Chapter 247: Naoki Nagayama! Still say you are not familiar with Yamaguchi-gumi?!!

~14 min read 2,608 words

"Naoki-san, is it a bit rude for me to go to your house like this?"

Shuichi In-do sat in the passenger seat of the convertible sports car, chatting with Naoki Nagayama while drinking canned beer.

"If it's the first time meeting uncle and aunt, you should at least bring some gifts? You have to leave a good impression on them!"

Naoki Nagayama was left speechless by Shuichi In-do's words:

"You guy is not a girlfriend meeting parents! Why so much drama!"

Yesterday, I just said it casually. I didn't expect Shuichi In-do to be so thick-skinned and get into Naoki Nagayama's car, claiming that he wanted to deeply and truly experience the culture of gang organizations.

"By the way, do you really want to see my grandfather? Yesterday I just said it casually. In fact, our family and grandfather's branch have been separated for a long time. I haven't seen them many times." Naoki Nagayama sincerely persuaded, "If you want to experience gang organizations, isn't it fine to find a few Yakuza in Tokyo?"

"No way, what do Yakuza little punks know? Even 'kono yaro' might not be said as well as I do" Shuichi In-do looked completely unafraid, learning their iconic tongue-rolling, "What's more, I am openly running out to take refuge!"

Shuichi In-do also has no way. If the investor continues to mess around like this, the movie can't be filmed.

But he was isolated and helpless in the crew, completely unable to talk to them. It's not that he wouldn't continue filming, but he could still "run away from home" to collect wind.

In order to express his dissatisfaction with the investor, Shuichi In-do planned to use this move to protest.

In this way, the initiative went to Shuichi In-do's side, and the investor became the anxious one. If they don't compromise, the movie filming progress will be greatly delayed. You know, dragging one day is one day's cost!

Shuichi In-do also considered the worst result, which is just changing the director. This broken movie, if it weren't for Renbo Shimizu pulling it over and Kadokawa investing in it, he really wouldn't want to film it!

Isn't it fragrant to film a movie with Naoki Nagayama? Didn't you see that he filmed it in half a month?

"By the way, Naoki-san, how is the editing work of the new movie? Do you need help?"

Naoki Nagayama didn't guess Shuichi In-do's thoughts.

"*A Scene at the Sea*? Haven't started editing yet, I've been working on the movie soundtrack for the past two days. However, editing is not very troublesome. It's all filmed according to the plot. It's fine with Masataka-kun~"

Hearing this, Shuichi In-do knew that there was no chance to participate in the editing.

"Souka, then I'll look forward to the final cut~"

It is October, and the coast from Tokyo to Shizuoka also has the feeling of autumn. On the coastal highway that is not often cleaned, there are obviously many traces of fallen leaves.

The green leaves of the evergreen trees on both sides of the road are deeper in the sun. On the slope a little far from the roadbed, the messy weeds show a withered yellow, revealing the black land that was originally covered.

And the coastline that can be seen on the other side, black reefs and gray beaches, are motionless in the gray-white foam constantly rising from the waves, and have completely lost the luster of spring.

"Shuichi-san, how long has it been since you saw the seascape?"

Naoki Nagayama put on the common posture of Takumi Fujiwara driving, holding the steering wheel with his left hand, placing his right hand on the car door, looking at the seascape while chatting with Shuichi In-do.

"Not very long, I went to Minato-ku in the summer." Shuichi In-do turned his head and saw Naoki Nagayama's way of driving.

"I said, Naoki-san, put both hands on the steering wheel, and look ahead~ It's very dangerous to drive like this!"

"Even if you don't worry about your own life, there is another person next to you! Yui-chan is waiting for me at home!"

Che, a guy who doesn't know how to look at the situation at all. My Shizuoka car god's driving posture is so stylish, you don't say it's handsome, but you actually worry that I will overturn?

How is that possible? There are no five-hairpin bends on this road, and even if there were, I wouldn't overturn!

From early in the morning, Kaede Nagayama in Shimizu City was a bit restless. His cousin was coming!

Naoki Nagayama called him the night before, saying he was bringing a friend to experience gang culture.

In fact, ever since Naoki Nagayama came to Shimizu's headquarters to see his grandfather, although there was still no intersection on the surface, the younger generation was not the kind of situation where they didn't communicate with each other. Important holidays would also make a phone call or something.

Anyway, they are close blood relatives.

Moreover, who knows that this big guy Kaede Nagayama is actually a fan of *Love Letter*!

Knowing that Naoki Nagayama is the author, he asked for a limited edition signed book of *Love Letter*!

