Although he would not commit favoritism or corruption, he could not stop others from doing so first.
"Well, there are mainly two things." Uesugi Genshin put his hands on his face and moved his fingers slightly.
"Please speak." Horikita Manabu stretched out his hand.
Chapter 326: Aroused Interest
At this moment, there was an inopportune knock on the door, causing both of them to frown slightly, one in the middle and the other upwards. Yang Na leaned back against the chair, crossed her arms, and kept smiling.
What I didn't expect was that he wasn't the only one who came to see Horikita Manabu.
Instead, a group of people came together. They might have met downstairs or on the road. They said they had agreed to come together. Uesugi Genshin would never believe it even if he was beaten to death.
The leader was a middle-aged man with a big belly, and following behind him was a handsome blond man, Nan Yunya, but his sinister eyes made him look not so decent.
If you pretend a little, let's just call him a handsome guy, the kind of cool handsome guy.
"Oh, sorry. I didn't know you had a guest, Horikita-kun." The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment after seeing Uesugi Genshin and said this. It was probably mostly out of politeness because he recognized Uesugi Genshin and nodded politely to greet him.
"Since it is related to us, we can also sit in as an observer." Nan Yunya, who was standing behind the uncle, suggested, spreading her hands.
This suggestion quickly caused the group of people to look around, as if to indicate that it was the right thing to do, and they also whispered to each other.
Seeing this, Horikita Manabu took a deep breath and tapped the table with his finger bones, "Silence."
However, the uncle in the lead took a step forward with a sense of responsibility and said, "The supplies provided by Uesugi-kun this time are really a great help."
After saying this, it was obvious that he was present at the meeting. Uesugi Genshin didn't remember the other person's face, but he still raised his head slightly with satisfaction, "It's no big deal."
At this point it was impossible to drive them all away, and Nanyun Ya's words made it difficult to say "Let's talk next time."
Therefore, Horikita Manabu looked at Uesugi Genshin and let the other party make the decision. If he didn't intend to say it here, he would just end the conversation.
However, Uesugi Genshin looked at Haruno first, and the two of them looked at each other.
Then Yang Nai asked, "Are the people here trustworthy?"
It creates an atmosphere that what is coming next is very important, and those who are not qualified should not be here, so the problem can be thrown back smoothly.
This statement made the people on the other side look at each other and the people around them, but no one made a move, and no one would leave because wouldn't this just mean that they couldn't be trusted.
"Ha, they are indeed trustworthy." Horikita Manabu spoke first. At least everyone was willing to do something for the collective, and the matters on the artificial island could not be dealt with without them. His cooperation with Mr. Furukawa was still very smooth.
Although the other party was a president who cared about his employees before the end of the world, in Japan, the president of a small company also needs to bow and scrape to please customers, and even kneel down to apologize when necessary. If you think about it carefully, he seems to be no different from an ordinary corporate slave, and is a higher-level corporate slave.
The others are also middle and senior levels here. They have a group of people around them, so they have enough say.
"Oh." Turning back, Uesugi Genshin briefly introduced to Horikita Manabu: "The first thing is that I got in touch with a foreign diplomat at Haneda Airport last time. He was able to obtain a batch of arms by bribing the Self-Defense Forces officers, but he needed something of high value in exchange. It just so happened that I knew there was a bank in Nihonbashi with more than ten tons of gold stored underground."
"I see." Horikita Manabu pushed his glasses up, "So you want me to join you?"
Although it is a question, it is said in a declarative tone.
And it's not about asking him for help, but about asking him to join, which makes the dialogue context between the two parties more equal.
"Are you interested?" Uesugi Genshin leaned forward and asked, "I also called a group of people from the port area."
"Of course I'm interested." Horikita Manabu gave an affirmative answer, "But I still need some time to adjust."
"I understand." Uesugi Genshin nodded. After all, this place was like a mess.
If you leave it alone for a while, the situation will get worse soon.
"What about a gun?" the leader asked excitedly.
"Mr. Furukawa's team is responsible for a large part of the scavenging work." Horikita Manabu explained to Uesugi Genshin.
No wonder he was walking in front and Nan Yun Ya was hiding behind him. Uesugi Genshin understood.
Violence represents the right to speak, which also makes him one of the most powerful figures present.
But everything has two sides. If violence gets out of control, it will also give rise to crime, so Horikita Manabu personally went out to find his companions to form a team to go out, so that they would be healthy people with two hands.
"Mr. Furukawa has a Self-Defense Force soldier under his command. He has the only usable gun here." Horikita Manabu introduced again.
Maybe it’s another “deserter”, Uesugi Genshin thought, it can’t be that all the people in the garrison died.
