Chapter 880 Return to Tokyo (5) (page 14)
Chapter 880
Island country, Tokyo.
Setagaya Ward is a high-end residential area lined up along the Odakyu Line.
Morning, half past eight.
Edward Deck, who had been waiting in the car for more than two hours, pretended to be patiently reading the newspaper in his hand, but his attention was always focused on the two cars driving behind him.
About half an hour ago, Citibank's "old friend" Howard Marcos passed away.
Where he parked his car, two black Honda cars driven by islanders were parked.
The three islanders who came out of the car were all very strange to Edward Deck.
However, he has been working and living in Asia all year round and does not have "face blindness" towards Asians. He quickly memorized the appearance and characteristics of the three people.
. . .
About half an hour later, it was just after nine o'clock.
Edward Deck looked at the three cars that were slowly stopping in the distance. He thought to himself that it was so lively today, but his expression was extremely dull. After silently writing down the appearance and characteristics of several people, he wrote them all down in the memo he carried with him.
nine thirty.
Kihara Nobunari, who accompanied Toby Olga into the villa early in the morning, finally came out.
He took the initiative to walk to Edward Deck, and after chatting politely for a few words, he looked at the street in the distance and waited silently.
Soon Edward Deck's curiosity was satisfied.
Kihara Nobunari's subordinate Takimoto Kawaichi drove a small van and turned in from a distance.
After the minivan stopped, Takimoto Kawaichi bowed deeply to Kihara Nobunari who was walking over, greeted a deliveryman who came with the truck, and moved several packaging boxes in the truck into the villa. .
After Edward took off his brand new coat, he was just about to step forward to help when he heard Toby's voice~
"Deck!"
"I am here.."
"Where's your coat?"
"Um... What happened in the car?"
"Get dressed quickly and come with me, the boss wants to see you!"
"Okay!" Edward Deck shrugged to Kihara Nobunari apologetically, turned around, took his coat from the car, and followed Toby's footsteps.
. . .
In the villa.
An open space was cleared in the middle of the living room on the first floor, and several groups of sofas were placed around it in a circular shape, facing the same direction.
At this time, David was standing in the C seat in the middle of the living room. He saw Kihara Nobunari, Takimoto Kawaichi and others coming in with a big box, and smiled in surprise.
"Did you really buy it?"
"Is everything going well?"
"Very well, sir."
Takimoto Kawaichi, who had a sense of urgency recently because he was following Nobunari Kihara, nodded and smiled in accented English.
"Oh~ That's good."
David glanced at Kihara Nobunari, who was busy unpacking boxes with his head down, turned around and said sorry to everyone who had entered the "auditorium", and then explained a few words to the little secretary Maggie who was preparing camera equipment~
He walked to the door of the villa, looked at Edward Decker standing next to Toby, and asked.
"Can I call you Edward?"
"Of course, Mr. Coleman."
"You can also call me David. There is no need to be so polite between us."
"Okay, sir." Edward Deck deliberately omitted David's last name this time, but still replied respectfully.
"Haha~" David knew in his heart that his identity had changed unknowingly.
He smiled and walked up to Toby, gently put his arm around her shoulders, and whispered to Edward.
"Toby highly recommended you to me, thinking that you are more suitable than her to stay and work for me in various Asian countries."
"Edward, could you briefly introduce yourself?"
"Ok."
Edward Decker said with a confident smile on his face, raising his head slightly.
"After I came out of the CIA training farm, like Toby, I first went to the kindergarten they call the Tokyo branch and worked as an intern for more than half a year."
"Then I was assigned to Manila in the Philippines and through some connections worked for Henry Leighton Trading Company until I left last month."
"Henry Leighton?" David heard this very strange name and repeated it deliberately and asked.
"it is..?"
Edward continued: "It is a subsidiary of an international trading group company. It was established in 1947. The founder was Henry Leighton himself."
"In 63, Henry Leighton died unexpectedly in a car accident. The company was merged and acquired by Phibro Company and became its subsidiary."
"Phibro?"
“I remember the former chairman of the board of directors of Phibro was Ludwig Jesselson.”
"Toby, is it the Phibro I know?"
"It should be..." Toby Olga thought for a while and replied.
"During his reign, Ludwig Jesselson personally appointed David Tedler, head of Phibro's Asia division in Tokyo."
"Yes, that's it!" David continued with a strange smile.
"Ludwig Jesselson, before retiring, also trained a more ambitious young successor, Mark Ritchie."
"It's just that Mark Rich was dissatisfied with the bonus distribution system of Phibro Company. He left angrily and founded a trading company by himself, and stole a large number of customers from Phibro Company."
David looked at Edward Decker and asked with curiosity in his eyes: "Are you familiar with Mug Rich and David Tedler?"
"I've seen it and been in contact with it, but it doesn't count as familiar."
"So what do you think of them?"
"Uh..." Edward blinked quickly, thought for a few seconds, and replied cautiously.
"Mark Rich expressed his desire for money and power very early on at company gatherings."
"David Tedler is introverted and doesn't like to talk much. He is very good at the company's business and management work. He is a very good successor."
"Oh~" David understood Edward's subtext, nodded with satisfaction, and said.
“Currently, I’m working with Todd Covian at Vitol.”
"If nothing else happens, we will maintain this pleasant cooperative relationship in the next year or even years."
"So, I specially arranged for Kihara Nobunari and Yuri Orlov to establish international trading companies in the island country and Hong Kong respectively. I hope to slowly open up the situation in Asia and lay the foundation for my subsequent plans."
"Edward!"
"Will you stay and help them?"
"willing!"
"What about your family?"
"If you are in trouble, I can find a way to arrange a place for you to stay here so that your family can come and stay with you at any time."
"Okay, thank you, boss." Edward didn't expect that this very young-looking boss would be so thoughtful and nodded happily.
