I run a tofu shop, and you want me to go to Akina Mountain?

The maid in white socks said respectfully.

"Ah."

"Then I'm sorry to trouble you."

Takumi thanked him.

The maid shop has three floors. The first floor is the restaurant, the second floor has a card game area, private rooms and a rest area, and the third floor is the office area, including the finance office, logistics office and management office. Although the store is not big, it is fully functional and the maids can also rest on the third floor.

"Dong dong dong..."

When they reached the third floor, the maid in knee-high socks brought Takumi to the door of the office marked "General Manager" and knocked on it a few times.

"Please come in."

A pleasant voice came from the office.

It's a woman!

Judging from the voice, she is still a beauty!

This was somewhat surprising to Takumi.

"Please come in."

A maid with twin ponytails and wearing white half-length socks gestured to Fujiwara Takumi to come in.

"Well, thank you."

Fujiwara Takumi nodded slightly in greeting.

The waitresses in this maid shop are really nice and pretty, which makes Fujiwara Takumi more curious about the beautiful boss - what kind of woman can open this maid shop that is far superior to the general market. Even the name of the shop is quite interesting, called "Ichiku".

This is not a hint,

It is a clear declaration!

With a creaky sound, Fujiwara Takumi pushed the door open and walked in.

Seeing this, the maid stepped aside, obviously in awe of her boss.

"Hello, sir."

"Excuse me, are you here to discuss cooperation with me?"

The beautiful boss asked directly when she saw Fujiwara Takumi coming in.

The moment she saw Fujiwara Takumi, a hint of surprise flashed across her face. She was obviously impressed by Fujiwara Takumi's handsomeness.

Throughout Gunma Prefecture, Takahashi Ryosuke's portraits and his endorsed products are everywhere, but compared with Fujiwara Takumi's appearance, Takahashi Ryosuke's looks pale in comparison! Fujiwara Takumi is just too handsome!

And Fujiwara Takumi was also shocked by the beauty of this beautiful boss.

Very charming.

This beautiful boss with blonde hair, blue eyes, fair skin, delicate features and dressed in a black business suit looks capable and very elegant. She is even more outstanding than Sato Mako and is simply stunningly beautiful!

Sato Mako seems to be the line between a beautiful woman and an extremely beautiful woman. Those who surpass her are truly extremely beautiful, and those who are slightly inferior to her can be called the best.

"Yes."

"I want to invest in your maid shop, or buy shares."

Fujiwara Takumi directly stated his purpose.

"What the hell?"

The beautiful boss was stunned.

"My name is Xia Li. May I ask your name?" the beautiful boss asked after introducing herself.

"Fujiwara Takumi."

Fujiwara Takumi answered.

"Fujiwara Takumi?"

"Haha, you have the same name as the Akina racer who has become famous in Gunma Prefecture recently."

The beautiful boss Xia Li covered her mouth and laughed.

Fujiwara Takumi sat down and looked at Xia Li calmly.

"This...you...you couldn't be...the 86 racing driver from Akina Mountain, Fujiwara Takumi!" Xia Li looked at Fujiwara Takumi carefully, feeling that he looked familiar, and suddenly raised her voice and exclaimed.

As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Li hurriedly started looking for a newspaper on her desk.

When I found the newspaper, I saw a report about Fujiwara Takumi with a photo of him next to it, and he looked exactly like the man in front of me!

That’s right! The Fujiwara Takumi in front of her was the one driving the 86 in Akina Mountain!

"Exactly."

Fujiwara Takumi admitted, his expression slightly helpless, after all, he is really too famous now.

"Takumi-san, can I ask why you want to invest in my 'Ichiku' maid shop?"

Xia Li is worthy of being called a strong woman in the workplace. She can completely separate business from racing, suppress her inner excitement, continue to discuss business, and ask questions sincerely.

“Maid shops have great potential for development.”

"It's a big business opportunity, and I want to get a piece of it."

Fujiwara Takumi stated his intentions succinctly.

This statement is true.

"Takumi-san, my maid shop 'Iku' is not short of funds at the moment. Can you give me a convincing reason for me to accept your investment and shareholding?" Xia Li continued to ask with a smile. She admired Fujiwara Takumi's straightforward attitude. The most annoying thing in doing business is those polite words.

"I have enough funds to continue to support you so that you can open maid shops one after another."

“Not only in Gunma Prefecture, but in the future in central Tokyo, all of Japan, Asia, and even the world.”

Fujiwara Takumi said seriously.

This is not a joke, nor is it a fantasy.

A global chain of maid shops is not impossible.

Once you become famous, anything is possible.

After hearing what Fujiwara Takumi said, Xia Li's expression turned serious.

It was at this time that she really began to consider the matter of allowing Fujiwara Takumi to invest.

"I can invest 10 million first."

Fujiwara Takumi said again.

In the 1990s, this amount of money was extremely considerable.

Ten million yen would be equivalent to hundreds of millions in the 21s!

"really?"

Xia Li was really moved at this moment.

As a businessman, who doesn’t have ambitions in his heart?

"Hehe, if I didn't intend to confirm it, why would I come to you?" Fujiwara Takumi said with a smile.

"As for the shares, what proportion do you want?"

Charlie asked.

"Sixty percent. If the second store can quickly make a profit and recover the investment, I will immediately give you another 20 million to open two new stores." Fujiwara Takumi replied.

In the world of racing,

Maid culture is also very popular.

As consumption levels rise in the future, maid shops will surely become extremely popular.

Even now, the maid shop has attracted many customers.

"make a deal!"

After five minutes of contemplation, Charlie nodded solemnly.

"When you get the entire contract ready, call me." Fujiwara Takumi said to Xia Rili.

"Ok."

Xia Rili nodded and agreed.

After Fujiwara Takumi and Xia Rili finalized some details, they got up to say goodbye and drove his AE86 to find Jingye Sora. In the evening, he made an appointment with An Minako to spend time together until ten o'clock in the evening. Then he met Shiraishi again, and finally went to school after waking up.

This weekend was busy and enjoyable.

Thanks to the improvement in his physical fitness, Fujiwara Takumi can meet with several female friends non-stop in one day and still be at ease and in full control.

On the way to school, Fujiwara Takumi kept seeing big posters posted everywhere, on which were pictures of him and Takahashi Ryosuke. The content was about the peak showdown in Gunma Prefecture to be held at 86 o'clock tonight in Akina Mountain, Fujiwara Takumi versus Takahashi Ryosuke, a battle between the old and Mazda FC spanning more than ten years.

"Hey."

"You've done a good job of publicity, Takahashi Ryosuke. You're really good at this kind of showmanship. Aren't you afraid of losing your reputation? If you want to rise to a higher level of fame, you also have to take the huge risk of failure under the spotlight."

Looking at those posters, Fujiwara Takumi shook his head and smiled, appearing a little disdainful.

Apart from Fujiwara Takumi and a few people at the gas station, the only person who knew that Takahashi Ryosuke had challenged Fujiwara Takumi was Takahashi Ryosuke himself.

And they kept their mouths shut about this challenge. Even if someone leaked the secret, no one would believe it even if Koichiro Iketani or Itsuki Takeuchi told them. So the only person who could have leaked the news that the two would hold a downhill race at Akina Mountain at 11 o'clock tonight was Ryosuke Takahashi himself.

Only if Ryosuke Takahashi personally promoted the media publicity, would the posters have the potential to be spread throughout Gunma Prefecture.
