Standalone Tokyo

Chapter 16 Fujiwara Masato has no choice
  Fujiwara Masato was sitting in the living room and looking at the paper on the table. The contract regulations on it were dense and complicated. As an ordinary person, he had to admit after reading it for a while that although he knew the Japanese on it, after putting it together, , he couldn't understand what it meant.

Even if he cannot understand, Fujiwara Masato will not be ashamed of his cultural level, because since he cannot understand, it means that the things in this document are not for him to read, and the person who wrote it deliberately wrote it It is extremely complicated, and it also uses many legal terms. If you have not studied law, you will not be able to understand its specific meaning.

In addition, Fujiwara Masato does not think that his mother Anaka Umeko really borrowed a loan shark from the so-called Oshima Lending Company, because he thinks there is something wrong with the signature. The signature is Anaka Umeko's note, and Fujiwara Masato is convinced that it is She wrote it with her own hand, but Masato Fujiwara had other ideas about her mental state when she wrote the name.

An Zhongmeizi is a drug addict. After taking too much ℃, she will be in a state of ecstasy. At this time, she will most likely not even remember her last name or whether her son is still alive. Get up, if someone at this time asked her to sign her name on a piece of paper and told her that if she signed, she would be given more drugs.

I am afraid that Anzhong Meizi, whose brain is offline at this time, will do it immediately in order to feel more comfortable. And after the drug addiction passes and the person wakes up, she will have no memory at all and will not be able to remember that she was driven by drug addiction. If you ask her to think about what she did, she will only give you a blank look.

In addition, before Anaka Umeko became a Buddha, the Fujiwara family still had some savings. The money was not much, but it was an amount that an ordinary white-collar worker in Tokyo could save after working for a year without eating or drinking. If he hadn't happened to meet Anaka, Nakameiko's funeral and the inheritance tax on the Tokyo house wiped out the money at once.

Otherwise, with this money, Fujiwara Masato can live happily in Tokyo for several years without worrying about food and clothing, and will not have to go to cafes to make money with his face.

Even though An Zhongmeizi is a poisonous insect, she should never borrow loan sharks before her savings are all spent. Even if her family's savings are all gone, she still has cars and houses to buy, and all the things that can be exchanged for money to sell. Before losing her, she had no reason to go to Oshima Lending Company to sign such a contract that could be called a contract of sale.

Loan sharking is legal in Japan, just like legal gangs. Loan sharking companies can be seen everywhere in Tokyo, Japan. There are small advertisements posted on the walls and telephone poles in the streets. During holidays, they will even hire people to make money. Students with pocket money put advertising flyers in the mailboxes at the door of every house.

Such loan shark companies often use unscrupulous means to make profits. The threshold for borrowing is extremely low. There is no need to attach any fixed assets or proof of employment. As long as you provide your personal information and fixed address, you can get as little as tens of thousands of dollars from the loan company. Yen, up to one million yen in cash... Of course, if the amount is large, a guarantor is still needed.

When many Japanese otakus are short of money, they will also go to such a lending company to borrow some emergency money, and then turn to work part-time jobs. After making money, they will repay the loan and interest in full as soon as possible, because if If you don't pay back the money in time, the staff of the loan company who smiled when they gave you the money will be replaced by a new group of people to collect the debt. At that time, their faces will not look good.

Such lending companies are not afraid of you running away. If they dare to do this business, they are naturally confident that they can use some means to get the money back.

What, you said you have no money?
  Oh, don’t you still have someone? It doesn’t matter if you’re not a beauty. Let’s get to know Ocean Fishing. All you need to do is get on that ship and work for our company for one year. As long as you work for one year, we will revoke the contract... What, you said you have never done it? Any fishery training, will you die if you directly go on an offshore fishing vessel?

Oh, you might die on the sea if you get on a fishing boat far away, but if you don’t get on, then you have to die now. Your body organs, your blood, and even your bones can all be sold for money, and all human beings can It's a treasure, brother.

There are unreliable rumors that when the nuclear radiation incident occurred in Fukushima, Japan, the Japanese Self-Defense Forces refused to go to Fukushima. When all the TEPCO staff working at the Fukushima nuclear power plant ran away, the more than 50 people A dead soldier who "voluntarily" went to Fukushima was actually handed over by the Japanese gang to a loan shark slave indentured servant of the Japanese government.

