Chapter 210: Core Group
The death of the Aso family is a big deal for the Aso family, but for the entire turbulent Japanese society, it is not even a wave. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The demonstrations organized by various civil society groups in the streets show no signs of stopping, and the best efforts of the cabinet at the economic level have not been able to prevent the scale of unemployment from widening, especially in Thailand, where there are nationwide floods – another Japanese parts production site has been hit hard.
The number of businesses that have closed down has reached a new high in a week after Thailand's devastating flooding, and the number of unemployed people has soared, and public discontent is boiling.
The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry has already issued a warning that the country's economic structure is in danger of collapsing, and by the way, an apology meeting has been held, and the minister of trade and industry has been replaced.
Although the stock market has not collapsed, it has already fallen below the warning line of 10,000 points even to a new low, and 7,000 points is not a dream! Many middle-class people have fallen into the extreme poverty class in just two weeks -- it is popular in Japan to buy stocks with the leverage of capital allocation, and many speculators have their assets wiped out in one day.
However, this is good news for Maruko, after receiving the capital injection from the Aso family, especially the support of talents, the Supreme Club is developing at a speed beyond anyone's imagination, absorbing the people at the bottom of society, especially those who are unemployed.
These unemployed people are at a low point in their lives, when they need to be recognized the most, and when they are most insecure, and the collective atmosphere of the Supreme Council makes these people feel not isolated and helpless, but feel safe in a strong collective.
Maruko takes Sakurako, Sawako and Tomoko and immerses themselves in this wonderful game, they appoint cadres, expand the number of the Supreme Society, appoint more cadres, and then expand the Supreme Society to a larger scale, although the foundation is a little unstable, but the power is gradually expanding.
In just two weeks, the Supreme Council has expanded its branches to 26 branches, and it is in full bloom in all areas of Tokyo!
Maruko even selected the most fanatical and most recognized members of the Supreme Society, and established the core group of the Supreme Society. She used the funds of the Aso family to give living allowances to these core members, so that they could devote more time to the activities organized by the Supreme Society, and use them to attract more believers and assimilate more core believers.
At the same time, she also used this group of core group members as thugs - she wanted to give the members of the Supreme Council a sense of collective superiority, and there was nothing more than violence to protect the shortcomings of this collective sense of collective security and superiority.
At present, the social order is unstable, the public order is chaotic, theft and robbery incidents are frequent, and the market is withering, some small gangsters cannot collect the protection money, and life is not easy, and they can't help but start squeezing oil from the residents in the territory!
Maruko is not a righteous person, she doesn't care about stealing and robbing, and she has no objection to the gangsters trying to make a living, but she declares that all members of the High Council are protected by the group, and anyone who dares to violate and harass will suffer the wrath of the whole High Council.
The core members of the Supreme Council strongly support her idea!
Maruko began to take the members of the core group to seek revenge everywhere, and the brawls continued, ranging from a group of hundreds of people to catching a thief, as long as the members of the Supreme Club suffered a loss, Maruko had to take care of it!
All of a sudden, she was busy.
…………
After Eiji Fukuyama lost his job, he borrowed some capital and planned to start a small business, but unfortunately, he failed in just half a month - he wanted to do some clothing business, set up a stall or something, but he couldn't sell it at all, and the goods were all smashed in his hands.
And the creditor also had a poor cash turnover, so he sold his IOU to the gangsters, and now the gangs are urging him to pay back the money every day, otherwise he will have to recalculate the interest according to the usury.
Eiji Fukuyama cowered at home, listening to the sound of slamming doors one after another, and hung his head in frustration. People at the bottom of society, like him, are the biggest victims of social unrest, and once they lose their jobs, they are almost desperate.
The door was smashed, and every time it sounded, Fukuyama Eiji's body also trembled, he didn't dare to face those gang members, because he couldn't afford to pay back, and he didn't even dare to look at his wife who was huddled in the corner of the house with her children, he felt sorry for them.
He was in despair.
The gang members outside the door are also impatient, they are not having a good time now, these IOUs collected cheaply need to be returned as much as possible, and if they can't do it, they will take things or people to pay off their debts.
It's just that there are still police and laws in charge, and they can't break into the door, so they just harass as much as possible and increase psychological pressure on creditors. The door lock was loosened by the continuous smashing of the door, but the gang members stopped, and then smashed the door in case the door was broken, the family could call the police, they didn't want to cause too much trouble, although the debt repayment was fair, the police came to persuade them, but they still tried to avoid dealing with the police.
They opened a small crack in the top of the door, cursed in a low voice, and threatened to pour gasoline at night if they didn't pay the money, and burned the whole family to death in the house!
Then the gang let them go for the time being and moved on to the next one - they were also very busy with business, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to eat.
The room finally fell silent, and Edori slowly moved to Fukuyama Eiji on her knees with her daughter Kasumi in her arms, and asked with tears in her eyes, "What should I do if the child is his father?"
