Chapter 1673

Author: Lord Leaf
Yashiko looked down whenever he thought of his potential partnership with the Schulz family.

In the car, he sighed, saying, “Tanaka, Japanese economic development has been in a slump for a decade. Not only our family but the fortunes of a few prestigious families have been affected and shrunk. Also, our heirs are not as capable…”

Tanaka asked hurriedly, “Chairman, Japan was once the most developed country in the world for a few decades ever since the world war. Why hasn’t it kept up for the past ten years?”

Yashiko replied regretfully.

“There are many reasons contributing to this slowed-down economy. Firstly, there is a limited supply of natural resources and land in Japan. Secondly, there were no recent breakthroughs in the Japanese information technology industry.”

Yashiko continued emotionally, “Look, gone are those years when many Japanese sectors were on top of the world. These sectors have gradually lost their significance in recent years.”

“Back in those days, Sony, Panas

Absolute bollocks. Samsung has the biggest global market share of mobile phones followed by Apple with Xiaomi coming third based on Q2 2024 figures. ‘Oskia’ is also a hotbed of imitation goods. Too much propaganda rather spoils the story line

    As Japan’s top financial magnate, Ito family had been continually losing its grip on the country’s economy.Another huge Japanese family, Takahashi family, also faced the same dilemma.Both families were actively seeking breakthroughs. So, both pinned all their hopes on the top Chinese families.As the top family in China, Schulz’s family’s influence had been on the rise for the past few years and as China rapidly developed, so did the strength of the Schulz family. Schulz family’s primary focus these past few years had been maintaining and consolidating the domestic market. In these past two years, they began turning their attention to the overseas market after securing its position as the top conglomerate in China.As a result, many Japanese families and tycoons were eager to develop in-depth collaborations with Schulz family. Over the past ten years, China’s import and export trade had continued to grow. The demand for shipping boomed, and the construction of new ports had been ex

    In the afternoon, Charlie expelled and fired nearly half of the entire staff working for Kobayashi Pharma with incredible ease.These people from Kobayashi Pharma were originally thinking of using a strike to fight against Charlie. However, they never expected that Charlie would not be softhearted at all. Instead, he fired all of them directly without leaving even a single person behind. This incident caused a major commotion in the Japanese business community!First of all, no one would have thought that Kobayashi Pharma, which had been developing and growing so well, would experience a sudden change of ownership. Ninety percent of Kobayashi Pharma’s shares had already been transferred to an Oskian, and it was now officially an Oskian company. Secondly, no one would have thought that after Kobayashi Pharma became an Oskian company, it would fire more than half of its employees at one go!In Japan, apart from bankruptcies, very few companies would suddenly expel and fire so many

    Charlie nodded in satisfaction as he said to Ichiro, “From today onward, you have to cooperate and work together with Liam to readjust all the production plans for Kobayashi Pharma. I want you to stop all of Kobayashi Pharma’s current and previous production, and you will switch to fully producing the Apothecary Stomach Pill on all production lines. Do you understand?”Ichiro hurriedly and sincerely replied, “Don’t worry, Mr. Wade. I will surely give my utmost cooperation to Mr. Weaver!”Liam spoke to Charlie at this time, “Mr. Wade, Kobayashi Pharma has a very strong production capacity. If we are going to start producing the Apothecary Stomach Pill at full scale, we will also be demanding a very huge amount of raw materials for the Apothecary Stomach Pill in advance. We should make sure that we are fully prepared for this. Otherwise, our production capacity will certainly be severely restricted when we have insufficient raw production materials.”Charlie nodded and said, “I will s

