Fairy, please step aside, I've taken a liking to your man.

"The royal family has approached us, wanting to acquire a portion of the shares."

Mrs. Mikami said with some distress, "Although with our strength, we don't need to care about the royal family of Dongdao Island, all sorts of troubles will always come knocking on our door."

"Then give them some shares."

A strange light flashed in Shen Bai's eyes: "Does the Eastern Island Imperial Family have female members who are as passionate about their careers and development as Mrs. Mikami?"

I feel that Mrs. Mikami could get to know them better, and next time I come, I could organize a get-together.

Mrs. Mikami, understanding the implied meaning, said, "Don't worry, Mr. Kato, Mikami Stockings Company will always be your strongest support."

The two were strolling around when Mrs. Watanabe suddenly came looking for them.

"Kato-kun, Mikami-mrs. The Imperial Family has sent a summons."

"A conscription order?"

Shen Bai looked at Mrs. Mikami with a puzzled expression. Mrs. Mikami explained, "These are some of the royal family's little tricks. Because they can't compete with conglomerates and families head-on, they use this method to embarrass us."

The advance force from Dongdao to Qiyuan Star suffered heavy losses. Although they discovered a medicinal mountain, they urgently needed Golden Core cultivators to rush to the battlefield. Therefore, the royal family frequently issued conscription orders, demanding that we Golden Core cultivators go to Qiyuan Star.

"Then what should we do?"

Shen Bai was unaware of the situation here, but he also sensed that it was somewhat troublesome.

"Ignore it!"

Mrs. Mikami's reply carried an air of domineering arrogance she had never shown in front of Shen Bai. She said disdainfully, "In Dongdao, conglomerates are everything."

Shen Bai was taken aback.

Although he had heard this saying before, he still felt it was quite impactful when he actually faced it.

Moreover, the domineering aura that Mrs. Mikami displayed, unlike anything he had seen before, made him realize that she was not a tool to be manipulated, but a powerful person with her own thoughts and understanding.

That makes sense when you think about it. Without some skill, how could Mrs. Mikami and her group of wives have successfully inherited the estate and established the Mikami Stocking Company in such a short time?

The strategies, struggles, and tactics involved are not as simple as they appear.

Previously, Shen Bai viewed the wives as a backup plan, but now it seems he needs to take them seriously.

"Mrs. Mikami, I spent some time honing my culinary skills recently, and tonight I'd like to cook a special meal just for you to thank you for all your hard work during this time."

Shen Bai originally planned to return to the capital immediately after visiting the Mikami Stockings Company, but now he's in no hurry to leave.

A dazzling light suddenly flashed in Mrs. Mikami's eyes: "Then I will certainly prepare a warm welcome and make you feel right at home."

Mrs. Watanabe, standing to the side, had a look of envy in her eyes. Even though she was the first to come into contact with Shen Bai, she knew that she had no right to compete for favor with Mrs. Mikami.

……

After visiting the Mikami Stocking Company, Mrs. Mikami invited Shen Bai to the cleaned meeting room and presented him with the company's recent accounts.

"You don't need to show me these, do you? I trust Mrs. Mikami completely."

Shen Bai didn't rush to look, but instead stared at Mrs. Mikami's beautiful eyes.

Mrs. Mikami looked at him respectfully: "Everything this company has today is thanks to you, Mr. Kato. I am merely your agent."

Seeing the other party's respectful attitude, Shen Bai did not refuse again. Instead, he lowered his head to look at the financial report seriously. After just one glance, he almost jumped up.

This small hosiery company has already made several times more profit in the past six months than the combined profits of its two subsidiaries.

Are women really that crazy about a little pair of stockings?

Or is Mrs. Mikami truly a business genius?

"That's great, but I would like to improve the security for you and the key members."

Money is a powerful motivator. With Mrs. Mikami's current drive to make money, she will probably soon become a well-known conglomerate in the East Island. At that time, other conglomerates will likely target them.

"Please rest assured, Kato-kun, we have the support of our family."

Mrs. Mikami's eyes softened; she could sense that Shen Bai's concern for her was genuine.

This proves that her hard work over this period of time has been fully recognized by this man.

So, tonight, can I make some more excessive demands?

"Over there on Qiyuan Star, I think the Xuanyuan Empire has basically established a foothold, so I suggest that the company set up a branch in Qiyuan City in order to open up the market there. After all, the total population there has exceeded one million, which is no less than that of a city."

Moreover, I predict that the total population will soon exceed ten million; such a market cannot be abandoned.

Shen Bai considered the company's development direction for a moment, and then offered his suggestion: "I feel that we can increase investment in the area of ​​personal care products and magical artifacts."

The needs of people at the bottom of society are enormous. You can have Watanabe and her team open a forum on the Spirit Network, and vigorously promote the use of our new type of intimate care products on the forum. Find some models to record videos of them trying out the products for promotion.

Mrs. Mikami listened attentively to Shen Bai's opinion and nodded repeatedly, saying, "I will carry it out diligently."