And except for Furukawa, others seemed to be more interested in gold.
"Please sit down first." Horikita Manabu said to them.
The people who came over found a seat across the table from Uesugi Genshin and sat down, while Nanyun Miyabi sat next to Horikita Manabu as usual.
"Well, if it's gold, how much can we get?" one of them asked impatiently.
"That depends on the contributions of all parties." Uesugi Genshin said, tapping the table.
"Then we can send a lot of people." The man continued.
But Furukawa quickly stopped them, because they were the ones standing on the front line. To say it so easily showed that he didn't understand the hard work of the fighters. Nihonbashi was one of the most prosperous areas in the city.
Horikita Manabu also nodded in agreement with this point. This is also the reason why he and Mr. Furukawa get along so well. They are cautious but also courageous and decisive.
Yang Nai smiled softly at this time: "We hope to succeed in one go. After all, sacrifice is not so easy to accept, right?"
All the men present noticed this very beautiful young woman, who was dressed in an exquisite OL outfit and gave off a capable yet elegant temperament.
"Miss, what you said is right." Furukawa nodded.
"By the way, who is this person?" Horikita Manabu asked Uesugi Genshin. Most people might focus on the beauty of this new face, but he noticed the confidence she exuded.
This woman is not a vase, but more like a snake.
"Yukinoshita Haruno." Uesugi Genshin spread his hands towards Haruno, "The daughter of the leader of the Chiba Self-Help Committee who is cooperating with us has been in charge of external battles. She is now here as a partner."
"Eh..." Nan Yunya sighed, "Then who is the accountant from last time?"
"Yes, sisters." Yang Nai said with a smile.
After all, they have the same surname, and others are not fools. They are all very beautiful, so they will definitely be able to guess the connection.
"I didn't expect that the beautiful Miss Yukinoshita could fight like a man. That's really amazing." Nan Yunya couldn't help but praise.
"Really? It's no big deal~"
Although she spoke with a hint of modesty, the relaxed smile on Yang Noi's face contained confidence, even making people feel a little charming.
Chapter 327: Middlemen and Suppliers
Horikita Manabu interrupted what Nanyun Miyabi was going to say next, because the next words were most likely to be a chat-up.
According to his understanding of Nanyun, this man is a playboy who has made moves on many girls. Even now, there are rumors that he has slept with many girls.
So Horikita Manabu said to Uesugi Genshin: "We agree with what you said about deciding based on contribution."
"Then I'll let you know the time of the meeting later." Uesugi Genshin said to Horikita Manabu, "Since the Advanced Idol High School is right between our two homes, shall we hold the meeting here?"
"No problem." Horikita nodded, "Then what's the second thing you mentioned?"
"Actually." Uesugi Genshin put his arms on the table and rested his chin on his hands, changing to a more relaxed posture, "We have a fish canning factory there that can be put back into operation."
"I understand." Horikita Manabu understood that he wanted the Higher Education High School to provide the catch.
"Well, we can provide the fuel, and we will give you some of the canned food produced as compensation." Uesugi Genshin proposed his envisioned cooperation plan.
Although Sobu High School also has fishing boats, most of the fish are delivered to the cafeteria and there is not much room for producing canned fish.
The Advanced Breeding High School mainly relies on fishing to feed these thousands of people. Now that the problem of staple food has been partially solved, they don't have to worry about food for the time being, and the excess catch can be sent to him.
"That's a very good proposal." Horikita Manabu thought for a moment and said.
They don't dare to fish on a large scale because of the fuel problem. If the other side provides it, there will be no problem for them to go out to sea all day long.
Then he looked at the person in charge of the fishing boat here and discussed the feasibility.
The remaining issue is still one of distribution.
Yono was the first to propose a 9:1 ratio, with the most important fuel being provided by Sobu High School, and the other party only providing manpower, but was rejected.
This time she did not use the same line of speech she had used when talking to Kaguya Shinomiya, but instead spoke in a simpler way because the other party might not understand.
Instead, it turned into a negotiation.
The key point is that Sobu High School provided a factory that could produce reserve food to help them deal with the leftover fish, as well as fuel to support the acquisition of raw materials. The other party only paid in manpower, but they already had a lot of idle manpower, and when there was too much manpower, it became worthless.
In addition, the person in charge of fishing at the Higher Education High School also said that it is possible to use large fishing boats to go fishing in Tokyo Bay.
It was obvious from the moment they heard that this man was probably a professional fisherman, so Yang Nai agreed, and at the same time avoided the fuel they provided being used privately by the other party.
