Chapter 418: Most of the Righteous Are Butchers [Request for Full Order]
Kobayashi Ichiro smiled bitterly and said, "I have analyzed it and I think the main reason why we have become what we are now is that we have no independence!"
“We appear to be an independent state, but in reality we are an eagle colony.”
“We have no autonomy over what industries we want to develop or what technologies we want to research!”
"That's why the eagle can easily restrict and castrate us."
"Under this situation, we are doomed to have no future, aren't we?"
Matsumoto Tomoko suddenly said: "Now that you put it that way, I understand."
"So, the main reason we are in this situation is because of the Giant Eagle?!"
Kobayashi Ichiro nodded: "That's right! The giant eagle is the culprit!"
"If we don't take immediate action to resist the Giant Eagle, then we will most likely be completely destroyed! We will become a complete agricultural country!"
"By that time, our entire foot basin will become poor and backward. We will not have enough food to eat or warm clothes to wear. We will become orphans of the modern world and be forgotten by the whole world!"
Tomoko Matsumoto widened her eyes, she was a little bit unconvinced.
"No way? Although life is difficult now, we shouldn't end up in such a situation, right?"
Kobayashi Ichiro sighed and said, "Don't you believe it?"
Matsumoto Tomoko said: "It's not that I don't believe it, it's a bit bizarre. Although our industrial technology has lagged behind, at least we are still a major industrial power."
Kobayashi Ichiro said: "The Giant Eagle is forcibly relocating all of our high-quality industries. Some factories have already dismantled all their machines and shipped them away!"
"Our key engineers and technical elites also left with the ship!"
“Giant Eagle is forcefully enforcing this policy.”
"I have a feeling that the Giant Eagle will most likely withdraw from Yatai in half a year!"
"They will definitely destroy all our industrial capabilities before they leave!"
Matsumoto Tomoko widened her eyes and said, "How scary!"
"But why would they want to destroy us?"
"We have always been their partners, right?"
"Of course, partner is the written word, but in reality we are minions. Why would they kill the minions?"
"Don't they need our help in dealing with dragons and bears?"
Kobayashi Ichiro smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The eagles are no longer very good. They can only retreat!"
"They want to destroy us before they retreat, lest we fall into the hands of dragons or eagles."
Matsumoto Tomoko opened her eyes wide: "I see..."
"It's incredible."
"Mr. Kobayashi, why do you want to tell me this?"
"I'm just a hopeless girl living on the streets."
Ichiro Kobayashi said: "I think we need to unite all patriotic people!"
"We have to do something, fast!"
Matsumoto Tomoko shook her head gently: "I don't like foot basins!"
"Because it never gave me any love."
"My world is always cold and hopeless."
Ichiro Kobayashi was not surprised by what Tomoko Matsumoto said.
He said: "But if the basin becomes even more dilapidated and poor, the elites can run away, but where can we, the lower-class people, run to?"
"This is our homeland, this is the foundation of our survival!"
"The poorer we are and the less choices we have, the more we must love foot basins."
"Ms. Matsumoto, do you want to turn the basin into a country without chaebols, where everyone is equal and everyone has a job, and various welfare benefits can guarantee basic living conditions?"
Tomoko Matsumoto asked: "Is there such a place in the world?"
Kobayashi Ichiro nodded: "Yes! Both dragons and bears!"
Matsumoto Tomoko's eyes widened again: "Ah? I heard that these two are the most evil, and they always want to get rid of the foot basin. Why do you say that, Mr. Kobayashi?"
Kobayashi Ichiro said: "Will the authorities in the foot basin tell you the truth?"
"They have been confusing right and wrong all along."
"If we want the lower classes to have a truly good life, we must overthrow the current imperial power!"
"Well! Build a real people-led state!"
"Ms. Matsumoto, do you want to be a hero of the foot basin?"
"Do you want to fight for a harmonious society?"
"Do you want to be a great figure recorded in history?"
Ichiro Kobayashi tried his best to give Tomoko Matsumoto a shot of chicken blood.
Matsumoto Tomoko smiled and shook her head, saying, "Why should I be a big shot?"
"I am just a bunch of weeds on the roadside. No one has ever cared about me, and I won't care about anyone."
"I don't care what will happen in the future, I just need to live the fucking present."
"Okay, I'm leaving!"
