Internal benefit - Naitoku

Japanese: 内得 - ないとく

Also written as uchitoku. Abbreviation of uchi no tokubun. A term that often appears in rice field sales certificates and donation letters from the Muromachi and Sengoku periods in the provinces surrounding Kinai, such as Omi, Echizen, and Mino. It is expressed as miyo no uchitoku or miyo no tokubun, and in most cases refers to the private share of the miyoshu (headman's land), which was transferred through buying and selling. The Echizen Saifukuji document, dated February 9, 1515 (Eisho 12), shows the sale of two tan of rice fields belonging to the Hiranai miyo. However, since the sale was for the miyoshu's share of the nouchitoku, the headman (headman's landowner) would be responsible for the main tax and other expenses, and so no miscellaneous public duties would be incurred for the field.

Japanese:

内徳とも書く。〈内之得分〉の略称。室町･戦国期の近江，越前，美濃など畿内周辺諸国の田畠売券や寄進状などにしばしば現れる用語で，〈名（みよう）之内得〉〈名内得分〉などと表現され，多くの場合名主（みようしゆ）の私的得分である加地子（かじし）分を指し，売買などで移動した。越前西福寺文書の1515年(永正12)2月9日付春庾田地売券は，平内名（みよう）所属の田地2反を売却したものであるが，それには名の内得分を売るのであるから，本役などは自分(名主)の方で負担するので，この田地には万雑公事（まんぞうくじ）は一切かからない旨記されている。
