Reborn In the Tokyo Bubble Era - Chapter 526

   Chapter 526 What is the richest goddess who should bow their heads

In the days when Banzawa Kazuki had to run wildly every day to fall asleep, and every waking moment had to suppress himself and continue to check the scale of risky debts in the financial system, the real estate price of Neon was like the stock market at the beginning, and it was going down every day. Walk.

   And it is the stock market plus the property market, a double blow.

   At this time, a middle-aged man just got off the tram and stood on the platform in a daze.

  After leaving home in the morning, he had been sitting aimlessly on the train, making several laps around Tokyo, one stop after another.

   It’s been nearly two months since days like this.

   As usual, I said goodbye to my wife and children and went to work, but I dared not tell them that the club had gone bankrupt in early March.

   He has been looking for a job for more than a month, but the recruitment season has passed, and now the situation is severe, almost all clubs are starting to be conservative.

   Even if there is a job that needs to be recruited, it is better to ask the existing members to work overtime to complete the work.

  What kind of weekends… In good times, the club’s business is good, so let’s take weekends off.

   Now the situation is tense, and the business volume of various clubs has shrunk. Bonuses, commissions… These things are decreasing, and there are fewer ignorant people after all.

   The number of bankrupt clubs is increasing, and the number of clubs that have to dismiss some members is also increasing. Under such a sense of crisis, many people are trying their best to keep their jobs.

  What is overtime?

  This middle-aged man who was in a daze on the platform also thought so, if there is still a chance now, he is also willing to work overtime.

   “…All guests, all guests, go to…” On the platform, another tram was preparing to enter the station, and the announcement sounded.

  The middle-aged man looked up at the tram coming in the distance, and there was an urge to jump in front of it in a trance.

   “…No, no…” He muttered to himself, and walked towards the exit in despair.

   Staggering down the underground passage, he saw the sign of the public toilet and stepped up to walk over.

   After he hid in a toilet seat and closed the door, he held his bag in one hand and tightly covered his mouth with the other. He cried silently in fear and unable to hold back his sadness.

  What should I do? How can I keep the house I just lived in for more than two years?

  How can we maintain such a happy life now?

   After coming out of the toilet, he kept his head down and got on the train to Osaki again.

  In any case, there must be income first.

   “…Excuse me.” When he arrived at the largest construction site in Osaki, he bowed and said hello, “Well, may I ask if there is still a shortage of construction workers…”

   Looking at the middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes and carrying a briefcase, the construction supervisor at the site said politely, “I’m really sorry, we have a special dispatch company to cooperate.”

“…Any job is fine, please!” He bowed deeply, and took out his full-filled resume from his briefcase, “Whether it’s carrying heavy objects, or other work… “

   “Adachi…san, you used to be an investment advisor, and what we need here is really…”

   “Please!” He couldn’t help but grabbed the hand of the construction manager with a lot of strength, “Please! I can do anything, I have strength!”

   Soon after, the former investment adviser surnamed Adachi took off his suit, put his briefcase in the locker, and changed into his work clothes.

   After walking out of the simple temporary room, the dusty and noisy construction site was in front of him.

   “If you can’t get used to it, bring it up in time, don’t force it.”

   “It’s okay! I…it’s okay.”

   In any case, you have to get through it first, and at the same time find more friends to see if there are jobs with higher income.

  …

  Model Hiroshi Abe began to feel a little different, and sitting in the apartment, he picked up the phone again.

“Good morning, Takita-san. It’s me, Hiroshi Abe.” He had a heavy expression just now, with a humble smile on his face, as if he was in front of the man named Takita, who nodded frequently, “This year’s summer clothes should be Is it released? I’m ready! Please continue to take care of me.”

   After he finished speaking, he reached out and grabbed his hair, scratching it uneasily, listening to the response from the other side and still nodding his head: “Yes… Is that so? Takita is Sang, are you busy with work today? Tonight…”

   “…Well, then don’t bother…”

  Abe put down the phone angrily. This time, he patted his head vigorously with both hands. After suppressing it, he lifted it up and threw it to the sky, as if to throw out some invisible trouble.

   In the past few years, because of his tall stature and angular face, he has been earning a lot of money as a model because of the prosperous luxury market.

   But it has been more than a month in a row, and many brands that have collaborated in the past have scaled back their plans. Even if we can continue to cooperate, the pay is… a lot lower.

