Beginning in mid-1947, Yu Sheng and a number of American chaebols plundered and exploited Japan's various resources, and the speed of effect was far faster than Yu Sheng expected. According to the calculation of the rest of his life, if he plunders and destroys all kinds of resources of the Japanese in an orderly manner, including forests, seafood, land, minerals, and so on.

It will take 10 years to see results. Ten years from now, the Japanese islands will be completely barren. There will be little land suitable for farming, water suitable for drinking, seafood that can be caught, and minerals that can be exploited.

However, in the calculation of the rest of his life, it is obvious that human greed is ignored. Modern commerce and industry, the model of exquisiteness is to change one into two, two into four, with the plundered resources and capital, to rapidly expand the scale of production. When the first batch of cheap timber was snapped up by countries that were in dire need of reconstruction after the war, no one squandered the money.

Almost invariably, they chose to buy more machines and hire more people. Going deeper into the mountains, the various national parks set up by the Japanese were powerless to stop the power of the expansion of wealth. A large amount of wood, even regardless of the age of the tree. As long as it looks usable, it will be cut down and dragged away. This exponential increase in cutting capacity far exceeds the calculation of the rest of your life.

Almost in a year and a half, a large number of forests in Japan's Hokkaido Forest Farm were cut down. And the forest farms in Kyushu and Shikoku will also be lost. Honshu is one of the most urbanized in Japan, and there are not many forest farms in the first place. While most of the forest farms in Hokkaido, Kyushu and Shikoku were cut down like crazy, more than half of the Japanese forest farms were wiped out.

In later generations, the Japanese became famous for their accumulation of forest farms. However, according to later statistics, more than half of the forest farms in Japan were located in later generations. It is artificially planted and accumulated. Most of these artificial accumulation forests began to accumulate in the fifties and sixties after World War II, when the Japanese were able to eat enough.

At this time, Japan did not have such an exaggerated forest stock as later generations. So, it's also fast. A year and a half later. The original wooded mountains are only left with wooden stakes left behind after felling.

Soil erosion began after extensive destruction of the forest farms, and in early March 1949, Japan's first spring rains struck. At the same time, the snow and ice accumulated in Hokkaido during the winter began to thaw and thaw. When the huge ice breaks and melts, it turns into a torrent of water rushing away, and the soil and sand that have no forest vegetation to fix their roots also melt and fall from the sky with the snow and ice. Massive churn.

In many places, the rivers that were originally short have been silted up and blocked. Subsequently, flash floods, mudslides and landslides followed. Torrents, mudslides and landslides poured down from the rivers covered or washed away many farmlands in a short period of time. Cannot be cultivated.

However, it is not the geological disaster that makes matters worse.

The best location for a paper mill. It is in a place where there are plenty of raw materials and plenty of water. Many of Hokkaido's paper mills, built by Yusheng and many chaebols, occupy a place with rivers and forests. Felled wood waste, cheap branches and leaves, is the most popular raw material for paper mills.

It is precisely because of these raw materials that the production cost and product quality of these dozens of paper mills are cost-effective. Much higher than other paper mills. With this low-cost, high-quality paper, Hokkaido's paper mills were soon able to sell their products all over the world.

And where these paper mills are located, this is also where the farmland is. And because the land is close to farmland, it is directly facing the market. There are also several fertilizer factories in these places.

Originally, although these paper mills and fertilizer factories were seriously polluted, the surrounding people saw that their wages were high enough and the pollution was limited, so they put up with it. However, as soon as this torrent came. The pollutants that had been deposited in the river quickly dispersed.

After the impact, almost all places where there is sediment will emit a foul smell. There is no way to cultivate again, and even if it is barely cultivated, no one dares to eat the grain grown. This field is completely destroyed.

Hokkaido is dotted with large and small rivers, and almost every river has one or two paper mills or fertilizer factories built next to it, and almost all of Hokkaido is stinky. Hokkaido's already small farmland was destroyed by a spring rain and a thaw of snow and ice!

After expert inspection, all the soils covered by flash flood sediments have a large number of heavy metal substances and other toxic compounds. These substances are enough to poison every Japanese person to death. These things that grow on the soil must not be eaten.

The natural world is a whole, and the impact of this environmental destruction, which was unexpected by everyone, is far more than that. Hokkaido is famous not because of the lush forests on its islands, but because it is home to the world's largest fishing ground, the Hokkaido Fishing Grounds.

