In rural Japan, landlords own about half of the country's land, while more than 70% of farmers have no land or only very little land;

"The rich have fields stretching for miles, while the poor have no place to stand" has become a sharp contrast in the class contradictions in rural Japan.

Japanese landlords collected rent from farmers in the most backward form of rent in kind. Regardless of whether it was a good year or a bad year, farmers had to pay half or even three-quarters of the annual harvest as rent to the landlords... So, relatively speaking, the Fujiwara family was indeed quite "merciful".

Although from the perspective of actually promoting the war, there are few innocent people in Japan from top to bottom, and it is not unfair to be hit by a few nuclear bombs, but in the final analysis, it is the upper class that is

The problem of aristocratic landowners.

"So what is our family's total assets?"

Including the overseas banks and stocks I know about, the scale should be no less than 80 billion yen. As for the specific amount, I haven't completed the calculation yet due to lack of manpower and time.

It seems that I don’t need to look for a rich woman to support me in this life.

"Agent, pass on my orders."

"1. The Fujiwara family and the companies under its name will continue to recruit more college students who cannot find jobs after graduation. It doesn't matter if they recruit too many. They can be employed first and used later..." Don't think that because Japanese college students are scarce at this time, they are valuable.

In fact, due to the earthquake, the global economic crisis, and various mismanagements by the Japanese cabinet (which I won’t go into detail here), the Japanese economy suffered a severe blow:

以后世统计的GDP数据为参照,1930年是1929年的80%,1931年是1929年的77%,而1931年的进出口数据更是仅仅只有1929年的一半出头。所以,此时的日本大学生一样面临后世中国大学生所面临的窘境--毕业即失业。

Among the university graduates in 1930 alone, one-third were unable to find jobs, leading to a famous saying among Japanese university students at the time: "Although I graduated from university..."

Otherwise, why do you think the Japanese Communist Party still has so many intellectuals supporting it despite being destroyed time and time again? Isn't it because the pie they painted was so delicious?

It's April now, and another wave of unemployed people have just graduated from school. Why not seize them now? These intellectuals might not succeed in revolution in three years, but they can still be very useful in waging a war of public opinion. Especially since the Japanese government is still desperately trying to save face.

"Yes."

"2. The Fujiwara clan is no longer allowed to engage in usury. Even for loans to merchants, the annual interest rate cannot exceed 20%, and farmers cannot exceed 10%." Loan usury is indeed a good business that can easily evade taxes, but Fujiwara Kanezane looked at it with disgust, as if he had become Ma Fubao.

However, lowering the interest rate too low is not an option, because then the benefits will not reach the lower-class farmers and merchants, but will be swallowed up by certain vampires. Mark is very clear about this.

"Yes."

"3. For those who rent land owned by the Fujiwara clan, the maximum rent is only 30%. For those whose sons join the army, the rent is 20%. For those who join the Osaka and Kyoto divisions, the rent is only 15%!"

Like Chinese farmers, Japanese farmers also lived a hard life and were generally relatively honest, making them the best source of soldiers.

As for the farmers who still have to rely on renting land to survive near a city with a strong commercial atmosphere like Osaka, they are probably mostly the honestest of the honest people; honest people have always been the best source of soldiers.

Since the Osaka Division is a notorious "cunning division", why not just pull everyone into this division!

The agent had no objections to the first two orders, but she expressed some doubts about the last one: "Commander, this might touch some sensitive nerves."

"It's alright, just say it's a reward to the people after I became king! Everything is for His Majesty the Emperor!"

A day later, Fujiwara Shinichi rushed from Kyoto upon hearing the news. As soon as he entered his son's villa, he roared, "Reducing the rent and interest, do you really want to be the emperor?!"

145 His Majesty the Emperor Vomited Blood During Sex!

"Reducing rent and interest rates, do you really want to be the emperor?!"

Fujiwara Shinichi's roar shook the entire room.

The Fujiwara clan's chief steward, the acting lady, who was cleaning Fujiwara no Kanezane's ears, glanced indifferently at the Fujiwara clan head, who immediately lowered his voice: "Kane no Kanezane... what... what do you want to do?"

Fujiwara Kanezane ignored him and lay on the agent's thigh until his ears were cleaned. Then he shook his head and sat up, complaining in Chinese: "Dongmei, can you please not use the black and hard thing under your crotch to hit the back of my head? I feel like my body is not clean anymore."

"That's just my gun. Please don't use such ambiguous words... Sorry, I'll keep it well from now on."

"I suspect you did it on purpose."

“How could that be?”

The two chatted for a few minutes, oblivious to the others. Then Fujiwara Kanezane turned his gaze towards his nominal father: "What?"

"I'm telling you, what do you want to do?" "Didn't you say it just now?" "Huh?"

"I want to be the emperor!"

If Fujiwara no Shinichi's angry words just now were considered treasonous, then Fujiwara no Kanezane's words were absolutely rebellious.

The Emperor is an incomparably sacred figure in the hearts of the Japanese. Even the slightest disrespect towards him can lead to someone threatening you with "Heavenly Punishment." One example can illustrate this point.

