Chapter 532 When President Horikawa came down from the seat and called Dad
Chapter 532 When President Horikawa came down and called Dad
Azuchi Castle Hachiman Shrine by Lake Biwa was cleaned very well today.
Although there are people who protect and help, today’s sweeping was done by Haru Haru himself.
Beside her, the two sisters, Keiko Kudo and Yuko Kudo, whom Tao Zhiming had arranged by Yuta Irie, were dressed like witches.
Now, she has changed into clean clothes and waited quietly in the room.
I heard from Taro that Nobuhiko Horikawa will personally come to apologize today.
Of course, this is just a little interest first. But being able to see the enemy bowing his head and admitting his mistake in front of him is still very important to Haruno.
It has only been over a year, and he has been able to help himself to this extent.
This will be a turning point.
Next, it is only a matter of time before Nobuhiko Horikawa really pays for what he has done.
Dalang said, it won’t be long.
“Keiko.” Haruka Haru asked, “President Horikawa and the others still in the main hall?”
“Yes.” Keiko Kudo, who was next to him, bowed, “I’ve been visiting worship there.”
Haruka Haru nodded.
Arrived early, waiting for Dalang to arrive?
The attitude is very humble.
Harano Haru doesn’t know how he did it, this is his powerful performance.
In the main hall of Hachiman Shrine, Nobuhiko Horikawa and Ninha Takagi have been standing there with their hands folded.
Today, Hachiman Shrine made an excuse and did not receive visitors from outsiders, and it seemed very quiet.
They have been waiting here for over an hour.
also stood for so long.
Although Tao Zhiming hasn’t arrived yet, they all know that there are people from Tao Zhiming here.
Now that he is ready to bow his head, his attitude will be seen by him.
It wasn’t until after another hour, close to noon, that I heard several footsteps in the courtyard of the shrine behind.
heard Haruno Haruka’s voice: “Welcome back…”
Horikawa Nobuhiko opened his eyes, moved his already numb legs, and turned around slowly.
Across the courtyard, Tao Zhiming was looking over with a smile.
Horikawa Nobuhiko saw a person next to him, his eyes were even more solemn.
That is Hashimoto Taro.
The two walked over, and Horikawa Nobuhiko bent his waist: “Hashimoto-san, President Tao, Ueno-kun, Irie-kun, good noon.”
“It’s been a long wait, Horikawa-san, Takagi-san.” Tao Zhiming said, “Let’s sit in the room and talk, I heard that you all pay homage here all morning. Are you tired after standing for so long?”
“The shrine is a good place to quietly reflect on the past.” Nobuhiko Horikawa sighed.
“Tao-kun, let’s talk first, and I’ll also pay a visit.” Hashimoto Taro glanced at Nobuhiko Horikawa indifferently, and then bowed to the main hall.
Irie Yuta followed, and Ueno Yosuke said to Takagi Renhachi with a smile on his face: “Father, regarding the wedding, my father has some ideas on procedures and etiquette, let me ask for your opinion.”
So each had his own business, and Horikawa Nobuhiko followed Tao Zhiming and Haru Ye into a quiet room in the side hall alone.
Kudo Keiko and Kudo Yuko helped prepare tea and withdrew.
Kneeling on the cushion on the floor, Nobuhiko Horikawa didn’t know how to speak for a while.
Tao Zhiming broke the silence: “Horikawa-sang, you should already know a lot of things, right?”
“…Yes.” Horikawa Nobuhiko raised his head, looked at the young man’s smiling eyes, and couldn’t help feeling a little emotional, “President Tao, I really admire you.”
“Where and where… In my eyes, Horikawa-san is much more brilliant than the original Iwasaki Kuranosuke.” Tao Zhiming said sincerely, “If Horikawa-san has his foundation, he will definitely be the strongest in Neon. One of the big ones.”
Nobuhiko Horikawa looked at him with complicated eyes: “But President Tao, with such an ordinary background, has become one of the most powerful people in Neon in just a few years.”
Hashimoto Taro followed him here, why didn’t Horikawa Nobuhiko understand?
“It seems that Takagi-sang has already told you everything.” Tao Zhiming replied with a smile, then put away his smile, straightened his back and stared at him, “Horikawa-sang, what’s your decision?”
He is taller than Nobuhiko Horikawa, and now he is sitting so straight, his eyes are looking down.
Horikawa Nobuhiko felt a little humiliated, but felt a little powerless.
But there are some things that must be confirmed at the end.
