Chapter 449 Sino-British Economy and Sino-British War (9)
"You guys, Mount Fuji is so vast, why is no one farming on the mountain?" Kitaichiro asked.
The passengers were so surprised that they didn't know how to answer this inexplicable question. When they were stunned, Kitaichi continued to ask: "Everyone, Japan seized North Korea. Now there are so many poor people who are almost starved to death on the streets of Japan. Why don't they move these people to North Korea? Not only are the poor not going to North Korea, but they have never heard of the rich going to North Korea."
"...ah...indeed." Some people resonated with this proposal. So many Japanese people were terrible in their hometowns and almost starved to death. If they were moved to North Korea, there would be a way out, right?
The current economic downturn is now, and it is not the poor who can ride the train. Even the middle-income class in Japan, these people are still unable to complete effective independent thinking. Kitaichiko knew the level of these people in revolutionary propaganda and gave his own answer: "Because you can't get the resources to live in North Korea..."
After all, it is the middle-income class in Japan, and the minimum thinking ability is always a bit. After listening to Kitaichiko’s story, they gradually woke up. North Korea is now unable to support more Japanese people, even the Koreans themselves, so a large number of Koreans came to Japan. For China, occupying North Korea has no economic benefit.
As for why China attacked Myanmar instead of North Korea, Kitaichiko also explained it very clearly. During the Japanese-Qing War, after Japan occupied North Korea, why did Japan chase the Qing army and continue to fight. If Japan had not signed the Treaty of Shimonoseki at that time, if Japan received a large amount of compensation, all Japan's previous efforts would not be rewarded.
Japanese newspapers have had similar comments after the war between China and Britain, and some of the passengers have read it. Kitaichiko said it in a simple and easy way, especially when he explained clearly that "Before solving the British problem, China will never take the initiative to attack North Korea in order not to cause trouble." The passengers suddenly realized.
After the war between the Northeast government and Japan, Japan no longer believes that North Korea is safe. It is hard to say when it comes to knowing that China is just not fighting now, but it is hard to say in the future. Instead, it makes Japanese passengers feel that there is no more reasonable explanation than this.
The middle-aged man in the suit, Iguchi, became very respectful to Kitaichi. "Mr. Kono, I admire your knowledge very much. I have another thing I want to ask for. I wonder what you think about the current outline of domestic economic construction? Can this outline save Japan?"
When Kitaichi heard the middle-aged Ikeguchi ask directly the question of "Can you save Japan?", and when everyone around him looked at him with anticipation, he felt that these people should have the same idea. Even these middle-income Japanese people felt that they had to "save Japan". The strong demand for revolution in Japan did make Kitaichi see hope for victory.
Such a revolutionary situation did not make Kitachi happy, because it was not the revolutionary party like Kitachi who caused the rising demand for civil revolution in Japan, but the economy that was completely declining in Japan. Even the middle-income class had to consider whether it was feasible to adopt the economic program proposed by the revolutionaries, let alone what kind of terrible life the bottom class lived, and how many people starved to death on the streets every day.
At this time, the passengers on the bus were already surrounded by Kitaichiko without realizing it, hoping to get more views from this obviously scholarly "Mr. Kono".
Kitaichiki explained: "If every farmer in Japan now has his own land, the food grown from these lands is enough for them to eat by themselves. The minimum income of each worker every day is enough for them to buy three boxes of rice. Do you think this kind of Japan has come out of the current dilemma?"
The passengers all nodded, and Mr. Inuchi replied loudly: "If this is true, the imperial kingdom is the land of imperial deeds!"
Kitaichiro did not want to mention the Emperor. At this time, he had already known that as long as the Emperor was in power, such a life would never be possible. But Kitaichiro did not make any anti-Emperor remarks, but continued to explain on the matter: "What the outline of Japan's domestic construction discusses is exactly how to achieve such a situation. If you have time to look at the outline of Japan's domestic construction, follow two lines. One is the rural Japanese countryside, through land redemption and land ownership, so that the plunderers can have their own land. The other is urban industry, by ensuring the minimum wage, so that the urban population can support themselves. You can look at these two lines. As for other discussions, you can put them aside."
Mr. Iguchi was a little puzzled, "Why don't you look at other comments? Are they wrong?"
"It has nothing to do with right or wrong." Kitaichi explained: "He is talking about their views, not about the outline of domestic construction in Japan. If you think you must read it, you might as well look at the comments. As long as you don't discuss whether the remaining food is enough for farmers to eat after paying taxes, you can eat it yourself. As long as you don't discuss whether the minimum wage for workers a day is enough for workers to buy 3 boxes of rice, it is not about the outline of domestic construction in Japan..."
The train was driving, but the originally boring journey became easier due to the heated discussion. The train departed from Tokyo stopped at the fourth stop and immediately got on many uniformed people. When they started walking in the carriage, the passengers felt a lot of pressure and all stopped to discuss. They quietly watched the people in uniforms checking the passengers one by one with a fierce look on their faces.
