Upon hearing this, everyone was secretly surprised. They knew Fujiwara Hirofumi's level of swordsmanship well. Although the skilled swordsmen who fought against him had their share of victories and defeats, no one had ever been able to make Fujiwara Hirofumi so frustrated.
Ning Zhiheng quickly stepped forward and said, "Uncle, your body is much stronger than that of a young man. I only have some brute strength. It would be unfair for me to win!"
Fujiwara Hirofumi looked at Ning Zhiheng and laughed heartily. He reached out and patted Ning Zhiheng on the shoulder, saying with satisfaction, "Zhiren, you are too modest. With your experience, your achievements are enough to show that you have extraordinary talent. It's a pity that if you had focused on cultivating him from a young age, your achievements would certainly not be like this."
Fujiwara Hirofumi is now very satisfied with Ning Zhiheng. This fellow clansman is not only eloquent and composed, but also extremely capable, and his personal cultivation is also outstanding.
During the exchange at Mulan Academy, I personally witnessed Ning Zhiheng wielding his brush and ink, creating a scroll worthy of a master. Now, his skill in swordsmanship is also remarkable. He is truly accomplished in both literature and martial arts, and is by no means inferior to those who have been trained from childhood in China.
Ning Zhiheng said with a smile, "Uncle, you flatter me. I am ashamed and still have much to learn from you."
Fujiwara Hirofumi nodded slightly and continued, "I know that your Fujiwara Company is quite large in Shanghai. Let's go there today to take a look!"
This was to conduct an on-site inspection of Ning Zhiheng's business achievements in Shanghai. Ning Zhiheng hurriedly nodded and said, "That's great, I'll make the arrangements right away."
"No, don't prepare anything, and don't make any phone calls. We'll just go and see for ourselves!" Fujiwara Hirofumi said, waving his hand.
"Yes, sir!" Ning Zhiheng bowed and replied.
After leaving the kendo dojo, a convoy headed towards the Fujiwara Company. The Fujiwara Company was rapidly expanding, not only developing rapidly in Shanghai, but also opening branches in various parts of southern Jiangsu, and its personnel were also growing rapidly.
Originally, the office building was just a three-story office building. Now, they have forcibly bought the two office buildings next to it as well. The entire office area is now very large, with a large signboard at the entrance, which is quite eye-catching.
As the convoy entered the compound, Ning Zhiheng quickly waited for Fujiwara Hirofumi to get out of the car. The company's bodyguards were quite frightened by the large entourage and quickly notified all the company's senior executives. Soon, Yi Huaan and Hirao Daichi led a group of cadres to greet them.
"President, you're back!" Everyone bowed in greeting.
Ning Zhiheng spotted Hirao Daichi at a glance and asked in surprise, "Hirao, when were you discharged from the hospital?"
Hirao Daichi had been recuperating at Boli Hospital since he was injured a month ago. He was shot by a long gun bullet, and although the wound was not serious, the injury was still quite severe, so he had not been discharged. Ning Zhiheng had been staying at work for the past few days to accompany Fujiwara Hirofumi and was unaware that Hirao Daichi had already been discharged.
Hirao Daichi quickly bowed and replied, "Chairman, I have recovered and returned to the company yesterday!"
Ning Zhiheng nodded, turned around and loudly introduced to everyone: "This is my uncle, Duke Fujiwara Hirofumi, a member of the House of Nobles. He has come to the company today to inspect your work!"
Upon hearing this, everyone in the company was shocked. Duke Fujiwara was a direct descendant of the Fujiwara family in the country and a prominent figure among the top nobles. Ordinary people in the country would never see such a person, let alone in Shanghai, China.
The scene fell silent. Everyone bowed and dared not utter a word. Fujiwara Hirofumi smiled and nodded, then said to Ning Zhiheng, "Let's go in and take a look. You lead the way!"
"Yes, sir!" Ning Zhiheng replied repeatedly and followed Fujiwara Hirofumi into the company building. The others then seemed to wake up from their daze and quickly followed behind.
After entering the office building, Fujiwara Hirofumi began to inquire about the situation of each department in detail, and Ning Zhiheng and the department staff in charge answered his questions one by one.
Fujiwara Company now has a wide range of businesses. In order to cover up its smuggling business, the company has done almost all the trade in goods it can get its hands on, and the scale is getting bigger and bigger. Now, the company's profits are also very large just from legitimate trade, and because of its monopoly, the profits will continue to grow.
Fujiwara Hirofumi conducted a very thorough investigation, which took him two hours to complete. When he learned that Fujiwara Company had branches in Hong Kong, Suzhou, Changzhou, Wuxi, and other places, he couldn't help but nod in satisfaction.
Finally, he said to Ning Zhiheng, "In just a few short years, you have built this empire from scratch. Zhiren, your talent is evident, and I am very satisfied with your performance!"
With a look of shame on his face, Ning Zhiheng said softly, "I am able to achieve what I have today entirely because of the protection of my family. As long as everyone knows that I am a member of the Fujiwara family, they all look up to me. Whether in the military or the business world, I have no obstacles. That's why the company has been able to develop so rapidly!"
Ning Zhiheng's words were half true and half false. The Fujiwara family's reputation certainly played a significant role in the Fujiwara Company's success, but the main reason was the powerful Uehara Junpei, who instilled fear in everyone and made them hand over their profits.
Fujiwara Hirofumi was also aware of this; although his family's reputation played a role, the most important factor was the talent of the young man himself.
At this moment, Fujiwara Hirofumi continued, "I heard that you were recently assassinated by Chinese people and almost lost your life. What happened?"
In the past few days, Fujiwara Hirofumi has also conducted a detailed investigation into Ning Zhiheng. Information from Japan has confirmed the authenticity of Fujiwara Tomohito's identity. He also sent Takahashi Hiroshi to find out a lot about Fujiwara Tomohito through local intelligence channels.
