The Kyoto Bubble Era: It started with selling off hundreds of millions of property

On the evening of January 14, 1990, there was the Tomowa open-air restaurant in Sennichimae, Chuo-ku, Osaka.

The open-air restaurant on the top floor is the most high-end dining place in Youhe Commercial Building. It has a bright starry sky above and a piano in the center. A piano player specially hired from abroad is playing soothing music.

There were only two of them on the entire top floor, and the rest were all beautiful maids in kimonos. They kept serving them food and pouring wine, and they knelt on the ground and served them attentively.

"The father-in-law of the Asano branch president was the president of the Owada branch at the same time. The two had a breakup due to competition for the position of branch president. It was also because of his obstruction that the Owada branch president wasted three years in the branch."

Wearing gold-rimmed glasses, the young man with an upright appearance and a smile poured himself a glass of wine and said with a faint smile,

"Kenji Owada, 47 years old, is a native of Osaka. He graduated from Osaka University with a major in finance. He has served as the president of the Osaka branch for five years. After catching up with the Kyoto branch this year, he has already locked up a seat on the board of directors! "

"Aosuke, this is a rare promotion to skip the position of executive director and directly serve as a director of the board of directors! Oh, by the way, he is also a member of Gennai's progressive faction. This time the obstruction of Asano Naoto was planned by him. of."

"So that's it, because he has been stuck for three years, so he also wants to stick to others? He is really a vindictive guy." Kitahara Sosuke and his best friend Hashimoto Shota clinked their wine glasses and drank them all in one gulp.

In his previous life, he later reached a relatively high position, and he no longer had pure friendship.

In fact, this world is not without true friendship, but it must be based on a reciprocal relationship.

Only on the premise that abilities, family background, resources, etc. are equal, can two people have a solid friendship.

Just like love, some things will always go bad and taste bad when they reach the top.

The classmates and friends with whom he was very close in his previous life became servile and servile after he gradually got rid of them, and they were no longer so open-minded when meeting each other. Over time, they became strangers.

He hasn't reached the highest point yet, and when he thinks about the possible coldness of the high place, Kitahara Sosuke feels very complicated.

But now that he has decided to take this path in this life, he will no longer hesitate. If he is really lonely, then he will become a lone wolf that disrupts RB!

"So I advise you not to provoke the president of Owada Branch. He is a man who is determined to retaliate. Even though Asano Naoto has gained the favor of Executive Man Ito and successfully completed this year's performance, he is still stuck for half a year!"

Hashimoto Shota, who works in the Human Resources Department, has seen too much power struggles and intrigues, so he admires and fears Owada Kenji even more.

Such a person is very reliable as a friend, but once he becomes an enemy, he becomes a nightmare.

In a way, he is very similar to the smiling guy opposite him.

"I have no intention of going against the president of Owada Branch, and as you said, he will soon go to the head office to become a director. I want to go against him, but he is no longer here either." Kitahara Sosuke laughed and picked up the A piece of fried pork cutlet was thrown into his bowl, "But when you say it like this, I understand. So what happened to Ito Man, the Yamada group and Inoue Logistics?"

"I must have owed you something in my previous life. It's really impossible to take advantage of you. Just a few pieces of information, and I've been working as a coolie for you for so long!"

Hashimoto Shota muttered and pushed a thick document bag to him.

"Everything you want is here. To put it simply, the Yamada-gumi is the toilet of Executive Ito Man. A lot of his money that needs to be cleaned up in Osaka is handled by the Yamada-gumi. As for Ito Man Co., Ltd., it nominally belongs to his younger brother Ito Manpei. Hiding is actually one of his assets. There is also the matter of Inoue Logistics."

Speaking of this, Shota Hashimoto, who had been smiling slightly, also stopped smiling.

"Don't touch it again, Sosuke."

He didn't say much else and just ate the vegetables in silence.

"Even you." Kitahara Sosuke frowned. The other person was the son of the Prime Minister. If he remembered correctly, although Hashimoto Ryutaro was forced to step down from the Liberal Democratic Party due to his poor decision-making during this period, and he himself also left the center of power, this man The strongman who was very friendly to China still succeeded in taking office in 1996, formed a cabinet, and became the prime minister!

Even his family background avoids matters related to Inoue Logistics. The forces entangled in it most likely belong to the core of the consortium!

"Eat food, eat food. You guy, I heard you made tens of billions without saying a word. It's great. I can't make money even if I work for 10,000 years. I'm envious. I must be serious this time when I come to Osaka." I'll kill you!"

