"what?"

Chuemon, who was discussing with the old middlemen, looked stunned, and the old middlemen next to him didn't understand what was going on.

It was originally said that the Tokugawa family would meet with French Minister Roche and have a cup of afternoon tea together. Everyone thought that it might be the Tokugawa family who thanked the French for their "righteousness" and took two million to the shogunate, so they summoned them to show their favor.

After all, in East Asian culture, being called by the feudal monarch personally means that you are dealing with power, and it is the treatment that can be enjoyed by the most favored and most favored people.

"So you want to build a French-style pavilion in Edo Castle?" Matsudaira Qixuan thought to himself that his eldest nephew had no interest in France at all.

"And it was the French who funded the construction of the Odai?" Mizuno Tadashi was really inexplicable.

In the history of the shogunate, it was common for princes to build palaces for General Tokugawa or Odai, and it was not unusual at all. But when did foreigners pay and build palaces for Odai?

The shogunate used to do this purely to consume the financial resources of the princes, so that the princes have no money to rebel or something. Now the French want to rebel against the Tokugawa family? Are you kidding here?

The Tokugawa family must have given Roche some ecstasy. With his word-by-word speed, there is probably no problem in hypnotizing others, and it must be awful to persuade others.

"So the French gave the shogunate 60 official shogunate quotas?" Chungemon looked at Ooka Tadashi who came to pass the news, worried that the Tokugawa family must have betrayed some of the shogunate's benefits to France.

"Yes, Shanggai had a very happy conversation with the French minister, and the minister promised so at the moment." Ooka Tadashi is a microphone, and he is only responsible for telling you what the Tokugawa family must say.

"What did Kamikaku ever allow the French minister?" Ii Naobi seemed to have touched something in his heart.

"Nothing!"

Yes, maybe the Tokugawa family must be a diplomatic genius? Is it about the 006 strange monarch in "European Wind and Cloud"? Management and military are both 0, but the diplomatic weird is given to 6.

"Since Shangju has agreed with France, I will wait to comply." Naobi Ii is still an old-school official, and since the decision of the Tokugawa family has been made, he will just implement it.

As for the defense and remonstrance, this is not a world-shattering event, or an important matter related to the safety of the shogunate, so he naturally didn't bother to have a disagreement with the Tokugawa family.

Just like in "Yes, Minister", Arnold is the man whom God calls him God, and he is the most powerful person in the whole of England. But as long as the British Prime Minister must do something, if he can't lead elsewhere, he can only do it in the end. After all, apart from that one monarch, the others are just ministers.

"That's it..." Chuemon had nothing to stop, and immediately agreed.

Several veterans nodded in response, and built a French palace in Edo Castle, anyway, the Tokugawa family decided that he was happy. By next year, there will be 60 official-funded students dispatched to France with students studying in the UK. This is a bit difficult to handle. Not to mention that Edo University has not resumed classes until now, and even though classes are in, there is no French teacher.

The communication between Roche and the shogunate is unimpeded. That's because Roche can speak English, and the English is quite good, so naturally there is no obstacle to communication with the shogunate. The shogunate sent sixty French officials to the shogunate. What about language studies for the preparatory course?

Send someone to Yokohama to ask.

Roche’s answer was very straightforward. Don’t you warriors all know Chinese characters, it’s enough if you know Chinese characters. Two French teachers who can speak Chinese characters in Shanghai will come here and you’re done. Learn a few hundred vocabulary first, and you will be successful if you understand it in daily communication. After I arrived in France, I left it in the French heap, and within three months, I would be able to speak French.

It's quite right to think. Now that the French have expected it, just do it like this. First select 60 children of the Kimoto royal family and send them to Yokohama to learn French with the French.

The topic returns to the reconstruction of Edo. Eiffel's plan for Edo has not yet come out, and the cleaning of the ruins of the castle town has only just begun. After all, the ruins of most of the cities have not been assisted by modern industrial machinery. They are all pulled by people and carried on their shoulders. It will not end within a few months.

The shogunate allowed the people in the rural and suburban areas of Edo to pull home as firewood for waste wood, but the disposal was fairly fast, mainly because the tens of thousands of victims were not easy to deal with.

After all, there were more than four thousand samurai who belonged to the shogunate and various feudal vassals among the dead. Those who still have survivors must come here to find them, and then enter the land for security or something. This identification process alone is quite a long time.

Fortunately, it's winter, and the weather is so cold that it won't be bad for a while. Otherwise, Chuemon ordered the cremation directly, and everyone would take a little ashes back. There is a suspense.

In Yokohama, in addition to arranging victims in various buildings that have been built, a large number of warehouses and warehouses have been built along the harbor. When it is built, people will be placed in. Anyway, as long as the straw is spread on the floor and there is a bed, you can sleep. When the victims are gone, these warehouses and warehouses can be used again, providing the best of both worlds.

On the Edo side, a large number of people were settled in the temples and farmhouses around Edo. It was impossible to settle them, and they could only be temporarily settled by using tents and other facilities. The tent was supported by the French, and it looked pretty good. A tent can house more than a dozen people in a squeeze~lightnovelpub.net~ with a small fire in the middle, you can spend the night.

Eiffel, who devotes himself to the reconstruction of Edo, is now wearing a military raincoat and riding a horse around Edo to record various situations in Edo. I also obtained a map of the Edo canal as a reference.

Anyway, his remarks about building roads, so as to be suppressed, were sent to the ears of the old middle-aged people, and the old middle-aged people gave this young man a thumbs up.

Yes, he is a good guy!

Even if I was not used to seeing foreigners very much, Ii Naobi still said that Eiffel was a man who really worked for the shogunate. In the future, if you have the opportunity, you can hire him to rebuild something else for the shogunate. It doesn't matter if the salary is higher.

As for the Edo Railway Loop Line and the construction of sewerage projects, the old man is not inconsistent. As long as the cost is not too great, he will go with him. Now it is to let Mizuno Tadashi and our little friend Shuroku, as the instructors of the shogunate, assist him in land acquisition and expansion of the streets.

As long as the land acquired for the expansion of the streets, no matter who it belonged to, it was purchased by the shogunate. It is expected that there would be no daring to oppose the feudal government.
