Chapter 326: Guilty!
Chapter 326 is in the red!
There are more than 200 member companies of the Yoshino Zaibatsu Board of Managers, their subsidiaries and affiliated companies. It covers almost all industries, and most of them are famous, and there are many famous large multinational companies, Gu Cheng is familiar with a few of them.
Today, Taro Yoshino, the head of the Yoshino chaebol family, is the nineteenth head of the Yoshino family. He has been in charge 20 years ago, and he has worked hard for 20 years to break the situation that the Yoshino chaebol has always been ranked low, making Yoshino the strongest among the four major chaebols in Japan today.
Such a family, what ordinary people can see is only the tip of the iceberg, and if you get a little information from hearsay, you will never know the truth.
And Gu Cheng was stimulated by Yoshino Haruko's words, and it took a long time to calm down.
I only own more than a dozen companies, and I am already very popular in Northridge Province, but compared to Yoshinoya, it is like a small shrimp meeting a big whale, which is completely unequal.
"Haruko, my goal is to make the Ansheng Foundation bigger than your family."
After coming back to his senses, Gu Cheng faced her concerned gaze and replied loudly.
"Makoto-kun? You okay? Even Tetsuta Yoshino felt incredible when he heard about Gu Cheng's situation.
The accumulation of dozens of generations and hundreds of years of the family can make the Yoshino chaebol rich and affect the overall situation of the world, isn't Gu Junmo crazy?
"Chengjun, I believe in you." Yoshino Haruko is not like her younger brother who has only heard of it, these days she has carefully read Gu Cheng's file and admires his skills very much. Secretly there is already a little admiration.
"I believe that Chengjun has this ability, and most of the industries you are investing in now have room for development. But Chengjun, the situation in China is different, you have to prevent politicians from snatching. β
"Understood." Gu Cheng nodded seriously.
"Haruko, I thought you were invited to your house just to thank me. But now it seems that there is some other reason. Gu Cheng said.
Haruko Yoshino didn't deny it, and replied with a smile: "If you just thank Sei-kun, it's okay to be in Tokyo City." Grandpa is very interested in your business and wants to meet you. β
"Oh, yes. Chengjun, in fact, my family has a lot of fate with you. β
Suddenly thinking of something, Yoshino Haruko said excitedly.
"What?" Gu Cheng said curiously.
"Let's talk about it at home." Haruko Yoshino blinked.
At this time, the car passed through a checkpoint, and the guards guarding it were all on guard with guns, which was a little tighter than the Ye family that Gu Cheng had visited.
The scenery outside the car window is beautiful, a mountain scene, and the classical Japanese scenery is presented in front of Gu Cheng's eyes.
Flowers, flowers, trees, roads, all seem to have someone to play with them, and several mountains are like this
"Chengjun, I passed through that door just now, and it's my house." Tetsuta Yoshino said proudly.
It took at least 10 minutes to drive by car, so could it be that these places are Yoshinoya's territory?
"Tetsuta, I estimate that your family accounts for more than half of the entire Nagawa Prefecture, it's amazing." Gu Cheng smacked his tongue.
"It's okay, the other chaebols occupy more land." Haruko Yoshino explained tactfully, and then said, "I'm ready to get off the bus, I'm home." β
When Gu Cheng heard this, he hurriedly looked out, only to see that the continuous gardens had changed their appearance at some point, and pavilions and pavilions appeared like cultural relics and historic sites
This is no longer a house, but a palace.
Gu Cheng recalled in his mind the experience of playing around Shanghai last year, those Jiangnan gardens, and the scenery of Yoshinoya was similar. However, in terms of scale, Yoshinoya relies on the mountains and water veins, and dots the quaint pavilions and bridges among them, so that people are at home and in nature.
After getting out of the car, the three of them were led by servants in kimonos and walked in from under the high gate.
Carved beams and painted buildings, intrigues, floors stacked pavilions, green tiles and vermilion eaves.
The beautiful garden architecture made Gu Cheng dizzy. Living in an environment that is comparable to a tourist destination must be a wonderful thing.
The scenery here completely kills Gu Cheng's proud Imperial Villa.
"Haruko, where are we going now?" Gu Cheng asked as he walked.
Every other distance along the way, there was a maid who gave up her hand to serve, making Gu Cheng feel like he had returned to ancient times and was in a trance for thousands of years. β¦,
It seems that in Yoshino's house, the old system is still enforced, like a feudal lord.
