Yashiko looked down whenever he thought of his potential partnership with the Schulz family.In the car, he sighed, saying, “Tanaka, Japanese economic development has been in a slump for a decade. Not only our family but the fortunes of a few prestigious families have been affected and shrunk. Also, our heirs are not as capable…”Tanaka asked hurriedly, “Chairman, Japan was once the most developed country in the world for a few decades ever since the world war. Why hasn’t it kept up for the past ten years?”Yashiko replied regretfully. “There are many reasons contributing to this slowed-down economy. Firstly, there is a limited supply of natural resources and land in Japan. Secondly, there were no recent breakthroughs in the Japanese information technology industry.”Yashiko continued emotionally, “Look, gone are those years when many Japanese sectors were on top of the world. These sectors have gradually lost their significance in recent years.”“Back in those days, Sony, Panas

As Japan’s top financial magnate, Ito family had been continually losing its grip on the country’s economy.Another huge Japanese family, Takahashi family, also faced the same dilemma.Both families were actively seeking breakthroughs. So, both pinned all their hopes on the top Chinese families.As the top family in China, Schulz’s family’s influence had been on the rise for the past few years and as China rapidly developed, so did the strength of the Schulz family. Schulz family’s primary focus these past few years had been maintaining and consolidating the domestic market. In these past two years, they began turning their attention to the overseas market after securing its position as the top conglomerate in China.As a result, many Japanese families and tycoons were eager to develop in-depth collaborations with Schulz family. Over the past ten years, China’s import and export trade had continued to grow. The demand for shipping boomed, and the construction of new ports had been ex

In the afternoon, Charlie expelled and fired nearly half of the entire staff working for Kobayashi Pharma with incredible ease.These people from Kobayashi Pharma were originally thinking of using a strike to fight against Charlie. However, they never expected that Charlie would not be softhearted at all. Instead, he fired all of them directly without leaving even a single person behind. This incident caused a major commotion in the Japanese business community!First of all, no one would have thought that Kobayashi Pharma, which had been developing and growing so well, would experience a sudden change of ownership. Ninety percent of Kobayashi Pharma’s shares had already been transferred to an Oskian, and it was now officially an Oskian company. Secondly, no one would have thought that after Kobayashi Pharma became an Oskian company, it would fire more than half of its employees at one go!In Japan, apart from bankruptcies, very few companies would suddenly expel and fire so many

Charlie nodded in satisfaction as he said to Ichiro, “From today onward, you have to cooperate and work together with Liam to readjust all the production plans for Kobayashi Pharma. I want you to stop all of Kobayashi Pharma’s current and previous production, and you will switch to fully producing the Apothecary Stomach Pill on all production lines. Do you understand?”Ichiro hurriedly and sincerely replied, “Don’t worry, Mr. Wade. I will surely give my utmost cooperation to Mr. Weaver!”Liam spoke to Charlie at this time, “Mr. Wade, Kobayashi Pharma has a very strong production capacity. If we are going to start producing the Apothecary Stomach Pill at full scale, we will also be demanding a very huge amount of raw materials for the Apothecary Stomach Pill in advance. We should make sure that we are fully prepared for this. Otherwise, our production capacity will certainly be severely restricted when we have insufficient raw production materials.”Charlie nodded and said, “I will s

After Graham had hung up the phone, Aurora, who was next to him, asked curiously, “Dad, what did Master Wade say when he called you?”Graham, who was still lost in his excitement, was still unable to free himself from this excitement. He took a few seconds to recover and regain his composure before he said excitedly, “Aurora! The Quinton family has been given an extremely great opportunity!”Aurora asked in surprise, “Dad, what kind of extremely great opportunity are you talking about?”Graham was so excited that he was still trembling a little as he spoke, “It’s Master… It’s Master Wade… Master Wade has taken over Kobayashi Pharma in Japan. He said that he will appoint our Quinton family to supply him with all the raw medicinal herbs and materials in the future. The annual demand is almost one million tons!”“Oh, my God!” Aurora exclaimed in amazement, “One million tons? Our family is currently only supplying about two hundred thousand tons a year, right?”“That’s right…” Graham

Ninety percent of Kobayashi Pharma’s shares had been transferred under the Apothecary Pharmaceutical’s name now.As the production work and process at Kobayashi Pharma was very important now, Charlie could not leave Tokyo for the time being. He wanted to ensure that all of Kobayashi Pharma’s production lines had been successfully converted to fully produce the Apothecary Stomach Pill before he leaves Japan.So, the first production line that needed to be converted to produce the Apothecary Stomach Pill was Kobayashi Pharma’s production base in Tokyo.Charlie asked Liam to take an inventory of all the medicinal herbs and materials that were present at Kobayashi Pharma at this time. After that, he wanted Liam to count all of the medicinal herbs and materials that could be used to produce the Apothecary Stomach Pill. Next, Liam needed to calculate the quantity of other medicinal herbs and materials that would be needed based on the production capacity of the production lines in Tokyo.

