Masayoshi Kishimoto slept until five in the afternoon, the sun was about to set before he opened his eyes. As he counted on his fingers, he had only slept for about four hours. However, it was completely enough.

Masayoshi Kishimoto uncovered the covers on his body and got up. Before going out, he naturally needed to shower and change his clothes. It was still early in the evening for his own part-time job at the convenience store, so he agreed to attend the monthly gathering of the Scrappers.

He hadn’t seen for himself what a gathering of scrappers was really like, so his interest grew. In fact, the 5th of every month, the day they received their dole, became their regular party day.

After another half an hour, Masayoshi Kishimoto walked out of the house and headed straight for a certain place where the scrappers rented. Why didn’t they choose a place like an izakaya or a water bar?

Because on the one hand, fags are generally socially phobic and afraid to have too much contact with the outside world, and on the other hand, they are so shy that they only rely on the 100,000 yen monthly allowance to maintain a tight life, and even before the day of receiving the allowance, there will be a few days of food and water cut off, no electricity, no gas, no internet.

The topics they talk about are only understood by those inside the circle. As for people outside the circle heard, will only be filled with contempt for its meaning, after all, eat the dole also eat the rightful, do not know the word shame.

Not to mention that just a few days ago, Masayoshi Kishimoto had also learned about this kind of life where even the most basic survival was difficult to maintain. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have used the insulting word “faggot” to say it.

Not having much money, he was at best a loser. The biggest difference between a loser and a faggot was that the former still knew how to go out and work for money.

Masayoshi Kishimoto had a good half hour’s walk to get to the place. Shortly after he rang the old doorbell, the owner opened the door and said, “Everyone’s here, just waiting for you.”

Masayoshi Kishimoto didn’t say anything as he walked in and changed his shoes. Although his place was a bit more remote and older than where he lived, it was a large place, thirty to forty square meters.

It was because of the large size of this place that it was chosen to be a regular monthly meeting place for the scrappers. There was some food and cheap alcohol that was placed on the four-sided table.

When Masayoshi Kishimoto found a seat and sat down, someone took the initiative to deliver a whiskey glass containing a vintage-free Ballantine’s to him.

“A dole of 100,000 yen a month is just too little to get me by.” Scrapper A blurted out.

“We’re at the bottom of the social ladder, and we can’t get any worse. We need to change, we need to start a business.” Scrappy B suddenly stood up, emotionally excited and grandiose, and said.

“Starting a business? That’s a good idea.” Scrap Master was nodding with a smile.

Justice Kishimoto suddenly spoke up, “Since it’s entrepreneurship, what about choosing to go into that line of work?”

He regretted it as soon as the words left his mouth. He and the faggots could not talk about this at all! In this country, Japan is not a fertile ground for entrepreneurship, after all, Japan has already passed the best period of economic start-up.

Really want to start a business, then the best fertile ground is in mainland China, two is in India, Vietnam and other countries. The first step to start a business is to have a good project and the beginning, followed by the problem of capital.

Currently, Japan has already entered a stage of big capital operation and exporting capital overseas. In addition, the Japanese are a people who can do things in a very detailed way.

Even if it is a very small thing, there are people who have occupied the market first. This leaves fewer and fewer gaps in the country’s market.

Not being one step ahead of others means that it is difficult to obtain high profits. Running behind others, if there is no innovation and breakthrough, then all that is picked up is thrown away, and all the money earned is hard money.

“Kishimoto, don’t get too excited. This one thing well! We can take our time to think about it. We have plenty of time. As for today, let’s get drunk first.”

While unscrewing the cap of the bottle of the non-vintage Ballantine’s Whisky, Scum B also took the initiative to refill Masayoshi Kishimoto’s glass with alcohol.

In his previous life, Masayoshi Kishimoto had drank this kind of uncharacteristic whiskey when he was still a Chinese university student.

At that time, the pockets of Chinese college students were not very rich. Even if a portion of them had gotten rich first, they were not rich enough to reach the majority of the Chinese people.

Therefore, the classmates who were on good terms with themselves, who were able to hang out together from time to time, and who were also able to go to the small bar next to the university once in a while, although their family conditions were not considered poor, they were just a middle-class family.

Of course, in 2004 in mainland China, the word middle class has not been popularized as in later years. According to the Chinese definition of middle class, it is more appropriate to be a well-off family.

Plus, he was attending the best old loser university in the biggest city in the southwest, so he had to keep up with the trend. Really, if you’re a poor student, going to a small bar? That was a no-no.

In their minds it’s a shame to spend mom and dad’s hard-earned money. Even shouting a little bit, let a person difficult, for fear of touching its humble and sensitive self-esteem.

Ballantine’s is a famous brand of whisky. No vintage Ballantine’s is a few dozen yuan a bottle of 700ML, or in the bar that kind of place doubled a good N times sold out.

The mainstay of nightclubs at the time was Black Square or Black Label Scotch Blended Whisky, one of the best-selling brands exported from the UK until later times.

Black Square was served with six soft drinks, either iced tea or green tea. Otherwise, it is a soda, directly sold a 588, 688, or even 888. the next is the red square or red card, which is different depending on the nightclub decoration and sound and light.

A lot of people hang on their mouths to brag about how good the black square is, but also with the soft drink hooked up to drink. It smells faintly of flowers and fruits and has a smoky flavor when you drink it.

How much would it cost to drink it straight and pure? Everyone is a so-called poor student, all AA. Even if you want to play hard to get, there is no campus loan, chanting or anything to borrow.

Generally it is beer, the poorer is the domestic Tsingtao, Harbin beer, the better is only Budweiser, Carlsberg. If you want to pretend to be a pussy, it’s just the Great Wall, Zhang Yu’s red wine.

Even if you want to drink whiskey, it is also Jumbo no year and Ballantine’s no year this poor blended whiskey. However, at that time, it was already a very foreign thing. Going to a bar and having a good time, that was also fashionable and avant-garde.

Being a bit of a fresher amongst the whisky genre myself, I’ve always loved the Japanese whiskies of single malt Shirakushu, Yamazaki, and blended whisky Rattle. These are all well-known brands under the Suntory Group, which are also considered high-end brands among whiskies.

As for Scotch whisky, myself like the Shirley Cask’s Bud Macallan single malt whisky. Of course, a little freshness like himself was always despised by people who liked pure peat-flavored Scotch whisky.

Holding the Ballantine’s Unvintage Whisky contained in the glass in his hand, Masayoshi Kishimoto instantly had a touch of the previous previous life.

Even if the drink was not good at that time, it was true that it was genuinely happy and enjoyable. Even if I drank more expensive and better liquors later, I didn’t have the same feeling of happiness that I had in the past. Money can buy happiness, not necessarily.
