April 9, Yoyogi Shrine.
The news from Yagyu Yuki about the marriage between Tokugawa Kiki and Takagi Saya made Tokugawa Shigemo's expression change.
In terms of force, the Takagi family is not good, but in terms of financial resources, the Ukoku Isshinkai guild controlled by the Takagi family can be said to be the second largest chaebol in Sakura Country.
The largest chaebol in Sakura Country are Yamazaki, Shandai and the Gourmet Hills Guild, but they have not expanded significantly.
It is normal for the Takagi family to invest in Tokugawa Kiki, but marriage is not a simple investment.
Tokugawa Shigemo even had some regrets. If he could pull himself down to contact the Takagi family, if he could marry with the Takagi family, then the overall situation would be in sight.
However, who would have thought that a tough guy like Soichiro Takagi would betray his daughter?
I always thought that Takagi Soichiro would kill anyone who dared to say such a thing.
What a mistake.
"Brother, you don't have to worry," Tokugawa Sumiya said, "If necessary, we can get married, Mr. Yamazaki and I."
"ah?"
"Why are you so surprised? I am a woman and I want to get married."
"No, you are going to be your Majesty."
Tokugawa Chengye said casually: "Why don't you just go? Let's swap positions, and then you marry Miss Meidaizi. Your position will be absolutely stable."
"Are you kidding me? How is this possible?"
"How do you know if you haven't tried it?"
"There's no need to try it."
"Forget it, isn't it Saya Takagi?"
"this……"
"Don't worry, I'll contact you."
"No, even if this matter is implemented..."
"Please, brother, what age are we in now? Do we still have to go through laborious procedures for a blind date?"
Tokugawa Sumiya went to the Disneyland website to find Katsuragi Ai, the ship girl, and asked her to help contact Yamazaki.
Looking at Yamazaki's ordinary face in the video, Tokugawa Chengye hesitated a little. It was too unattractive.
However, when it comes to marriage, you don’t have to worry about beauty or ugliness.
Tokugawa Chengye worked hard and proposed marriage to Yamazaki.
Yamazaki was stunned when he heard this, thinking that the person opposite had just had his head caught in the door.
"Okay, just say, don't take it from your mother-in-law or mother-in-law, you are still not a man!"
Yamazaki was crumbling, and Tokugawa Shigemo fell directly. Is this really his sister?
"There is no need to consider marriage," Yamazaki said, "but I will take this opportunity to explain to you."
"What?"
"I will not restore the order of Sakura Country to its previous state, so don't waste your time on this."
"It's a joke, it's not your decision."
"It is true that I am not the only one who has the final say, but I believe no one wants their offspring to be inferior to others as soon as they are born."
"Well……"
Yamazaki said: "As children of aristocratic families, you cannot feel the problems of common children, especially poor children."
"To be honest, Sakura Country's welfare on related issues is not bad, it can even be said to be quite good, but it is still far from enough."
"Why? This is why the bureaucratic family is in power. This causes resources to be tilted towards you, and the resources are given priority to where they need them."
"No matter what kind of economic plan, we cannot get rid of the fact that the ultimate beneficiaries are related enterprises, and the interests of the people are for sale."
"At the same time, the huge bureaucracy and intricate family relationships have made the upper levels bloated, wasting many resources, and raising all kinds of rice bugs."
“This system cannot be changed at all, because it is the bureaucratic family that created it and they maintain it.
"If you want to change it, you can only completely overthrow the entire bureaucratic family class and rebuild order."
"Since ancient times in the Sakura Kingdom, has there been anyone who thinks like this? I don't know if Oda Nobunaga is one of them. It's hard to say. Maybe it's because he wasn't that he was strangled by a conspiracy."
"As for the Tokugawa family, you chose a bureaucratic family. During the shogunate era, it can be said that the bureaucratic family class developed to the extreme and reached destruction."
"But in the rebirth of the order, the last ones in power are still the bureaucratic families, and those lofty ideals finally compromised with the bureaucratic families and married into the bureaucratic families.
"Those who don't compromise will either end up in idle positions with no ambitions, or simply be killed."
"Even in modern times, it's just a different set of faces. Look at their origins and genealogy to see who is behind them and which family they are from."
"It has been more than two thousand years, and those families are still ruling the Sakura Kingdom."
"I actually don't have any big ambitions, I'm afraid of things, and I don't want to take on any important responsibilities."
"But now that I have the opportunity and I have the ability, I will definitely break the bureaucratic family system and make the era of first-class bureaucratic families a thing of the past."
"You can stop me, but please don't let me join you. We are taking different paths and it is impossible to come together."
"I also advise you, stop thinking about the past, live in the present, and serve the people of today."
"Ahem," Tokugawa Sumiya said, "What you said is very beautiful. Really, I was almost fascinated."
"However, that is impossible. Even if the bureaucracy does not exist, the aristocratic family will still exist, and the continuation of wealth will still create children who are superior to others from birth."
“In modern society, bureaucratic families are not the root cause. The root cause is the uneven distribution of wealth.”
Yamazaki shook his head, "I think the reason for the uneven distribution of wealth is that bureaucratic families are in power and tilt resources towards them.
"For example, how come your Tokugawa artists are so famous? Do you really think they are good enough? No, they are just a bunch of people praising them."
"To give another foreign example, why did that poor man Van Gogh become famous after his death?"
"It's not because his paintings are so good, it's because the people who get his paintings can work hard and eventually turn Van Gogh's paintings into masterpieces."
"Of course, if you insist on saying how good he is and how everyone judges him, I can't find a reason to refute it."
"I just want to say that if a Van Gogh painting were in Van Gogh's hands, it would just be a painting."
"I have nothing to argue with this matter. It is indeed difficult to explain clearly." Tokugawa Sumiya said, "But according to the order you mentioned, who will be the leader? There must be a leader, right?"
"For some things, such as trade, we need oil, so we have to negotiate, then buy, and open a currency clearing agency between the two countries."
Yamazaki shook his head, "The monetary system has collapsed, and the trading system is also incomplete."
"Bulk transactions are now barter. Oil in the Middle East is now mostly exchanged for daily necessities, clothes, shoes and socks, toothpaste and soap, grains and vegetables, etc."
Tokugawa Sumiya said: "That is also an exchange. Someone needs to negotiate. If we keep it closed, the black ships will be waiting."
Yamazaki said: "No, trading is the behavior of the merchants themselves. When people have needs, businessmen with a keen sense of smell will take action spontaneously."
Tokugawa Sumiya asked: "So, what about dumping, what about monopoly?"