Sobu High School will also send people to follow the ships. In the future, ships leaving Tokyo Bay will be responsible for purchasing goods for the factory. At the same time, the large ships that are responsible for fuel will receive an 80:20 split. As for other fishing boats that provide their own fuel and want to sell them, the split will be 50:50.
"It's really a great help to make this cooperation possible. I'm really grateful for the support of Sobu High School." The person in charge of the fishing boat seemed relieved the moment the deal was reached and saluted respectfully.
"I don't deserve it. We are lucky that our abrupt opinions are adopted." After responding to the rigid diplomatic rhetoric, Yang No also bowed deeply again.
Then Uesugi Genshin and Horikita Manabu raised their heads, looked at each other's faces, and smiled gently at each other.
At the same time, the person next to him handed two draft contracts to Horikita Manabu. After he carefully read through them and made sure they were correct, he signed on them and handed them to Uesugi Genshin.
Uesugi Genshin took a look and saw that the principles that had been preliminarily drafted were written on it. He also asked Yang No to take a look, and he said there was no problem and signed his name.
At this time, Horikita Manabu said that they could add sealing film. After all, a piece of paper could easily be lost or damaged if not carefully taken. Uesugi Genshin then handed the contract to the other party first, and then took his copy back.
After that, the factory will continue to produce canned goods, and he can use these to exchange for crops at the Yukinoshita family. There are also no fishing boats at Shuchiin, so they can't go out to sea to fish for the time being. I don't know if they have such plans in the future, but I think Shirogane Miyuki will also be happy to exchange things for his canned goods.
Valuable items such as necklaces, rings, watches, etc., as well as fine wines and other things that they looted in the port area can be used as currency for transactions.
The value of running around was evident at this moment, and they were all happy to make such a deal.
If a highly-developed high school were to trade with them, it would cause unnecessary concerns.
This is undoubtedly very helpful for Uesugi Genshin's face. He or the Sobu High School behind him has a high reputation in various places. Just like now the entire Kotoyuki High School knows that it was Chiba Sobu High School that transported the food, and everyone present also remembered him.
"I'll have someone draft a formal contract, which will probably take a few hours." Horikita Gaku said to Uesugi Genshin, implying that he could wait a moment.
"There will be no problem before sunset." Uesugi Genshin was a little, no, very worried about whether the group of boatmen could park the boat at night. They had to return to Chiba at dusk at the latest.
"That's fine." Horikita Manabu nodded, then said to the others, "That's it. The content of this meeting must be kept confidential."
It is still necessary to remind people because there are so many people and they all say that it is no problem.
Uesugi Genshin and Haruno planned to wait until everyone else left the room before leaving the meeting room.
But at this time, Nanyun Ya walked alone to Yang Nao who was standing on the windowsill and enjoying the breeze and asked, "Do you mind chatting for a while?"
"What?" Yang Nai chuckled, "Are you trying to flirt?"
"Yes, I was just thinking about how to say hello to you and get to know you. You may think this is very old-fashioned, but I do think you are very beautiful. And my name is Nanyun Ya." Nanyun Ya said gently, "Can I buy you a cup of coffee?"
"Ah, thank you for the compliment." Yang Noi covered her mouth and chuckled, then walked behind Uesugi Genshin's chair and put her right hand on his shoulder, "Unfortunately, I'm busy."
"I see." In his opinion, an independent woman like Yang No should still be single, but... he guessed wrong.
Nan Yun Ya looked at Uesugi Genshin and gave him a look that said you are really awesome. Isn't this the sister of the accountant lady from last time? Originally, he thought that the one from last time was the one that Uesugi-kun liked.
"..."
"Nanyun, let's go." Horikita Manabu shouted from the doorway.
"Yes, yes." Nan Yunya shrugged helplessly, then waved goodbye to the two of them.
He was so nonchalant as if the failure of his previous approach was not worth mentioning. Although he was a veteran in the world of women, he was probably very experienced in the matter of being rejected when trying to approach someone.
"I don't think the guy's approach just now was particularly old-fashioned." Yang Nai complained after Nan Yunya left.
"Pfft." Uesugi Genshin laughed, "That's probably because he says this so often that he's tired of it. But... you really don't feel that way? I thought you were very popular before."
Yang No rolled her eyes and poked his cheek with her finger like a cat, "Do you think I used to have a lot of time to go out and play?"
I became relatively free after I went to college, and sometimes I would go out with my college friends.
So I have very little experience of being approached.
Chapter 328: Do you know your class teacher's room?
When there was no one in the meeting room, Uesugi Genshin was also ready to leave. He and Yono walked out the door together.
"Hmm~" Yang Nai stretched slowly, "Is everything okay?"
She looked at Uesugi Genshin who was lost in thought and called out, "Hey~"
"Ok?"
