Chapter 1095

~14 min read 2,672 words

The originally secluded Shanyingyuan has indeed been lively several times this year, and today it once again ushered in the annual cherry blossom viewing party.

Changing flowers, making pastries, preparing big meals, waking up red wine... With the help of two live-in nannies and one butler, this year's cherry blossom viewing party was prepared in an orderly manner.

Even Nyataro and Eitaro were groomed the day before, and now they look radiant.

I don't know when Nyataro started to like lying next to the crib, sometimes interacting with Xia Hua, who was moving around—it was about stretching out his claws to let little Xia Hua grab, but she couldn't grab it no matter what... just like a person teasing a cat with a cat teaser~

And Eitaro looked silly, always chasing behind the master and mistress, occasionally hitting Naoki Nagayama's legs with his thick tail.

Akina didn't dare to knock with her tail, because her ears would be pulled, but Naoki Nagayama wouldn't, instead he would touch the dog's head~

Japanese people are very particular about time when visiting. They will arrive at the agreed time, at most ten minutes early as a buffer. Arriving hours early would be considered rude.

So around 11 o'clock, Akina said:

"The guests should be coming!"

"It's about time..." Naoki Nagayama nodded, then looked at the positions. "Otomo-san's family, Xiuyi-san's family, Yuantai-san's family, Feng-dage's couple, Masataka-kun, Kijima-kun..."

The core circle of the small group didn't have many people to begin with, plus Naoki Nagayama's family and their families, it didn't exceed twenty in total.

The scale was far smaller than little Xia Hua's full-month banquet, but the relationship between these people and Naoki Nagayama was closer.

"Should be no problem, right?" Akina also walked over. "Food and space are enough..."

"Mm, no problem, just wait for them to come."

Naoki Nagayama nodded, then led the dog to the courtyard.

"Eitaro, perform well today, don't be a silly dog, you know?!"

"Woof?"

"I mean, don't ask guests for food while eating!"

"Woof..."

Eitaro's eyes were full of grievances. He was just not full, is that wrong?!

While Naoki Nagayama was training the dog, a Mercedes-Benz car drove to the door. Butler Alfred remotely opened the door and guided the car to park in the parking space in the courtyard.

Just as it stopped, the back door of the car opened, and a little girl in a floral dress jumped out and waved at Naoki Nagayama:

"Naoki-gege!"

"Regarding Jia Yi-chan!" Naoki Nagayama looked at the running Regarding Jia Yi Yin with a smile. "You've grown taller, and you've become prettier!"

"Arigato~"

The little girl smiled a bit shyly. She was already in middle school and was at the age of budding youth. Seeing a handsome guy like Naoki Nagayama naturally made her very happy.

Naoki Nagayama was just about to tease the little girl when he heard Xiuyi Yin's voice:

"Regarding Jia Yi-chan, why are you so impolite? Call him Naoki-shushu!"

"Blegh~" Regarding Jia Yi Yin didn't care about her old dad at all. "Naoki-gege is so young and handsome, how can I call him shushu!"

"He is of the same generation as Dad!"

Xiuyi Yin parked the car and walked over, his face very unhappy...

She actually ran out to find Naoki Nagayama before the car stopped. Is there any girl's reserve left?!

"Tsk... old-fashioned!" Regarding Jia Yi Yin turned her head and tsked, then said to Naoki Nagayama, "Naoki-gege, I'm going to see Xia Hua!"

"Oh... she's in the small living room..."

Xiuyi Yin brought his wife, Jiawei Yin, over. This guy's face was very unhappy...

She actually ran out to find Naoki Nagayama before the car stopped. Is there any girl's reserve left?!

"Sigh, the daughter is grown up, can't control her..."

Xiuyi Yin walked over, sighing and shaking his head.

"Xiuyi-san..."

His wife, Jiawei Yin, next to him, said with a full face of smiles:

"Naoki-san, don't worry about him... Ever since Regarding Jia Yi got close to a male classmate before, Xiuyi has become more and more jealous!"

"W-what jealousy?!" Xiuyi Yin was a bit broken, stammering, "I just don't want Regarding Jia Yi-chan to be deceived by that little yellow hair!"

"... Pubescent girls will only resist more if you control them, right?"

"Anyway, I don't allow any yellow hair to approach my daughter! My only precious daughter!"

For this daughter slave, Naoki Nagayama didn't know what to say. He looked at Xiuyi Yin and Jiawei Yin next to him, and suddenly smiled:

"Xiuyi-san... how about, have a second child?"

"??"

"This way, you won't just have one precious daughter! Maybe you'll have another treasure to protect!"

"..."

"Ahahaha~"

Naoki Nagayama laughed and led Xiuyi Yin into the living room. After chatting for a while, the other guests arrived slowly.