The Japanese Communist Party has been making a fuss for so many years, shouting countless radical slogans and doing countless radical things, but until now, they still dare not propose the most important thing: overthrow the emperor and abolish the emperor system.

As a communist, you don't even want to abolish the "emperor system", which is so corrupt and backward that even capitalism wants to destroy it. What kind of bullshit communism are you doing?

It’s not that the Japanese Communist Party doesn’t want to mention it, but that it can’t.

Because, every time someone tried to raise this slogan, not only from outsiders, but even within the Japanese Communist Party itself, it would provoke fierce or subtle opposition, so in the end, nothing came of it. So, you can imagine how shocking Fujiwara Kanezane's words were.

However, Fujiwara Shinichi was only stunned for a moment, without any panic on his face. Instead, he looked seriously into Fujiwara Kanezane's eyes for a long time before asking in a low voice: "Do you really want to be the emperor?"

“…”

Someone who was just casually talking suddenly lost his temper. My stupid Odou-san, what do you want to do?

What do you want to do?

I mean I want to be the emperor! The emperor!

Could it be that you are actually a traitor who has been hiding for a long time?

Fujiwara Shinichi misunderstood his son's stunned expression as a tacit agreement. After a few seconds of hesitation, he nodded and said, "Alright, you already have the qualifications to be the emperor, not to mention you've been crowned a king."

"Well, what method do you want to use? Kill Hirohito directly, or..." "Wait, wait, wait..."

Fujiwara Kanezane extended his hand, then rubbed his forehead, trying to clear his mind:

"Father, do you understand what I am saying, what you are saying? I am saying that I, Fujiwara no Kanezane, want to be the emperor, the emperor who lives in the Tokyo Imperial Palace." "I understand. Is there any problem with that?"

Seeing Fujiwara no Shinichi's nonchalant attitude, Fujiwara no Kanezane became interested: "Why, father, can you directly appoint me as emperor?"

"What appointment... The Emperor is a descendant of the Fujiwara clan..." "Oh... You're talking about this again..."

Fujiwara Kanezane lost interest again in an instant.

He was familiar with the history of the Fujiwara clan and was of course aware of the so-called "blood connection between the Japanese emperor and the Fujiwara clan."

However, that illusory "right of inheritance" is not completely useless nowadays, but it is only somewhat useful.

Unless there is absolute violence.

As if he could see what his son was thinking, Fujiwara Shinichi shook his head:

"You know nothing about the power of the Fujiwara clan and the current situation of the nobles... Well, since you have this idea, leave the rest to me." After saying that, the current head of the Fujiwara clan turned and left the room. The anger that had surged into his head when he first came in had completely disappeared.

Um?

gone?

What does he want to do? Forget it, just ignore him.

"Master, do you want me to investigate your father..."

"No need. What earth-shattering things can this old bastard do? He's just looking for someone to blow his trumpet or something." "Won't that affect your plans?"

"It doesn't matter. If he finds someone to support me, at least he won't cause me any trouble behind my back... Besides, do you think I look like someone with a plan? Just have fun!"

".."

Fujiwara no Kanezane did not take this "little matter" to heart, but he did not know that Fujiwara no Shinichi immediately visited some nobles in Osaka and Kyoto who were on good terms with the Fujiwara clan and had great influence.

Soon after, strange rumors began to spread among the aristocracy, starting from the major cities of Kansai such as Kyoto and Osaka, extending all the way to Tokyo in Kanto, and even throughout Japan. For example, "The Emperor has been childless because he has done something evil that has angered the gods."

For example, "The Great Kanto Earthquake a few years ago was caused by the imperial family's disrespect for Amaterasu"; "Japan's economic troubles in recent years are due to the emperor's arbitrary interference in government"; "All three emperors were disabled, and that was because of such and such"...

Although the Japanese people are generally loyal and respectful to the emperor, this does not mean that the Japanese nobles really take the emperor seriously; the nobles and the people have always been two different creatures.

Let’s not talk about the emperors who were treated as air and playthings, and even killed, insulted and raped before the Meiji Restoration. Even after the Meiji Restoration, was things any better? It’s funny!

After being together for hundreds or even thousands of years, who doesn't know how many hairs there are around each other's butthole?

Let alone the Fujiwara clan, the main houses of the Genji, Taira, and Tachibana clans, as well as their branch houses, had fewer records of the imperial family's secrets and jokes.

If you really think that the emperor can have the final say and his words are law among the aristocracy, especially the old-school aristocracy, it only shows that you know nothing about the politics of Japan and even human beings. In short, once the rumor started, it quickly reached the ears of His Majesty the Emperor.

Naturally, Mr. Showa was furious, but there was nothing he could do.

Because the rumors had hit his soft spots, starting with his childlessness.

He and Yoshiko have been married for so many years, yet they haven't had any children. Not only are the nobles and politicians complaining, but even the common people are secretly gossiping about it. Is it because our emperor is incompetent?

