Prologue: Mitsui and the Philosophy of Production

1. Mitsui: three wells, three waters

The name Mitsui is not merely a symbol of commercial activity, but of the fundamental human capacity to live. The "three" elements that make up Mitsui - "clothing," "food," and "dwellings" - are the most basic necessities for human survival, indicating that human life is possible only when they are in harmony. The "three" is the number "three. Furthermore, the number "three" is deeply related to the three waters, the source of life.
• Mitsui = three waters
The "three wells" refer to the three sources from which water can be drawn from a well. This water is the source of life and is of utmost importance to man. Without water, all of our food, clothing, and dwellings would not be possible. Therefore, the name Mitsui symbolizes more than mere commerce and trade; it symbolizes an indispensable element that supports the foundation of life.
• Importance of water: essential for survival
Water is essential for life. It is needed for drinking, for growing food, for washing clothes, for keeping dwellings clean, and for supporting industry. The "three waters" symbolized by Mitsui are the very foundation of human food, clothing, and dwellings, and exist as the starting point for economic activity and business transactions.
• Mitsui = food, clothing and dwellings
The "three waters" indicated by Mitsui mean the three most basic elements necessary for human life - clothing, food, and dwellings. All of these play an important role in sustaining life, and Mitsui's presence provides the resources necessary for people to live their lives. Mitsui exists to support these "food, clothing, and dwellings" and plays a role in the constant circulation of these in its commercial activities.

2. Bussan: Producing things is the starting point of survival

The meaning of the word "product" is not merely the generation of property or a part of economic activity, but is an important concept that is more deeply related to the fundamentals of human existence. People live not only by obtaining money through economic activities, but also by producing goods. The essence of material goods is directly related to human survival.
• Producing things is the basis of living.
Producing things does not simply mean commercial transactions or wealth creation; it is the "production" of things. Producing the things that people need to live their daily lives, such as clothing, food, and dwellings, is an essential act for their survival, and commercial and economic activities exist as a result of this act. The act of producing things is more than the pursuit of material wealth; it is an act directly related to the maintenance of life, which is the very core of the original "living.
• The essence of economic activity and business
The essential meaning of material production is not merely the pursuit of monetary gain or commercial profit. It is rooted in the basic human act of "producing things," and economic activity itself functions to support people's lives and build a prosperous society. The role of business and commerce is not only to distribute goods and create wealth, but also to provide the foundation necessary to support people's lives.

3. Synergies between Mitsui and Bussan

The meaning of Mitsui and Bussan goes beyond mere economic activities and plays an important role in supporting the foundation for survival in society as a whole. The "three waters" symbolized by Mitsui's philosophy are the lifeblood for the production and distribution of goods, and Bussan plays a role in making society viable by producing and distributing the goods that form its foundation.
• Mitsui and Bussan in harmony
While Mitsui stands for "three waters" and the role it plays in supporting food, clothing, and dwellings, Bussan is the fundamental force that produces them. The two are closely interrelated and complement each other by providing the goods and services that people need to survive in society. This harmony is the major force behind the stability and development of society.

4. Saving Japan

Mitsui has been engaged in various conspiracies to protect the dignity of the Japanese people. One of these conspiracies is the Zipangcoin. By using blockchain to circulate Zipangecoin throughout the world, they are planning to form a unique gold convertible currency, a currency that will surpass USDT, that is Tether, in the world. Mitsui is trying to save Japan from the economic domination by the U.S. and China by making Zipangecoin the world's dominant currency in its scheme.
