Chapter 145: Sewers
The vast majority of Chinese artifacts on display in museums are not attributed to their provenance. There is no way to talk about restitution. In later generations, very few cultural relics were recovered in China. There are 3 million copies of cultural classics, but more than 100,000 copies will be returned, and not even a tenth of them. It's really irritating.
The wealth that was plundered to Japan became the abundant capital of the Japanese after the war. Although the Potsdam Proclamation explicitly prohibited Japan from owning military enterprises, after the Japanese converted military enterprises to civilian use, their industrial system was preserved, and the various infrastructure built by laborers plundered from a large number of Asian countries were also preserved. Subsequently, during the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union, Japan became the bridgehead of the Americans in the Asia-Pacific region, and their attitude toward Japan changed to support.
As a result, the wealth plundered by the Japanese from Asian countries was quickly transformed into economic strength and comprehensive national strength. As a result, even after the defeat in World War II, the Japanese could become the world's second-largest economic power in just a few decades. This is a miracle for an island country that is extremely resource-poor, extremely small, and basically dependent on imports for all food and industrial raw materials!
However, later generations, including the Chinese, were superstitious about the Japanese economic model, management methods, and various spirits that did not suit China's national conditions. Chongyang is charming, kneeling and licking a mess. In the eighties and nineties, fake news about the comparison of Chinese and Japanese teenagers camping was everywhere in China. The fallacy that the Chinese generation is inferior to the Japanese generation is unstoppable. But I don't know that Japan's strength does not depend on what kind of generation it is, but on the resources it has stolen from China and other Asian countries!
In later generations, after the massive consumption of these looted resources, Japan was soon overtaken by China, and its position as the world's second economic power was not guaranteed. What kind of spirit, high enough to break through the management of the sky, all the fallacies are self-defeating, and they are in ashes.
After the rest of his life traveled to this era, most of the world development trends in the future were mostly added to the development trend of the world in the future, turning it into a kind of speculation, rather than inevitable. However, when the current events gradually became the same as the speculation that Yu Sheng said, Ye Wuguang and Qing Xiaoyi, and even Chen Tian and others, admired the vision of Yu Sheng.
In the casual conversation, Yu Sheng was naturally indignant at the Japanese plundering wealth from China. After Chen Tian received the news from Ye Wuguang, he knew that this matter was probably involved, so he prepared seriously.
***********
Back then, when Chen Tian had just advanced to the realm of sincerity, he once visited the Japanese gendarmerie at night with the rest of his life. not only poisoned dozens of elites of the Japanese gendarmerie, but also discovered the secret of the role played by Nanzao Yunzi. Therefore, the terrain of the Japanese gendarmerie is extremely familiar.
And after dozens of Japanese gendarmerie elites were poisoned and died, there was a lot of trouble on the beach for a while. However, no matter how much the Japanese investigated, they did not come up with the results of the investigation. In view of the fact that some of the dozens of Japanese elite officers who died had the permission to obtain specially developed drugs and drank alcohol, it was finally concluded that a certain Japanese officer inadvertently poisoned himself while drunk, which eventually led to the death of dozens of Japanese elites.
Since then, the Japanese gendarmerie has been forbidden to drink alcohol from the top down. Even the specially developed potions are strictly limited in terms of usage rights and quotas. Therefore, there are many fewer Chinese who are poisoned by this drug.
According to Chen Tian's speculation, there may only be two storage locations for the cultural relics collected by the Japanese gendarmerie. One was the naval warehouse of the Japanese, and the other was in the gendarmerie. The Japanese Navy's warehouses are mainly used to store munitions and logistical materials. It is unlikely that the issue of the transportation of other things will be considered until the normal replenishment of the warships docked at Shanghai Beach is completed. Therefore, three days before the departure of the resupply after the completion of the supply, the items to be transported to the Japanese mainland by the Japanese expatriates will be collected.
Therefore, the most likely place to store these cultural relics is the Japanese gendarmerie! After everything was ready, Chen Tian decided to go alone and visit the Japanese gendarmerie at night again. However, this time, the preparations were much more detailed than the last time he went in with Yu Sheng.
During the time that Chen Tian lurked in Shanghai, he was not idle. Instead, in the dead of night, I drilled all the sewers on the beach. It's not that he has a hobby of drilling sewers, but because he has heard many legendary stories about sewers for the rest of his life, such as "Spider-Man" who fights monsters in the sewers, "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" who lives in the sewers, and "Magic" that crosses through the sewers......
The sewer network is basically one of the networks that covers every corner of the city, and it is unlikely that someone will be able to do it in order to keep it open. In Shanghai, a place where sediment is deposited, sometimes, in order to keep the water smooth, some places don't even have a strainer, which is enough for one person to pass. Chen Tian can go anywhere he wants with the easy access to sewers in Shanghai, and his tolerance and physical conditioning skills that surpass ordinary people, and he can go quietly.
After drilling through almost every sewer in Shanghai, Chen Tian has a good understanding of the sewer system in Shanghai. He can know exactly which part of the pipe is thinner and which part of the pipe is thicker. Which part tastes terrible, and which part tastes barely bearable. Where there are leaks, and where are they intact.
In this era, there was no sewer system in the more civilian and old-fashioned buildings in Shanghai. For example, there is no sewer system in the old shikumen. You still need a night pot for tuba, so you need the profession of a dung digger. Every day in the narrow alley, every household will put out a huge night pot. The dung diggers then take away the yellow and white items from these night pots.
There are more advanced sewer systems, either villas that have been built at a high cost, or other buildings, or new apartments. And the Japanese gendarmerie, as the station of the Japanese gendarmerie, naturally has a complete launching system. Moreover, due to the large number of people, the sewer pipes are quite thick. Although there are layers of iron filters and barbed wire, it is not an obstacle for Chen Tian, a person who is extremely skilled in kung fu.
Even if I was afraid of alarming the Japanese before, I didn't destroy these filters and barbed wire, so I didn't go in. However, with Chen Tian's spiritual sense, there should be no danger.
There are a lot of trivial things today, only one more! Thank you all for your collection and recommendation these days.
