Chapter 432: Isamu Teuchi: The teacher is really a great thinker
A private room on the second floor of Juxian Building.
There was a fine banquet on the table, including chicken, duck and fish, but there were only three people, Zhou Weihan, in the private room.
The monk glanced at the sumptuous food on the table and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"Master, when I came up, I took a look and wondered why the food on the table on this floor is different from the food in our private room?" the monk asked doubtfully.
Zhou Weihan couldn't help but smile, and the first thing he thought of was Isamu Terauchi's flirtatious temperament.
"Why else? Damn it! This table will cost at least two yuan. There are at least hundreds of tables in the entire Juxian Tower. How much does it cost to have a birthday banquet in the temple?"
"Damn it, this old devil is really good at making money. How much money will he make from a birthday party?" the monk cursed angrily.
Through multiple sources of information and Jia Gui's confirmation, Zhou Weihan was absolutely sure that Temple Yong wanted to make money through the birthday party.
And this suggestion was made by the loser Huang Jinbiao in order to win the favor of Yong in the temple.
However, the specific method of making money was figured out by Isamu Terauchi himself. The area involved was not only Handan City, but also the 14 subordinate counties. The First and Second Brigades of the Imperial Association Army assisted the local Japanese army in responsible for
Notice to large households in the location of the defense zone.
There are clear standards for gifts. If the gift is less than 500 yuan, it will be collected in person and does not need to be used to attend the birthday banquet.
If you spend 500 to 1000 yuan, you can come to the Juxian Tower to attend the banquet, but you can only sit in the lobby on the first floor.
Those who pay more than 2,000 yuan can sit in a private room on the second floor and be personally received by Isamu Temple.
Half of the wealthy households in Handan were coerced into participating in birthday banquets, but the other half were eager to do so.
The reason is that the puppet army who came to notify them conveyed Terauchi Isamu's instructions, which roughly meant that the new official took office with three things in mind. The imperial army needs everyone to work together to maintain local security. Most of the original government personnel are about to be dismissed, and now there are many vacancies.
Position, participating in the birthday banquet is equivalent to obtaining an official position in advance in disguise.
Since Temple Yong took charge of Handan, the recent changes in Handan have been well known to the big households in the counties who have been waiting and watching.
When the Japanese army was there, big businessmen were like lambs to be slaughtered. No matter how powerful or prestigious you were in the local area, if the little devils said they would kill you, they would kill you.
After Terauchi Isamu came, although he collected exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes in various names, his life was saved at least.
When the Japanese army occupied more than half of China, not everyone kept the hope of victory in their hearts. Some wealthy households suddenly became excited. Faced with the olive branch offered by Isamu Terauchi, they could get an official position with a little money.
Half-time job, how could I refuse?
However, attending the birthday banquet only gave me a pass. If I want to seek higher positions, such as important positions in various counties, I still need to show more sincerity to Terauchi Isamu.
As for Zhou Weihan and the others, they came empty-handed. If Kang Shunzi hadn't been waiting outside the door of Juxian Tower, they might not even be able to get in.
At this time, on the innermost platform of the hall on the first floor, Isamu Terauchi stood in front of the microphone as the birthday boy and was speaking, crying as he spoke.
Guests in the private rooms on the second floor crowded in the aisle on the second floor to watch Isamu Temple's performance, but Zhou Weihan did not join in the fun.
"Boss, what is this devil talking about? Why are you crying!" said Tian Defu on the side.
Zhou Weihan looked through the window: "I can't hear clearly, I seem to be missing my mother!"
"Master, there's no one else in our room, can we have dinner now?" the monk asked anxiously.
"Monk, I'm not talking about you. You ate six of the donkey meat you had for lunch. Besides, our usual food is not bad. Why are you like a starving ghost reincarnated!"
"Master, you can't store oil and water in your stomach. Looking at this meat, I have acid reflux in my stomach!"
What the monk said is true. The Tainan Military Region was the first to open a breeding farm. The food is much better than in other base areas, but the Tainan Military Region also has many troops.
Originally it could be supplied by an independent detachment, but the new regiment and the 28th regiment were gradually incorporated into the Tainan Military Region, and then three basic regiments were expanded.
Normally when soldiers prepare meat dishes, only one platoon of soldiers can be given one chicken. To do this, a lot of potatoes and beans must be added to the pot.
"Eat eat eat!"
After Zhou Weihan finished speaking, the monk and Tian Defu didn't even move their kuaizi and started directly. Both of them stared at the roast chicken on the table.
"Don't grab it, each person gets half!"
In the blink of an eye, the whole roast chicken was split in half by the two of them.
"I'm telling you, don't touch the elbows and roast duck on the table. Pack them back and give them to the political commissars to take back!" Zhou Weihan warned.
The three of them, Zhou Weihan and Zhou Weihan, were feasting in the private room, but the other guests were in dire straits. Yong Yong in the temple said something, and the translator translated it, which took more than half an hour.
After a while, there was a knock on the door, and it was Isamu Terauchi who came in.
Zhou Weihan motioned to the two monks who had eaten and drank enough to go and guard the door.
"Terauchi-kun, I would also like to congratulate you on your birthday!"
"Mr. Zhou, thank you very much for coming to my birthday party!" Isamu Terauchi responded with a very polite bow.
However, Zhou Weihan took this opportunity and said: "When I came to Handan this time, I found that the changes are really big. It can be seen that Temple Yong has won the hearts of the people!"
Terauchi Yong sat on the table and looked slightly satisfied: "Haha, this is all thanks to the leader of your army. In my spare time, I often read his works. Some of the remarks in them really benefited me a lot and convinced me.
He is simply a great thinker comparable to Fukuzawa Yukichi!"
"Oh, Terauchi-kun, can you share your insights with me?" Zhou Weihan was even curious about what great truth Isamu Terauchi had realized.
"Society is made up of people. Wherever there are people, there will be class distinctions. This is also reflected in Japan!"
"In China, no, in China, or in the vast towns and villages of Handan, the majority are poor people, but the means of production are in the hands of a small number of landlords!"
"Throughout the history of China, the rise and fall of dynasties has been driven by the landlord class. Whoever gets the support of the landlords will conquer the world!"
"At present, the National Government has the support of the landlord class, but the leaders of your army have taken a different approach, won the support of the broad masses of the people, and opened up a new world in the vast countryside!"
Temple Yong paused for a moment. He usually had nothing to say. His face was full of enthusiasm for sharing, and his eyes seemed to be burning with blazing fire.
At this moment, Zhou Weihan even felt that comrade Isamu Terauchi had a better understanding of our party's theory than he did.
"Another point is to distinguish between friends and foes, who can be united with and who needs to be attacked!"
"The above theory can be fully implemented in Handan. Ordinary people with little money can completely become the target of unity, while those wealthy landlords and old wealthy people who were photographed by the imperial army only dare to complain in private can completely become the target of attack.
Object!"
"In this process, some tyrant squires who violate laws and disciplines and are punished in the fish and meat township will be punished, and at the same time, we can win the hearts of the general public. Why not do it?" Comrade Terauchi Isamu said eloquently.
