Rolled on the ground.

Ikeda Koba broke free from Nagano Nao's control.

Then he quickly grabbed his knife and placed it accurately and steadily on the drunk's neck.

A blade with a cold glow.

Cold.

Stimulate.

Nagano Nao's hair stood on end.

His eyes cleared up.

But alcohol is a good thing.

When a person gets drunk.

That is the king of heaven and the king of earth.

Wu Song dared to beat a tiger when he was drunk.

The drunk Russian dared to hit a bear.

Nagano Nao is even more awesome.

With a gleaming knife on my neck, I am not afraid at all. Instead, I find it quite interesting.

"I bet, Xiaoye, you will never kill me!" Nagano Nao said drunkenly, with a look as if he understood him very well. He smiled and pounced on her again.

Ikeda Xiaoye was so angry that her clothes were about to be torn, but she could only quickly put the knife away.

Naoto Nao laughed, his steps were unsteady, he swayed left and right, and said proudly: "I knew that you had me in your heart, Xiaoye, and you would definitely not want to kill me!"

"Baka!"

Ikeda Koba shouted angrily, her usually sterile face now showing anger.

But Nagano Nao treated the deadly weapon in her hand as nothing. The one-meter-long weapon became the biggest obstacle that restricted his movements.

kill!

Can't kill!

Scolding! It's useless! So it goes.

Ikeda Koba experienced the passive situation for the first time in her life.

He was clearly holding a knife.

But gradually he was forced into a corner.

"Nagano, you bastard, if you don't get out of here, I'll be rude to you!"

"Once, there was a beautiful girl standing in front of me. I didn't have the courage to tell her that I liked her. I didn't regret it until I missed the chance. The most painful thing in the world is to like someone but not be able to get her."

"If God gives me another chance to start over, I will say three words to that girl: I love you. If I have to put a time limit on this love, I hope it is, 10,000 years."

”

Nagano Nao's steps were unsteady, his eyes were blurred, his face was flushed, he looked infatuated, and he was talking nonsense.

Ikeda Xiaoye opened her eyes wide, unable to believe what she heard.

The truth comes out when drunk!

Being drunk to the point of saying such things.

Could it be that he really likes me?

Just stunned for a moment.

Nagano Nao pounced on him again like a tiger.

Ikeda Xiaoye only had time to put away the knife before he was pushed to the ground.

His mouth reeked of alcohol, and he was gnawing and biting everywhere, and his snake-like hands were sliding and rolling all over his body.

A strong scent of male hormones filled the air.

There is also a gentle and delicate pampering that is different from that of Sakurako Ikeda.

But my mind became confused.

When I was in the cell, I felt a call from the devil that went against my heart, and I couldn't help but want to get closer and take it.

How could I have such abnormal thoughts?

Ikeda Xiaoye's eyes suddenly became clear.

Then I saw a pair of eyes that were filled with pride.

Got fooled!!

"Nagano you bastard!"

Ikeda Xiaoye shouted angrily.

She stretched out her legs, hooked them upwards, and clamped Nagano Nao's head with her powerful legs.

With another stranglehold and somersault, she managed to break free from the control of the more than 100-pound man in an instant with her weight of more than 80 pounds, and rolled over on top.

"Don't hit my face!"

"Sister Xiaoye, don't be angry, I was just joking with you!"

“.”

After a long time.

Nagano Nao was lying on the ground with his arms and legs spread.

He was grimacing in pain all over, but he couldn't help laughing.

This woman is really tasty! Although her strength is not particularly outstanding, she is very strong and spicy!

Thinking of Ikeda Koba's rampage, Nagano Nao was overjoyed.

I guess she is too embarrassed to go back now!

Busy streets.

A female ninja dressed in black, walking down the street.

The dress full of 2D style has won the praise of many 2D fans, especially the large area of ​​exposed white skin, which has given many LSPs a hot idea in their minds.

But Ikeda Koye couldn't stand those looks. He was filled with anger and murderous intent, and wished he could kill all the SPs in front of him.

asshole!

How dare you pretend to be drunk and do this to me!

I won't let you go!

Passing by a store.

Ikeda Xiaoye suddenly stopped.

In the hazy mirror, a stunning beauty was reflected. She was dressed in black and holding a long sword. She looked like a female ninja.

If her clothes weren't torn, revealing a large area of ​​fair skin.

If it weren't for the neck and body, it would have been as if it had been gnawed by a dog, with densely packed red lip marks and even teeth marks.

How can I go back to a new day?

Nagano Naoio once again became a gentleman.

He was dressed in a well-tailored suit, looked dignified, walked with high spirits and confidence, and was a gentleman, modest and polite. There was no trace of the image of a drunk SP at all.

But I know what this guy is like when he's drunk.

Ikeda Xiaoye was so angry that her teeth were itching.

He is clearly a bastard with an evil heart, yet he packages himself as a gentleman.

JR station.

People come and go.

It's not a good place to bring a knife.

