No funds.

Nagano Nao couldn't help but laugh.

Using such a lame excuse only shows that the fighting between the various factions has reached a fever pitch and they are too lazy to even cover it up.

Sumitomo is obviously behind this matter.

For a long time, because of the import of resources from Africa, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has handled the public opposition to the issue of black people staying in Africa in a low-key manner.

Even though there had been several major incidents before, they were suppressed in the end.

Of course, in addition to Sumitomo’s interests in this regard, the cabinet was able to maintain consistency on the issue of illegal stay of blacks because it had the same needs.

Because there is no Shinkansen in Ibaraki Prefecture, and considering commuting issues, Kurihara Kazuko consulted Naoo Nagano and finally took the program crew on the Shinkansen's non-reserved seats.

There were a few followers traveling with him.

There were two men and one woman, all of whom were young people. When they saw Nagano Nao, the two men's faces obviously turned ugly and they looked a little disappointed.

"This is Mr. Naoyo Nagano, the director of the Osaka headquarters of Daiichi Honsho. Because it is inconvenient to get to Ushiku City, we asked him to help!"

Kazuko Kurihara introduced Nagano Naoio, and although it was a respectful title, it seemed very intimate.

I thought that on this business trip with two men and two women, I would have the opportunity to pursue the girl I liked, but I didn't expect that Miss Kurihara already had a boyfriend.

The girl was very polite. When she heard that Nagano Nao was the head of the Japanese life insurance company, she immediately bowed.

The two men were not stupid. Having worked in Osaka, they knew how terrifying institutions like Japanese life insurance were. After a moment's hesitation, they quickly put aside their homophobia and bowed to greet them.

Nagano Nao was not arrogant and said casually, "I hope I won't cause you too much trouble by coming here this time. If I am rude, please forgive me."

"How could that be! There is no Shinkansen from Tokyo to Ibaraki Prefecture. We will have to ask Nagano-kun to arrange transportation. Speaking of which, we have to thank you very much!"

"Haha, it's just a piece of cake!"

“.”

Ibaraki Prefecture is a prefecture in the central part of Honshu Island, Japan, and is also part of the Tokyo metropolitan area, one of Japan's three major metropolitan areas.

Because it is located in the northeast of the Kanto Plain, the north is mountainous, the middle to the south is the Kanto Plain, and it is close to the Pacific Ocean, so the main industries are agriculture and fisheries.

The group took the Shinkansen and arrived in Tokyo.

Nao Nagano had already contacted Miyashita and arranged for two cars to come over.

Completely different from the car used by Nagano Nao in the company, the brand new Mercedes-Benz was very impressive, and the two young men traveling with him were so excited that their faces turned red.

"It's not a good idea to let us drive such an expensive car!"

"It's okay! We have insurance anyway, so there's no need to worry!"

"this"

"Xiao Ye, you are not afraid to drive because you are worried about your driving skills!"

"How is that possible!"

“.”

that's all.

The two cars set off towards the city hall in Ibaraki Prefecture.

After a forty-minute drive, you can gradually see large tracts of farmland and a large rural pastoral scenery.

Because it was deep winter, the fields were bare with few crops, but the surrounding vegetation was still lush and green, covering the neat, white single-family buildings.

There is probably not much farm work at this time. You can see many villagers playing chess outside, while others are tidying up their lawns and gardens. They seem to be living a very comfortable life.

The shelter was built on a wasteland not far from a village here.

After asking the villagers for the location, the group thanked them and drove over.

A beautiful group of white buildings is right in front of us. From the outside, it looks a bit like a holiday villa.

There were several cars parked outside.

A middle-aged woman with a very sharp temperament is teaching a man a lesson as if she were teaching her grandson.

The man was timid and could only shrug, while the woman was very dissatisfied and scolded: "Don't want to eat? What does it matter if you don't eat? It's not like we didn't provide food!"

"Ha Yi!"

"Do you still need me to teach you how to do this kind of thing?"

"Ha Yi!"

“.”

Such a scene made Nagano Nao stunned.

It is extremely rare for a man wearing a shelter uniform to be scolded like this by a woman in this country where male chauvinism is rampant.

Just at this moment.

Perhaps sensing a car approaching from behind, the woman turned her head, revealing a naturally serious face.

