Chapter 1261 Another Couple
Ning Weimin and Qingzi are both awake and happy.
In this dazzling Japanese society, in this current bubble era full of desires.
The luckiest thing for them is that they have not become slaves captured by money and desire.
They understand each other’s meaning of love, the essence of life, and their own weight, and will seriously consider how to protect these most precious things.
This is really not easy.
In fact, most people, in this world full of indulgence and wealth, are immersed in the confusion of desire and unable to extricate themselves, becoming idiots who lack self-control and self-awareness.
Even people like Ning Weimin and others, who clearly understand these principles, often lack the ability and strength to do the right thing, so they can only follow the trend and become poor people crushed by the times.
If you don’t believe it, just look at another newlywed couple.
Sakai Yujiro and Sakai Miyoko, this couple should have been as happy as they are, but when Kagawa Rinko was out, they had a tit-for-tat confrontation in the house they had just bought not long ago because of financial problems.
The young couple had a dispute over their recent situation of not being able to make ends meet. They were at odds for the first time, and even laid hidden dangers for their relationship.
"Husband, we really don’t have much money at home. Take a good look at the accounts I kept. We are having a wedding in the revolving restaurant of the New Otani Hotel. The cost of the wedding banquet is at least 30,000 yen per person. I In the end, I asked my previous customers to help me get some cheap honeydew melons as a return gift. In the end, each of us spent 34,200 yen, including a total of more than 90 customers on both sides. A total of 3.5 million yen was spent on scattered expenses. There were also bills from the wedding company for various items such as makeup, wedding dress, emcee, photography, flowers, vehicles, and drivers, which amounted to 200,000 or 300,000 yen. All added up, the total is 1.8 million yen. The wedding ceremony totaled 5.3 million yen, and the gift money we got back was less than 3 million yen. We lost 2.3 million yen. We also had a honeymoon trip, and thanks to President Ning’s favor, Yamato Tourism gave us the lowest discount. Our six-day, four-night honeymoon package in Hawaii only cost 500,000 yen. Yes, we spent a lot of money in Hawaii. We spent an additional 400,000 yen on meals and shopping. Especially you, you never refuse anything recommended by others, and you tip generously. You really treat yourself like this. We are rich. We also provided food, accommodation, tickets, travel in Tokyo, and buying gifts for my mother-in-law and others to attend our wedding. If we include the additional furniture we bought for the wedding, we also paid 500,000 yen. And electrical appliances, then..."
Faced with her husband Yujiro Sakai who was asking for money, Miyoko, who was already a married woman, reported the accounts carefully one by one, and explained her dilemma aggrievedly.
However, Yujiro Sakai, whose machismo is deeply rooted in his bones, has no such patience.
"Okay, don't talk so much. These account details give me a headache. Wife, I know you are a good wife who is diligent and thrifty. You are trying your best to save every expense and be a good person. The finance minister of the family. But marriage is a big deal in life, so it’s not a sin for us to be extravagant, right? Why should we be so stingy about traveling abroad? What’s more, I really don’t have time to spend time with you tonight. That’s all. Now I just ask you, do you have 200,000 yen for me?”
Miyoko obviously did not accept her husband's arrogant remarks, and stared at Yujiro Sakai's face with a pair of big eyes reproachfully.
"Why does socializing require so much money? And shouldn't the company pay for the socializing expenses? Why should we take money from home?
"Oh, you are so naive. Not all social expenses can be reimbursed. Just like playing mahjong..."
When Yujiro Sakai said such words, the dissatisfaction in Miyoko's eyes became more obvious.
You know, the reason why Miyoko was willing to marry Zuo Hai in the first place Yujiro, because he values his hard work and hard work, does not engage in drinking, sex and gambling.
But now her husband actually plays mahjong, which she didn't expect, and of course she wasn't happy.
In order not to further expand the conflict between husband and wife, Yujiro Sakai couldn't help but paused when he noticed the change in his wife's attitude.
Immediately started the mode of reporting good news but not bad news, and tried to persuade from another angle.
This is the consistent attitude he adopts when a senior salesperson encounters a problem.
Observing words and emotions is the basic skill of sales.
"Don't be angry first. To be honest, two guys, Hideo Ninomiya and Yasuo Nagase, made an appointment with me today. They said they wanted to introduce me to their senior. The other person worked at Mizuho Securities. I heard that he had just bought a new house and he wanted to meet me. I bought a sports car and wanted to buy some health insurance. This was a completely unexpected good thing for me, and they also said that I didn’t have to worry about the cost of drinking and dining, and they would use the company’s social expenses to pay for it. But the problem is that they all like to play mahjong. It is said that they have developed the habit when they were in college in Qingying. Do you think I can refuse? , Of course I have to accompany you..."
