At present, Takehiko Ito, who has lost his legs, has announced his retirement early and has handed over the actual control of the Ito family to his daughter Nanako Ito.
However, he did not immediately become a hands-off shopkeeper.
Instead, he has changed from the former patriarch of the Ito family to the current staff behind Ito Nanako, providing his daughter with some judgment and resource help.
But Nanako Ito is very capable at work, so most of the time he, as a staff member, is actually idle at home.
At this time, he was playing with some Japanese potted plants in his yard in Tokyo with his loyal servant Tanaka.
A servant suddenly ran in with a panic expression and blurted out: "Master, the eldest lady suddenly summoned the four major ninja families and asked all the ninjas from the four major ninja families to gather at Narita Airport tonight and fly to China!"
"What?!" Takehiko Ito was dumbfounded and asked with surprise: "Why did Nanako suddenly summon so many ninjas to China?"
"I don't know either..." The servant said in a panic: "The total number of ninjas from the four major families is at least a hundred. I don't know why the eldest lady wants to go to war in such a big way, so I will inform you quickly.
..."
Tanaka Koichi, who was on the side, was also shocked and said: "President, would you like to call the eldest lady and ask her? It is really unusual for her to suddenly summon so many ninjas..."
Takehiko Ito said: "Tanaka, I am no longer the president. I will change my title in the future."
After saying that, he added: "The current president is Nanako. All matters of the Ito family and all external available resources should be decided by her alone. In theory, if she doesn't take the initiative to tell me about this matter, I won't
You should ask."
Tanaka Hiroshi nodded and said: "What you said is correct, but...but this matter is too unusual. If there is no major event, the eldest lady will never call the ninja, and it is still
All the ninjas from the four major ninja families are called at once. If you don't control it well, big trouble can easily happen..."
Takehiko Ito sighed and said: "I have handed over the position of general to Nanako. In theory, I must trust her unconditionally and support and respect every decision she makes. The new king will succeed and the old king will take charge of politics.
, has always been the starting point for the collapse of internal affairs. The Ito family has been able to reach this day, and every president of the Ito family has tried their best to avoid such a thing from happening, and I cannot set this precedent."
Tanaka Koichi hesitated for a moment, nodded and said: "I understand what you mean..."
Takehiko Ito nodded slightly and told the servant who came to report the news: "Go and do your work. Don't tell anyone about this matter."
The servant immediately bowed deeply and shouted respectfully: "Hi!"
After saying that, he quickly turned around and left.
Takehiko Ito continued to play with the potted plant in his hand, but found that Tanaka Koichi next to him seemed very absent-minded, so he put down the potted plant in his hand and said calmly: "Tanaka, trust Nanako, she will not do anything irresponsible rashly.
Decide."
Tanaka Koichi said with shame: "You are right, my subordinates should not worry too much..."
Takehiko Ito nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Okay, these landscaping pots will be finished today, so hurry up!"
"Hi!"
At this moment, Nanako Ito walked in quickly and anxiously. Seeing Takehiko Ito and Koichi Tanaka playing with potted plants in the yard, she immediately stepped forward, bowed and said: "Father! Nanako just did not give your permission without your consent.
, summoned all the ninjas from the four major families, please forgive me!"
Takehiko Ito smiled and said: "Nanako, you are the president of the Ito family. You do not need my approval to make any decision."
