Chapter 1347: Next Step (1/2)

Inside the car, they were talking to each other, but then Seri couldn't help but say that the development of his investment bank wouldn't be smooth.

”I can see that too, but don't stop,” Haru said while resting his chin on his hand and his index finger tapped his cheek slowly, rhythmically.

Kirari smiled and said, ”So you have found the problem?”

”Rich people are troublesome and I have touched their cake, so it is normal for them to try to hinder me before, but then again, I am not easily defeated.” Haru smiled and said, ”Let's change the target.”

”Change the target?”

”Sorry, I phrased it wrong, I mean, let's add the target,” Haru said.

”Wait! Wait! You're going to talk about business secrets again, right? Is it alright to do it here?” Sora quickly stopped him.

”It's alright.” Ritsu smiled and said, ”As long as I am here, there won't be any people who will eavesdrop on our conversation.”

”....”

The girls felt a bit speechless by Ritsu's confidence, but they didn't think too much since they knew that this girl was a genius regarding machines and IT-related matters.

Haru closed his eyes and thought for a while before he said, ”Let's slow down for a bit. I won't talk about my plan first, but my plan to build an investment bank won't stop, and lastly, Kirari, can you introduce me to the people on that side?”

Kirari raised her eyebrows, but then she quickly calmed herself. ”It's a crime to add the money of the people from Yakuza.”

”!!!”

”Do you want to have a connection with yakuza?!”

The girls were startled when they heard Kirari's words.

”Not the Yakuza, but the pachinko parlor owners,” Haru said. He had opened a pachinko parlor in All Might's world together with Tsunade before, after all, so he knew very well how huge this industry was.

”Pachinko?” Kirari's eyes brightened and nodded. ”Don't worry, I'll set up a meeting with them as soon as possible.” Her family's business was in both black and white and her family had a lot of connection with yakuza or rather, half of the branch family of Momobami Clan was a yakuza after all.

”Pachinko, huh?” Seri thought for a while and didn't say anything immediately.

”Why do you want to meet pachinko parlor owners?” Utaha asked.

”It is because they have money,” Haru said simply. He told them that most banks would have prejudice about pachinko parlor owners since they usually related to yakuza and the money from yakuza was illegal so the bank would avoid it.

However, the pachinko parlor was different since it was legal and its market was huge.

Haru knew that it would take a very long time for him to build his investment bank even if had the help of Erina's, his grandfather, and Kirari's family.

”Does pachinko parlor really make money?” Sora raised her eyebrow and didn't believe it.

”Ritsu, how much do people in this country spend on pachinko every year?” Haru asked directly.

”200 billion U.S. dollars,” Ritsu said simply.

”....”

Erina, Utaha, Sora, and Megumi were stunned.

Even if Erina's family was rich, however, her family was nowhere close to 200 billion U.S. dollars.

Haru also explained that the size of the pachinko market was even bigger than the city of sin, Las Vegas which caused them to startle and shock since in their minds the largest gambling business would be in Las Vegas, but didn't expect that it would be in their country.

”Seri, I know that I have troubled you with a lot of things and you have been very busy. I am very grateful to you and very happy that you're working for me,” Haru said.