After saying this, Tomoko Matsumoto stood up and left.
Ichiro Kobayashi was a little stunned.
He originally thought that he could convince Matsumoto Tomoko with just a few words and persuade her to set a great goal.
But now it seems that is not the case.
This little girl has no lofty ideals at all, and she has no intention of fighting for the happiness of others.
In fact, this is quite consistent with the current condition of the foot basin.
In capitalist society, people are cold and indifferent.
Everyone lives for themselves, without any consideration for others.
Such dedication and selfless great personality do not exist.
Ichiro Kobayashi shrugged, thinking that he might be overthinking it.
What could a teenage girl understand?
She just thinks about how to steal some money so that she can eat and wear nice clothes. I guess that's all her ambition.
It was ridiculous that I still wanted to subdue him. After Kobayashi Ichiro finished his meal, he got up and left the restaurant.
After Kobayashi Ichiro had his fill, he became more concerned about his country and his people.
As he walked, he was thinking about what to do next.
He thought, he should first quickly establish an organization?
However, he currently cannot raise the funds needed for this organization.
It is not easy to establish a resistance army.
He walked and thought all the way, and his head hurt a little.
He found that there was too much work to be done.
Too much money and materials are needed.
He needs a group of like-minded people to join him.
A base needs to be established for training.
This base definitely cannot be located in Dongjing City, it needs to be located in a remote countryside.
There are quite a lot of mountains in Jiaoben, but not many plains.
Only the Dongjing area is suitable for building a megacity.
The largest urban cluster in Jiaoben has been built here.
This urban cluster accounts for more than half of the population in Taiwan and most of its GDP.
It can be said that the Dongjing urban cluster is the essence of the city, and the rest are just useless.
Ichiro Kobayashi does have a farm in the countryside, which has about twenty acres of land.
Those lands are now rented out to farmers for cultivation.
He thought, maybe I should take back the land and build a private shooting range? Then organize a group of people to undergo armed training, and then join the struggle.
However, he did not have the confidence to quickly organize a group of people who were willing to sacrifice their lives for justice.
Ichiro Kobayashi walked to the office building where his office was located.
He walked in.
There is a property staff working at the service desk on the first floor.
"Mr. Kobayashi, good afternoon!" Seeing Kobayashi Ichiro, the man greeted Kobayashi.
Xiao Lin nodded with a smile and asked, "Have you eaten?" The other party hesitated for a moment, smiled bitterly and shook his head, "No, I'll eat the lunch box I brought later."
Kobayashi saw that the other person looked pale and could tell at a glance that he was a little malnourished.
"Is the water here?" Xiao Lin asked.
The other party said: "Water is not expected to be available until tomorrow."
Xiao Lin said depressedly: "How do we go to the toilet? How do we solve the problem of drinking water?"
“Are you sure you can get water tomorrow?”
“If we can’t even get running water, then how can we work here?”
The other party just bowed and said "sorry".
Kobayashi Ichiro sighed, he couldn't bear to blame the other party.
Because this man is just a small worker.
There was no point in making things difficult for him.
A person who can't even get enough food to eat will not have enthusiasm for work.
Unfortunately, in Jiaoben, more and more people are unable to get enough food.
Ichiro Kobayashi turned around and took the elevator upstairs.
The elevator door opened, and he was about to step in when someone pulled his collar from behind.
Ichiro Kobayashi was surprised and turned around, and he found that it was Tomoko Matsumoto.
"Why are you here?" Kobayashi Ichiro said with a smile.
Matsumoto Tomoko said: "I just want to see who you really are."
Kobayashi Ichiro said, "Didn't I tell you? I am Kobayashi Ichiro, the editor-in-chief of the Red Newspaper."
Matsumoto Tomoko said: "There are so many people who have lied to me. How can I believe them so easily?"
"So, I want to follow you and take a look."
Kobayashi Ichiro shook his head and said, "Would you like to come upstairs with me? Come with me to the office and take a look."
Matsumoto Tomoko said: "Why not?"
"Of course I dare."
"I just want to prove that you are the real Kobayashi Ichiro."
Ichiro Kobayashi walked into the elevator.
Tomoko Matsumoto followed in.
Soon, they arrived at the floor where Ichiro Kobayashi's office was located.
"Why is it so dark? Besides, isn't this too deserted?"
"It's unbelievably quiet."
