Nan Yi's thoughts sank to his lower body, but just as they reached his belly button, they were suddenly pulled back above his neck.
"Colored contact lenses, aren't these called cosmetic contact lenses? Cosmetic contact lenses..."
After searching his memory, Nan Yi found that he knew almost nothing about colored contact lenses. He had no idea how much they sold for, nor how big the potential market was.
He just vaguely remembered that in his previous life, several women he met in the company's office building should have been wearing colored contact lenses, because their pupils would change color every now and then, sometimes black, sometimes gold.
"Contact lenses should have different usage durations, such as daily, monthly, and annual. If we intervene in the field of cosmetic lenses now, bring in a few allies to set industry standards, keep the price at a relatively high level, and turn cosmetic lenses into fast-moving consumer goods, will this be feasible? How long can we keep out low-price disruptors with patents alone?"
Nan Yi thought about it for a while and put the matter of colored contact lenses aside for the time being. He knew too little about it and it was useless to think too much about it now.
"Nagao-kun, we have already communicated and the measurements have been measured." As soon as Nan Yi came out of his self-thinking, Hanazawa Ryoko walked up to him and said.
"Ah, so fast, Athena, thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard. This is what I should do." Hanazawa Ryoko said politely while bowing slightly.
“I wonder how much deposit I have to pay?”
"It's 40,000 yen in total. Nagao-kun can pay me 20,000 yen first."
“It’s really not cheap.”
Nan Yi muttered inwardly, took out a stack of money from his pocket, counted out four bills and handed them to Hanazawa Ryoko, "Athena represents justice, Seiya is willing to believe in you, please accept it, this is the full amount."
Hanazawa Ryoko smiled and took the money. "Thank you for your trust, Nagao-kun. Although I really want to be Athena, I know I can't do it. I can only be Kido Saori."
"Kirouto Saori is great. After all, we live in the human world, not in heaven. Can I call you Saori-chan from now on?"
"Of course, Nagao-kun."
Nan Yi said playfully: "Saori-chan, you can call me Seiya."
Hanazawa Ryoko's cheeks blushed and she did not respond to Nan Yi.
Looking at Hanazawa Ryoko's blushing face, Nan Yi chuckled, "Saori-chan, I won't bother you anymore. Please call me when the clothes are ready. Yamei knows my number."
"Ha...Hayi."
Holding Nan Wuwei's hand, Nan Yi walked out of Liangzi Clothing Store.
Just after walking a short distance, Nan Wuwei suddenly asked, "Dad, what is the relationship between Seiya and Kido Saori?"
"Seiya is the biological son of Kido Saori's grandfather, and Seiya and Kido Saori grew up together, childhood sweethearts, just like you and Nuannuan."
"Where's Athena?"
"Athena, she is a god, she can reincarnate continuously. In Saint Seiya, her reincarnation in this life is Kido Saori, so Kido Saori has a dual personality."
"What is a dual personality?"
…
The father and son asked and answered questions, and the topic shifted from comics to medicine, until Nan Yi could not answer the question asked by Nan Wuwei, and then the question-and-answer mode was temporarily ended.
In the backyard, Sayuri Hagiwara scooped a bucket of water from the hot spring pool, walked to the massage bed next to her, tilted the bucket, and poured it from the back of Nan Yi's neck to his calves.
After pouring one scoop of water, he poured another scoop, and when all the mud rubbed off Nan Yi's body was washed away, he patted Nan Yi and signaled him to turn over.
Nan Yi turned over and raised his left arm.
Sayuri Hagiwara grabbed Nan Yi's wrist, put a bath towel on her other hand, and rubbed Nan Yi's elbow hard a few times.
“How’s business in the store?”
"It's about the same as previous years, with no major ups and downs. Business is better during the season change, and the turnover so far this year is about 70 million yen."
“A little.”
"It's already a lot. The annual turnover can exceed 300 million yen. After deducting what the company takes, there is still about 55% profit left, which is..." Sayuri Hagiwara hesitated to speak.