Otomo Fangcun's son, Jingxin Fangcun, had grown up and was taller than his father; Yuantai Nakai's son, Xiangtai, was already running with short legs, chasing Eitaro; Feng-dage brought his pregnant wife, Xinhai Nagayama, and it looked like she would give birth in about a month...

Tsuruko also came, but she had been coming to Shanyingyuan very frequently during this period, so it was nothing special~

Everyone seemed to have more changes than last year, but fortunately, they were all in their prime, all full of youthful vitality.

You say Otomo Fangcun? He was only in his fifties, and fifty is also the age to venture out!

Everyone came to the side of the dry landscape scenery in the courtyard, looking at the pink clouds on the cherry blossom tree, and couldn't help but marvel.

Otomo Fangcun even adjusted his glasses:

"Naoki-san, is this cherry blossom tree in your house blooming more luxuriantly than last year?"

"Seems like there are more flowers..."

"In Tokyo's October cherry blossoms, I haven't seen any more beautiful than the one in Naoki-san's house." Xiuyi Yin was also sighing.

"Yes, yes!" Feng Nagayama was very envious and hooked his cousin's shoulder. "Naoki... tell me secretly, you didn't really bury your little finger under the tree root, did you?!"

"..."

The cherry blossoms under the warm autumn sun were shining. A gust of wind blew, and the pink petals fell like snowflakes. Against the background of the white dry landscape and the flower carpet on the ground, it really looked like a cherry blossom snow was falling!

"Cherry blossom snow!" "So beautiful!" "Really beautiful..." "..."

Several women and children looked at this scene and made exclamations. Even Xia Hua, who was held in Akina's arms, seemed to be immersed in this beautiful scenery at this time.

Eitaro was squatting next to his master, enjoying it together. Suddenly, a petal fell on his nose with the wind, making the dog immediately motionless, his two eyes curiously staring at the petal on the tip of his nose...

Lunch was eaten in the living room. The ingredients were prepared very richly, and everyone ate very happily.

After lunch, the women chatted around Xia Hua, while Naoki Nagayama and the others sat on the eaves corridor, drinking tea while continuing to admire the beautiful cherry blossom scenery.

Of course, the highlight was indispensable, which was listening to Naoki Nagayama's bragging...

"Japan is finished! I said it!"

Naoki Nagayama had drunk a lot of wine and was now a bit tipsy, and his speech became much bolder...

"In these few years! Three years, at most no more than five years, the economy will definitely be finished! Overall collapse!"

"???" Yuantai Nakai didn't believe it. "Naoki-san, you're too exaggerated... Although I also admit that there are some risks in financial policy, it won't reach the point of overall collapse, right?"

Since the signing of the *Plaza Accord*, the yen had been constantly appreciating. Although this put pressure on foreign trade exports, it also provided convenience for Japanese companies to go global and expand overseas.

In addition, under the loose monetary policy, the Japanese stock market and housing market continued to rise, which also made international capital see the potential of the Japanese stock market to make steady profits, and a large amount of international capital entered Japan...

In fact, as long as Japan could make good use of this market trend, vigorously develop real industry, and carry out industrial upgrading and transformation, then maybe it could become a highly developed high-tech country in the future!

"It's just a pity that capital is profit-seeking!"

Naoki Nagayama talked eloquently.

"Have you noticed that the Japanese stock market and housing market are too hot now, and there is already a trend of shifting from real industry to finance?"

"Because it's too profitable, everyone wants to invest money in the stock market and housing market, and no one wants to invest in real industry!"

Feng Nagayama scratched his head:

"Is there anything wrong with this? Isn't it good to be able to make money?"

Naoki Nagayama nodded:

"From the perspective of a company, it's naturally good to be able to make money. If the stock market and housing market make money, then going to these two industries is definitely not wrong!"

Even he himself had Shuyou Capital, which was making money in the stock market and housing market.

"But from the perspective of the national economy, this won't work... The essence of the stock market and housing market is people's expectations for company profitability and housing price appreciation, which ultimately has to fall to the real economy..."

"If you look at the real economy as the rubber skin of a balloon, capital is the air blown into it. As capital is injected, the balloon gets bigger and bigger, and the skin of the balloon will get thinner and thinner..."

"What do you think will happen in the end?"

Everyone was thinking, a bit silent, but Jingxin Fangcun, who was listening for the first time, spoke directly:

"Balloon explosion?!"

"Yes, it will explode!" Naoki Nagayama laughed. "Stock market crash, housing price collapse, economic downturn, people going bankrupt and jumping off buildings everywhere... Afterward, it will be a mess!"

"..."

Yuantai Nakai imagined such a situation and shivered subconsciously, but he was still a bit stubborn.

"Naoki-san, you're too exaggerated... Besides, even if this is the case, you can use this opportunity to make money in the stock market and housing market before the balloon explodes!"

"Yes, I didn't say it wouldn't work!" Naoki Nagayama drank a cup of warm tea. "Wasn't Shuyou Capital doing just that before?"