Ikeda Xiaoye changed into a commuter business suit.

When Nagano Nao saw her, he was stunned for a moment. He did not recognize at first sight that this beautiful woman dressed as a white-collar worker was Ikeda Koba who beat him up yesterday.

But it is hard to tell who suffered a loss and who gained an advantage in this fight.

Their eyes met.

One had murderous eyes, the other had a look of surprise, as if they were surprised to meet each other here.

But although my face was full of surprise, I was secretly laughing in my heart. I knew you didn't dare to go back.

Nagano Nao came over in surprise and asked knowingly, "Sister Xiaoye? Why are you here? When did you come to Kobe? Didn't Ikeda come with you?"

What?

The murderous look in Ikeda Koye's eyes turned into astonishment.

Did something happen last night that this guy has forgotten?

"Nagano, don't go too far! Do you think you can deny what you did yesterday with this reason?"

"Yesterday? I went out for a drink after a meeting yesterday. Oh! I can't remember. Sorry, Sister Xiaoye, did anything rude happen yesterday? I don't know what I did when I was drunk."

Doesn't that mean I got bitten for nothing? Nagano Nao's performance is too confusing.

Ikeda Xiaoye couldn't help but have a frustrating thought.

But looking at those innocent eyes, I couldn't tell what happened last night.

You can't just say that you went looking for someone, got pushed down, violated, got furious, hit someone, and were touched and bitten by someone!

Just at this moment.

Nagano Nao suddenly discovered a new world. He looked at Ikeda Xiaoye's neck covered by the collar and said in surprise: "Xiaoye, is your neck okay? Why does it look like a row of teeth marks from a dog bite?"

“.”

The four looked into each other's eyes.

Nagano Nao couldn't help but grin.

Ikeda Xiaoye wanted to be angry, very much wanted to be angry, but in the end, she missed the glance, turned her head away, and snorted angrily.

"How are you going to solve the young lady's problem? She is your best friend. Are you going to keep her under house arrest forever?"

"If it was Ikeda-kun who spoke to me like this, then I'm sorry, I can't do anything about it, but since you, Xiaoye-sister, have spoken, I will definitely go through fire and water for you."

“.”

Things are getting tricky.

Nagano Nao saw it clearly.

But this guy was very good at disguising himself. He laughed secretly and did not expose Ikeda Koye's self-protection.

Take the Shinkansen to the Kyoto branch.

Taking over the president's seal means that from now on you will have the final say in Kansai.

The meeting was held as usual.

The heads and directors of each branch arrived one by one.

It is not necessary for a new official to make three big moves upon taking office. On the contrary, the new president is often a grandson and has to please his subordinates.

He pretended to introduce himself, then pleaded with everyone, hoping that they would cooperate with his work in the future. When he was done, he bowed again and again.

The whole process was very low-key, very humble and insignificant.

However, no one present, whether it is the directors or the ministers, dares to act like a senior when taking responsibility.

Until today.

Everyone knows that Naoto Nagano is a bastard.

He started killing people indiscriminately from the Novice Village, causing his senior Guan Zhixi to suffer a sudden heart attack.

Now, the previous president is still under investigation, and the vice chairman, Yuto Hatoyama, is also unwell and may have to retire early.

Only a fool would offend this 22-year-old troublemaker who had been promoted three and a half levels in one year.

bow!

bow!

"Please support Nagano's work, please!"

“I will definitely work hard!”

“.”

The meeting is over.

The daily work of each department is gradually being carried out.

Although there are more things to deal with than at the Osaka Asset Management Headquarters, it is actually easier to have two full-time deputy directors assisting the president.

Especially since Osaka Asset Management is a secondary asset management company and is now controlled by Seto Shinnosuke, it can spend less energy on checks and balances in this regard.

The president doesn't have much to do as he only needs to balance the power struggle within the headquarters.

But this game of thrones.

Nagano Nao is now a man who knows everything.

To put it bluntly, rights are about interests, constraints and balances.

If you need to throw a bone, throw it to your subordinates to grab it. If you need to kick someone out, arrange a new project and throw the previous incumbent's confidant over without bloodshed and kick him out of the center of power.

Then arrange your own people to take positions, keep some old people, let them fight among themselves, and occasionally take sides, and the matter can be easily settled.

Next.

Naoio Nagano was full of righteousness. According to the instructions of the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare's Bureau of Elderly Care and Health, he established an elderly health welfare protection agency and threw all of Kunihiko Tsuchiya's direct subordinates there.

This is obviously a new retirement project.

But the struggle failed, and no one could do anything about the new official's butcher knife.

be opposed to?

You idiot, you caused the company to lose tens of billions when you were in charge of your original duties. Don't you feel guilty?

The people trusted you to manage their hard-earned money, and if it were me, I would have committed suicide by cutting my stomach long ago to apologize for the huge loss caused by you. No one dares to wear such a hat.

So.

Half a month passed.