"What's the matter? Just say it if you have something to say."
"There's not much to do in the store. I just sit there in a daze every day."
"Bored?"
"Hayi, I want to open another store."
"Think about opening a shop later. I'm going to Mumbai soon. You can come with me."
"real?"
A look of surprise appeared on Sayuri Hagiwara's face, and she looked at Nan Yi's face with fiery eyes.
Nan Yi blinked, and Sayuri Hagiwara cheered. Then, she took off the bath towel in her hand and climbed onto the massage bed...
…
the next day.
Before noon, Ueto Masami sent someone to bring some information about the Long-Term Credit Bank to Nan Yi.
Holding the information, Nan Yi sat down in the pavilion.
Sayuri Hagiwara, who didn't go to the store, immediately brought tea to Nan Yi, then stood behind him and gently massaged his shoulders.
Nan Yi closed his eyes and enjoyed it for a while, then opened his eyes and began to look through the information.
Changyin Bank is a bank whose main business is long-term investment loan business. Its business characteristics are to provide long-term loans to enterprises for new construction, expansion, reconstruction and equipment investment. The loan term is mostly more than 1 year and less than 15 years.
Ways to provide loans include issuing long-term mortgage loans, guaranteed loans, or providing long-term funds to enterprises by purchasing corporate stocks and bonds.
The main sources of funds for China Merchants Bank are the issuance of stocks, financial bonds and transferable time deposits. The issuance of financial bonds is its main source of funds, and the absorption of customer deposits is also one of its sources of funds.
The main difference between Changyin and general commercial banks is that the former's funding source mainly relies on equity capital and the issuance of financial bonds, while the latter mainly relies on attracting demand deposits from industrial and commercial enterprises and individuals;
Second, the former's main business is to provide equipment investment loans and other long-term investment loans to enterprises, while the latter's main business is to provide short-term loans to industrial and commercial enterprises.
However, except for various banks engaged in policy-based long-term credit business, long-term credit institutions and commercial banks all pursue profits as their main business goal. Long-term credit institutions are also commercial banks with independent accounting and self-financing.
In the 1950s, in accordance with the Long-Term Credit Bank Act, three Japanese banks - Industrial Bank, Kangyo Bank, and Hokkaido Takushoku Bank - were reorganized into Long-Term Credit Bank. Kangyo Bank was split into two, half becoming an ordinary commercial bank and the other half reorganized into Long-Term Credit Bank. Usually, "Chang-Gin" refers to this bank, and the other two banks continued to use their original names.
In 1952, Chang-Gong Bank was established on the basis of the former Kangyo Bank of Japan. The government provided 50% of the capital by subscribing to preferred shares. Within three years after its establishment, the Ministry of Finance subscribed to 40% of all financial bonds of Chang-Gong Bank. With its deep government "genes", Chang-Gong Bank can be said to be half a national bank.
In the early 1960s, with the rapid development of Japan's economy, the business of Changchun Commercial Bank developed rapidly. In 1963, Changchun Commercial Bank provided hundreds of billions of yen in funds to Japan's domestic manufacturing industry.
In the early 1980s, Long-Term Credit Bank formulated reform measures, hoping to shift its focus from traditional credit to investment banking, but did not receive support from external regulators and internal conservatives.
"interesting."
When Nan Yi saw this paragraph, his eyes swept to the following text written in red pen: Many senior executives of Changji Bank are retired officials from the Ministry of Finance, and this group of people are also the backbone of Changji Bank's conservative faction.
The strategy of Long-Term Credit Bank to issue large amounts of loans to real estate companies and to directly invest in real estate were all proposed by conservatives, and the review authority of the loan review department was mainly controlled by conservatives.
"We need to check carefully what real estate Changyin has invested in and from whom it was acquired."
Nan Yi drew a question mark next to this information and continued reading.
In terms of loan allocation, as a commercial bank with policy attributes, when it was first established, Chang-Bo Bank mainly focused on industries that were in line with the "national interest" and obeyed the industrial policies of the Ministry of Finance, such as shipbuilding, electricity, steel, coal and other industries in the early days of World War II, and later industrial production industries such as automobile manufacturing.