Eiji Fukuyama dug his ten fingers deep into his hair, hugged his head and said silently, and after a long time, he said in tears, "I'm sorry for you!"
He really has no choice, he can't figure out where to live! Being frank and incompetent in front of his wife and daughter is probably the greatest sorrow for men.
He whimpered and apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, I made you suffer with me......"
Zhiori hugged her husband hard, and Xiao Xiangcheng also hugged her father, and comforted him together: "It's okay, let's think of a way ...... again"
Eiji Fukuyama said bitterly: "What can be done? It is useless to call the police, we do owe money! It's all this damn world, and there is no way to give people a way to live!"
Kori hesitated and said, "Can you ask for help from the clan? Doesn't it mean solidarity and mutual assistance? Maybe they can lend us a little money for the time being......
Eiji Fukuyama smiled bitterly: "That's just a slogan......" he said so, but he didn't stop his wife from taking out the phone and starting to dial the number, anyway, he didn't hold out hope.
However, her wife spoke into the phone and began to "hi, hi, hi". After a while, her wife put down the phone and said to him hesitantly, "The child is his father, the people of the sect said...... They'll be there right away and tell you to call the gangsters. ”
Eiji Fukuyama was stunned, and only after a while did he ask, "What can they do when they come?"
Koriori shook her head and said she didn't know. The two of them were wondering here, and the door was smashed again, but this time it was not to ask for debts, it was someone from the sect who came.
So fast?Fukuyama Eiji and Edori glanced at each other, and quickly opened the door, only to see that the half-open courtyard was full of people, and Maruko swaggered in.
Fukuyama Eiji and Koori had seen Maruko and knew that she was the leader of the Supreme Society, and when they saw her come in person, they were both moved and ashamed - they have been busy with small business recently, and basically have not participated in the activities of the sect, and it is not too much to say that they are semi-withdrawn from the group, but they didn't expect that for a small person like them, the leader of the sect came forward in person.
Eiji Fukuyama bowed with Edori and said with tears in his eyes: "I'm really sorry for the trouble I caused you! I asked you to run for our own business......" Kokosumi also bowed like his parents.
Maruko waved his hand and said: "No need to do this, we are a collective, one person's trouble is everyone's trouble......" She took the members of the core group to this neighborhood to prepare for errands, and just called her to inform her of the situation, she led a small team of people to turn around and come over first to take a look - each member is a vote, and they are all the steps of the Aihara family to ascend to the supreme position, and she attaches great importance to it!
After saying that, she looked inside the house and asked, "What about the gangsters who want debts?"
Eiji Fukuyama hurriedly took out the phone and said, "I'll inform them immediately, it won't be long!"
Maruko said yes, and then shouted outside the house, "Sit down and rest, and then leave after dealing with this side!"
Zhiori made tea for the balls, and Xiao Xiangcheng shrank in the corner of the room and looked at the balls for a while, couldn't help but lean over carefully, took out a piece of candy from his pocket and held it in front of the balls, and whispered, "Little sister, give it to you." ”
The child is very sensitive, she saw that the young lady came, and the parents had a smile on their faces, and they were very grateful, so they took out the baby and gave it to the balls to enjoy.
Maruko glanced at the piece of candy, only to see that the color on the candy paper was wiped out, and immediately scoffed - how can I eat this kind of candy!
She picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, almost vomiting, what kind of tea is this, why does it smell musty? She flattened her mouth, and saw Xiao Xiangcheng still holding the candy and standing there with an expectant face, so she took it and peeled off the candy paper and threw it into her mouth, and flattened her mouth again--bargain!
She was rolling around in her mouth with sugar in her mouth, and Xiao Xiangcheng watched her eat it, and swallowed her saliva with a "grunt". Maruko glanced at her curiously and asked, "That's all you have?"
Xiao Xiangcheng nodded, she has been reluctant to eat this piece of candy, and she has been in her pocket for a long time!
The balls were very satisfied, such a filial child, knowing that he respected his elders, and he also paid tribute to Lord Gui to eat this piece, which has a future! She spit out the sugar again and stuffed it into Xiao Xiangcheng's mouth.
Xiao Chengxiang's eyes narrowed into a slit in happiness, completely forgetting that this piece of candy was originally hers.
Soon the gangsters who wanted to pay for the debt came, they were busy for most of the day, and they didn't have to get any money back, and they were having a headache - who would borrow money if they had money, and naturally they had no money to borrow, and it was too difficult to ask for money!
At this time, someone took the initiative to say that they wanted to pay back the money, and they came all the way without stopping.
As soon as they entered the courtyard, they felt that something was not right, and there were more than twenty big men sitting there quietly, wearing uniform black uniforms, and there was a solemn aura in the silence.
It's not easy to mess with at first glance!
Suddenly, the lowest-level minions in these gangsters were dumbfounded, standing at the gate of the courtyard and not daring to enter for a while, but Maruko had already heard the movement, and walked out of the room directly and pointed: "Catch it!"
