The Kyoto Bubble Era: It started with selling off hundreds of millions of property - Chapter 613

c588 Offend the people you least deserve to offend

This is really a tricky thing.

Ryutaro Hashimoto knew that the housing issue would eventually come to light. Who made him the scapegoat for those big bosses back then?

In order to control his own power, he had to turn a blind eye to the actions of the officials in the Ministry of Finance in exchange for the help of the family behind them.

At that time, Ryutaro Hashimoto had no ambition to become prime minister at all. He only hoped to stay at the center of power in the prime minister’s cabinet during his prime years and pave the way for his descendants.

The Hashimoto family is still too weak to compete with the real wealthy families in Tokyo.

Once he breaks away from the center of power, the Hashimoto family with him as the backbone will definitely be driven out of Tokyo and be devoured by those wolves and tigers.

But no one thought that one day, with the help of Kitahara Sosuke, he, Hashimoto Ryutaro, would be able to ascend to the position of prime minister.

It’s better now. In the past, there were always a lot of messes on our heads anyway. It didn’t matter if there were one more or one less. They were all taking the blame anyway.

But now, as Prime Minister, these things will become fatal black spots.

It’s just that he believes that with the current power of the Hashimoto family and the Kitahara family, no one will risk offending these two families by digging up these old scores to cause trouble.

But unfortunately, there really is such a person.

“Have you checked, who is behind this? If you dare to use the housing issue as an entry point, those bastards behind the scenes really don’t hesitate to offend so many wealthy families.”

Ryutaro Hashimoto looked sullen.

Kazumi Suzuki is also very sad. The Suzuki family is also one of the beneficiaries of the housing security issue. When they were engaged in the daily housing allowance, their family made a lot of money, and now they are also listed on the review list by Congress. Coupled with her unlucky luck, After joining Hashimoto’s cabinet, this problem will also trouble her.

Therefore, as early as after receiving the reporting call, she found out the details of the supporting forces behind the reporting person.

What surprised her was that the other party seemed to have no intention of hiding his identity.

The big boss behind the whistleblower is Shigeki Sumitomo, the powerful man of the Sumitomo Foundation.

“Sumitomo Foundation, no wonder they have the confidence to dare to play such a conspiracy.” The anger rising in Ryutaro Hashimoto’s heart slowly disappeared, “Does the Congress have anything else to say, is it to speed up the resolution of the housing issue?”

“We are required to take the lead and completely separate the functions of finance and finance. The Minister of Finance and the Minister of Finance should be separated and have no overlap in their work content. The Bank of Japan should be independent. The Minister of Finance should be appointed by the Prime Minister’s Cabinet and join the Cabinet, while the Finance Minister should be appointed by the Prime Minister’s Cabinet and join the Cabinet. The ministers are not members of the cabinet, they are established separately and are elected by a vote of the National Assembly.”

Suzuki Kazumi sighed.

This is tantamount to stripping financial power away from the government in disguise. Even the prime minister and cabinet have no reason to meddle in the duties of the Bank of Japan and the Financial Services Agency. The latter are elected by the National Assembly and are naturally controlled by the most powerful financial groups at the moment.

The six major financial groups took turns taking charge, but it was not the turn of the Prime Minister and the Cabinet, nor was it his turn to be Sosuke Kitahara.

As a result, without the support of the Financial Services Agency, it will be more difficult to control the domestic economy.

With this move, Sumitomo Shigeki is preparing to completely defeat Kitahara Sosuke in the domestic financial war.

The current situation is that Japan’s financial industry is in an extremely chaotic situation. Small and medium-sized financial institutions are precarious. There is no tomorrow. Every time they go bankrupt, countless families will be broken. However, large financial institutions are supported by financial backers and cannot die for the time being. But they are also All are big problems.

Needless to say, the banking industry was in a mess after Tokyo Kyodo Bank announced its cancellation. So far, except for the banks under the six major consortiums, other banks are heavily in debt and have countless bad debts. All the money has been taken away, leaving an empty shell. , struggling to support.

