When Wan Guohou and Yu Jingbo's car drove downstairs to the "Songzhili", the sky was slightly dark, and it was evening.

T3 went around to the right, opened the rear door, and the moon gargled down. She was wearing a pale green silk embroidered cheongsam, embroidered with blue clouds and yellow leaves, which was quite a bit bright and sunny in autumn. Wan Guohou, who got off the bus later, was wearing a dark blue suit and a dark green tie. The two of them complement each other perfectly, and at first glance, there is a bit of a couple's outfit.

"Master Hou, does Manager Yue have any sisters?" Yu Jingbo handed over the car key to the parking brother and said to Wan Guohou with a smile.

"As far as I know, no. Wan Guohou smiled slightly, "What's wrong?"

"It's a shame. Yu Jingbo pretended to sigh exaggeratedly, "Otherwise, I also want to hire a female secretary, and it would be too face-saving to bring it out." ”

Yue Shuluo smiled, "Dean Yu really likes to joke, and Dr. Sui has a lot of temperament." ”

This sentence was said by her, and the flattery was just right, and at the same time it did not damage the face of Wan Guohou.

Wan Guohou glanced at her with a smile and took her hand, "Go in, Mr. Gao is probably impatient to wait." ”

The counselor led a few people upstairs. Wan Guohou looked at the empty hall, and secretly felt funny in his heart: Gao Jin didn't even do business for this dinner.

At the end of the hall, there is a newly built stage. The background wall is decorated with bamboo chips, as well as reliefs of pine leaves, cherry blossoms, and snow-capped mountains in the style of Toei.

"Is it just a few of us eating, or are we here too early?" asked Yueshuluo.

Before Yu Jingbo could answer, a loud voice sounded from the other end of the stage.

"Master Hou!" Gao Jin, who was wearing a Hawaiian cashew flower shirt, strode over. He smiled and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Wan Guohou, who only nodded politely and reservedly. This inconspicuous coldness made Gao Jin a little embarrassed, he retracted his hand and laughed dryly, "The head of the moon is also here." ”

"Mr. Yue, this is back to his parents' house, right?" Yu Jingbo joked.

Yue Shuluo's eyes rolled, "Dean Yu, I'm not married yet." She had a smile on her face, as if she had never been unpleasant in Matsunosato.

"Haha, just kidding. Yu Jingbo hurriedly changed his words. He is now begging Wanguohou everywhere, and he naturally has to coax Wanguohou's woman well.

"Please. Gao Jin made a gesture. The four of them knelt down on the mat side by side, Gao Jin was on the far left, followed by Yue Shuluo, Wan Guohou, and Yu Jingbo.

"Master Hou, are you used to eating Japanese food?" Gao Jin asked, "What taboos do you have?"

"Nope. Wan Guohou replied with a smile, "I am more interested in the performance on this stage today." ”

"Master Hou, the shop is preparing a kabuki performance, which is purely Japanese, and it may not be as lively and noisy as the performances you have seen before. Gao Jin said.

"I saw a performance at the old Kinpira Daishiba Residence in front of the Golden Sword Hira Palace. Wan Guohou smiled slightly, "It is said that it was built in 1822. ”

"Then you're a connoisseur. Gao Jin was in awe, "There is the oldest surviving Kabuki seat." ”

After a few more conversations, a young woman in a beige kimono served the food, and at the same time, the band took the stage.

The band knelt on the left side of the stage and began to play snare drums and shamisen. Oh, the beat sounded, and the kabuki, who was extremely gorgeously dressed, took the stage.

"What kind of repertoire is being performed today?" Wan Guohou asked.

"Kana Temoto Tadashi Collection. Gao Jin replied.

"Mr. Gao, you can introduce it to everyone, otherwise you won't be able to understand it. Yu Jingbo said with a smile, and at the same time cast a courteous glance at Wan Guohou.

Wan Guohou felt a wave of disgust in his heart, but in the end he just nodded faintly.

"This story originates from the Ako Righteous Warrior incident in ancient Neon Country, so it is adapted from a true story. It is said that at that time, there was a traitor named Kira, who designed to kill Asano because he did not receive a bribe from Asano. This Asano had no heirs, and as soon as he died, the territory was taken back by the Imperial Family. Later, Asano's retainers, led by the governor, gathered forty-seven volunteers, stormed Kira's house, and killed him. And after taking revenge, these people all committed suicide by caesarean section. ”

"What a tragic story. Wan Guohou sighed lightly, "Emphasizing righteousness over profit, but unfortunately not having a good end." ”

Yu Jingbo frowned, "When eating, wouldn't it be weird to watch this kind of performance?"