These people were pushed to the ground before they even dared to resist, and Maruko walked up to them and asked, "Which group?"
The leader's face was pressed to the ground, and he replied with difficulty, "The ...... of the Masakoto group We're just asking for debts and nothing else!"
He was arguing loudly but Maruko ignored it, she was very familiar with these gangster methods, if she didn't care, then Fukuyama Eiji couldn't stand the pressure and would change the IOU, using high interest to extend the repayment period, and in the end, the interest was more and more unpaid and it was very likely that he would catch his wife and daughter.
Therefore, she arrested people directly without asking, and when she heard that the other party was from the Zhengcheng group, she was even more happy: "Wow, that's good...... I was about to trouble you when I ran into a few of you!"
She took out a small notebook and flipped through it, and read: "I went to the restaurant of our Supreme Club members to eat without giving money, and I pretended to be dead and blackmailed, harassed our members more than ten times, injured five of our members, and defrauded our members of a total of ...... Now we have to add a debt to the debt!" she read a long list, closed the notebook and shouted, "You bastards have not been notified by us, and you are not allowed to be rude to the members of our Supreme Council!"
These gangsters were stupid when they heard this, and they couldn't tell the difference at all, and Maruko pointed angrily: "Call me, let this group of fools know that our supreme society is not easy to bully!"
In two and a half minutes, the gang members became a pile of dead dogs, and the IOUs on their bodies were also searched. Maruko rummaged through for a moment and found the one that Eiji Fukuyama threw to him, and the rest were torn to shreds.
She ordered someone to take these dead dogs, and then drove directly without saying hello, preparing to go straight to the nest of the Zhengcheng group.
Fukuyama Eiji took the IOU, took his wife and daughter to look at all this dumbfounded, and saw that Maruko didn't say half a word of nonsense, and was about to leave directly, he stretched out his hand and before he could scream, he saw Maruko pour back again, took out a stack of money from his pocket and stuffed it into Xiao Chengxiang and said, "Take it and buy candy to eat!"
Xiao Chengxiang happily took it and shouted happily: "Thank you, little sister!"
Maruko's little face was flat: "Call me Lord Gui!" After speaking, she also laughed.
Eiji Fukuyama bowed beside him and thanked him: "I really don't know what to say, thank you so much, Katsura-sama!"
Maruko disagreed, in her opinion, this is a small thing that can't be smaller, it's really just a matter of doing it by the way, otherwise she won't go out of this kind of big thing - the Zhengcheng group has gone too far recently, hurting several members of the Supreme Society in a row, and Maruko organized people to go to the crusade!
She said casually: "The Imperial God Venerable instructed us to unite and help each other, this is as it should be, you don't have to be so polite, you have to be grateful and grateful to Lord the Royal God...... What's more, we are a group, so we have the responsibility to resist foreign enemies together!"
Eiji Fukuyama sincerely agreed, "You're so right!"
Maruko waved his hand and said, "Okay, you go back, we still have to clean up the scum of the Zhengcheng group!"
Eiji Fukuyama looked at the core members who were wearing the uniform of the Supreme Society and walked together with high morale and neatness, and couldn't help but ask, "The Masakomi-gumi is a big gang in several nearby towns...... I'm sorry, Lord Gui, isn't it too presumptuous to go with such a small number of people?"
Maruko glanced at Eiji Fukuyama and sneered, in her opinion, the Masakoto group is not much bigger than mung beans, probably equivalent to a toe of the Aso family, that is, a village overlord level, and she didn't bring this person, but there is no need to explain these to Fukuyama Eiji......
She asked disdainfully, "Are you scared?" and then watch your companions being bullied as shrunken turtles?" She turned her head again and asked the core members loudly: "Are you afraid?!"
During this period of time, these core members followed Maruko and others to fight east and west, going around to avenge members or uphold justice, and win victory after victory, it was when the cohesion was unprecedentedly strong, how could they be afraid?
There was a burst of laughter, and the deaf people could hear the disdain for the Masakokomi, and a few people glanced at Eiji Fukuda with the eyes of a soft egg.
Maruko got a satisfactory answer, and began to drive Fukuyama Eiji away again: "You go back, don't worry about the Masei group coming to make trouble again, they will be expelled from this territory!
Eiji Fukuyama stopped and watched Maruko slowly lead the team farther and farther, and then he turned around and ran home.
When I got home, I looked at my wife who was counting the money and didn't ask a word, I opened the closet and turned out the uniform of the Supreme Society, and quickly put it on my body!
Koori embarrassedly put away the money and asked in surprise, "Dad, what are you going to do?"
Eiji Fukuyama carefully pinned the badge of the Supreme Society on his chest, and said vigorously: "I will help, others have helped us, and we will have to reciprocate!"
After saying that, he felt out his hand and rushed out of the door, chasing after the ball.