Horikawa Nobuhiko looked at Haruka Haru, she kept her head down, her face expressionless.
We met at Hachiman Shrine because of the death of Haruno Takizo.
Tao Zhiming said that since Haruka has become his woman, he doesn’t want her to always have an indifferent temperament.
Takagi Renhachi said that Tao Zhiming had long known about the death of Haruno Takizo, and the clues pointed to him Horikawa Nobuhiko himself.
In this situation, what should we do?
Horikawa Nobuhiko was silent for a while, then slowly stood up and bowed deeply to Haru Ye: “Takisan’s death, I also have a great responsibility. I can’t comfort his dead soul for so many years, I feel deeply. I am disturbed. But please believe that whether it is Akira Watanabe or Nori Watanabe who personally arranged the execution, I will definitely make them pay the price as soon as possible!”
After he finished speaking, he quickly knelt down and dropped his body to the ground. It was a standard earthen seat: “Please give me a little more time, I’m really… I’m so sorry!”
After that, the room was silent.
Haruka Haru didn’t say anything, just clenched his fist tightly.
Tao Zhiming squeezed her hand gently, so Haruka Haru slowly calmed down.
Horikawa Nobuhiko moved again and changed direction, facing Tao Zhiming. A voice came from the floor: “Tao… Sang, what do you think?”
Tao Zhiming almost laughed.
That’s true, Nobuhiko Horikawa.
The truth about Haruno Takizo’s death is vague, and there is no mention of Haruno Yuki’s matter, of course, because of poor information.
Takagi Jinpachi would never say anything about Haruno Yuki. In that case, Horikawa Nobuhiko interprets it from Tao Zhiming’s request to meet at Hachiman Shrine, and it would mean something else entirely.
He is doing the final test to see what purpose he is using the truth about Haruno Takizo’s death. See if he still thinks he is of great use, just use this matter to make him submit, and since then his status has been reversed, Tao Zhiming is in the top, and he has become a sidekick.
Horikawa Nobuhiko is willing to be this sidekick, so he has to express enough sincerity, and he does not hesitate to use the ambiguous name of “Tao Sang” and call him father directly.
Consistently unscrupulous, it fits his style.
If you think I’m still useful, I’m already like this, and you will cover me in the future, and you don’t need to mention my bad things, okay?
I will do whatever you ask me to do. You are high above, and you are always someone who needs to do dirty things.
Tao Zhiming really admires his ability to bend and stretch.
Then just bow down.
The room was quiet again, and Nobuhiko Horikawa had been kneeling there.
The humiliation in my heart naturally became stronger and stronger, but it became more and more relaxed.
At this moment, Horikawa Nobuhiko really knew very well that when such a group of people had been united very firmly, and he had been targeted for so long, he could not escape this disaster.
Whether the future is dead or alive is really just in the mind of the young man opposite.
Why is it up to him to decide what to do?
Because he is too young.
He was so young, yet so hard to be brought down. If he can’t be overthrown, how will the next generation of the major consortiums face him in the future?
He happens to be the weakest on paper, so he is destined to be in the stage of winning over his own power.
A person like himself, the president of a large consortium, is the best person who can greatly expand his strength. To this day, Nobuhiko Horikawa has understood that the reason why Iwasaki Ryunosuke attacked him at the beginning was negotiated and reconciled, and the real bargaining chip was himself.
After that, Tao Zhiming was essentially a person on an equal footing with the other three consortiums, rather than someone he thought he could win over with the same grass-roots background.
Today, it is to consolidate this realization in substance.
So he didn’t speak, let himself kneel like this all the time, this is just right, it’s a good sign.
shows that he recognized his own value, and after planning for so long, what he needs is always interests, not something to “make Haruka no longer indifferent”.
This is a scene that only the three people in the room see. Taro Hashimoto made excuses to visit the shrine, and Yosuke Ueno pulled away Renhachi Takagi, all of which were preserving the dignity and dignity he deserved.
Tao Zhiming didn’t know what Horikawa Nobuhiko was thinking now, so he said, “Horikawa-san, listen to Takagi-san, did you prepare a pistol yesterday?”
Horikawa Nobuhiko’s shoulders trembled, and he answered dryly: “Tao Sang’s methods made me terrified, and I was also very angry when I realized his betrayal. Now, I have fully understood Takagi-sang, and I am very grateful for his good intentions. Tao Sang, I’m too radical, I believe you will understand.”
One mouthful of Taosang, it became more and more smooth.