"Of course not. Wan Guohou looked at him amusedly, "Tragedy is also a kind of beauty, and it is often more direct to the heart than the beauty of comedy." ”

Yu Jingbo let out an "oh", obviously not listening. "By the way, didn't Mr. Gao say that this drama is called 'Kana Handimoto Zhongchen Zang'? In the story introduced by Mr. Gao just now, there is no person called 'Zang'?"

The other three all laughed, and Wan Guohou explained: "Kabuki's script is exquisite, and the characters in the play cannot have the same name as historical figures. As a result, the playwright changed the time in which the story took place, and accordingly, the names of the characters. In addition, the Japanese kana has 47 letters, which here refer to the 47 retainers, the word "handbook" means role model, and "Kura" refers to the storehouse. Therefore, "Kana Temoto Tadashi Collection" is to tell the story of forty-seven 'exemplary retainers'. ”

"Master Hou knows a lot. Gao Jin said admiringly, "I don't know much about these things. He looked at Wan Guohou, "You should know Japanese too, right?"

"It's ok. Wan Guohou said modestly. Then, he took the initiative to ask, "Mr. Gao's Japanese should be good, right, the chefs you hired in this store must have been found from the neon country?"

"Actually, I'm just half a bottle of water. Gao Jin smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't do catering before, but after I came to the magic capital in 2011, it was a coincidence, I seized an opportunity and started catering." I learned Japanese slowly after I opened the store. He saw that Wan Guohou was listening carefully, so he continued, "I've been studying for 4 years, and until now, I still can't tell the difference between ら行 and な行." ”

Wan Guohou smiled, "Just don't delay your daily communication." ”

Yu Jingbo was not interested in this conversation, and after eating two bites of tuna, he forcibly changed the subject. "Mr. Gao, today, Master Hou has good news for you. ”

Gao Jin rolled his unresponsive eyes, "What's the good news?"

"Hou Ye plans to build a good family foundation and contribute this amount. Yu Jingbo gestured three fingers.

"Really?" Gao Jin said in surprise, "Master Hou is really generous!" he laughed heartily, "This is really good news." ”

"Don't you even ask me what this three means?" Yu Jingbo pushed his glasses.

Gao Jin hesitated for a moment, he felt that it was not polite to talk about the amount of his capital in front of Wan Guohou, but seeing that Yu Jingbo was really overjoyed, he was not happy. So, he pretended to be stunned, "Thirty million?" He estimated in his heart that Wan Guohou would probably come up with this number.

"Three hundred million!" Yu Jingbo laughed. Laughter seemed to fly out of his chest, drawing sideways glances from several musicians.

"Shhhh Wan Guohou made a gesture of silence.

Only then did Yu Jingbo realize that he was a little out of shape, and he lowered his voice a little, "Mr. Gao, you guessed wrong." ”

Gao Jin looked at Wan Guohou in shock, and he realized that the latter was even richer than he had imagined. "Master Hou, with your joining, the prospects of the good family are immeasurable. He grinned, "The time is right, we have all the people." ”

"Don't get too happy just yet. Wan Guohou said calmly, "We haven't negotiated the details yet. ”

"Now the stake is like this, my wife and I have 48 percent, Gao always 27 percent, and Savoga 25. Yu Jingbo said thoughtfully, "We can convert the funds you invested into the proportion of shares according to the capital you invested, and calculate dividends for you." ”

"I'll talk about the dividends later. Let me start by saying that I don't have a stake. Wan Guohou said suddenly.

He looked at the two men's shocked expressions and laughed, "What I mean by not investing in shares is that I don't be a nominal shareholder, but I have contributed capital after all, so I want more actual profits." In addition to that, you have to give me a guarantee. ”

Gao Jin's brain turned quickly, and he immediately understood what Wan Guohou meant, "You want collateral?"

Yu Jingbo still looked confused, "Mortgage? I'm not borrowing money......

"Xiao Yu. Gao Jin stopped him, "Listen to Master Hou first." ”

Wan Guohou took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his clean mouth, "If Dean Yu takes out a loan from the bank, will the bank not want collateral?" He looked at the stunned Yu Jingbo, "I don't need you to pay it back, but you must at least provide me with something that can be used as collateral." ”

"This ......" Yu Jingbo looked at Gao Jin in embarrassment.