And this time, this little cousin specially called to bring a friend to experience gang culture, and also said that the friend is a director, and he wants to film today's experience into a movie!

Gangs are also ordinary people. Who doesn't have a dream of being a movie star?

"Shoji, how can we show the characteristic culture of our Yamaguchi-gumi?" Kaede Nagayama asked his confidant little brother next to him.

"Yamaguchi-gumi's characteristic culture. Boss, I don't know either!"

A big and thick boss naturally has big and thick little brothers. It's no problem to let Shoji Hagiwara go to hack people, but it's really difficult to let him use his brain.

"Then you all think about it!"

He asked all the little brothers around, and then got a bunch of messy answers. Kaede Nagayama seemed to have found the final method, letting the little brothers call more people, and then went to prepare.

Kaede Nagayama smiled and thought: "In this way, it must be the best way to show the culture of Yamaguchi-gumi!"

This time, he didn't return directly to his hometown, but stopped in Shimizu City. His grandfather's home is here, and he also has things to deal with.

"Shuichi-san, let's stop in Shimizu first, we have things to deal with."

"What's the matter? Could it be that Naoki-san is going to see a little girlfriend?"

I didn't notice before, this guy Shuichi In-do is becoming more and more unreliable, and there is a rhythm of developing into a lecherous uncle.

"You guy needs to wash your brain well!" Naoki Nagayama was helpless, "Bought a tea garden before, now the workers need to talk."

While talking, he drove to the tea garden in the mountains of Shimizu. Keiko Fujita had already handled the property procedures for the tea garden before, but the tea garden needs people to operate, and there are workers left in the tea garden. This time, he just happened to deal with it.

50-year-old Masaharu Takayama is a person who has lived in the mountain town for a lifetime. Even when he was young, people said that the development under the mountain was rapid and money was earned more, but he didn't go out, but found a local girl to start a family, planted some land, and worked as a part-time worker in the tea garden for most of his life.

Some time ago, he heard that the tea garden owner sold the tea garden, and he was very sorry, but it didn't matter. Even if it was a new boss, he would need part-time workers to pick tea, so he honestly managed the tea garden during this time.

When Naoki Nagayama went up the mountain, he saw the figure in the tea garden. When he arrived at the small house by the tea garden, he called people back.

Shuichi In-do was strolling in the tea garden with interest, while Naoki Nagayama chatted with Masaharu Takayama.

"Takayama-san, the previous tea garden owner told me everything. You have been working in the tea garden for many years, right."

Although he didn't expect the new boss to be such a young handsome guy, Masaharu Takayama still respectfully stated his experience.

"Hai, I have been doing work in the tea garden with my father since I was a child. After growing up, I planted crops in the mountains. When several tea gardens nearby needed manpower, I would help."

"Then, Takayama-san, are you very familiar with the picking and stir-frying processing of tea leaves?"

"Hai, speaking of which, the tea leaves of our tea garden are also authentic Shimizu tea. Every spring, how to pick, where the tea leaves are the best...."

Speaking of the work in the tea garden, Masaharu Takayama, who originally looked very honest, had glowing eyes. With 40 years of experience, it can be said that no one knows the tea leaves in this mountain area of Shimizu better than him.

It's just a pity that he can't earn much money by just doing part-time work, and he has never had his own tea garden.

Naoki Nagayama listened to Masaharu Takayama's long speech with a smile, saw his mouth was dry, and added tea to his teacup once.

"Ah, sumimasen, I accidentally said so much."

"Daijoubu, hearing Takayama-san's words, I also gained a lot."

Seeing that the chat was almost done, Naoki Nagayama directly stated his purpose: "Takayama-san, I came here this time to discuss something with you."

Masaharu Takayama quickly put down the teacup: "Eh? Please say."

"The previous tea garden owner recommended many tea garden workers to come here to work, but I am not looking for part-time workers this time."

Naoki Nagayama looked at Masaharu Takayama's eyes. The old man over fifty seemed a bit worried.

"Is the tea garden not continuing to operate?"

"No, the tea garden still needs to operate, but it may be different from the past." Naoki Nagayama didn't go around in circles, "Takayama-san, I want to hire you as the long-term manager of the tea garden."

"Eh?! Long-term manager?" Masaharu Takayama was shocked.

"Hai, I may not have much time to come to the tea garden, so the daily management needs to be handled by you."

Naoki Nagayama has always believed that common interests can bring long-term harmonious cooperation, "If Takayama-san is willing to take the post, in addition to the daily salary, the income produced by the tea garden can also be divided, and there will be a red envelope at the end of the year according to the work situation of the year."