"Take Chengjun to the residence first." Haruko Yoshino replied, "Sei-kun will take a bath and change clothes first, and then we will dine together at noon." In the afternoon, see if grandpa has time. β
"Okay."
Afterwards, Gu Cheng was led by the servant and went to a quiet courtyard, a courtyard of hundreds of square meters, and he was given to live alone, which was very generous.
The mountains and forests are quiet, the birds are chirping, the spring water on the mountain is clear, and the murmuring flows through the courtyard, everything seems to be secluded and leisurely, making people forget the impetuousness and condense the peace of mind.
However, the supplies inside will not be old and old, and there is no such thing as Gu Cheng worried, bathing in a large wooden barrel. From small islands in the sea to secret places in the mountains, there are hot springs or various ornamental hot springs for beauty and fitness.
Yoshino's chaebol is as rich as the country, and the chosen area has a variety of landscapes, so there is no shortage of hot springs at home.
Gu Cheng first washed under the modern shower, and then slowly walked into the small hot spring in the courtyard, where he comfortably relaxed and dissipated his fatigue under the warm water vapor.
Feeling the buoyancy of the water, Gu Cheng found that his body gradually increased some energy. It seems that not only electrical energy, but also these most basic thermal energy can be absorbed.
But after all, there is no electricity to come quickly, Gu Cheng sucked it for a few minutes playfully, and then stopped moving.
I don't know what Blossom is doing alone in Tokyo. When he came, he told her the itinerary, but he didn't say the location.
I'd better go back to school as soon as possible, I don't know what Yoshino's family is looking for me.
While taking a bath, Gu Cheng admired the clouds in the sky.
This kind of open-air bathing, which is in harmony with nature, feels very wonderful - far more than the dense and unventilated bathhouses in China.
The hot spring bath should not be too long, too long bathing time will make the skin red, sweating, and rapid heartbeat. But Gu Cheng didn't have these problems, he swam from time to time, and played for more than an hour before he walked out in the surprised eyes of the maid on the side.
The maid is about twenty-eight years old, beautiful, with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, and she can't see a trace of modern women's independent demeanor.
"How old are you? Why come here? Gu Cheng didn't blush when he saw that she was naked, and asked curiously.
While helping him get dressed, the maid replied, "Gu Jun, I am sixteen years old this year, and I grew up in my own family since I was a child. β
The kimono is wide and draped on Gu Cheng's body, showing that he is heroic and upright, and he is a good horse, and he has the demeanor of an ancient general.
Listening to the maid's words, Gu Cheng was very envious.
It seems that inside the Yoshino chaebol, not only did he continue the tradition of the past, but he was not affected by modern customs, and he actually raised a maid.
This kind of servant is not something that can be hired for money, and Gu Cheng felt frustrated when he thought of the situation in Huaguo.
It seems that this kind of thing will not happen in Huaguo, no matter how rich you are, you will not find such a well-behaved woman
After changing clothes, Gu Cheng was taken care of again, his hair and eyebrows, etc. were carefully constructed, and finally the man in the mirror made the maid's heart tremble.
"Gu Jun, you look so good."
"Hehe, you're not bad."
Gu Cheng smiled modestly, then stepped on the clogs, and walked in the corridor on the wooden floor to meet the Yoshino sisters and brothers.
In one room, Haruko Yoshino and Tetsuta Yoshino, dressed in traditional kimonos, kneel on tatami mats and have a low dining table in front of them.
"Your family is so big." Gu Cheng sat across from them and sighed.
Haruko Yoshino was dressed in a wide kimono, the kimono was mainly white, embroidered with colorful cherry blossom patterns, making her look noble and elegant, with the coiled dark cloud hair, Gu Cheng was almost dumbfounded.
"Chengjun, grandpa heard that you came to the house and promised to meet in the afternoon." Tetsuta Yoshino said next to him.
"Oh." Gu Cheng nodded: "What about the rest of your family?" Along the way, I found that they were all servants. β
"My father was in charge of the group's affairs, and my mother accompanied him, flying around the world every day. There are also five uncles and two aunts, all of whom work in the group. Haruko Yoshino replied briefly.
"Wow!" Gu Cheng admired in his heart, sure enough, as a force that can last for a hundred years, the Yoshino family attaches great importance to the cultivation of successors. β¦,
The more descendants there are, the greater the choice, and the more stable the power.