    After Graham had hung up the phone, Aurora, who was next to him, asked curiously, “Dad, what did Master Wade say when he called you?”Graham, who was still lost in his excitement, was still unable to free himself from this excitement. He took a few seconds to recover and regain his composure before he said excitedly, “Aurora! The Quinton family has been given an extremely great opportunity!”Aurora asked in surprise, “Dad, what kind of extremely great opportunity are you talking about?”Graham was so excited that he was still trembling a little as he spoke, “It’s Master… It’s Master Wade… Master Wade has taken over Kobayashi Pharma in Japan. He said that he will appoint our Quinton family to supply him with all the raw medicinal herbs and materials in the future. The annual demand is almost one million tons!”“Oh, my God!” Aurora exclaimed in amazement, “One million tons? Our family is currently only supplying about two hundred thousand tons a year, right?”“That’s right…” Graham

    Ninety percent of Kobayashi Pharma’s shares had been transferred under the Apothecary Pharmaceutical’s name now.As the production work and process at Kobayashi Pharma was very important now, Charlie could not leave Tokyo for the time being. He wanted to ensure that all of Kobayashi Pharma’s production lines had been successfully converted to fully produce the Apothecary Stomach Pill before he leaves Japan.So, the first production line that needed to be converted to produce the Apothecary Stomach Pill was Kobayashi Pharma’s production base in Tokyo.Charlie asked Liam to take an inventory of all the medicinal herbs and materials that were present at Kobayashi Pharma at this time. After that, he wanted Liam to count all of the medicinal herbs and materials that could be used to produce the Apothecary Stomach Pill. Next, Liam needed to calculate the quantity of other medicinal herbs and materials that would be needed based on the production capacity of the production lines in Tokyo.

    At Kyoto City, which was hundreds of kilometers away from Tokyo.The huge Ito family mansion with a century-old history was located in the center of Kyoto City.The Ito family mansion was located next to the Azuchi Castle, which was the residence of Oda Nobunaga, one of the three great unifiers during the Sengoku period in Japan. Although the surface area of the Ito family mansion was slightly smaller compared to the Azuchi Castle, the overall surface area was already much larger compared to the largest standalone family villa in Eastcliff.There was a moat that had been excavated during the war surrounding the mansion, and it bore the heavy responsibility of guarding the mansion.Three hundred and sixty degrees surveillance cameras were installed on the walls to capture all the blind spots and ensure that no one would be able to trespass and enter the mansion without any permission.Many bodyguards were armed with live ammunition behind the towering mansion walls.The buildings

    As her thoughts were running wild, the cell phone in her pocket suddenly started ringing.When she took out her cell phone, she realized that it was a phone call from Tanaka-san. She hurriedly put her thoughts aside before she answered the call, and she smiled as she said, “Tanaka-san, why are you calling me so late at night?”Hiroshi sighed as he said, “Miss, something happened today. The chairman is very angry, and he smashed and destroyed a lot of antiques at home.”Nanako felt very nervous and anxious when she heard this, and she hurriedly asked, “Tanaka-san, what happened? Did my Eminent Father encounter some sort of trouble?”Hiroshi said, “The chairman brought me along with me to Kobayashi Pharma because he intended to sign a share transfer agreement with the board of directors of Kobayashi Pharma. After signing the agreement, the chairman asked the staff from the financial department to transfer four and a half billion US dollars over to Kobayashi Pharma’s account…”When N

    Hiroshi really did not expect that the eldest young lady would actually sound so happy and excited when she heard that Charlie was currently in Japan.He could not help but secretly think to himself, ‘Didn’t I make everything really clear just now? Charlie has already cheated your father out of four and a half billion US dollars! Why does it seem like you are really excited when you hear that he is in Japan?’However, Hiroshi did not dare to ask her this question at all.When Nanako saw that Hiroshi did not respond to her question, she hurriedly asked him, “Tanaka-san, answer me quickly! Is Charlie-kun really here in Japan now?”Hiroshi could only reply honestly, “Yes, miss. He is already here in Tokyo, Japan. I saw him here today.”Nanako replied, “Did he come to Japan to take over Kobayashi Pharma?”“That should be the case.” Hiroshi replied truthfully, “I don’t know the specific and exact details, but he should be here to take over Kobayashi Pharma.”Nanako felt a little regr

