Chapter 174 The People of the Yakumoto Family
After shaking hands with Eri Kisaki and finalizing the cooperation, Lin Shen felt much more relaxed.
He leaned back in his chair and let out a long sigh of relief.
These billions of yen were practically getting moldy in the basement. He didn't dare deposit them in the bank or spend them in large sums, fearing he'd attract the attention of the tax authorities or the police.
Now things are much better. A truly knowledgeable lawyer is here to help with the process, and this money can finally be made public.
Eri Kisaki's style of doing things is very direct, without a single wasted word.
She placed her handbag on her lap, took out a notebook, opened it, looked up at Lin Shen, and asked crisply, "President Lin, approximately how many assets do you need to dispose of?"
Lin Shen scratched his head; he couldn't remember how much money he had.
After all, once you've robbed too much money, you become numb to it.
All he remembered was that the entire underground warehouse was piled high with money.
He turned to look at Akemi standing next to the bar: "You'll have to ask her about that. I don't usually concern myself with the specific amounts."
Akemi put down the cup she was wiping, wiped her hands, and came over to give a number:
"Currently, we have approximately several tens of billions of yen in cash, as well as some gold reserves."
After the number was announced, Eri Kisaki's expression did not change significantly.
Her pen paused briefly on the notebook, then continued writing smoothly.
After all, she's been in high society for so many years. Several hundred billion yen sounds like a scary number, but when converted to US dollars, it's just a few hundred million.
It certainly looks conspicuous when placed under an ordinary individual's name, but if it is spread across several offshore companies and trust funds, it becomes inconspicuous.
Moreover, if placed within the cash flow of a multinational corporation, it's like a drop of water falling into the ocean—it can't even create a ripple.
Eri Kisaki didn't ask any further questions about whose money it was or how it came about.
Having been a lawyer for so many years, her most basic professional quality is that she should never ask questions she shouldn't ask.
She closed the notebook, put it back in her handbag, and said calmly, "Several hundred billion yen? I understand."
"I will come up with a feasible plan as soon as I get back, and then I will send it to you for review."
Lin Shen nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, Attorney Fei."
"You're welcome. We're just getting what we need." Eri Kisaki remained quite rational.
Lin Shen smiled and naturally picked up where he left off: "By the way, I've already found out about those three people who were causing you trouble earlier."
"They said it was the Hatamoto family who instigated it."
Upon hearing the words "Hatagon family," Eri Kisaki immediately frowned.
She paused mid-air, her coffee cup hovering in mid-air, her tone clearly displeased: "It's the Hatamoto family again... Why are they still bothering us?"
Lin Shen knew from her reaction that this wasn't the first time.
He leaned back in his chair and pressed on, "Did the Hatamoto family come looking for you before?"
Eri Kisaki hummed in agreement, put down her coffee cup, and nodded. "Yes."
"Some time ago, two people from the Hatamoto family came to see me. One was named Hatamoto Akie, and the other was her husband, Hatamoto Tatsuo."
She paused for a moment, her expression becoming somewhat subtle, as if recalling something that was both speechless and amusing.
She was silent for a moment, then spoke, her tone carrying the helplessness and absurdity that only a lawyer who has seen countless bizarre cases could feel:
Do you know how outrageous these two people are?
"They came right up to me and said they wanted to inherit the Hatamoto Group."
"But because their grandfather... who is also the head of the Yabumoto Group, Yabumoto Gozo, favors his younger sister, Hatamoto Natsue, it is estimated that he will leave most of the group's inheritance rights to Natsue."
"So they want to know if there's any way to wrest the inheritance rights from her sister!"
As Eri Kisaki finished speaking, she couldn't help but laugh, a laugh tinged with a sense of absurdity and absurdity.
"I know some people are ignorant of the law, but I never imagined someone could be this ignorant."
"You actually dare to think about something like that..."
"I flatly refused them and told them that I couldn't do it and that they should find someone else."
She picked up her coffee cup, took a sip, and spoke with a hint of lingering anger and helplessness:
"But instead of hiring someone more capable, they sent someone to cause me trouble."
Lin Shen and Mingmei couldn't help but laugh after hearing these words.
Lin Shen laughed out loud, shaking his head and saying, "There really are all kinds of people in this world."
Akemi laughed and chimed in, "It really is quite bizarre."
After Lin Shen finished laughing, his expression calmed down a bit, and he said in a reassuring tone, "Alright, I'll help you solve this."
Eri glanced at him, did not refuse, but still gave him a final reminder: "Just give him a warning. Don't escalate things too much."
Lin Shen nodded and readily agreed: "Okay, no problem, I know what I'm doing."
Eri left a business card and wrote her personal mobile phone number on the back. Then she stood up, straightened the hem of her suit, nodded slightly to Lin Shen and Mingmei, and turned to walk out the door.
Mingmei naturally followed her, opened the glass door for her, and escorted her to the door. She watched the car drive away before turning back into the store.
As soon as Akemi returned to the bar, she couldn't hide her smile.
Her eyes shone with barely concealed excitement, and her tone was noticeably lighter than usual.
"Great! With Attorney Fei's help, we can finally bring that large sum of money into the open!"
Shen picked up the cup of coffee in front of him, which had long since gone cold, and without a second thought, downed it in one gulp. Then, he smiled and said:
"Yes, from now on, when I spend money, I won't have to worry about being targeted by anyone."
Mingmei exclaimed excitedly at the thought of having so much money to use openly and legitimately in the future, "With this money, we can do so many things!"
"For example, making movies! I talked to Yoko about ideas and concepts for making movies before, but unfortunately, we haven't been able to get things done yet because of the lack of money."
"Once we have the money, we can start filming immediately! I can even have a cameo role in it!"
"After that, I want to open my own independent brand store! Specializing in all kinds of luxury goods!!"
"..."
Mingmei talked a lot with great interest.
Upon hearing that these projects would facilitate money laundering, Lin Shen readily agreed.
Mingmei, however, asked curiously, "And Mr. Lin? What do you plan to do now that you have money?"
Lin Shen thought for a moment, then made no attempt to hide his thoughts: "Like most men, once I have money, I'll enjoy myself to the fullest!"
"Especially a few celebrities I used to follow, I invited them over for a meal or something."
Upon hearing this, Akemi chuckled, "That idea... is really simplistic."