I also asked, but the meal was brought to the table.
The food was exquisite, light and delicious, and the three of them began to eat.
After it was over, Yoshino Haruko said to Gu Cheng: "Chengjun, I'll take you to see something first." β
"Okay, what's that?" Gu Cheng was very curious.
Haruko Yoshino didn't answer, and smiled in front of her.
The mountains and forests are dotted with courtyards, crossing small bridges, passing pavilions, and walking for more than ten minutes, the three of them came to a splendid building. "What is this?"
Gu Cheng looked at the top of his head - the Treasure Museum.
After entering it, Gu Cheng knew what this place was.
There are many cultural relics and monuments, from pottery from the Jomon period, to ancient paintings and calligraphy, as well as some modern jewelry.
Looking at the scale, it's not much worse than the museums in Kyoto.
There are guards in front of the door, waiters inside, glass protection, monitors rotate, and the vigilance is still very high.
"Chengjun, look, what is this?"
Haruko Yoshino suddenly quickened her steps, her robe danced, walked to a plant, and spoke.
"What?"
Gu Cheng replied as he walked over and looked carefully.
At just one glance, Gu Cheng was surprised and unbelievable.
"W-this?"
"Sister, isn't this the ginseng that my mother bought? What's wrong? Tetsuta Yoshino felt strange.
Yoshino Haruko's beautiful eyes flowed, and she explained with a smile: "Tetsuta, this ginseng was bought by my mother. But do you know who the seller was at that time? It's the Chengjun in front of us! β
In the glassware, a small doll-like ginseng is growing quietly, and the green leaves on the top indicate that it is still alive.
Gu Cheng didn't expect that the ginseng that was sold at a high price at the beginning was actually in Yoshino's house.
In a sense, most of the start-up capital for his career is due to ginseng dolls.
The causes and conditions of the world are truly wonderfulβand they are intoxicating.
Gu Cheng's thoughts drifted back to that excited moment.
After the auction, he and Sister Lian Yaxin walked out of the auction hall and saw the beautiful and noble back.
Is that long-haired woman Haruko's mother?
"Haruko!" Gu Cheng looked at Yoshino Haruko's jade-like face, and said with a smile: "Did you buy this just to watch?" β
She shook her head: "Speaking of which, Sei-kun has a great kindness to our Yoshino family. β
"At that time, my grandfather was seriously ill, and there was no way to treat it with either traditional medicine or modern medicine. In desperation, my mother bought Chengjun's ginseng and took it home with the idea of trying her luck. β
"Who expected, this 10,000-year-old ginseng can already be called a treasure. Just cut off the size of a bowl and let grandpa recover immediately after taking it. Subsequently, the grandfather only drank a cup of ginseng tea every day, and his body became healthier and healthier. β
"Therefore, Gu Jun is kind to the family."
After Haruko Yoshino explained the cause, she respectfully thanked her.
"Hehe, will this be the case?" Gu Cheng replied happily: "Actually, you don't have to thank me, at the beginning, I relied on the money from selling ginseng to show my ability. β
Tetsuta Yoshino also exclaimed: "Sister, it turns out that there is such a thing. Why didn't you tell me sooner? β
"The family only knew a few days ago, after all, the information about Chengjun is different according to the relationship, and the level of investigation is also different." Haruko Yoshino replied.
Seeing ginseng again, Gu Cheng didn't know what it was like in his heart.
Be proud, not to talk about. Do you regret it, and even more not.
Although this ginseng strain took a long time to evolve, Gu Cheng couldn't have much emotion. It will not be regarded as a rare treasure. So now that Yoshinoya has put it in a place full of treasures, Gu Cheng actually wants to laugh a little in his heart.
But on the surface, it couldn't be shown, Gu Cheng casually dealt with Tetsuta Yoshino's words, toured the museum, and greedily looked at the cultural relics inside.
Time flies, the sun is slanting in the west, the afternoon heat is a little stuffy, the mountains and forests are jubilant, Gu Cheng followed the two sisters and brothers to meet the head of the Yoshino chaebol, Yoshino Taro.
β¦,
In a large hall, three people knelt together in the middle, across a long table, opposite the head of the house.
Taro Yoshino was over seventy years old, not tall, short enough, not as tall as his younger offspring, and simply wore a gray kimono.
