Chapter 535: Crab Boat
After leaving the company, Kaho Minamino took out her mobile phone from her handbag and called her brother. When she learned that Shuichi Minamino was reading a book at home, she didn't need to take a taxi, but walked back directly. On the way, instead of speeding up his pace, he walked a little slower than usual, after all, he was thinking about how to persuade his younger brother.
Standing outside her door, Kaho Minamino, took out the key from her phone bag and pretended to have a bitter and hateful expression. She had three points of crying in her voice, and as soon as she opened the door and walked in, she began to shout: "Xiuyi, Xiuyi, where are you?" You're going to help my sister! If you don't help me, it's over. ”
Shuichi Minamino walked out of his bedroom when he heard the sound, and in his left hand he was still holding a single copy of a novella published by his teacher, "The Crab Boat". It was such a thin book, but it was able to sell more than one million copies in Japan in one year. For this reason, he did not feel any surprise, and never doubted that his teacher had the creative ability of a magician. In his mind, the teacher is not a mortal, but the incarnation of Amaterasu who landed in Japan. In fact, he didn't know that this was not an original work by Takeshita Kusaokei, but a masterpiece by Takiji Kobayashi.
The reason why I revisited this book is that I feel that the lives of some Japanese people today are the same as those working on crab boats. They live like maggots in the dung pit, and they work hard all day long, but they don't get the rewards they deserve.
In addition to feeling that the future is bleak and even hopeless, it is struggling with no security to make ends meet. The dispatch system, the Feite people, Internet café refugees, and the poor and busy people all reflect the living and working conditions of the people in the lower stages of capitalism in the book. The only thing that cannot be done is that the form of the advanced stage of capitalism makes it seem as if people are not suffering as much.
"What's wrong with you?" Nanno Shuichi, who is accustomed to shouting and screaming like his old sister, thinks that no matter how miserable she is, she can't be as miserable as the hard-working proletarian Tao on the crab boat.
"Xiuyi, if you don't help my sister this time, then I will have to be fired by the company, resulting in unemployment." Kanho Minamino, who can't wait to squeeze out a few more tears from her two eyes, is really moved.
"What does this have to do with me?" Shuichi Minamino, who had his hands cut behind him, and Monk Zhangji was puzzled, and whether his sister's company would lay off employees or not was not something he could influence.
"Not only does our president admire you, but he's also a big fan of yours. I don't know who spread the word that I am your own sister, so that the whole company and even the entire office building are known. Just before I could call you, our president asked his secretary to call me to his office himself. He told me plainly that he intended to feast you tonight. If you don't go, will my sister be unemployed? Even if he doesn't find an excuse to dismiss me directly, he will definitely not give me good fruit to eat in the future. It's inevitable to wear these little shoes. Rather than stay in the company like that, it's better to stop doing it. Nanno Kaho, who mixed the truth and falsehood, also revealed a pitiful look of uncertainty about his life and death.
"I haven't even met with your president once, so I'm afraid it's not good to accept his banquet for no reason!" For a while, I really couldn't tell whether the old lady was real or fake, and in principle, he still insisted on the way of no merit.
"Xiuyi, can you really bear to see your own sister lose her job? Needless to say, you know the current economic environment. How difficult it is to find a full-fledged job that looks a little decent. Anyway, I don't want to sit idle. What's more, I really like my decent job very much. Minamino Kaho, who still kneaded the truth and falsehood together, said with a bitter melon expression that was more and more decent: "A fan wants to meet his idol, what's the big deal?" Are you a man, are you still afraid that others will do something bad to you? Not only is our president already married, but he also has a very lovely daughter. So, he won't be interested in men. When you meet the above, not only will you not lose a meat or two, but you will also be able to know one more useful person, expand your personal network, and you will be able to do your sister a big favor, killing two birds with one stone, why not? ”
"Sister, is that really the case? Why do I think you're making up stories to fool me again? "I don't believe that it's just a meeting between idols and fans, and it's as simple as eating and eating, and I always feel that there is something strange in this.
Suddenly, it was Kanho Minamino, who was trotting towards the kitchen, and a knife reappeared in front of him. Holding a knife in her right hand, she put the blade on the back of her left hand, as if she was going to pull a knife, but she wouldn't do that at all. He just pretended to say, "The blood in my body and you belong to the Nanno family." If you still think I'm going to hurt you, then I'll cut you and see if our blood is exactly the same. ”
"I promise you to meet and have dinner with your president tonight." Nanno Shuichi, who eats soft and not hard, is not because his sister is blackmailing him, but because he cares about the flesh and blood relationship between the two. If it's really like my sister said, it's just that one of my readers wants to see myself and talk to myself by taking the opportunity, it's completely okay. For this reason, he does not reject it in his heart. I always feel that this will be a drunkard, not alcohol.
raised his left hand and glanced at Shuichi Minamino who had a copy of "Crab Boat" in his hand, and the feeling in his heart was a little more, after all, it was not easy for anyone. Even if you are still living a human life today, you can't guarantee that tomorrow you will live a life like a maggot. The gap between the rich and the poor is widening, and the pressure of work is also increasing...... As a result, even those who have a job are terrified all day long, and they are really afraid that they will lose their jobs one day in the future.
What's more, a person like his sister, not to mention savings, as long as he does not pay his salary for two months in a row, it can be enough to bankrupt him. I also know that people in their generation who do not owe money to the bank are considered rich. This buying a car and buying a house is understandable, and the almost unrestrained use of credit cards to overspend is really not worthy of sympathy. (To be continued.) )
