Chapter 3314 Heaven Punishes the Traitors
Edo, the island of Wa (Japan).
Lawrence sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, looking calm and composed, his eyes full of amusement.
Sitting opposite him was Mutsuki Sakai.
However, at this moment, Mutsuki Sakai's face was ashen and her expression was uneasy; she showed no trace of her former domineering self.
Beside the house, Mengsha stood there quietly, watching everything unfold before her, as if she were invisible.
However, when his gaze fell on the stunned Mutsuki Sakai, a hint of disdain appeared on his face.
'A dog that can't find its place!'
Da da
Lawrence tapped the table lightly with his sterling silver lighter, the crisp sound sending a shiver down Sakai Mutsuki's spine.
"Ms. Sakai!"
"Hi, sir."
As soon as Lawrence opened his mouth, Mutsuki Sakai immediately straightened her back and nodded vigorously.
Lawrence glanced at the other person, but was not moved by their 'sincerity'; instead, he felt a sense of revulsion.
That's how the Japanese are; they appear very submissive on the surface, even displaying polite manners and humble expressions when interacting with others.
In reality, all of this is just a facade. Their submissiveness is merely a pretense, concealing darkness, selfishness, and undeniable malice within.
Just like Mutsuki Sakai in front of me, she seems to be very proactive in admitting her mistakes, but in reality, she is an ungrateful wretch who can never be tamed.
Of course, the Americans have the best way to deal with ingrates.
All you need to do is keep whipping them.
If you perform well, you will be rewarded with two lashes.
If they don't perform well, they'll get a couple more lashes.
Like this time, this woman is so clueless about the situation.
The Freedom One computer they built in the United States was such a perfect computer; giving it to the Japanese islands shows how much they value them.
As a result, this woman actually rallied a group of Japanese zaibatsu (financial conglomerates) to boycott her.
This resulted in the Freedom 1 being completely unsellable in Japan.
In the end, they couldn't even recoup the shipping costs. Who will be responsible for this loss?
The key point is that this woman also contacted China and directly purchased the Jiaoyang 75 computer.
How can this be allowed?
Isn't this infringing on the interests of merchants in the United States?
To infringe upon the interests of the merchants of the United States is, of course, to infringe upon the interests of the United States.
So he came with orders.
"You know Jonard, right?"
Mutsuki Sakai nodded again. "You mean Mr. Dawson? Yes, I know him."
"Hmm, Dawson? That's quite a famous name."
Mutsuki Sakai nodded hurriedly, "Mr. Dawson is an important partner of ours and also a very outstanding American."
Lawrence leaned forward with a faint smile, then said again, "Well then, Harris, let me tell you about the United States' decision."
Mutsuki Sakai didn't understand why Lawrence changed the subject so quickly, and why it was back to Harris.
However, he quickly replied, "Yes, sir, I understand Mr. Harris's decision."
Lawrence nodded. "That's good."
"It's good to know."
Snapped!
The next moment, a slap landed directly on Mutsuki Sakai's face.
Hi!
Mutsuki Sakai quickly turned her head back, then lowered it forcefully and shouted loudly.
If I didn't slap him back to make it symmetrical, I'd really be letting down Mutsuki Sakai.
So Lawrence slapped him again.
Hi!
Now it's symmetrical.
Mutsuki Sakai didn't dare to look up and lowered her head again.
"These two slaps were delivered on behalf of someone else. I think you should know exactly who it was."
Mutsuki Sakai didn't dare to say a word. Although she didn't know exactly who it was, it was definitely someone from that circle.
That was someone she dared not offend.
"And you need to understand."
“If I don’t give you these two slaps, you’ll be out of this position today, and you’ll never see the sun rise again tomorrow.”
Mutsuki Sakai swayed, then lowered her body, not daring to look up.
"Hey, I got it."
Mutsuki Sakai's voice was a little unsteady, but her demeanor remained very upright.
Upon seeing this, Lawrence gave a cold laugh.
"Complete the replacement of all Dawn computers within a week."
"The number of Dawn One satellites is the same as the number of Freedom One satellites. As for your computers, those things should never be sold again."
"clear?"
"Yes, I understand."
"Go!"
"Hi!"
Mutsuki Sakai quickly stood up, bowed to Lawrence, and then slowly walked backward out of the room, finally opening the door and bowing her head as she went out.
Lawrence shook his hand and then looked at Mengsha beside him.
