Tokyo: Starting with taking on his wife's debts

At best, they would ban entry into the financial market. With such an intelligence system, the financial market would become utterly unchallenging, while the real economy would be far more fulfilling.

Although the 1.5 million yen reserved in the account didn't offer much protection against risk, Ayako's mansion and Ezaki's swift approval process gave him enough confidence that he could use tens of millions more yen to set up the game development company.

Ask Ezaki for a cheap office space to use as the company's office.

One of the key businesses in her transformation was acquiring bankrupt office buildings at low prices and then sending her underlings to work as property management company employees.

Kitaro is carrying out her business.

Xiuming cooked a bowl of buckwheat noodles in the kitchen, sat down on the single sofa in the living room on the first floor with the bowl in his hand, and then picked up the white phone on the table to dial the supermarket's landline.

Chieko answered the phone again, letting out a soft voice: "Yama...Yamano-sensei, is there anything I can do for you...?"

That shy, coy air sent shivers down my spine.

"Were you running? You're so out of breath!" Hideaki said irritably. "Is Ezaki in the shop?"

"Ah, she's here! Should I call her over?"

"Nonsense, hurry up."

Okay, okay~

Chieko blushed and covered the microphone in her hand. She looked up and said, "Eri-chan, I can't leave. Could you please call Ms. Ezaki for me? Mr. Yamanaka is looking for her."

Across from the cashier, Eri was sitting on a high chair, biting on the green straw of a milk tea cup, staring straight at her.

In this small supermarket, besides the customers, there are now eight ladies:

Inside the massage room were Ayako, Riko, and Ezaki, who were having a three-way meeting.

Chieko was at the cashier, Eri was sitting at the door drinking milk tea, and then there were Ayako's three female embroiderers, two of whom were responsible for stocking goods and guiding customers, and one of whom was selling bento boxes at the door.

"Is that the door I should go through?" Eri walked to the cashier with her milk tea. "You go ahead, I'll help you with the payment."

Chieko pursed her lips, gently put down the phone, and turned to walk towards the massage room.

Eri didn't want to talk to Ezaki.

For some reason, male-oriented hentai anime has only female fans.

The editors are all asking if we should hold a fan meeting.

How could I dare to do something so shameful? I'm a cute and innocent young girl!

If Ezaki finds out, I'll be beaten to death...

As for Hideaki, he has already given permission. Even if he's angry, he can ask Riko for help. She's the easiest to talk to, hehe.

"Hey, Ezaki just spanked Ayako!" Eri picked up the phone receiver, glanced at the massage room, and whispered, "Is this arrogant woman because you spoil her too much? Riko is too scared to speak!"

Ezaki put too much pressure on me. He just asked her to pay back the debt and even asked if I wanted to work part-time as a bubble bath girl at her shop to pay it off. What a humiliation!

"What's it to you? Let Ezaki answer the phone, it's important."

"Okay, okay, okay, you're amazing," Erimi said, realizing that her attempts to provoke her had failed. If she said anything more, she would be labeled as a gossip and a troublemaker, so she quickly changed the subject. "Could you lend me 15 yen? I'll pay you back next month when I get my royalties."

The hourly wage of 700 yen is barely enough to buy art supplies; it's all gone after a few snacks.

While I'm no longer in a hurry to pay the 60 yen I owe Ezaki, I can't afford to be in a hurry about my credit card.

"Riko feeds you, provides you with lodging, pays you a daily wage, and tolerates your slacking off at the shop. How dare you borrow money?" Hideaki said irritably. "Do you want to use the money to go to a host club for inspiration? Can't I provide you with creative ideas?"

Hideaki knew about Eri eavesdropping at the door last night, and when he went to the living room to pour water for Riko, Riko's mouth was agape and her eyes were wide open like saucers.

It's already confirmed that she draws hentai, so what? It's not highbrow at all. Her sleazy, gloomy otaku image makes me not even interested in watching her work.

"Who goes to a place like that! You, you're not going to smear my reputation... I just have eight credit cards that are due and I haven't paid them off yet..."

Eight credit cards? What kind of conditions would you have to dare use eight?!

"I have no money, what can I do?"

Xiu Ming almost laughed.

This is the tragedy of a generation that grew up in a bubble: overspending.

Credit cards are one of the most successful, greatest, and most insidious inventions in the capital operation market, and subsequent consumer loans are merely imitations.

The seemingly carefree hedonistic view has become prevalent, leading to the brainwashing of the masses and subsequently distorting their consumption habits.

Overspending not only wastes future money, but also deprives you of future time.

Time is a mysterious and unpredictable force; don't give it away lightly.

The phenomenon of "living paycheck to paycheck" extends beyond just low-income groups.

A consumerist mentality of living for the moment and enjoying life one day at a time will never lead to savings; it will only make life more and more miserable.

For ordinary people, the most effective way to save money is to stop all overdraft spending, including credit cards, various credit cards, and consumer loans.

