As the factories of the seven consortia started to work, many workers made a little money, and they could use the money to buy food and supplies on the black market.

This forms a perfect cycle.

Hardy's shipments are larger, and the black market business is booming than before. As the stall spreads out, it is not a big problem to expect to make tens of millions of dollars a month.

In fact, as an economic envoy, Japan's grain and material restrictions can be completely relaxed. Now the US's grain production is very large and it can't be used up at all in the country, but Hardy still adopts the previous restriction policy.

Why?

This can make more money.

Why can I sell them at 10 times the price?

At least this situation will not change within a year.

The most important thing is to use the black market Hardy to trap the gangs in Japan. Now the "Straw Hat Group" has developed rapidly and has become the largest society in Japan, covering all regions of Japan.

This is very helpful to Hardy's later plans.

......

The Japanese Prime Minister received a call from the office of the Economic Special Envoy, Hardy, saying that he had something to discuss with him, and Shigeru Yoshida drove over.

Hardy received Shigeru Yoshida at the apartment.

Now Hardy has greater power than before, in charge of Japanese economy and culture, Shigeru Yoshida is more respectful than before.

The servant brought two cups of tea.

One cup was placed in front of Shigeru Yoshida.

"Prime Minister, please have tea." Hardy said.

Shigeru Yoshida hurriedly leaned to thank him, and at the same time said respectfully: "Don't dare let Mr. Hardy call your Excellency, please call me Yoshida."

Hardy took a sip of his cigar, put it back in the ashtray, and said to Shigeru Yoshida: "I recently discovered something that needs to be changed, so I asked Prime Minister Yoshida to come over and study it."

"Ah~ Mr. Envoy, please speak."

"I saw a document that the prostitutes and brothel industries in Japan were legal before, right?" Hardy asked.

"Yes, it is indeed legal."

Before the defeat of the war, Japan was a feudal society. The brothel business has been inherited for thousands of years and has always been a legal business. In some movies, the capture of prostitutes captures women who have not been legally registered. As long as they are legally registered, they are legal.

"Later MacArthur issued a decree banning brothels and prostitute businesses in Japan, and later legal brothels were banned, right?" Hardy asked.

"Yes, Mr. Hardy, that decree was issued by Commander-in-Chief MacArthur. He felt that the business of prostitutes was detrimental and ordered the brothel business to be illegal. Later, I signed the government executive order."

Shigeru Yoshida was very clear about this matter, because he did it.

"Then the prostitute business is stopped now?" Hardy asked.

Shigeru Yoshida was taken aback.

He immediately said embarrassingly: "No, someone once reported to me that now those women are all turning to underground businesses, and more and more people are engaged in prostitution, probably more than before."

Hardy nodded.

Seriously.

"I think this order has failed. First of all, some states in the United States have also legalized prostitutes. This is also part of the culture."

"Also, some things cannot be prohibited by a single law. Not only have they not disappeared, they have increased. According to my survey, there are probably ten times more women in this industry now."

"In the past, those brothels were legal and controlled by the government. Those women would undergo regular physical examinations. But now, they go underground. No one knows whether they are sick or not. If they get sick, they will infect more people. This will bring great impact to the society. The influence of evil."

Shigeru Yoshida nodded, agreeing with Hardy's statement.

There was a prostitute business for a long time, and Shigeru Yoshida didn't think there was any vulgarity, but was more worried about losing management.

"The most important thing is that in the past, the government could collect taxes on brothel business, but now, all of it goes underground, and the government can't get a penny. It also causes a lot of loss to government revenue. What do you think?" Hardy said.

"It's true." Shigeru Yoshida said.

"So I plan to issue a new decree to lift the previous ban and legalize the brothel business again. This will not only strengthen management, but also increase government revenue. What do you think?" Hardy looked at Shigeru Yoshida and asked .

"Ah~ this is naturally good to untie, but General MacArthur's side?"

This order was issued by MacArthur, and Shigeru Yoshida was worried about angering MacArthur.

Hardy looked at Shigeru Yoshida and said solemnly: "I am an economic envoy, responsible for Japan’s economy and culture. Isn’t the matter of whether brothels are legal? Doesn’t it belong to the economic and cultural category? Since MacArthur made the wrong decision, I have the right to correct him."

"I hope that the Japanese government will issue a new law as soon as possible to remove the original ban. Of course, although it is declared legal, it cannot be opened wherever it wants to be as before. I think some regulations should be formulated."

