At dinner time, Masayoshi Kishimoto came to the VIP ward of the hospital where Rie Sakai was located. I, my wife, and my mother-in-law sat down in three directions, southeast, south, and south.

Aiko Sakai had important things about money that she needed to tell Masayoshi Kishimoto in person, so she didn't call her youngest daughter Meiling over for a reunion.

The chef in Kochi's hometown cheered up and tried his best to cook in the kitchen.

Rie Sakai's valet served each of his dishes from the kitchenette to their tables.

"I haven't seen you in a long time since I've been in Osaka last time I'm in Osaka. Aiko Sakai suddenly sighed.

"There was indeed a while. Mother-in-law, this time, in addition to spending more time with Rie, you will spend a few more days in Tokyo. Kishimoto said bluntly.

"Housing prices in Tokyo continue to rise, do you think it's a good investment?" asked Aiko Sakai with a purposeful expression.

Masayoshi Kishimoto held chopsticks in his right hand and responded while eating: "Investment is risky, and you need to be cautious in your decision. ”

"I decided to invest in real estate in Tokyo, but I didn't have enough liquidity on hand. Can you lend me some money?

I won't lend your money for nothing. Interest is charged in accordance with the rules of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government. "Aiko Sakai said it very high-soundingly.

It's not unclear that Masayoshi Kishimoto has no assets in his mother-in-law's name except for the folk inn in Kochi City. Flipping a house is also an investment risk.

Not to mention the house in Tokyo. She made money, but hello, me, everyone. What if she loses money? Not to mention interest, what will she use to repay the money to herself?

She can't pay it back, and it is impossible for her to use violent means to deal with it. Even if she used the folk inn under her name to settle the bill, it was far from enough.

The price of land in Tokyo is not half a star more expensive than that in Kochi City, but it can be more expensive than the sky. Besides, what's the use of holding that folk inn by yourself?

It was an ancestral inn for my mother-in-law's family. He never thought of investing in and entering the Japanese folklore industry, which meant that not only was it useless, but it would also become a hot potato.

Borrowing money between friends and family is not only as simple as borrowing money, but also involves human sophistication. Since it is a borrowed fund, it involves the category of commercial lending.

If you really follow the established rules, the other party will not be able to borrow much money from you at all, and there will be no way to talk about flipping houses for profit.

"To tell my mother-in-law, I've been strapped for money lately, and I'm afraid it's hard to lend you a sum of money to invest in real estate in Tokyo. In order not to trouble in the future, Kishimoto refused politely.

After hearing what he said, Aiko Sakai immediately knew in her heart that it was completely out of play. A big man like a son-in-law has always been the same thing.

She knew what it meant to say too much. It's not that Kishimoto doesn't have money, but that he doesn't want to borrow money. This really confirms what Rie said to herself earlier, and the result will only be the same.

"It's delicious. It's been a long time since I've eaten such authentic hometown food. The taste is still exactly the same as what I used to eat, and it hasn't changed at all. ”

In order to alleviate the embarrassing atmosphere between her husband and her mother due to the borrowing of funds, Rie Sakai deliberately interjected.

"It's delicious, you can eat more. Aiko Sakai fully understood her daughter's intentions, so she came to borrow a donkey to go down the slope.

Masayoshi Kishimoto picked up the sake glass in front of him, tilted his head and drank a glass of sake from his hometown in Kochi City. As for the taste, that's it.

"Son-in-law, do you have any religious beliefs?" asked Aiko Sakai seriously.

"He was completely religious, an atheist. Not only that, but he is also a man with left-wing ideological tendencies in Japan.

That's what makes me particularly funny. He himself is a veritable zaibatsu, but he has the ideological tendencies of the Japanese left. Rie Sakai grinned.

Kishimoto didn't refute it, after all, she said it very objectively. Even if he was born again, he still did not believe in theism.

For him, this is a thing that belongs to the limited development of human civilization and cannot be explained by scientific methods. It's the same as humans couldn't explain the cause of lightning in the past.

"People should still have a certain amount of faith. Aiko Sakai said seriously.

"I have faith. My faith is**. Abolish private ownership of the means of production and establish a society without the class system, exploitation, and oppression, in which mankind can emancipate itself, and which is also a society of socialized collective mass production, will unite in the face of evil forces. Kishimoto said with a grim smile.

Rie Sakai smiled a little and leaned back and said, "You told me that as long as there are instincts such as selfishness, greed, and jealousy in human nature, then it will always be difficult for human society to achieve absolute equal distribution.

The faith you speak of is the best wish of your heart, and this wish can never be fulfilled in reality. ”

"I'm talking about religion. Aiko Sakai said seriously.

Kishimoto Masayoshi listened to her words, and the implication was that he intended to pull himself into the church. He said, "Didn't Rie already tell you everything? I'm an atheist." ”

"People should not only be satisfied with the pursuit of money and material things, but also pursue spiritual things. Aiko Sakai persuaded.

"What you said is completely ineffective for him. Mom, are you religious?" said Rie Sakai with a wink.

Aiko Sakai showed a pious look and said, "Yes." I believe it is a small sect that has just emerged. ”

"It can't be a cult, right? Mom, you have to be more attentive, don't be deceived by the cult. Rie Sakai said with concern.

"Your mother isn't stupid. Aiko Sakai swore an oath.

"One of the target groups targeted by the cult is to prefer you, a middle-aged and elderly woman who is old, has some family life and spiritual deficiencies. Rie Sakai said solemnly.

"I'm not as good as you say. Aiko Sakai said upset.

"You obviously don't get along with your father! I don't know about the fact that you are separated. Rie Sakai punctured the thin layer of window paper.

Aiko Sakai was embarrassed in front of her son-in-law, and said stiffly: "You're just talking nonsense." I'm fine with your dad!"
