After 30 minutes of fighting, Busujima Saeko also came out of her initial displeasure. In fact, because Ryuhiko did not continue to use sword skills, but instead used his own swordsmanship to fight her, she had more time to think about why Ryuhiko fought so hard.

Looking at Long Yan, who was lying on the ground gasping for breath but with the fighting spirit in his eyes not diminished at all, Busujima Saeko suddenly smiled for some reason.

"Although I don't know what reason you have for attacking me again and again, I seem to understand the determination in your heart.

Remember to do the basic exercises when you get home. If you want to do actual combat training, you are welcome to challenge me."

The wind blew gently in from the vents of the venue, lifting the ends of Busujima Saeko's hair that were stuck to her face by sweat. The sunlight poured in through the windows of the venue, illuminating Busujima Saeko, who was like a blooming purple mandala.

Listening to the gentle words coming to his ears, for some reason, for a moment, Long Yan was actually a little dazed.

Chapter 27 Kowloon Village Association

“Hiss…it hurts, it hurts!”

"Although I was the one who proposed the challenge, and I was willing to let others go all out, but Busujima-senpai's move was a bit too harsh..."

Inside his own shop, Long Yan rubbed the slightly bruised face with a boiled egg while complaining to himself a few times, twisting his body while speaking.

It's because it hurts. If he takes off his clothes now, the dense bruises on his body would be scary enough.

However, although he complained a little, he was very happy in his heart.

This is not to say that Long Yan has any special hobbies, but through actual combat with Busujima Saeko, he found that although his martial arts level did not improve, he became more and more adept at it.

If his system had a status bar like an experience bar, both the Kamiya Katsuhin-ryu and my style would have gained a lot of experience. This also strengthened his determination to find Busujima Saeko for practical training every day.

Seeing this, Saito Takuma, who was standing by, couldn't help but show a look of both distress and relief on his face.

At first, when he saw Long Yan coming back with bruises on his face, he thought that Long Yan had fought with someone outside again. Besides being disappointed, he couldn't help but feel confused about the future of his young master.

However, when he learned the real reason why Long Yan was covered with bruises, he didn't believe it at first. But when he met Long Yan's eyes that were so clear that they didn't seem fake, he understood that his young master was really different.

His young master is no longer the decadent boy who only knows how to idle around and love playing pachinko.

He didn't say anything to comfort Long Yan, but just stood aside and reported in a deep and serious voice.

"Young Master, I have already started to process the formalities for the milk tea shop. Although we cannot borrow much money, the Uesugi family still has some connections in the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare. The formalities are not too complicated and can be completed in about a week.

At the same time, I have discussed the resale of the equipment with Mr. Osawa. He said that as long as we agree to end the lease early, he can transfer the equipment and facilities in the store to us at a price slightly lower than the second-hand market price.

In addition, we have found a fairly reliable advertising company to produce billboards, signboards, and menus, so we can officially open the store in as little as a week.”

Listening to Saito Takuma's report, Long Yan looked up at the serious man in front of him with some surprise.

He didn't expect that Saito Takuma's business ability was so strong. He just briefly explained his needs to him, and there was such rapid progress in just one day. This really refreshed his understanding of him.

After all, all his knowledge of Saito Takuma came from the original owner's memory, but now it seems that the original owner does not seem to have a deep understanding of this man who is like a brother and a father to him.

However, before Long Yan could say anything, a somewhat discordant voice, accompanied by the sound of wind chimes on the shop door, reached Long Yan's ears.

"Hey, I heard that you're planning to open a shop called Milk Tea. Are you planning to use this legitimate business to pay back that Shanxin guy?

My little nephew Long Yan!"

A low, slightly teasing voice rang out in this small shop. When Long Yan heard the voice and looked in the direction, his slender yet handsome eyes couldn't help but shrink slightly.

Three people pushed the door open and walked in, all wearing decent and expensive suits. Among them, the three were led by a middle-aged man in the middle who had a thin face and a gloomy look, and the person who spoke was also this man.

Iemura Ryumi!

He is the chairman of the Kowloon Family Village Association, one of the nine core organizations of the Kowloon Group. The Family Village Association under his name is a huge organization that controls the entire Bay Area and its surrounding areas.

There is no doubt that this is a well-deserved gangster.

Looking at the smiling Iemura Ryumi, no matter whether it was Ryu Yan's previous life or the original owner, he had no good feelings towards this sinister guy like a jackal. He just responded softly with a forced smile.

"You don't need to worry about that, Iemura Ryumi."

However, as soon as Longyan finished speaking, Wakato Ishii, who was standing next to Iemura Ryumi, immediately started shouting in anger.

"Kisama! You are not a kid like you who can call the president by his name..."

However, in the face of Ishii's scolding, Long Yan seemed unmoved, and his eyes remained only on Iemura Ryumi from beginning to end.

The gazes of the two people collided in the air as if they were real. What surprised Jiacun Longmei was that the young man who would subconsciously avoid the gazes of the presidents in the past seemed to be particularly bold today.

Or should I say, exceptionally calm?

