Chapter 66

It's almost September, and with the weather getting increasingly hot,

Nagayama Naoki's heart for buying land was stirring again.

He had already discussed the details of a mortgage with Nakai Eita. If the shops and disco under his name could be mortgaged again, he could basically try to borrow an additional 150 million yen.

In addition, he currently had over 20 million yen in cash.

And even though the short drama's earnings of 90 million yen would only be distributed at the end of the month, he would have a total of 260 million yen.

Even if he didn't take out a loan in the end, it would still look good.

After calculating everything in his mind, Nagayama Naoki dialed a number he hadn't called in a long time:

"Hello, is this Fujita Keiko-san?"

"Hi, this is Fujita Keiko."

"Keiko-san, it's been a while. This is Nagayama Naoki."

"Ah, it's Naoki-san~" Fujita Keiko sounded very happy, then she seemed to remember something and cautiously asked, "Um, could it be that Naoki-san is thinking of buying a house again?"

After a few interactions, Fujita Keiko felt that Nagayama Naoki was like a private son of the god of wealth, with a continuous flow of money, and whenever he made money, he would definitely come to buy a house, making her a bit conditioned.

"What, can't I call for other reasons?" Nagayama Naoki's mischievous side immediately came out, wanting to tease this young lady.

"Haha, of course, of course~ So, what do you need, Naoki-san?"

Fujita Keiko laughed. As long as it wasn't buying a house, nothing else would surprise her.

"Actually, the shop in Shibuya has been vacant, which is a waste, so I'm thinking of renting it out." Nagayama Naoki said, "Does Keiko-san's company handle rental services?"

"Yes, our company does handle such services, and the Shibuya branch can also do it."

With such a big client like Nagayama Naoki, who had already made deals in various areas, Fujita Keiko felt she could transfer to the headquarters.

"That's good, then I'll leave it to Keiko-san."

Nagayama Naoki paused for a moment,

"Um... actually, there's one more thing,

Your words just now reminded me..."

"What? Does Naoki-san have another need?" Fujita Keiko was still in a good mood from getting a new business.

"Actually," Nagayama Naoki said directly, "the same as last time!"

Fujita Keiko was a bit confused: "The same as what?"

"I do have some idle funds recently... I want to buy an apartment and a shop..."

"Eh?!!!"

"Hi, that's the situation, I'll still be麻烦ing Keiko-san!"

"Please call me if you find suitable properties, whether in Shinjuku or elsewhere."

"I have something to do now, so I'll hang up... bye~"

Nagayama Naoki hung up the phone quickly, like a prank.

Hearing the busy signal, Fujita Keiko, who hadn't reacted yet, had only one thought: "This Naoki-san, he's buying a house again!"

......

Teasing the girl in the morning made Nagayama Naoki feel very happy.

The plan to get rich by buying land was going smoothly, and this good mood continued.

There was still some wrap-up work for "World's Most Mysterious Stories," and the editing of the next few episodes was progressing smoothly.

Nagayama Naoki seemed to be entering another idle period.

Should he consider going out to play?

Nagayama Naoki looked at the scorching sun outside and quickly squashed the idea.

Unless he went to Antarctica to cool off, no one could make him go out!

However, the empty fridge and stomach forced him to change his mind.

The stomach is the most important, so he had to brave the scorching sun and go to the nearby supermarket.

In the summer, he didn't want to eat too hot food, so he bought a lot of sushi and cold dishes.

He also didn't forget to buy cold drinks and ice cream.

Quickly returning home under the sun, he stuffed the fridge full and felt a sigh of relief.

Lunch, of course, was sushi. The ready-made sushi he just took from the refrigerated shelf was still cold, paired with chilled beer, it was simply refreshing.

After eating, he took a cold shower, as if washing away all the heat.

......

Eating an ice cream, blowing the fan, and listening to the newly bought stereo,

"Indeed, staying at home in the summer is the best~" Nagayama Naoki complained, making the office workers wish they could trade places with him,

"During the shooting, it felt just as busy as work...... sigh...... there's always so little rest time......

When can I live a life of fields, mats, fans, watermelons, and dogs, that kind of life I long for~"

Eh, Nagayama Naoki suddenly remembered a similar variety show called "Aspiration Life."

This seemed like a good idea, but he didn't know if the Japanese audience would accept it.

He could discuss it with Yashimura Daikichi and others to see if it had potential.

Suddenly, a noisy sound came from downstairs:

"Kazuya, Echida, what are you dawdling! Hurry up and follow..."

"Shizuka, come help carry the water basin~" "Yeah, can't you see how heavy it is~"

"What are you saying, can't you carry so many tools..."

The noise made Nagayama Naoki curious. This was the third floor.

Standing on the balcony and looking down,

Three elementary school students were shouting loudly downstairs,

Two of them were carrying a large water basin, and one was carrying many rod-like tools...

What are they doing? Fishing? Why bring a large wooden basin? Or are they making a small boat? Or having a water fight...

The three energetic children below were noisy and wouldn't stop, and Nagayama Naoki's mind was filled with one idea after another. Who could understand the thoughts of elementary school students during summer vacation?

Until the door of an old house on the other side of the road suddenly opened,

An old man with white hair and wearing old clothes shouted from inside the door:

"You three brats are so noisy! You woke me up from my nap, do you know that!! If you don't leave, you'll see what happens!!"

This shout instantly silenced the three children, who immediately tried to sneak away obediently,

But the leader was quite bold and turned back to make a face, looking even more energetic,

Seemingly exhausted by the shout, the old man downstairs lost his energy and quietly closed the door.

The courtyard of the old house was overgrown with weeds, in stark contrast to the summer flowers in the neighboring courtyard.

He probably didn't have the energy to take care of it anymore,

One young, one old, one new, one fading, just like the two courtyards.

Nagayama Naoki upstairs felt a bit sentimental, is this the cycle of life?

Suddenly, memories flashed uncontrollably,

The same summer, the same three elementary school students on summer vacation, the same stubborn old man,

And a courtyard overgrown with weeds, just like the one downstairs...

A movie Nagayama Naoki had seen before, "Summer Garden," came to mind.