Shen Bai looked at her and suddenly remembered the method he used to take down the altar. He couldn't help but laugh and said, "Besides that, you can also start a new business and create a video company that specializes in filming male and female cultivators using our products for dual cultivation. Record the videos with a recording stone and pay to watch or buy them to create a new profit point."

Mrs. Mikami's eyes lit up immediately.

This way of making a profit is quite novel, to say the least.

"I'll find some strong men and beautiful women to try it out."

Shen Bai's eyes gleamed with a strange light: "You can divide them into different types: ordinary people with ordinary people, acquired martial artists with acquired martial artists, innate martial artists with innate martial artists, cultivators with cultivators, and true masters with true masters..."

One-on-one, one-to-many, or even a real person versus an ordinary person, across cultivation levels, across different levels...

For example, you could film a story about a Golden Core cultivator going mad and an ordinary person risking their life to save them…

As Shen Bai tempted her like a devil, Mrs. Mikami felt a seed suddenly sprout in her heart.

Who knew there could be so many interesting things between men and women?

Kato-kun truly is the future light of Higashijima!

Her gaze toward Shen Bai was filled with fervor.

She was getting more and more excited about her date that evening.

……

As evening fell, Shen Bai, dressed in traditional Dongdao attire and carrying a bottle of Xuan Yuan Empire's national liquor, knocked on the door of Madam San Shang's cave.

"Welcome, Mr. Kato. Please excuse our humble abode."

Mrs. Mikami knelt at the entrance, respectfully welcoming Shen Bai's arrival.

She wore her hair in a high bun and was dressed in traditional Dongdao clothing. Beautiful white lotus flowers bloomed on her off-white dress, which added a touch of innocence to her alluring appearance.

Her fair skin and gentle eyes made her resemble a beautiful flower illuminated by the moonlight. Her sweet and alluring smile made people feel warm and comfortable.

Mrs. Mikami knelt respectfully, just like the most traditional East Island woman, welcoming her husband home from get off work. People unconsciously found a sense of home by her side, which warmed their hearts.

"Mrs. Mikami, you're too kind. I hope you won't mind my abrupt visit."

Shen Bai spoke the most polite words, but reached out to wait for Mrs. Mikami to come forward, take the wine from his hand, and help him take off his coat and change his shoes.

A glint of happiness flashed in Mrs. Mikami's eyes; it had been a long time since she had welcomed her man home like this.

"I'll cook tonight. What would Mrs. Mikami like to eat?"

Shen Bai went straight to the kitchen. For a Golden Core cultivator, the kitchen was basically unused. Only when guests came would they prepare spiritual tea, spiritual wine, snacks and the like. They rarely cooked on ordinary days.

"I love anything Kato-kun makes!"

Mrs. Mikami stood at the kitchen entrance with a smile on her face, watching Shen Bai busy himself there.

"Mrs. Mikami, the video shooting we mentioned this morning actually included a lot of kitchen scenes. Come in, and I'll explain it to you in detail."

Shen Bai was busy with his hands, but he didn't forget to give Mrs. Mikami some pointers on how to influence the company.

Mrs. Mikami spent the entire afternoon pondering what amazing plot twists might occur. Now, upon hearing that Shen Bai was going to personally teach her, she immediately and excitedly went to his side.

"What should I do?"

……

It took a full hour to prepare the meal.

Mrs. Mikami was greatly impressed.

She felt full even though she hadn't eaten yet.

When the two sat down at the dining table to eat face to face, her eyes were filled with tenderness as she looked at Shen Bai.

"I spend most of my time abroad and can't visit you often. I hope you don't mind."

Shen Bai raised his wine glass and solemnly apologized to Mrs. Mikami.

"A man should prioritize his career. As long as Kato-kun remembers me, I am already satisfied."

Moreover, Kato-kun has been sending gifts to me and my sisters during this time, and I'm already very happy to know that he's alright.

Mrs. Mikami, who had displayed the same domineering presence as she did that morning when faced with the royal family's unreasonable demands, transformed into a delicate little white cat, uttering soft, weak cries.

Shen Bai had always felt somewhat guilty.

Generally speaking, he would only use this skill to its fullest extent when facing a mortal enemy. He would not use it lightly under normal circumstances, nor would he use such methods to seduce women.

In order to complete the mission quickly, he had to use his Soul-Stealing Technique to its fullest extent, and none of the wives of the group escaped its grasp.

The power of seduction can subtly change how others perceive you, let alone when it's fully unleashed.

The wives of Mikami, Watanabe, Kobayashi, and other members of the wives' group have already left their mark on their souls.

But they are ultimately living, breathing individuals with their own joys and sorrows, their own lives, and their own judgments about things.

That's why Shen Bai decided to stay today to properly comfort the other party.

"If you miss me, you can visit Qiyuan Star when you have some free time. I'm developing my career there right now."

Shen Bai revealed a little bit about his whereabouts.
