Chapter 3 – Episode 1. Funeral
In the middle of performing tsuya, his grandfather, Taira Danzo, called him and he went to his study. What’s going on? Do you have anything else to do with me?
“It is the only legacy your father Saburo left behind.”
What Taira Danzo held out were several documents. After reading it roughly, it seems like they are giving me some kind of stock… You said earlier that you didn’t have anything left, but it looks like you still have a little bit left.
“These are 1 percent shares each of Tyra Bio and Tyra Robotics. Although our Tyra Group’s governance structure is complex, Tyra Bio and Tyra Robotics control most of its affiliates. “It means you now have a 1 percent stake in these two companies.”
And… How much will this cost? If you sell 1%, wouldn’t you be able to make a living for the rest of your life?
“I said earlier that Saburo left nothing behind, right? It’s as if these stocks don’t even exist. If you want to survive, you have to keep holding these stocks. You can’t cash it out or sell it to one of your uncles. Think of it as your lifeline and hold on to it tightly. “Try to keep that in mind.”
Yes, this is a Megacorp world without blood or tears. It was a world in which people had to kill their brothers, children, and parents to become the president of a company. According to what my grandfather said, does this mean that I am safe as long as I own this stock? Actually, if I sell it to one person, there is no way the other one will leave me alone. Even if you sell half and half, you will ask yourself why you didn’t sell all the stocks, and you can only keep what Grandpa Danzo said.
“Then, grandpa, how much Tyra bio and robotics do you have to have to have Tyra Group?”
“Conflict!”
My question suddenly goes! Tyra Danzo gets angry and makes noise. Gal! This is my first time seeing someone use this in real life. I only saw it in Chimpanzee Drip.
“Your skills are beyond me. It’s just a stock that my blood is giving me to keep from dying, so you just work hard at your job. Do you understand?”
Of course, what Grandpa said was true 100 times. Just a young kid who has just graduated from high school and has nothing. Since that was me, the question itself could have been seen as excessive.
“I was just asking because I was curious. And shouldn’t I know how useful my 1 percent will be?”
Haha! Just curious… Simple. Do you know how much equity you need to have in order to run the company the way you want even if everyone is against it?”
“…50 percent and a little more.”
“Okay. “Your 1 percent may be small, but if you hold it, it will always come in handy.”
Grandpa Danzo tapped my shoulder once and went outside. I also went back to where I originally did Tsuya, and Aris Fitzgerald opened his eyes wide and looked at me with an expression that said he saw me in another way.
“Are you not scared of grandpa?”
“Why are you scared? “It’s my grandfather.”
“You were angry earlier. Conflict! The sound could be heard all the way from here. By the way, my grandfather said it was amazing that he could yell that loud at his age.”
“Well… “I’ll say it was a bit of a misunderstanding.”
“What? Curious. “Can you tell me what the misunderstanding is?”
This sister is cute. He was only 21 years old, a year older, but his behavior was very cute. Would it be said that something like being scared of grandpa or something that appears at first glance stimulates something in the man? Is it okay for Cool Beauty’s white model to be this cute?
“If you have any questions until next time we eat, I’ll let you know then.”
“Oh really!”
It was Aris Fitzgerald, who had her hands on her hips, puffed out her right cheek, and glanced at me.
After the tsuya, a farewell ceremony where the monk recites sutras and mourners put their hands together and pray for the soul to rest in peace, Taira Saburo’s body is placed in a very luxurious limousine hearse and heads to the crematorium.
Of course, since we were related by blood, we followed him to the crematorium. In Korea, there were many people who cried when a body went into the fire, but here, perhaps because it was a cold-hearted chaebol family or because the Japanese were people, almost no one cried. Only Taira Saburo’s wife, Taira Yukiko, shed sad tears. I feel sorry for you when I see that. Her husband also died, and the woman who gave birth to her husband’s child attended her husband’s funeral.
Taira Saburo’s ashes, which were returned from the crematorium to an urn, were placed in the home’s Buddhist altar, and her funeral was over. According to Japanese customs, one had to come to visit the shrine on the 7th, the 35th, and the 49th, but the funeral was the end.
My mom and I went back home in the car driven by the men in suits who picked me up. Before leaving, Aris Fitzgerald waved brightly, and I also waved my hand and put it to my ear in the shape of a phone to indicate that I would like to contact her. It was very cute to see her nod twice and say yes!
