Chapter 509 Between Father and Son
"Yes, half of the supplies were sold to the Takeshita family at low prices."
On the TV, Ichiro Kuroda was talking with a solemn and stern expression. He seemed to be well aware of the recent rush to buy supplies in Miyagi Prefecture.
This special interview program led by Saito Ryuya is broadcast repeatedly on Kitahara TV. Although Kitahara TV cannot be compared with well-known TV stations such as TV Tokyo and Sakura TV, its popularity among the public has skyrocketed since the Tokyo Trial was broadcast live. The rise, coupled with the previous exclusive premiere of "Tokyo Love Story", already has a certain audience.
After nearly a week of looping broadcasts, people across the country have learned more or less about some anecdotes about Miyagi Prefecture's frenzied robbery of supplies. Combined with the recent skyrocketing prices, some people have begun to suspect corruption within the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry, Industry, and Industry.
Ichiro Kuroda clearly pointed out that the Agricultural Federation Association sold reserve materials to businessmen, but the Prime Minister's Cabinet and the relevant investigation departments have been slow to speak or take action. This has quickly accumulated a lot of public dissatisfaction with the Prime Minister's Cabinet.
Looking at Ichiro Kuroda on the TV, Noboru Takeshita's expression was very ugly. He glanced at the Takeshita letter beside him and asked lightly: "How was the conversation with President Kita?"
"Uncle Jitian is busy cleaning up those rubles recently and has troublesome financial problems. He doesn't have time to chat with me." Takeshita answered truthfully. He was also very uneasy. The 696 billion rubles obtained from selling national supplies included 50% of the Takeshita family's property has been exchanged for 396 billion rubles through Sumitomo Bank and some of its affiliated financial institutions.
This is almost 28 trillion yen.
But of the remaining 300 billion rubles, only more than 60 billion have been spent so far, leaving 240 billion in hand.
The reason lies in the continuous depreciation of the ruble.
Even with the support of the Sumitomo Foundation, many people are unwilling to continue to absorb the ruble, which has depreciated by nearly 10% at this time.
If this trend continues, by the end of December, the ruble will depreciate by at least 30% compared to when they entered the market. The original 696 billion rubles can be exchanged for 58 trillion yen. By then, it should only be worth 40 trillion yen, excluding Ao Kitahara. Despite the agreed cost of 28 trillion yen, Takeshita Nobu only earned 12 trillion yen.
Of course, this profit is beyond the reach of Sosuke Kitahara.
"Idiot, if Ichiro Kita is not free, why don't you go talk to Sonoko Kita?" Noboru Takeshita looked like he hated iron.
Takeshita Nobu was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said: "Sonoko is just a woman, how can she understand the affairs of us men?"
"."
Noboru Takeshita resisted the urge to curse, looked at him, and said word by word,
"Did you know that Moonlight Village was originally established in the name of Yuanzi? This shows that President Jitian is determined to cultivate his daughter. Yuanzi is also his only daughter and will definitely control a large amount of the Jitian family's property in the future. Have you seen Jitian? The Tian family’s son-in-law and adopted son?”
Takeshita Xin recalled it, and it really didn’t happen.
Generally, a large family with only the eldest daughter and no heirs would consider adopting a son-in-law when the head of the family is young and powerful, in order to properly dispose of the family property.
If the Jitian family openly recruits sons-in-law and adopted sons, like the Miyazawa family did, there will definitely be a lot of rumors.
"Forget it, make an appointment with the garden tomorrow to check on the situation. By the way, have you seen the news about the recent shortage of supplies and rising prices?" Noboru Takeshita picked up the teacup, and Nobu Takeshita immediately ran over to pour him tea.
"Of course I have. I work in Tosan, and my colleagues around me have been talking about this. They looked at me intentionally or unintentionally, as if they wanted to confirm whether our Takeshita family had really become 'traitors'. Hmph, Sosuke Kitahara thought so. Can failure be prevented by shifting conflicts?”
Takeshita didn't take it seriously. Price increases are a reality, but a mere 20% increase is far from the real bottom line of the people. Now it's just that things in Miyagi Prefecture are a bit tense.
"Axin, do you know why Kitahara Sosuke did this?" Noboru Takeshita looked at his son, suddenly a little disappointed, and asked in a low voice.
Takeshita Shin was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Don't you just want to make us sick? We did take half of the supplies from the Agricultural Federation Association, but we actually paid the money. The contract was clearly written in black and white. There was no Anything is illegal. If I have to say anything, it’s just a group of idiots from the Agricultural Federation Association who abused their power for convenience. What does it have to do with us?”
"Father, the Agricultural Federation Association still has half of the supplies in hand. You see, the matter in Miyagi County is so big, hasn't it been resolved quickly?" Takeshita Nobu himself poured a cup of tea and saw Noboru Takeshita glanced over, silently put down his tea cup, sat up straight and continued, "He wants to ruin our reputation, but the storm will eventually pass, and he won't get much benefit. At most, things will cause a fuss. It's too serious, and we will He held a press conference and said that he would raise supplies to fill the granary in the later stage."
Anyway, after making it through the end of the year, I won all of Kitahara Sosuke's net worth and some supplies, wouldn't I be able to grab them?
Noboru Takeshita nodded slightly: "You are right, this is a good solution."
Hearing his father's praise, Takeshita Shin smiled. He had always been the heir to the Takeshita family, and he was also the son that his father had praised since childhood. However, after Kitahara Sosuke appeared, he never heard this kind of thing again. Praise was given.
"Then even you can think of it, why can't he think of it?" Takeshita changed the topic and looked at Takeshita Nobu, who was proud of Masashi, with disappointment on his face, "Do you really think he just wants to disgust us?"
"Otherwise, what other intentions do he have? Even if he uses the TV station to build momentum, he can't do any real harm." Takeshita Nobu frowned.
"That old fox, Chino Ryū, has been running Mitsubishi Heavy Industries all his life, allowing the Chino family to dominate Kyoto. To be honest, his position in the Mitsubishi Consortium can also be ranked among the top three. Such a guy, before he died, was actually willing to use his posthumous name as Kitahara Cang Jie makes the wedding dress."
Noboru Takeshita only learned about this recently.
After the death of Chino Ryū, the Chino family was separated. It seemed that his granddaughter Chino Rin was purifying himself and leaving the house, but in fact, it was to eliminate all the unstable factors in the family. He used his prestige in the family to give Kitahara Aoi The road was paved and some borers were cleared for him in advance.
That's why Kitahara Heavy Industries was able to dominate the heavy industry market so quickly, and the people of the separated Chino family had long been eaten up, and nothing was left.
Outsiders can't see clearly, but an old fox like Noboru Takeshita can naturally see the clues at a glance. This is clearly a trap set up by Chino Ryu for Kitahara Sosuke before his death. People think that he and Kitahara Sosuke will fight to the death. In fact,
How could someone who could be valued by an old man who refused to admit defeat all his life, and finally surrendered before death, do useless work?
"Go and investigate his specific purpose." Noboru Takeshita waved his hand, "I'm a little tired, you can go out."
"Yes, Father." Takeshita Xin disagreed. His father always liked to use the thinking of the older generation to explain the present, which in his opinion was a very outdated thinking.
He didn't bother to pay attention to what Kitahara Sosuke was doing. It was just a desperate struggle anyway. If he had this time, he could go to Hamanaka Taio and continue to think of ways to exchange rubles. This would be more practical. If he exchanged it earlier, he would lose less. A little more profit.