"Call back home and tell them the matter here has been resolved."
"We'll send over as many computers as there are on the Japanese islands."
Mengsha nodded. "Understood, boss."
"So, Mr. Jonard has invited you to dinner tonight. How should you respond?"
Lawrence got up and walked to the glass window, then stretched vigorously. "Tell him I'll be there on time."
"Anyone can make money from this Japanese island, can't they?"
Mengsha smiled and nodded, "On the premise that we are citizens of the United States."
Lawrence laughed heartily, then reached out, and Mengsha stepped forward to lean against him.
Night falls, and the city lights up.
Inside the venue, Lawrence and Dawson sat in a hotel suite, while socialites from Japan walked back and forth between them.
“Jonard, I’ve never understood why you like staying here.”
"Now, I think I understand."
With his arms around both women, Lawrence's gaze fell on Dawson, who was diagonally opposite him.
Upon hearing Lawrence's words, Dawson simply smiled and said, "Director Lawrence, I'm just a businessman."
"Like any ordinary businessman, he is simply trying to create and earn wealth."
"If I had to point out any difference, it would probably be that I would find the most suitable products in the most suitable place and then deliver them to the most suitable place to earn the most profit."
"That's all."
Dawson casually picked up his glass and raised it towards Lawrence.
Lawrence also raised his glass in a gesture of respect, and the two drank it down in one gulp.
The next moment, Lawrence asked the woman beside him to leave, and the area around them instantly fell silent.
"So, Mr. Dawson, how much did you make this time?"
Lawrence crossed his legs, looking curious. "I heard you built a factory here specifically to produce computers. The profits must be considerable."
"Many people in China have strong opinions about this."
A sharp glint flashed in Dawson's eyes, but his expression remained unchanged.
"In business, competitors are enemies. My father told me this a long time ago."
"Oh, then I wonder what the old gentleman said?"
Lawrence suddenly became interested, but Dawson sighed and shook his head. "He said that the most important thing in doing business is to value harmony."
"Then, his business was completely devoured by his peers, leaving us brothers and sisters with only a house."
Dawson put down his glass and said, "Back then, I knew that the most important thing in doing business is to make a lot of money, because with money, people will stand with you."
"If someone is still threatening you, it means you're not making enough money."
Lawrence put down his wine glass, his face showing a serious expression for the first time. He stared at the man in front of him, his heart filled with mixed feelings.
In the United States, you can live without power, but you cannot live without money. And if you have money, you will have power.
That's just how reality is.
However, hearing such a realistic thing spoken by the other person always gave him a strange sense of humiliation.
Especially since he is a person with power in the United States.
"This is just a small token of our appreciation. We hope you, Director, have a wonderful time on this Japanese island."
Dawson took a check out of his pocket and slowly pushed it in front of him.
Lawrence glanced at it under the green light.
A long string of zeros rushed towards me, and I quickly counted them in my mind.
Ten million US dollars.
He was breathing rapidly and his face was flushed.
"Don't worry, no one knows about this money, and no one will find out."
Dawson spoke again, "As long as you ensure that the computers we produce are used on this Japanese island."
"That's all."
Lawrence didn't look at the checks on the table, but looked into Dawson's eyes. "You know, Chinese computers have caused huge losses in the country. Doing this would break the rules."
Dawson didn't take it seriously. "Director, please understand, we are businessmen of the United States. We are making money, which means the United States is making money."
"As for the heavy losses you mentioned, only some of the merchants in the United States suffered losses."
"I think there must be more businessmen who make money than those who lose money."
Dawson smiled after he finished speaking, and Lawrence smiled as well.
"You're right. The easiest way to succeed is to side with the successful people."
Lawrence picked up the check and put it in his pocket.
"One last question, Mr. Dawson, please answer it directly."
"Please speak."
"What price did you pay for partnering with China to build this factory?"
Dawson leaned back in his chair, picked up a bottle of rum, poured himself a drink, and swirled it in his hand with a calm expression.
"We paid a 100 million yuan entry fee, and in return, we will purchase processors from China and share the profits."
After Dawson finished speaking, Lawrence frowned and asked, "Do you think you can make money doing this?"
Dawson shrugged. "Probably."
Lawrence didn't ask any more questions, then leaned back on the sofa and picked up his wine glass.
Hey~
The sound of glasses clinking rang out, and the two drank it all in one gulp.
"Sir, are we really going to do this?"