These people searched all the cars. There was no one they were looking for in the car, but there were people in the toilet. People in uniform surrounded the toilet and began to knock on the door hard. After a while, the people inside opened the door. The small toilet that could only accommodate one person was only Mr. Ineguchi in a suit. Seeing that Mr. Ineguchi was not Kitaichiko they were looking for, the people in the uniform pulled him out, searched the toilet carefully, and then looked at the windows. There was no sign of anyone escaping from here.
The captain in charge of the arrest made sure that Kitaichiro was not in the car, so he took out the enlarged photo for the people in the car to identify it, "Have anyone seen this person?"
Mr. Iguchi looked at the photo and couldn't help but open his eyes wide. The uniform team immediately asked in a stern tone: "Have you seen him?"
Under such pressure, Mr. Inuchi couldn't help swallowing his saliva and replied, "Isn't this Mr. Kono?"
When the uniform team heard this, they hurriedly asked, "Where is he?"
"He has gotten off at the previous stop," Mr. Inuchi replied.
The uniform team quickly asked the other passengers and got the same answer. When the captain of the team heard this, he punched the train seat with a hateful punch, "He actually let him run away! Send a report to the previous station immediately and ask them to search!"
Mr. Inuchi and other passengers who had an impression of Kitaichi were immediately arrested and experienced a very terrible day in the security room of the train station. When being interrogated, Mr. Inuchi and other unlucky passengers realized that this "Kono" was Kitaichi, and "Kono" was his pseudonym for escaping the mean.
The Japanese in the middle-income class all have their own living circles. In less than a day, these arrested passengers were released. If the arrested poor people, they must have to go through more interrogation. From the perspective of the deterrence of powerful institutions, it is an undesirable choice to release the caught person immediately.
When Mr. Iguchi returned home, he first thanked his father-in-law who rescued him and comforted his wife and children. When he finally could reflect on this matter alone, he found that he was interested in Kitaichi's remarks that caused this fright. This was not to say that there was no resentment, but Kitaichi's clear and penetrating narrative made Mr. Iguchi feel that he had opened the door to his own thoughts.
There was a newspaper at home, so Mr. Iguchi turned on the lights and looked it up. During this period, his wife asked Mr. Iguchi to rest several times, and the answer she got was, "You sleep first, I'll look for a while."
It was late at night, and Mr. Ineguchi returned to his bedroom exhausted. It was already two o'clock in the evening and his wife was sleeping soundly. Mr. Ineguchi was lying on the bed, wanting to sleep but unable to sleep. Kitaichiko was actually saying it was true. The newspapers that really introduced the outline of Japanese domestic construction all talked about the construction of rural and urban areas in Japan.
As long as the news is not about these two, most of them are to stir up trouble. It can be seen that many right-wing newspapers deliberately distort the original intention of Japan's domestic construction outline.
What surprised Mr. Ikeguchi even more was that he now discovered that the outline of Japan's domestic construction was based on the domestic revolutionary policy of President He Rui of the Republic of China and based on China's policy practice. In this regard, the newspapers supporting the outline of Japan's domestic construction did not hide at all, and clearly explained this to readers.
Learning from China? Mr. Iguchi was very surprised. But at some point, Mr. Iguchi was already asleep. Trying to understand the knowledge about Japan's future greatly consumed Mr. Iguchi's brain power, so that he was actually very tired.
In the next few days, Mr. Ikeguchi always wanted to see updated reviews in the newspaper. However, overnight, all the content about Japan's domestic construction outline disappeared, and the newspaper no longer even talked about the progress of the Sino-British War. All the content was about what projects the Japanese government continued to start, what activities the upper class participated in, as well as various interesting news and family matters.
If you only read the newspaper, you will feel that Japan is in peace and peace at this time. However, as long as you go on the street, there will be obvious increase in uniform patrolmen and all kinds of suspicious guys wandering on the street. From time to time, people will be questioned.
A few days later, Mr. Iguchi saw his younger brother coming in early in the morning, "Brother, I received the notice and go back to the army immediately."

"Is it going to fight?" Mr. Inuchi asked uneasily. He saw his younger brother shook his head, "I just said that all the troops would stop taking leave."
In the few days after my younger brother returned to the army, Mr. Ineguchi felt even more uneasy, as if he had verified this uneasiness. Mr. Ineguchi's father-in-law suddenly arrived at Mr. Ineguchi's house, "Ichiro, can you send a message to your younger brother and ask him to help ask your uncle what happened."
This uncle is not Mr. Ikeguchi's biological uncle, but Mr. Ikeguchi's wife's uncle. When Ikeguchi heard that something was wrong with his family, he felt a little nervous. He asked his father-in-law to sit down, and Ikeguchi asked what happened.
