I became a nouveau riche and found a poor young lady as my fiancée
Page 57
It would be a good opportunity to give Tomoyo to the old butler for internship. After all, Butler Fujiwara is only loyal to Shinomiya Mikoto, so if they separate in the future, he still has Tomoyo to use.
After he had thought about everything, he was the last one to take a shower and go back to bed. Maybe because he had been using his brain too much, he couldn’t fall asleep.
“Damn it. I just wanted to be a happy second-generation nouveau riche, but gradually I went astray. I’m really asking for trouble.” Song Gangdong sighed as he looked out the window.
But I still feel excited to think that I can leave some traces in this era full of opportunities. Human beings are such contradictory creatures.
The next day, Matsuoka Tou and Shinomiya watched Saori go to school with a resentful look in her eyes, and then called Fujiwara butler to come and save the situation.
“Miss,” Butler Fujiwara came over soon.
Shinomiya said apologetically, “I’m sorry, Butler Fujiwara. I said I would come to see you after my foot healed, but in the end I have to trouble you to help me.”
Butler Fujiwara responded happily: “Miss, please don’t say that. It is my honor to help you again.”
“Thank you” Shinomiya Mikoto was very pleased.
Song Gangdong suggested: “In fact, if everything goes well this time, you should be able to buy a big house, and then hire Fujiwara as a butler.”
However, Sigong shook his head and refused: “Although this amount of money is not small, it is not much either. It would be a waste to buy real estate. It is better to invest all of it in your plan.”
“Okay then.” Song Gangdong nodded when he saw her like that.
As for Butler Fujiwara, it doesn’t matter. He has always been the butler of the Shinomiya family, and he will definitely agree when he can be used.
Songgang Dong was very envious of this, but unfortunately he now only had a reserve Chidai who was being trained, and he didn’t know how loyal this guy would be in the future.
As for the issue regarding the agreement, Song Gangdong also asked about it, but Shigong said that the expected money was still not enough, which made Song Gangdong complain again that his father was really evil.
The time was almost up, and this time they did not take a taxi or the subway, but drove the Bentley Continental R directly out of the garage.
This is a treasure under the tree in Songgang, transported directly from the sea. There are probably only a few of them in the whole of Neon, and it is very conspicuous when driving on the road.
“Your family actually has this car?” Si Gong said in surprise.
“It’s my father’s favorite, and I have to show off my skills when I meet him,” Song Gangdong said with a smile.
“My family used to have one too,” Shinomiya Mikoto said with a somewhat gloomy look on her face.
Butler Fujiwara said quickly: “It’s almost time, we should set off.”
After hearing his words, the three of them got in the car. Shigong and Matsuoka were both dressed very formally today, one in a dark brown kimono with a maple leaf pattern, and the other in a slim-fitting handmade suit.
Fujiwara looked at the two of them in the rearview mirror and smiled. This scene reminded him of when the master and the lady traveled together.
Chapter 97: Transaction Completed
At the Tokyo Imperial Hotel, Butler Fujiwara got out of the car and opened the door for the two of them. Then he handed the car to the staff and the three of them walked inside.
The place they agreed on was the business conference room in the hotel, which was absolutely reassuring in terms of privacy, and many business meetings were held here every day.
“It’s really luxurious here,” Songgang Dong said admiringly.
This was the first time for him to come into such a high-end hotel. After all, he was reluctant to spend the money before, and even now he was reluctant to do so.
The interior decoration of the hotel is not much different from that of the future, and the materials used may be even better than those in the future.
“Indeed, the service is also very good.” Shinomiya Mikoto had obviously been here before.
“The master often meets guests here,” said Butler Fujiwara with some nostalgia.
After a while, the staff led them to a door, and then he politely withdrew. Butler Fujiwara walked forward, knocked on the door gently, and opened it.
“Long time no see, Butler Fujiwara.” Shinomiya Ryo was obviously not surprised.
He was standing in front of the window at this time, holding a cigar in his hand. He looked very imposing and did not move after they came in.
“President Shinomiya Ryo,” Butler Fujiwara responded politely.
