Chapter 14 Recommendations of the Elite Bureaucrats of the Former Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry

"I'm going to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to participate in foreign affairs training? Sakurako-chan, this is incredible!"

Seeing Miko's surprise after learning that she had been officially selected for the economic and trade delegation to Ethiopia, Sakurako couldn't help but bow her head a little embarrassed.

"This thing...... Thank you, Mr. Kono, for helping me, I never thought I would have the opportunity to participate in the economic and trade mission of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs."

Sakurako said as she stood up gratefully and saluted Kono Sho, and Kono Shohei quickly stood up and said with excuse when he saw this:

"Please don't care, this matter is just a gesture! But I also helped you get an interest-free loan of 10 million US dollars by the way, and I don't know if it will help you!"

"A thousand...... 10,000?"

"Dollars?"

"That's a lot of money!"

……

I heard Shohei Kono talk about loans...... Lin Xiuyi and the others present couldn't help but be stunned by this huge amount of money, knowing that 10 million US dollars would be 1 billion yen if converted into yen, which was simply a sky-high number for ordinary office workers. It's no wonder that everyone is so shocked by the money.

"That...... Mr. Kono, I've never handled such a lot of money before!"

Hearing that Shohei Kono actually helped her get so many loans, Sakurako couldn't help but be a little frightened for a while. To be honest, Sakurako made a lot of money when she ran a club in Ginza before, but ...... She's never experienced what it's like to hold a billion yen in her hands. Such a large loan, if she can't handle it properly, not only will it not improve Sakura's business ability, but it may cause more trouble, but considering that Mr. Kono is also well-intentioned. Sakurako really doesn't know what to do about this kind of thing now.

"I'm sorry, I was ...... I just want to help you get an interest-free loan of one million dollars, but Yasuda asked me to use up more of the loan amount, otherwise the Ministry of Finance will reduce the budget next year, and ...... I really can't say no, so ...... I'll take it upon myself to help you get it down. Seemingly...... I'm causing you trouble!"

"Please don't say that, Mr. Kono, I should thank you no matter what!"

Although she was worried about this huge loan of up to 10 yen, Sakurako still thanked Kono Shohei seriously, but just when everyone was worried about how to use this loan for Sakurako, Kirihara Soji, who had been extremely quiet since just now, suddenly said:

I said...... Have you ever considered the question of what if Sakurako really bought the forest and completely monopolized these ancient coffee varieties? What if people come to realize the value of these coffee trees in the future and want to take away the ownership of these coffee trees from Sakurako?"

"Huh...... If Sakurako buys it, she will sign a contract with the Ethiopian government!"

Hasa Seiichi replied to Kirihara Soji without thinking.

"It's a third world country, and it's ...... It is still one of the least developed countries in the world, and the influence of the Ethiopian government is not worth mentioning in the face of tribal forces, perhaps the situation in Addis Abe, the capital of Ethiopia, is not too bad, but in the border area of Bench-Maji (Bench-Maji), which is close to South Sudan, if there is a dispute with the local people about interests or other aspects, I am afraid that even the Ethiopian government will not be able to do anything!"

As soon as Kirihara Soji said this, everyone present fell into deep worry again, and even Shohei Kono, who was comforting Sakurako just now, couldn't help but be silent.

"Haha, it's not going to stump you all with such a thing!"

Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Kirihara Soji laughed a little calmly, and then he sat up straight, and then continued to everyone with a serious expression:

"It seems that everyone thinks that Sakura's investment this time is a little simple! Although it is also a business, it is ...... In a country like Ethiopia, the rules of the game are completely different from those in Japan, and if we don't take precautions in advance, we may undo all the hard work and hard work of the proprietress at that time......

Hearing Kirihara Soji's warning, Sakurako couldn't help but become worried, so she sincerely asked Kirihara Soji for advice:

"Mr. Kirihara, is it ...... Have you thought of ways to avoid these risks?"

"Huh...... He is worthy of being an elite bureaucrat of the former Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, but he really has a set! Mr. Kirihara!"

"Can you explain to us in detail what we need to do so that Sakurako can complete this investment with confidence?"

……

Hearing everyone's gossip, Kirihara Soji knew that he had whetted everyone's appetite, so he no longer played dumb riddles with everyone, but raised his hand, stretched out a finger and said solemnly:

"If you were to ask my opinion, I would think that the $10 million loan might not be enough......! I don't think it's the forests in Ethiopia that really need to be invested, it's the lady herself!"

"I ...... What the hell are you going to say, Mr. Kirihara?"

"It's you, only if you have enough prestige, can you keep those ancient coffee trees forever, and can you really take this fantastic coffee into your own hands!"

"Wait, why don't I understand what you mean......? What do you mean?"

Hearing Lin Xiuyi's puzzled self-inquiry, Kirihara Sect immediately turned around and explained to him:

"I plan to use most of the $10 million to make the proprietress an internationally renowned feminist and environmentalist, because only then can the proprietress truly take these precious coffee resources into her own hands. Do you know why rich people like to portray themselves as philanthropists, because a good reputation allows them to better manage their wealth, and this principle is also the same when it comes to the investment in front of them, and only when Miss Sakurako has enough fame can she become the real owner of these coffees. ”

After hearing this general explanation from Soji Kirihara, everyone seemed to understand a little bit about what this former bureaucrat from the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry was up to.

"So...... Mr. Kirihara, what the hell are you going to let me do?"

After Sakurako thought for a moment, she asked Kirihara Soji for advice with some heart:

"That $10 million investment...... In addition to leaving enough money to buy the land, I recommend that you donate the rest to the local environmental protection and women's rights protection agency in Ethiopia......"
