Chapter Eight: We're All One Family

Entering the Japanese-style living room, Iwashita Suigo, dressed in a kimono, was studying a Go game manual. Looking at the

densely packed , he had clearly been sitting there for quite some time.

"Ah, Toshio's here!"

Hearing footsteps, Iwashita Suigo stood up and said apologetically, "I'm so sorry

to have troubled you to come so late."

Logically, I was the one who was going to marry his daughter, so Iwashita Suigo didn't need to be so polite. However, he was a man who greatly

respected talent, and it was Nak who had saved his life, so necessary respect was essential.

I looked at his spine and smiled calmly, "Uncle, is your injury almost healed?"

Iwashita Suigo nodded, "I can move now, but I

still . Mr. Nak's medical skills are truly remarkable. Several of my friends who saw the X-rays said

that a spinal injury like that was beyond saving, and I'd be bedridden for the rest of my life. But Dr. Nak

restored my mobility with just one surgery."

The beautiful woman beside me said, "Junxiong, half a month has passed since Mr. Nak mentioned three months

. Do you think we should have Mr. Nak check on Dad again so he can recover even better?"

"Alright, I'll talk to Nak and ask him to come and check on Uncle in the next few days,"

I said after a moment's thought.

Iwashita Suigo's recovery was indeed slower than I had expected, probably

because .

As a doctor, the figures I'm using are very conservative. In reality, young people in their twenties and thirties

can walk again in just two months and recover to normal size in three months. However, Iwashita Suigo's

spine is still somewhat fragile and needs further treatment to promote healing.

"Mr. Nak is so busy, how could he come all this way to see me?"

Iwashita Junichi wasn't as generous as his daughter. He shook his head repeatedly, saying, "Anyway, I don't have anything else to do.

After arranging a time with Mr. Nak, I'll go by myself. I know where Suzuki Private Hospital is."

"Hmm..."

Haruka, realizing this wasn't very polite, readily agreed.

I naturally smiled. If Haruka were in the Iwashita group, she would definitely be decisive and ruthless, but

at home, she has the carefree and somewhat absent-minded personality of a young girl, occasionally a little willful—that's precisely

what .

"Junxiong, I invited you here today because my uncle recently bought some rough stones. I heard you're quite

skilled at appraising them, so I wanted to ask you to take a look,"

said Iwashita Mizugo. "Also, I wanted to invite you to my home for a casual meal. Haruka is

always busy with the Iwashita Group's affairs and doesn't even go on dates with her boyfriend. Inviting you over so our family

can have a simple meal together will make things more lively."

While Haruka's earlier mention of us being family was her true feeling, Iwashita Mizugo's

words were purposeful. He very much hoped I would become his son-in-law, because from any perspective,

Haruka and I being together would be of immense benefit to the Iwashita family and the Iwashita Group.

After some thought, I said gently, "By the way, Uncle, Haruka, PS II sales started today. Do

you know the details?"

Because of Yuko and Kana's misuse of their positions, Sony had taken full control of

the operations . Furthermore, Inagawa Satoru's previous mistake had resulted in the Inagawa Trading Company being forced to return, so the Iwashita Group

was even less likely to know.

Unexpectedly, Iwashita Suigo nodded. "Mr. Morita called tonight

to congratulate us. I heard it's a huge success?"

"Yes."

I recounted the events of the day in the three Nordic countries in detail, leaving Iwashita Suigo and his

daughter amazed. Even Iwashita Junichi, who came in later, listened with great excitement.

"Because we got off to such a great start on the first day, our funds will be very plentiful. Plus,

Sony has already transferred the $120 million reward to Yuko and Kana's accounts, so

tomorrow we can start the first round of profit sharing with the Iwashita group."

I added this good news at the end.

"No, no way," Iwashita Suigo quickly shook his head. "Although I wasn't involved in the Nordic campaign, I know

you spent hundreds of millions of dollars on advertising. We've only just received our first payout; we need to

cover those expenses before we can share the profits!"

The beautiful woman's pink lips moved, as if she wanted to speak, but I stopped her with a

look , and her gaze towards me became both charming and alluring.

Iwashita Suigo was currently recovering from an injury, so he didn't know that

after , I had already given half to Haruka, and since they only invested $50 million, they had already made a profit of $10

million.

The Iwashita group's territory has expanded several times over recently, and in such a complex place as Tokyo,

it's unrealistic to think about making a fortune right away. Even yakuza organizations need initial investment. The beautiful boss was already

struggling financially, and seeing that her boyfriend was giving her money, she didn't hesitate to use it.

I've never told Haruka about our spending on PS II.