Miyoko thought for a long time and finally changed her silent attitude.
"How much does your insurance contract cost? How much commission can you get?"
But the problem is, Zuo Hai Yujiro's response made this matter stir up trouble again.
"I estimate that the other party will spend about 1.6 million yen. I am now the director of the organization, so I should be able to get a commission of 100,000 yen..."
"What, a commission of 100,000 yen? Do you want to exchange it for 200,000 yen? I said, husband, if you do this, wouldn't it be a loss-making business?"
"Oh, what are you talking about. These two One hundred thousand yen is just a spare, I will definitely not be stupid enough to lose it all. Besides, you don’t know anything. I think back when I first came to Tokyo to make bread, how did I win the sales championship in the branch? It was because I secretly increased the filling of the batch of bean filling bread that I was responsible for delivering several times. The same goes for the jam bread, and I baked it in a separate oven. Not only did I sell these special breads, they were sold out every time. , even the bakery factories that were originally competitors have come to join our factory. Therefore, the secret to sales is to provide customers with benefits. Otherwise, how can we maintain stable performance? The key to being a customer is like us. It’s about maintaining a long-term relationship and not rushing into it. I know you did a good job selling your house, but I’m not afraid you won’t like it. That’s because your industry suddenly changed. This is just luck, not strength.”
It can be said that Yujiro Sakai is indeed a senior salesman, both in terms of shrewdness and eloquence.
He used his past stories and succeeded in convincing Miyoko.
“Okay, okay, I understand. But husband, I still hope you will have less contact with these two people in the future. I really don’t like their behavior. They look very frivolous, eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. They love everything, just like two playboys. No wonder Rinzi dislikes the person you introduced. If you always stay with them, I'm really afraid that you will..."
"Hey, you are really worrying about it. In fact, I am helpless. Who knows that Hideo is the son of the Minister of the Second Palace? Rinko's rejection of this marriage has made it difficult for me to do it in front of the Minister. If I am more indifferent to his son , but there is no good thing to eat. If the minister cares about me so much, he can't become an enemy in the future, right? And you have to know that my so-called director of the organization is just the best of the insurance company. They are just grassroots cadres. In addition to being mainly responsible for recruiting and training qualified insurance salespeople outside and helping them cultivate a fixed customer base, they are also responsible for the insurance sales business themselves. Our insurance company’s sales results will be reviewed at the end of each month. To sum it up. It would be very embarrassing if my performance was surpassed by my subordinates. From this point of view, I can't push out the customers who have been kindly introduced to me, right? You have also been in sales, so you should. Can you understand my pressure? In short, I have to take a long-term view. People like Hideo Ninomiya and Yasuo Nagase are elites in Keio. If I maintain a good relationship with them, they will continue to introduce customers to me in the future. He will also speak for me in the company. It will be of great benefit to my future development..."
Sakai Yujiro continued to lecture endlessly, either complaining, expressing misery, or empathizing, which made me even more excited. Miyoko lost her temper and turned around to get money for him.
"Okay, okay, your complaints are no less than what I said. You won't listen to anything I say. I can't do anything to you. Here, I'll give you the money, two hundred thousand yen is Right? "
Miyoko put the money in front of her husband, but when he reached out, she suddenly held his hand and looked into his eyes seriously.
“But I would also like to remind you that if you took away the 200,000 yen, the family’s savings will now be less than 500,000 yen. In addition to paying the monthly mortgage, we also need to support our lives. And all kinds of unavoidable entertainment. Don't you forget, we are going to attend President Ning's wedding tomorrow, so we have to pay 50,000 yen as a gift, so I beg you, this kind of thing will not happen. You can show up again, otherwise life will really be impossible. Don’t think that we have any financial savings left. In fact, the joint savings we have worked hard to save over the past few years have been depleted. In addition, I hope you can consider it. For a moment, if you allow me to continue going to work, it will definitely help the current situation..."
Miyoko definitely thinks about the family, and her suggestions are also very pragmatic.
However, the blindly confident Zuo Hai Yujiro does not want his wife to show up in public again. "Oh, I'm really scared of you. Why do you still want to go to work? You are married, and your main responsibility in the future is to take care of this family. Yes, even though the wedding, honeymoon trip, furniture for the new home, and all kinds of daily entertainment are all spent It’s a savings for both of us, but at least now we have our own house, and we can still afford food and clothing with my income. It’s not like you don’t know how the salesperson’s income is. Why are you so unreasonable? I said, the half-year bonus will be distributed soon, and we will be better off by then. I expect that I will get it at least six to seven hundred thousand by the end of the year. At that time, it was no big deal for me to get eight or nine hundred thousand. This is not counting the commission. Think about it, this shortfall at home is nothing. When the time comes, I will use the bonus and commission all at once. I can make up for it for you, will you still worry about it with a few million yen..."
