Chapter 1433 Credit Card

"What is credit? Our Taisho Insurance Company is credit."

"You are such a useless guy. How come you have been in Tokyo for so long and don't even have a credit card!"

"Now is the era of making money with other people's money! You are in the financial industry, but you don't even have a credit card. This is not right. You must learn to be smarter in the future, otherwise how can you become a branch manager. That's your goal, right? A boss like you will be laughed at by your subordinates..."

After helping Yujiro Sakai apply for a credit card from the bank, Yasuo Nagase regarded himself as Yujiro Sakai's benefactor, and the two found a cafe near the bank to rest.

Yasuo Nagase taught the bumpkin in his eyes without any scruples, and did not care about Yujiro Sakai's face at all.

However, Yujiro Sakai didn't mind this at all, and just thanked him gratefully.

Especially when he heard Yasuo Nagase mention the word "branch manager", he smiled even more and tried to please him deliberately.

He thought that his efforts at work had been seen and remembered by the upper management.

What Nagase Yasuo revealed was the tacit approval of his promotion by his superiors.

But how could he know that his thoughts had long been grasped by "Taisho Yasuo" such as Nagase Yasuo and Ninomiya Hideo.

Everyone of those people knew that as long as they mentioned the word "branch chief", Zuo Haiyoujiro, who dreamed of promotion, would become a clown who could be teased at will.

Now Nagase Yasuo said this, in fact, he was deliberately teasing Zuo Haiyoujiro with his weakness.

It was just throwing a bone to see how the dog wagged its tail.

The pitiful thing was that Zuo Haiyoujiro's heart had been completely blinded by utilitarianism, and he didn't realize how ridiculous and humble his attitude was.

Look, after eating snacks in a high-end cafe, under the guidance of Nagase Yasuo, Zuo Haiyoujiro paid the bill with a credit card.

He looked at the bill of more than 8,000 yen for a pot of coffee, some muffins and cakes. He just felt the pain, and he was brainwashed by Nagase Yasuo again.

"See, how convenient it is to have a credit card. And your JCB card has a limit of 2 million yen, and there are many special benefits. You can enjoy the highest courtesy and discounts in many high-end restaurants and cooperating merchants. This time, we enjoyed a 10% discount. In the future, you can also bring your own customers to entertain, which will make it easier for customers to have a sense of trust. Especially if girls see your handsome and heroic figure swiping the card, they will definitely be moved. The girl at the cashier just now looked at you for a long time. It's a pity that you got married so early, otherwise it would be easy to pick up girls. To be honest, do you regret it now..."

Just like this, Nagase Yasuo's words once again hit the itch of Zuo Haiyoujiro, and made his unpleasant pain numb.

So he selectively ignored the other party's bad behavior of using him as a wallet.

And he didn't realize that the card in his hand was actually a trap in the financial industry.

In addition to the convenience of paying bills, he would be more likely to develop a desire to consume and misjudge his ability to make money. Not only would it be more difficult to reverse the financial deficit, but it would be easier to overdraw the future.

However, as far as the current situation is concerned, and because he still has to pay the interest on the debt today and doesn't want others to know, Zuo Haiyoujiro decided to stop with Nagase and didn't accept the other party's invitation to play mahjong with this guy.

Otherwise, his financial loss today would definitely increase from 8,000 yen to at least tens of thousands of yen. From this perspective, this credit card is also somewhat useful, at least it has avoided a little bad luck for him.

"I have something important to do." After the two walked out of the store, Zuo Haiyoujiro explained with a lie, "An important customer wants to discuss the insurance policy."

"Really? That's a pity." Nagase Yasuo shrugged and had to give up.

But before leaving, Nagase Yasuo gave one last reminder, "Yujiro, don't forget what I asked you to do."

"Of course, I will tell Rinko, she is not young anymore, it's time for her to consider marriage. It would be very prestigious to be able to associate with an elite like you at Keio University." Sakai Yujiro agreed with a smile.

"Oh, you can't say that. Isn't it because Xiu Nan is too arrogant that Miss Rinko is unhappy? Let me put it this way, I am different from that guy. He is an egomaniac. I don't have the same bad habits as him. So, please make it clear to Miss Rinko that although I graduated from Keio University, I have always participated in club activities in the art club. Miss Rinko and I have common topics in art. I have this confidence, so please ask her to do me a favor and meet me."