"This" Masaharu Takayama felt that a pie fell from the sky at this time.

"However, there is one point that needs to be told to Takayama-san in advance."

"Hai?" Masaharu Takayama seemed to have agreed to be the tea garden manager in a daze.

"The output of the tea garden will be higher in the future, and it can only be exclusively supplied to a tea house in Tokyo. It will only want tea leaves in the best picking season of the year, no more than a few hundred catties."

"Then other tea leaves." Masaharu Takayama knew that this tea garden could produce at least thousands of catties of tea leaves a year.

"Make the good quality tea leaves into matcha, and use the low quality tea leaves as fertilizer~"

"Eh?!" If so, it would be a real waste.

Naoki Nagayama hadn't finished speaking: "And Masaharu-san needs to find young girls around 15 years old to pick in the best picking season. At that time, I have to ask you to find people."

"Eh?!!!" What kind of operation is this?!!

Next, Naoki Nagayama continued to chat with Masaharu Takayama about treatment, living in the house here, and some other requirements.

Throughout the process, Masaharu Takayama either nodded or nodded and added a "Hai", and even when signing the contract at the end, he signed it in a daze.

"Shuichi-san, let's go!"

In the end, Naoki Nagayama pulled away Shuichi In-do who was strolling, and Masaharu Takayama hadn't come back to his senses yet.

When Masaharu Takayama's wife sent him lunch, the old man was still sitting blankly in the small house.

"Old man, what's the matter? Heatstroke?" The old woman said and touched Masaharu Takayama's forehead.

"Wife, my salary has increased."

"Nani? What nonsense are you talking about?"

"200,000 per month!" Masaharu Takayama said, "There is also a bonus at the end of the year!"

It was still Naoki Nagayama driving, and Shuichi In-do was curious on the side.

"When did Naoki-san buy a tea garden?"

"Last month, bought it after returning from Hawaii?"

"Want to sell tea leaves?"

"No, didn't I buy a shop in Ginza before? Changed it to a tea house, so I got a tea garden to supply tea leaves." Naoki Nagayama drove down the mountain, looking around, wanting to find a telephone booth.

"Do people who open tea houses have to buy tea gardens themselves?"

Shuichi In-do expressed that he couldn't understand the operations of rich people at all.

"Shuichi-san can also buy one, aren't you also very rich~"

The convertible sports car stopped by a telephone booth on the side of the road in Shimizu City.

Naoki Nagayama called his eldest cousin. In fact, he had already contacted him once yesterday. This time, he confirmed the arrival time.

"Hai, Kaede-big brother, we will be there soon." "Hai, just two people." "Hai, see you later."

After Naoki Nagayama got back in the car, looking at the somewhat sloppy Shuichi In-do, he scared him:

"Shuichi-san, my cousin Kaede Nagayama is the true third-generation successor of Yamaguchi-gumi, the kind with dozens of little brothers under his hand."

"I am not very familiar with the side of the uncle, and I haven't had much contact with gang affairs, and I don't know their rules or anything."

"So when we get there, after seeing the big cousin, be respectful when speaking!"

Shuichi In-do also became nervous, sat up straight, and tidied up his appearance:

"Hai, I know!"

Kaede Nagayama and his grandfather's family all lived in a large mansion in Anbara-cho, Shimizu City, but during the day, Kaede Nagayama and his little brothers also had their own small branch.

A two-story brick building surrounded by a wooden fence, the main entrance is made of bamboo, with a small eaves, and the sign of the Nagayama-gumi is hung at the entrance. There are no other residents within dozens of meters.

Such a detached small building in the city center is the headquarters of the Nagayama-gumi where Kaede Nagayama and dozens of little brothers are.

Naoki Nagayama parked the car at the entrance, took Shuichi In-do and rang the bamboo main entrance doorbell.

Not long after, I heard a neat sound of footsteps. A group of more than ten little brothers in uniform black suits quickly lined up in two rows on the path between the house and the main entrance.

Then Kaede Nagayama came to open the door himself.

"Naoki, long time no see! Come in quickly!"

"Hai, Kaede-big brother, long time no see!" Naoki Nagayama entered the main entrance and was about to introduce Shuichi In-do beside him.

I saw the little brothers on both sides of the aisle bowing collectively, shouting neatly and loudly:

"Boss Naoki! Welcome back!! You have worked hard!!!"

???!!!

Shuichi In-do was startled by this momentum.

Naoki Nagayama, still say you are not familiar with Yamaguchi-gumi?!!