"Really, there will be so much?"
Miyoko even though I felt a little disappointed that I couldn't work, but I couldn't help but look forward to Yujiro Sakai's assurance.
After all, Yujiro Sakai is now considered a formal employee of the insurance company, and his treatment is not the same as before.
"Of course, you think I get up early every day and work hard day and night. So, Miyoko, please don't be so grumbling, okay? I know this matter has caused you some trouble. But you You also have to think about who I am doing this for? There are some temporary difficulties now, but it doesn't matter if we suffer a little now. This is all for the sake of becoming a branch leader in the future. As long as my performance is good. , I can become a branch manager. As long as I become a branch manager, there will no longer be any financial problems in our lives. The branch manager is amazing. He is at the same level as the branch president of the bank and gets a lot of money. , the basic salary is five hundred thousand yen. Remember, I am your blue chip stock, I am your NTT, why don’t you want to sell me..."
Sakai Yujiro kept telling his wife Miyoko. Guarantee.
However, Miyoko, who knew very well that he liked to exaggerate, did not dare to believe the pie he painted, and instead poured cold water on it.
"Stop talking nonsense. You are a blue chip stock! Stop bragging. You are clearly thinking that you are President Ning."
"Haha, can't I pursue something a little bit? President Ning himself is self-made. Why can't I if he can do it? I really can't say for sure. Who said that the branch head is the end of my career? As long as I It is not an unattainable dream to be able to achieve this in a few years and then be promoted to sales director or branch deputy general manager. You see how majestic the second house minister is. I want you to live the life of a noble lady in the future. Let everyone call you the Minister's Wife when they meet you. You won't treat me like this today..."
Sakai Yujiro became more and more proud as he talked, and he couldn't help bragging.
But Miyoko really has no intention of spoiling him.
There are still a lot of things to be busy with at home, and I know that he will definitely be drunk again when he comes back at night.
So while he was still awake and free, I quickly gave him a few important words.
"Okay, okay, don't dream about your success. Let's be honest. Don't drink too much tonight, and don't come back too late. Don't forget that tomorrow we will go to the Okura Hotel to attend the Ning Society. The wedding..."
"Oh, I was so happy, but you are really disappointing. Okay, okay, I will try my best."
"Also, I will go to Okura tomorrow. Restaurants should also consider the occasion and never ask for insurance business when meeting strangers. This will make President Ning and Miss Keiko lose face. The same goes for Mr. Taniguchi and Mrs. Taniguchi. Don't let it happen. Relatives and friends are fed up with us, thinking that we are going to sell insurance when we meet people..."
"Why do you suddenly say such things? I know, it's really verbose."
Needless to say, Miyoko. Although his words made sense, they were not listened to and caused considerable embarrassment to Yujiro Sakai.
So much so that he had no intention of staying at home after collecting the money, and left the house as quickly as possible as if running away.
When he came outside, after lighting a cigarette, Zuo Hai Yujiro couldn't help but kicked the telephone pole on the roadside hard.
Yes, Miyoko is a good wife who is willing to share joys and sorrows.
The problem is that no matter how successful you are, she will not admire you.
Zuo Hai Yujilang now suddenly realized sadly that even if one day he could really be admired by everyone and achieve the same career achievements as Ning Weimin.
But in the eyes of his wife, he will still be a poor man who sells insurance everywhere, and his income is far less than hers.
Others treat you with respect and will not openly express their objections to you.
As for his wife Miyoko, she will always call him by her first name and show him off whenever she wants.
As a man's desire, he cannot realize it in his wife.
For example, he would not take his wife to a five-star hotel, or have the enthusiasm to take her to a secret place to have sex.
No matter how much money he has, if he goes to a high-end restaurant to eat, his wife will only be in two states.
One is to accuse the food of being bad and expensive.
The other is to accept it calmly.
Miyoko will never say thank you to him shyly like she did before she got married, and look at him with surprise and say, you know why.
Now he is married and has a family, but he has lost his interest and pride.
This damn marriage!
Why! Why can't he be as lucky as Ning Weimin. What do you want?
That guy is obviously just a Chinese, but he has the most charming woman, who is better than him in every way!
How abominable!