From now on, spend whatever salary you receive and whatever money you have on hand; that's what it means to be a "moonlight clan" (living paycheck to paycheck).

Those who rush to pay off various debts as soon as they receive their salary are "debtors".

"I don't have any money either. You'll have to figure it out yourself. Work hard and you'll get rich. I believe you'll get through this."

If she can't change her spending habits, lending her any amount of money won't help.

This isn't something that can be changed overnight. Only after experiencing the pain of being broke do you realize how hard it is to earn money.

"Fine, don't lend it! Why waste my time telling me all that?" Eri grumbled, glancing at the massage room with a sly grin. "Just you wait! I won't let you know when your wife gets beaten up! Right now, your wife's almost crying from Ezaki's fear~"

After entering the room, Chieko looked for an opportunity to speak.

As a mature, lonely divorced woman with elderly parents and young children to care for, she has a clear understanding of the personalities of the three women in the room.

The situation at this moment is not the gossip about Eri lying about information; Ezaki is being very friendly to Riko.

But perhaps it's because Eri told me that Ezaki is the queen of the underworld!

Ezaki has a strong presence.

Riko was always so cautious and easy to bully that even Chieko wanted to hit her to see if she would cry.

Ezaki couldn't help himself and hit the smiling Ayako.

Then Riko got scared and became even easier to bully.

For some reason, her pitiful appearance, as if she was about to cry at any moment, was very pleasing to the eye.

Chieko couldn't help but sigh inwardly: I can't learn that...

But she knew how good Hideaki was to Riko, and she also knew that Hideaki wanted to find Ezaki, not Riko.

If I were to say it so bluntly, wouldn't it make Riko burst into tears immediately? After all, she must be missing Mr. Hideaki terribly right now!

Does that mean I made Riko-chan cry? Will I still have a good impression of Mr. Hideaki?

I'm so conflicted, I don't dare to say anything...

While Chieko hesitated and looked around, Ezaki also fell into a dilemma.

She wanted to find out about Hideaki's background through Riko, but because Ayako, who was like a persistent pest, was nearby, she couldn't bring herself to speak.

All I could do was discuss the project of developing a chain of supermarkets with Riko.

But Riko's message remained consistent: "Talk to my husband." "Does my husband know?" "If my husband agrees, I agree." "My husband said I don't need to think..."

Jiang Qi was furious. Every sentence she uttered mentioned "her husband." She wanted to hit her, but as the female president of a yakuza gang, how could she bully the weak?

Ezaki gave up on discussing any business projects with her, but he was still feeling frustrated. So, without saying a word, he gave her the four papayas he had bought at the fruit shop.

"Hideaki asked me to bring this to you, saying it's for you to replenish your energy."

She must be upset because Xiuming thinks she has small breasts!

"Ah, thank you so much, I'm sorry to have troubled you..."

Riko's eyes lit up with surprise, and her pursed lips couldn't hide her smile. She blushed and then put all four papayas away.

How can there be such a submissive and obedient woman? All she does is fawn over others! Can't she even offer a single complaint?

Then Aya burst out laughing and puffed out her chest.

Ezaki grabbed her and started hitting her...

Riko hadn't even recovered from the surprise of receiving her first gift from Hideaki when she heard the sound of a slap and saw Ayako's bottom...

She's really amazing, I'm so envious that she dared to spank Ayako.

Because of Ayako's gossip, she also learned about Ezaki's relationship with Hideaki.

But what can be done?

After all, "every man makes the same mistake," and there will be a third, a fourth, a fifth...

Although I was a little sad, it wasn't that sad.

Last night at eight o'clock, I was so embarrassed in this bright, glass-walled room.

But my husband insists on having it, and I can't bear to refuse... I haven't recovered yet, and my husband says he climbs into bed with me every night... I'm so scared... When he called last night, I didn't dare to answer.

Forget it! It turns out my husband was doing it for my own good...

"Hey! President Ezaki, Mr. Yamanaka misses you! He wants to call you!" Eri's shout came from outside the door.

"Oh?" Ezaki, who was hitting Ayako, paused and subconsciously glanced at Riko.

Riko lowered her head and looked obedient, still appearing well-behaved.

Ezaki's heart sank: It's over, I can never replace her.

What kind of bewitching potion did that bastard Xiuming give her?

Can't she resist or be jealous?

How could there possibly be such a woman in the world?

A fool like Ayako is the normal reaction!

I don't believe it. I have plenty of time to train her, to teach her to be jealous, to learn to resist, to not wrong herself, and then to ask Xiuming for a divorce... I have a strong ability to endure, a little grievance is nothing to me.

Chapter 103 Earning 2 Million Yen

When Ezaki walked to the cashier, Eri had already crawled out from behind the counter and sat on the high stool opposite it, biting the green straw of her milk tea cup and glancing at Ezaki.