“How can you be so sure that he is also doing it for your own good?” Tao Zhiming’s voice was full of smiles, “Let you bear the guilt for the past, and he can truly hold the position of president with our support. Horikawa The scandal that San is involved in will become a huge crisis for the Daiichi Kanye Foundation, and Itochu Kobei and others who know our strength will give in.”
Horikawa Nobuhiko gritted his teeth and said, “Takagi-san was not the one who confronted Itochu-san and the others in the past. I believe that the first Quanye will be defeated in the end, but my existence can still make things easier. Moreover, now I’ve already made up my mind and will fulfill your instructions as your useful subordinate! Whether it’s the Daiichi Kanye or the Yawata Research Association, I’ve already recognized my position!”
Speaking of this, his voice became louder. Although he was still kneeling, he didn’t seem to be afraid of being heard by outsiders: “Tao Sang! You and I are both from commoners. I believe that for the future inheritance of the family, you will also Need more support from loyal subordinates!”
Tao Zhiming’s voice was a little closer, as if coming closer, but his tone was a little cold: “Horikawa-sang, with your personality and style, do you think I can trust you?”
Nobuhiko Horikawa didn’t answer for a while, then he slowly raised his head and looked at Tao Zhiming.
This is the first time he raised his head after kneeling down.
What saw was a face with a stern expression, but there was no ridicule at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were all serious.
Horikawa Nobuhiko smiled wryly, pointed to his hair, and said in a desolate voice, “Tao Sang, I’m already old. You’re still so young, I’ve accepted my fate in front of you, and I don’t expect my descendants to be able to turn the world upside down one day.”
At this time, he seemed to relax, took a sip of tea by himself, and said rather desolately: “Climbing up step by step, it is really difficult for people like me to be trusted for the sake of success and status. But I don’t have to worry about this. You don’t have to think about this problem, you must have a solution to this problem.”
Looking at Tao Zhiming, Horikawa Nobuhiko said: “It turned out that I just wanted to get better. Now, I just think that I still have the value of living. I do still have a lot of strength and can fight to the death, but that’s not the case. What’s the point? I’ve conceded in advance, Tao Sang, are you satisfied with my answer?”
Yes, Horikawa Nobuhiko has thought about it a lot for so many days. If he acquiesced that the other party’s intention is the most sinister one, the one that must kill himself, what would happen if he fought to the death?
Even if he can set off a huge amount of energy and fight back against them madly, he has only one life after all, Nobuhiko Horikawa.
As long as the Tokyo District Prosecutor’s Special Investigation Department takes him away from Nobuhiko Horikawa, what’s the point of destroying them other than just adding a little inner happiness?
Those things will also strengthen their determination to let themselves pay the price of their lives and let the entire Horikawa family sink completely.
What’s more, only one Takagi Jinhachi was bought?
Do you want to kill Jinhachi Takagi first?
Kill Jinhachi Takagi first, what will the other subordinates think? If he doesn’t kill Renhachi Takagi, he can temporarily gather other subordinates in minutes when he is captured, “wait for the changes and find a way to rescue”.
So this is really a dead end, only your own life is real. The situation has developed to this point, unless you want to die, then it is meaningless to fight back and retaliate.
Horikawa Nobuhiko’s hair is so white.
So he said he had conceded in advance, very sincere, and very lonely.
He saw that Tao Zhiming’s eyes showed a hint of admiration. He didn’t know whether to affirm his attitude or admire his sober mind.
“Haruka, since Horikawa-sang has already promised, then give him some more time.” Tao Zhiming held Chunye Haruka’s hand, as if to reassure her to obey him, “The past is over, you have done it. What you can do, leave the rest to us.”
Haru Ye pursed his lips and nodded: “I understand…Thank you.”
“Go and get Hashimoto-sama and Takagi-san and the others to come here for me.”
Haruno got up and walked out the door slowly, Tao Zhiming said to Nobuhiko Horikawa: “Sang Horikawa, I said I admire you, I mean it.”
Nobuhiko Horikawa shook his head bitterly: “Tao Sang, everything I said is serious. What I want to discuss with Hashimoto-sama has something to do with the Hachiman Research Association?”
“That’s right.” Tao Zhiming nodded, “Horikawa-sang, I still cannot do without you. It’s the Hachiman Research Association, let Takagi-san be in charge. In addition, the Ueda family is a family of samurai, and the Hachiman Shrine also needs it. The loyal warrior who guards it.”