In Changyin's view, only companies with government support and in line with government policy orientations, as well as their affiliated companies, can survive in Japan for a long time.
Therefore, in its actual credit business, Changyin often does not use the company's financial statements as the basis for judgment, but instead considers the company's background and social relations more.
Against this background, Long-Term Credit has a very stable lending spread.
The enactment of the Temporary Interest Adjustment Act in 1945 stipulated the interest ceilings for financial institutions, including bank deposit rates, loan rates, bill discount rates, and account overdraft rates.
The interest rate on bonds issued by Long-Term Credit Bank to other institutions is always fixed at 90 basis points higher than the long-term preferential loan rate, while the lending rate of Long-Term Credit Bank is fixed at a certain level higher than the Bank of Japan's discount rate.
As the Japanese economy took off, CRCC also continued to grow.
In 1963, NCBI loaned money to industry giants including Toyota, Toray Group, Kawasaki Steel, Tokyo Electric Power, Bridgestone Tire and Toshiba. During the same period, NCBI also helped these companies expand overseas.
In the mid-to-late 1960s, after guaranteeing Toyota's loan to the Export-Import Bank of the United States, CKH Bank realized the importance of overseas opportunities and sent employees to learn foreign languages ​​and receive training at overseas banks.
The "internationalists" in the management of Changyin Bank in the future, such as Katsunobu Ōnoki and Koji Hirao, stood out after receiving overseas training during this period.
With the economic slowdown in the 1970s and the development of the direct financing market, the need for loans through Long-Term Credit Bank decreased, threatening the long-term development of Long-Term Credit Bank.
Therefore, the "international faction" including Katsunobu Ohnoki began to advocate reforms to Long-Term Credit Bank, and Ohnoki's suggestion that the company transform into an investment bank was also recognized by Long-Term Credit Bank's senior management.
At the end of 1983, due to financial regulatory reasons, although banks were still not allowed to engage in bond and stock business in Japan, they could set up branches overseas and participate in bond underwriting in overseas markets.
Therefore, China Everbright Bank plans to set up an "investment banking group" to develop new businesses such as bond trading, investment consulting and a series of products.
In the strategic plan released by NCCB in 1985, Mario Mizukami, the leader of the reform, criticized the backwardness of the current Japanese financial system and pointed out the direction of NCCB's reform, which mainly included:
Japan's financial and economic atmosphere is distorted, and its financial system has not kept up. Banks need to change their roles and provide more advanced financial products. Large scale no longer means increased profits. Banks need to establish a corporate finance team. Employee promotions should be based on contributions, the management level should be simplified, and individual contributions should be reflected in the salary system.
Although the reforms on the water were opposed by the "domestic faction" within Changyin, the "international faction" still made efforts for the reform.
Ohnoki was put in charge of the investment banking group, and Hirao was sent to New York to develop the international capital markets of Long-Term Credit Bank. He later supervised the purchase of a portion of the shares of Pierce, a Japanese mergers and acquisitions company, and acquired Greenwich Capital Management, a major bond trader.
However, starting from 1985, with the continuous accumulation of real estate and stock bubbles in Japan, the efforts of the reformists of Long-Term Credit Bank came to nothing. The bubble economy brought easy profits, causing Long-Term Credit Bank to indulge in the game of bubble economy, especially real estate, which became Long-Term Credit Bank's new favorite.
After the Plaza Accord was signed, the appreciation of the yen caused a sharp decline in exports and the Japanese economy went into recession.
In order to ease the economic downturn and deflationary pressure, Japan began to adopt expansionary fiscal and monetary policies. After a series of interest rate cuts between 1986 and 1987, the central bank's discount rate fell from 5% at the beginning of 1986 to 2.5% in February 1987, the lowest level since World War II.
A series of financial easing measures have led to a significant increase in the growth rate of Japan's money supply.