"Don't blame me for speaking badly. Wan Guohou sneered, "I am an Englishman, in your land, and I know nothing about your investment policy. If you want to play a little trick, I won't be able to handle it. It is not uncommon throughout the ages to borrow but not repay. I asked for a collateral, but I didn't ask you to mortgage it to me right now. Right?"

For a while, the atmosphere became a little delicate, and on the stage, the shamisen was noisy and eager.

"Master Hou is right. Gao Jin suddenly smiled, "When I didn't make a fortune before, I bought wine on credit, and the store had to keep an account for me." As he spoke, he looked at Yu Jingbo, "Xiao Yu, haven't you turned your mind yet?"

Yu Jingbo heard Gao Jin say this, knowing that the other party was helping him build steps, he quickly put on a smiling face, "I don't know what Master Hou likes?"

"It doesn't matter what I like. Wan Guohou said with a smile, "The key is what equivalent you have that is worth 300 million." ”

Yu Jingbo thought about it for a while, and said stubbornly, "Is the good family's house okay?"

"Is there a good family?" Wan Guohou said lazily, "Those houses seem to be quite old." ”

"What does Dean Yu mean, probably the second phase of the good family?" Yue Shuluo glanced at Yu Jingbo and said deliberately, "But I seem to have heard Doctor Sui say that those houses haven't been built yet." ”

Seeing that the 300 million in his hand was about to fly, Yu Jingbo gritted his teeth, "Master Hou, my family, you have also been there, there was an intermediary company to help me with the valuation before, plus the decoration and garden, it will not be less than 60 million." ”

"Well, that villa is really good. Wan Guohou stroked his beard, "I think, I understand what you mean." Your villa and the house of the first phase of the good family, together, are used as collateral, right?"

"Is this enough?" asked Yue Shuluo innocently.

Yu Jingbo glanced at her hatefully, "If it's not enough, plus my car, I have five cars, and the latest one is the Aston Martin Rapide that I bought last month......"

"Dean Yu is very sincere. Wan Guohou interrupted him, "Then, let's make a written agreement another day." He didn't miss the eagerness in the other party's eyes, "These collaterals are just a formality." Am I going to leave you homeless and on the streets?"

Several people laughed.

"Master Hou, when you spoke just now, you were too serious and scared us a little. Yue Shuluo pretended to be coquettish and said, "Punish you and feed me." ”

"Good, good. Wan Guohou smiled indulgently, and at the same time picked up a piece of crab meat and sent it to her mouth.

Seeing Wan Guohou "serving" the moon and falling, Yu Jingbo and Gao Jin also obviously relaxed a lot. After feeding a few mouthfuls, Wan Guohou asked unhurriedly: "Dean Yu, I heard Doctor Sui say that you have always been in Hancheng before? Then how did you come up with the idea of coming to the Demon Capital? Hancheng is so far away from the Demon Capital. ”

Yu Jingbo drank a little wine, his face was slightly red, "Actually, we first moved from Hancheng to Kunming, and we planned to settle in Kunming at that time. Later, I met a friend in Kunming, his family was in the magic capital, and then he said that there was a nursing home that was not doing well and wanted to transfer it at a low price. I jumped at the chance. ”

"Low price?" Wan Guohou said in surprise, "Can I ask how low it is?"

"1.08 million. Yu Jingbo said with a smile, "At the end of 2003." ”

"That's not a bargain. Yue Shuluo said in surprise, "I vaguely remember that at that time, the house price in the magic capital was only about 5,000 yuan, 1.08 million in cash, and many families couldn't take it out." ”

"Well, I used to be in the amber business, and I had a little money in my hand, and I sold my old house, and I could barely scrape it together. I took it all out, and the good family at that time was very small, and the location was remote, and it was very broken. To this day, it is really a little bit bigger. Yu Jingbo recalled that year and seemed to be a little emotional, "In a blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed." ”

"At that time, Dr. Sui must have just been pregnant, right?" Wan Guohou asked.

"Well, my wife just gave birth to a child at that time, and she was very offended, so I ran at both ends and paid the airline a lot. Yu Jingbo took a sip of wine, "My wife is really good, she supports me very much." Looking back, if I hadn't gritted my teeth and ran out, I would have been living in a small amber shop now, selling things to tourists or something. ”

"Good touching story. Wan Guohou grimaced, and fed Yue Shuluo a bite of food. "By the way, Mr. Gao, why didn't you see Miss You today?"
