Izumo area, which well known as the ground of matchmaking, and the stage of the myth of kuniyuzuri (the turning over of control of the land of Japan).
The hero of this story, Shichibee Ookaji was born in 1621, where Koshi village, Kando province, Izumo (present: Koshi-cho, Izumo, Shimane), while Togugawa Shogunate was about to make a domain system.
Shichibee invested his private fortune to excavation of the Arakihama beach, the Takase river, the Sashimi river, the Jyukkenngawa river, and the improvement of the river until he finished the his whole life at the age of 69, and he gave a lot of benefit to many people since it from today.

Under the policy of Tokugawa Shogunate, which "The agriculture is the basis of country", a development of new field and water facility were also carried out in the Matsue Han (was the feudal clan at that time). Although Shichibee was a farmaer, he proposed the great concept, and tackled difficult works with clear technology and his strong leadership.
It is thought that his will that handed down from generation to generation through about 310 years, emerges in our heart brilliantly in a confused condition of present age of Japan.

The Human Nature Science Institute, which came out of the Chikaku-Juku Institute, inaugurated in 1988, has been proposing on the theme of environment, health, and peace, learning from the great achievements of the great personages, we propose the "One Village, One Aspiration Campaign" which in order to open the new way of the world from Japan and the world.
We could published the first plan in Japan that publishing the comics, juvenile literature, and novel of "Izumo Sanbeeo" which the great personage of water improvement, Yahee Sutoh (published in 1994), Tahee Kiyohara (published in 1997), and Shichibee Ookaji.

Life is infinity, living things are finite, and the great ambition will awake in people's heart beyond the time.
We hope that a new story begins in the reader who met this book, and this campaign will extend to the whole country and the world.
