Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 795, Arrival in Japan

At Mary Hospital, Yang Xiaole is using his "experience" to teach Hua Yourong.

"She's only dilated a few centimeters now; she won't give birth until she's fully dilated!"

"Some people take several days to give birth!"

……

Hua endured the pain as Yang Xiaole comforted her.

I casually asked, "Which child is yours?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaole smiled sheepishly and did not reply.

"hiss!"

Seeing that Huang Qiujing was also in pain, she quickly asked, "What's wrong? Are you about to give birth?"

Huang Qiujing looked at her pants and nodded, "Her water must have broken too."

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole ignored Hua Yourong and helped her to sit down on the side.

I rushed over to check on Huang Qiujing.

"Aunt Kang, go and call the nurse!"

Yang Xiaole called out to the outside.

How could Huang Qiujing not hire a postpartum nanny? She's already waiting for one.

One per person.

Kang Sao was the postpartum nanny that Huang Qiujing had hired.

Upon hearing this, he hurriedly went out.

Soon after, they brought nurses and doctors.

Huang Qiujing was examined.

My water broke, and I'm dilated to two centimeters.

Since there are no problems, we can only wait.

After a while, Su Ling came over with Hua's father.

"Mom and Dad!"

Yang Xiaole greeted the two of them.

Su Ling nodded and looked at Hua Yourong: "How is it?"

Hua Yourong smiled and said, "It's alright! I just don't know when I'll be able to give birth."

Yang Xiaole was chatting with Hua's father.

"Dad! How have you been lately?"

Mr. Hua smiled and nodded, "That's great! The lithium refinery is already under construction and is expected to start production early next year. We're already collaborating with major companies on our lithium batteries."

Yang Xiaole hummed in agreement.

He's not actually very interested in company matters right now.

However, we still chatted for a few minutes out of courtesy.

At this moment, Su Ling was sitting next to two women, sharing her experience.

This was also thanks to the good relationship between Hua Yourong and Huang Qiujing; otherwise, Su Ling would not have said anything.

After all, in the past, this would have belonged to the second and third wives.

There was struggle.

Since they hadn't given birth yet, and there was a postpartum nanny available, Su Ling and her husband eventually left.

In the middle of the night, both of them had an attack.

In the end, it was Huang Qiujing, who was in pain later, who came out of the delivery room first, with a little girl.

Hua Yourong gave birth to a healthy baby boy in the early morning.

At this moment, Yang Xiaole was sitting there watching the two children.

The two pregnant women were provided with meals by their postpartum care nanny.

Western hospitals are different from those in mainland China; here, the rooms have air conditioning.

Of course, air conditioning will also be available in mainland China in later generations.

I called Su Ling to inform her.

In the morning, Su Ling brought over two soup buckets.

"Mom, someone here cooks, so there's no need to go to all that trouble."

Yang Xiaole looked at her carrying so many things and still said something.

Su Ling said nonchalantly, "It's okay, I don't have anything to do at home anyway. I'll come stay at your place tonight and take care of Tian Tian."

Seeing this, Hua Yourong said, "It's alright, with Sister Song taking care of me, it's fine. It's not very convenient for Grandpa to take care of my little brother alone at home."

"It's alright, there are people at home to take care of him!"

Su Ling casually remarked, then added, "Oh, by the way, the old man said he won't be coming over now, but he'll come to visit when they're in their postpartum period."

Yang Xiaole smiled and nodded, "It's nothing!"

In Beijing, visits to pregnant women, except for the mothers themselves, are generally made on the 12th day after the child's birth.

Commonly known as postpartum confinement.

During this period, both the pregnant woman and the baby are relatively stable.

As for the other households, Yang Xiaole had no intention of delivering red eggs; he would just have Su Ling notify them.

"Kiki!"

Yang Xiaole was holding her third daughter and playing with her.

This is the name Huang Qiujing chose: Yang Siqi
That saves him the trouble of choosing a name.

As for the fourth child, it was named by Hua's father: Yang Zimo.

One of them sounds pretty good.

However, it is a name that has been used quite frequently in later generations.

He then pondered there.

It seems like the family is more inclined to have daughters; the eldest child in the family is a daughter, and on this side, daughters were born first as well.

Huang Qiujing is, after all, a native of Hong Kong Island, and has always lived in an era that favored sons over daughters.

She was afraid that if she gave birth to a daughter, Yang Xiaole would not like her.

Seeing Yang Xiaole's condition, I felt relieved.

Holding the baby, Yang Xiaole suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, should you let your brother know when you give birth?"

Huang Qiujing has always had an older brother.

And they don't do anything productive.

Over the years, although Huang Qiujing has money, she hasn't helped him much.

