At the long table, everyone sat in two rows.

At such a long table, the seat furthest from the door is the seat.

As soon as he entered the door, Iwasaki Ryunosuke said: "Everyone, I will entertain you today. I will sit here."

After saying that, he stood next to the next seat, stopped talking, and looked at Tao Zhiming instead.

"Whether it's based on financial resources or age, this position should be mine." Tao Zhiming stood next to him with a smile.

Kitaro Watanabe was delighted: "Are the seats arranged according to age or financial resources?"

Tao Zhiming was not sure for a moment whether he was really confused, whether he was confused, or whether he was just pretending.

Is it possible that he still wants to sit in the upper seat?

"Since Iwasaki-san insists on entertaining, I will sit next to you." Tao Zhiming winked at him, "Iwasaki-san must have some thoughts on how to arrange the seats, right?"

If they are people in the same organization, their superiority and inferiority will be very clear.

But now, everyone is a master, and each has a complicated identity. Tao Zhiming also wants to see how Iwasaki Ryunosuke handles this situation.

Iwasaki Ryunosuke glanced at Tao Zhiming with a smile, and then said: "The so-called financial resources, as Yoshimoto-kun and President Tsutsumi said, everyone has more or less hidden wealth, right? Since today is a gathering of friends, why not

How about sitting according to age, as Watanabe-san said?"

Kitaro Watanabe did not expect that he would really suggest such an arrangement, and quickly said: "Of course Itoyama-san should sit in the seat of honor. I was joking like that because I am happy to meet you all."

Tao Zhiming secretly noticed that when Ryunosuke Iwasaki said this arrangement, Eitaro Itoyama really didn't feel any displeasure.

Of course, he is very good at business, started his career as a secretary in politics, and has a good temperament, so I guess Tao Zhiming is not bad at all.

At this time, Eitaro Itoyama actually said: "Tao Jun and I have similar interests, so I'll sit here. It's convenient for me to talk to Tao Jun."

After saying that, he took the lead and sat down calmly, opposite Tao Zhiming.

The seat was toward the back, but he was the first to sit down.

Therefore, Iwasaki Ryunosuke's position seemed to be that of the top one.

Seeing Eitaro Itoyama casually finding a seat to sit, the others were not polite, especially Yoshiaki Tsutsumi who took the opportunity to sit next to Eitaro Itoyama, while Hidetaka Kinoshita and Zenue Anzai naturally sat next to Tao Zhiming.

Sat down.

On the contrary, the normal "top seat" was really left to Kitaro Watanabe in the end.

Tao Zhiming felt quite emotional after just taking a seat.

Ryunosuke Iwasaki took the lead in finding a suitable identity and gave others face, and then relied on others' words and Eitaro Itoyama's seemingly free and easy "cooperation" to avoid forcing the order and giving everyone a ranking.

trouble.

Everything happened naturally, except Kitaro Watanabe, who was sitting over there. Although his face was still smiling, his eyes were a little embarrassed.

Tao Zhiming knew clearly, it seemed that the old guy was just faking it.

Of course he knew he didn't deserve to sit in that position.

Neon's formal dining table is all set up for separate meals.

The room full of geishas began to pour wine and pass the dishes to the guests they were serving.

At one end of the room, leading to the courtyard, a geisha strummed the shamisen while another geisha danced slowly beside her.

Ryunosuke Iwasaki was the first to speak: "Itoyama-san, before you arrived, everyone was talking about how this table today seems to be a gathering of the neon rich people on the newly released global rich list. This statement is very interesting.

So today, everyone will not care about your other status in the parliament, please don’t mind it.”

"I see, it's really interesting." Eitaro Itoyama raised his head and smiled boldly, "It should be so, eating like this makes you relax."

As he spoke, he actually hugged the geisha next to him, and then said loudly: "Let me see... Ah, the combined assets of all of you here today should be more than 20 trillion yen, right? It's really a rare event.

King! Think about it being discussed in Congress before

The total amount of emergency economic measures is only 6 trillion yen! It is a measure that is expected to cope with the appreciation of the neon yen and make the neon economy more prosperous. Now it seems that as long as everyone here works together,

The effect may be even better.”

The total net worth of the guests at the table is in the hundreds of billions of dollars. This statement does sound impressive. However, in fact, the weight of these people is not as great as it was when Kuranosuke Iwasaki was the head of the group.

The three major consortiums and all the core family heads are here.

Together, they can be said to dominate the wealth of the entire neon industry.

Now that the geishas in the room had entered the role of serving the guests around them, they warmly expressed their admiration and admiration at the right time.

The man named Sheng Nai beside Tao Zhiming smiled lightly and said, "Master Tao is really awesome."

"Oh? You know me?"

"Tao Jun, Jinlong's geishas, ​​in addition to practicing singing and dancing, also often go outside to learn about current affairs." Eitaro Itoyama, who was opposite, joked, "Among us, you are the most famous, there is no doubt about it.

.”