Driven by appreciation expectations, low interest rates and ample liquidity, a large amount of hot money has poured into the stock market and real estate.
Japanese companies' investment in financial assets has nearly tripled from 7.9 trillion yen before 1985 to more than 20 trillion yen today, and the proportion of funds used for land investment has more than doubled.
In the more than three years after 1985, land assets owned by companies not related to real estate increased by more than 6%, and a large amount of funds poured into real estate and stock markets, leading to unprecedented prosperity in these two markets.
Amid the prosperity, Japan's commercial banks naturally joined the carnival. Due to the fierce competition, commercial banks began to pursue high-risk and high-return projects, and indirectly financed the bubble industries by lending to commercial loan companies.
According to statistics from the Ministry of Finance, financing from commercial banks to commercial loan companies in Japan accounts for about 20% of the total financing amount, and financing from commercial loan companies to real estate accounts for 40% of their total financing amount.
From 1985 to the present, Long-Term Credit Bank's assets have grown from 18.4 trillion yen to more than 20 trillion yen, with a considerable portion of its asset valuation coming from a substantial increase in real estate loans.
Today, the market value of China Everbright Bank is approaching the 20 billion US dollar mark, and has entered the top ten in the World Bank's valuation ranking. Both S&P and Moody's have given China Everbright Bank an AAA rating.
The craze for real estate made the original transformation of China Everbright Bank into an investment bank less urgent. Compared with the restrictions and meager profits of investment banks, real estate loans were more profitable.
Therefore, the new leader adjusted the strategic plan previously formulated by Mario Mizukami, announcing that the bank should take investment banking as its long-term goal, but in the short term it should still focus on corporate lending as its core business; at the same time, it required full use of new opportunities in real estate and focus on developing lending to small and medium-sized enterprises.
Among Changyin’s real estate loans, EIE’s loans are typical representatives.
The content of the data ends here. After all, even if you work all night, only one day has passed. It is impossible to collect too much information, not to mention that there are still some data that need to be calculated.
From the existing information, Nan Yi can already see a lot of problems: First, why can companies represented by EIE get real estate loans, and what are the criteria for evaluation and screening?
An assessment of a company’s financial situation and long-term development potential, or just based on “personal relationship proximity”?
Second, is direct investment in real estate a simple investment behavior, or is it acting as a scapegoat for certain interest groups?
The Japanese real estate bubble is huge, which is obvious to many people, including many real estate companies that are already deeply involved in it. They can also see that house and land prices will fall sooner or later, and this sooner or later is probably not far away.
It’s just that real estate has a characteristic of “high leverage”. The rapid expansion of a real estate company is inseparable from financial institutions, mainly financial support from banks.
The expansion of 1 yuan to 1,000 yuan is inseparable from the soaring real estate prices and the high debt to banks.
To put it in a more vulgar way, banks use the money of "future home buyers" to lend to real estate companies to push up housing prices, and finally let the "future home buyers" pay the bill. Not only do the "future home buyers" have to exhaust their savings in the bank, but they also have to owe the bank a large sum of money.
After all these twists and turns, the pressure on housing prices still falls on the banks. The leverage is provided by the banks, and the mortgages are issued by the banks. If real estate companies and homeowners start to mess up, the banks will be in trouble and will suffer a chain of bankruptcies.
The banks are the backbone and the most devout ones who wish to God that housing prices will not fall. Banks of different natures have kidnapped different interest groups to make wishes with them. This force of will will accumulate and eventually tie everyone to housing prices.
Japan's real estate tank has reached a speed of over 300 kilometers per hour. If it wants to brake urgently, there is a 90% probability that it will overturn. Who dares to pull the emergency brake easily?
The passengers on the bus who have super powers and vision are already preparing to escape or have already fled, going overseas and buying things all over the world, which can be completely regarded as a risk diversification strategy.
In some cases, the purchase of foreign assets at a higher price is indeed due to the excessive money, like a poor man suddenly becoming rich, but in others it may not be the case.
