Chapter 580 Revisiting the old place

As expected, the fundamental reason is that the United States is unwilling to completely cripple Japan in the context of ideological disputes. Therefore, in addition to the food aid John mentioned on the surface, the U.S. government must also provide other

Assistance, but John may not be clear about this part.

The reason why Fang Lang asked John why Japan's economy recovered so quickly was actually to complain and express his dissatisfaction.

"Forget it, now that the situation has developed like this, we can't stop it. We might as well take advantage of Japan's rapid economic development to maximize our own interests."

John did not expect that Fang Lang's self-regulation ability would be so strong. Just now he wanted to send Japan into primitive society, but now he happily accepted the status quo and was ready to take the opportunity to expand his own interests.

In fact, Fang Lang is not really that big-hearted. The main reason is that he comes from later generations and knows the history that will follow. He understands that even if Japan is in dilapidated condition, as long as the Peninsula War starts, they will still develop rapidly.

There was absolutely nothing he could do to stop this trend.

"Then shall we continue strolling around the streets of Tokyo, or shall we send you back?"

John noticed that Fang Lang's interest didn't seem to be very high, so he turned around to ask for his opinion.

Fang Lang shook his head indifferently.

"You're all here, of course you have to take a good look. Let's go to the devil's palace to have a look."

He said he wanted to see the palace, but in fact Fang Lang's real purpose was to see the temple that he had destroyed with his own hands. He didn't know what the world was like now after being completely destroyed by him for more than four years.

If the Japanese have been rebuilt now, he doesn't mind setting a fire somewhere. After all, the Americans are helping the Japanese people who can no longer survive. He can still persuade himself to accept it, but wherever they are enshrined, they are

Some damn bastards, if the Japanese rebuild somewhere when their economy has just started to improve, he will doubt whether the Japanese really accept the fate of their defeat and reflect on it.

John did not participate in Fang Lang's actions in Tokyo, so he did not know that Fang Lang had organized such an action near the Tokyo Imperial Palace. He thought that Fang Lang just wanted to visit the Japanese Imperial Palace out of curiosity.

As a tour guide, he readily accepted Fang Lang's request.

"There is absolutely no problem in visiting near the Japanese imperial palace, but if you want to visit inside the palace, I have to apply to you before I can arrange it for you. I may not be able to make it today."

When Fang Lang heard John's words, he waved his hands and said:

"No, I have no interest in visiting the palace. If I really go in and see the Japanese Tianhuang, I might not be able to help but push him to the ground and rub him, which would cause a diplomatic dispute."

Hearing Fang Lang's words, John couldn't help laughing.

"Are you serious about pressing him to the ground and rubbing him? The Japanese Tianhuang is short and ugly. You probably won't be interested in him after you see him. If you really want to rub him, you might as well consider his queen, and

Princess."

Of course this was a joke. Although Japan was defeated, the Americans still retained Japan's status as Tianhuang, and they would certainly not allow outsiders to ravage the head of state so easily.

"What I said about rubbing on the ground is to let him rub against the ground repeatedly, not between me and the other person. I really have no interest in the Japanese queen and princess you mentioned.

In order to ensure bloodlines, the Japanese royal family almost always marry close relatives, and I have no interest in women born into such families."

If given the chance, Fang Lang will definitely wipe out all the men in the Japanese royal family, but he may not necessarily be able to do it to women, but if he sells them somewhere, he can still make atonement.

of.

After John looked up and down at Fang Lang beside him, he said with some surprise:

"I didn't expect that you know so much about the Japanese royal family. How come I didn't know that they are all consanguineous? Are you sure what you said is the truth?"

Fang Lang learned this knowledge from later generations. The Japanese royal family during this period was still very sacred in the hearts of the Japanese, and no one would offend them. Therefore, the phenomenon of inbreeding within the other family except those Japanese nobles and the government

Except for the high-ranking officials, most people don't know.

Therefore, it is quite normal for John Clark, an American, to be ignorant.

"Whether it's true or not, won't it be clear to you if you go and find out? This secret should be easy for you Americans to find out!"

