Salary - Horoku

Japanese: 俸禄 - ほうろく

(1) Also written as fouroku, this was a stipend paid to imperial relatives and officials of the Ritsuryo Code in ancient times. Food stipends (fuko), ashiginu (a type of rice used in rice farming), cotton, cloth, etc. were given according to specific ranks, ranks, and official positions (as rank stipends, position stipends, rank stipends, and seasonal stipends). The fouroku system was established in the Taiho Code. (2) Under the early modern shogunate-han system, vassals who no longer had fiefs were given rice (rokumai or shorokumai) by their feudal lords. As shorokumai was provided from the shogunate's or feudal domain's storehouses, the recipients were called kuramaitori (storehouse rice takers), and this system was called the shoroku system. In the early Edo period, there were many local fiefs, but after that, the number of kuramaitori increased dramatically.

Japanese:

（１）封禄とも書き，古代，皇親や律令官人に支給した俸給。特定の身分や位階，官職などに応じ（位封・職封・位禄・季禄として），食封(じきふ)（封戸(ふこ)）・【あしぎぬ】・綿・布などが支給された。封禄制度は大宝令で整う。（２）近世幕藩体制下，知行地を持たなくなった家臣が領主から給与された扶持米（禄米・俸禄米）。俸禄米は幕府御蔵・藩蔵から支給されたので，受給者を蔵米取(くらまいとり)といい，この制度を俸禄制という。江戸時代初期には地方知行も多くみられたが，その後は蔵米取が激増。
