it is also a place where wanderers from all over the world gather. They can inquire about information from various places here, and then decide their next goal.There are even rap and pipa blind monks who gather here, compiling what they see and hear into jokes or even songs, forming a unique culture.

Of course, for the troops and officials of the Luo family, apart from the accommodation mentioned above, there is also a special place for them to stay.That is the unique inn of the Luo family, which is jointly controlled by the Cabinet of the Interior and the Cabinet of Intelligence.The most basic function of these post stations is to provide supplies and rest places for the military forces and officials of the Luo family in various places, and to be responsible for raising horses for transporting supplies and delivering information.That is to say, "pass the horse system".

However, since the system of these post stations has just started and has not yet been laid in the area near Imari Bay, Zheng Liang is destined to not be able to rest at the post station tonight.In desperation, Zheng Liang had to stay in the local village overnight.It's just that when the cloaked group of more than [-] people and the standing samurai joint team appeared outside the village, it caused panic among the villagers in the village.In the end, Cheng Fuxinzhong and other two village leaders came forward to appease him, and he calmed down again.

After solving the problem of accommodation, the next step is the problem of food.In fact, Zhengliang's guards also brought rations with the army, but Zhengliang planned to eat with the villagers on a whim, so he soon suffered.

Although the postnatal life of the residents in the Luo family's territory has been greatly improved, an ordinary household can have an occasional meal of rice (usually miscellaneous grains are the main food), a plate of dried radishes, and a few green vegetables. It was a hearty meal.

Not to mention meat, due to the influence of culture, ordinary people seldom eat meat in their homes (unless they are from untouchable people, in this era, eating pork is considered to be a blasphemy against God , only the untouchables at the bottom of society who are responsible for killing cattle and pigs will eat these meats), and an occasional meal of fish or eggs would be good.

After the Luo family came to power, in order to improve the physique of the people, they started to eat meat. First, meat was added to the meals of the army and officials.Secondly, promote the development of wine houses such as gourmet houses in the territory.Under such a policy, many citizens in the territory have begun to accept meat.