Hokkaido Fishing Ground, located at the confluence of the Kuril Cold Current and the Japanese Warm Current. Due to the difference in the density of seawater, the denser cold water sinks, and the less dense warm water rises, and the seawater undergoes vertical agitation, bringing the organic matter deposited on the seafloor to the surface. As a result, plankton is abundant in the amount of plankton that depends on these organic matter, and fish that feed on plankton are also extremely abundant.

The main area where the rest of the people are fishing is in the Hokkaido fishing grounds. After two years of uncontrolled fishing, Hokkaido's fish stocks have declined in both quantity and quality. At this time, a large amount of pollutants are washed away by rain and snow melt and flow into Hokkaido's fishing grounds, causing the remaining fish to be wiped out.

After the large-scale influx of these pollutants into the sea, the fish that remained only in Hokkaido's fishing grounds were poisoned. A large number of dead fish float on the surface of the sea. The seabirds that ate the poisoned fish also died. Float on the surface of the sea with dead fish.

For a time, the world's largest Hokkaido fishing ground became a dead sea. Similar things are happening not only in the Hokkaido fishing grounds, but also in the coastal areas of Kyushu and Shikoku, where the same thing is happening in some small fishing grounds.

Some aquaculture industries along the coast of Japan have suffered heavy losses because of this pollution. Fortunately, because there are too many things to do, Yu Sheng has not paid much attention to marine aquaculture, and has not invested a lot of money in the operation of the seafood farms that have been acquired. Otherwise, it will also hurt the muscles and bones.

On the contrary, the seafood that was caught and hoarded in large quantities in the past has been killed in large numbers in Hokkaido's fishing grounds. When the price of seafood rose rapidly, he made a lot of money. Yu Sheng's new round of acquisitions of closed marine farms and aquaculture companies has quietly begun again.

As soon as this incident came out, the Japanese government and the opposition were shocked. Just received the American Dodge Route, this economic aid program supported by the Japanese. The joy is gone. The little affection that the Americans had just sprouted disappeared in an instant.

Across Japan, people in areas polluted by factories invested by the Americans finally began to make a fuss after a long time apart from the two atomic bombs. This time, it's no longer a matter of going on tour, because whether it's food, seafood, or pollutants that can poison people. All threaten the very existence of the Japanese.

A large number of people gathered around these factories, throwing stones and throwing banners, pulling banners and shouting slogans that were earth-shattering. There was a commotion. These factories had to be temporarily shut down. The Japanese upper echelons, on the other hand, were very calm and did not take advantage of the situation and ask the Americans for more benefits.

Because while the Japanese people began to make a fuss, the Americans stopped doing it. There is no need to say hello for the rest of your life at all. The plutocratic alliance, which agreed to advance and retreat together, gave MacArthur orders directly through the United States. MacArthur was asked to quell the riots and guarantee the legitimate investments and legitimate interests of American businessmen in Japan.

MacArthur could not back down. Because, if this matter is not handled well. The deterrence of the two atomic bombs will disappear, and the 100 million jade pieces planned by the Japanese before the defeat will become a reality. After all, although the army of the Japanese was disbanded. Twenty Class A war criminals have been executed. However, a large number of battle-hardened Japanese veterans remained.

As long as someone raises their arms, it is entirely possible to quickly gather a large, well-trained, and highly effective army again. When it comes to positional warfare, the Americans are no match for the Japanese. Americans in World War II. To be able to crush Japan, it basically relied on the strength of the navy and air force. One is not good, the American GIs stationed in Japan will all be trapped here.

If MacArthur chooses to sacrifice the interests of American businessmen, not to mention that the contract does not require these American businessmen to carry out environmental protection and sewage treatment, American businessmen produce according to the contract, which is reasonable and legal. Even if these American businessmen and MacArthur were willing to compromise and back down, who knows if the Japanese would think that the American boss was weaker and could be bullied, and plot to counterattack again, as Pearl Harbor did?

Therefore, MacArthur did not choose to compromise in the face of these Japanese demonstrators. Instead, American GIs were sent to suppress it. High-pressure water cannons and tear gas canisters were used to fight in battle, and they were even more ruthless in arresting people. It only took three or two days to fill the Japanese prison.

However, the high-pressure policy will only work for a while. After discovering that the force could not be forced, the Japanese simply came to non-violent non-cooperation. Strikes are discontinued, and, everywhere publicized. In the end, these polluting American factories could not recruit a single worker, and in the end they could not afford to lose money and moved out on their own.