   On the TV, the announcer’s voice was as calm as ever, firmly digging into his ears.

   “Suzuki Shunji-san, who was re-elected as governor of Tokyo, went to Osaki yesterday to negotiate with the residents’ representatives on the check-out of Osaki New Town…”

  Abe Hiroshi raised his head and looked at the TV, which was the scene of the live meeting.

   “…Subscription is also a kind of agreement. If a decision is made, it would be really troublesome to break the agreement now. Everyone, the construction here has been going on, so be patient…”

   In the face of Suzuki Shunji’s consolation, the buyers did not buy it at all. Although the expression is very polite and the tone is not angry, there is still a strong complaint: “But the method of pre-sale should not have appeared in the first place. Even if the house can be delivered to us a year later, then it will be a What’s the actual price? It’s unreasonable…”

   Tsutsumi Yoshiaki at the venue pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.

   Unreasonable, your uncle!

  If house prices are rising, wouldn’t you all be happy? Now that it is starting to fall, I will make trouble and say it is unreasonable!

  Abe Hiroshi listened to the noise on the TV, and his heart sank.

   He didn’t think about cancelling the house he subscribed for, but then he suddenly remembered that he had also bought three apartments in Osaki New Town.

  If there are fewer and fewer job opportunities in the future, and the pay is getting lower and lower, the monthly mortgage loan you need to bear…

  Tooth defeat!

  …

   Tsutsumi Yoshiaki can do his best to solve the financial problem and do his best to speed up the progress of the project, but he can’t hold back the panic caused by the collapse of the entire market, and the requirements of these “customers”.

  As long as he wants to sell the house, he must give feedback on the client’s request.

   After experiencing the coordination meeting that Shunji Suzuki personally participated in today, Tsutsumi Yoshiaki was not happy because the issue was temporarily postponed, but sat in the office a little numbly.

   No matter how fast the project progresses, it is impossible to sell the house smoothly.

   The downtrend has been formed, and everyone can wait until the house is fully built and then buy it at a lower price.

   The second-hand housing market has also suddenly become hot.

   Every day new houses are put up by brokers. Every day, the original total price is wiped out and replaced with a new, lower price.

  How did things come to this point?

  Yes, after Tao Dalang was attacked by Iwasaki Ryunosuke, the progress of Tsutsumi Yoshiaki’s side began to slow down.

During    there was also the war between Ike and Kurt, and then the war at the beginning of the year.

   He sat in the office for a while, then got up and walked out.

   Something has to be done. If it is already cold winter, then we have to reserve more food and grass.

   Now there is no return on investment.

   Must meet Tao Dalang!

   Unlike Tsutsumi Yoshiaki’s situation, Tao Zhiming and Kinoshita Xiufeng were busy with the official completion and delivery of the Gate of Heaven.

   What is even more different from him is that the buyer of the gate of heaven has already paid in full before.

  Things are rare and expensive, and buyers are not short of money.

   But at this moment, the gate of heaven is also not as valuable as it used to be because of the drop in real estate prices.

  Based on the base price of the Gate of Heaven, the slightest fluctuation is in millions of yen.

  So similar to Tsutsumi Yoshiaki’s side, some customers who came to receive this real estate also expressed concerns.

   They are not like Osaki Xincheng’s customers, and Tao Zhiming is not comparable to Tsui Yoshiaki.

   So I was just worried: “President Tao… Kinoshita-san, if the price of real estate continues to fall…”

Tao Zhiming saw Ti Yiming, just smiled and nodded, and then said to the “local tyrant” carelessly: “Actually, the gate of heaven has the smallest decline right now, you all made the most correct choice, right? ?”

   This is the truth, and these people cannot refute it for a while.

   But after all, he lost real money.

Tao Zhiming began to worry: “President Di is here, his Osaki New Town project, and Brother Xiufeng also participated in the investment. Now it seems that that part of the money will cause a lot of losses. This is a big environmental zone. There is no choice but to come, and everyone has no choice. Now that the real estate has been completely handed over to you, if you want to dispose of it, it is entirely up to your heart. But we hope that we can make up for these losses, is it unreasonable? “

The higher the status, the more willing to fight and suffer.

   It doesn’t make any sense to tear it apart.

   Tsui Yoshiaki is a little envious of his project, the money is made, and the follow-up troubles can be easily passed.

   Waiting for these people to be dismissed, Tao Zhiming looked at Ti Yiming: “The news, I also heard about it.”