Pushing up the valuation of foreign assets can completely hedge against Japan's domestic liabilities and mortgaging the highly valued foreign assets to banks. This can free up the "real high-quality assets" or allow the loan snowball game that is about to collapse to continue.
There were many passengers on the chariot who could foresee that the chariot would be destroyed but were unable to escape. If they jumped out of the chariot, they would at least be paralyzed if not killed; if they did not jump out of the chariot and risked continuing to move forward, they could maintain their current decadent and extravagant life while also looking forward to the future.
Maybe, the chariot will never overturn. Maybe, we can unite with our comrades to do the bad things together. What if the loan is not repaid?
A pair of chopsticks can be easily broken, but ten pairs of chopsticks can be firmly held together. There is strength in numbers, so you can definitely give it a try and exercise your power.
It is precisely because of all these choices and helplessness that the drums are still beating and the flowers are still being passed down, but as they are passed on, you can find something wrong. Hey, this one looks familiar, I have seen it when I applied for a loan from a certain bank. That one looks familiar, I have also seen it when I applied for a loan.
Oh my god, isn’t this the prodigal son from the Li family, and that is the loser from the Wang family? Both families are impoverished, how can they afford to buy “flowers”?
After reading the information from Chang Hsin Bank, Nan Yi gained a deeper understanding of the Japanese real estate bubble, and it also required him to fine-tune some plans, such as the plan for the Times Building.
First, negotiate with Wonderful's shareholders to sell the Times Building to an offshore company "Company A" at a price slightly higher than the market price. Company A is preferably a Japanese company.
The second step was to register another offshore company, "Company B", which acted as a matchmaker between EIE and Company A and sold the Times Building to EIE at a "reasonable price";
On top of the "reasonable price", EIE can add another US$500 million, of which US$300 million will be returned to the account designated by Takahashi Osunori, and the remaining US$200 million will be Company B's hard work fee. The "reasonable price" will be distributed among Wonderful shareholders in proportion to their shares.
Of course, Company B’s hard work fee can be lower. It depends on how it is negotiated with Takahashi Oshinori and whether Takahashi Oshinori has the urgency to leave himself a way out.
I called Rachel, explained the details of the plan, and asked her to negotiate with Wonderful's shareholders and take charge of Company A's affairs. I called Ueto Masami over, explained the details of the plan as well, and asked her to take charge of Company B's affairs.
After the instructions were given, Rachel and Ueto Masami both took action. They went to negotiate when necessary and to find beautiful women when necessary. They couldn't get in touch with Takahashi Oshinori directly, but had to use a roundabout way.
After the small plan was implemented, Nan Yi went to look for information on Industrial Bank and Hokkaido Takushoku Bank. After spending two or three days collecting surface information and reading, Nan Yi put Chang Hwa Bank and Hokkaido Takushoku Bank on the pre-acquisition candidate list.
If he can only choose one of the two, Nan Yi prefers the Hokkaido Takushoku Bank because this bank's collateral includes many ranches and farms in Hokkaido, and a large part of their business is aimed at agriculture-related enterprises. This is a bank that once shouldered the important task of supporting Hokkaido agriculture.
Of course, both banks are good, and when you have no choice, either one will do.
With great benefits at hand, Nan Yi temporarily put aside his concerns about cosmetic contact lenses and friendly matches and devoted himself to studying the information of Japanese banks.
Nan Yi did not study the bank information behind closed doors in the Japanese garden. He was inspecting the properties of Inter Milan while reading the information.
Baoguo Migu's headquarters is in Tokyo, but its industries are basically all in the Kanagawa area. Only Baoguo agricultural machinery has moved from Kanagawa to Osaka. Kanagawa lacks agricultural machinery supporting enterprises. Once Baoguo agricultural machinery goes into mass production, the production cost will remain high, which will not be conducive to competing with other brands.
The market for small agricultural machinery is not very broad. There is only a small market in Japan and South Korea, and sales to other countries are only sporadic. The self-generating ability of Baoguo Agricultural Machinery is not strong, and there is no need to build an industrial cluster for it from scratch.
