Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 109 Two Requests

Lu Shaohua, who had taken the flight twice, was already used to it. He just took a nap on the plane, and when he woke up, the plane had already landed at Tokyo Airport.

As soon as he walked out of the airport exit, Liu Mingzhang waved to Lu Shaohua and his three companions with a smile, as if he was afraid that Lu Shaohua and the others would not see him. "Over here, over here..."

Lu Shaohua had informed Liu Mingzhang in advance which flight he would take from Hong Kong to Japan, so Liu Mingzhang came to pick him up at the airport. There was nothing he could do about it, as none of the three of them could speak Japanese, and they didn't know where Liu Mingzhang would buy his house, so they had to ask him to lead the way.

When Lu Shaohua and his party walked through the hall and out of the airport, Liu Mingzhang first walked to a Toyota car and opened the trunk, then turned around and signaled Zhang Qingyuan and others to put their gifts in. Then he told Lu Shaohua where the car came from. It turned out that the car belonged to his classmate when he was studying abroad. Since he came to Japan, he didn't buy a car at all, and he had to pick up Lu Shaohua and his party at the airport, so Liu Mingzhang had to ask his classmate to borrow the car.

Lu Shaohua just nodded calmly and listened quietly. From the moment Liu Mingzhang started talking about the car, he knew he would have more to say, and it turned out to be just as he expected...

After introducing the cars in one breath, Liu Mingzhang continued after a while. "My classmate is of Chinese and Japanese descent. Like me, he majored in finance. He is not satisfied with his job and now stays at home with nothing to do..."

The words were so clear, how could Lu Shaohua not understand? Forget it, he interrupted Liu Mingzhang and continued. "Let the classmate you mentioned come to see me tomorrow!"

This was not to give Liu Mingzhang face, but Lu Shaohua really needed manpower, and he needed manpower from Japan. After all, having someone familiar with Japan to help could save a lot of trouble. However, not just anyone could be employed by him, so he would have to wait until they met to decide.

……

The villa bought by Liu Mingzhang is located near the Tokyo Stock Exchange. It takes only 20 minutes to walk from the villa to the stock exchange. If you drive, you can reach it within 10 minutes. The layout of the villa is similar to that of Hong Kong villas. They are two-story high and surrounded by walls. There is a small swimming pool in front of the building. The only difference is the inside of the house. There are no Hong Kong people in the hall, and the furniture is different. As for the doors and windows, they are all Japanese style, sliding.

Lu Shaohua took a rough look at the villa. Making money was his primary priority. As for the environment, although he had some requirements, he was not picky.

……

The next morning, Lu Shaohua got up early and ran around the villa until his whole body was wet. Just as he was about to go inside to wash up, a Toyota car drove in from outside. Upon closer inspection, he realized that it was the one that picked him up at the parking lot yesterday.

Just as Lu Shaohua was looking at the car, it had already stopped beside him. The first person to get out was Liu Mingzhang, followed by a young man who looked about the same age as Liu Mingzhang. He had a square face, a crew cut, and a pair of black-framed glasses on his slightly flat nose. Although the glasses concealed his eyes, they could not hide the wisdom that shone in them.

"Come, let me introduce them to you." Liu Mingzhang, as the middleman, spoke first. "This is my senior, his Chinese name is Li Zongen. This is my boss, his last name is Lu."

Liu Mingzhang's introduction was very skillful. He did not introduce his senior's Japanese name, but only his Chinese name. As for Lu Shaohua, he did not want to call him by his full name in this situation. It was not certain whether Li Zongen could work under him now, so he only said his last name.

"Hello!" Li Zongen smiled slightly and simply greeted Lu Shaohua in Chinese. He did not behave like a Japanese, with words like 'please give me your guidance'.

Lu Shaohua nodded in response to him, as if he cherished his words more than gold. He did not speak a word, but waved his hand to signal for him to come in, then turned around and walked inside.

After entering the villa, Lu Shaohua asked Li Zongen and the others to sit down first, and he went to take a hot shower. After a long time, Lu Shaohua took a dry towel, wiped the hair of the young lady, and sat down on the sofa in the hall.

After wiping off the water droplets on his hair, Lu Shaohua put the towel aside and stared at Li Zongen, making him dare not look at him. "I only have two requests. First, keep it confidential and don't reveal any information to the outside world. Second, you must follow the instructions and not let go halfway. Can you do it?"

The first requirement is what every trader must abide by, but Lu Shaohua couldn't help but remind him again. As for the second requirement, it was just in case. If Li Zongen quit at a critical moment, it would be very troublesome. It would not be an easy task to find a temporary replacement.

Li Zongen was silent for a long time. He knew the first request, but he was a little confused about the second one. However, it didn't seem to be a big deal. He was not asked to kill or burn anything. He was just a trader. "No problem. I can do it."

Lu Shaohua believed that the person Liu Mingzhang recommended to him was not a waste. If Li Zongen did not have certain abilities, Liu Mingzhang would never dare to recommend him, so he simply put forward his own request. Of course, he was more confident in his own vision. From the moment Li Zongen got off the car, Lu Shaohua's eyes had never left him.

"Well! I'll ask Mingzhang to get a contract for you to sign tomorrow." Just as Lu Shaohua finished speaking, he heard the sound of shoes rubbing against the stairs. He turned his head and realized that it was the two real estate insiders recruited from Hong Kong.

"Lin Qiquan, He Chengyi, come and sit over here." Liu Mingzhang waved at them, motioning them to come over.

Lu Shaohua already knew their names, because he was the one who selected them when he looked at their resumes, so of course he knew them. However, the two of them did not know who Lu Shaohua was, because Lu Shaohua went to bed as soon as he returned to the villa yesterday, and there was no chance to introduce them.

Liu Mingzhang also knew that Lin Qiquan and He Chengyi did not know Lu Shaohua, so he played the role of middleman for the second time and introduced them to each other.

Lin Qiquan and He Chengyi were surprised to hear that Lu Shaohua was the real boss. Before coming to Japan, they knew from the newspaper that Liu Mingzhang was only the nominal boss of Phoenix Financial Company. They were also secretly guessing who the real boss was, but what they could not imagine was that this mysterious behind-the-scenes boss was actually Lu Shaohua.

Lu Shaohua ignored their surprise. This was what he expected. He waved his hand and said, "Sit down. I have something for you to do."

After hearing Lu Shaohua's words, the two men came to their senses from their surprise, sat down on the sofa, and waited for what to say next. However, they were guessing in their hearts what Lu Shaohua would ask them to do, but whether their guess was correct depended on Lu Shaohua speaking.
