Peace cigarettes, the highest-grade and most expensive cigarettes in Japan, were first introduced in the fifties of the last century and were the favorite tobacco of Emperor Showa.

Among them, the black and blue iron box model is extremely difficult to buy, and it has been far from a premium of nearly half in the launch price.

Even if it is Shirakawa Arima's identity, it is extremely rare to get a whole box of black and blue iron boxes and flat cigarettes, in addition to being able to be used as a very decent souvenir, it is also rare to keep it for yourself, and it is no wonder that just now Shirakawa Akiji said that after moving a whole box away, he almost staged a show of father's love and filial piety.

Of course, this is not a big deal compared to talking about the next investment of 100 million yen.

Then there were no surprises.

Go directly to the topic, negotiate the scale of agricultural product investment types and revenue sharing, the project book Taki Tanizawa has received an email from Shirakawa Akiji on the computer before, in which the majority of the investment is placed in the tea garden of Xiashan City and the sweet potato of Kawagoe City, which is quite professional, and there is no problem with the logic of the tea tasting holy hand to invest in a tea garden, and it is very harmonious.

In fact, the real process of talking about things is often very fast, and the slow is the determination of the intention, so after the intention is determined, it will be done in more than half an hour.

The process of joining the agricultural cooperative has also been completed for a long time.

As one of the directors of the Saitama Prefecture Headquarters Agricultural Association, Shirakawa Arima just took out a few documents and asked Takitazawa to stamp them, and when he turned around, he would send someone to send this thing to the headquarters for archiving, and it couldn't be faster than that.

Even for the transfer matter, after signing the letter of intent and contract for cooperation, Takiyazawa called Mitsubishi Bank on the spot to make an appointment for a large transfer.

After all, this is money from the bank.

If you save 100 million yen, this amount can completely allow the bank to send relevant personnel to handle it.

This is the basic exercise of the bank to open an umbrella and collect the umbrella on a sunny and rainy day.

Through the telephone capital verification, coupled with the willingness to take out 100 million yen of working capital investment at will, even Shirakawa Arima was secretly frightened, and his tone changed in the chat after that, a little less of the posture of treating him purely as a junior just now, more of a respect for business partners, and at the same time, he was surprised that his son who would only pull him back could make such a friend.

"I hope we can have a good time working together this time!"

"I'm sure it will."

"Anyway, I'm still very grateful, there will be a banquet later, I wonder if Ozawa has time to enjoy the light?"

"Is it your family dinner?"

"No, it's a banquet between friends, the scale is not large, I thought that everyone would cancel the typhoon coming, but it was still normal, it happened to be bumped into today, and it can save me a sum of money."

The last sentence is to save money on the surface, Takitanazawa will not be so stupid as to think that the other party will pick the door so much that he is reluctant to arrange a meal even after talking about hundreds of millions of yen business.

There is no stupid middle-aged man with a successful career like Shirakawa Arima, at least before, even if he didn't think that he could take out such a large sum of money, the surface work was still in place, and he could clearly feel the warm feeling of the elders, and now he has this kind of behavior in the snow, and the other party invited him, and said this sentence, of course, there are other considerations.

There is an order to really gain a foothold in this social dye vat and achieve a decent career.

Do things first, then make a name, and then mix up the circle of contacts.

This order must not be reversed.

To do things is to have strength, to work hard in a certain field, to have your own basic plate, at least even if you throw money out, there is a steady stream of capital, and this is the reason why Takitanazawa deducts money from women.

And the next thing is to make a name, and if you have the capital, someone must know it, otherwise you won't even be able to spend it.

Now Takitanazawa has already reached the threshold of the last step, like Shirakawa Arima's code words to invite him to the banquet, in fact, it is intended to lead him into the circle, introduce contacts, and give back his value.

With a circle, you will naturally get to know people.

When you have connections, you will also have tickets that can be exchanged with each other at an equal price, and you can grab more benefits.

Power, money, status.

It's all in the process.

Takitanazawa is not a master of the Tao who is outside the world, of course, he will not feel that it is a troublesome thing to owe favors or others to owe favors to himself, and this thing is owed to each other in social relations, as for whether it will involve whether certain positions are firm in the future.

This is very simple, he does not rely on circle connections to obtain benefits, but only to improve the status of knowledge.

Therefore, the binding force of interest binding is not very strong for him.

To make money, green tea is enough!

No matter how bad it is to marry the little fat sheep home, even if the family has money, she will not be allowed to be a rich wife, drive her out of the door to work to make money for herself, plus Sister, it is estimated that it will not take a few years, tens of billions is still very simple, of course, this is the last choice to abandon the sense of morality and appreciate the scenery of the tea garden.

Now that dignity and status are close at hand, it is also the reward for my efforts these days.

No matter what kind of consideration, Takitanizawa had no reason to refuse, so he shook hands with the other party and said with a smile: "That junior is disrespectful." ”

The banquet took place at a manor in Ageo City.