“Actually, we are old acquaintances. There’s no need to be so formal, don’t you think, niece Mikoto?” Shinomiya Ryo said with a smile.
“Please call me Ms. Shinomiya,” said Mikoto Shinomiya coldly.
Shinomiya Ryo smiled and said, “I am still your uncle after all, but you can insist on it, Ms. Shinomiya.”
“I don’t want to chat with you about nonsense. I’m here to do a deal today. I’ll pay you and get the goods.” Shinomiya Mikoto’s expression was very serious.
“He looks a bit like your father. Okay, now let’s talk about how to trade. I also need to know the authenticity of the things,” Shinomiya Ryo responded indifferently.
At this time, several people sat on the sofa facing each other, and Butler Fujiwara stood aside, on guard.
“No problem, one hundred million yen for one price,” Shinomiya Mikoto said firmly.
Shigong Liang narrowed his eyes and said, “Ms. Shigong, you are asking for too much.”
At this time, Song Gangdong smiled and said, “I think President Shigong Liang should know the value of these floppy disks, and the price we offer can be said to be very cheap.”
“Songgang Dong, I know you, the son of a nouveau riche, a high school student. Can you judge the value of these floppy disks with your knowledge?” He looked ridiculous.
Song Gangdong was not angry but said casually: “EDA is one of the core of semiconductors. Without it, high-end chips cannot be manufactured at all. We should be the only one on the market now.”
“It seems that you, a high school student, know a lot. Are you interested in working at Shinomiya Group in the future?” Shinomiya Ryo suggested with a smile.
“If Mikoto takes control of the Shinomiya Group in the future, I will consider it,” Matsuoka Dong responded.
“Then I’m really looking forward to it,” said Shinomiya Ryo with a smile.
Shinomiya Mikoto urged coldly: “One hundred million yen, not a single cent less.”
“Okay, but I want to know whether the things on the floppy disk are real,” Shinomiya Ryo said readily after being exposed.
In fact, he didn’t want to continue haggling, and 100 million yen was not a lot of money and did not touch his bottom line. The Western side was urging him to pay quickly, so it would be better to do it quickly.
Of course, as a businessman, it was his habit to buy at a low price, which was the best. If he couldn’t get a bargain, that was fine. However, it was somewhat beyond his expectations that the price was so low.
“Let’s verify it now,” Song Gangdong said as he took out the floppy disk.
There was some excitement in Sigong Ryo’s eyes when he saw those floppy disks. After all, although he had to hand them over, he could still keep a backup, which would be a trump card no matter how he used it in the future.
He knocked on the table and two people came out from another room. They looked like technicians. They started to test the authenticity of the software.
Song Gangdong has been next to the computer case. If the other party wants to snatch it, he will destroy the floppy disk first, since he has a backup anyway.
Fortunately, Shigong Liang was very honest. After half a day, the two technicians nodded to him and left.
“It’s the cash we agreed on,” Shinomiya Mikoto urged, looking directly at Shinomiya Ryo.
Shinomiya Ryo clapped his hands and another person came out with a silver suitcase in his hand. He came to the table and opened the suitcase. Inside was bundles of Japanese yen.
“Fujiwara Butler” Shinomiya Mikoto turned around and greeted.
Butler Fujiwara came over, picked up the money, flipped it over and nodded: “Money is fine.”
“I wouldn’t cheat you out of this little money,” Shigong Liang said calmly.
Shinomiya Mikoto looked at him coldly and said, “You can never be too careful when facing a betrayer. And if you harass me and the Matsuoka family again in the future, then wait for the consequences.”
“Ms. Sigong, you have to provide evidence when you speak. When have I ever harassed you? Be careful or I will sue you for defamation,” Sigong Liang responded with narrowed eyes.
However, Shinomiya Mikoto ignored him. After Butler Fujiwara took the cash box, she signaled Matsuoka Dong to leave.
“You’re not doing any reproduction or anything, are you?” said Shigong Liang behind them.
Shinomiya Mikoto turned around calmly: “Guess?”