At Kyoto City, which was hundreds of kilometers away from Tokyo.The huge Ito family mansion with a century-old history was located in the center of Kyoto City.The Ito family mansion was located next to the Azuchi Castle, which was the residence of Oda Nobunaga, one of the three great unifiers during the Sengoku period in Japan. Although the surface area of the Ito family mansion was slightly smaller compared to the Azuchi Castle, the overall surface area was already much larger compared to the largest standalone family villa in Eastcliff.There was a moat that had been excavated during the war surrounding the mansion, and it bore the heavy responsibility of guarding the mansion.Three hundred and sixty degrees surveillance cameras were installed on the walls to capture all the blind spots and ensure that no one would be able to trespass and enter the mansion without any permission.Many bodyguards were armed with live ammunition behind the towering mansion walls.The buildings

As her thoughts were running wild, the cell phone in her pocket suddenly started ringing.When she took out her cell phone, she realized that it was a phone call from Tanaka-san. She hurriedly put her thoughts aside before she answered the call, and she smiled as she said, “Tanaka-san, why are you calling me so late at night?”Hiroshi sighed as he said, “Miss, something happened today. The chairman is very angry, and he smashed and destroyed a lot of antiques at home.”Nanako felt very nervous and anxious when she heard this, and she hurriedly asked, “Tanaka-san, what happened? Did my Eminent Father encounter some sort of trouble?”Hiroshi said, “The chairman brought me along with me to Kobayashi Pharma because he intended to sign a share transfer agreement with the board of directors of Kobayashi Pharma. After signing the agreement, the chairman asked the staff from the financial department to transfer four and a half billion US dollars over to Kobayashi Pharma’s account…”When N

Jacob certainly agreed with Mr. Bay. When going to a dinner where alcohol would be involved, having a designated driver would be most convenient.Still, Jacob had another plan in mind.Since he had a Cullinan and this was the perfect chance to show off, it would kill him not to drive."Actually, we should go on our own," Jacob told Mr. Bay right then. "We will take my car and get a designated driver to take us home. We can hang out in the backseat to chat—I mean, you'd be in a bad mood if you get a bad driver, bringing a car that stinks of tobacco. You know how bad it can get."Mr. Bay nodded cheerfully. "Alright! I'm counting on you!""Oh, it's only right!"Coming to an agreement, they hurried outside, with Jacob driving and Mr. Bay riding shotgun.They were having a pleasant conversation when Jacob suddenly got a call from Walker, who was his sub at Senior University.Answering with the in-car Bluetooth system, he said, "Hey, Walker. What's up?""Mr. Wilson! I'm done with cl

As such, Albert did not hesitate to say right then, "Don't worry, Mr. Wilson—since they are your friends, I will offer the half-price rebate as you've suggested! When the guests take their seats, I'll personally deliver a couple of nice bottles over as a token of my sincerity!"Oskia truly sets the bar when it comes to being humanistic.There were times when one must show due respect, but not too much either in case it changed the status quo.It was just like a couple eating out with a third-wheel.Even if the third-wheel was better off and happily took the check as the girl watched, there would inevitably be competitiveness. The generosity might even lead to the girl getting attracted to the third-wheel.As such, since Jacob was actually secondary in importance at the event, Albert would have to make sure not to rain on the host's parade while showing his respects to Jacob. Otherwise, the host may hold a grudge against Jacob even if everything was free of charge.And when it cam

Jacob put a hand on his chest. "Don't worry—everything is going to be fine when my son-in-law takes the stage."As soon as he finished speaking, an unknown number called his phone.He answered, hearing a familiar voice he couldn't quite place, "Good afternoon. Am I speaking to Mr. Jacob Wilson?""Yes. May I ask who I am speaking to?""Albert Rhodes, owner of Heaven Springs at your service. Would you happen to remember me?"Hearing that, Jacob turned on the speaker excitedly as he continued, "Oh, yes, Don Albert! Of course I remember!"Mr. Bay's eyes lit up when he heard Albert announce himself, and he mouthed, "Is that really Don Albert?!"Jacob nodded repeatedly, his vanity burgeoning.Mr. Bay was naturally thrilled too, and he leaned closer to listen just as Albert spoke humbly, "If it's alright with you, Mr. Wilson, please don't address me as Don Albert. It's just a title some brats came up with—you are Master Wade's father-in-law, which means you have seniority over me. So,