Now that Haruka heard from her father that the total cost reached several hundred million, and even under such circumstances, I

still thought of her first and gave her some emergency funds. The beautiful woman's heart was filled with sweet joy. Sweet as she

was, the beautiful woman knew that now was not the time to divide the profits. She gently shook my hand and said,

"Alright, Toshio, since Dad said so, you should keep it for now. Although those two young ladies trust

you, they are still outsiders. Pay them back when you have the money!"

The five hundred million US dollars I took out was all my personal savings. From advertising to purchasing PS II, only fifty million

remained .

Including the investments from the Inagawa-kai and the Iwashita-gumi, as well as half of the compensation from the Inagawa-kai, the total cost was a whopping $600 million.

But despite the high cost, the profits were also substantial.

Sony's bonus alone was $120 million, and with sales continuing to boom, adding another $50 million

in bonuses would be a piece of cake.

Then we bought 1.1 million PS IIs from Sony at $300 each,

a total value of $330 million. We also had exclusive sales rights to the

game discs, which would generate $100 million in revenue from those PS IIs.

These two items combined perfectly offset our expenses.

Aside from a potential revenue of around $200 million during the peak sales period, the rest would come from steady

sales in the three Nordic countries. This revenue might not be huge, but it was ultimately

the result .

Since Haruka said so, I couldn't tell her father that all the investment was mine, so I just

smiled and agreed to her suggestion.

Today, the Iwashita family prepared a steak dinner. Perhaps it's because Iwashita Suigo thinks that since I

came back , my favorite food must be Western! Thinking back, my dates with Haruka

have always involved either steak or Spanish cuisine, no wonder they arranged it this way.

Japanese beef is renowned, considered top-tier quality at least in Asia, and

even more popular with the wealthy than Australian and New Zealand beef.

The size of the steak is important; ideally, it should be about the size of a person's palm, accompanied by

carrots , onions, and eggs. This constitutes a steak set meal,

but the difference in ingredients and preparation elevates its perceived quality.

The chef at the Iwashita family uses Matsusaka beef, known for its tender texture and

beautiful , making it exceptional for both grilling and steak.

The four steaks were served with four different drinks: a glass of lemonade,

a glass of Shaoxing wine, a glass of Japanese sake, and a glass of Mexican liqueur.

While Western cuisine traditionally favors red meat with white wine and white meat with red wine, when everyone is enjoying themselves

at home, such formalities are largely ignored.

Junichi Iwashita was adept at creating a lively atmosphere. During the meal, he recounted many amusing anecdotes from his gang's adventures. Before

we knew it , half an hour had passed, and we finished our main course. Some drank tea, while others ate dessert.

At my father's prompting, Junichi Iwashita summoned a servant, who brought over five

rough stones of varying sizes from a nearby room. They were placed on a large plaque on the tatami mat in the living room.

I laughed at the way the stones were arranged.

They had arranged them almost like the jadeite auction at the Imperial Hotel, with a

small plaque next to each stone also placed beside it.

I examined the stones that Iwashita had bought. The five stones weren't particularly expensive, totaling around three million

US dollars . However, they were all from old mines: two from Daika and three from Nanqi. One of each had

been cut open, and the green of the jadeite shimmered under the light.

I walked over and examined each piece of jade. The others, including Iwashita Suigo, watched quietly as I

appraised the stones. Even Haruka, who wasn't particularly interested in jade gambling, stared intently at me,

a smile occasionally appearing on her face.

My father and brother were looking at the stones, but she was only looking at her lover.

A few minutes later, I sat back down next to Haruka and gently shook my head.

"How is it?"

Iwashita Junichi couldn't help but ask.

"They look alright on the outside, but the actual situation isn't optimistic,"

I said bluntly. "Especially the two that have been opened; the light transmission inside is very poor, and the surrounding veins

are also not well-defined. I estimate they'd be worth at least two or three hundred thousand. Of the remaining three, only

the smallest one from Nanqi is somewhat better. Nanqi rough stones are bright in color, but the beginning and end are dark, and the spots

and patterns are very messy. However, if we're right, we might get a 70% water content green jadeite."

"Could ours be the bright green?"

Junichi Iwashita seemed to know a bit about rough stones. Even 5% water content bright green jadeite is rare these days, let alone 70% water content

bright green jadeite. If it yields a fist-sized piece or a jadeite band over 30 centimeters long, it would be worth at least a million

US dollars.

"Nonsense! Look at this jade stone, how could it possibly yield a vibrant green?"

Iwashita Mizugo scolded his son. "If it were vibrant green, would Junxiong say it's bad?"

I smiled and nodded, "Uncle is right. This Southern Qi jade stone isn't a seven-tenths-point vibrant green. From my

observation, the jade inside won't be too bad. We'll know once it's cut open. At least we won't lose money."

What I saw inside was a piece of purple-water jade the size of a baby's fist. The purple was very

clear . It belonged to the best quality among colored jade stones below the icy type. It was perfect for making pendants.

