Ashikaga Yoshimitsu was already drunk. There were seven or eight sake bottles on the table. He could indeed drink quite a bit, but Lu Ming didn't drink much.
"Amin, Mr. Commissioner! I thank you, but when I see you, I hate myself! Because I know that Erika is not your principal wife, my little princess, who was originally loved by everyone..." Ashikaga Yoshimitsu suddenly burst into tears and beat his chest hard, "I hate myself! Hate..."
He fell flat on the table, muttering "I hate..." but gradually became silent.
"Ask the boss lady to bring a blanket so we can rest for a while before we leave." Lu Ming said to the outside.
After a while, the proprietress came in with a blanket and carefully helped Ashikaga Yoshimitsu put it on, but she looked at Lu Ming with a strange look.
Lu Ming sat for a while, then got up from the tatami, put on his shoes, and pulled aside the curtain to come out. He saw that the seats in the outer room were filled with Japanese warriors, all wearing black samurai uniforms, eating and drinking. Except for the sound of chewing, the izakaya was completely silent. It was a very strange scene.
The young man in the baseball cap who had been standing outside the private room had his hand on his waist with a serious expression.
Lu Ming ignored them and waved to the bar. The proprietress in a floral kimono came running over and said, "Sir, what do you need?"
"I want to see Fury." Lu Ming smiled slightly.
The proprietress's expression changed slightly and she said, "Fury?"
Lu Ming said, "I know, he is your husband. You got married not long ago. I am his creditor now. If he hides from me, I can only sue him in court. Here, show him." He took a copy of the letter from the guy in the baseball cap next to him and handed it to him. He said, "I will wait here for half an hour."
Less than half an hour after Lu Ming returned to the private room, he heard footsteps outside. "Commissioner Zhang, I'm Mr. Fury's friend. I'm here to talk to Commissioner Zhang about his debt problem."
"Please let him in." Lu Ming responded.
The door curtain was opened, and a burly man in a blue kimono came in. He had a slightly round face, a typical Japanese appearance.
"Mr. Commissioner, I'm Qinglong!" He bowed slightly, knelt down across the table, stared at Lu Ming with a sharp gaze, "Mr. Commissioner, I like to be straightforward, so please give me a price, a number, how to settle Mr. Fury's debt."
Lu Ming smiled, "It's clearly written on the document that the debt transferred to me was 75% of the assets of Kelai Daily Chemicals. Although Kelai Daily Chemicals is gone, the so-called Rizhao New District that is being developed now belongs to Kelai Daily Chemicals. Fury can't think that he has unconditionally inherited the land just because his father was the former chairman of Kelai Daily Chemicals. It's just that the original debtor, considering his friendly relationship with the Fury family, lent money to Fury's father out of kindness and wanted to help him. Later, he would not embarrass Fury to ask him for the debt. But now it's different. The land has development value. The original debtor remembered his debt and happened to have a debt dispute with me. Therefore, he transferred the creditor's rights to Kelai Daily Chemicals to me."
Qinglong listened quietly, and then said: "Mr. Commissioner, I still say the same thing, please give me a price list. In addition, I am familiar with Kawashima Ken, the member of the Entertainment Management Committee of the Municipal Council, and maybe I can help the Red Rose Hotel get a new gambling license."
"Gambling cards?" Lu Ming shook his head. "That has nothing to do with me. As for the debt problem..." Lu Ming thought for a moment. "Fifty million."
Qinglong's face suddenly darkened. "I saw in the documents that the original creditor lent only tens of thousands of yuan to Mr. Fury's father. In my opinion, it was just a friendly help. It was Mr. Fury's father who had to use 75% of the shares of Kelai Daily Chemical as collateral because the two were good friends. Mr. Fury's father was at the end of his rope at the time and didn't want the charity of his good friend, so he used so many shares as collateral. I don't think the original creditor took it seriously at all. Mr. Fury's father soon went bankrupt, and the original creditor didn't ask Mr. Fury's father for the money. It can be seen that neither of them regarded this debt as a real creditor-debtor relationship. Before Mr. Fury died, he had paid off all his debts one after another. I think he left this world very cleanly. Why should Mr. Commissioner shame the dead?"
Lu Ming nodded: "I think your judgment is correct, and you are very eloquent. However, I still say that I own 75% of the land in Kelai Rihua. I think the court will also think that my claim is reasonable."
Tens of thousands of Japanese people immigrated to Shengjing. Naturally, they made detailed plans. They would not rashly colonize a piece of land just because it had no owner. They even found Fury and gave him a gentle Japanese wife.
But there was a little episode between Fury's previous generation that they didn't expect.
Indeed, the original debtor never pursued the Fury family for the debt.
Qinglong's face was gloomy. "Moreover, Mr. Commissioner, the debt dispute of the Griffinni people belongs to the past. Many of them took advantage of others and their assets were not obtained legally. They even intended to rebel. The special court has abolished many Western regulations, and too many Westerners have been convicted. Therefore, the debt dispute you mentioned may not be supported by the new court."
Lu Ming smiled and said, "On the contrary, the original creditor who transferred the debt was a watch shop owner. Before the riot, he had applied to become a citizen of Montenegro. Therefore, he is protected by the laws of Montenegro. I'm afraid Fury won't be able to default on his debt."
He glanced at Qinglong and said, "You are the president of the Shengjing branch of the Black Dragon Society, and you hold a high position. But I don't think you can make the decision on this matter."
Qinglong's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he said coldly: "Mr. Commissioner, I respect you very much, and I hope you will not make me lose my respect for you."
Lu Ming picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. "So what if you don't respect me? Are you going to kill me here?"
Qinglong gritted his teeth and said, "I'm leaving now!" He bowed slightly, stood up, and strode out.
"Come and help Mr. Yiman, we're going back!" Lu Ming said.
The guy in the baseball cap hurried in and helped up Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, who was drunk and unconscious.
Granny Tuolong, at some point, stood in the corner.
Lu Ming and his companions had just walked out of the private room when they saw the warriors in black kimonos outside suddenly stand up and gather around them.
Qinglong's face turned pale, but he still waved his hand and asked them to make way.
"Kill!" Suddenly, a short warrior in a black kimono who was squeezed in the front rushed out with a short sharp blade in his hand, and stabbed Lu Ming's lower abdomen with the blade in his hand.
Qinglong, who was standing in front of the crowd, reacted very quickly. He hugged the small warrior and both of them fell heavily to the side.
"What are you doing!" Qinglong looked very unhappy. Someone from the side came to help and snatched the short blade from the short warrior.
This was obviously not a drama arranged by Qinglong. He could not even hide the horror in his eyes. If the Black Mountain Commissioner was really killed here so blatantly, it was conceivable that either the Black Dragon would encounter a devastating blow from Kyoto to quell the anger of the Black Mountain people, or the Black Mountain people and the Japanese troops stationed in this northern region would trigger the danger of a full-scale war.
It would be fine if it were just the Montenegrins, but the Montenegrin Special Region is a member of the Eastern Economic Union. Although it is an economic union, it has a collective defense mechanism.
If it is a naked provocation by an external party, it will easily trigger the implementation of its collective defense clause.
In the northern region, the Kingdom of Japan does not want to trigger a comprehensive deterioration and fierce competition with the Eastern Economic Alliance before it has established a firm foothold.
It is precisely because of this that Qinglong is so frightened.
Lu Ming ignored this seemingly dangerous change and walked out leisurely.
The Japanese warriors were no longer paying attention to him at this moment, and they all went to see what was happening.
