Chapter 810 Custody
Kishimoto Masayoshi saw that Sakai Rie, who was sitting across from him, didn’t say anything, so he also stopped talking. The room immediately fell into silence.
A thought flashed through his head, Sakai Rie was not Natsui Makoto after all. Natsui Makoto was from a bitter child’s background and had worked part-time since her first year of school.
When she became her own woman, with herself, she was not even twenty years old, but she had worked dozens of jobs before and after.
According to her original words, she had completely lost track of how many kinds of jobs she had done in total, and dozens of jobs were still there. This shows how hard and uncomplicated her life has been.
In Japan, almost everyone wants to become a full-fledged employee, even if it’s a full-fledged employee of a small company. Not for any other reason, they want to have a formal job to ensure the stability of their life.
The difference between a formal job and a part-time job lies in the fact that a formal job has various kinds of social insurance. Part-time jobs can also have insurance, but employers usually do not provide it for them.
Wage earners won’t want it either, after all, it’s too mobile. One day they work here, and the next day they work somewhere else.
In Japan today, the ratio of formal to non-formal employment is 6:4, and as time goes on, the ratio of formal to non-formal employment will be closer to 5:5, and in Korea, it will be even more frightening, with non-formal employment far outweighing formal employment.
That’s why Koreans laugh at themselves as if they were in Hell Korea or Hell North Korea. This kind of self-deprecation is even more horrifying than the Japanese self-deprecation of social animals, after all, is that the suicide rate of the former is higher than that of the latter every year.
This means that the number of formally employed people is decreasing. The reason why companies will reduce the number of formally employed people lies in the fact that they can reduce labor costs.
Businesses don’t have to pay a series of necessary social insurance for informally employed people. Even if they are fired, they don’t have to make a necessary compensation.
Living on more than 100,000 yen a month in a place like Tokyo, one person can barely make ends meet, let alone raise another child.
They are the only ones who can understand the hardships of the social animals at the bottom of a small company. It is common for them to eat only one rice ball or drink the company’s free coffee at lunch or bring their own lunchboxes …… in order to have the necessary social activities.
In some cases, they only eat two or even one meal a day. This is unimaginable in Japan, one of the developed capitalist countries.
The problem lies in the fact that it really exists, and it’s not some rare isolated phenomenon. All the goodness inside the news reports will always give the people at the bottom a feeling of asking themselves, “Why have I been left out of that wonderful world inside the news reports?
This shows that governments and media all over the world are the same. Ordinary grassroots people from small localities go to Beijing to work, neither relying on the financial support of their parents nor being able to find any high-paying jobs.
In order to survive in this international metropolis, they can only find ways to save money.
Everything that was not necessary was saved. The more the Japanese economy slumps, the more young people are afraid to fall in love.
Even if two young people fall in love, they can only go in and out of ordinary restaurants. As for high-class restaurants, a single meal for two people can easily cost them a month’s rent. Who would want to do that?
Even if they got married, they didn’t dare to have children. As a result, Japan’s childlessness has naturally increased.
The idea that a Japanese salaryman can casually earn 300,000 yen a month is pure bullshit. That 300,000 yen is not that easy to earn.
Long hours of overtime are the norm for these people. Otherwise, it’s just heavy manual labor. The average person gets around 200,000 yen a month.
The true reality of the average Japanese person’s life would not be the same as the Japanese women who are satisfied with an annual income of three or four million yen and being able to be taken on one or two domestic trips a year by their husbands.
Rie Sakai had never had the personal experience of scrimping and saving, especially after she arrived in Tokyo to study at the university, and was brainwashed with all sorts of unrealistic things, both consciously and unconsciously.
Just like the ordinary college students in China in the latter days, the simple idea that it was not difficult to find a job for five or six thousand dollars a month after graduation was the same.
At a discount, it is the harsh reality that it is not difficult to find a job that costs 2,000 or 3,000 dollars a month. There is no shortage of double-lost youth, unemployed upon graduation and out of school as well.
“Why don’t you say something? Don’t think for a moment that I will leave Naoki in your hands to be raised. In the future, you will absolutely remarry. What if my stepmother treats my son badly?” Sakai Rie broke the silence and said.
“Not necessarily you will really not remarry? You’re only in your twenties, so young.” Justice Kishimoto blurted out.
“You can definitely rest assured that not only will I not remarry, but I will also not look for another man. There isn’t a single good thing in you men. You are the worst one.
I’ve already been cheated by you once, if I were to be cheated again by another man, wouldn’t I, Sakai Rie, be an unadulterated fool?” Sakai Rie said indignantly.
Masayoshi Kishimoto understood that his current self was a complete asshole in her mind. No matter how much he defended himself, he couldn’t change the image of himself as a big asshole in her mind.
“Money, I can give you some more without any harm. However, the custody of the son in question, I will not give it to you.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said seriously.
“Money, I don’t want yours. Even the portion of property that you should give me, or even the alimony on a legal level, I don’t want any of it. I only want my son.” Sakai Rie said with a resolute attitude.
“The problem is, even if I give you custody of my son, what will you use to support him and yourself? Furthermore, what about your son’s future education?” Masayoshi Kishimoto said in a serious manner.
“That’s not for you to worry about.” Sakai Rie coldly said.
Kishimoto Masayoshi saw her in this unyielding and uncompromising stance, causing the two to reach an impasse once again. Of course, he could easily get custody of his son through legal means.
However, he was afraid of seeing Rie Sakai engage in a particularly extreme behavior. One day, when Naoki grew up, he would know about the feud between himself and his mother.
If he decided that he had forced Rie Sakai or Maki Iwasaki to kill his mother, it was possible that the Kishimoto family would be caught up in that kind of rich family revenge drama. That was the last thing he wanted to see.
Suddenly, Sakai Rie felt sick to her stomach, covered her mouth with her right palm, stood up abruptly and ran towards the bathroom. Afterwards, she lowered her head, aimed at the sink and began to vomit.
