Chapter 1263, Chapter 1272: Don't be afraid, I won't cut you!
Shigeaki Yamakawa, from the event support company, naturally didn't have the luxury of being chauffeured around by a private jet. He took the Shinkansen to Ehime Prefecture, then chartered a cargo ship to bring the event materials to Jurassic Island.
Once we arrived at the port, someone helped us unload the cargo and then led us all the way to the resort hotel.
"Shanchuan-san!"
Naoki Nagayama, along with Kaneda Continent, welcomed the splendid mountains and rivers.
"You must have had a long journey!"
"Not at all, it's what I should do."
Yamakawa Shigemitsu humbly shook hands and exchanged pleasantries with Nagayama Naoki, then exaggeratedly said,
"This Jurassic Island is truly eye-opening! I remember most of the islands in the Seto Inland Sea are uninhabited."
"Yes, there used to be a small village on this island, but there was no electricity or running water, so the young people didn't come back, and there were no successors. They all moved away afterward."
Naoki Nagayama led Shigemitsu Yamakawa into the hotel, explaining as he went.
"That's when I bought the island, intending to turn it into a tourist attraction like Jurassic Park."
Yamakawa Shigekō smiled, his eyes darting around, but his mind was wandering.
How could such a large island be bought so easily? Even if the government wanted to expropriate the land, it would be very troublesome. However, I heard that Naoki Nagayama has yakuza connections; perhaps he directly hired thugs to persuade people to leave.
By the latter half of 62, the bubble economy was in full swing, with land and housing prices in major Japanese cities skyrocketing, making them easy prey for many organized crime groups.
Construction teams backed by NGOs use violence and intimidation to evict tenants from well-located properties or force original owners to sell their properties, then demolish them and rebuild new apartments to sell for profit.
Such behavior is not an isolated incident; it has become a characteristic of this noisy era.
"The party the day after tomorrow will be held at this hotel."
Naoki Nagayama introduced the hotel manager, Shinichiro Matsumura, to Shigemitsu Yamakawa.
"For any requests that require the hotel's cooperation, please contact Manager Shinichiro Matsumura."
"Hi!"
Yamakawa Shigeaki responded first, then greeted Matsumura Shinichiro.
"Nice to meet you. I am Shigeaki Yamakawa from the event support company. Please take good care of me."
"Nice to meet you. I am Shinichiro Matsumura, the temporary hotel manager of Jurassic Island Resort Hotel. Please feel free to ask if there is anything we can do for you."
"Alright, alright, you'll have time to talk later."
Naoki Nagayama interrupted their conversation and led Shigeaki Yamakawa to a garden near the beach:
"The official venue is here. By noon the day after tomorrow, everyone should be here, and then we can celebrate the birthday."
"Yes!" Yamakawa Shigeaki nodded. "We've brought the materials. We can start setting up the venue today."
"Yes, that would be perfect."
Naoki Nagayama patted Shigeaki Yamakawa on the shoulder.
"I'm counting on you again, Mr. Yamakawa!"
"It's my pleasure!"
The materials and staff brought by Yamakawa Shigekatsu are all in the back, so for now he can only look at the small garden and the beach not far away and give a brief description of the set design.
This time he brought balloons, fireworks, ribbons, banners, and other usual decorations, as well as various toys, dolls, and a sizable inflatable castle, which will surely make the place colorful and full of childlike fun on his birthday!
Naoki Nagayama was very satisfied after listening for a while, and said that everything should be prepared according to Shigeaki Yamakawa's plan. As for cakes, food and drinks, they would be left to the resort hotel's own team.
After arranging things for Shigeaki Yamakawa, Naoki Nagayama and Taichi Kaneda waited in the lobby.
"Naoki-san," Kaneda asked, somewhat surprised, "Are there any other people here today?"
"Of course, Hua Jiang's grandparents are coming today, along with her uncle's family."
Naoki Nagayama said as he flipped through the newspaper,
"Oh, right, and you've also met Brother Feng's family."
The private jet will first pick up Nagayama Kaede in Tokyo, and then go to the small airport in Shizuoka to pick up his parents.
"!!!"
Kaneda Continent was startled, and the image of Nagayama Kaede's burly figure flashed into his mind. That was a purely vicious man!
"Is Brother Fengfeng coming too?"