Only once.

Last time, I funded his brother to open a restaurant, and he got married. He seems to have settled down now.

Business is doing fairly well right now.

Apart from that, they haven't paid any attention to it.

Yang Xiaole never bothered with this matter, after all, he was the other party's brother, even though the two had some grudges back then.

Moreover, Huang Qiujing also receives a salary.

To be precise, he did pester her, but Huang Qiujing ignored him.

As long as it's not excessive, it's fine.

When I got married last time, my partner came too, but we didn't say much.

Huang Qiujing thought for a moment and then nodded: "Okay, I'll give him a call later. If he asks you for a favor, don't agree. I'll handle it."

Yang Xiaole thought for a moment, then smiled and nodded: "Okay!"

He remembered that Huang Qiujing bought the shop under her own name.

However, she had signed an agreement with her brother.

The shop will be transferred to his brother's name once the child enters high school.

Otherwise, the store will be taken back and the previous turnover will be recovered.

He's a ruthless person!

As I was lost in thought, the little guy started crying loudly.

They're hungry.

Yang Xiaole handed the child to her, lifted the curtain, and came to Hua Yourong's side.

"Don't you like your son?"

Hua Yourong pouted and asked him a question.

This made Su Ling, who was standing next to him, laugh.

Yang Xiaole protested, "How could that be! I already said I like both boys and girls, and you're still jealous of the child! I'm speechless."

Su Ling couldn't help but laugh as well.

Hua Yourong pouted and snorted.

Just as Yang Xiaole was about to speak, she saw that her fourth son was also crying, so she shouted, "Quickly feed him, don't let my son go hungry."

These words made Hua Yourong roll her eyes.

She took the baby and began breastfeeding.

……

Su Ling stayed in the hospital for several days, staying there every day and only occasionally going back home.

A few days later, the two were discharged from the hospital.

After that, Yang Xiaole naturally lived a peaceful life here. On the 12th day after the child's birth, many relatives and friends began to come over.

The old man also came over with Hua Yourong's younger brother.

Su Ling's aunt and uncle, Teacher Luo, Liu Shengli...

Basically, everyone who was close to Yang Xiaole came over.

Even Cao Lao Er's family came to take a look.

Yang Xiaole was there serving the guests.

It wasn't a full moon celebration today, so after a brief exchange of pleasantries, everyone left the villa.

The old man took the red envelopes and gave each of his two granddaughters a large one, and also gave the two children two gold-inlaid jade locks.

The price wasn't very high, but it was a token of goodwill.

"Grandpa, I don't think you gave me a gift when you took on your apprentice! Why don't you make up for mine?"

Yang Xiaole joked with a smile.

The old man didn't even glance at it.

This made the others there laugh.

Yang Xiaole thought for a moment and asked, "By the way, Grandpa, have you ever thought about going back to the mainland?"

These words stunned everyone.

Su Ling was surprised: "Xiao Le, can we go back now?"

Yang Xiaole nodded: "Yes, the higher-ups have already taken notice of this issue and have begun to clean up the assets of overseas Chinese and address the problem of intercepted remittances. However, progress is not very fast; it should be fully implemented in two or three years."

In fact, the issue of remittances from overseas Chinese was resolved two years ago.

去年侨汇总计3亿5千万美元，而65年的时候只有1亿8千万。

If this issue hadn't been resolved, there wouldn't have been so much foreign exchange flowing into the mainland.

Especially after relations with the mainland and the Japanese eased last year, people in the mainland have begun to openly receive remittances from overseas Chinese.

However, he was still looked down upon and gossiped about behind his back.

Despite their grumbling, it couldn't change the fact that these people's living conditions were beginning to improve.

As for the housing issue, the cleanup began two years ago.

However, progress has not been very fast.

The real complete cleanup took place in 81. There were still a few years left, but even with the complete cleanup, there were still many historical issues that were overlooked.

Upon hearing this, the old man thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, I'm used to staying here. The children are all here. I'll go back and visit when I have the chance. When I pass away, just transport me to the mainland for burial."

Yang Xiaole rolled her eyes.

All they think about is dying, they're tired of living!
However, I can understand the old man's thoughts.

The children are all on Hong Kong Island now, and have lived here for so many years, they've gotten used to it.

If all these people return to the mainland to develop their careers in the future, the old man will definitely go back.

The group chatted there.

……

Leisurely days pass by quickly.

It has been twenty days since he arrived in Hong Kong Island, and Hua Yourong and Huang Qiujing have almost fully recovered.

That morning, Yang Xiaole said goodbye to Hua Yourong and the others.

I boarded a plane bound for Japan.