Ti Yiming stared at him for a while. I am afraid that the previous words were meant to be told to himself, so Ti Yiming asked directly: “President Tao, there is only one way now. Do you have any idea of ​​taking over the Osaki New Town project? “

Tao Zhiming was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud: “Tisang, my yacht home port has not been fully completed! Besides, even if I have a little special influence and expand my shares in the Osaki New Town project, I can’t resist real estate. The price is going down.”

   Tsutsumi Yoshiaki was silent.

“Tisang, have I been doing my best to help you for so long?” Tao Zhiming asked in return, “The financing introduced by Changxin Bank, First Quanye Bank and other channels will ensure the raw material needs of the project through various channels. , Now… I can only do this.”

   After a long time, Ti Yiming said slowly: “Remember that three years ago, you told me that my Osaki Xincheng, your gate to the kingdom of heaven, must be completed within three years. Otherwise, it will be forever.”

   Kinoshita Xiufeng was shocked: Three years have passed, three years… Is the timing so accurate?

Tao Zhiming seemed to sigh for him, and then said: “Tisang, when you started construction, it was too late. The composition of the development complex is too complicated. Only me and brother Xiufeng invested in the gate of heaven. The relationship with the Kaguracho project as a whole is clear.”

   Tsui Yoshiaki seems to have no longer bothered with these reasons, and just asked: “So, is it about to end? Me?”

His eyes were sharp, and Tao Zhiming looked at each other calmly: “We all have to wait for this drop to reach the bottom and wait until the situation picks up. Tisang, now we have to make every effort to ensure that our respective industries can run healthily, and there can be no arbitrariness. What! Leaks! Holes!”

   Tsutsumi Yoshiaki nodded indifferently: “I understand.”

  Since he feels that the decline has not yet reached the bottom, it is probably not necessary to sell real estate such as Nanura Bay in Hokkaido to him.

   Put forward, is it appropriate at the current price, or do you want to give up more?

Tsutsumi Yoshiaki stood up and asked again before going out: “For projects like Kagura Town, the current trend is clear. In order to optimize the national railway debt borne by the liquidation team, it was agreed that development could be carried out first, and several years would be required. The land will then be sold at the value after development. In theory, it is good, of course the developed land will appreciate in value. But now, and in the future… How will public opinion view this matter?”

   He said with his back to the two of them, and Tao Zhiming only replied lightly: “There has been a war that changed the world, and the changes of the times are always unpredictable. This is reality and life.”

   “Well said!” Tei Yoshiaki said again, then turned sideways and nodded, “Excuse me.”

   After he left, Kinoshita Xiufeng whispered, “Is this… a showdown, a fallout?”

   “What’s the show?” Tao Zhiming smiled indifferently, “I already reminded him, within three years. If he didn’t do it, how could he blame me?”

   “…If I stand on his side, I already feel sad.”

  Tao Zhiming rolled his eyes: “The guy who has already made money in his pocket, don’t pretend to be sad for others.”

   After he finished speaking, he stood up: “Let’s go, go to the gate of heaven, there is another person who also came to find me on the grounds of receiving real estate.”

  …

   The gates of heaven are fully completed.

  The scenery of Tokyo Bay is still the same, and the “mood pressure” in the port area is low, but after all, spring is the time when “everything is in competition and full of vitality”.

  Tao Zhiming and Kinoshita Xiufeng came to the downstairs of the Gate of Heaven together, looking up quite proudly.

   “Brother Xiufeng, you have left a name in history.” Tao Zhiming teased.

   Kinoshita Xiufeng looked at this huge “steel torii” and nodded with emotion.

   It’s just that on the day this “Gate of Heaven” was officially completed, the neon economy was already mourning.

   When I introduced this project to Taro Hashimoto and the others that day, what Tao Zhiming said came to Kinoshita Hidefeng’s mind again.

“…Dark clouds and storms are sweeping over the sky and obscuring the sun. Although we are not eight million gods, we can be sumo wrestlers! This is the gate to heaven that will allow Neon to survive the crisis and see a bright future, isn’t it? A good moral?”

   Today, Tsutsumi Yoshiaki also has many speculative upstarts who invest in finance and real estate, and they have indeed become sacrifices that were shelved on this torii.

  The Gate of Heaven has two column-shaped towers. Tao Zhiming and Kinoshita Xiufeng walked, which is the one near the south side.