"The key is that you are not sure about the time of the balloon explosion, so you have to prepare for risk avoidance in advance!"

Yuantai Nakai finally understood:

"So you wanted to slowly reduce funds in Japan before and transfer them to the US... and also stopped buying land..."

In fact, Naoki Nagayama now had hundreds of billions of funds in the Japanese stock market, and the land in his hands was worth more than 50 billion... compared to the previous year, he had already made a lot~

If he starts to transfer slowly now, maybe in three years, his total assets in Japan will exceed 200 billion, plus the assets in the US, it is estimated to exceed 1.5 billion US dollars.

"But how can you be sure that it will be within three years?! And why start transferring assets so early?"

"..."

Of course, he was afraid of the butterfly effect!

Now that he had so much capital, any random action would affect the stock market. What if the bubble burst a year early under the influence of the butterfly effect?!

Besides, when the economy is about to go bankrupt, the upper echelons must know in advance. At that time, if you want to transfer assets, the difficulty will increase too much!

"Intuition!"

Naoki Nagayama is not an economist, and besides, even a professional economist cannot predict the specific time!

So he attributed everything to intuition!

"From my observation, the balloon is blown up and then explodes, this trend is certain... But as for the time, it can only rely on intuition..."

However, everyone present didn't doubt Naoki Nagayama's intuition... After all, everyone here had witnessed Naoki Nagayama's inspiration as if a god had appeared~

"So that's how it is..."

Yuantai Nakai came here this time to resolve the doubts in his heart, and after chatting with Naoki Nagayama, he really felt that his ideological imprint was much firmer!

He decided to follow the direction given by Naoki-san in the future!

Feng Nagayama, who didn't understand economic trends at all, was a bit worried after hearing about the situation after the balloon explosion. He still had to live in Japan!

"Naoki, if the economy collapses, what should we do? Will KTV also..."

"Eh? That won't happen!" Naoki Nagayama laughed. "By that time, the entertainment industry might even flourish!"

When the economy is in a depression, several industries are still strong: the entertainment industry, the pet industry, the second-hand recycling industry... Of course, there is also the funeral industry!

People can choose not to have children because of economic pressure, but people will always die!

Feng Nagayama's KTV and the Shuyou Group's film industry can be counted as the entertainment industry, which can allow people to obtain some dopamine comfort at a low cost.

So as long as Shuyou Capital's financial investment avoids risks early, the core circle of people who came to the cherry blossom viewing party will almost not be affected by the "thirty years of regression."

Even the mining and forestry rights laid out in his hometown of Shizuoka have the ability to maintain value across cycles.

"Naoki-san, what should small families do?"

Everyone has relatives and friends who are not rich, and they may not be able to participate in large investment operations... What if they encounter an economic collapse?

"Buy more gold!"

The cherry blossom viewing party at Shanyingyuan didn't actually arrange any big plans. Those were all arranged in daily work and life.

It was more about Naoki Nagayama communicating his views with others, and also letting each family understand each other better, so that everyone could be closely united...

This cherry blossom viewing party lasted until the evening, and everyone had dinner before going back...

At night, in the bedroom.

Eitaro lay on the door mat and yawned. The rapid breathing in the room had ended.

Naoki Nagayama stroked Akina's smooth skin, his mind empty, not knowing what he was thinking...

"Naoki-san, are we going to the US in the future?"

Akina suddenly asked.

"Hm?" Naoki Nagayama glanced at Akina, who was leaning on his chest. "Why ask suddenly?"

"In the afternoon, I listened to some of your chats..." Akina drew circles on Naoki Nagayama's chest with her hand. "So I thought we were going to the US in the future..."

"Money going over doesn't mean people have to go over..."

Although the US is now considered a free country and a beacon of democracy, Naoki Nagayama still likes Asian and Eastern culture.

And since it's not convenient to go to the mainland, Japan is the best substitute.

"In the future, we will have assets all over the world. If we are curious, we can go and live for a while as a vacation..." Naoki Nagayama said with a smile. "But we will mainly live in Tokyo."

"Like the Red Fish Garden in Kyoto?"

"Yes..." Naoki Nagayama nodded. "Like the Red Fish Garden!"

A Red Fish Garden was built in Kyoto, but they hadn't lived there many times!

"Naoki-san, after the movie is filmed, shall we go to the Red Fish Garden for a few days?" Akina raised her upper body slightly on Naoki Nagayama's chest and looked closely at her husband. "Bring Xia Hua too!"

"Good!"

Naoki Nagayama looked at the exquisite face under the soft light, the slender neck outlined by light and shadow, the round shoulders, and the soft jade and warm fragrance he felt on his body. His young body responded again.

"But before that, Akina... let's do it again!"

Saying that, he kissed her!

"Hm? Woo woo..."
