　Tsukuda Island is located south of Chuo-ku, Chuo-ohashi Bridge, Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge, and Aioi Bridge are made, making it very convenient.

I did it.　When you enter the town, the old Tsukudaniya and the houses add a touch of taste.　

　The skyscrapers were also lined up, and until just a while ago, they could only cross by ferry.

But I can't believe it.

　Early in the morning, I visited Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine.

chief priest is sweeping the grounds with bamboo brooms.　I heard the sound of zazasars regularly,

Birds are singing on the branches of the trees. From the tranquility of the scene, the hustle and bustle of the surroundings looks like a lie.

　I decided to examine the history of Tsukuda Island.

 

　Honnoji Temple Change, 1582 (1582)

　Ieyasu Tokugawa, who was on the Oda side, was a fisherman of Settsukuda on the way from Sakai to Mikawa on the occasion of Honnoji Temple.

Magoemon Mori and others sent fishing boats and salted small fish at the beginning of the connection with Ieyasu.

Yeah.　On the way, Shiro Chaya was one of the people who spared their cooperation.

　“Edo Immigration” 1590 (1590)

　Ieyasu called out to 30 fishermen under Magoemon Mori and offered fish to the castle in Edo during the Edo period.

That's right. At that time, the place where he lived was Ando Tsushima Mamoru (accompany him in the event of a change, and acquainted with the forest)

It's inside the house.

　After that, they provided food in the Osaka Winter Camp Summer Camp and also served as secret ambassadors.　Also

They will continue for a long time, guarding intruders from the sea.

　Ieyasu is a very rewarding person, and then fishermen in Tsukuda below Mori Sonemon decided to have privileges in Edo.

It will be.

　"Hell net"

　In Osaka, fishing methods are much more advanced than Edo, and this hell net is a boat ride with six waterers, 7.

It is a fishing method in which you go offshore by boat, hand the net with three right hand and three left hand, and catch the fish with one net.

　Thanks to this fishing method, we were able to carry a large amount of fish to the castle.

"White fish fishing"

　The pattern on the black part of the head of the white fish was prized because it resembled the gate of Aoi. White fish moved from Ise

We planted it and let the fishermen of Tsukuda catch it. Even now, once a year, the "White Fish Offering Festival" is held.

"Open a store in Hon-Odawara-cho (now left bank of Nihonbashi River).} 

 In 1613 (1613), fish other than the supply to the castle were allowed to be sold outside the castle, and this was the Nihonbashi Fish Bank.

It's the foundation.　

 

"Tsukuda Island"

At the time of the second shogun Hidetada, reclamation of the tidal flat downstream of the Sumida River was recognized, and residents of Tsukuda reclaimed themselves.

But now Tsukuda

After healing, landfill continued, and Shin-Tsukuda and Tsukishima were made. The photo shows the people of Tsukuda

Sir. Don't you feel the atmosphere of an old warrior?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

　After Ieyasu Tokugawa's arrival, the flow from Hirakawa was changed, the Hibiya cove was reclaimed, and the Dosan moat was excavated to create the Nihonbashi River.

The riverbank that was built on both banks of the Nihonbashi River becomes the prototype of the fish market.

Yokkaichi, which was located at the mouth of the former Hirakawa River, is also moved here.

　

　

After that, this market flourished, and at that time, some of the people who contributed greatly were fishermen from the former Tsukudamura in Osaka.

　Ieyasu, along with Edo's immigration, attracts 30 fishermen from Settsu Tsukuda Village, who had a long friendship, including Magoemon Mori, to catch fish in Edo Bay and offer it to the castle.

　In Osaka, the technology of catching fish was excellent, and Tsukuda fishermen were able to catch a large amount of fish in Edo Bay at once.　

The rest of the fish will be sold to townspeople in Honmachi-cho, the north side of the Nihonbashi River, in 1613 (1613).

After that, residents of Osaka relocated one after another, and in 1641 (1641), 14 fish wholesalers lined up.

　From the castle, sometimes there are 5,000 sea bream orders a day, and it is very prosperous, but at that time, the caught fish is filled with water on a large boat, put in a cage, and demand from the castle Prepare for

　After that, a stick hand gesture (Note: 1) came to buy the fish and sold it in the town.　

The stick hand gesture and a kind of doorboard that takes care of the wholesaler were placed side by side on the riverbank and sold it with a stick hand, but the doorboard was called a board boat, and its right to use It will be traded as a board ship right (very expensive).

　Even now, many of the companies named "Tsukuda What's" on the banks are from Tsukuda Island.

In addition, some Tsukiji companies keep curtains for more than 400 years.

Note: Sold with a stick-handed balance rod. They stand between the fish wholesaler and the restaurant and do business.