After dealing with things here, he will need to go back to the mainland and from there return to Japan.

In the afternoon, Yang Xiaole went straight to Xu Jinbu's place after getting off the plane.

Xu Jinbu was inspecting the breeding pond at this moment.

"Kato-kun!"

"Kitagawa-kun?"

Upon seeing him, Xu Jinbu was surprised and then dismissed his assistant.

He then asked, "When did you get back?"

Yang Xiaole handed him a cigarette and said with a smile, "Just arrived today, how have you been lately?"

"Well, not bad!"

Xu Jinbu took the cigarette and said with a smile, "By the way, the money you asked me to borrow last time was used to buy US dollars and made a fortune!"

Yang Xiaole smiled upon hearing this.

The yen used to have a fixed exchange rate, but now it uses a floating exchange rate, and he definitely needs to tell his people about this.

The mainland knows about it, but it doesn't know if they've taken any action.

In any case, Huang Qiujing made quite a bit of money this time through capital operations.

In just a few months, it reached 33%.

This rate of return is considered top-notch in the investment world, except for venture capital firms that frequently produce dark horses.

Of course, Huang Qiujing also mentioned that people on Wall Street should have received the news and have now entered the Japanese foreign exchange market.

We were just a little bit later than them.

Yang Xiaole was not surprised at all by this.

The Japanese wouldn't dare appreciate the yen without his father's approval.

This time it should be said that it was his father's request.

The need for a depreciation of the dollar was to offset the impact of the collapse of the Bretton Woods system.

He then smiled and nodded, "I'll exchange the money back when the contract expires."

It will continue to decline over the next few years, and when it is converted back to US dollars, it will cost less money.

Xu Jinbu hummed in agreement: "It's already been handled by someone in the company. I don't know anything about this either."

Yang Xiaole nodded.

Then I asked about some things here.

Then he said, "Your relationship is no longer with your previous employer. Now you're under my direct contact. Unless there are special assignments, you can just earn money here and send me the foreign exchange regularly."

Xu Jinbu sighed upon hearing this.

"When can we go back? My family has been unable to contact me for so long, they must be worried."

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole said, "Don't worry, I'll take you back in a while, but things need to settle down here first. I've already sent a telegram back to my hometown to let them know I'm safe, but that you're currently on a special mission."

Xu Jinbu nodded in agreement, "That's good!"

Yang Xiaole chatted with the other party for a while, then checked the time and said, "Alright, I'm not talking to you anymore. Just continue developing along the current trend. There will be places where you will be needed in the future."

"okay, I get it."

Once the matter was settled, Yang Xiaole left.

They arrived at Zhang Xuesong's side again.

There haven't been any major changes on Zhang Xuesong's side.

After the merger, he gradually became involved in the management of the Yamaguchi-gumi.

It's not like before when we were in a dangerous situation.

The main reason is that there's Kazuo Taoka above him keeping things under control. As long as the other party is alright, Zhang Xuesong won't be in any danger.

After confirming that there were no problems here, he took another flight to Guangzhou.

I flew back to Japan.

The reason for doing this is, of course, to keep a record of passing the test.

Yu Yongsheng and his group wouldn't arrive for a few more days, so they took another flight to Myanmar.

The development here is going well; the factory is already under construction.

For this purpose, a special application was made to build a large deep-water wharf.

After briefly checking the situation and confirming that there were no problems, they gave me some things and then left.

……

Yang Xiaole returned to Tokyo and waited for several people outside the Tokyo airport.

"Director Gao, Director Yu!"

Yang Xiaole greeted the group as they arrived, looking travel-worn.

The group was still looking around.

Hearing this, I was overjoyed.

Director Gao said with a smile, "I heard you were seconded out, and I thought you wouldn't be able to come this time!"

Yang Xiaole smiled and said, "The delegation is also in Japan. They went back yesterday. I'll wait for you here."

Hearing this, Director Gao smiled and said, "That's good. Since you've been here before, we'll go to the hotel later."

"Okay, let's take a taxi to the hotel first, but I don't recommend staying in a bad hotel this time."

Yang Xiaole said something, then explained, "We're here to discuss several hundred million dollars. If we stay in shabby accommodations, it won't look good. Besides, there's a banquet hall over there where we can hold our bidding meeting!"

As for the bidding process, it was naturally his idea.

It was also approved by the higher authorities.

He knew that these people going abroad would stay in very ordinary hotels in order to save foreign exchange for the mainland.

Then visit in person.

This time he wants to make a change.

Director Gao smiled and nodded, "Okay, then we'll head over there. You can make the arrangements!"

Yang Xiaole agreed: "Okay!"

After agreeing on the terms, the group went to find a taxi.