Under the cover of night, in Mutsuki Sakai's mansion, a group of well-dressed elites sat around.
Looking at the expressions of everyone around him, Li Yuan finally gritted his teeth and asked.
Mutsuki Sakai nodded slightly without saying anything.
Li Yuan opened his mouth, unsure of what to ask.
At this moment, someone stood up, quickly walked over, knelt down, and asked, "My lord."
Mutsuki Sakai looked up and saw that this man was a merchant representative from the Kansai region, a big businessman who started in the fishing industry and then transitioned to international trade.
"Mr. Muto, please speak."
Mutsuki Sakai's voice was devoid of any emotion.
Muto bowed first before saying, "My lord."
“A month ago, you told us to promote domestically produced computers and support the national industry of Japan.”
"We responded positively and had our group companies replace the still-functioning Dawn One satellite."
"At that time, we all knew that doing this was just burying our heads in the sand. The only thing that could convince us was to support domestic products."
"At that time, even though we knew we would lose money, we still bought it."
"Then, we received your instructions to replace the computer, which had been used for less than a month."
"The reason is also to support domestic products, even if the computers are made in China."
Muto's voice trembled, as if he had felt a great humiliation. Everyone present clenched their fists, looking resentful but powerless.
Mutsuki Sakai understood what the other person meant and clenched the wrinkled hand in return.
"But now, another batch of United States computers will be plugged in."
"My lord, what exactly do you take our Japanese islands for?"
"A dumping ground for our products? Where does that leave our dignity?"
After Muto finished speaking, he looked up at Mutsuki Sakai.
“If they need money, we can give it to them directly. There’s no need to humiliate us in this way.”
After Muto finished speaking, everyone present looked up and stared straight ahead.
Anger was rising in the conference room.
However, Mutsuki Sakai was not affected by the anger. She remained seated above and looked at everyone present.
"This is an order personally delivered by the United States."
"You don't have to do it."
A cold glint flashed deep in Sakai Mutsuki's eyes; she didn't take the others seriously.
Because she knew exactly what kind of people these were.
When facing their fellow countrymen, they can be aloof, cold, and ruthless.
But when facing the United States, they are like spineless wretches, not even daring to bare their teeth.
As expected, after Mutsuki Sakai made his stance clear and brought up the United States, a look of fear immediately appeared in the eyes of Muto, who was leading the group.
No one dared to speak.
Seeing this, Mutsuki Sakai sneered, "They only gave us a week."
"If we fail to complete the task within a week, neither you nor I will see the sun rise tomorrow."
"And the foundation you have worked so hard to build will also become their wealth."
"You can decide for yourselves what to do."
After saying that, Mutsuki Sakai touched her still sore cheek, got up and left.
Li Yuan, acting as an assistant, glanced at everyone present and snorted coldly, saying, "The master has already done his best."
"Don't go too far."
He then followed behind Mutsuki Sakai and left.
After the two left, everyone got up one after another.
"Muto-kun!"
A group of people surrounded Muto, looking anxious.
At this moment, Muto had regained his composure and looked at everyone solemnly, saying, "Gentlemen, she is right. This time, we have no choice."
Everyone fell silent.
Muto added, "Moreover, we are prepared for bleeding; the only difference is the manner of the bleeding."
"Just think of it as playing house with them."
After he said that, many people smiled.
"Mr. Muto, let's discuss this."
"Okay, time is of the essence, we need to come up with a solution as soon as possible."
"Mr. Muto, you are highly respected. Please take charge of the work."
Everyone spoke up, and Muto nodded with a smile, then said, "I appreciate everyone's kindness."
"However, our abilities are limited. We must all work together under Sakai-sama's leadership, brave the wind and waves, and overcome the difficulties."
"Muto has some things to take care of, so I'll take my leave."
Muto smiled at everyone before leaving the meeting room.
However, as soon as Muto stepped out, his face immediately turned gloomy.
The next day, Mutsuki Sakai went out to attend a meeting in the morning. As her motorcade drove from the main road into the street, it was blocked by a group of people holding banners and shouting slogans.
Mutsuki Sakai frowned, and Kurihara, in the passenger seat, turned around to comfort her, "Sir, don't worry about it."
However, before he could finish speaking, a man suddenly ran out, shouting "May the traitors of the country be punished!"
Then a burst of sparks rose up, and the entire car overturned to the ground.
Instantly, chaos erupted all around!