"Haha. What's wrong? Kinda, are you afraid of Brother Kaede?"
Naoki Nagayama looked up from behind the newspaper and teased,
"Don't worry, Brother Feng is married now and has a lovely daughter. He's not like he used to be, always hitting people."
In fact, since getting married and having a daughter, the disbandment of the Nagayama Group, and the passing of his grandfather at the beginning of the year, Nagayama Kaede has become more and more composed. Now he manages more than a dozen KTV branches and his presence is becoming increasingly imposing.
If you stand next to Naoki Nagayama now, people will definitely think that Kaede Nagayama is the real boss, while Naoki Nagayama is the kind of young talent.
"..." Jin Tian Continent swallowed hard. "Has Brother Feng ever hit anyone before?"
"Of course, during the years he was involved in gangs, beating people up and even stabbing people were commonplace for him. Oh, right, when he first found out you were dating Tsuruko, Brother Feng said that if you let Tsuruko down, he would make you commit seppuku in a heartbeat."
"."
Kaneda Tairiku's face turned slightly pale. Why hadn't Tsuruko told him about these things?
You can't really blame Tsuruko. What girl would tell her boyfriend that her cousin had once attacked someone with a knife?
"Alright, alright."
Naoki Nagayama stopped teasing him.
"Relax, you've already met the parents, and they've accepted you!"
"So don't be afraid! He won't cut you!"
"Hehehe"
Kaneda Taira gave a forced smile, nodded silently, and decided that he must hide well that night.
In the Shuyu Building in Tokyo, Yoshimura Hirotomo was holding a meeting with mid-level managers in the conference room.
Yoshimura Daitomo lowered his head and flipped through the work plan for a while, confirming that there were no particularly urgent matters requiring his signature in the next three days, before speaking:
"Shuichi-san and I are going on a business trip together tomorrow or the day after. We'll be back in three days. If you need anything, you can call us via satellite phone."
"Hi!"
Masami Inada and Masataka Komori, along with other key members, nodded in agreement. In fact, they all knew that these two were going to attend the Nagayama family's birthday party.
"Otomo-san, we'll arrange the work for these three days!"
"Okay, I'll leave it to you all. Go ahead and get busy!"
After everyone else had left, Masami Inada asked:
"Otomo-san, why aren't you in Tokyo for your birthday celebration this time?"
"If Naoki-san doesn't want to make a big scene in Tokyo, many people will definitely get wind of it. And some people will have no choice but to invite him."
Yoshimura Otomo spoke a few more words to his trusted confidant.
"He didn't actually want to turn Xia Hua's birthday into a social gathering. So this time, only relatives and a few close friends were there."
In fact, as a person's status and wealth continue to rise, their family will attract attention from many people, in addition to themselves.
Just like Yoshimura Otomo, not to mention the welcoming and sending off of guests during festivals.
These days, his birthday, as well as his wife's and son's birthdays, are filled with gifts and well wishes. It's impossible to celebrate quietly.
After all, he frequently needs to interact with people in the entertainment and business circles, and maintaining these relationships is indispensable.
"That's why we chose the Seto Inland Sea this time~"
Masamin Inada sighed,
"Naoki-san is really thoughtful~"
"It's really just about being spontaneous!"
Yoshimura Hirotomo filed the final documents and then left the meeting room.
"But since he has the ability, it doesn't matter!"
Masami Inada followed Otomo Yoshimura toward the top-floor office:
"Otomo-san, I heard that a private jet was used for transportation this time?"
"Yeah, I've wanted to ride in Naoki-san's precious ride for ages! I heard it's incredibly luxurious."
As the two were chatting, they ran into Shuichi Itō, who happened to be looking for Yoshimura Ōtomo. Yoshimura Ōtomo then gestured for Inada Masaharu to go ahead and attend to his business.
"Otomo-san, is everything arranged?"
"Of course, the film division has made arrangements as well, right?"
“Of course.” Shuichi Itō shrugged as he walked into the office. “The film department doesn’t need much scheduling either. Currently, only the animation department has projects, and the scriptwriting center is working on something. Everything else is proceeding as planned. We’re just in a lull.”
In fact, Shuichi Itō was more concerned about the work arrangements of the Film Association. Now was the time when the most membership applications were being submitted, so he had to delegate the review work to other standing committee members.
