We are all reborn, who wants to be the richest man?

"Ms. Matsuzaka, please come this way. I'll take you to the ladies' side room to rest."

Seeing Luo Nianzhong greeting Matsuzaka Keiko and Aoki Daisuke, the butler on the side immediately stepped forward.

Luo Nianzhong also gave her a relaxed smile, telling her not to be nervous.

"Go ahead. I'll pick you up when you leave. Have a nice time."

He could feel the panic and uneasiness in Matsusaka Keiko's heart and body. From the moment he entered the door, the sweat in Matsuzaka Keiko's palms soaked Luo Nianzhong's palms.

She might have been too nervous to feel it, but Luo Nianzhong felt it firsthand, thinking that this woman had so much water, her hands were all sweaty.

Luo Nianzhong understands and thinks it's normal. Not to mention the big shots in the room who control the lifeline of the island country, even the pugs outside who tend to be swayed by others are all out of reach in front of artists like them.

If it weren't for him, let alone being politely smiled back by these people, they might not even have the chance to look at you seriously.

"Ms. Matsuzaka, you are so lucky. I rarely say such warm words to my wife."

"Mr. Aoki liked it instantly, so I won't bother you anymore."

Fortunately, she was an actor and did not show her inner panic. In addition, Luo Nianzhong's words seemed to have magic power and made her feel at ease.

She came as Luo Nianzhong's female companion. In order not to embarrass the man she loved, she had to hold on even though she was strong.

Matsuzaka Keiko followed the housekeeper, and Aoki Daisuke invited Luo Nianzhong to sit down.

Although the guests present had returned to the original atmosphere, Luo Nianzhong could feel their eyes glancing here from time to time.

No one present is a fool. When Luo Nianzhong came to Tokyo this time, Daisuke Aoki held a cocktail party for him, and invited the heads of the Sumitomo family and the Yasuda family, plus the president of the Sumitomo Foundation and the five major Shoji families. One of them, the Hatoyama family, would bet that they would be hit and killed by a car if they didn't discuss any major issues.

The reason why these people are looking here is to see if they have a chance to get a piece of the pie.

Although the companies in the consortium all hold shares in each other, and whoever makes a profit always makes a profit, but the profit is divided into large profits and small profits.

A small round table, six people, this is the center of this cocktail party.

After Luo Nianzhong sat down, Yasuda Junichiro personally poured Luo Nianzhong his own fragrant tea.

These Chinese people, even though their words are different, their bodies are very honest.

Rabbit’s tea culture, calligraphy, writing, philosophy, and thoughts are highly praised by the Chinese people in the island country.

In the island country, there are two types of Chinese.

One is the Chinese system, and the other refers to Okinawa Prefecture.

That is, there are a large number of Chinese descendants in the Ryukyu Islands. The most famous are your first love Yui Aragaki and the mystery novelist Keigo Higashino.

The two surnames Araguan and Dongye are real Chinese surnames, and they are also descendants of the emperor.

It is recorded in the history books that they are the descendants of the Zhou Dynasty Emperor Ji, especially the surname Xinyuan, who was the fifteenth son of King Wen of Zhou Dynasty.

According to statistics, there are more than 10,000 people with the surname Aragaki in Rabbit and 40,000 to 50,000 in Higashino.

In the island country, more than 80% of people with the surname Higashino are from Okinawa, and 100% are from Aragaki.

These were all immigrants from Fujian in the late Qing Dynasty, and Ryukyu has always been a vassal state of China. Otherwise, why would their governor come to pay homage to their ancestors and visit their graves?

The other Chinese people are talking about people like Yasuda Junichiro. Not only him, most of the people present are Chinese.

This Chinese refers to the Chinese system, that is, the nobility.

Even though this Chinese system has only existed in the island country for a few decades, it has had a profound impact on the island country.

In 1884, the island country promulgated the Chinese Ordinance, which divided the citizens of the island country into four classes: royal family, Chinese family, clans, and poor people.

The Hua clan is the general name for the daimyo of various places, as well as the civil and military ministers under the emperor. These people are divided into five types of titles: princes, princes, and sons.

After the defeat in World War II, MacArthur, the commander of the beautiful country stationed in the island country, abolished this Chinese system with a single order.

At that time, there were more than 800 Chinese people with titles, and those without titles totaled hundreds of thousands.

Why does such a short-lived Chinese ethnic group have such a profound impact on the island country? That's because the success of the Meiji Restoration allowed the island country to embark on the path to modernization.

Although the island country has abolished the Chinese system, the royal family still established a school. Only descendants of the royal family and the Chinese can go to this school. Every year on the island country, the emperor will hold a banquet with the Chinese during the New Year.