It's a long way to go.

Outside, the wind swept through the leaves, and the showers seemed to pour out the Milky Way, and Kazama Fuda turned the frequency of the wipers to the fastest, but the water on the windshield still made his visibility very low, and he had to drive carefully.

He was used to banquets.

Twenty years ago, when he first entered the government police headquarters as a quasi-professional group, he was taken by his boss to participate.

That's right, it's the prefectural police headquarters.

Kazama Fuda is a native of Osaka, and was once admitted to the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters through the national B examination, but later offended people who should not be offended by some accidents, and was directly assigned to Kochi Prefecture on the island of Shikoku, which is equivalent to going to a fish pond.

It was also dormant for several years, and with all his might, he was reluctantly transferred from Kansai to Kanto.

If it weren't for such a distant transfer.

I'm afraid he's still on Shikoku Island.

It was this incident, coupled with the precipitation that had been suppressed for several years, that Fuda Kazama has gradually become sleek from the high-spirited teenager he once was, and he has participated more and more frequently in the drinking party that he disdained before.

Seeing that his body is now round like a ball, who knows that he has won the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters Police Kendo Award before.

It can only be said that the years are unforgiving.

Leaving the Kansai region and losing the shadow that hung over his head was indeed able to make Kazama Fuda let go of his hands and feet, but the reality was not a TV series, and he couldn't do anything when he was transferred to Kokoban in Saitama Prefecture as a quasi-professional group.

It's quite preferential.,There's no quasi-professional group in the entire Jiaoban.,He also has a big virtual title.。

But that's about it.

Reading the newspaper and drinking tea every day, riding a bicycle and catching cats and dogs like ordinary patrol policemen, today it is not this quarrel that has fanned out two of his wife's teeth, and tomorrow it is the child who fell into the dung pit, and there is no other patrol police in him He still has to pinch his nose and fish it himself.

There is no shadow of the superior.

He also lost his local connections.

Kazama Fuda dragged his family to Saitama, except for his wife, who can be said to be unaccompanied, not to mention any boss care, even ordinary patrol officers laughed at him.

After all, the quasi-professional group is equivalent to the distribution.

It is difficult for those patrol officers to lose their jobs, and they know that their future is hopeless, and his identity as an Osaka is even more discriminatory, so he has to ask him if he can wait for the red light to turn green when he crosses the street with his colleagues on a bicycle.

Even if Fuda Kazama has long since let go of his dignity.

When I have time, I will run to the house of the boss of the district bureau with a gift and ask for warmth, and even take out the savings accumulated for many years after discussing with my wife to get through the relationship, basically people will send away the reason that you are not from Tokyo, and there is no room for negotiation at all.

Even now that he thought about it, he was speechless and choked.

Isn't this Saitama Prefecture?

Are you Tokyoites all the time?

This regional discrimination is not acted, and Kazama Fuda has no choice, so he can only return to Koban in frustration, and continue to ride a bicycle to catch cats and dogs, until one day, he was lucky to risk his life on the street to catch an indiscriminate murderer, and he was stabbed five or six times, and the turning point in his life finally appeared.

He finally broke free from the cage of Jiaoban and was transferred to the General Affairs Division of the Omiya Ward Police Station and was promoted to the police department.

Although it is still not too good for the future.

But at least it's a little normal.

After more than 10 years of this work, he became the director of the town house management office and the crime victim support office, and then the head of the Information Management Division and the head of the General Affairs Division, and then became a police officer at the age of 45.

Looking back on the past, there were a lot of emotions along the way.

But that's the end of it.

At most, the quasi-professional group has come to his point, and only a small number of people can become police officers, and their connections and resources have been exhausted for this promotion, and he has become the director of the personnel section of the police department of the Saitama Prefecture Police Headquarters, and after that, at most, he can still hang a false title when he retires, and leave his post with the treatment of police officers.

Kazama Fuda sighed, and after suddenly losing his goal, the twilight breath in his heart continued to pour out.

The banquet he attended today.

According to his previous rank, he couldn't go.

Although he was also invited, he was just a foil, but even so, whether it was for entertainment or other reasons, Kazama Fuda had to laugh at it, after all, in Japan, even the status of high-level police officers is difficult to compare with capital and politicians.

Not to mention him, who has just entered the middle level.

And to participate in this kind of banquet, Kazama Fuda also has almost impossible hopes, what if he runs into a nobleman? And in case you can really make some impressions on some people, it is not impossible to go further, even if the probability is close to zero.

He really wants to improve!

If I could have worked harder and passed the national class A exam to be admitted to the professional group, if I had the parents of the chief police officer when I was young, if I could climb to the president or a big shot.

Driving the car into the manor and parking it in the rain, Kazama Fuda walked to the villa in a trance with an umbrella and under the guidance of the waiter, even if it was raining.