"Yes, 'Long Vacation' has finished airing too."
The two sat on the sofa and chatted idly:
"When do we arrive at the airport with Jiayi tomorrow?"
"Around eleven o'clock, no rush," Itō Shuichi said with a smile. "This time it's a private jet, no time restrictions."
"Haha, when are you going to buy one too!"
"That would take several more years to save up~"
Actually, Osamu Itō could afford a private jet if he really squeezed his money, but that would drain his family's cash flow, so it wasn't necessary.
However, a few years later, according to the information that Naoki Nagayama had given them, their assets in the stock market would continue to rise, and their net worth would definitely multiply several times!
As they talked, the conversation turned to recent events.
"Didn't Otomo-san's Tokyo Sports newspaper contact you?"
"The shareholders behind it have indeed found a middleman to persuade them, since a month's worth of lost newspaper sales would be significant."
Yoshimura Otomo replied that simply having Shizuka Kudo appear on an announcement was enough to attract a huge number of fans.
"However, since I've already made the decision, I haven't canceled it."
"Haha, their faces must be really ugly, they'll probably hate the tree friends, right?"
"This is necessary!" Yoshimura Ōtomo said solemnly. "As Instructor Dongfang once said, 'A single punch can prevent a hundred more.'"
Shizuoka, a small airport near Shimizu City.
The lively little wild grass really wanted to play in the sand next to it, but it was held back firmly by its grandmother, Nanako Nagayama.
"Weeds. The plane will be landing soon, don't run around here! It's dangerous!"
"Auntie, we've been waiting for a long time."
Yongshan Wild Grass is already a lively little boy, but he can't stand staying in one place and waiting.
"We'll be able to take the plane soon. We can also visit my cousin Lily and Xia Hua!"
Nanako Nagayama gently comforted her.
"So, how about we wait a little longer?"
"Oh~~"
Yongshan Yecao calmed down when she heard that she was going to take a plane and that her little cousin was involved.
Ken Nagayama, who had been silent all along, finally gently patted his grandson's head.
Four or five minutes later, a white plane circled and landed. After the plane came to a stop, the staff at the small airport quickly pushed the elevator over.
The aircraft door opened, and the maintenance crew came out and briefly looked around:
"You must be Mr. Ken Nagayama and Ms. Nanako. Please board the plane; we will be flying to the Seto Inland Sea shortly."
"Arigado~"
Nanako Nagayama led the little wild grass through the elevator stairs into the cabin, followed by Ken Nagayama carrying a small suitcase.
Inside the spacious cabin, the three of them soon met the Nagayama family, who had boarded the plane earlier.
"Uncle Ken, Aunt Nanako."
Nagayama Kaede stood up and greeted her uncle and aunt, then noticed the little wild grass curiously observing them.
"Isn't this Little Wild Grass?! Do you remember Uncle Fengtang?"
Uncle Feng
The little guy hadn't forgotten, but he was a little shy.
After helping the group take their luggage and set it down, Nagayama Kaede led them to their seats before asking:
"Where's Aoki? And where's the mother of the weeds?"
"Xiangjia's due date is next week, and she has checked into the hospital."
Nanako Nagayama explained,
"Aoki, of course, cannot do without it either."
"We've entrusted the little weed to your care; we can take it to Naoki's place for a bit of fun."
"That's it~"
Aoki Nagayama's wife, Kika, was already showing signs of pregnancy in February. After calculating the dates, it turned out she was due to give birth, so she simply stayed in the hospital to prepare for delivery.
"Haha, the Yongshan family will soon have another member!"
Hearing the news that Xiangjia was about to give birth, Yongshan Feng was also very happy. After all, the Yongshan family was dwindling in number; his generation only had three male heirs, and the next generation would only have one boy, Yecao. Compared to those larger families, their numbers were far too few.
Meanwhile, Little Wild Grass had run to Yongshan Xinhai's side and kept looking at Little Lily, who was sleeping with her pacifier in her mouth.
"This is your cousin, Little Lily, she's only a little over six months old," Xin Hai said to Xiao Ye Cao with a smile. "She's two years younger than you!"
Can she talk?
"They haven't even learned to call me 'Dad' or 'Mom' yet!"