   But regardless of the south side or the north side, the three floors at the bottom were taken down by Iwasaki Ryusuke to run the business of high-end brands.

  Tao Zhiming met Iwasaki Yokohisa downstairs.

   Seeing him, Iwasaki Yokohisa bent down: “President Tao, Kinoshita-san.”

   “Iwasaki-kun.” Tao Zhiming shouted with a smile, “When will it officially open? I heard that a great cafe has been brought in.”

   Originally Yamane-kun, but now Iwasaki-kun.

  Iwasaki Yokohisa said politely: “It will probably officially start business at the end of June. At that time, I will definitely ask President Tao and Kinoshita-san to take care of it.”

   “Don’t be so unfamiliar, come and sit upstairs when you have time.” Tao Zhiming patted his shoulder and walked towards the elevator.

   After entering the elevator, he sighed with emotion: “After all, I can’t get along with the friendship of my classmates. It’s really a bit embarrassing.”

   “…If you stand in his position, it is very sad and angry!”

   “That’s why I said it, don’t pretend to be sad for others!”

Kinoshita Xiufeng shook his head and looked outside the elevator, where the sight-seeing elevator could be seen. The Binli Palace Garden was full of greenery, and the Tao Ran on the yacht’s home port was faintly visible in the distance, so he no longer pretended to be sad, and he was in a great mood. .

  The elevator goes directly to the villa floor that Tao Zhiming reserved for him. His high-altitude flat-story villa occupies a very precise 666.66 square meters, which is a little obsessive-compulsive disorder and a good moral.

  This villa was privately named “Zhenyingju” by him, and it was naturally finished in the final decoration stage.

  Only the location of his residence in the town allows you to see a wide field of vision on three sides. You can see Tokyo Bay to the east, Shinagawa Wharf to the south, and Shiba Park and Tokyo Tower to the west.

   After entering the door, the three young girls in maid costumes bowed in unison: “Welcome home, Master Tao.”

   Kinoshita Xiufeng glanced at it, not the three Xishui sisters, but the three they had never seen before.

   So he asked: “Shana will live here? Is this a person trained by Qingtian-san?”

   “She hasn’t come over yet, so she’s a little deserted. At most, Shana can accept Chiyo to live with him. In this case, there will only be five adults and Tao Mingzhi in the room.”

   Kinoshita Xiufeng can only raise his thumbs speechlessly, can Ueda Xana accept living with that lively and lovely Nagumo Chiyo?

   It’s just that Kinoshita Xiufeng guessed wrong. These three maids were not trained by Qingtian Yongchen in Kansai, but the professional service team that Irie Yuta BravoAir constantly recruited and trained for the safety of private jets and yachts.

   These three have more or less the background of the Inagawa Society.

  yakuza is a high-risk occupation, and there will inevitably be some widows and orphans left behind.

   “Let’s sunbathe next to the indoor swimming pool.” Tao Zhiming and Kinoshita Xiufeng visited the town and walked to the indoor swimming pool fitness area to the east.

   “Prepare coffee and snacks.” Toshio Ogata instructed the maids behind him.

   “Yes…” Actually, there was no need to tell me, a girl went to the kitchen.

   After a while, the doorbell rang, Ogata Toshio went over to open the door, and the one who was invited in was the tail seam.

   Entering this high-altitude mansion full of luxury and class, the preoccupied tail seam is more restrained.

The person    saw was Tao Zhiming, and she was even more uneasy.

   Kinoshita Xiufeng was present, and she didn’t dare to say anything rashly.

   So Kinoshita Xiufeng simply stood up: “After the visit, I will go to receive other customers.”

   At this time, the maid also came over with a tray.

   Slowly knelt down and sat down, she put the coffee and snacks on the chair, and said softly: “Please take it slow…”

   “It’s hard work.” Tao Zhiming smiled at her, “Your name is Shikano Maki?”

   “…Yes, Mr. Tao.” Luye Maki blushed slightly, holding the tray in front of him and bending over, “If you need anything, please let me know.”

  Tao Zhiming smiled and nodded: “Go and rest first, Madam Ogami and I have something to talk about.”

   “Maki retire…”

  The upper seam of the tail saw this scene in his eyes. This handsome and confident young man has the charm to make any woman’s heart move, let alone the maid in his family?

   She lowered her head in a trance, what time is it now, how can she think about these things?

