Chapter 819

Saturday, Japan's day off, but a group of people accustomed to working also climbed up early and found Liu Watching Liu Muhan to ask this and that.

"Wu Kezhang Liu, yesterday we only visited Japan's economy. Shouldn't we go see Japan's scenery today?"

"Yes, we are going to Ueno Park today. Everyone act together, don't fall behind."

"Ueno Park? Shouldn't we go to Mount Fuji? Coming to Japan and not going to Mount Fuji, isn't that as regrettable as going to our mainland and not reaching the Great Wall?"

"Hey, why do you people only listen to half of what's said? Wu Kezhang Liu means we go to Ueno Park first, then go to Mount Fuji..."

"Oh, oh, oh, oh, I was confused. Don't take offense, little Wu Kezhang Liu."

"..."

Liu Watching Liu Muhan looked at the high spirits of her compatriots and sighed helplessly: "I have already contacted Mitsubishi. They also rest on weekends and cannot provide us with tour services, so we can only pay for it ourselves."

"Pay for it ourselves?"

The crowd was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Wu Kezhang Liu, don't we have funds? Even if it's self-funded... it shouldn't matter, right?"

"Exactly! We're just taking a car, taking a photo, not ordering other services or staying in big star-rated hotels. How much can it cost?"

Liu Watching Liu Muhan said in a deep voice: "Our standard for each person is 4,000 yen. Now, taking a taxi on the streets of Tokyo starts at 5,000 to 10,000 yen. Although we can take a bus to Mount Fuji, other expenses are still beyond what we can bear."

The crowd was silent for a few seconds, and silent resentment began to spread.

"Why are our funds so low? Not even enough for a car ride?"

"Exactly! This isn't our first time out for inspection and visits; I've never seen anyone so stingy."

"4,000 yen a day, isn't that not even enough for food? Didn't the meals Deputy Factory Director Li bought the day before yesterday exceed the standard?"

"Wu Kezhang Liu, I have to express an opinion on this matter. We are out representing the image of the mainland. An inspection team from a great country can't even afford a taxi ride—wouldn't that make people laugh?"

Xiao Xiao Jingang and the others complained while looking at Li Ye and Liu Watching Liu Muhan.

Do not worry about scarcity, but worry about inequality. Why do you get to eat and drink well, while we have to be stingy?

Everyone is human; why is it so different?

Liu Watching Liu Muhan's face turned cold and stern.

After 1985, the yen appreciated sharply, and the service industry charges in Japan also rose sharply. In the 1980s, the starting price for a taxi on the streets of Tokyo was 10,000 yen, which was higher than the monthly income of Chinese people at the time.

But because the yen exchange rate rose sharply and the economy continued to bubble, the average wage of Japanese people was equivalent to RMB, so the Japanese didn't feel it was expensive; instead, they felt everything was cheap.

In Tokyo in the 1980s, it was very difficult to get a taxi at night, so people had to wave 10,000 yen banknotes (almost equivalent to 70 dollars today) to attract the driver's attention.

But do Xiao Xiao Jingang and the others know these things?

Liu Watching Liu Muhan scolded seriously: "Is 4,000 yen very little? According to today's official exchange rate, 4,000 yen is equivalent to 100 RMB. Our daily funds are a mainland worker's monthly salary. Do you still think it's little?"

"..."

"It shouldn't be that much, right? Isn't the yen very worthless?"

"Worthless? In April this year, one dollar exchanged for 140 yen, and it's still rising. And one dollar equals 3.72 RMB. Do you think I'm lying?"

No one questioned Liu Watching Liu Muhan's words.

Although mainlanders don't understand the world economy, their arithmetic level is very high. A quick mental calculation tells them that 4,000 yen can exchange for more than 100 RMB. This is still the official rate; if it were the black market...

"Hiss~"

This is public money, not self-funded. You spend a worker's monthly salary in one day. If they weren't satisfied with this, and the worker brothers found out, they would block your door and curse for three days without catching their breath.

Seeing that everyone had been suppressed, Liu Watching Liu Muhan softened her tone and said: "Japan's service industry charges have been getting higher and higher in recent years, but industrial product prices are actually decreasing.

You can buy a very good camera for 20,000 yen. I discussed it with several leaders, and we have been saving for everyone, intending to distribute it to everyone at the end..."