Well, Hirohito admitted that his specifications and time were indeed a bit short. Although he had secretly tried with other women and they did not get pregnant, he was definitely able to have children! At this time, the words and memorials from the court officials who advised him to take a concubine once again surfaced in Hirohito's mind, and then were quickly thrown away.

No, no, the harem cannot be in turmoil, otherwise someone will seize the opportunity.

Secondly, there is the matter of the big earthquake.

According to Japanese mythology, whenever Amaterasu Omikami becomes displeased with her royal children and grandchildren, she commands a giant abalone beneath the earth to flip over, causing an earthquake. While this is undoubtedly nonsense according to modern science, the vast majority of Japanese people still believe it.

The most crucial point is that if you deny this, you are denying the existence of Amaterasu and the legitimacy of the Emperor!

Therefore, every time an earthquake occurred, the emperor had to issue an edict to blame himself or find a scapegoat or divert the people's attention to other things;

For example, the 1923 Tokyo earthquake not only caused nearly 15 deaths and massive economic losses, but also nearly cost Hirohito his throne if it hadn't been handled properly and with a well-placed blame game. (Note: In 1921, Emperor Taisho went completely insane, riding his horse through the Imperial Palace and commanding a military band with a whip, turning several musicians who disapproved of him into zebras.)

(On November 25, 1921, the Imperial Family Council and the Privy Council held a secret meeting and decided that Hirohito would take over as regent in advance. Therefore, when the earthquake occurred two years later, both the nobility and the people believed that Hirohito was to blame.) (But who was it that Emperor Taisho was still nominally on the throne at the time?)

The third issue is the disability of Hirohito himself, his father Emperor Taisho and his grandfather Emperor Meiji. Emperor Meiji had a leg disability;

Emperor Taisho was mentally disabled;

Hirohito suffered from scoliosis, hand disability and was born with severe myopia.

In later times, even a middle school student could easily answer the reason - inbreeding;

However, even though scientists had already proposed this, few people believed it, let alone the imperial family who firmly believed in "maintaining the purity of bloodline." Therefore, the fact that three consecutive emperors had disabilities was indeed a major concern for the imperial family.

Many people secretly discussed that the emperor must have done something to anger the gods.

In comparison, economic problems and interference in government were minor issues. In short, from the moment he ascended the throne, Hirohito's throne was in a precarious position.

If it weren't for his exceptional skills in palace fighting, he would have "died of illness" or "been banned from leaving the palace" long ago! Which bastard brought this up again?

What's the purpose!

Just as the Emperor was sorting through the "suspicious list," Empress Nagako, who had also heard the news, rushed over. Upon seeing him, she wept and bowed down, saying, "Your Majesty! Please punish me! It's all my fault that you have been subjected to such vicious attacks!"

Hirohito sighed. Although he was very dissatisfied with this woman who could not have children, she was his empress after all.

Even if he didn't love her at all, based on the events of the palace seizure and the wedding, he couldn't possibly depose her, as this would affect his own legitimacy. "Get up! This isn't your fault."

“…”

Empress Liangzi got up with tears in her eyes, and the couple sat facing each other in silence. After a while, she said cautiously:

"How about, Your Majesty, we use something to help with conception tonight?" "To help with conception?"

"I heard..."

So, that night, after taking some aphrodisiac drugs, the mighty Emperor once again tortured Empress Nagako until midnight;

However, when he finally finished his last ejaculation, exhausted, he suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, a bulge in his throat, and blood spurted out! "Your Majesty? Your Majesty!? Your Majesty!!!"

"Imperial Physician! Imperial Physician!"

146 The Emperor's heir is extinct, the sacred artifacts are left without a master, and the throne is vacant.

Two days later, Fujiwara no Kanezane learned from his father Fujiwara no Shinichi that Hirohito had vomited blood in the palace. He was shocked and confused.

Alas?

Although he was a disabled person, Hirohito's health didn't seem that bad, right?

That's not right. Didn't that old guy live to be nearly 90 years old?

Fujiwara no Kanezane had no idea how much of an impact the few "little things" he did after coming to this world actually had.

Putting aside other things, after he seduced a certain emperor in Northeast China into signing a treaty that sold out the entire Northeast, Hirohito, in his joy, had Empress Nagako drunk for several days. For a middle-aged man in his early thirties, who was not particularly healthy to begin with, this was no small burden.

He was even less aware that, because he had "teased his father," the aphrodisiacs and food Hirohito consumed that day had been spiked with some unspeakable "good stuff." Each one of them was harmless and non-toxic, with no chance of anyone finding anything unusual. Combined, they wouldn't cause any problems.

But what if the person taking it is too weak to be nourished?

That is a poison to the tonic.

Some of Japan's long-established aristocratic families have a deep understanding of Chinese medicine. In short, Hirohito's collapse after vomiting blood caused the completely unaware Fujiwara no Kanezane to panic. Call for help, call for help, please don't collapse now!

If you fall, who can I ask to go to the "226"? I can't just mess with myself, right?

Give me a few years before dying!

Otherwise, my fun will be over!