Seeing Fang Lang's unconcerned look, John knew that this guy wasn't lying. He thought it was a joke but instantly felt bad.

"Fake, these Japanese dwarfs are really disgusting!"

The two of them were talking and laughing all the way, discussing the secrets of the Japanese royal family. The motorcade slowly arrived near the Japanese Imperial Palace. Fang Lang casually glanced in the direction of the palace through the car window and saw that even the people standing guard at the door were Americans.

After joining the army, Fang Lang immediately lost interest.

According to his own memory, he directed the driver to drive the car to the place in his memory.

It is already very cold in Tokyo, Japan at the end of November, and you can occasionally see unmelted snow in some places. The temple not far from the palace, which was originally dedicated to the royal family, is now in ruins, and fire can still be seen faintly on the ground.

Traces of burning.

The burned construction debris has been cleared away, leaving behind a huge open space. The snow in the open space has not been swept away. It looks like a dilapidated scene, as if the Japanese have completely abandoned the place.

But Fang Lang could see that the Japanese had no intention of giving up here. The original Tokyo was full of bombed ruins and dilapidated scenes, but as Japan's economy slowly recovered, burned buildings everywhere

The houses have been renovated.

A prosperous scene has been restored, but this place still looks dilapidated and neglected. This seems to be a shame left by the Japanese deliberately to remind them not to forget.

Seeing this situation, a cold light flashed in Fang Lang's eyes.

"John, it seems inappropriate to have such a ruin so close to the palace! I wonder if you are familiar with Japanese government officials. Can you help ask about the planning here and see what the Japanese are planning to build here?

ah!

If possible, I would like to buy it and build the Japanese headquarters building of our Fangyuan Group here. After all, this is also the Japanese Imperial Palace, and it seems good to have the opportunity to be a neighbor with an emperor!"

After John heard Fang Lang's words, he couldn't help but be startled. He turned his head and glanced at the ruins, and then looked at the direction of the palace. The distance was really close. He also looked at the surrounding environment. It seemed to be a really good place.

"Hey! Don't tell me, this place is really nice! But it's too close to the palace. If you build a high-rise here, wouldn't you be able to see what their Tianhuang is doing from upstairs every day? The Japanese

It will definitely not be allowed.

I think this is a very suitable place to build my dehydrated vegetable processing factory. Look at the huge area here and it is located in a real bustling area of ​​Tokyo. The future development prospects must be very good. If the value of this land increases in the future, I will make a fortune.

Already."

In fact, John knew very well where this place was. After all, when this place was destroyed, the fire burned for several days and nights, but the expressions of the Japanese who looked like their parents were dead are still fresh in John's memory.

As soon as he heard that Fang Lang said that he wanted to build a headquarters building here, he knew that this guy had bad intentions, so he couldn't help but tease him.

Fang Lang is not a fool. John said that the land value in this place can increase, which is for sure, but as he said, there is no way to build high-rise buildings here, and even if you buy it and develop real estate, you won't make much money.

Looking at the other party's half-smiling expression, I realized that the other party must also know where this place is, and that's why he said this to me on purpose.

"Why, do you know where this place is?"

"Aren't you talking nonsense? The fire was burning here for a long time, and the whole of Tokyo was in chaos. How could I not know that!"

John rolled his eyes at Fang Lang angrily.

Hearing this, Fang Lang smiled sheepishly, glanced at the driver who was driving, and did not tell the secret.

"Okay! It seems that there is no chance of buying this place, but see if you can help me find the Japanese government to understand the planning here. I really want to know what the Japanese plan to do with this place."

John glanced at Fang Lang in surprise.

"Are you serious?"

After speaking, he looked at the ruins outside the window and said with some uncertainty:

"I have heard about this place, and many American military officers have also expressed dissatisfaction with the existence here. I guess it is unlikely that the Jingguo Sacred Toilet will be rebuilt here. It is more likely to be built into a park."

"My opinion is exactly the opposite of yours. If the Japanese government really gave up here completely, they would have already started cleaning up the ruins. After all, leaving such a scar on the edge of the palace is not a wise choice.

