The news from Yagyu Yuki about the marriage between Tokugawa Kiki and Takagi Saya made Tokugawa Shigemo's expression change.
In terms of force, the Takagi family is inferior, but in terms of financial resources, the Ukoku Isshinkai guild controlled by the Takagi family can be said to be the second largest chaebol in Sakura Country.
The largest chaebol in the Sakura Kingdom are Yamazaki, Shandai and the Gourmet Hills Guild, but they have not expanded significantly.
It is normal for the Takagi family to invest in Tokugawa Kiki, but marriage is not a simple investment.
Tokugawa Shigemo even had some regrets. If he could pull himself down to contact the Takagi family, if he could marry with the Takagi family, then the overall situation would be promising.
However, who would have thought that a tough guy like Takagi Souichiro would actually betray his daughter?
I always thought that Takagi Soichiro would kill anyone who dared to say such a thing.
What a misstep.
"Brother, you don't have to worry," Tokugawa Sumiya said, "If necessary, we can get married, Mr. Yamazaki and I."
"ah?"
"Why are you so surprised? I am a woman and I want to get married."
"No, you are going to be His Majesty."
Tokugawa Chengye said casually: "Why don't you just go? Let's swap positions, and then you marry Miss Meidaizi. Your position will be absolutely stable."
"Are you kidding me? How is this possible?"
"How do you know if you haven't tried it?"
"There's no need to try it."
"Forget it, isn't it Saya Takagi?"
"this……"
"Don't worry, I'll contact you."
"No, even if this matter is implemented..."
"Please, brother, what age are we in this? Do you still have to go through laborious procedures for a blind date?"
Tokugawa Sumiya went to the Disneyland website to find Katsuragi Ai, the ship girl, and asked her to help contact Yamazaki.
Looking at Yamazaki's ordinary face in the video, Tokugawa Chengye hesitated a little, it was too unattractive.
However, there is no need to worry about marriage, beauty or ugliness.
Tokugawa Sumiya steeled herself and proposed marriage to Yamazaki.
Yamazaki was stunned when he heard this, thinking that the person opposite had just had his head caught in the door.
"Okay, just say, don't do it to mother-in-law and mother-in-law, but you are still not a man!"
Yamazaki was crumbling, and Tokugawa Shigema fell directly. Is this really his sister?
"There is no need to consider marriage," Yamazaki said, "but I will take this opportunity to explain it to you."
"What?"
"I will not restore the order of Sakura Country to its previous state, so don't waste your time on this."
"It's a joke, it's not your decision."
"It is true that I am not the only one who has the final say, but I believe no one wants their offspring to be inferior to others as soon as they are born."
"Well……"
Yamazaki said: "As children of aristocratic families, you cannot feel the problems of common children, especially poor children."
"To be honest, Sakura Country's welfare on related issues is not bad, it can even be said to be quite good, but it is still far from enough."
"Why? This is why the bureaucratic family is in power. This causes the resources to be tilted towards you, and the resources are given priority to where they need them."
"No matter what kind of economic plan, we cannot get rid of the fact that the ultimate beneficiaries are related enterprises, and the interests of the people are for sale."
"At the same time, the huge bureaucracy and intricate family relationships have bloated the upper echelons, wasted many resources, and raised all kinds of rice bugs."
"This system cannot be changed at all, because it is the bureaucratic family that created it and they maintain it.
"If you want to change it, you can only completely overthrow the entire bureaucratic family class and rebuild order."
"Since ancient times in Sakura Country, have there been people with such thoughts? I don't know if Oda Nobunaga is one of them. It's hard to say. Maybe because he wasn't, he was strangled by conspiracy."
"As for the Tokugawa family, you chose a family of bureaucracy. During the shogunate era, it can be said that the family class of bureaucracy developed to the extreme and reached destruction."
"But in the rebirth of the order, the last ones in power are still the bureaucratic families, and those people with lofty ideals finally compromised with the bureaucratic families and married into them.
"Those who don't compromise will either end up in idle positions with no ambitions, or simply be killed."
"Even in modern times, it's just a different set of faces. Look at their origins and genealogy to see who is behind them and which family they belong to."
"It has been more than two thousand years, and those families are still ruling the Sakura Kingdom."
"I actually don't have any big ambitions, I'm afraid of things, and I don't want to take on any important responsibilities."
"But now that I have the opportunity and I have the ability, I will definitely break the bureaucratic family system and make the era of first-class bureaucratic families a thing of the past."
"You can stop me, but please don't let me join you. We are taking different paths and it is impossible to come together."
"I also advise you to stop thinking about the past, live in the present, and serve the people of today."
"Ahem," Tokugawa Sumiya said, "What you said is very beautiful. Really, I was almost fascinated."
"However, that is impossible. Even if bureaucrats do not exist, aristocratic families will still exist, and the continuation of wealth will still create children who are superior to others from birth."
"In modern society, bureaucratic families are not the fundamental cause. The fundamental cause is the uneven distribution of wealth."
Yamazaki shook his head, "I think the reason for the uneven distribution of wealth is that bureaucratic families are in power and tilt resources towards them.
"For example, how come your Tokugawa artists are so famous? Do you really think they are good enough? No, they are just a bunch of people praising them."
"To give another foreign example, why did that poor man Van Gogh become famous after his death?"
"It's not because his paintings are so good, it's because the people who get his paintings can work hard and eventually turn Van Gogh's paintings into masterpieces."
"Of course, if you insist on saying how good he is and how others judge him, I can't find a reason to refute him."
"I just want to say that if Van Gogh's painting is in Van Gogh's hands, then it is just a painting."
"I have nothing to argue with this matter. It is indeed difficult to explain clearly." Tokugawa Sumiya said, "But according to the order you mentioned, who will be the leader? There must be a leader, right?"
"For some things, such as trade, we need oil, then we have to negotiate, then purchase, and open a currency clearing agency between the two countries."
Yamazaki shook his head, "The monetary system has collapsed, and the trading system is also incomplete."
"Major transactions are now barter. Oil in the Middle East is now mostly exchanged for daily necessities, clothes, shoes and socks, toothpaste and soap, grains and vegetables, etc."
Tokugawa Sumiya said: "That is also an exchange. Someone needs to negotiate. If we keep it closed, the black ships will be waiting."
Yamazaki said: "No, trading is the behavior of businessmen themselves. When people have needs, businessmen with a keen sense of smell will take action spontaneously."
Tokugawa Sumiya asked: "So, what about dumping, what about monopoly?"