However, no matter what kind of changes have taken place in Long Yan, the meaning revealed in his eyes is already obvious.

If you want to talk to me, tell your men to shut up!

As if to demonstrate her sincerity in coming here, Iemura Ryumi did not allow her young master to continue scolding her, but instead stretched out her hand to stop him from saying anything else.

After receiving the instructions from Ryumi Iemura, Ishii seemed to have pressed the pause button in an instant. The scolding that was on the tip of his tongue was swallowed back. Then he nodded slightly to Ryumi Iemura and retreated behind him again.

"Although 2500 million yen is not much, it's not something a small shop like this can earn. On average, it's million yen in net profit a month. Tsk, tsk, even if this shop is your own, I don't think you can do it in just one year, right? I'm here specifically to give you advice, aren't you going to buy me a drink?"

After Ishii returned, Jiacun Longmei first looked around the small shop, and then continued to speak to Longyan.

However, Long Yan was not impressed by his words. He did not think that Jiacun Longmei came to see him for any good reason. Sitting at the bar, he casually crossed his legs, changed into a comfortable posture and responded casually: "Sorry, you can see what I have here, but I don't have anything to treat you. If you have anything to say, just say it directly. There is no need to be hypocritical and beat around the bush. We are not that familiar, right?"

Long Yan's disrespectful words obviously angered Wakato and Shedito who were standing behind Iemura Ryumi again. However, due to Iemura Ryumi's instructions, they did not shout at him this time. Instead, they frowned and stared at Long Yan as if they wanted to eat him alive.

However, compared with his younger brother, the president, Ryumi Iemura, was obviously much calmer. He just looked at Long Yan deeply, and then spoke in a deep voice as if he didn't care about Long Yan's rude tone at all.

"Then I'll get straight to the point. As you know, in order to protect you, the Ninth President exchanged a lot of benefits for that fellow Shanxin. But for the sake of that woman, oh, that is, your mother, he simply mortgaged your Uesugi family's dojo in the SWORD area to the bank under Ueno Ryuhei, and did not do anything with its property rights.

The ownership of the dojo is still in your hands, right?

Selling it to me may not allow you to pay off the 300 million yen debt in one go, but at least your stress will be reduced a lot, right?

Of course, if you really can't pay off your debts, my village will also provide you with shelter. At least with me here, even that fellow Shanxin will give me some face."

PS. My wife was sick today, and I started writing this chapter after I took care of her until she fell asleep, so I’m sorry it’s a little late.

Chapter 28 SWORD

Hearing this, Long Yan curled his lips without comment.

He knew that since Ryumi Iemura came to him on his own initiative, it was bound to be bad news.

Here, we have to mention the SWORD area mentioned by Ryumi Iemura.

That was a neighborhood that was once ruled by a legendary organization called Mugen, and it was because of their overwhelming power that they were able to rule the area.

However, a duo called the Amemiya brothers refused to submit to Mugen, and fought Mugen to a draw with their own strength. Although the two teams were ultimately unable to determine the winner, Mugen was suddenly disbanded due to a certain incident, and the Amemiya brothers disappeared.

A year later, five organizations emerged in this area, namely the second-generation brawl house "Sanno Federation" of Sanno Street, the tempting white devil "WHITE RASCALS", the dark and vicious high school "Ghost High School", the ruthless neighborhood undead "RUDE BOYS", and the vengeful destruction family "Daruma Family".

The combination of the first letters of each organization is "SWORD", so this area is also called the "SWORD area", and the gangsters here are called "G-SWORD".

Jiacun Longmei's Jiacun Association was built with a group of "graduates" from Guixie High School. Although the rise of Jiacun Association was not fast among the core organizations of Kowloon, that was compared with Shanxin Jilong. In terms of combat power and financial resources, none of the nine core organizations of Kowloon Group can be underestimated.

However, if we really talk about it seriously, there are two situations that can barely be called exceptions.

Although Ryumi Iemura and several core members of the Iemura-kai all graduated from the Oniya High School, which is known as the "gathering place for banchou" and the "reservation center for yakuza cadres", Ryumi Iemura, as the president, prides himself on being a brainiac.

Violence is a necessary means for the Yakuza, but compared to violence, Ryumi Iemura prefers to use some conspiracies and tricks to achieve his goals in a more "easy" way.

This is also one of the reasons why Long Yan is fearless in the face of this underworld boss. He is very sure that he must have what Jiacun Longmei wants.

As for another reason...

Although he didn't want to admit it, it was an indisputable fact that the original owner Uesugi Ryuhiko's father, the Ninth Ryushin, was the president of the Kowloon Group. As long as the Ninth Ryushin was still alive, his life would be absolutely safe, at least in the next year. Therefore, he had no interest in the "olive branch" thrown by Iemura Ryumi.

He didn't believe that Ryumi Iemura would offend Yoshitatsu Zennobu for him. Even if Kurosaki Kunryū, who was known as the "strong contender for the second president" together with Yoshitatsu Zennobu, said so, he didn't believe it.

In the world of Yakuza, the only person you can trust is yourself.