“Mom, what did you talk about with her uncles?”
“They asked me if I had an inheritance to return and if I would sell it to them.”
I made eye contact with the man in a suit looking through the rear-view mirror, but he wasn’t going to tell me about my stake, so I kept asking my mom questions.
“What are you inheriting too, Mom? “To be exact, her mother is not her wife.”
“Yes. So I said I had nothing to give because I had nothing to receive.”
“Aha. “But I got a job at a good company?”
When she spoke and showed her employee ID card from the Tyra Talent Development Center, she was a smiling mother. She said and she slapped my back.
“Did you get in because you were good at it? “Ugh!”
After that, I went home quietly. Not only because I didn’t have anything to say, but because I was tired, I fell asleep without realizing it.
###
Tyra Motors’ luxury limousine. Inside, Taira Danzo was riding in the back seat.
“Does that nonsense guy know why I assigned him to the Human Resources Development Center?”
Tyra Danzo closed his eyes in the back seat of a car and then opened his mouth. In response to the chairman’s question, Takayuki Fumimoto, the chief secretary and driver, shook his head as if saying no.
“You wouldn’t know, would you? Master Ryuta has just graduated from high school… It’s a bit harsh to say it this way, but it’s a baby. Moreover, I couldn’t even step foot on the threshold of college.”
“College doesn’t matter. Being born with it is important. “Taira Kiyotaka (平聖峰), who founded our Taira Group, founded the Taira Group after barely graduating from elementary school.”
It was Taira Danzo who seemed to refute Takayuki Fumimoto’s words. But Taira Danzo also knew it well. Taira Kiyotaka founded the Taira Group after surviving the chaotic period following Japan’s defeat in the war, and he knew well that universities were important in this era.
“No matter how important it is to be born with it, it is important to learn from a young age. Master Ryuta, didn’t your other cousins and uncles learn kingship from an early age?”
“Hmm…”
The car was filled with silence for a moment.
“I don’t know if that guy will do well at work.”
“Wouldn’t it be one of two things? “You either get embarrassed and act foolish, or you over-confident about your own blood and do crazy things.”
“Then I guess that’s it.”
“But wouldn’t Taira Ryuta’s life be better than Hata Ryuta’s life?”
It was Taira Danzo who quietly answered Fumimoto Tagayuki’s question, wondering if it was really so.
“But I don’t think it will end like that. I guess it’s because it’s been a long time since I’ve seen the Tyra clan who aren’t afraid of me…”
“Chairman, ignorance means not knowing fear. “The other Tyra clans are afraid because they know the Chairman.”
There was confidence in Takayuki Fumimoto’s words. Fumimoto Takayuki himself is afraid, but his close relatives are probably even more so. Even now, his child has died, and he hasn’t shed a single tear.
Of course, there were several more children, wives, and relatives who died while Taira Danzo was growing the company, but even then, he did not show any tears or regret. All Taira Danzo did was seek cruel revenge. The fact that he took revenge not by killing his son, but by touching the Taira group showed the heartlessness of Taira Danzo.
“Okay, enough about my grandson… “Have you found out who ordered Saburo to be killed?”
“A large remittance amount came from the account of the dump truck driver who hit Master Saburo’s car. About 500 million yen…”
“Of course, where the money was sent has been erased, right?”
“Yes.”
The chairman is silent for a moment. The back of Takayuki Fumimoto’s head was tingling. The chairman was showing signs of life. Takayuki Fumimoto broke into a cold sweat without realizing it.
“I guess it’s Minamoto or Taira.”
“Yes? “Tyra?”
I was so nervous that I answered like an idiot without realizing it. The Chairman is suspicious of not only his rival Minamoto, but even his own company, the Taira Group! Once the chairman started to have doubts like this, bloodshed was sure to hit the company. Even now, they are using their children as an excuse to purge dissatisfied forces within the company. Is it possible to not be afraid of the president like this? In particular, the family was even more afraid of Chairman Taira Danzo.
“Where can I delete the account details of remittances made in this country?”
“We are the Taira Group and the Minamoto Group.”
“First of all, the guy who can do it is the suspect. Don’t wander around in strange places and look for Minamoto and Taira. Fumimoto.”
“Yes, Chairman!”
