Chapter 443: 0444 gives you money and girls
Sato Tsuru watched the girl before him, a young woman in her early twenties who surprisingly managed Longjia so well-organized. For a girl who hadn’t yet graduated from college, this was no easy feat.
Sato Tsuru was only momentarily lost in thought. In Japan, there were many young business prodigies like Shen Mengchen, so he quickly stopped pondering this question. His gaze shifted away from Shen Mengchen and looked around, only to be disappointed that Ye Qiu was nowhere to be seen, except for old Mr. Liu standing by himself.
"May I know what Mr. Sato intends with his visit to Longjia?" Shen Mengchen spoke up, breaking the silence.
A slight smile appeared on Sato’s face. Shen Mengchen’s presence seemed strong, but it still couldn’t affect Sato Tsuru. As a veteran of countless business battles, he was not intimidated by a young girl; he merely found her interesting.
Not seeing Ye Qiu, it wouldn’t be bad to study Shen Mengchen more closely.
"Director Shen surely speaks her mind quickly, just like her father. No wonder Longjia Group can maintain its former glory under your leadership. The title of ’Hua Mulan of the business world’ is well-deserved."
"Mr. Sato flatters me. The strength of Yamato Corporation in the business sector of Zhongshan City isn’t any lesser than Longjia. What brings you here specially this time?" Shen Mengchen brought the conversation back to the point.
"Ahem..." Sato Tsuru coughed and said, "Well, since Director Shen has put it that way, I’ll speak frankly. I’m actually here to see Mr. Ye Qiu today."
"Looking for Ye Qiu?" Shen Mengchen visibly paused. Why would Sato Tsuru want to find Ye Qiu? They didn’t seem to have any connection.
"I believe Director Shen should be able to contact Ye Qiu. Could you relay a message for me? Tell him I’ll be waiting for him at Haoshang Ju at seven o’clock tonight." After finishing his words, Sato Tsuru stood up, walked to the door, and left one more instruction: "I hope Director Shen will not forget my request." With that, he left the office.
As the brief meeting came to an end, Shen Mengchen’s mind was still occupied with why Sato Tsuru wanted to find Ye Qiu, what was he up to?
But Mr. Liu wasn’t worried: "Miss, this Sato Tsuru has targeted Longjia several times before. He could be considered the first to wish for Longjia’s downfall. I thought he came today for the affairs of both conglomerates, but it turns out he was just looking for Young Master Ye."
"In fact, Miss doesn’t have to worry about Young Master Ye. With his skills, this Mr. Sato Tsuru shouldn’t be able to hurt him." Mr. Liu thought Shen Mengchen was concerned about Ye Qiu’s safety and reassured her.
Shen Mengchen hadn’t thought of this at first, but Mr. Liu’s words struck her like a revelation, prompting her to guess Sato Tsuru’s real intention.
"Could it be because Longjia is able to continue expanding into external markets?"
"He’s looking for Ye Qiu instead of me, could it be that he’s seen through Ye Qiu’s involvement in all of this?"
Shen Mengchen was no longer a little girl. During her time at Longjia, she had learned to consider things from multiple angles. After speculating on several reasons for Sato Tsuru’s visit, she felt this possibility was the most likely.
If Longjia could continue its collaboration and development with the Shangguan family, it would inevitably grow stronger. Once Longjia gained strength, it would have more say in the business world of Zhongshan City. The last thing Yamato Corporation—and possibly Rongda—would want to see is that.
In an instant, Shen Mengchen thought of many things. However, she didn’t plan to hide this from Ye Qiu and promptly called him to relay that Sato Tsuru wanted to see him, sharing her own guesses about the possibilities with Ye Qiu so he could be prepared.
A man from the island country wants to meet me? And it’s a grown man at that!
Ye Qiu wasn’t particularly interested, but since the man had approached Shen Mengchen, Ye Qiu had to take it seriously, especially since Sato Tsuru was no ordinary person. Ye Qiu worried that he might mean harm to Shen Mengchen.
Even though he was reluctant to meet this man from the island country, Ye Qiu still headed to the agreed location.