"..."

Xiao Xiao Jingang and the others' little schemes began to calculate again, weighing whether it was more cost-effective to take the money back and exchange it on the black market, or to be a high-end reseller for once.

At this time, Gu Gu Jianqi, who had been silent, suddenly said: "I am going to visit my Japanese friend today, so I won't act with everyone. My funds for these two days can be used by everyone on average."

Liu Watching Liu Muhan was stunned and asked: "Elder Gu, are you going out alone today? Do you need Xiao Hu to follow you as an interpreter?"

Gu Gu Jianqi had already stood up and walked out: "My friend understands Chinese, don't worry! I'm an old man almost retired; can they still kidnap and sell me?"

"..."

Hearing Gu Gu Jianqi say this, Liu Watching Liu Muhan really couldn't say anything.

Most of the cases of people leaving without permission and staying abroad during trips occurred among young and middle-aged people. For someone like Gu Gu Jianqi, who was almost sixty, it really hadn't happened.

"Secretary Guo, then please register Elder Gu's friend's identity information, contact method, and contact address with me. This is the system; please understand me..."

"Yes, yes, yes, we understand this."

Secretary Guo was prepared and registered some information with Liu Watching Liu Muhan, but while registering, he quietly looked at Li Ye.

Li Ye went out without permission and didn't seem to have registered, but he went out alone, so it wasn't under Liu Watching Liu Muhan's control.

Secretary Guo was looking at Li Ye, and Li Ye was also looking at Secretary Guo.

He was a bit strange. The stock market is not open today; what are they going out to do?

Could it be that, as Wei Song Xiaobao said, after making money, one must "spend, spend?"

Gu Gu Jianqi's so-called Japanese friend is inseparable from Chu Chu Yunling, and Chu Chu Yunling's business scope is very wide.

【Is the reception arranged by Chu Chu Yunling decent or not?】

Li Ye would not follow Liu Watching Liu Muhan and the others to visit Ueno Park. Unless it's visiting as a couple with a girl you like, there's not much point.

So Li Ye went to his mother's place for a free meal, and by the way, pacified the restless hearts of some people.

"Yo, A Min, you came over so early?"

As soon as Li Ye entered Fu Fu Guiru's residence, he saw that A Min had already arrived and was lying on a pile of stock market data with his mother Fu Fu Guiru, studying it carefully.

Seeing Li Ye enter, A Min hurriedly came over to welcome him: "Mr. Li, I've always been used to getting up early. Since there's nothing to do, I came over to discuss some things with President Fu."

Li Ye looked at the data printouts scattered on the coffee table and sofa and said with a smile: "Aren't there specialized people to analyze this data? Why are you looking at this?"

Fu Fu Guiru can manage the company for Li Ye because of her resilience, steadiness, and composure in the face of danger.

And A Min can become Pei Pei Wencong's right-hand man because of her loyalty and reliability. So Li Ye felt that Fu Fu Guiru and A Min looking at this basic data wouldn't really reveal anything.

Because not to mention ordinary people, even professionals have personal bias when analyzing financial data, let alone non-professionals.

When a stock's rise and fall are 50/50, those who want to make money will think it "must rise," and those who want to bottom-fish will think it "must fall." Who can see this thing clearly?

Fu Fu Guiru looked up at Li Ye and said unhappily: "If I leave everything to others to look at, wouldn't I become deaf and blind?

You, an economics graduate, are playing the role of a hands-off manager, letting us earn money for you, and you still have the nerve to say such things?"

Li Ye blinked his eyes, not daring to refute Fu Fu Guiru's words. After all, he really was a hands-off manager, and his mother was working hard as his partner.

Seeing the God of Wealth being scolded, A Min hurriedly smoothed things over: "Mr. Li, you don't understand our thoughts. Although this data looks very complicated, if we don't look at it for a day, we feel uneasy, and the people below are also likely to think we don't understand anything."

"Yes, yes, yes, looking at it has benefits, and the people below won't dare to deceive you at will. It's me who is too young and didn't consider it thoroughly..."

Li Ye hurriedly went down the slope following A Min's words. Fu Fu Guiru and A Min are now managers in charge of a large number of employees; it doesn't matter if they don't understand, but they must pretend to understand.