"Of course, I will try my best. It would be great if we can become relatives."

"Haha, you guy, you really want to become relatives with me. In this case, I will wait for your good news. Goodbye."

In this way, the two people finally said goodbye and walked in different directions.

However, after leaving, the originally relaxed Sakai Yujiro quickly changed his face.

Not only did he look sad, but his legs were as heavy as if they were wrapped in cement as he walked towards the station.

It was not for any other reason, but mainly because Yasuo Nagase had a crush on his wife's sister, and asking him to be the introducer was not an easy task.

Last time, he tried his best to match Ninomiya Hideo and Rinko because Minister Ninomiya liked Rinko, but he didn't get the favor.

Actually, both sides were very unhappy.

Ninomiya Hideo disliked Rinko's cold temperament, inactive, not like a woman.

Rinko also disliked Ninomiya Hideo for not knowing how to respect women, and empty-headed, just a playboy who would spend money, not worth spending time to contact.

In the end, he was in a difficult position, and he didn't even get the Minister Ninomiya he wanted to curry favor with.

The other party was very disappointed. Although he would not blame him for it, the side effects of his incompetence would probably take time to eliminate.

The key point is that since that wedding banquet, Rinko seemed to have a prejudice because of Ninomiya Hideo and Nagase Yasuo's blunt words to Ning Weimin, and she no longer wanted to contact people like them and disliked them very much.

In this case, if he helped Nagase Yasuo to match Rinko, he would probably be regarded as an enemy by this sister-in-law.

Even his wife, Miyoko, might misunderstand and think that he cannot tolerate his wife's sister living with him, and she would like Rinko to marry and move out of the house.

To be honest, he really didn't want to agree to Nagase Yasuo's request, because the success rate was too low.

Nagase Yasuo just felt good about himself. In fact, he was not as good as Ninomiya Hideo. His appearance alone could not meet Rinko's standards.

But Nagase Yasuo's uncle was the general manager of Taisho Insurance, and his position was higher than that of Minister Ninomiya.

He had already made Minister Ninomiya unhappy, so how could he dare to refuse again?

Moreover, if he wanted to be promoted to branch manager, he had to get a high-level thigh in Taisho Insurance.

So it was difficult. It was really difficult to handle this matter without ruining the pot.

There was no way, it seemed that he had to beg his wife for help.

He only hoped that Miyoko could understand his difficulties and persuade his sister-in-law for him.

In fact, it didn't matter. As long as Rinko was willing to perfunctory and attend a few formal dates, it would be fine.

At that time, I can say that it is not suitable and I have no feelings. This will also give me an explanation, and that guy Nagase Yasuo should not pester me.

But if I do this, I may be complained by my wife again, and I will feel more and more guilty in front of Miyoko...

Unconsciously, I walked to the station with a lot of thoughts in my heart.

But arriving at the destination did not make Sakai Yujiro feel relieved. Instead, the countless people waiting in line in front of the station increased his boredom.

This place was not originally a downtown area, but most people were free on weekends, making the area with only one shopping mall, two or three supermarkets, and four or five restaurants crowded.

In comparison, it makes the people on the road who take taxis and drive their own cars pass by here so leisurely and comfortable.

Especially at this time, a red Honda CIVIC sedan drove by, and the buzzing disco music in the car was turned on loudly.

The young man driving the car, wearing a colorful sweater and a denim jacket, looked like a college student who was going to date a girl.

This made Zuo Haiyoujilang, who was standing in the cold wind, feel a little unbalanced. He couldn't help but grit his teeth, and cursed fiercely in his heart while watching the car driving away in anger.

"Asshole! What are you showing off! If I see your car on the roadside one day, I will definitely smash your car window and scratch your car! Let's see what you will do then!"

He didn't realize that his jealousy was shameful and his thoughts were wrong. He just thought that this world and this society were extremely unfair to him.

Originally, he worked much harder than others, and he had never been lazy. He had suffered too much for his life. He finally came to Tokyo from the village. He was the only one from their hometown who came here.

