1pm, at the support office.
Ding-a-ling!
Ding-a-ling!
Inside the office, the landline phones were in chaos, with countless calls pouring in. The operators were sweating profusely and were overwhelmed.
"Mr. Domon! You're finally back!"
The firm manager came forward hurriedly, holding a thick document in his hand:
"Here is the schedule Mr. Okiya has put together for you."
"Mr. Okiya?"
Domon Yasuki took the document, flipped through it, and said in astonishment:
"Has he come to work yet?"
"To be exact..."
The manager smiled and said:
"He came last night, and he sorted out the information for you as soon as he arrived. He worked all night to finish this document."
"So dedicated..."
Domon Yasuaki was a little shocked and asked:
"Where is he now?"
"I'm waiting for you in your office. I want to discuss something important with you."
"good."
Handing the document to the secretary, Yasuki Domon glanced at Makoto Sakaki and walked towards the office with him.
Although Domon Yasuteru's support agency is not as luxurious as Senzo Junji's, it at least has everything, although it looks a bit ordinary.
Sakaki Makoto followed Domon Yasuki into the office and saw Okiya Subaru sitting on the sofa with a cup of slightly cold black tea in his hand. It was obvious that he had been waiting for a long time.
"Mr. Okiya, welcome to join my team."
Domon Yasuki smiled and shook hands with him. After motioning for everyone to sit down, he got straight to the point and asked:
"What do you want from me?"
His eyes narrowed into a slit, Okiya Subaru pushed his eyes and said calmly:
"Did you go to Pingjing Village yesterday and uncover a case of smuggling live wild animals?"
“I did go to Pingjing Village, but I didn’t solve the wildlife smuggling case.”
Domon Yasuki looked at Sakaki Makoto:
"He led his team through numerous difficulties and dangers to catch the criminal, and I just sat in the house and drank a few cups of tea."
"It doesn't matter."
Okiya Subaru quickly shook his head, his narrowed eyes flashing with a sharp light:
"What's important is whether you were present or not. After all, Mr. Sakaki Makoto is your hired bodyguard, there is no doubt about that. So we can publicize that it was you who directed Mr. Sakaki Makoto to solve the case. This way, your image will be further shaped, and your support rate should rise by about 1%."
Without waiting for Domon Yasuki and Sakaki Makoto to speak, Okiya Subaru continued:
"The next part is the highlight. The reason why Senzu Junji's approval rating has soared is that he chose the retirement route that the people are worried about. In this case, why don't we do the opposite and let them support themselves?"
"Feed yourself?"
Domon Yasuki looked surprised:
"It is precisely because children are under great pressure from work that the problem of elderly care is difficult to solve. As for pensions, with the increasing number of elderly people, the government's financial situation is tight and it is unable to provide money. This is the fundamental reason!"
"Yes, but listen to me first..."
Subaru Okiya took out a file bag from his briefcase without a smile, opened it and poured out a bunch of information from it:
"This is the information I compiled this morning about the 128 impoverished villages, 27 extremely impoverished villages, and 33 towns that are receiving key government support. Please take a look."
Domon Yasuki took the document and gave half to Sakaki Makoto, and the two of them lowered their heads to read it.
While they were reading the materials, Subaru Okiya was still talking:
"Between 1992 and 1997, the U.S. GDP per capita grew from $25,400 to $31,500, and is still rising."
"In the past five years, Japan's per capita GDP has increased from 31,400 to 35,000, which is a very slow growth. If the situation continues, in less than three years, the per capita GDP of the United States will completely surpass that of Japan."
"The slow economic growth proves that the money earned by the Japanese has not changed much over the years. The economic flow has become closed, and there has been no breakthrough in various industries. The plate is so big that it cannot expand further. Although prices have not increased further, the age of the population is constantly increasing. The era of demographic dividend is about to pass. Someone must bear the consequences of the rapid economic growth in the past few years. This is also one of the reasons why it is difficult to provide for the elderly, young people choose to lie down, and internal circulation is serious."
Domon Yasuhira's eyebrows jumped, and he leaned forward slightly, listening very carefully.
"What's the problem?"
Okiya Subaru raised a finger:
"Competition between industries and the trade agreements signed in previous years have led to a reverse flow of wealth. The United States is taking off, and Japan, which has already taken off, is supplying nutrients to the other side. To put it bluntly, Japan is the party being violently plundered."
"So in order to solve this problem, what we need to do is to break the economic blockade formed by the United States, develop the secondary and tertiary economic industries, realize the drainage channel bend, and let the AE86 continue to go up the mountain."
"The story of Pingjing Village inspired me. In an era of rapid development, young people from the countryside flock to big cities. However, no matter how fast big cities develop, they cannot resist the tens of thousands of new people settling down every day. The cake will always be divided up. When the latecomers cannot taste the sweetness, they will try their best to plunder the cake of others, forming the so-called internal circulation."
"The eliminated are powerless and can only do some labor work. It is no problem to support themselves, but the economy is so large that it is unlikely to increase their wages. If they work hard but see no hope of rising, the final outcome is to lie low and muddle through. Anyway, they won't starve to death."
"In my opinion, the pension policy proposed by Sento Junji is no different from empty promises, but the people who see no hope are willing to believe him because they have no better choice, but..."
After a pause, Okiya Subaru smiled knowingly:
"He drifted through the corner, so can we."
“It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish…”
Domon Yasuki groaned and said:
"I see, you were planning on backstabbing Sento Junji."
"Yes, but politics is all about intrigue and deception. He backstabbed you yesterday, and we can backstab him today."
Okiya Subaru said calmly:
"Since he proposed to solve the problem of elderly care, why don't we improve the rural economy, support poor villages, speed up the development of secondary and tertiary industries, form a new economic model, and let many villages like Pingjing Village reproduce the glory of 20 years ago."
"But will this work?"
Frowning, Domon Yasuki was a little embarrassed:
“The government has been supporting poor villages, but there hasn’t been much benefit!”
"You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Life goes by day by day, and meals have to be eaten bite by bite. In the early stage, they just draw big cakes, and the people will support whoever draws the roundest cake. Instead of pinning their hopes on Sento Junji, it is better to take destiny into their own hands. What do you think, Mr. Domon?"
Okiya Subaru smiled and said:
"My job is to help you get elected as a member of parliament, and this is what I propose."
