The law was completed in 1786. and was jointly signed by Ie and his two colleges, Yonabaru Ryōku (与那原 良矩) and Fukuyama Chōki (譜久山 朝紀). Later, it was officially promulgated and implemented by the king in the same year.[1][3][4] The mountain forests in Nakagami and Kunigami were withered. Ie was sent there to deal with it.