As for why these Chinese people pursue Chinese culture, it is because these Chinese people draw lessons from Confucian culture in their ideology and culture. The most famous one is Wang Yangming’s philosophy of mind.

Even they themselves admit that the success of the Meiji Restoration in the island country is the successful practice of Wang Yangming's philosophy in the island country, so the Chinese in the island country highly respect Chinese culture.

However, there are advantages and disadvantages. It is precisely because the Chinese are as popular as the British aristocrats that many Chinese still have to maintain a noble life even though their economy is not good.

The ten fingers are not stained with mud, and the scales and scales in the building are about them.

“Good tea”. Luo Nianzhong took a sip and put down the teacup.

“Although I don’t have a thorough understanding of tea ceremony, I can feel that Mr. Yasuda’s tea ceremony has the style of a master.

I’ve tasted a lot of Xinyang’s finest Maojian, but as far as tea ceremony is concerned, I’m far behind.”

Junichiro Yasuda, the eighth generation head of the Yasuda family.

Although they are no longer in charge of the consortium they created, no one dares to underestimate their energy.

This is the first time Luo Nianzhong has met the other party. Even when Luo Nianzhong cooperated with the Fuji Foundation, he did not show up.

It can be seen that just like the rumors, the head of the Yasuda family has ignored business, fearing that the family will have waste and ruin the family business.

Unlike several other large families, the Yasuda family has never been prosperous. Junichiro Yasuda’s grandfather made a decision after seeing the limited talents of his father’s generation. The Yasuda family will no longer participate in business management.

But this just gives up the management rights, it does not mean that the family's energy and influence are gone.

"Mr. Luo is so humble. He can tell what kind of tea this is in one sip. It shows that Mr. Luo is also proficient in tea ceremony. I must discuss it if I have the opportunity."

Seeing Yasuda Junichiro's happy and excited look, Luo Nianzhong even doubted whether the other party was a tea addict.

"Okay, I will definitely ask Mr. Yasuda for advice when I have the opportunity."

"Mr. Luo is really a great talent. He has not only made extraordinary achievements in business, but also has great attainments in traditional culture that takes time to settle down."

"Mr. Sumitomo is very polite. I heard that Mr. Sumitomo is very accomplished in calligraphy. I wonder if I will be lucky enough to get a pair to go back and frame."

Are you flattering each other? For these patriarchs of major families who don't care about worldly affairs, they are just like those old Western aristocrats. They spend their days pursuing art, religion, philosophy and so on.

"Haha, Fangfu's calligraphy is indeed like everyone else's. I have a framed calligraphy given to me by Fangfu in my study."

Sumitomo Yoshio, the seventh grandson of Emperor Higashiyama.

The Sumitomo family has been the financial group with the closest relationship to the royal family since ancient times, and the two families have made countless marriages.

It is common for these big families in the island country to get married and cross shareholdings, but there are two surprises, namely the two families in front of them.

The Sumitomo Zaibatsu has too many marriages, both within the major financial groups and with the royal family. Basically, there are very few external son-in-laws like Mitsui Mitsubishi.

As a result, in the 18th century, in order to ensure the bloodline of the Sumitomo family, internal marriages were common. Who made the number of people with the surname Sumitomo less and less?

The Fuji family is just the opposite. The Yasuda family has only been around for a short time. In the early days, they were country bumpkins looked down upon by other consortiums. Even though they are now accepted, their relationships are far less complicated than those of other consortiums.

This is also the reason why Luo Nianzhong didn't want to miss out on cooperating with the Fuji Group. Fuji internally pays more attention to interests.

"If Mr. Luo doesn't dislike it, then I will be disrespectful and embarrassed."

Then Daisuke Aoki asked someone to bring them the Four Treasures of the Study. Without all the pomp and extravagance, he just started swiping ink on the table where they were sitting, which was quite good-tempered.

It was presented to Mr. Luo Nianzhong on the first day of the Jin Dynasty and signed by Yoshio Sumitomo.

Interesting, the content is that Jin Yaori gave it to Mr. Luo Nianzhong without any comments.

Jin Yao Day, also known as Friday, originated in ancient Babylon and is a Western name.

"Good words". Luo Nianzhong didn't know much about calligraphy, but Sumitomo Yoshio's calligraphy gave Luo Nianzhong a very vigorous and grand feeling.

After giving away the words, several people drank tea and chatted again, mostly Luo Nianzhong, Sumitomo Yoshio and Yasuda Junichiro were talking, and the other three people who occasionally participated were mainly the three of them.

After finishing another topic, Shozo Hota, the president and general manager of the Sumitomo Foundation, found an opportunity.

"Mr. Luo, Mr. Aoki said that you have a big deal to discuss, even the Fuji Foundation can't afford it. I don't know what kind of big deal it is. I'm very curious."

It seems that some people can't sit still.