Haoshang Ju was a famous restaurant. At six or seven in the evening, it was the busiest time. Ye Qiu arrived at the designated private room.
As soon as he entered, he saw a face with Japanese features. This person was Sato Tsuru, the Japanese man who had invited him?
"Are you Mr. Ye Qiu, Sir?" When Ye Qiu walked in, with a composed countenance, Sato Tsuru guessed that this person must be Ye Qiu, but still couldn’t help asking, because Ye Qiu was even younger than he had imagined.
"Yes, it’s me. What do you want?" Ye Qiu’s tone was almost the same as Shen Mengchen’s—straight to the point, he asked directly.
Sato Tsuru felt a bit awkward and mused to himself, why are these young people in Huaxia so straightforward, unlike others? In Sato Tsuru’s mind, his perception of Huaxia people seemed to be breaking down a little.
"Come, come, Mr. Ye Qiu, why the rush? Let’s sit down and talk leisurely," Sato Tsuru changed his expression, smiled broadly, and proactively pulled out a chair for Ye Qiu.
Seeing this, Ye Qiu found it amusing but he wasn’t in a hurry either, he sat down boldly, wanting to see what Sato Tsuru was really scheming.
During the meal and drinks, Sato Tsuru didn’t talk about anything related to Ye Qiu, instead he started talking about historical figures from Huaxia. Ye Qiu was slightly surprised at how thoroughly Sato Tsuru understood Huaxia history. His casual references indicated he had certainly studied it in detail, perhaps even surpassing the understanding that many Huaxia people have of their own national history and culture.
The fact that a person from an island nation was so familiar with Huaxia history proved he was very diligent, a true expert on Huaxia. But if one thought about it from another angle, it was a bit frightening; some of Huaxia’s culture was being forgotten by the natives but was on the rise in other countries. For a moment, Ye Qiu saw Sato Tsuru in a new light.
With the conversation reaching this point and still no sign of Sato Tsuru stating his real purpose, Ye Qiu grew impatient. This guy had studied Huaxia history so thoroughly, yet he didn’t seem like a good person. On the contrary, Ye Qiu felt from Sato Tsuru a scent of hidden, strong ambition bone-deep.
It was a desire to own all the good things for himself. Although Sato Tsuru disguised it well, he couldn’t escape Ye Qiu’s piercing and discerning gaze.
Tired of hearing Sato Tsuru beat around the bush, Ye Qiu got straight to the point at last, "If there’s nothing else, I’ll be on my way."
Ye Qiu made to get up.
"Brother Ye Qiu, please stay a moment. Don’t you want to know why I was looking for you?"
Ye Qiu paused, looking at Sato Tsuru, waiting for what he would say next.
"Mr. Ye, I am a director of the Yamato Corporation. I know that your skills are extraordinary, so I would like to invite you to join my company. Of course, my offer will definitely be more generous than what Longjia gives. This is a bank card with five million in it. Spend it however you wish," Sato Tsuru pulled out a bank card, finally revealing his purpose.
"Five million? Heh, is that all?" Ye Qiu’s tone was mocking, as if scornful.
Sato Tsuru thought Ye Qiu found it too little, and a slight smile appeared on his face. He pointed to a girl who had been sitting silently next to him and said to Ye Qiu, "What if we add such a beauty to the offer?"
Ye Qiu glanced at the girl who hadn’t moved since his arrival and had to admit she was indeed a beauty.
"This is a lady I brought from my homeland, proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting, skilled in singing and dancing, and she’s an exquisite beauty. If Mr. Ye is interested in joining us, whether it’s money or the beauty before you, both will be yours. What do you say?" Sato Tsuru spoke temptingly.
Ye Qiu chuckled softly.
Money and beauty, a double temptation indeed. Sato Tsuru was certainly willing to invest heavily.
"How do you feel, Mr. Ye?" Sato Tsuru, seeing Ye Qiu’s gaze shifting between the bank card on the table and the woman at the side, knew he was onto something. After all, this young man was young; how could he resist such temptation?
But Ye Qiu’s next words abruptly shattered that thought.
"I’m not interested," Ye Qiu said indifferently.