"For example, all these characteristic industries are concentrated in one area. It is legal to do this kind of business in that area, and it is illegal to leave this area, so it is more convenient to manage."

......

Shigeru Yoshida left Hardy's apartment and sighed slightly after getting in the car. Hardy's envoy was acting on his rights, and this decree was issued by MacArthur. If the government now lets it go, it will definitely make MacArthur annoyed.

Obviously this is the two supreme emperors fighting for power, they are splinted in the middle.

Don't dare to offend on either side.

He can't afford to offend him. Now Hardy is in charge of Japan's economy, and not only the administrative power, but more importantly, Hardy is truly in control of Japan's economic lifeline.

Today's large companies in Japan are all controlled by seven consortia.

Japan's financial industry is all controlled by seven consortia.

Most of Japan's small industries are controlled by the financial industry and indirectly controlled by the seven major consortia.

Offend Hardy,

He can make the Japanese economy collapse with a single thought.

And MacArthur.

In charge of the appointment of the Japanese government, and even the power of life and death.

Shigeru Yoshida felt too difficult.

Back at the Prime Minister's Office, Shigeru Yoshida immediately convened a meeting of cabinet members. In fact, all the ministers in this room felt indifferent to the opening of the brothel business. The matter itself was not a big deal.

The biggest problem is that it involves the struggle between Hardy and MacArthur for rights, which is bad for everyone.

In the end, the Minister of Health and Welfare tentatively said: "Why don't we secretly send a telegram to Commander-in-Chief MacArthur telling this, if General MacArthur objects, we will naturally go to Special Envoy Hardy."

"Both of them are big shots, let them fight for themselves."

"Envoy Hardy said that a decision must be made in up to three days." Shigeru Yoshida said.

"If General MacArthur has an opinion, I guess it will take less than three days to respond." The Minister of Health and Welfare said.

Although this proposal is not clever, but there is no better way, Shigeru Yoshida immediately sent someone to MacArthur secretly sent a telegram.

MacArthur has been at the base in Osaka. After receiving the telegram and reading it, he felt very uncomfortable in his heart. He issued this ban on prostitution. Now Hardy wants to change it, obviously by hitting him in the face.

If it was before, MacArthur would definitely stop Hardy.

But now his cousin Judson’s affairs have not been dealt with properly. He is afraid of uncovering himself, so now he tries to keep a low profile and is unwilling to conflict with Hardy.

Crumple up the telegram and throw it into the wastebasket.

Just pretend that this matter is not known.

Three days later, MacArthur did not respond. The Japanese cabinet members actually understood MacArthur's meaning, but many people were still surprised because it showed that MacArthur was not willing to offend Special Envoy Hardy.

Hardy's position in their hearts increased by one more point.

A few days later.

The Japanese government issued a decree to lift the previously enacted ban on brothel business, but there are other regulations, that is, to operate in a specific area, and it is illegal to exceed the scope.

The right to operate is authorized by the government.

There are many benefits of restricted scope of operation, easy to form a large-scale, more convenient to manage, this decree immediately aroused widespread concern in the Japanese society.

Many people rejoiced.

Especially men.

After all, this is a tradition that has persisted for a thousand years. It is a pity to cancel it. With a legal venue, there will be no need to cover it up in the future.

In fact, the Japanese government is also very willing to see this result. Before the ban was issued, all the business on the surface was transferred underground, and the government could no longer collect taxes. Now after legalization, the government can still collect a tax.

And don't underestimate this tax. The Japanese government is very poor now, and this income is definitely not a small income.

"Yomiuri Shimbun ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ re-establishing the legalization of brothels has many benefits. Practitioners will undergo regular medical examinations to become safer. The government can collect taxes and have legal protection. Practitioners are more stable. Also more active. "

"The Asahi Shimbun".

"Japanese society should have its own characteristics. Custom Street is one of Japan’s business cards. In the future, it may attract more people to Japan. Japan must become more open. This is very good. We must chant, "Open Japan welcomes." The whole world will come'."

......

Many businessmen immediately saw the benefits, but when they found the government and hoped to obtain the right to operate, they found that they couldn't get it at all, and all the right to operate was given out.

Hardy asked to open up this business, naturally he wanted to control this business. He had previously asked Duncan to unify the gang for the Custom Street business.