The situation in Osaka is much better, with several agricultural machinery companies taking root there, including internationally renowned agricultural machinery brands such as Kubota and Yanmar Agricultural Machinery. Their headquarters and production bases are located in Osaka, and the related supporting companies are relatively complete, with nothing missing.
What's more, Nan Yi already had a plan in mind to form a large agricultural machinery group, and Yanmar Agricultural Machinery was his acquisition target. By getting close to it and understanding it, he would be able to target his acquisition efforts in the future.
The reason why the plan has not yet been implemented is that Nanyi intends to start with small agricultural machinery, accumulate machinery and manufacturing technologies, and then wait for further iterations in the chip industry. When the time is right, start directly from intelligence .
Large agricultural machinery companies are about to enter a period of technological iteration. It is most cost-effective for Shennong Nanliang to intervene in the large agricultural machinery field and acquire target companies during this period.
Since it is a "large-scale" enterprise, the investment is naturally huge. With one technological iteration, it is very likely that all the profits from the previous ten or twenty years will have to be made up. For the shareholders of agricultural machinery enterprises, they will face the choice of exiting the business safely or starting a second business.
The shareholders' period of hesitation is the best time for Shennong Nanliang to enter.
…
Hiratsuka City, at the foot of Mt. Narayama, Kume Village.
Nan Wuwei was wearing long sleeves and long pants with his cuffs tied up. He had a white towel draped over his head with a straw sun hat on top of the towel.
Nan Yida is dressed similarly to Nan Wuwei. The father and son are currently pushing a seeder in the fields to sow seeds.
The seeder is similar to a cart, with two medium-sized rollers with two rows of small holes in symmetrical positions. An inverted trapezoidal bucket is installed on the rollers, which contains cucumber seeds that have already sprouted.
When the roller rolls forward half a circle, the cucumber seeds will pass through the small holes on the front roller and fall onto the ridges. The small holes on the rear roller will seep out the culture soil, which just covers the seeds that fell in front.
"It's crooked, pay attention to the white line."
In order to take care of Nan Wuwei, reference lines are drawn on the ridges. If the route of the seeder goes astray, it can be corrected and continue to move forward parallel to the reference line.
Nan Wuwei looked at the reference line, adjusted the direction of the seeder, and continued to push the seeder forward.
"Dad, how about we compete to see who's faster?"
"You can't compete. Just keep pushing forward at this pace. It won't work if you're too fast or too slow."
"Why?"
"After you finish your work, Dad will teach you. This involves mathematics and physics."
"oh."
Nanwu nodded his little head and continued to move forward at the same pace as before.
There are seven ridges in total. Nan Yi worked on nine ridges, and Nan Wuwei worked on two ridges. His two ridges were completely invalidated. Nan Yi had to clean them up first and then re-sow them, which meant four more ridges of work.
After planting the cucumbers, Nan Yi took Nan Wuwei and followed the staff of Baoguo Migu to a special watermelon field. The reason why it was special was that the watermelons planted in the field were of unusual shapes.
The watermelons are covered with molds in shapes such as cubes, triangles, hearts, and even more irregular shapes such as lucky cats and guitars.
Nan Wuwei didn't find the other things strange, as he had seen them before He walked straight to the side of the lucky cat, took a glance and then looked away, then turned to Nan Yi and said, "Dad, lucky cats don't have whiskers."
"If it doesn't have one, just draw it."
Nan Yi squatted in front of a square watermelon, picked it up carefully, and looked at the part lying on the ground.
"No, it won't look good after it's painted." Nan Wuwei replied, walked back to Nan Yi, reached out and touched the mold in Nan Yi's hand, "Dad, the mold is bigger than before."
"Of course, we used to grow them for you to play with, but now we want to sell them for money. One watermelon can be sold for hundreds of thousands, or even millions of yen."
“A lot.”
"Yeah, a lot."