He has a square face and sharp eyes, and at first glance he is the traditional head of the old and serious family.
Gu Cheng was not afraid of him, sat down on the tatami mat, and then greeted: "Yoshino-kun, hello!" β
The sister and brother of Haruko Yoshino next to her shouted in unison: "Grandpa! β
"Hmm."
Yoshino Taro stared at Gu Cheng for a while before he responded, "Gu, welcome." β
It should be said that Taro Yoshino has the so-called momentum, and he understands this just by looking at Tetsu Yoshino's anger and not daring to come out.
But Gu Cheng didn't care at all, he believed in his own strength.
Yoshino Taro took a sip of the teacup and said, "Thank you for teaching this kid Tetsuta and letting him know his way back." β
"Hehe, it's still Zhetaijun who has his own Huigen, I'm just doing a little favor." Gu Cheng replied with a smile.
Yoshino Taro bowed slightly, and said straight to the point: "Gu, I agree with you, but it's not for family life." I know all about your situation. β
"Grandpa!" Yoshino Haruko suddenly spoke up, looking at Gu Cheng with a worried face.
Taro Yoshino ignored his granddaughter and continued: "Gu, you are very talented, your instinct to make money is very good, and coupled with the rapid economic growth of Huaguo, I am very optimistic about your future. β
"But you also have a lot of problems to face.
The greed of politicians and bureaucrats, competition in the same industry, and repression from multinational corporations can lead to the collapse of your business empire. Your main industry now is the Internet, but this industry is changing day by day, and it is difficult to develop as a pillar. Gu, have you thought about it? β
Seeing his step-by-step appearance, Gu Cheng felt that there was a problem.
Taro Yoshino came to himself, there must be some intention.
"What can be taught?" Gu Cheng pretended to be an inquisitive baby.
Yoshino Taro nodded with satisfaction, and then said the purpose: "Gu, in Huaguo, my Yoshino family owns a lot of properties, if you are willing to join my family, then you can get great help." It's enough to make you the premier presence in China. β
"Join your family? What do you mean? Gu Cheng was puzzled.
Yoshino Taro looked at him: "Enter my family and marry Haruko." Become a member of my Yoshinoya. With the support of the family power, Huaguo's company is at your disposal. β
"Grandpa!" Haruko Yoshino shouted coquettishly, extremely ashamed.
This dish is grandpa will forcibly let Chengjun return to obedience, which is like grandpa actually wants to marry Chengjun himself.
Is it because he has praised Chengjun too many times? It's so embarrassing!
Haruko Yoshino, who was completely unprepared, was in a state of turmoil and didn't know what to do.
Gu Cheng glanced at Haruko Yoshino, her face was like a peach blossom, fragrant and gorgeous, obviously she liked herself.
However, how can such conditions be agreed.
The categorical answer: "Impossible!" β
Haruko Yoshino's shy smile suddenly stopped, and she looked at Gu Cheng with some surprise. Tetsuta Yoshino, who was originally very happy next to him, also opened his mouth wide at this moment, unable to believe what Gu Cheng said.
"Boy, what did you say?" Taro Yoshino asked with a frown.
"I said - no way!" Gu Cheng repeated word by word, with a resolute attitude.
Yoshino Taro laughed angrily: "Gu, you know, what are you refusing?" β
"Perhaps, you think you're already rich. But do you really reach out to rich people? Let me tell you the truth of this world! β
"We are now involved in the banking, information industry, entertainment industry, mineral energy, weapons and equipment, automobiles, etc., and have more than 200 companies, among which there are dozens of joint ventures in China, such as automobile companies, and the assets of one are more than the so-called Ansheng consortium. Gu, you are rejecting a mountain of gold! β
"At our level, it can be said that we have become invincible and will not decay again. Because the tentacles of the economy extend to all walks of life, every household, and ordinary people's food, clothing, housing and transportation are inseparable. They can get rid of one, but they can't get rid of everything. Because, we represent an advanced civilization, and we are the creators of this era. β
"The most important thing is that since the last century, a series of monopolistic consortia have begun to form around the world. Most of them, having carried out joint actions, mastered the banking sector and controlled the right to issue secular state money! No matter how much money ordinary people make, as long as they are still in this currency circulation system, they will eventually be charged profits by the bank. βγ οΌ