Shota Hashimoto was drinking and eating, and changed the topic with a smile.

"It's just a bunch of houses, and most of them don't belong to me." Kitahara Sosuke took a sip of wine and cast his eyes on the piano. The music became more exciting, and the maid beside him knelt down to pour him wine. , when she leaned over, she revealed a seductive scene inside her empty kimono.

They are all members of the Hashimoto family.

Kitahara Sosuke also didn't know until he arrived here that the major shareholder of Yuwa Commercial Building was the Hashimoto family of the Kurosaki family. This was the place where many senior figures of the Hashimoto family met.

As expected of a country controlled by consortiums and big families.

"Speaking of which, Sosuke, what are you going to do with these houses? I've heard about that old woman named Ogami, she's just a goddess who doesn't know anything. Speaking of which, she invested her money in your Kitahara Investment and even got a decent salary. There is no entrustment agreement, 30 billion is really outrageous. Sometimes when I look at this prosperous RB, I always feel it is too unreal. It seems like a pig can make money in RB during this period!"

Hashimoto Shota asked the very beautiful kimono maid to sit next to him. Here, he was no longer the head of the Human Resources Department of Tosan Head Office, but the second son of the Hashimoto family, a true princeling.

Kitahara Sosuke ignored the hand he put into his kimono and said with a leisurely smile: "As long as you stand on the wind, who says pigs can't take off? Shota, you're not here to be a lobbyist for others, right?"

"Aosuke." Hashimoto Shota was stunned. He was frightened by his friend's keen insight. He didn't remember that he was so smart before. After not seeing each other for a few years, he seemed to be a different person. The grassroots are really training people!

"Now that you've discovered it, I'll tell you straight away. I was entrusted by someone to acquire your property. In terms of price."

Hashimoto Shota was a little embarrassed.

In fact, he refused at first. When he heard the other party's request, he subconsciously wanted to say no.

With this kind of price, he clearly wanted to kill Kitahara Sosuke.

"Your cost is 33 billion, and his price is 40 billion." At this point, Hashimoto Shota stopped moving his hands, and the girl in his arms looked up at him with charming eyes, "Fuck, it's really Annoying!”

"Aren't you going to refuse?" Kitahara Sosuke frowned. Are you treating yourself like a pig?

The real estate is now worth more than 70 billion, and the other party wants to take it away for 40 billion?

"He will pay you in full, but really, to be honest, it's too little. You can refuse, Aosuke. Of course, if you agree, I will take you to see his people, and you should still get It’s a lot of compensation, but in the end it’s a huge loss.” Shota Hashimoto was so angry that his teeth itched.

If that person's status wasn't so high, he wouldn't even have mentioned this matter to Kitahara Sosuke.

"Can't you even say the other party's name?" Kitahara Sosuke frowned. Being able to have a close friend act as a lobbyist shows that he has a close relationship with the Hashimoto family. He is either a top figure in politics or a financial group.

Are people like this also eyeing such a small multi-billion dollar property?

"You can only say it after you agree." Shota Hashimoto shook his head, then moved closer to him, "He wants these houses because of the land."

"Land?" Kitahara Sosuke raised his eyebrows. This is an interesting thing. RB's house has permanent property rights and includes the land below. It would be intriguing if the other party wants real estate related to land.

Hashimoto Shota took out a piece of information and spread it out: "See for yourself, Sosuke."

This is a schematic diagram of the distribution of his more than 300 properties, of which nearly 200 are scattered in the Shibaura area of ​​Minato District, Tokyo. Once shown, he understood.

Juliana Tokyo Nightclub!

Affiliated to Nissho Iwai Club, it was an iconic entertainment club that opened in 1991 and closed in 1994.

It covers an area of ​​1,200 square meters and can accommodate up to 2,000 customers. Because of its luxurious facilities, it has become a symbolic landmark symbolizing the luxurious lifestyle during the heyday of the bubble economy!

Nissho Iwai is a large trading company under the Sanwa Consortium, and the Sanwa Consortium is the youngest among the six major consortiums. It is extremely weak in heavy industry and trading companies, and has always hoped to take advantage of the bubble period to make further progress!

"Mitsuwa," Kitahara Sosuke showed a slight smile.

The girl who was tired of being in Hashimoto Shota's arms trembled suddenly, and then Hashimoto Shota also looked embarrassed and shocked!