Let’s not talk about whether this rumor is true or false. As long as it is possible and widely recognized by the Japanese, you can know how ruthless Japanese loan sharks are... Even if this thing is legal, the operators are usually still Being a member of a violent gang means that if you accidentally get infected with it, the black and white parties in Japan will stand against you. In this case, the borrower is basically hopeless.

Just like now, if Masato Fujiwara was an ordinary person and his mother was tricked into signing such a loan sharking contract, he would have no other option except selling his house and car at a low price urgently. Optional.

It is even very possible that the Oshima Lending Company deliberately designed Anaka Umeko to owe such a contract after taking a fancy to the Fujiwara family's house, and waited extremely patiently until she died of drug addiction without any evidence. Then he jumped out and prepared to seize the Fujiwara family's house. When Fujiwara Masato sells the house, I'm afraid the only buyers will be people from Oshima Lending Company, playing a trick with nothing.

Fortunately, Fujiwara Masato is not an ordinary person. He has his own way to deal with this matter, but this process may be bloody and several people may die.

However, Masato Fujiwara had no other choice. He could either give up and sell his house to repay this empty debt, or spend money to hire people to buy equipment from the system to solve the problem.

Fujiwara Masato chose the second one.

System, open.

First, Masato Fujiwara began to count the funds he could use.

Fujiwara Masato previously had 19 yen. Due to the cost of hiring Huang Mao, his salary for the past two days, the purchase of a Glock semi-automatic pistol, and his own living expenses during this period, he spent nearly yen, leaving yen.

And Huang Mao just made a fortune last night. Fujiwara Masato received 100,000 yen in cash and a watch of unknown brand, but it was clearly expensive at a glance. The cash totaled 180,000 yen, which was converted into US dollars. It's more than 1,200 yuan.

There was not much money, so Fujiwara Masato immediately changed hands and threw the mechanical watch to the system's prop store for write-off, and got the price for a little more than a thousand US dollars.

This number is definitely not up to the actual value of the watch. Although luxury goods should be heavily discounted when bought second-hand, at this price, Fujiwara Masato knows that the recycling price of the system store is definitely lower than that of the actual second-hand store, but he is in urgent need now. In terms of money situation, and he doesn't know where to find any reliable merchants to sell stolen goods, so let's leave it at that.

With a clang, this watch, which was worth a lot of money in reality, was sold to the system item store for a thousand dollars, which would be about one hundred four thousand one hundred yen in Japanese yen.

Adding up the original money, this amount of money, and the amount of money that Fujiwara Masato is now using for krypton gold, Fujiwara Masato now has more than 2,200 US dollars to use. In addition, he has to remove 35,000 yen. , because you have to set aside your own living expenses and transportation expenses.

After excluding this amount of yen, all the remaining money is charged into the system. The U.S. dollar that Fujiwara Masato can probably control is two thousand U.S. dollars. Is such a large amount of money a lot?
  In reality, if you spend it yourself, it will definitely be a lot, but if you consume it in the system, it will not be much.

Fujiwara Masato opened the system's weapon store. He just glanced at it for a few times and quickly closed it.

Expensive, too expensive. The cheapest submachine gun costs US$14. The standard M semi-automatic rifle for volunteer riflemen costs US$. For Masato Fujiwara’s money, he can use any long gun. You shouldn't think about it, so let's look at the soldiers in the barracks first. Fujiwara Masato would basically ignore those riflemen and assault soldiers at a glance. With his current assets, he could only hire one semi-professional unit...the Volunteer Rifleman.

The hiring price for volunteer riflemen without equipment is US$230, and the daily wage is US$23. Both prices are very affordable. Although the name sounds a bit like a militia, no matter how the volunteer riflemen are, they also have a military character. The word is used as a prefix to the name of the military unit, so he must be better than street gangsters and male villagers.

So, without much hesitation, Fujiwara Masato hired one of them. Soon, the door of his utility room opened from the inside, and a man wearing a black T-shirt and jeans, with firm eyes, neither ugly nor handsome, appeared. He walked out and stood still in front of Fujiwara Masato without saying a word.

Masato Fujiwara started checking his profile.

+Minute Rifleman (Name: Tentative/Level 1)
  Marksmanship: Proficient in the use and maintenance of semi-automatic rifles, submachine guns, and pistols.