A serious poker face, wearing an orthodox and conservative suit, with an inexplicably serious temperament, who else could it be but Makiko Tanaka, who has inherited a lot from Kakuei Tanaka!

See her.

Naoto Nagano felt both surprised and reasonable.

So-called politics is nothing more than an art of compromise and attack, while morality and trends are a way of playing cards.

Makiko Tanaka has two cards in her hands when it comes to joining the cabinet.

One card is the Heisei New Women's Club.

Naoyo Nagano agreed to let Kazuko Kurihara perform for the sake of Makiko Tanaka and Sakurako Ikeda.

Although, it also has the purpose of cultivating political bargaining chips and social status for oneself.

The Heisei Movement is a good tool to use at any time, whether it is to divert attention when you become bigger in the future, or to use it to fight for the opportunity, it is a good bargaining chip and tool.

Another card in Tanaka's hand is to make a fuss about diplomatic and immigration management issues that are completely contrary to the current cabinet's policies.

Because of the relationship between Mitsui and Sumitomo, the cabinet has always been trying to smooth over the issue of illegally staying black people, as if it could not see the public's dissatisfaction with the matter.

Especially since the rise of the Seibu Group, the per capita wealth gap has become huge, and various problems have emerged, so it has become necessary to divert conflicts.

Nakasone era.

Just say directly that Americans are an inferior nation and the Yamato people are the most superior nation.

So Makiko Tanaka and Sakurako Ikeda used this populist spirit to turn the tables on the Liberal Democratic Party.

Didn’t you say that the Yamato people are the most outstanding nation?

If that is the case, why do you sit idly by while the noble blood of the Yamato people is potentially polluted?

Didn't you say that Japan is the number one economic power? Then why are the interests and personal safety of the people not protected when they are violated by inferior black people?

So things have become interesting now. Using one's own spear to attack one's own shield, the momentum created by the Liberal Democratic Party has in turn become a strong motto for Tanaka to rise to power.

He exchanged glances with Tanaka Makiko.

Nagano Nao got out of the car, took a few steps forward, kept a very delicate distance, and bowed.

"Hello, Ms. Tanaka. I didn't expect to meet you here."

"It's Nagano-kun! What a coincidence to meet you here."

"Ms. Tanaka, do you know me?"

"How could I not know the man who could keep Sakurako scheming? It's just that it seems that you, Nagano-kun, are more energetic than in the photo."

“.”

Each is aware of the other's existence.

This kind of greeting is polite yet not too distant.

Just looking at that face that seemed to be unable to smile but was forcing a smile, Nagano Nao couldn't help but feel many emotions in his heart.

If we were to comment on which woman is the most famous in Japan after the war, the results would be very limited.

Yasuko Sawaguchi, Noriko Sakai, these female stars can barely be considered, but if we really want to talk about the strongest woman, it must be Makiko Tanaka in front of us.

As a woman, she forced countless men to submit to her, and even openly scolded the Prime Minister, step by step, and stepped onto the position of prime minister. Perhaps she is the only one in Japan's history.

The two chatted casually, secretly sizing each other up.

Just looking at that ordinary, even poker-like and old-fashioned face, Nagano Nao felt a strong curiosity in his heart.

In Japan's society where men are superior to women, how did this woman step up to the position of prime minister?

Tanaka Makiko was also very curious. She knew Ikeda Sakurako's character. She was ambitious and regarded life as a game. She looked at the world as if it were a slaughter of dogs.

Although her fate is destined to be short and she needs to find someone to entrust her love to, the person she likes must have some extraordinary strengths.

If we just talk about his current status and the means he used to scheme against Sumitomo, he is indeed a very capable dragon, but Ikeda doesn't care about these things, so what could be the reason?

"President, why are you here too?" Kurihara Kazuko greeted him excitedly, even more enthusiastically than when she first found out about Naoto Nagano's identity.

Tanaka Makiko angrily cursed, "It's all because of these idiots, saying that the people over there are garbage and they won't eat, so they're on hunger strike in protest."

"You don't know how to handle such a simple matter. You must be afraid of taking responsibility!"

"Maybe it's because of the pressure from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs."

"That garbage must be scary. These guys are such cowards."

"It's not to scare anyone, because a guy really died of starvation yesterday, so I came to check on the situation. But it's not a big deal."
