Now with such an excellent eldest son as Matsushoumaru as his heir, Kuroda Vocational High School is finally relatively reassuring, as long as he can beat the world down, and Matsushoumaru can always be so humble and studious, humble in his work, kind to people, and visionary, the future of the Kuroda family can still be kept.

As long as Kuroda Vocational High School can bring down the world, and Matsujumaru can always be so open-minded and studious, humble in his work, kind to people, and full of vision, the future Kuroda family can still hold on to this world.

At this time, Kuroda's junior surname, who had just turned twelve, (Goto) came to report something. Matsujumaru bowed respectfully to Kuroda Vocational High School, then left the room and went back to his room to practice calligraphy.

This is Matsujumaru's habit, for important political affairs, if Kuroda Vocational High School asks him to participate, he will tell him to stay as soon as possible, if he doesn't speak, it means that he doesn't need to participate in this matter, and he will deliberately avoid it.

Relatively speaking, Matabei is definitely the most capable one among this group of small surnames, but Kuroda Vocational High School only let him get in touch with the most ordinary affairs.

Kuroda vocational high school doesn't have an opinion about him.,It's just that the way you do things before is a little high-profile.,Historically, it's because of his character.,So and Kuroda Nagamasa can't co-prosper at all.,Although this is actually mainly the reason for Kuroda Nagamasa's jealousy.,But if it weren't for Youbei's own too strong character.,There wouldn't have been a falling out between the two people.,There won't be one of the "Osaka Seven No Fathers" Goto Matabei Kiji.

Even when defending Osaka, Goto Matabei and Sanada Yukimura didn't have a good relationship, both of them were strong generals, and in the end both of them paid with their lives, but it was an impossible battle to win.

Kuroda Vocational High School is really aware of Matabei's character, so he hopes to beat and hone him in this way, of course, before that, he talked to Matabei about this matter, and sincerely told him his intentions.

Otherwise, with the character of Matabei, if he is unknowing, he is so disregarded by his lord, he will definitely have other ideas, and when the time comes, he will still have some affection for the Kuroda family, and it is really hard to say.

"My lord." The guard shouted loudly.

"It's another guard, what's the matter?" Kuroda slowly began to pack up the chessboard and chess pieces, and asked him with a smile.

"Hey! My lord, I really need to tell my lord about something. ”

"Oh! What's the matter, you just say it. ”

"Hey! My lord, in fact, what I want to tell you about this time is not about the affairs of my Kuroda family. ”

"It's not about the Kuroda family, is it?" Kuroda Vocational High School looked at Youbei playfully, this twelve-year-old boy is now almost one meter five meters tall, even now he is already considered an elder, since the thing he wants to tell is not about the Kuroda family, what will it be, Kuroda Vocational High School is very curious.

"It's some of the subordinates before the next family, and I hope to be able to take refuge in the Kuroda family." Matabei said.

"Who are the original subordinates of the Goto family?"

"My lord, I was a subordinate of Goto Kei in the Omi Province period, mainly responsible for the construction of some castles, and because of this, I have some prestige, so I am collectively called the Cave Taizhong."

"The cave is too many?" Kuroda said in surprise, and even his pitch unconsciously increased by two points.

"Hey! The lord is the cave many. Matabei said affirmatively.

The Cave Taizhong was active during the Warring States period of the Wa Kingdom, and a group of craftsmen and craftsmen composed of more than 10 small families were mainly engaged in masonry. They were mainly engaged in the construction of stone walls in temples and castles, and because their technical work in stone construction was affirmed by the surrounding lords and temple forces, they were also called stone craftsmen or stone wall craftsmen

The name Anatari was originally named because most of these people lived in Anatari at the foot of Mt. Hiei in Omi Province, and it has been used as a place name until now. The construction of the stone wall of Enryakuji Temple, the construction of the Monmae town of the Hiyoshi Taisha Shrine, the construction of Sakamoto Castle, and the construction of the historical Azuchi Castle Ishigaki.

As a result, these skilled workers, who were originally only responsible for the masonry tasks of the monastery, were able to obtain relatively high incomes by virtue of their superb technical level.

Because of their activity, they completed the construction of the stone walls of the major castles under the influence of Oda Nobunaga and Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and the stone walls of many castles of the Tokugawa family during the Edo period were also completed by the Ota Tashi of the cave under the command of migrant workers recruited from various feudal domains throughout the country.

And the Ishigaki craftsmen who appeared in the form of the cave Taizhong were first started by the Goto family. It is recorded in history that Goto Matabei Kiji once taught Kato Kiyomasa a secret book about the construction of Ishigaki, such as the "Secret Copy of the Castle Ishigaki", which is a secret book dedicated to the construction of castle walls.

In April of the first year of Motowa (1615 AD), Goto Matabei handed over his younger brother Hikohachi (later the first Goto Sabei Guard) to him before the Osaka Summer Battle was taken, and told him that he knew about the Goto family's "Ishigaki Gentosho" about the construction of Ishigaki, and told him that he should keep it and not pass it on.

In the eighth year of Motowa (1622 AD), after the influence of the Osaka Summer Battle had basically subsided, Goto Sabei finally carried this secret book of the Goto family, and it was also the secret of the Goto family as a family treasure, and began the career of the stone craftsman, and since then, this secret biography, according to the requirements of Goto Matabei, has basically been passed down from son to son of the Goto family, and this secret book has also become the largest property of the Goto family.

In addition to the Goto family, which was the founder and the leading elder brother, there were more than a dozen families, such as the Kurita family, the Hasaka family, and the Ido family, which were the head of the Goto family after leaving Omi Province. And after the Edo period, it continued to exist as a relatively close organization.

During the thirteenth generation period of Anatsushi, a company called Awata Construction was opened, and it is said that business was still very good, and before Kuroda Vocational High School crossed, it was already fifteen generations in business.

"Since they are developing well in the Omi Province, why did they come to join my Kuroda family? Because listening to you, the Goto family has actually been away from Omi Province for many years, isn't it? ”