“…” Nobuhiko Horikawa wanted to understand and lowered his head, “It’s a very good arrangement.”
His influence was completely limited to the First Quanye Consortium, and the first Quanye was named Tao sooner or later.
Nobuhiko Horikawa has no bargaining chips now, so he can fight for something more.
Tao Zhiming added: “Takizo Haruno was originally your righteous brother, and Haruka is like your niece. Since we are a family, why not let your wife and children come here from time to time to live and enhance their relationship?”
Horikawa Nobuhiko looked at him, Tao Zhiming’s expression was calm.
Anyway, as you said, I will definitely have a solution to the question of “whether you are trustworthy”.
Horikawa Nobuhiko bowed his head again: “It should be like this.”
Do you always come here to live here, or do you live here until the event is over?
“Since you persuaded Itochu Kobei and the others to accept my capital injection and helped solve the major problems of the consortium, let’s continue to promote the plan to drive them off the stage.” Tao Zhiming said with a smile, “In order to help you, I will first Sending someone to do due diligence and financial audits is also a procedure that should be done before formally negotiating the terms of the capital injection.”
Horikawa Nobuhiko nodded, and he had to send someone to monitor him, which was very understandable.
Tao Zhiming said meaningfully: “This person is Shengu Lizi.”
Horikawa Nobuhiko looked up at him in amazement.
Tao Zhiming’s expression was calm, as if observing his reaction.
But Horikawa Nobuhiko, who has regressed, can turn his face because of Fukaya Riko at this moment?
In his opinion, the person who made such a plan for the hatred of women must be a lunatic. But is this young man crazy? No, he was terribly smart.
Is this a further determination of one’s “loyalty level”?
So Horikawa Nobuhiko said: “It’s a person who was originally from the first to promote a career. Presumably Itochu Kobei and the others will only think that this is your sincerity, and everything is just a passing scene.”
Tao Zhiming’s mouth curled up, as if satisfied.
Those who are unwilling to fail completely and who have decided to be dogs are no longer so dangerous.
And Tao Zhiming called Fukani Lizi back, not only because she personally participated in the fun, but also because she could best perform this duty.
Of course, Tao Zhiming was about to confuse Nobuhiko Horikawa now, so he said with a smile: “Horikawa-sang, I would like to thank you for cultivating her, so she has very strong professional ability and is very loyal and obedient. I use her It’s very easy to use, to be honest, you may have heard about my real financial resources from Takagi-san. Those funds are mainly managed by her according to my instructions. ”
Nobuhiko Horikawa of course knew that she was a woman whose character was distorted by herself and inspired servility.
Now, it seems that Tao Zhiming wanted her to pass by to take advantage of this.
So he tentatively said: “Tao Sang, if you think such a person is easy to use, I have some here…”
Tao Zhiming smiled: “In the future, it will be used.”
This smile is ambiguous and provocative. Horikawa Nobuhiko was wrong, thinking that Tao Zhiming really felt that way, so he also laughed in agreement.
Sure enough, in his current territory, the dark side is the Inagawa Society, but the gray side is only the guy Kinoshita Hidefu who used to be a little bit involved, how can he be compared with himself?
And the guy who can cooperate so well with the Inagawa Club, why would he care about that?
Horikawa Nobuhiko saves others by himself, plus Tao Zhiming has many women, and he has always been flying, which made Horikawa Nobuhiko not think deeply in this direction.
How did he know that he was just a “lucky throw” randomly selected because of various antecedents when Tao Zhiming planned the consortium war and chose to break through the target?
Tao Zhiming ambiguously changed the atmosphere in the room. He had knocked the warning stick before, but now he gave a false sweet date.
He said seriously: “Say it again, Horikawa-san, I really admire you very much, and I am even very happy now, you have noticed the current situation because of the little changes in your original plan, and made my best decision. The choice I hope to see. After Hashimoto-san comes over, in fact, in addition to the Hachiman Research Society, I have one more thing to talk to you about.”
“Please tell me!” Horikawa Nobuhiko put his head straight and lowered his head.
“On the way to success, I understand the feeling of doing a lot of things against my will.” Tao Zhiming said sternly, “That’s also because the starting point is too low. Now that we have a new platform, we don’t have to do that anymore. .”
Nobuhiko Horikawa felt moved by Tao Zhiming, he didn’t know, anyway, one said so, the other listened to it.
It’s true that he didn’t move.