"Is that so?" Little Wild Grass lay on the baby basket, examining her closely. "Will she recognize me?"
"That probably won't work either, since Little Lily only recognizes her father and mother now."
Seeing that the little girl, Wild Grass, was curious and wanted to touch her, Nanako Nagayama quickly took Wild Grass away from the baby basket.
"Weed, if you make Little Lily cry, we'll be in trouble for the rest of the journey!"
"It's fine"
Nagayama Kaede also sat down.
"I thought my baby would cry on the plane, but my little Lily fell asleep right away. She didn't even cry during landing. She's definitely my baby, she's so healthy!"
"."
Yongshan Xinhai gently punched her husband and explained with a smile.
"Perhaps it's because Sayuri is at a stage where she needs a lot of sleep."
"That's true, a baby over six months old needs to sleep many times a day."
Nanako Nagayama smiled and echoed her sentiment, creating an exceptionally harmonious atmosphere in the cabin.
A short while later, the captain informed everyone that the plane was about to take off and asked them to fasten their seatbelts.
With a slight feeling of weightlessness, the plane took off again.
As the blue sky and white clouds continued to drift away, more than an hour later, the azure sea appeared outside the porthole.
This time, Naoki Nagayama and Taichi Kaneda came to the airport on Jurassic Island to greet him.
Watching the Gulfstream plane slowly land, slow down, and come to a stop, Naoki Nagayama quickly went to the side of the plane with the airport staff.
The cabin door slowly opened, and the captain came out first, greeted Naoki Nagayama, and then the passengers came in.
The first to step down was Nagayama Kaede, leading a portable baby basket, but the baby inside was crying loudly.
"Brother Feng"
Naoki Nagayama walked forward with some concern and looked into the baby basket.
"Is Lily alright?"
"I just woke up when we landed and started crying."
Nagayama Kaede said.
"So I took her out first."
Following closely behind, Yongshan Xinhai didn't have time to say much either. He reached out and took Xiaobaihe from the baby basket into his arms and began to comfort her.
"It could be the feeling of weightlessness or changes in air pressure..."
Naoki Nagayama looked Sayuri up and down, and seeing that she stopped crying after a few sobs, he felt relieved.
Then I saw the mother, Nanako, leading the little wild grass down the gangway, and the last one to come out was the father, Ken Nagayama, carrying a bag.
"Mother. Father"
Naoki Nagayama greeted the two first, then looked down at the little wild grass.
"Isn't this little wild grass? Do you remember Uncle Naoki?!"
"Haha"
Nanako, the mother, laughed.
"Naoki, you and Kaede greet each other in the same way!"
"what?"
Naoki Nagayama was a little confused, but Konosashi responded with a smile.
"Of course I remember! Uncle Naoki gave me so many toys!"
Hahaha~
The others laughed too; this little guy only remembered Naoki Nagayama because of the toys.
"Alright, Mother, Father, and Brother Feng, please get in the car first. We'll go to the hotel to settle in."
Naoki Nagayama gestured for everyone to leave first.
"Akina, Tsuruko, and Natsuka are all over there."
Then he gestured to Kaneda Continent:
"Kinda, take this bag now!"
"Ah-hai!"
Kaneda Taira then stepped forward and said to his father, Nagayama Ken:
"Uncle Yongshan, let me take the bag!"
".Um!"
Ken Nagayama gave Taichi Kaneda a serious once-over before handing him the bag.
Ken Nagayama always found this person who was stealing his daughter's thunder a bit of an eyesore, but unfortunately, his own daughter liked him.
Forget it, I'm not going to watch it!
Ken Nagayama quickly walked forward and took the other hand of the little wild grass.
Nanako Nagayama could only walk further ahead and comfort Sayuri together with Kokoro.
"."
Kaneda Taira was quite helpless, but still followed along strangely.
"Haha~"
Having witnessed this scene, Nagayama Kaede playfully bumped into Nagayama Naoki.
"Naoki, doesn't this look just like when you went to meet your future in-laws?"
"."
Looking at the timid and hesitant Kaneda Taira, Naoki Nagayama shook his head.
When he met Akina's parents, he was very confident. After all, his wealth and status far exceeded those of the Nakamori family.
However, the Yue family, which Jin Tian Continent is currently facing, is quite powerful, putting considerable pressure on this future son-in-law.