Kunihiko Tsuchiya's direct subordinates were either eliminated and joined the pension department, or were marginalized and thrown to Osaka Asset Management to be taken care of by Shinnosuke Seto.

Although there are other factions besides these that do not distinguish between friend and foe, their influence on Naoto Nagano's power is minimal.

A new day.

Nao Nagano was sitting in the office.

On the table is the department information that Kurata Hiri had sorted out recently after working overtime.

The game of thrones.

The most interesting thing is whoever makes money has the final say.

After looking at the achievements made by the previous group of guys, Nagano Nao felt that these people were really a bunch of losers, no wonder they were so vulnerable.

However, if he wants to firmly secure the position of president, he needs to do more.

Some calculation.

This guy became aware of this.

The primary responsibility of Japanese life insurance has always been the payment of pensions and social welfare security, and to accomplish these, making money is naturally indispensable.

Talk about making money.

Who can be better than me, a cheater?

Looked at the stock market.

Due to the shadow of the Kuwait War, the Nikkei index seems to have lost its activity and has been hovering around 20,000 points recently.

The highest point year-on-year.

The share prices of major listed companies generally fell by more than 50 percent.

The Hanshin Group is also in a miserable state.

Compared with the highest point in the same period last year, the decline exceeded 65%, and the total market value was only 140 billion yen.

Of course, the total market value does not represent the value of the group itself.

Hanshin has a history of more than 80 years in Japan. Its subsidiaries include general contractors for projects in the fields of architectural lighting, thermal and nuclear power, steel manufacturing, petrochemicals, ports, etc., as well as equipment and spare parts supply and investment. It is a well-known comprehensive group company.

In addition, Hanshin and Hankyu also have cooperation in international transportation in Kansai, including sea transportation, air transportation and other businesses.

At the same time, as the largest railway company in the Kansai region, Hanshin has department stores along the railway and is also a monopoly railway department store group.

The relationships among the major groups under the Japanese conglomerate are very delicate.

Hanshin and Hankyu have cooperated on many projects. If Hanshin is acquired and then the cooperative relationship is used to acquire Hankyu, it will be equivalent to controlling Hanshin, Hankyu and Toho Group.

I opened Hanshin's information and took a look.

The stock price has fallen so much that Hanshin Group's core holdings have been greatly weakened, with the highest shareholding of 36% now reduced to 16%.

The second largest shareholder is Sanhe Bank, which holds 7 percent of the shares.

Next is Japanese life insurance, 4%.

Hankyu Holdings, which holds three percent.

These major shareholders have all reduced their holdings recently, resulting in a sharp drop in stock prices, which naturally means an increase in retail investors.

Has the highest level of information channels.

Naoyo Nagano knew very well that in order to transfer and expand overseas asset investments, Hanshin, like other groups, had been cashing out crazily, which was why it had become like this.

Without a doubt.

At this time, as long as you hold a large amount of cash, it is time to control the major groups under the controlling consortium.

However, the consortium's existence is centered on banks and has huge financial support from the banks, so it faces many obstacles in its acquisition efforts.

Even if Hanshin is using its working capital for overseas expansion now, once they start on their own, they can always borrow money from Sanhe to protect the market when they really need it.

Even with the support of Sanhe, they will definitely not be able to gain ultimate control. They can only receive dividends from stocks but cannot control the group.

I turned on the computer and looked at the international crude oil prices.

Recently, crude oil prices have risen sharply, soaring to $42 per barrel.

Nagano Naoto grinned.

Extremely treacherous.

Since the establishment of the Sanwa Group, it has experienced two bankruptcy crises. Each time it was due to the heavy losses suffered by Maruzen Oil, and Sanwa had to rescue it, which eventually implicated itself.

This time.

I gave the consortium a big cheap gift package.

If the oil price drops back to $10, the loss will be tens of millions of dollars. And now major companies are short of working capital, which will definitely make them suffer the consequences.

Arrange for Hattori Anko to register a new company.

After it's done.

Nao Nagano closed part of his long positions in the crude oil futures market and instead went into a $100 million short position.

The remaining $900 million was transferred to Japan.

Nao Nagano came to Sanwa Securities.

"Ah, it's Nagano-kun, welcome, welcome."

"It's like this. I came to see Miyashita-kun today because I want to ask a favor."

"Please tell me, Nagano-kun. If there is anything you need, I will definitely help you without hesitation."

"That's right! I want to ask how much Miyashita-kun earns a year?"

"What?"

"It's nothing! I admire Miyashita-kun's abilities very much, so I want to invite you to join the company of a friend of mine."

"I appreciate your kindness, Nagano-kun, but the moment I joined the company, I vowed to repay the company's training with my life."

Nagano Nao nodded.

Then he took out his checkbook and wrote down a string of numbers.

100000000.

"This is the annual salary my friend is willing to offer you, Miyashita-kun. He has always been very welcoming and respectful of talented people."

"Nagano-kun, your friend's respect for talent is truly admirable. If you can work with such a person, you will never regret it even if you sacrifice your soul!"

“.”
