In Tokyo, even the most fierce dragon is afraid of the hatchet

These are the reasons.

Naoyoshi Nagano broke the convention and was recognized by everyone for the position of vice president.

Because there is no killing without buying and selling.

Without bulls, there would be no bears. This is the rule of the game where risk and wealth are exchanged. The more the bulls lose, the more the bears earn.

However, the newspapers were full of reports that Soros had made $1 billion and was the biggest winner.

However, no one said that Goldman Sachs made $4 billion.

Japan Life Insurance also made $4 billion.

This year.

European currency markets are turbulent.

Capital is leaving the country in large numbers due to concerns about drastic exchange rate fluctuations.

This year.

Japan's overseas strategic investment continues to expand, with Toyota, Honda and Nissan all starting production in the UK.

Also in this year.

East Asian countries have sensed the scent of European and Japanese capital leaving their homelands and have increased the internationalization of their financial markets in an effort to attract more investment.

Thailand was the first to announce it.

The establishment of an offshore financial center and the provision of tax-free policies and other combined incentives are intended to attract foreign investment.

Simultaneously.

BOT publicly announced.

Thailand will make every effort to build itself into an Asian financial center and become a complete market for free trade.

Almost at the same time.

Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines have all launched market liberalization and financial market reforms and introduced various preferential policies.

Relying on cheap labor.

The front page of the Wall Street Journal announced: The Asian miracle is rising at an incredible speed.

As Europe is in decline today, the rise of the Four Little Tigers makes them the most promising new generation of developed countries in Asia.

And this year.

Nao Nagano closed his short position on the British pound, making a profit of one billion pounds, which he injected into the Union Group.

day to day.

Before we knew it, the Spring Festival had arrived.

Kaibe Oko gave birth to a son, who was given a shabby name of Nakamura Taro by Kaibe Toshiki. Nagano Nao wanted to change the name.

But he couldn't resist Kaibu's desire to fight for the eldest son for his niece, so he could only let it go.

the other side.

Both Kurihara Kazuko and Hattori Anko gave birth to daughters, so they had no intention of competing with each other for Dalang or Jiro.

It was this unreasonable woman named Sakurako Ikeda who took both daughters under her name but did not allow Nagano Nao to go any further.

Under the night.

End of day's work.

Nao Nagano sneaked into Sakurako Ikeda's room quietly, tiptoeing, trying to take advantage of her.

However, the woman on the floor opened her eyes silently.

A pair of bright eyes reflected strange colors under the starlight.

Nagano Naoio stood still on the spot.

Ikeda Sakurako turned on the light and said calmly, "Straight guy, you are such a man!

"What? I'm just worried that the weather is too cold tonight, so I came to see if you have covered yourself with the quilt!" Nagano Nao denied it outright, and his shameless attitude was completely invincible.

Ikeda Sakurako didn't listen to his explanation, but asked seriously: "Brother, have you ever thought about this question, under my skin is a man's soul?!"

A brother.

The screams made Nagano Naoko numb.

Suddenly I felt a chill and chills that I couldn't suppress.

Seeing his sad face, Ikeda Sakurako couldn't help laughing, threw him a wink and half-opened her yukata.

The aching and chilling feeling in my heart just now miraculously disappeared in an instant.

pity.

My brother’s martial arts are too strong.

Finally, Ikeda Koba was called in for help.

I lost hundreds of millions of dollars and felt my fate was so bleak. I looked at the ceiling helplessly and just wanted to talk to someone about life and ideals.

Don't tell me yet.

Sometimes your wishes really come true.

Just as Nagano Nao had this thought, the phone on the table suddenly rang.

Don't tell me yet.

Sony has never lost in terms of innovation.

Because of providing funds for Sony to acquire shares in South Korea's Samsung, Nao Nagano, a shareholder representative, received a small high-tech toy.

A counterfeit cell phone worth thirty-six thousand dollars.

The delicate touch screen is only the size of a palm, and in terms of feel and design, except for the system, it is no different from later mobile phones.

of course.

This kind of thing can't be sold.

That is, I got some suggestions from Naoyoshi Nagano and customized some gadgets specifically for him.

"Hello, I'm Nagano Nao."

"Nagano-kun, it's me, Suzuki!"

The call is connected.

The voice of my former classmate Suzuki Hiroshi came from the other end. He spoke hesitantly in a very Japanese tone. Only after Nagano Nao's repeated questioning did he say that he wanted to ask Nagano Nao for help with something, but it was not convenient to do it over the phone, so he hoped to meet and talk.

With curiosity.

Nagano Nao changed his clothes and came to the agreed restaurant.

Suzuki Hiroshi looked depressed as if his wife had cheated on him. After drinking a few glasses of wine, he started to complain bitterly.

Before the Asset Disclosure Law, civil servants were still a relatively popular job with some grey income every year, so at that time Suzuki Hiroshi bought a lot of real estate and invested with loans.

But after the implementation of the Asset Disclosure Law, Suzuki had no choice but to resign in order to keep these industries. However, housing prices fell too sharply. The most disgusting thing was that after the introduction of the property tax, he had to pay taxes on houses every year.

I watched the price of the house drop from 1.6 million to 1 million, 600,000, and then to 300,000.

every time.

Suzuki wants to sell the house, but it hurts to see such a big drop in price at once, and thinks it should rebound first.

And now.

Housing has never rebounded.

In several of Tokyo's 23 wards, housing prices have dropped to as low as 100,000 yen per stack.

"Nagano-kun, this is too outrageous!"

"One hundred thousand for a stack, not even enough to cover the labor and cost of building a house."

"Besides, our country is vast and sparsely populated, with many mountains and a small living area. How could it have fallen to this point?"

"What's even worse is that they didn't collect property tax when I didn't buy the house, but now they collect tax every year. Do they want to eat us, the cattle and horses, to the bones?"

this problem.

Even Nagano Nagao didn't know how to answer the question.

Seriously speaking.

If it wasn't for the house not being able to sell.

How is it possible to collect property tax?

After all, those guys who haven't bought a house yet are very cunning, and it's not easy to cheat them of their money.

But obviously, this high school classmate in front of me doesn’t understand this simple truth.

"This... can't be helped! Suzuki-kun, is there anything I can help you with?"

"It's really embarrassing to talk about this...but I have no choice!"

Seeing my old classmates hesitating.

His face was red, and I didn't know if it was because he was drunk or because he felt embarrassed.

Nagano Nao said sympathetically: "Do you need to borrow money? It's okay, we are all classmates, I will definitely help if I can."

"Nagano-kun, you misunderstood. I'm not borrowing money! I appreciate your kindness, but I want to give you the house. Is that okay with you?"

"Give it to me?"

Nagano Nao was stunned. He didn't expect the other party to say that.

Suzuki smiled bitterly: "It can't be helped. I have to pay back the mortgage every month. Although my income is not bad now, I really can't afford it with the property tax."

"Then you lost all your previous investments? The down payment and the loans you paid off in the past few years are a lot!"

"What can I do? If I default on my mortgage due to overdue payments, the bank will freeze my assets and auction them off. But even if I sell my properties now, I still owe the bank a large sum of money! I may never be able to pay it off in this lifetime."

Unlucky child!