Realized the wish that I once wanted to achieve the most, and deeper wishes and expectations were born naturally, but the ravines faced by wanting to be promoted further were like a moat that could not be crossed, and I was a little overwhelmed when I got what I wanted.

"Kazama-san, why did you arrive so late?"

When he walked into the golden banquet hall of the villa and was still confused, a slightly reproachful voice sounded, pulling him back to reality.

Fuda Kazama came back to his senses for a while, and when he saw the middle-aged man in his early forties in front of him, he was distracted, and quickly laughed, explaining that he was stuck in traffic because of the typhoon.

Although this middle-aged man is not as old as him, he is the head of the Health and Welfare Division of the Saitama Prefectural Police Headquarters, and the professional group is a police officer, and his top boss was transferred from the Omiya Police Station to the headquarters by relying on the relationship between his wife's distant relatives and the other party's mother, and he still has to please him.

The manor is large and the banquet hall is large.

During this period, there are waiters who push the dining cart non-stop to serve champagne and desserts, showing the atmosphere of high society.

Fuda Kazama was secretly a little speechless.

He had participated in a banquet before, but he had never participated in a banquet of this level, and seeing that the wine of the same brand that he had spent money on was opened and drunk as water like this, he felt that the holding of this banquet should also have his own sponsorship in the wine.

Although I thought so in my heart, of course I didn't dare to say it.

After being promoted to the bottom of this circle, he finally got a glimpse of the whole picture, and the head of the health and welfare section who brought him here gave a few words of advice with some anxiety:

"Kazama-san, that one is the mayor of Kawaguchi City, Inoue, and the one next to him is the former chairman of the prefectural council, Yasuto Kuriyayama, and the president of Saitama Mitsubishi Bank, today's banquet is held by them, and there should be an auction of antique calligraphy and paintings, but don't participate, just watch and eat on the side."

When mentioning the topic of auctioning antique calligraphy and paintings, the section leader deliberately accentuated his tone to remind him.

Fuda Kazama is certainly not a fool either.

He had long heard that there was such a banquet held by the upper echelons called an antique auction, but it was actually a matter of paying service contributions, so it was naturally clear at a glance.

This game is more advanced than his.

Fuda Kazama's fat face showed a rare trace of seriousness, and he nodded, "I understand this matter." ”

"That's good, just take a walk, if you meet acquaintances, you can talk, I happened to see a few old friends, I'll call you when it's time to leave."

The middle-aged section chief patted him on the shoulder and said.

However, just as he wanted to leave, he was stopped by Fuda Kazama just after taking a step, and then heard a voice in shock: "Minister, who is that?" ”

The middle-aged section chief raised his eyebrows, only frowned slightly, and then looked in the direction pointed by Kazama Fuda, and said loudly after seeing the person who was laughing: "That is the director of the prefectural agricultural cooperative, and he is also one of the prefectural councilors, and one of the two young people next to him is his son, and the other I don't know." ”

The director of the prefectural agricultural cooperative and the prefectural councilor are both very valuable names, and as far as he knows, the other party is also the president of a large agricultural company.

With such an identity and status, it is estimated that he will not be willing to change it even if he is the head of a certain department of the county police headquarters.

After all, in addition to these, there is also capital.

But in the blink of an eye, his heart moved, since he could be mentioned and maybe he would know him, the middle-aged section chief asked quietly: "What, Kazama-san knows?" ”

"Yes, I do." Fuda Kazama nodded slowly.

Looking at the familiar face who was chatting and laughing with the director of the agricultural cooperative, Kazama Fuda didn't expect to meet this young man who had repeatedly stuffed himself with money here, and then thought that in addition to the first meeting, it seemed that he had not been embarrassed by the principle of customer first.

On the other side, Takitizawa is holding champagne.

It was indeed his first time at a banquet.

But for this kind of scene, he can be calm and calm in his heart, the main thing is that he has the confidence and his waist will not bend, capital is a fist, he does not ask for things and is not short of money, he naturally has no need to be timid, but smiles and chats with Shirakawa Arima.

It's just that he's only halfway through a sentence.

While there were two more figures in front of him, a familiar voice with a slight surprise also came from his ears.

"Ozawa, you're here too?"

Takitanizawa was slightly stunned for a moment, looked at the two middle-aged people standing in front of him, swept past the faces on the left that he had never met, and then looked at the slightly ugly fat face wearing silver glasses, and said in surprise: "Kazama-senpai? ”

"Oh, what's it called, senior, although I'm a few years older than you, but after what happened last time, I hit you off at first sight, and it's good to call me Kazama when we meet."

Compared with his surprise, Fuda Kazama's fat face showed a smile like a spring breeze, and he directly took his hand and shook it vigorously, as if he had met an old friend, and there was even a faint flattery in his words.

Takitanizawa was even more surprised when he saw this.

I was a little curious.

Kazama seniors, why did they go before and after Gongya?