But why did he still live such a poor life after working so hard until now, and never breathed the air of ease and freedom, and enjoyed the pleasure of spending money lavishly?

But now those students have already enjoyed a happy life in advance. A few days ago, there was a report in the newspaper reflecting that Japanese college students are experiencing a rapid rise in living standards.

College girls almost always express their consumption desires honestly.

"This Chanel was bought by my father this year. What I want now is my own Mercedes-Benz SL, and I also want a Tiffany OPEN HEART necklace worth more than 200,000 yen, and a Cartier TRINITY ring worth about 150,000 yen. I want too many things, which is really annoying. However, if I grit my teeth and want to buy them, I can still afford them. In addition, my hobby is riding horses."

Listen, when did students become so rich.

This is neither made up nor joking, but the real present, which is the common idea of ​​almost all college girls now.

Boys prefer to buy cars, and it is even said that boys cannot have girlfriends without a car.

There is a rumor that the "superiority" between college girls and high school girls is determined by the car brands that line up to greet them after school.

There was also a magazine report that someone at a university in Chiba drove a pink Toyota SOARER to and from school.

But he never had his own car, not even a second-hand car.

Why!

Why can these college students enjoy such things so early? Is this fair?

There must be something wrong, a social problem.

Otherwise it shouldn't be like this.

Even if it's like what Yasuo Nagase said, that smart people don't pay cash, but pay "future reputation", there shouldn't be such a big gap.

At this time, Zuo Haiyoujiro saw several part-time workers coming to the station, bowing one by one to distribute flyers to the people waiting for the train.

Because there was also a small bag of tissues attached, Zuo Haiyoujiro didn't refuse.

He took the flyer and saw that it was a GG of a real estate development project, located in Sumida District, Tokyo, not far from his residence, but the price was as high as 3.69 million yen per square meter.

This made Zuo Haiyoujiro feel a lot more comfortable. After all, he bought his own house early, and the house price alone increased by 50%. This can be regarded as catching up with the express train of the times and sharing the dividends of the times.

However, this happy mood did not last long, and was defeated by the conversation between an old couple next to him.

"This house looks nice. Should we go take a look tomorrow? If it's suitable, we can buy one or two in full."

"It's so expensive. An apartment like this costs about 30 million yen. What are you going to do with all that money?"

"Of course, I'll keep it for appreciation. It's 30 million yen now, and it will soon be higher. This is called land capitalism."

"How can you be so sure? What if the price doesn't go up again?"

"It's impossible. Just look at how many young people desperately take out loans to buy houses. Young people need to start a family and start a career. At least everyone needs a house. We don't have to pay back the loan. The worst thing we can do is rent out the house and collect rent. In the future, Xu Guang's monthly rent is enough for us to travel around the world, isn't that good? "

"That's true, but young people nowadays are really pitiful. For such a house, you may have to spend half your life."

"That's right, we old people are more comfortable. It's much easier to buy a house with our own savings. Old woman, don't look at those office workers who are all dressed up, but if you ask them to take out cash, maybe millions of yen will be difficult for them. In addition to taking out loans, they have no other way. And we, at least, won't let the bank suck our blood..."

I can't live like this, this life is really unbearable.

How come everyone lives more freely than me, college students are carefree and squander their youth.

And the elderly are also enjoying the dividends brought to them by time.

I am the only one, as if I am living in the cracks of time.

Even selling stocks is so unlucky, it only goes up a little bit, not even enough to pay the interest to the loan company, and I need to use credit cards to advance payment.

My life is too miserable, why is it like this?

And that Ning Weimin, does he no longer consider me a friend?

Is it because of that thing at the wedding?

It must be like this, otherwise why didn't he ask me to buy insurance for his new store?

Damn, this is too stingy, I have already apologized, why can't you understand my difficulties!

I really need performance, why do you treat me like this?

Facing the hustle and bustle of traffic and all kinds of people, Zuo Haiyoujilang's mental state suddenly became unbalanced.

When he looked up at the blue sky, he just felt like crying, and his mood was a little sad and about to collapse.

He really felt confused, puzzled, and wronged.

If only getting a promotion could be like spending with a credit card, there would be a way to overdraw in advance.

As long as he could be rescued from such a miserable situation immediately, he would not care about paying some interest for it...
