In the spring of March 1997, Tokyo.

Masao Ishihara was awakened by a ringtone of his cell phone. He still closed his eyes, turned sideways, raised his right hand and searched next to the pillow for a few times, and then took the phone in his hand.

Masao Ishihara half opened his sleepy eyes in a daze, half closed his eyes and turned on the cover of his phone, pressed the green answer button on the phone keyboard, and attached it to his right ear, but did not speak.

Saki Ishihara was crying, his voice choked, and said in a crying voice: "Brother, my father had a heart attack and was sent to the hospital for rescue ineffectiveness and died."

Masao Ishihara immediately opened his eyes and sat up like an electric shock. He didn't think his sister dared to joke about such a thing: "I understand. I'll set off now."

"You must come back soon." Saki Ishihara reminded.

After responding to the "good" response, Masao Ishihara hung up the phone directly. He got out of bed and did not habitually walk into the bathroom to take a shower, but quickly put on his clothes.

Masao Ishihara is not a person from this era, but travels from the future. What makes him different from many time travelers is that he has a complete memory of his personal past life and future as soon as he is born from his womb.

Born in 1977 and at the age of 20 this year, he is currently studying in the second year of the Business School of Ichihashi University, which also means that the Ishihara family has raised him for twenty years.

In terms of blood, the father who had just passed away was definitely considered a biological father. Just before his own father passed away, his mother died when she was eight years old.

Two more years later, his father nominally re-issues and brought Saki's mother home to live together. In fact, the two did not submit a formal marriage to the district office.

However, the Ishihara family's household registration contains the names of their mother and daughter. At that time, her biological daughter Saki was also living in the Ishihara family with her adopted mother. He saw Saki for the first time, and he was only five years old.

I was ten years old at the time. Now, 15-year-old Saki Ishihara is studying in the third grade of a middle school in Karuizawa's hometown in Nagano Prefecture.

Masao Ishihara dressed up, washed it briefly, took his cell phone and wallet and went out. He went downstairs, stood on the side of the road and stopped a taxi and took it straight to Shinkansen Station.

At present, he no longer considers the cost-effectiveness, but instead thinks that he can return to his hometown one second earlier. As the only son of the Ishihara family, he naturally has to host and handle all the funerals behind his father.

In the past, even if he went back to his hometown, he would just take the bus to the long-distance bus station first, and then transfer to a long-distance bus to Karuizawa, Nagano Prefecture, which cost less after all.

After the taxi was parked outside the Shinkansen station in Tokyo, Masao Ishihara paid the fare in full according to the amount of the meter.

He got off the bus and rushed to the ticket office in two steps. He bought a ticket to the Nagano Shinkansen first, and then entered the waiting hall.

Situated on the top of a chair in the waiting hall, Masao Ishihara couldn't help but recall the little things he had passed with his father in his head.

It is precisely because of the other party's sudden death that his life plan will be disrupted. He guessed that he not only went back to his hometown to cook and host his father's funeral, but also involved the issue of inheriting the family business.

Not only did he open a whiskey distillery, he also opened a very famous Karuizawa whiskey distillery in RB. However, he did not get happy, but instead fell into trouble.

I learned through the ability of the Unknown to know that without any accidents, Karuizawa Whiskey Distillery will go bankrupt in three years.

Even if he wanted to inherit the family business, he was a whiskey distillery that had already reached the verge of shutting down and discontinuing production. Although he was born in a family of RB famous whiskey distillation technology, he really had no experience in making wine.

As soon as Masao Ishihara thought of this, he immediately became a big deal. He originally wanted to use the money he had in his hands to short the yen and make a big profit.

1997 was definitely not a good year for most people. The Asian financial crisis broke out this year and also affected RB.

The US dollar and the Japanese yen will fall all the way. The current exchange rate of the US dollar and the Japanese yen remains at around 1:115. However, by May and June next year, the exchange rate of the US dollar and the Japanese yen will fall to 1:150.

This allows you to make money by lying down, but there are not many opportunities, and it will be fleeting. Once you miss this opportunity in May and June next year, the yen will appreciate against the US dollar and gradually return to the normal exchange rate level of around 1:115.

Masao Ishihara feels that when others go home to inherit the family business, they are all happy, even singing and dancing. When they go home to inherit the family business, they will completely make the future unclear.

The two choices before him are: one is to inherit the family business and save the winery that is on the verge of bankruptcy; the other is to give up inheriting the family business and sell the winery before it goes completely bankrupt and cash it, so as to use the money to leverage and short the yen.

Not only that, he also plans to sell his hometown and land to cash in. The more principal, the more he can earn in the future.

He can completely realize his financial freedom in an instant. He should choose the latter no matter how he chooses. However, he feels that things are not as simple as he thinks.

It’s not that Ishihara Masao is not clear. Even if he clearly tells people that the US dollar will fall to 1:150 against the Japanese yen in May and June next year, no one will believe it.

What's more, I am just a 20-year-old young man. As the saying goes, I have no hair on my lips and can't do things well. This is not only applicable to China, but also to RB.

RB has completely inherited the Confucian system of seniority and seniority. Whether it is the relationship between seniority and juniority of the company, or the system of seniority, it has been developed based on the Confucian system of ideas.

Another thing is that when my father died, he had to sell factories, houses, land and other property. It is not just the traditional values ​​of Eastern people, but even the traditional values ​​of Western people, he would think that the person who did this was a typical prodigal son, not a thing.

When Masao Ishihara thought of this, he raised his right arm and started scratching his head. He stopped and thought again, if he had sold the property a year after his father died, it would have been much better.

Even if you still can't get rid of being called a prodigal son by your relatives and neighbors in your hometown, you can still catch up with the excellent opportunity to short the yen with leverage.

Masao Ishihara always feels that this is an opportunity. If you miss such an excellent opportunity, you can only wait for another 11 years until the global financial crisis broke out in 2008.