Another exception in the Kowloon Group is Ryuhei Ueno, as mentioned by Ryumi Iemura.

Ryuhei Ueno is the chairman of the Ueno-kai, one of the nine core organizations of the Kowloon Group. Unlike the other eight organizations, the Ueno-kai, which is not good at fighting and killing, can be listed as one of the nine core organizations because of the many consortium companies and money laundering institutions under his command. Rather than saying that he is a gangster, it is better to say that he is a cunning businessman.

Like Long Yan, Ueno Ryuhei is quite good at making money and is one of the main sources of income for the Kowloon Group. Even though the Ueno Society has the lowest military strength among the nine major organizations, the presidents of the other eight organizations are polite to him.

There's nothing I can do about it, who told him he was rich.

After all, no matter where it is, the finance department is one of the most powerful departments.

After quickly sorting out the known information in his mind, Long Yan had basically figured out the current situation.

As mentioned before, apart from the president, Ryushin Kyu, the Kowloon Group is basically divided into two major camps, Kurosaki Kunryū and Zenshin Yoshiryū, which restrain each other. Coincidentally, Ryumi Iemura and Ryuhei Ueno belong to these two camps.

Under pressure from Yoshitatsu Yoshitatsu, the Ryuhiko family's dojo in the SWORD area was mortgaged to a bank under Ryuhei Ueno.

The SWORD region is a key development area in the business territory of the Kowloon Group, and Ryumi Iemura of the Kurosaki-kun dragon camp is the vanguard responsible for acquiring the area.

This is very interesting.

Although the acquisition of the SWORD area was related to the major strategic direction of the entire Kowloon Group and was a project that required concerted efforts, the investment and the management of political dignitaries and senior officials of the Metropolitan Police Department required a huge amount of money and connections.

However, this project is also a "test battle" for the next president, and the party that contributes the most will undoubtedly gain the upper hand in the subsequent competition.

Not to mention that the property rights of the dojo are still in Long Yan's hands. Even if it really belongs to Shanxin Jilong, even if it belongs to the Kowloon Group, Long Yan believes that Shanxin Jilong will never hand over this "credit" to Jiacun Longmei.

So, this is the reason why Ryumi Iemura came to visit this time.

He wanted to get the dojo through his own "legal" means. That way, even if the dojo was still mortgaged in the bank under Ryuhei Ueno, he would have a way to "release" it. It would just be a matter of spending a little more money.

As long as he can help Kurosaki Junlong become the president of Kowloon Group, he can make as much money as possible!

I have to say that Ryumi Iemura had a good plan.

Unfortunately, what he didn't know was that Long Yan at this moment was no longer the "cowardly" boy who would subconsciously look away when he saw them. In fact, to some extent, Long Yan at this moment might even understand him better than his own village Long Mei.

Thinking of this, Long Yan's mouth corners suddenly raised a meaningful arc, and an interesting idea instantly emerged in his mind.

“Want the property rights of that dojo?

Sure, but I have a condition."

Upon hearing this, Jiacun Longmei was overjoyed. While feeling proud, she also couldn't help but feel some contempt for Long Yan.

After all, he was just a little kid. When he heard that I was willing to protect him, he immediately agreed.

Oh, don’t you think about it? Now that you have lost this temple, what qualifications do you have to negotiate with me?

However, as a person who has been in a high position for a long time, Iemura Ryumi naturally would not let others guess what he was thinking easily. He asked in a deep voice without even changing the wrinkles on his face: "Do you want money? I am also your elder. If you are willing to sell it, I am willing to buy the dojo at a price 20% higher than the market price."

However, after hearing this, Long Yan shook his head slightly. He just stared at Iemura Ryumi in front of him, raised his chin slightly, and then responded softly.

"My gym is not the only one in the SWORD area. If you can defeat SWORD and take over the entire area, I will give you the gym."

Chapter 29: Develop slowly, stay steady and don’t waste time!

Long Yan's words finally brought a slight change to Iemura Ryumi's expression, which seemed as still as a mountain.

He didn't think that the conditions proposed by Long Yan were so harsh. After all, in his eyes, the five major forces of SWORD were just children playing house. Let alone the Kowloon Group, his village association alone was capable of eradicating them all.

What really made him feel uncomfortable was Long Yan's confidence that he seemed to have everything firmly in his hands from beginning to end.

He didn't understand where Long Yan's confidence came from.

Looking at the young man sitting at the bar, he was obviously just sitting there casually, but he gave him a feeling of being superior and as if he was being looked down upon. He had only felt this feeling from two people.

One is the Ninth Generation Dragon Heart, and the other is Kurosaki Junlong.

He had never felt this way even with Shanxin Jilong, who was considered one of the most likely contenders for the next president of Kowloon Group.

However, perhaps because he felt that he had overestimated the young man in front of him, or perhaps because he felt that he was making too much of a fuss, Jiacun Longmei's expression quickly returned to normal. He just looked at Long Yan calmly, as if he wanted to see through what Long Yan was thinking in his heart. It was not until a long while later that he spoke in response.