Unexpectedly, in this way, these united American plutocrats were angry. Not only did they unite to put pressure on the US mainland, but some people also suggested that the Japanese should be starved of food for the rest of their lives, so as to give the Japanese a good look.

The rest of his life "thought" for a long time, and "reluctantly" agreed. And said to the chaebols that he would not give up on the Japanese grain market. During the period of the grain cut, these chaebols had to unite to prevent other grain merchants from sending grain to Japan.

The chaebols readily agreed. This request doesn't cost anything anyway.

The rest of his life was happy, and this plan was something he had already thought of. It's just that he didn't expect it to be carried out so quickly, and besides, someone actually brought it up to him first. If he doesn't conform to public opinion, he is really too unkind.

Five days after the factories of the American chaebols were shut down, Yu Sheng announced that he would stop shipping grain to Japan because of the Japanese's breach of commercial contracts. At this time, the Japanese discovered that the food supplied for the rest of their lives had actually accounted for as much as seventy percent of the grain circulating in the market!

The rest of their lives were stopped, and the food left over by the Japanese was only enough to eat for a month. A large number of Japanese farmers have signed contracts with Yusheng or Osaka merchant groups, and a large amount of arable land has been planted with cash crops such as tobacco and tea. These things don't fill your stomach at all.

After a month, the Japanese will have nothing to eat. It is foreseeable that this time the Americans will certainly not help Japan again, and the American chaebols, whose interests in Japan have been damaged, will help the rest of their lives and block all channels for the Japanese to obtain food from the outside world.

Moreover, although it is claimed to be a month, it takes time to deliver the food itself, and if the matter is not dealt with as soon as possible. Even if the rest of his life was willing to ship grain to Japan a month later, it would be too late.

Therefore, as soon as this news came out, it was immediately blocked by the Japanese upper echelons. It's a good thing that the lower classes don't know the urgency of the matter. Once the news leaks, then whoever knows that they may starve to death in a month will not sit idly by.

If the news leaks out, Japan will inevitably be in chaos. It is even possible that even the American GIs will not be able to deter them, and when the time comes, Japan will really be finished.

In order to survive, the Japanese had to beg to come to the door. The person who came turned out to be Masatoshi Okochi, who had robbed the antique business on the black market in Tokyo secretly and for the rest of his life, and although he was a Class A war criminal, he had now been released by MacArthur, and the leading figure among Japan's many chaebols.

Masatoshi Okochi was a highly accomplished physicist, and was one of the leaders of Japan's atomic bomb research program during World War II. Moreover, this person was of noble birth, and in the upper class of Japan, he was also considered a nobleman. Tall and handsome.

Even though he is old now, Masatoshi Okochi is also an old rich and handsome man. Combining nobility, wealth and bookishness, it can be regarded as a rare character. The Japanese upper echelons sent this person to negotiate with Yu Sheng, which can be regarded as giving Yu Sheng enough face.

Although I came to Japan for the rest of my life, I spent most of my time dealing with Americans. Even when dealing with the Japanese, they are mostly condescending, and they have not experienced too formal Japanese-style diplomatic occasions. In the face of a series of bows from Masatoshi Okochi, I was very uncomfortable.

Japanese etiquette, though, originated in China. But they have learned to be different, and where there should be no etiquette, they all have to bow and thank you. Although as the saying goes, it is not strange to have many people, and more oil is not bad for the dish. However, once there is too much etiquette, it will inevitably feel a little fake. As if hiding something. (To be continued.) )

PS: First of all, thank you for the extinct monthly pass of the prodigal son of the book friend!

Also, thank you to all the new and old book friends who subscribe to this book! In the past two days, the major post bars have been blocked, and everyone has shouted and beaten piracy for a while. Singing to see that the gods all over the sky have made a move, although he is a small transparent one, but under curiosity, he also took a look at his own book. Then I found out that even a book like a cappella that hit the street was pirated by someone, which is really ...... Cappella just wants to ask, is it enough for piracy?

However, although the book of the cappella is remote, Baidu has nearly 50,000 results, which still explains the problem. If, if you look at other websites, you all come to subscribe to the book of cappella, no more, only one person only orders one chapter, then the cappella instantly becomes rich and handsome...... If it is fully subscribed, then the cappella can not only become rich and handsome, but also become the CEO......

Therefore, the cappella is very grateful to the book lovers who subscribe to the cappella book - in the case of piracy, insist on the genuine version; Hold on to ethics without supervision. It's a model for book lovers! There is a way, see the wisdom and think together, and there are book friends who want to be a model, you might as well order two more chapters (*^__^*)!