   “Then, you specifically said you want to meet me, what’s the matter? Madam Ogami.” Tao Zhiming picked up the coffee and took a slow sip.

  The taste is very good. The three maids in this room are all carefully selected to be recognized by Irijiang Xiongtai and arranged here.

Wei Shangjian had no intention of drinking coffee, and after hesitating, he gritted his teeth, left his seat, and knelt directly on the floor of the lounge area next to the indoor swimming pool: “President Tao, for the sake of the pleasant cooperation in the past, please, help me!”

  Tao Zhiming didn’t expect her to come out like this, so he slowly put down the cup: “Madam Ogami, what are you doing? Let’s sit down and talk.”

   As expected of a woman who can play more than 2 trillion yen, she is already very clear about the current situation.

After the seam on the tail went straight, he let go of his courage, took a sip of coffee to cover up his inner misery, then lowered his head and said, “Although they all said that this time is just an annual inspection, because of the drop in real estate prices, I can no longer maintain the current situation. Last year, I lost a lot of money in the stock market, and I took it out and injected it into the real estate market. Now I have encountered the current situation. I need nearly 200 million yen in interest every day. President Tao, I think of you before. I have talked to you, so I can’t help it, I must come and ask you.”

“Things are not that bad,” Tao Zhiming said calmly. “The people you asked are right. Now it’s just to find out how big the risky debt is in the national financial system. The current situation, the cabinet and the central bank Nor can we act rashly regardless of the consequences.”

  The upper seam on the tail was silent, obviously not convinced.

  Tao Zhiming asked curiously: “Mrs Ogami, you got 800 billion yen at the beginning of last year, and you should get it later and this year? Isn’t it impossible to deal with short-term debt repayments now?”

Ogami’s eyes dimmed: “Now in Kansai, you must know the war between the Yamaguchi-gumi and the Inagawa Society. Before, the Renhe Credit established by the Yamaguchi-gumi took away all 19.3 billion yen. I have it in hand. I don’t have a lot of cash left, it’s going to be June soon, I…”

   “Your situation, the bank that lends you the money won’t sit idly by, right? Isn’t it possible to defer repayment?”

  Osami said bitterly: “It is said that this is the way…for the time being, it has been requested by the Ministry of Tibet and Neon Bank to stop, otherwise it will start to rectify immediately.”

   “Then how much money do you need for June?”

  The upper seam opened his mouth and said with difficulty: “There are exactly two principals due, including the interest, a total of 136.4 billion yen.”

   “…So much in one breath?” Tao Zhiming pretended to be shocked, “Madam Ogami…how much did you borrow in total?”

   “Anyway… President Tao, if there is a way, please help me!” Osamasu lowered his head deeply again.

   When she raised her head, she saw Tao Zhiming was drinking coffee solemnly, brows furrowed.

She waited expectantly for a response, but only heard him say, “I can help you this time, but I can’t solve the problem. Madam Ongami, besides, I have helped you make so much money in the past, and I have also shown you the way out. Now, You should be thinking about how to prepare for the worst. All I can promise you is the trust asset that I promised you.”

  The upper seam looked at him unwillingly.

Tao Zhiming reminded her calmly: “That part is also a trust asset of 100 billion yen. Madam Ogami, with your ability, you can keep such an asset in the end, aren’t you satisfied? , how can I help you?”

  The tail looked at him for a long time before lowering his head sadly: “I understand… Anyway, thank you President Tao for your care…”

   Tao Zhiming watched her farewell and leave indifferently.

  Whether it was her or Ti Yoshiaki, facing the current situation, even if he felt unwilling to Tao Zhiming in his heart, he was powerless to do anything.

  Tao Zhiming stood up and moved his body, looking down at Tokyo from the window.

   The person who fell into the abyss in this collapse, facing the aloof Tao Zhiming, what can he do?

   No matter the richest man or the goddess, at this time, you can only lower your posture and ask the true God.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Tao, it’s noon… ah!” Seeing Shikano Maki, who had left the seam on the tail, just came over to pack up, and asked Tao Zhiming if he was eating here at noon, he saw him taking off his clothes and jumping in The back view of the pool.

   Looking at his undulating figure and strong back muscles in the pool, Shikano Maki stood on the spot and his heart beat faster.

   Mrs. Xiong said… Said that when Mr. Tao was swimming, in order to prevent accidents, someone should be by your side… to take care of…