Tao Zhiming continued: “The other thing is that you need to cooperate with Hashimoto-san. Now, it is planned to merge the Neon Export-Import Bank and Neon Overseas Economic Cooperation Fund to form a Neon International Cooperation Bank. The capital of this bank is It all comes from the government, but it can borrow and issue financial bonds. I hope you will let the First Quanye Consortium actively support the financing of this bank.”
Although the scale of bad debts of Daiichi Quanye is now very large, since Tao Zhiming has “joined”, Nobuhiko Horikawa feels that there is no problem.
“This is not purely to expand the debt risk of No. 1 Quanye.” Tao Zhiming continued, “Neon International Cooperation Bank will initiate investment in several projects in Xiangdao. Weishangjiao was not established with a few wealthy businessmen in Xiangdao. Do you have a real estate club? After the tail seam accident, those people in Xiangdao will need to provide funds to complete the harvest. I hope that the first Quanye will also grant them a credit, which can be said to be the first Quanye to those high-quality assets. The harvest plan, Itochu Kobei and the others will not object.”
Horikawa Nobuhiko’s heart froze, and he asked, “Then those from Kashima…are those under your command?”
Tao Zhiming smiled, he understood it just fine.
“Horikawa-san, let me tell you this. When Iwasaki Ryunosuke and you plotted against me, they also relied on the support of those in the United States? But I showed my cards, and they were worried that I would go to their base camp with my strength in the future. Set off a storm and make them lose a lot in the U.S. financial market, so in the end they need to compromise with me.”
Let those people in the United States also compromise, I don’t know why Nobuhiko Horikawa feels very cool.
“So, since I have already invested in Fragrant Island, then Fragrant Island is such a small place, and those benefits will naturally be made up for me.” Speaking of this, Tao Zhiming began to bewitched, “Those few people can’t now. They are my subordinates. But if you want them to become my subordinates, or simply quit the Kashima stage, they will have to go through a lot like you, right?”
A dog whose spine was just broken is really very moved about breaking someone else’s spine, and it feels like he is powerless to resist, so he goes to bully others.
Horikawa Nobuhiko couldn’t help but say: “You mean…”
“That’s right!” Tao Zhiming smiled and encouraged, and when a smart person hinted, he would definitely understand, “Horikawa-sang, why do I have so many friends? Because I can always bring greater benefits to everyone. Don’t worry. After yielding to me, you will get less in the future than you are now. At my birthday party last year, don’t you understand? My stage is all over the world! In addition to Xiangdao, Zhou Kingdom, Southeast Asia, and Oylt , Hongsu, Europe, America!”
He said how could Nobuhiko Horikawa forget the birthday party last year?
That is a party that discusses the future, points out a way for the whole neon, and even says that in the future, it can wait to eat the blood of the overlord!
This is his spirit.
Looking at his young face, Horikawa Nobuhiko suddenly felt that it was destiny.
Just like Iwasaki Ryunosuke’s current true feelings, Horikawa Nobuhiko came up with the idea of ”losing is not wrong”.
“So Horikawa-san!” Tao Zhiming extended his hand to him, “Follow me to the world! Dye your hair black, you are in your prime! Xiangdao’s investment is the first step to the world stage! Except for you , who else around me has the ability to control the entire international industry?”
Horikawa Nobuhiko was played hemp.
I thought that he would indeed lack someone who could do dirty things, and his ability was indeed not bad. However, it turns out that his purpose of convincing himself in this way is to gather the generals for such a broad plan?
“I will definitely do my best!” Horikawa Nobuhiko put his hands up and bent down, “Master President!”
“I’m sorry.” Takagi Renhachi’s voice sounded outside the door.
After the door was opened, Nobuhiko Horikawa knew that he didn’t have to maintain his dignity and self-esteem in front of these people, so he deliberately maintained this attitude for them to see.
Takagi Renpachi magically discovered that Horikawa Nobuhiko was actually a little radiant and invigorated, so he was completely dizzy.
After sat down, he didn’t dare to look at it or ask more questions, so he just lowered his head.
Taro Hashimoto saw that Nobuhiko Horikawa was very kind to everything discussed, and also actively helped to add details. He could only take a look at Tao Zhiming from time to time with emotion.
You are so outrageous, this is the president of the dignified consortium? So simply become your loyal dog?
Tao Zhiming just smiled, hiding his merit and fame.
I told you a long time ago, do as I say, and you will be prime minister in the future.
I’m sick, and I have more than 6,800 words. I won’t make up what I owe yesterday, I can’t stand it…