The special-shaped watermelons can indeed be sold at the price that Nan Yi mentioned. After all, they are new things. In addition, the Japanese are rich now, but it does not mean that the profit of Baoguo Migu will be so much. Among them, the Agricultural Cooperative will take a large part of the profit.
Japan's Agricultural Cooperatives have been of great help to farmers and have guaranteed their income, but at the same time, this organization, which originally served farmers wholeheartedly, has now moved towards the profit model of a general trading company.
The agricultural cooperatives have a firm control over all channels from raw material supply to agricultural product sales. They purchase pesticides, fertilizers, farm tools, etc. in a unified manner, and then sell them to farmers at prices 1 to 2 times higher than the market price.
The same goes for the crops grown by farmers. The agricultural cooperatives buy them at low prices and then sell them at "sky-high prices", sucking blood from farmers and consumers.
Speaking of bloodsucking, Nan Yi actually judged from his own perspective. How could he be willing to accept that the bulk of the profits from the things he worked so hard to grow were taken away by others?
Nan Yi has always been the kind of person who eats meat himself and lets others drink soup, so he can't stand eating other people's leftovers.
But for farmers who don't have much land, the Agricultural Cooperatives are still a good choice. Although pesticides, fertilizers, and farm tools are all controlled by the Agricultural Cooperatives, and they have to pay a price difference of one or two times, and the prices of agricultural products sold to foreign countries are also suppressed by the Agricultural Cooperatives, after being "exploited", farmers can still make good profits and live a good life.
At present, it is not the time for Baoguo Migu to fall out with the Agricultural Cooperatives. Although Baoguo Migu does not need the Agricultural Cooperatives' sales channels, it needs the Agricultural Cooperatives to continue to maintain its monopoly on agricultural products and continue to collude with certain people to manipulate agricultural product tariffs and maintain high prices for Japanese agricultural products.
Nan Yi is waiting for the full rollout of retail convenience store outlets. By then, Baoguo Migu will have to renegotiate with the Farmers' Association to get a profit distribution plan that he considers reasonable. Although the conditions given by the Farmers' Association to Baoguo Migu are already more favorable and much better than those for other farmers, Nan Yi still cannot be satisfied.
Therefore, the current situation of Baoguo Miguel is that there are seemingly considerable profits, room for further development, and Nan Yi’s inner desires are insatiable.
"Dad, is the watermelon ripe?"
"Not yet." Nan Yi handed the mold in his hand to Nan Wuwei, "Weigh it."
Nan Wuwei took the mold in his hand and weighed it up and down. "Dad, it's so heavy, but I don't know how much it weighs."
"Between 3.4 jin and 3.6 jin, the mold weighs 2 jin. When the watermelon grows big enough to fill the mold, it will be almost 12 jin. Come, dad will teach you how to weigh it."
When playing Mahjong, an old player does not need to look at the cards when touching them. He can know what the cards are by just rubbing them with his fingers. There is nothing magical about it. It is just that he has touched them so many times that his fingers remember the different feeling of touching each card.
A deck of mahjong has at least 136 cards, and the fingers need to remember at least 136 different changes in sensations. And to weigh the weight, one only needs to remember the different feelings of 1 liang to 10 liang in the hand, and then try heavier weights that are integer multiples of 1 liang to 10 liang, such as 1 jin, 5 jin, 10 jin, etc.
Even if you don't force yourself to memorize quickly subjectively, your body will naturally memorize passively over time.
Weighing the weight is much simpler than drawing the cards in mahjong. Nan Wuwei is at the age when his memory is the best, so he should be able to learn it quickly. He may be able to master the trick in just two or three times.
Nan Yi originally wanted to ask the staff to get some weights, but then he thought it was not right. The weight unit in Japan is different from that in China. A jin is 600.06 grams a day, and this unit is rarely used. Other units such as guan, liang, rou, fen, li, and mao are even rarer. In the urban area, kilograms are the only unit used.
Putting aside the idea of ​​teaching Nan Wuwei how to weigh the goods for the time being, Nan Yi took Nan Wuwei to the creek in Kume Village.
