Chapter 593 Pride
Masayoshi Kishimoto himself stood in the front courtyard of the Kiraku Premium Japanese Cuisine Pavilion waiting for Maki Iwasaki’s arrival. It was the first time not only the owner’s wife, but also Yamada Mirai, had seen him do this.
In the past, either the others waited for him or he arrived first and just ate and drank up inside the booth. For those who had dealt with him for a long time, it was easy to see the importance and status of the visitor in his mind.
The boss’s wife and the others were in high spirits, wanting to see who the visitor was. This was able to make the Hard Gold Plutocrat personally conduct a greeting.
In the midst of the crowd’s eager anticipation, Iwasaki Maki’s car pulled up outside the front door of the Hi-Lo Senior Japanese Cuisine Pavilion, and her driver skillfully got out of the car and opened the backseat door for her young lady.
Iwasaki Maki, even if it was her first time in this place, did not feel rushed at all, after all, she was a woman who had seen a lot of things since she was a child.
Her steps were unhurried, and she walked inward without looking away, and once she saw Masayoshi Kishimoto waiting in front of her, she smiled slightly and said, “I’ve kept you waiting.”
Kishimoto Masayoshi took the initiative to act as a guide, quite a gentlemanly right hand raised and said, “If you’re there. Go this way.”
Iwasaki Maki followed him and headed inward. As for what the others thought of her, it didn’t matter at all. True to the saying, does a lion care what the sheep think of it?
After Masayoshi Kishimoto led her into the private room, the two of them were seated face to face. The owner’s wife hurriedly ordered her own people to be the ones to serve the food.
She only asked the waitress to bring the dishes to the entrance of the private room, and then she took the dishes from the other person’s hands and personally brought them in, placing them on the large table between Masayoshi Kishimoto and Maki Iwasaki.
At this time, the people standing at the entrance of the private room, besides her alone, were Iwasaki Maki’s chauffeur and personal maid, as well as Kishimoto Masayoshi’s head of the secretary’s office, Yamada Mirai, and others.
In this way, the possibility of others trying to eavesdrop on the conversation inside from outside the fan door was completely eliminated from existing. A meeting between two heavyweights in a country naturally wouldn’t just be about eating, chatting, talking about the weather, and other unimportant things. There must be something important to discuss between them.
When the food was almost served, Masayoshi Kishimoto calmly said to the boss’s wife, who personally greeted them, “That’s enough, we’ll serve it later.”
The boss’s wife understood, and before she walked out, she couldn’t help but take a few more glances at Iwasaki Maki, a lovely person. She did not fail to lament in her heart that the same were both women, how could the difference be so great?
After the door was closed by her, Kishimoto Masayoshi looked towards Iwasaki Maki who was sitting opposite her and said, “These are the signature dishes of this restaurant, I wonder if they suit your taste?”
Iwasaki Maki didn’t come here for food, but for money, “I won’t say anything polite to you. Nowadays, I am in dire need of money.”
Masayoshi Kishimoto for the expected thing is already prepared mentally, also do not ask her to use the original reason for the money said: “How much do you need?”
“3.5 billion dollars.” Iwasaki Maki blurted out.
Masayoshi Kishimoto did not even hesitate for a moment, and succinctly said, “Good.”
Iwasaki Maki was a little surprised that he agreed to himself so quickly, and said, “Don’t get it wrong. I’m talking about 3.5 billion dollars, not 3.5 billion yen.”
“This one title of the Iwasaki Family’s principal young lady is also more than 3.5 billion dollars!” Masayoshi Kishimoto said with a knowing smile.
“If you weren’t married, I would even suspect that you have suspicions of currying favor with me in there. You’re married, so what’s this for?” Iwasaki Maki winked at him and said.
“There are many members of your Iwasaki family. Several of them hold ample resources in their hands. Whether it’s the entire Japanese financial world or the business world, or foreign merchants, entrepreneurs, investors …… who want to get to know members of your Iwasaki family are as many as there are.
I don’t know any of them well, but I know you the best. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not asking you to act as an introducer to the rest of the Iwasaki family.
Not only that, I don’t need you to introduce me to any of the other five Zaibatsu. Because one day, I will become the seventh largest Zaibatsu after the six largest Zaibatsu in Japan, separating and equalizing with you.” Masayoshi Kishimoto made his attitude clear and said.
Iwasaki Maki did not feel at all that he was talking big in front of himself. The fact that Masayoshi Kishimoto was able to establish the Hard Gold Group in just a few short years was already something remarkable.
As of now, the Hard Gold Group’s asset scale was far from being comparable to that of the six major plutocrats, but its momentum of development could not be underestimated. After all, the development history of the six major plutocrats are at least more than a century.
Otherwise, her own father would not have been particularly optimistic about him, and then wanted to recruit him within the walls of the Iwasaki family. She knew her dad very well. The idea of accepting a student was really rare.
Seeing that she neither smiled nor spoke, Masashi Kishimoto added, “I’m still not mature enough to be frivolous.”
Iwasaki Masashi shook her head a bit and said, “Your ambition is truly extraordinary.”
“You’re really being fallacious.” Masashi Kishimoto said bluntly.
“There is no merit in it. I won’t accept this 3.5 billion dollars in cash from you for nothing either. This should be what you want!”
Iwasaki Maki said and took out a long-prepared document from a large handbag placed at the side of his body and handed it over.
Masayoshi Kishimoto received it with both hands, and after a quick glance, it was indeed what he had been longing for, the Hard Gold Media share transfer contract.
He didn’t have any pretense, and said frankly, “The one who knows me, Maki.”
“According to reason, this is the lottery in our original five-year betting agreement. Now, I took it out to make a deal, but it’s me who broke my promise.
However, after I get through this current difficulty, I will replace it with something else of equal value in the future. The betting agreement between us for a period of five years is is still valid.” Maki Iwasaki said seriously.
For this reason, Masashi Kishimoto had actually seen that she looked a bit soft on the surface, but in her bones she could be very strong. She was still insisting that she was right and would definitely be able to win against him.
This should be the blue-blooded aristocrat’s real pride, not the kind of society above the old man, as long as I do not let me pay out more money, face can be completely do not want.
Said words, can also be as fart. Dignity and so on, how much money a catty? Completely is a face of the marketplace scoundrels, but it is suitable for wanting to make money, you have to be shameless, do not want the theory of skin.
“If you have to insist, I completely respect your choice.” Justice Kishimoto said in a serious manner.