    Holding up a thumb at Charlie, Julien exclaimed in approval, "You're right, my friend! That's far more exciting than having him jailed!"Just hearing that he would be sent to a kennel, Jimmy knew nothing would come of it—even if he didn't know the details, it was so obvious that Julien was thrilled by the very idea!Turning nervously toward Charlie, he was sobbing as he asked, "Mr. Wade…? What's this about a kennel…?"Julien chuckled coolly even before Charlie said a word. "A kennel is where you keep dogs, of course. Though there are literal dogs and metaphorical dogs, and you are the latter."Oh, don't worry. It's a really nice place where you get your own cage, and you'll be fed every day. You don't even have to work, so just sit tight and keep eating until the day you die."Jimmy's soul left his body in that instant.He was going to be locked in a cage?! That was way worse than being locked up and sent to jail! Where was the humanity around here?!Even as the thought struck h

    Matilda was actually caught off guard by Jimmy's pleas, and even Paul found it hard to watch.Turning to Charlie, he said, "Please, Mr. Wade—my uncle can be a little despicable, but he is my father's brother. Please, let him have a chance to turn over a new leaf, seeing that he's earnestly repenting."While Paul spoke with Charlie, Jimmy was still confused and wondered why Paul would plead his case with Charlie instead of Julien. If there was anyone Paul should ask, it was Yolden since he was Julien's friend. So, why would he ask some young man instead of Yolden?That was when Charlie asked in curiosity, "You want to let him off? After he tried to take away your parents' legacy?"Paul smiled awkwardly. "I mean, I know the guy. He made sure to travel all this way to make a scene because he had nothing legal that could help him claim Smith Group Corporate Law from us. Otherwise, he'd have already filed the lawsuit in the States. Sure, it's a dirty move, but that's basically a des

    As Julien finished, he realized something was wrong and turned toward Charlie before he knew it.Charlie held his gaze in turn, his expression quizzical and amused.Julien cleared his throat right then. "See, there are people who can order me around, but they have my utmost respect. However, a third-rate lawyer like you? Who do you think you are?"That was when Julien's butler called, and he reported respectfully as soon as the call was answered, "Sir, I've spoken with Nate Ellis, the owner of Ares LLC. He has since agreed to fire Jimmy Smith right away as well as disbar him nationwide."Julien asked, "Good. Anything else?""Well, Mr. Ellis also delivered some documents that can be used as evidence against Jimmy Smith, which he claims is enough for a lifetime sentence. If you deem it necessary, we can have it sent to the FBI.""Yes, let's go with that!" Julien replied, his tone satisfied. "And ask the director to handle it personally—I want this prick to never set foot stateside

    Jimmy was sweating profusely in fear, but he argued back before he knew it, "That's impossible! Everything you say is bullshit! Gaiman simply thought he had a fair chance of winning and didn't want to pay Ares that much, and I have no idea who he partnered with, and I'm certainly not involved. Don't you try to slander me!"Nate chuckled. "Come on, Jimmy. We're all adults here, so there are things we shouldn't have to be so direct about. Mills Gaiman and your old classmate met in private many times, not to mention the private conferences you three had in secret, discussing your overall strategy and decisive points. Just so you know, Gaiman recorded every conversation, and I have the tapes with me."Jimmy's heart was left pounding as he blurted, "B-Bullshit! That's impossible!""Grow up, Jimmy," Mr.Goodman chuckled. "Every partner in every law firm always strives to rise higher, so I'm going to need as much leverage as I can. Otherwise, I'm not about to let them advance any further, e

