v16 Chapter 14: Advice from an elite bureaucrat of the f

?

"Going to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to participate in foreign affairs training? Sakurako-chan, this is really incredible!"

Seeing Yuzi's surprise when she learned that she was officially selected for the economic and trade delegation to Ethiopia, Yingzi couldn't help but bow her head a little embarrassedly.

"This matter... I have to thank Mr. Kono for helping me. I never thought that I would have the opportunity to participate in the economic and trade delegation of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs!"

As Sakurako spoke, she stood up gratefully and bowed to Kono Sho, while Kono Shohei quickly stood up and said:

"Please don't mind, this matter is just a little effort! But I also got an interest-free loan of 10 million US dollars for you by the way, and I don't know if it will help you!"

"Ten million?"

"Dollar?"

"So much money!"

...

Hearing Shohei Kono talking about the loan... Lin Xiuyi and others present were stunned by the huge sum of money. You must know that if 10 million US dollars were converted into Japanese yen, it would be 1 billion yen. For ordinary office workers, it is simply a number in the sky. No wonder people are so shocked by the money.

"That... Mr. Kono, I have never handled so much money before!"

Hearing that Shohei Kono actually helped her get so many loans, Sakurako couldn't help but panic for a while. To be honest, Sakurako made a lot of money when she was running a club in Ginza before, but...she has never experienced the taste of holding 1 billion yen. Such a large loan, if she can't handle it properly, not only will it not improve Sakura no Sato's business ability, but it may even cause more trouble, but considering that Mr. Kono was originally kind. This kind of thing, Sakurako really doesn't know what to do now.

"I'm really sorry, originally... I just wanted to help you get a million-dollar interest-free loan, but Yasuda-senpai asked me to let me use up more of the loan amount, otherwise the Ministry of Finance will reduce the related loan amount next year. Budget, at that time... I really couldn't refuse, so... I made my own decisions to help you get it down. It seems... I caused you trouble!"

"Please don't say that, Mr. Kono, no matter what, I should thank you well!"

Although she was worried about the huge loan of up to 10 yen, Sakurako sincerely thanked Shohei Kono, but when everyone was worried about how to use the loan for Sakurako, she has been The exceptionally quiet Souji Kirihara suddenly opened his mouth and said:

"I said... Have you ever considered a question, if Sakurako really bought the forest and completely monopolized these ancient coffee varieties. In the future, if everyone gradually realizes the value of these coffee trees, What if you want to take the ownership of these coffee trees from Sakurako?"

"Eh...Is there such a thing? If Sakurako buys the place, she should sign a contract with the Ethiopian government!"

Seiichi Yusa replied to Souji Kirihara without hesitation.

"Childish! That is a third world country, and... it is also one of the least developed countries in the world. The influence of the Ethiopian government is not worth mentioning in the face of tribal forces, perhaps in Addis Abbe, the capital of Ethiopia. The situation is not too bad, but in a border area like Bench-Maji, which is close to South Sudan, if there is a dispute with the local people in terms of interests or other aspects, I am afraid even the Ethiopian government can’t do anything about it!”

As soon as Souji Kirihara said this, everyone present fell into deep worry again, even Kono Shohei, who was comforting Sakurako just now, could not help but fell silent.

"Haha, it won't make you all stumped for something like this!"

Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Kirihara Zongji laughed calmly, then he sat up straight, and then continued to say to everyone with a serious expression:

"It seems that everyone thinks Sakura no Sato's investment this time is a bit simple! Although it is also a business, but... in a country like Ethiopia, there are completely different rules of the game from Japan. If we don't do it in advance If you take precautions, it is very likely that the hard work and all efforts of the boss will be in vain..."

Hearing this warning from Souji Kirihara, Sakurako couldn't help but become worried, so she sincerely asked Souji Kirihara for advice:

"Mr. Kirihara, could it be... have you thought of a way to avoid these risks?"

"Hey... as expected of the elite bureaucrats of the former Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, does he really have a set! Mr. Kirihara!"

"Can you explain to us in detail what to do so that Miss Sakurako can complete this investment with confidence?"

...

Hearing everyone's gossip, Kirihara Zongji knew that he had stifled everyone's appetite, so he stopped playing dumb riddles with everyone, but raised his hand and stretched out a finger and said solemnly:

"If you want to ask my opinion, I think that the loan of 10 million US dollars may not be enough! Because... I think the real need for investment is not the forest in Ethiopia, but the proprietress you myself!"

"I... myself? Mr. Kirihara, what are you talking about!"

"It's you, only if you have enough prestige, can you keep those ancient coffee trees forever, and you can truly master this fantastic coffee in your own hands!"

"Wait a minute, why do I still don't understand what you mean? What do you mean by investment...what do you mean!"

Hearing Lin Xiuyi asking himself in doubt~lightnovelpub.net~ Tongyuan Zongji immediately turned around and explained to him:

"I'm going to spend most of that $10 million to build Madam Boss into an internationally known feminist and environmentalist, because only then can Madam Boss truly take these precious coffee resources into her own hands. You know the money Why do people like to portray themselves as philanthropists? Because a good reputation allows them to better manage their wealth. This principle is also the same for the investment in front of them. Only Miss Yingzi has it. With enough fame, she can be the real owner of these coffees."

After hearing this general explanation from Souji Kirihara, everyone seemed to understand a little bit of what the former bureaucrat of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry was up to.

"So... Mr. Kirihara, what are you going to tell me to do?"

After thinking for a while, Sakurako asked Kirihara Soji with some heartbeat:

"The investment of 10 million US dollars...Except for leaving enough money to buy land, I suggest you donate all the rest to the local environmental protection and women's rights protection agency in Ethiopia..."