Tomoko Matsumoto said.
“A lot of companies have closed down,” Kobayashi said. “There are only a few companies left on our floor.”
Matsumoto Tomoko sighed: "The situation seems really serious."
Kobayashi Ichiro nodded: "Yes!"
"So, if we allow the giant eagle to slaughter us, the future of the foot basin will be worrying."
As they were talking, they arrived at Ichiro Kobayashi's office.
There is a plaque of the Red Newspaper Editorial Office outside.
Ichiro Kobayashi took out the key and opened the office.
When he left, he turned off the lights in the office.
The main thing is, every bit of savings counts.
Ichiro Kobayashi turned on the light.
Matsumoto Tomoko looked around the small office, shook his head and said, "Is your editorial office so small?"
Kobayashi Ichiro shrugged and said, "Small?"
"I think it's OK. We are just a small media."
"Ms. Matsumoto, now you believe that I am Ichiro Kobayashi, the editor-in-chief of the Red Newspaper, right?"
Matsumoto Tomoko said: "I feel like you are quite poor."
"If you want to recruit some people to do something big, you'll need some funding, right?"
"Even if people don't take money, you still have to make sure they have food to eat and clothes to wear, right?"
Kobayashi Ichiro said: "I will try my best to raise funds."
"I believe I can find a rich man who cares about the future of the foot basin."
Tomoko Matsumoto said: "Rich people are quite conscienceless. I don't think you can necessarily find a sponsor."
"Can you tell me all your thoughts?"
"Let me see if it's reliable."
"If it's reliable, I can sponsor you."
"I have a gang of daughters under me, probably more than a hundred people in total."
"We can generate at least 70 to 80 million yuan in revenue every month."
Kobayashi Ichiro was pleasantly surprised: "Ah?! Miss Matsumoto is so righteous."
"I didn't expect that you would be willing to participate in such a great cause."
Matsumoto Tomoko waved her hands and said, "Don't flatter me first. I just want to know, what can we do to save the foot basin?!"
Kobayashi Ichiro said: "In the current situation, the most effective way is definitely armed struggle!"
"As long as we can organize a force that is not afraid of death and can carry out KB assassination and sabotage."
"And then every day we continue to sabotage, assassinate, and attack the Giant Eagle."
"After they are hurt, they will restrain their actions."
"They will have to consider leaving the basin immediately because the cost is too high."
“History has proven that.”
Matsumoto Tomoko nodded and said, "What you said makes sense."
"However, those violent methods you just mentioned also require comprehensive and in-depth practical training to master, right?"
This little girl is obviously not completely ignorant.
However, considering that she was able to hang around on the streets for several years and then become a female boss on the streets, her brain must be extremely sharp.
Not only is she smart, she is also very decisive and fierce.
Otherwise, how could there be so many girls older than her willing to submit to him?
"I personally was once a member of the Red Army," said Ichiro Kobayashi.
“I have received systematic training.”
"I can operate a wide variety of weapons."
“So, I can do the training myself.”
The Red Army was a very powerful left-wing faction in the 1950s and 1960s.
Many celebrities have come from this organization.
They were once very famous for their assassination and sabotage activities all over the world.
However, by the mid-to-late 60s, the organization began to decline.
Matsumoto Tomoko's eyes lit up: "Oh! I didn't expect that you were once a member of the Red Army. I am so disrespectful."
"Can't you find all the members of your organization back then?"
Kobayashi Ichiro shook his head and said, "Some died, some were caught, and even those who were still alive have all gone quiet."
"We no longer have the passion and courage we once had."
Tomoko Matsumoto said: "You can train my team members first if you have time."
"I think they might be more suitable for sabotage and assassination."
Kobayashi Ichiro nodded and said, "That's no problem."
"I can spare some time to train them. First of all, we need to let the girls establish a belief in saving the country."
"But I think it's more important for girls to be able to operate various weapons," Matsumoto said.
"I'm afraid this will require a base. Mr. Kobayashi, you should do all this."
Kobayashi Ichiro nodded and said, "Leave it to me. I have a farm in the countryside, and I plan to turn it into a base soon."
As Kobayashi Ichiro said this, he opened his Weibo backend. He wanted to see what his current data was like.
However, at this time, he saw a private message from the station: Mr. Xiaolin, may I ask, have you ever been a member of the Red Army? (End of this chapter)