There is only one reason why they don't move here, and that is because they are unwilling to let this very sacred place in their minds disappear completely.

If, as you said, they are willing to build a park here, I am willing to spend a huge amount of money to donate a large public toilet to them in this park."

Fang Lang's words made John dumbfounded for a moment. You said donating a library or a statue would be fine, but you're donating a public toilet here. Isn't that a joke? As long as the Japanese are not stupid, they will never agree to such an obvious move.

Donations made with malicious intent.

However, Fang Lang's previous words did make John think deeply. Although he was just a logistics officer and could not decide the American policy in Japan, Fang Lang's words also reminded him that the Japanese may be far inferior to them.

So docile.

After thinking for a while, John looked at Fang Lang and said:

"You are right. It is not as simple as we thought for the Japanese to stay here. Maybe in their hearts, they are still unwilling to accept their failure.

I will report this situation to my superiors and see how the occupying forces headquarters considers this issue."

Hearing this, Fang Lang shook his head. He knew very well that Americans are different from their Asian counterparts. Many Europeans and Americans simply cannot understand the concept of ancestors in the Chinese cultural circle and have never had the habit of worshiping their ancestors. Therefore, they simply cannot

They will not pay attention to the special significance of this place to the Japanese.

The Americans will soon launch a peninsular war. At this time, the Americans need cheap labor from the Japanese, so they will not delve into this matter at all.

It is better to rely on Americans to solve the problem than to solve it yourself.

"It's useless. US-Japan relations are about to enter a new stage. The occupying forces will not go to war over this place at this time.

You don’t need to report it, I just have more free time these days, and I’m worried that I don’t have anything fun to do! Isn’t this just delivered to my door?”

Hearing Fang Lang's words, John was startled. He quickly reached out and grabbed Fang Lang's arm and said:

"Brother! Don't mess around!"

Seeing this, Fang Lang laughed and said:

"John, do you think I am such an ignorant person? Don't worry! I won't mess around.

By the way, is the commander of the Tokyo occupation force still Colonel Jason?"

Although Fang Lang said that he would not mess around, John couldn't believe it. You must know that the Fang Lang now is not the original Fang Lang. With Fang Lang's current status, even if he did something in Japan

Neither the Japanese government nor the U.S. government can do anything about this matter that is so outrageous and resentful.

As for the other party's sudden change of topic, he was stunned when he asked about the commander of the Tokyo occupation forces. John had heard about Colonel Jason that Fang Lang mentioned. After all, although they belonged to different military branches, they all worked in Tokyo, and occasionally

You will hear the other person's name.

"Hey! You actually know Colonel Jason, but he is no longer in Tokyo. I heard that he was discharged during the last batch of disarmament."

Hearing this, Fang Lang secretly thought it was a pity. You must know that Colonel Jason had done bad things with him. This relationship can make them cooperate more tacitly when doing certain things.

But since the other party had retired from the army, he had no choice. It wasn't that he didn't trust John, but the fact was that the other party was only an officer in the Naval Logistics Department and had no actual military power and could not exert direct influence on the American occupation forces in Tokyo.

Moreover, there were some things that Fang Lang didn't want John to be involved in. After all, if these things were discovered, they might be implicated and might affect his future.

"Is it strange that I know Colonel Jason? You must know that I led the Marine Corps under my command as the Osaka occupation force.

At that time, the commander of our Osaka occupation force, Colonel Malik, and I had a pretty good relationship, and Colonel Jason and Colonel Malik were very good friends, and we also met once."

Fang Lang smiled and explained to John. When Fang Lang said this, John was relieved. However, John did not intend to easily expose Fang Lang's statement that he wanted to find something fun to do in Tokyo.

He was not defending the Japanese or fearing that the Japanese would be harmed, but he was a little worried that Fang Lang would get into unnecessary trouble because of this matter.

"I don't care about your relationship with Colonel Jason. However, you must tell me clearly what actions you want to take against this place. We don't have to care about what the Japanese think, but the current commander-in-chief of the Japanese occupation forces is

General MacArthur.

He is not an easy person to talk to, and if you cause any mess that cannot be cleaned up, he may directly detain you."