Then they walked forward. Shinomiya Ryo watched them walk away with a cold look in his eyes. The people he sent reported to him that Shinomiya Mikoto and the others did not go out at all after returning home, nor did they buy spare floppy disks.
Moreover, when we searched the house at that time, we confirmed that there were only two floppy disks in Songgang’s house, both of which were given away as gifts when the computer was purchased. As for the CD-ROM drive and CD, those people didn’t know about them so naturally they didn’t mention them.
After all, the order they received was to check the floppy disk, so those who cannot keep up with the times will always be eliminated.
“If we let them go like this, what if they have copied software in their hands?” said his subordinates.
Shigong Liang smiled and said, “It doesn’t matter. In fact, it’s better to have it. If the West investigates, we can just blame them.”
That’s right, he actually also had the idea of selling the software. After all, the loss of Sigong Shuxia suffered a great blow to the subsequent research and development of the software by the Sigong Group.
The West will certainly continue to update after getting it, so even if they reproduce it, it will be eliminated sooner or later. It would be better for them to sell it secretly now and make a fortune.
Of course, Matsuoka Dong and Shinomiya Mikoto didn’t know that they would become competitors with Shinomiya Ryo in the future, and that it would have a great impact on their sales. After all, there are only a few forces that need this software.
After they got the money, they drove to the bank immediately. After all, it was not safe to keep so much cash in their hands, and they had to convert it into US dollars and deposit it in overseas accounts. From now on, they began to prepare to implement the plan.
Chapter 98: Library Study
After a wave of transactions was completed, the Songgang family finally returned to peace, and the people around them also withdrew, but it was not certain whether there were still people in the dark.
“Thank you for your hard work, teacher.” Matsuoka Dong and Shinomiya Mikoto breathed a sigh of relief after coming out of the office.
Sure enough, after returning to school today, Teacher Ohkouchi called them into his office and gave them a scolding, and warned them that he would be more strict if their midterm exam scores dropped.
I say this because I know their parents are not at home, otherwise I would probably resort to the ultimate weapon of asking the parents to come.
“I would rather be beaten by Teacher Ohga. Her voice is still echoing in my ears,” said Shinomiya Mikoto with a wry smile.
Song Gangdong agreed: “This is the first time I know a teacher can be so talkative, even talking about the future of the child.”
The two of them looked at each other helplessly, and then returned to the classroom. Saori seemed a little angry when she saw them, after all, they had been alone together recently.
Ito Kabuto, the know-it-all behind him, was also very curious and asked softly: “Where have you been these two days? Miss Shinomiya didn’t come either. It can’t be you…”
“How is that possible? It’s just a coincidence. I didn’t come because of something at home. As for Sigong, I don’t know about him,” Songgang Dong quickly denied.
Their relationship should be kept secret at school as much as possible, otherwise if they dig deeper, sooner or later someone will discover the true situation of Shinomiya Mikoto. There is no wall that is impenetrable.
“Oh…” It was obvious that Ito Kabuto still looked a little skeptical.
Fortunately, the class started, so their topic ended. Then when the get out of class was over, Songgang Dong changed the subject. Finally, he gave up when he saw that he couldn’t get anything out of him.
Maybe because of the midterm exam, all the students started to study hard. Although there was still a lot of time, this was Haicheng High School and no one wanted to fall behind.
Of course, there are also many guys with weak awareness who don’t care much and still live freely as they please. However, if they are not geniuses, the final results will probably teach them a lesson.
“There’s a lot going on lately, and there will be even more in the future, so I plan to take this opportunity to finish the rest of my schoolwork in advance,” Matsuoka Dong said to Shinomiya and Saori after school.
“So what are you going to do?” asked Sigong.
“Let’s go to the library. There are more reference books there,” suggested Song Gangdong.
Saori said happily, “Then you can wait for me to finish the club activities and leave together.”
Shinomiya Mikoto thought about it and nodded in agreement: “This is indeed better.”
Then the three of them separated, Sigong and Songgang went to the library. The library in Haicheng was very large and had a very complete collection of books, thanks to the donation from a second-generation parent.
