Chapter 919: Biding Time

Ito Yuhiko's words made Ye Chen more or less stunned.

First, he didn't expect Ito Yuhiko to know so much about Chinese culture;

Second, he didn't expect Ito Yuhiko to mention the cycle of fate.

He didn't know if Japanese people believed in Feng Shui, but looking at it now, Japanese people at least believed in the cycle of fate.

Ito Yuhiko's words seemed like nonsense, but they vaguely contained some truth.

Everything he said was not completely groundless. After all, no one could really say for sure about this thing called the cycle of fate.

He remembered the hundred-year-old Feng Shui master he met at Mount Ye Ling in Yanjing, Lai Qinghua.

Lai Qinghua relied on the deduction of the cycle of fate to finally meet him at Mount Ye Ling.

It was also he who personally broke the fate of the dragon trapped in the shallow beach, allowing him to soar into the sky.

That old gentleman must have a deeper understanding and realization of the cycle of fate.

It's a pity that the old gentleman is on the other side of the ocean, and there might not be a chance to meet again in the future.

Otherwise, he would really like to sit opposite him, discuss the Dao over tea, and talk heart-to-heart.

However, Ye Chen suddenly thought of Ito Yuhiko's words just now.

Fate has cycles; perhaps in the future, he will meet Lai Qinghua again.

By the same token, if he leaves Tokyo and Japan today, perhaps one day in the future he will come back.

Even if he doesn't come back, he should have a chance to meet Ito Nanako again at some time and some place.

Thinking of this, Ye Chen sighed slightly and said to Ito Yuhiko, "Mr. Ito, I think it's better to leave the future to the future. After all, neither you nor I can control the cycle of fate."

Ito Yuhiko nodded and said earnestly, "Mr. Ye, from today on, the door of the Ito family will always be open for you. During this period in the future, the Ito family will recuperate and will not cooperate with any other overseas families or enterprises. If one day you have enough ambition and want to make your vision bigger, the Ito family can cooperate with you unconditionally at any time!"

Ye Chen laughed, "Thank you for Mr. Ito's kindness. However, I am a person with no great ambition, and I haven't gone to school much. I have no ambition and no ability, so let it be."

In Ye Chen's view, although his attitude towards Ito Yuhiko had changed, it was not enough for him to let down his guard against him.

Therefore, Ye Chen didn't want him to know his plans for the future.

In fact, in Ye Chen's heart, he very much hoped to use Jiuxuan Pharmaceutical to roll the snowball of his career bigger and bigger.

Because if he wanted to avenge his parents, relying solely on personal strength was useless. Not only must personal strength be strong, but economic strength was even more important!

Otherwise, facing a behemoth like the Su family, how could he deal with it alone?

Not to mention anything else, just the fact that the Su family could cross the river like a fierce dragon and directly kill the entire family of the local snake in Japan, Matsumoto, was enough to show how strong the Su family's backing was.

This not only showed that the Su family possessed an astonishing number of top experts, but also showed their extremely strong mobility. When Su Zhifei and Su Zhiyu had an accident in Japan, they could immediately send a large number of experts to swarm in. This deployment efficiency was not inferior to the US military.

Without sufficiently strong strength, relying solely on personal ability, no one could single-handedly challenge such a family.

Not to mention the combat power of dozens or hundreds of experts swarming in, he didn't even have the ability to protect the relatives and friends around him.

Therefore, Ye Chen knew very well that if he wanted to truly compete face-to-face with a family like the Su family in the future, he must have strong comprehensive strength and not rely on brute force.

What's more, until now, he still couldn't determine how much responsibility the Ye family had to bear for his parents' death.

If the Ye family had an unshirkable major responsibility in his parents' death, then what he might have to face in the future were the two top families, the Su family and the Ye family.

Therefore, Ye Chen had decided that after returning to Jin Ling, he would bide his time and develop Jiuxuan Pharmaceutical well.

Starting from Jiuxuan Pharmaceutical, step by step, he would build a business empire of his own.

Only in this way would he have the opportunity to compete face-to-face with the Su family and the Ye family, or even trample them under his feet!

Ito Yuhiko didn't know Ye Chen's true identity, and even less did he know what Ye Chen was thinking. Seeing that he really seemed to have no great ambition, he couldn't help but advise:

"Mr. Ye, you have Jiuxuan Pharmaceutical as a foundation and cash in your hands. Why not expand your business?"

"Take ocean shipping for example. Most of the international oil and bulk trade logistics rely on shipping. Under the current international economic downturn, it is a good opportunity to bottom-fish and layout!"

"Moreover, your China is currently the country with the best economic development momentum and possesses the most sound industrial system. Export trade is rising year by year. China's demand for ocean shipping to all parts of the world will become greater and greater. The prospects for ocean shipping are even broader!"

"If Mr. Ye is willing to do it, you can start from China. If you need to expand to Japan's port and shipping business, the Ito family will fully cooperate. Even if I have to be your green leaf, I am willing!"

At this time, Ito Yuhiko was thinking very simply.

The 4.5 billion US dollars definitely couldn't be asked back.

Jiuxuan Pharmaceutical definitely couldn't be invested in.

Since that's the case, it's better to find a way to attract Ye Chen step by step.

If he could recruit Ye Chen as a son-in-law to the Ito family, what else would he have to worry about in the future?

Ye Chen had strength, ability, and had saved his daughter's life. More importantly, his daughter was infatuated with him.

Before, he wanted his daughter to marry Kobayashi Ichiro. That wasn't because he had to force his daughter to marry into the Kobayashi family, but because his daughter at that time was just a silly girl who was loveless.

She didn't have anyone she liked herself, and she didn't know if she would move that muscle.

Rather than that, it was better for him as a father to choose the most suitable one for her.

However, she clearly already had a target she liked now. He, as a father, naturally hoped his daughter could get what she wanted.

Moreover, he also felt that a man like Ye Chen was indeed a good choice for a son-in-law.

For his daughter's happiness, he was even willing to let the entire Ito family become his daughter's dowry.

Anyway, he only had this one daughter, and everything was for his daughter to be happy and satisfied for a lifetime.

As for the Ito family's assets, whether they would be surnamed Ito, Yamada, Watanabe, or even Ye in the future, it didn't matter.

Because these assets would still be in the hands of his daughter, son-in-law, and the descendants born to his daughter.

In Ito Yuhiko's view, true inheritance is bloodline, not nationality, and not surname.

Ye Chen just smiled slightly at Ito Yuhiko's suggestion and said earnestly, "To tell you the truth, my current development focus is to do Jiuxuan Pharmaceutical well. If Jiuxuan Pharmaceutical can develop, then consider other businesses." ===== CHAPTER 920 =====
