Subject:help translate edo period japanese text on double oban sheet
Posted By: francis minvielle Sat, Sep 16, 2023 IP: 2a01:e0a:871:8270:2d

This double oban page carries a text. Can you help me translate it? It is the backing of a surimono.

This is a part of the drafting about an agreement on the rent paid by the farmer in case of re-renting to a servant, according to the amount of crops produced e.g. azuki beans, big beans, millet etc. in addition to the annual tax that the farmer should normally pay to the lord of the manor.

With regards,
I.Nagy