Melee: Slightly trained in bayonet fighting.

Physical: I have done a little exercise and have good endurance. I can carry out a two-kilometer run and march in full gear.

Morale: 60.

Skill: Aimed Shooting (Level 1)
  Character description: A militiaman trained as a crash soldier, he can squat in a trench and fire at the enemy. +
  From the description of personal attributes, this volunteer rifleman is not bad and can be used as a line filler. I believe he has the ability to survive for a few days in the trenches of the Russo-Ukrainian War.

As for his name, Masato Fujiwara looked at the rifleman's resolute expression, thought about it, and decided to call him Volunteer No. 1... Sorry, he also wanted to give this soldier a nice name, but Masato Fujiwara didn't know how to do it. He doesn't know much about naming people, especially Japanese names. It's better to use this name that is more like a code name than a name for a while to make a transition.

After hiring Giyu No. 19, Fujiwara Masato still had about yuan left. Considering that the cheapest pistol cost yuan, he bought two Glock semi-automatic pistols and sold them in the weapons store. Each pistol comes with thirty rounds of pistol ammunition. These bullets are enough for now, and Fujiwara Masato does not need to purchase additional ammunition for the time being.

In addition to the original gun, Fujiwara Masato now has three Glock 19s, Huang Mao has one gun, Giyu No. 19 has one, and the remaining Glock is for his own use?
  No, he does not need to be equipped with a gun. Fujiwara Masato knows very well that he has never touched a gun. Without receiving firearms education, it is very dangerous to rashly equip a pistol. He is most likely to be nervous in an emergency. And if used improperly, it is easy to collapse yourself.

So someone still has to find someone to use this gun.

Now Fujiwara Masato has less than a thousand dollars left. He is thinking, does he need to hire another volunteer rifleman?

No, you can't spend all the money at once. The salary of the NPC must be set aside. Secondly, you must also set aside some emergency funds, so that if any emergencies happen, or if you have any urgently needed props, weapons and ammunition that you need to buy, At that time, I still had money.

Therefore, the 230-dollar volunteer army cannot continue to be hired, and the street gangsters... forget it, it is cheaper to hire one yourself than the gangster. It only costs 90 dollars for recruitment, and the daily salary is 9 dollars. Male villager.

The door of the utility room was pushed open again, and this time a middle-aged man wearing a white shirt, a simple face, and a little hunchback came out. When he stood in front of Fujiwara Masato, he did not forget to leave the side. The Yiyu No. 1 was a little further away, and then he shrank his hands in front of his chest, looking at Masato Fujiwara with some uneasiness.

It's really similar, Masato Fujiwara sighed. Although the intelligence of the male villager in front of him is not very good, his performance and temperament are too much like a Japanese farmer who has just left his rural hometown to work in the big city of Tokyo. Look at this. He looks honest and honest, look at the calluses on his rough hands, he is not a farmer, who is a farmer?

+Male villager (name: tentative/first level)
  Marksmanship: Never touched a gun.

Melee: No fights.

Physical: Exercised so intensely that he could dig you up with a hoe all day long.

Morale: 20.

Skill: Woodcutting (Level 3) +
  Well, although he knows that cheap goods are not good, Fujiwara Masato was still surprised by the low value of this male villager. However, the level of his skill "logging" is very high, a full three levels. Does this mean that he Very good at chopping trees with an ax?
  If possible, let him try the axe.

Since you are good at cutting wood, let's call you Ax Ren.

Fujiwara Masato casually decided on the name of the male villager, and then he let the two of them stay in the hall while he went to prepare today's dinner. He hadn't eaten yet and was very hungry.

Oh, by the way, Fujiwara Masato also has to prepare a piece of food for these two people. Although they are NPCs, they also need to eat, drink, and use the toilet. When they stay in the system, Fujiwara Masato has to put some in the system warehouse. Food and clean water will be consumed as time goes by. If there is no food, then they will be hungry, their status will decline, they will become extremely hungry, and they may even desert.

Therefore, in addition to salary, Fujiwara Masato also has to be responsible for the food, drink and diarrhea of ​​these NPCs. He also has to prepare clothes and other daily necessities for them.

Forget it, don't worry about such troubles for now. Let's eat first. Now that we're full, there are still a lot of things to do tonight.
