Yubari City is located in the southeast of the RB Hokkaido Sorachi Comprehensive Promotion Bureau, and the city is at its most prosperous.

In the 70s of the 20th century, the population was close to 147,000, and the coal production was close to one-fifth of the whole RB.

However, after entering the 80s, Yubari City began to have a large exodus of people......

By the 21st century, Yubari City had a population of only 8,110 people, which was only higher than that of Utashinai City (3,312 people), which is also in Hokkaido, and was one of the bottom two cities in RB by population.

The Yubari City Government has already declared financial bankruptcy and has entered a long period of financial reconstruction.

…………

Historically, the Yubari authorities have been embraced by the fanatical rhetoric that claimed that RB was a superpower leading the emerging way of life, and completely ignored the harsh climate of Yubari City, in the face of the imminent demise of its main industry.

The mayor of Yubari City, Yoshida Hisashi, made a desperate gamble to build a huge theme park for the historical town of coal mines, and vigorously developed the tourism industry.

But in this park, there are only some ordinary rides, such as roller coasters and large Ferris wheels.

There are also some weird projects, such as the Universal Animal House, the Coal Experience Mine;

Just listen to the name and don't understand the meaning of the project - rolling sleigh, atomic ship, god of the sea;

Wuqu Coal History Museum, Yubari City History and Culture Museum;

In addition, it also established a luxury positioning melon, and the "melon bubble" occurred, a melon was once hyped for more than one million yen, and even designed an exaggerated cartoon image as an endorsement;

This kind of unrealistic transformation has completely dragged down the prosperity of Yubari City.

…………

Beginning in the 70s, the coal mines were gradually closed, and with them the population, a large number of people began to move to other cities to earn a living, and the city deteriorated.

In 2006, Yubari City's finances deteriorated and it declared bankruptcy, and since then it has entered a long period of financial reconstruction, and now the main industry is the cultivation of the famous Yubari melon.

At night, you can only see a dark scene, with only a few lights shining.

The population has fallen to more than 8,000 people, and despite the government's efforts to transform and revitalize, there is still little improvement.

The current Yubari is a city with several "most", and most of them are "the most" unpleasant.

Demographically, Yubari is the oldest city in RB, and possibly the oldest city in the world and in history. 、

In 2010, the average age of its residents was 57 years old, and it is expected to rise to 75 years in 2020.

At that time, there will be more people over 90 than under 40, and Yubari may become the first city in the world to live on pensions.

…………

Today, its population is declining dramatically, and the proportion of children in the population is lower than in other RB cities, with only one in 50 people under the age of 15.

In Yubari, 1 person dies for every 12 babies born.

Due to various bankruptcies and bankruptcies, Yubari is burdened with the heaviest debt burden, but its financial funds are the most meager.

Local officials and mayors receive the lowest salaries.

From 1998 to 2012, the city's per capita tax revenue fell by almost a third.

…………

In the 21st century, there is no graffiti in Yubari, no one vandalizes public property, and there is hardly any crime.

In a year's time, there will not be a single felony.

In 2013, Yubari committed less than one crime per week. Thankfully, the local government has not abdicated or scaled back its responsibilities: there are still at least a dozen post offices, and the firetrucks are in good condition and ready to go.

If you look at public phones, you'll notice that they're all brand new.

The direct cause of the decline of Yubari City is the decline of the main industry.

The deep-seated reasons are the failure of industrial transformation, the continuous migration of young people, the shrinking consumption caused by the aging and declining birthrate, and the further depression of the economy, a vicious circle......

…………

The fate of resource-based cities in high-latitude areas:

If you succeed, you will be Nordic, and if you lose, you will be in the evening.

…………

The death of the former mayor Yoshida Hisashi did not change the trajectory of Yubari City's history.

At present, according to Nakata's urban philosophy, the entire city is still accelerating towards the abyss of bankruptcy......

In this case, the so-called "Yubari City City Department の 100,000 large market" is simply a mirror.

In addition, Ishikariya's "Ume--village and town expansion strategy" is mainly to avoid the city department controlled by large restaurant chains, and use the strategy of surrounding the city with villages and towns to occupy the market vacuum.

………………………………

The Municipal Revitalization and Development Bureau has approved a series of large-scale tourism industry projects and issued a series of urban bonds with financial guarantees, but funds are still very tight.

As a result, the Yubari City Promotion and Development Bureau aimed at the village town's treasury.

The treasury of Naganuma, Yuren, and Kuriyama refused on the grounds that they had already passed the relevant village and town revitalization bill, and that they wanted to allocate funds to support local companies and subsidize unemployed workers.

…………

Yubari City Promotion and Development Bureau investigates.

It was found that the money for the "Tourism Industry Support Bill" in Naganuma Town and the "Subsidy Bill for Unemployed Workers" passed by the Nimachi and Kuriyama Town Councils were all in the hands of unemployed coal workers.

The coal workers then used the money to join Ishikariya. In addition, the subsidy amount is 500,000 yen, which is exactly the same as the one-year franchise fee of Ishikariya.

The mayor of Naganuma Town, the majority of the two councils of Yuren Town and Kuriyama Town, is exactly the joint camp of the Hokkaido Coal Mine Local Governments.

Nobunaga Hato, the head chef of Yosen Restaurant and the president of Ishikari House, happens to have a close relationship with Goro Kamado, the head of the autonomous association.

This familiar taste......

Nakata Yusui, who was born in the Haoqiang family, is very familiar with this kind of transaction.

This is the most orthodox RB political model......

So, there is this scene of visiting Nobunaga Hato, the chef of Yangquan Restaurant.

………………………………

Considering that Nakata Yukiho was single, Nobunaga Hatoshi completely lost patience, so he simply stopped being false and wronged, and directly rejected the other party.

The two negotiated and broke up unhappily.

…………

In the evening, Kifutaro looked at the "Weekly Bunharu" in his hand.

This magazine has risen to prominence and is very popular in the Hokkaido region.

Whether it is a top firm, the godfather of a girl group, a superstar, or a prime minister, a politician, or a yakuza, all of them are within the range of Wen Chuncang.

Because "you dare to break the news about anything", "Weekly Wenchun" is known as "RB No. 1 Weekly".

…………

Kifutaro suddenly said, "Chef." The female captain at noon turned out to have a boyfriend. Her boyfriend is a Hokkaido の道 councilor. ”

"Nani?" Nobunaga Hatoshi was surprised and said, "Baga! Why didn't you say it earlier! ”

Yukiho Nakata!

Have a boyfriend!

The DNA in Nobunaga's body beats.

She recalls the Maritime Self-Defense Force badge she wore on her chest and a dark purple Navy T-shirt during the noon negotiations......

Picture playback in my mind......

Oops, it's the feeling of heartbeat.

Nobunaga Hato, who regretted it a little, directly refused to talk about it, which was a pity.

Obviously, you can choose a day with multiple [good reviews from diners], and with the help of super luck, try to develop a day-and-face romance......

………………………………

After a few more weeks, the Ishikariya franchise business is in full swing.

However, Nobunaga noticed something and something was starting to go wrong......
