From a small commoner, he was able to join the Mitsui family to help the Mitsui family revitalize their family business. Starting from a low level, he helped the Mitsui family become one of the top three conglomerates in Japan, and at the same time, he was able to successfully usurp the Mitsui family's wealth.
industry, becoming one of the kings in Japan's economic circle.
It can be said that the life of Tokugawa Naomasa is legendary. He single-handedly founded the vast Tokugawa family. In this life, he defeated countless enemies and competitors, just like an emperor who conquered the east and west.
, making the territory in his hands continue to expand.
However, like all strong men, their biggest enemy is not other people, but time.
Even though it was Naomasa Tokugawa who created the legend, he could not compete with the passing of time. Even though he was still very ambitious, his body could no longer bear such ambition, and it could no longer support his expeditions here and there like in the past.
But Tokugawa Naomasa was unwilling to give in, especially after having a peerless beauty like Nanami Kaoru, his male ambition and desire not only did not fade with age, but became more intense.
When he was a child, Naomasa Tokugawa heard the legend of the imperial seal from the old fisherman who adopted him. It was also at that time that he learned that the old fisherman who adopted him was actually a tomb robber. After entering a very important place in Chinese history
After the tomb of a famous big shot, a map of the underground cave where the jade seal passed down from the country was hidden was discovered.
It was also because the common man was not guilty of the crime, so after the tomb robber got the map of the underground cave, his accomplices and buyers all wanted to get rid of him in order to get the map. After finally escaping from the siege, this
The tomb robber just ran to Japan and did not dare to show his face. He used his identity as an old fisherman as a cover until the day he died.
Before he passed away, he gave the map to Naomasa Tokugawa as a relic, and also told Naomasa Tokugawa the secret that the imperial seal contains the power to rejuvenate people and restore youth. Because this tomb robber's
Naomasa Tokugawa was convinced that the Imperial Seal still existed in the world, but he did not know its specific location. When he was young, he decided in his heart that if he had the opportunity in the future, he would find this unique treasure.
Later, Tokugawa Naomasa, who was caught up in various battles, almost forgot about this matter, until he, who was so ambitious and overcoming obstacles, finally realized that he was getting old and could no longer fight as bravely and fiercely as before.
So, gradually, the secret of the Imperial Seal buried deep in his heart emerged again, and Naomasa Tokugawa's desire for it was so strong. He immediately sent people to find the whereabouts of the Imperial Seal, only to find that
However, the map in his hand was only a specific structural diagram of the underground cave. As for where the underground cave was, it was not clear whether it was on land or in the sea.
After years of searching, Tokugawa Naomasa also determined that the Imperial Seal was hidden in the South China Sea.
After decades of searching, the Imperial Seal could not be found. Finally, an earthquake revealed the unknown island in the South China Sea. Tokugawa Naomasa had a tentative attitude and sent Tojo Shunyi.
They went to look for him, but Tojo Shunyi never returned and was buried directly on the island.
Now, although it was through the hands of an outsider, Tokugawa Naomasa finally found the jade seal that only existed in history, legend, and only in his own heart in the past, and successfully gained the power inside, restoring his youthfulness.
.
Although his body can only be restored to a state equivalent to that of a fifty-year-old, it is much better than the previous situation where he was old and waiting to die. Moreover, his legs, which had been paralyzed for many years, have also recovered. The most important thing is that
The abilities of a man were also restored.
Feeling the abundant energy in his body, Tokugawa Naomasa was filled with joy and excitement, and couldn't help but raise his head and laugh three times.
He was seen holding the crystal clear jade seal of the country in both hands, and said to himself: "The legend is true. This jade seal of the country can only be owned by those who are destined to it, and only those who are destined to it can possess it."
Get the magical power here."
Seeing Tokugawa Naomasa who had regained his glory, Zhou Hao couldn't help but be impressed. Although Tokugawa Naomasa was not familiar with martial arts, his aura that had been tempered by decades of struggle and storms was not something ordinary people could achieve.
owned.
Of course, the "aura" of Naomasa Tokugawa, the superior man, could only give Zhou Hao a momentary shock. Zhou Hao quickly regained his composure and sneered at Naomasa Tokugawa: "Mr. Tokugawa, no matter what
If the jade seal passed down to the country only belongs to the person to whom it is destined, you should return it to me first."
Tokugawa Naomasa frowned, and his slightly narrowed eyes showed a sharp light, and said in a deep voice: "I will also give you the shares of Toyota. Can you give me this national jade seal?"
Zhou Hao's face changed slightly, but he sneered fiercely in his heart, because before he came, he and Nanami Kaoru had guessed that once Tokugawa Naomasa regained his youth, he would never be willing to return the imperial seal like this. Zhou Hao
If Hao is in charge, Tokugawa Naomasa is unlikely to seize the Imperial Seal by force, so the most likely possibility is to use the Tokugawa family's property in exchange.
