The samurai's salary was paid not to the individual, but to the house. Therefore, the salary that the samurai gets from the master is called [Iroku]. (1) Tokoyuki (2) Fussifune (3) salary. At that time, you may say that everything was managed by rice by the rice standard society and the rice standard economy if it says. The real society caused various problems in the money economy though the rice standard as made to the belief went well at first.
The samurai's sakabu was not issued to individuals, but was paid to the "family", so the samurai received from the lord was called "jialu". Sort out the types of Feng Lu, which are divided into three types: "Zhixing", "Holding Rice", and "Giving Gold". In ancient Japan, it belonged to the rice-based society, which practiced a rice-based economy, and it can be said that everything was managed by rice. This traditional rice standard system went well at the beginning, but the real society was a monetary economy, and many problems arose later.
If you keep it organized,
Iyaloku = (1) Toko + (2) Fussifu rice + (3) salary.
Tidy it up
Samurai's Jialu = Zhixing + Holding Rice + Giving Gold.
(1) Know what to do
[Tokiyuki] in (1) is to get a province, for example, to know 100 koku, to have land where 100 koku of rice can be harvested. In this case, it was calculated by the productiveability of rice even if it was an analogy residential land or wheat was produced. It is called a daimyo more than 10,000 Koku to know.
"Zhixing" is also the territory of the divided seal. For example, Baishi Zhixing refers to land with a production capacity of up to 100 stone meters. (Note: 1 stone equals 120 catties) In this way, even if it is residential land, or the production crop is wheat, everything must be converted into the possible production of rice. Knowing that more than 10,000 stones is called "Daimyo".
If the production potential of the province is 50,000 koku, it becomes a daimyo of 50,000 koku. However, because there is a farmer who makes rice, it is set up as a tax. Usually, 40% of 50,000 koku is a share of the daimyo by the ratio of [four public six people]. As a result, because 20,000 koku is a daimyo share, and one stone was assumed to be roughly one both, it becomes the salary of 20,000 cars. If it is 10,000 yen per car, the income is 200 million yen, and various fees to cash in are said to be a small company if it says annual sales of 200 million yen in modern times. There are a lot of servants, too and it becomes complicated for a moment more because there is a market price in grain much more.
If the possible production of the territory reaches 50,000 stones, it is the daimyo of 50,000 stones. But because there are also farmers on the land who grow rice, the rice is collected as a tax. The general ratio is "four public and six people", and 40% of the fifty thousand stones is the share that the daimyo deserves. As a result, the daimyo only received 20,000 stones, which was roughly equivalent to one or two stones, and 20,000 stones was also twenty thousand taels. Suppose one or two is equivalent to 10,000 yen, and the income is 200 million yen. Cash exchanges for rice also require various fees, and in modern times, the annual turnover of 200 million yen belongs to smaller companies. The large number of daimyo's courtiers, coupled with the change in the market price of grain, is even more complicated.
(2) Support rice
Next, [(2) Fufumai" is the one to get [Luroku] with rice. It was from 30 bales to about 400 bales depending on his status, but in other words, the in-kind payment of rice, the lower-class flagmoto and the imperial family had received dependent rice from the shogunate. For example, you will receive 25% in spring (February), 25% in summer (September), and the remaining 50% in winter (October). It is also called [Kirimai] because it was divided.
"Holding rice" means receiving rice as a pawn. Depending on the level of samurai status, it ranges from 30 to 400 taels, and in general, the method of "holding rice" is to distribute ready-made rice. The subordinate Kimoto and the Imperial Family did not have their own place of knowledge, and the Feng Lu they received from the shogunate was Fu Zhi Mi. "Fuzhi rice" is distributed three times a year, such as 25% in spring (February), 25% in summer (September), and the remaining 50% in winter. Because it is distributed in installments, "holding rice" is also known as "cutting rice".
(3) Give gold
The salary of (3) is literally cash. It is three cars and one minute a year in case of the samurai with the lowest position. The number of dice is applied to 3/1 of 3,000 and 1 though it is said 31 samurais [Sampin? In modern terms, it was about 325,000 yen per year, and life would have been tough.
"Give gold" as the text indicates, and receive the money in cash. If you are a samurai with the lowest status, you can receive three or two points a year. When laughing at samurai, people say "Trinity Samurai (サンピン?ざむらい)" because the "three" and "one" of three or two are exactly equivalent to the numbers on two dice. According to modern conversions, it is only about 325,000 yen per year, and life will certainly not be rich.