    Although the ringtone and vibration frequency were the ones Jimmy always used, this call somehow felt more urgent, leaving him exceedingly uneasy.When it abruptly stopped and left a missed call on his log, Nate Ellis soon sent a text: [Answer your damn phone this instant!]Just seeing the text left Jimmy feeling like his throat had gone dry, and as he gulped, it felt like his throat was being ripped, leaving him hurting.Still, he couldn't care less as his boss called again.Having seen the text, Jimmy didn't hesitate this time and promptly answered, watching Julien's smug face as he started tentatively, "Y-Yes, boss...?"Nate immediately yelled at him hysterically, "What the hell did you do?! Why did the Rothschilds call to complain about you?! And the complaint was from their heir apparent, at that! I worked hard for them and always toed the line for years, and I still haven't gotten a chance to meet the man, so how the fuck did you upset him?!"Jimmy's heart sank to rock bott

    Fuming, Jimmy snapped at Julien, "If you insist on playing it like that, I will call my boss, and you can talk to him yourself!"Julien chuckled. "That's unnecessary. I've never met him. He would never recognize my voice."Jimmy laughed and nodded despite himself. "Impressive—you can really come up with anything! You don't have his number because he's beneath you, you refuse to call him because he's beneath you, and when I say I'll call him for you, you say he won't recognize your voice. Well, how do you suppose we should sort this out? At least prove you're a Rothschild, or anyone could claim that they are—"Julien held up a hand to stop him. "Then, how about this? I'll ask my butler to talk to your boss."Jimmy laughed even more loudly as if it were the best joke ever. "Hahaha!!! Butler, you say?! You really know how to talk! Alright, I'll wait and see what your 'butler' can do… I mean, what you can do. We'll see whether my boss calls me!"Julien ignored him and whipped out his

    Naturally, Jimmy couldn't care less about Julien's suggestion, even looking at him pointedly from head to toe while smirking in contempt, "What, do you think I'd just do what any nutjob tells me to do just because they're claiming to be the Rothschilds' heir apparent?"Julien nodded, still smiling. "Good point, but don't worry—it's the same whether you call him or he calls you."Jimmy laughed. "I was offering you a way out, but you want to keep pressing your luck? Since you don't care to back off, let's see how you're going to finish this fight."Then, he shrugged while pointing at Yolden. "Well, it's the perfect chance to measure Matilda's husband, I guess."Based on what he saw of Yolden, there was no way he would buy Julien's claims, and thus labeled him an impostor in his mind.An ordinary lecturer in Aurous Hill, being friends with the Rothschilds' heir apparent? Not to mention that there had been plenty of fraudulent cases outside the States where the Rothschild name was use

    Jimmy was taken aback since he didn't recognize Julien at all, mainly because the Rothschilds had always kept out of the public eye.In fact, it was basically impossible to gather genuine information about the Rothschilds online, as it was a mix of press releases and gossip. Most online biographies would only be about the older generations or certain frivolous figures. Any information about key members like Steve would never be searchable online.Matilda was confused as well, not quite understanding who Julien was since he wasn't on the list of guests invited.Seeing that she was confused, Julien turned and smiled at Yolden, "So, Professor, shouldn't you introduce me to the bride?"Yolden finally remembered that and quickly nodded, "Sorry, it slipped my mind."Turning toward Matilda, he smiled, "Darling, this is Julien Rothschild… A friend of mine from the states…"Julien's full name left everyone within earshot gaping as the Rothschild name was way too famous across the globe.

    Seeing that Jimmy was getting a little nervous, Charlie smiled and assured him, "Please, you have nothing to worry about. No one's going to do anything to you, but if you feel threatened in any way, you can call the cops. The Oskian emergency hotline is 110, by the way."Jimmy was slightly relieved as he could see that Charlie really wasn't trying to make things awkward for him, and he straightened his collar as he said, "Actually, I didn't mean to cause trouble—I'm pleased that Matilda has found true love once more, and if we can be friends, I can set aside my claim and stay for the rest of this wedding, offering the newlyweds our best wishes as a representative of my family."Still, his expression showed contempt as he turned toward Yolden. "Also, I'm really curious and looking forward to seeing what connections Professor Hart might have that you say could be better than Bill.""You'll see soon enough," Charlie smiled and nodded.Jimmy remained skeptical and scoffed, "I really do