"I can give you the Imperial Seal, but I'm afraid Toyota alone is not enough." Zhou Hao pretended to be thoughtful and said: "Let's do this, plus Nippon Steel and Mitsui Bank's 10% shares."
The muscles on Tokugawa Naomasa's face twitched slightly, because "Nippon Steel" is a large group that is not inferior to "Toyota Motors", and Mitsui Bank has 10% of the shares. If they are all given to Nanami Kaoru, then she will
He immediately owned more than 60% of the assets of the Tokugawa family and became the second largest shareholder of Mitsui Banking Corporation after Naomasa Tokugawa.
After giving 30% to Nanami Kaoru of the 70% of Mitsui Bank shares that he originally owned, Tokugawa Naomasa was left with only 40%. Although Nanami Kaoru could not give 30% of the Mitsui Bank shares on the market.
The bank's circulating shares are under control, but the shares in hand do not reach 50%, and it cannot have absolute control over Mitsui Banking Corporation. This is very dangerous for Naomasa Tokugawa.
At this time, Zhou Hao laughed and said: "Naomasa Tokugawa, don't think that I can't guess what you are thinking. You plan to use the Imperial Seal to restore your youth again when you age again, right? Hehe hehe...
…This is like opening a cheating device for you. It’s up to you to decide whether it’s worth it for you to exchange those shares.”
Tokugawa Naomasa's expression changed, and it was obvious that Zhou Hao had spoken his mind.
He lowered his head and thought quietly, "Toyota Motor", "Nippon Steel" plus 10% of the shares of Mitsui Banking Corporation, if these were all converted into money, it would be 700 to 800 billion US dollars.
If you add in the Ishikawajima Heavy Industries, Toshiba Electric, Sony and another 20% of Mitsui Bank shares that Nanami Kaoru already controls, then the total assets she controls will reach more than one trillion US dollars. This is really true
It's an astronomical number.
Looking at Zhou Hao inadvertently, Tokugawa Naomasa couldn't help but think: Now, if we can get rid of the man in front of him, we can save the cost of 700 to 800 billion US dollars!
"Naomasa Tokugawa, are you thinking that you can save this money by getting rid of me?" Zhou Hao suddenly came with a sarcastic laugh: "You can give it a try, if you can
If you snatch the Imperial Seal from my hands, I will die in your hands without any regrets."
Tokugawa Naomasa's heart tightened, and he secretly thought that this guy had such a sensitive sense of touch that he could detect his own plans. However, the fact that he could say this meant that he was not afraid of being hard on himself. Moreover, once he was hard on himself, if he failed, he would not only grab the
If he didn't pass on the imperial seal, he would most likely kill him in anger, which would be more of a loss than a gain.
So Tokugawa Naomasa immediately suppressed this tempting thought and showed a gentle smile on his face: "You are kidding, what we respect is fair trade, how can we force ourselves so easily?"
When Zhou Hao heard this, he just sneered and said nothing, because the words of an old fox like Tokugawa Naomasa are less trustworthy than that of a street shrew. Zhou Hao clasped his hands and smiled and said: "Then make a decision quickly. If you are unwilling, just
Immediately return the imperial seal
Give it to me. Also, since you are now young again, please keep your previous promise and transfer the 20% shares of Mitsui Banking Corporation to my sister's name. Otherwise, hum! I'm sorry for that
Those who repent will not be merciful!"
Tokugawa Naomasa nodded and said: "Okay, I will use Nippon Steel, Toyota and 10% of Mitsui Bank's shares in exchange for this national jade seal. But, can you represent Nanami Kaoru?"
"Of course." Zhou Hao said with a smile: "I have this national jade seal in my hand. Do you think I can represent my sister?"
"There is a question I have wanted to ask you for a long time." Tokugawa Naomasa's sharp eyes were directed at Zhou Hao: "You call Nanami Kaoru 'sister', but I have been with Nanami Kaoru for so many years, and why have we never been together?"
Did you hear her say that she has a younger brother?"
"Huh huh huh..." Zhou Hao laughed and said: "I was adopted by my sister when I was seven years old, and my sister has never let you know about my existence, just to guard against you Tokugawa family members, so
, of course you didn’t know me before this.”
"Hahahahaha..." Tokugawa Naomasa burst into laughter.
Zhou Hao frowned: "Why are you laughing?"
Tokugawa Naomasa laughed and said: "I'm laughing. When I first met Nanami Kaoru, I had someone thoroughly investigate her. Before she met me, she almost couldn't afford to raise her. How could she raise another one?"