Mr. Bay was overjoyed, seeing how quickly Jacob agreed to it. "Thanks, Jacob! I owe you!" He exclaimed, but soon added, "It's past four now, and that bunch like to fraternize in the room before they eat. Could you get the room soon? I think they'll be arriving soon."Then, he moved closer to add quietly, "If you can get a Diamond Room like before, I will bring you along. I'm not going to lie, these are officials with decision-making authority. Being friends with them might propel us to new heights!"Jacob already knew that Mr. Bay was sucking up to his friend, otherwise, he wouldn't be so concerned when the dinner was organized by said friend. Understanding that the friend must be important too, Jacob was at once buoyed.After all, he had presumed that becoming vice president was the most he could achieve.Now, if he could attend that dinner with Mr. Bay and establish a good relationship with those bigwigs, he would have his turn when Mr. Bay got promoted too.With that in min

Reservations in Heaven Springs had always been unpredictable, and most rooms weren't open to the general public—even if said rooms were vacant for the night.It was not as if Albert Rhodes didn't want to make money when he built Heaven Springs. He simply didn't do it solely for profit, but only mostly for social events and posturing.Back when he was a humbler member of society, he realized that many bigwigs and even his fellows cared for pride a lot. Be it food, liquor, or even simply everyday consumption, they always strove for the best and the most expensive.That was why polite society valued their privacy and established their respective social circles, which was why Heaven Springs ensured that everything was first-rate: atmosphere, service, food, and clientele.Just like how bigwigs wouldn't dine at the same table as their goons, said goons wouldn't eat at the fancy places those bigwigs frequented even if they had money, as it may appear as if they were overstepping.That wa

As such, intent on keeping up his pretense, Jacob answered the phone, "Looking for me, Matilda?""Uh-huh," Matilda replied, and asked, "You didn't show up at Senior University, and your sub is saying you probably won't be coming for a while? Is that true?""Oh—right, that," Jacob quickly said. "Well, it's true—the gist of it is that the Association is getting busy with a project. As the vice president, I probably shouldn't be staying at Senior University all the time, right?""Heck, Mr. Bay called me last minute, telling me how busy we're going to be and that I was needed. That's why I had to go back, but I will head over to campus again when I have the time."Matilda knew right then that those were all excuses.However, she did not expose Jacob, instead asking, "Well, when are you free? So that I can send you my wedding invitation?""Oh, the invitation?" Jacob quickly chuckled. "You really didn't have to come to me—just pass it to Walker, my sub lecturer. He can pass it to me wh

The next afternoon, there was a sudden change of lecturers for the calligraphy class.Despite being the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, Jacob never showed up, instead getting a substitute instructor to replace him.Matilda had come with the invitation Yolden had written for Jacob, but seeing that Jacob wasn't at the lecture hall, she waited until the class was over to ask the sub, "Excuse me, can I ask why Mr. Wilson wasn't teaching this class?""He's busy at the association," the sub replied. "So, I'm taking over his class."Curious, Matilda pressed, "Then, would you happen to know when he will be coming?""Probably not for a while," the sub replied. "He delegated other classes to me as well, telling me that I could just stick to the PowerPoint slides."Then, he asked, "Do you have business with Mr. Wilson?"Matilda nodded. "Yes, but I can call him myself. Thank you."Leaving the lecture hall, Matilda called Jacob, who was goofing off in his office

On the other end, Matilda was left staring at Jacob's reply in confusion.She had presumed that Jacob would understand when she mentioned inviting his whole family that he should be coming up with an excuse to skip attending her wedding.That was the most ideal solution.As such, she was shocked that instead of playing along, Jacob's reply was short and blunt.[No problem. The four of us will be there!]Perplexed, Matilda was left wondering what Jacob meant. Was he really going to attend her wedding with Elaine?The thought left Matilda frowning as she absolutely didn't want to see Elaine—especially not at her own wedding.Yolden was writing an invitation when he saw the somber look on her face, and he couldn't help asking, "Is there a problem?""Jacob replied," Matilda admitted. "And he's saying that he will bring his whole family.""Really?" Yolden was confused too, as he was hardly as eccentric as Jacob. "But he's afraid of his wife and shouldn't be telling her at all…

Charlie was driving Jacob to Thompson First when the latter received the text from Matilda.Seeing that they were reaching the front gates, Jacob promptly snapped at Charlie, "Charlie, stop the car now!"Charlie did so and asked in curiosity, "What's wrong?""Matilda just texted me," Jacob replied, showing the chat log between him and Matilda.Charlie was just glancing at it nonchalantly when he saw that Matilda's contact name was 'AAA July Florist'."Wait, why is that Aunt Matilda's contact name?" He exclaimed in surprise."I changed it."Jacob explained gingerly while reading through the text Matilda sent. "Her profile picture is an iris, so I changed her contact name to a florist since I'm mostly worried Elaine would peek into my phone.""Anyway, she's asking if I'm attending her wedding with Yolden. They would send us an invitation if I accept, extended to our whole family… what do you think I should say?"Charlie asked in return. "You're planning to skip it, aren't you? T