Tao Zhiming was appropriately embarrassed: "...I'm ashamed. It seems that I can no longer be as flamboyant as I used to be when I was young."

Everyone was stunned for a moment when he said this, and then they laughed with different expressions.

"What should we do... Even he started to say things like 'when I was young'." Eitaro Itoyama picked up the wine glass, "Everyone, let's start together. Then Tao Jun will start and explain how to do it.

After all, this can be considered a small punishment, and it will bring some gains to our injured hearts, right?"

Tao Zhiming replied with a smile: "If you are injured, aren't there lovely girls around you? If you chat happily with them, you will feel youthful again!"

There was laughter and laughter everywhere for a while, with Itoyama Eitaro's charming and unrestrained person at the forefront, and others seemed not to shy away from it either.

Anyway, both of them knew well before that as long as they were willing, countless women would throw themselves into their arms. Being intimate here was just "elegance".

Throughout the dinner, we just chatted like this, with no mention of matters related to Tokyo Fukuoka.

Tao Zhiming discovered that Ryunosuke Iwasaki and Eitaro Itoyama always drew everyone's attention to him intentionally or unintentionally.

Although it was said that Eitaro Itoyama was exchanging his experience in running golf courses in his early years with him, he still mentioned to some extent that he had plans to build golf courses in Hokkaido, Tokyo, and Osaka.

Then when he talked about yachts, he naturally also mentioned the yacht home port he wanted to build.

All in all, it hints at the fact that Tao Zhiming is about to spend a lot of money to pursue these projects in real money.

It immediately attracted Haruhiko Yoshimoto and others who were not familiar with him before, and they also proposed the idea of ​​​​cooperating together if possible.

Tao Zhiming responded: "I am afraid that the money I earned through luck in the financial market will not be well guarded, so I spread it across many industries. Unlike you who have many talented subordinates, I am now spread out.

There are too many businesses, and the risks may be too great.

Let me shoulder these responsibilities alone first! If I lose money, I can probably grow a little, and I can hold on to a smaller amount of wealth with more peace of mind. If I can stably carve out my own foundation in a certain area, I will be able to expand when the time comes.

I leave the management to you all, so please don’t refuse.”

All the old foxes at the table, except those who had been familiar with him for a long time, couldn't help but marvel at him.

He is very skilled in conversation and response, and his posture is just right. It is really hard to imagine that he is just a 24-year-old young man.

The one with the most special mood here is the geisha Katsuna next to Tao Zhiming. Is this the Tao Dalang who is famous in Tokyo?

From her perspective, most of what she could see was his tall and handsome profile, and the smile that never fell from the corners of his lips.

Among the youngest people at the table who may be over forty years old, he is an outlier. But if you close your eyes and just listen to his voice, he fits in perfectly with the atmosphere in the room.

Seeing that his glass was empty, Katsuna immediately took the wine bottle and helped him fill it again.

Tao Zhiming was secretly wondering whether they really wanted his help in the future, or whether they were setting a trap for themselves.

As they chatted, these rich people naturally collided with each other about what projects to invest in and where to cooperate.

I have seen a lot of these Tao Zhimings. If I went to any coffee shop back then, I could always hear various people talking about projects. A few grown men talking about hundreds of millions of dollars in business, it sounded weird.

Now, these discussions are naturally not accurate. After drinking wine at the dinner table, hello, me, we are better together. After leaving this door, the phone call may be: "I said this last night? Oops, I was drunk at the time.

…”

So Tao Zhiming expressed his expectations casually.

Could it be that this trap is to flatter yourself so that your investment becomes larger and larger, and eventually there is a problem with the capital chain?

If you think about it carefully, this is indeed the best way to deal with him now.

If you put yourself in a dangerous situation where the capital chain is always tight, then you will have room for planning.

This was the same problem that Kinoshita Hidefeng had worried about during the day, so now that he heard Tao Zhiming casually agree, he couldn't help but look at Tao Zhiming a few more times.

Fortunately, it is impossible to chat like this forever. When many people's faces were already red, Iwasaki Ryunosuke said: "Let the girls prepare hot towels for you to wipe your faces later?"

This is where the real drama begins.

Even though we were in a restaurant known for its secrecy, some discussions and plans were still not discussed in front of the geishas.

Katsuna knelt on the ground, took two steps back, and said softly: "Master Tao, please wait a moment."

Tao Zhiming looked over and saw that she had just raised her head, looked at him deeply with watery eyes, then lowered her head and stood up, and went out with the other sisters.

"Mr. Tao?" Ryunosuke Iwasaki seemed to think that Tao Zhiming was paying attention to this girl. He called him with a playful smile, and then said, "The ideas we just briefly exchanged are actually based on the ideas we all share.

Knowing that big thing, does Tao Jun still have the energy to invest in other projects?"

"Of course I am willing to catch a ride with you seniors." Tao Zhiming sighed helplessly, "Of course, this also depends on how the subsequent plan unfolds. Iwasaki-san, since you are the one who invited everyone