I could make five or six, which could sell for around five or six hundred thousand US dollars.

Iwashita Mizugo laughed, "Alright, let's cut the stone later."

In short, Iwashita Mizugo's jade gambling was a failure. In the end, he would only get back

a third of the three million US dollars. However, he wasn't in a bad mood. It made me feel that jade gambling

wasn't a big deal for him.

Sure enough, while sipping the tea brewed by Haruka, Iwashita Suigo slowly said, "Actually, I was

n't very interested in jade gambling. Last time I went to the jade auction, it was only because Mr. Inagawa invited me...

But there, a small business owner from a company that manufactures equipment for Toyota actually cut out a basketball-

sized piece of jade with the numbers 'Fu Lu Shou' (福禄寿) and 'Sancai' (三彩), which piqued the interest of several of us. We bought quite a few pieces, and as a result,

many of us lost money on the spot. The remaining pieces were ones I wasn't particularly optimistic about; getting a few hundred thousand US dollars would be

pretty good ."

Haruka frowned slightly, "Inagawa Masakiyo has been enjoying spending time with you lately, Dad."

Iwashita Suigo smiled, "What am I? Isn't he doing this because of Toshio?"

"Hmph!"

Haruka's face suddenly became charming, "Toshio, you're quite valued,

aren't you? The Inagawa-kai chairman's daughter-in-law has been given to you. Congratulations..."

Even Iwashita Junichi could hear the murderous intent in his sister's words. He quickly picked up his wine glass and turned his head to the side.

"Dad, come on, let's have a drink. The weather is really nice today!"

Iwashita Suigo casually clinked glasses with his son and laughed, "I'm getting old. I can't hear

or see clearly after a little alcohol. I guess I'll have to exercise more in the future."

Unlike the feigned ignorance of the father and son, the beautiful woman's alluring eyes were fixed on me.

I had interrogated her once before, and it seemed that even those beauties not yet in my household couldn't help but feel a little

jealous . Although I knew I wouldn't force myself on a beautiful young woman I didn't know, I still felt uneasy.

"Chairman Inagawa didn't even say anything before Ms. Makimura came to my house, almost startling me,"

I honestly said. "But I didn't touch her. After letting her stay overnight, I sent her to help out at Kyoka's

place , and I haven't seen her since."

Seeing my clear eyes, Haruka knew I wasn't lying, and felt much happier.

She knew she couldn't act like a shrew, so her voice softened: "Anyway, I don't care, you

can't have her..."

I shrugged: "Don't worry, she was just coerced by Inagawa Masakiyo. Ms. Makimura is doing

very well at Suzuki Private Hospital now, and I won't bother her."

"That's good..."

Haruka nodded and smiled. "Seeing how nice you are, I'll reward you with a cup of tea..."

As she spoke, she handed me the freshly brewed green tea.

Seeing that the storm hadn't escalated, Iwashita Suigo changed the subject to ease the awkwardness: "

Toshio , speaking of which, although the president was the most prominent person that day, that Sun Zhenyi was also extraordinary,

taking twenty rough stones in one go. I heard he wasn't just there on the first day, but he was present at all seven days of the rough stone auction, investing

over two hundred million US dollars!"

Two hundred million US dollars? I was taken aback for a moment, then laughed. "He's certainly willing to spend money."

"What's the use of just being willing to spend money? The Koreans have been causing trouble in Japan lately, and this descendant of Koreans

has suffered quite a bit."

Junichi Iwashita said with a hint of disdain. "Perhaps he hopes to

change his status by actively participating in the activities of Japanese businessmen!"

In Japan, South Korea is also called South Korea, while North Korea is called North Korea. Of course,

South Korea is a somewhat derogatory term, which has caused many South Koreans to protest, but just like many Japanese

people call China "Shina," the protests are ineffective.

"I don't think he's just fooling around."

Mizugo Iwashita shook his head. "Junichi, you must remember that no successful person should be underestimated. Sun Zhenyi is a

self-made man; he would never waste his own money. He must have another purpose."

"Dad, could it be that he wants to become famous in Japan through his success in jade gambling?"

Haruka asked calmly.

"That's possible,"

Iwashita Mizugo chuckled. "Speaking of which, his beautiful appraiser was quite good. She cut three rough stones that day, making

a small profit on two, and the last one directly revealed a light red icy jadeite, worth at least five million US dollars.

However , that day, the 'Fu Lu Shou' (Fortune, Prosperity, Longevity) and 'Sancai' (Three Colors) stones were the most eye-catching, overshadowing his success."

I smiled slightly. Sun Zhenyi bought so many rough stones, undoubtedly hoping to find the best ones to participate in

the "Unity of All" conference.

It seems Sun Zhenyi knows how to use what's available. I wonder where the others will find their rough stones?

And what kind of rare jadeite will they bring?

It's truly something to look forward to!