But no matter how empty the market is, it is the biggest cake in Japan besides real estate. Everyone among the six major consortiums wants to eat it, and they are all waiting to take their bite.

“If we hand over the power of the Financial Services Agency, it means that we will not be able to control the Bank of Japan and the financial industry in the future. This is equivalent to exposing the national treasury to those businessmen.” Suzuki Kazumi’s position is still on the side of politicians. She told Sumitomo Shigeru Shu was very dissatisfied with the approach of a pure businessman.

Businessmen harm the country.

If the national treasury is controlled by their consortium, without economic support, the Prime Minister, Cabinet and Congress will just laugh. Who has money, who has power, and who has big fists. In this way, what is the difference between South Korea and South Korea next door?

Their consortium has completely monopolized the market, and the government is in name only.

The prime minister is just a watchdog of the consortium. He has even introduced some amnesty law. As long as he makes a certain contribution to society, he can cancel any crime and be acquitted.

Absolutely ridiculous!

“This is about killing people. What’s going on at the Financial Services Agency now?” Ryutaro Hashimoto didn’t expect that Sumitomo Shigeki would immediately use a big move as soon as he made a move.

Before he can secure his position and his foundation is not deep enough, directly shake his position.

So cruel!

This young man does not care about the life and death of the people at all.

As long as he can overthrow himself, defeat Kitahara Sosuke, and seize the treasury, he will dare to do anything!

If he doesn’t handle it well, and now he steps down, and the prime ministers change one after another, the government’s credibility will eventually be lost.

Then it will really be the same as next door. In the future, it will depend on the face of the consortium.

“It’s very bad. Prosecutors from the three major prosecutors were dispatched at the same time to conduct a sweep of the Financial Services Department. As you know, the Financial Services Department turned out to be your base camp, and it was filled with your subordinates. It has nothing to do with housing issues. There will be no connection.”

One caught will die.

Nearly 90% of the prosecutors and officials in the Financial Services Agency have been jailed.

The National Assembly, together with the District Attorney, the Sumitomo Foundation, and other consortiums that are eyeing them, are going to attack them by rebuilding the Financial Services Agency as the first step.

“Is there a list of prisoners? Give me one.” Ryutaro Hashimoto thought of a name and immediately asked her for the list.

“It just so happened that I got the latest list of Tokyo Prison through trust.” Kazumi Suzuki was a classmate of the new warden of Tokyo Prison and got a top-secret list from him.

This time, a large number of officials from the Financial Services Department were imprisoned. In order to prevent internal liaisons, they were detained separately in prisons across the country. Their lists were not released to the public to prevent anyone from contacting and rescuing them privately.

The Tokyo Prison was formerly the territory of Hisashi Yamashita. After the last incident, Hisashi Yamashita and his daughter Tamako Yamashita went to the Miyagi Prefecture Prison.

Ryutaro Hashimoto glanced at the list and his heart skipped a beat.

I saw the name I least wanted to see——

Norika Fujiwara.

Last night, she also attended the annual meeting as one of the largest directors of the Kitahara Foundation. Kitahara Sosuke made her public to let the world know that he cares about her.

And this was precisely the reason for the district attorney’s inspection of Fujiwara Norika.

She was secretly captured and imprisoned in Tokyo Prison.

Now, something big is going to happen!

That guy Sosuke Kitahara

“Prime Minister, what do you think?”

“Residence center? Why stay in a college? Hurry, prepare the car, we are going to Tokyo Prison now! Now!”

“Eh? Go now? Do you have anyone important there?” Suzuki Kazumi was startled by his sudden excitement.

Ryutaro Hashimoto had no time to explain. He hurried out of the office and ran towards the garage without even changing his clothes.

Kazumi Suzuki immediately called the driver team.

Target, Tokyo Prison!

She didn’t understand why the Prime Minister was in such a hurry. Could someone still rob the prison?

In this place in Tokyo?
