To shoulder her burden, those words were enough to make Haruno lt.

Yukinoshita might have been burdened by those who didn't understand her and the isolation that she experienced at school. At the sa ti, many often compared her to her older sister, belittling her subconsciously as if no matter how hard the work she had done, it wasn't enough.

anwhile, Haruno, despite her smile, and how she had always appeared like she was the chosen one, the heroine of the story, only she knew what kind of a heavyweight that she had to bear for every mont.

So, while it was a bit despicable, sotis, she felt envious of Yukinoshita and wished to be in her place.

Unfortunately, Yukinoshita wasn't so capable and was just a smart bookworm, but the rest?

Hahaha.

"But, a business, huh?"

Tobe had made one, the cafe that he had bought before, but instead of a business, he had intended to use that place for his location to have a secret rendezvous with Yuki-san.

He would probably also use that place to launder his money.

After all, it was common sense to use a legal business to launder your dirty money, right?

So, where would he get this dirty money?

Yakuza?

Or those gangs?

Then again, instead of an illegal business, it was better to have a legal one, as it was easier to manage and good for the image, too, especially if he aid to beco the governor of Chiba Prefecture.

Still—

"Have you thought about what business you want to do?" Tobe asked curiously.

If one ca from a normal family, he definitely wouldn't advise them to do a business, after all, whether one wanted to admit it or not, a business was risky and it was also tiring.

If one wanted to relax, it was better to work under others, especially the governnt, as it was stable and as one had beco part of the system, as long as the country wasn't destroyed, then everything would be okay.

anwhile, being a business ant that you are your own responsibility.

If one were successful, then it would be good as they could get a lot of money, but if one failed?

It was a good thing that one didn't commit suicide.

Tobe had seen many people who had decided to commit suicide as their businesses were bankrupt and they were under a heavy debt, losing everything.

Still, was it ant to say that one should stop doing business?

No.

If one is brave and has the willingness, then go for it, but one should be ready for the consequences, too, and ready for the hard work.

After all, those who had beco billionaires and or even millionaires, one had only seen when they were at their brightest, or they happened to be the second generation, but regardless, as Haruno ca from a wealthy family, it was okay for her to do business.

Then again, what business could one do in this country that was simply stagnant after the Lost Decade?

"I don't know." Haruno shook her head and said, "That's why I am asking you."

"...." Tobe and Shiori.

The two of them thought that Haruno had a certain groundbreaking idea, yet unexpectedly, she ca up with no ideas.

"If you were in my position, what kind of business would you do?" Haruno asked curiously.

If Shinra were in her position and beca the heir of the Yukinoshita family, what kind of business would he do?

"Usury."

"...." Haruno and Shiori.

"If I were in your place, I would make an app on the smartphone where people can borrow money."

Financial technology.

This was the path that he would choose if he were in Haruno's place. After all, money lending was a stable business, and he would definitely get so money. If one didn't pay money, they would be sent to beco a miner, a fisherman, or have their organs sold.

Anyway, there were many ways to make people pay their money, and as the Yukinoshita family was in the construction company, Tobe was sure that they had more or less a connection with yakuza or a certain group of people that worked in the background, or the gray area.

If so, then he would directly make a paynt app platform where one could use it as a bank, paynt processing, which could be connected to many things, such as water and electric utilities, and also money lending.

As for the interest, it could be high, especially when usury was legal in this country.

By then, when the app beca popular, he would expand to a marketplace, cloud computing, online services, and many others!

"...."

Yet, hearing Shinra's explanation, Haruno and Shiori trembled as they had never expected that his idea would be so groundbreaking, and if he were successful, they could imagine that he would be the controller of this country behind the scenes.

As everyone owed him, this country was as good as his!

"...I can see the future of a villain is born in my place," Shiori said with a sigh. "What should I do? What if a superhero cos to catch my man?" Yet, her eyes betrayed her as they beca even more obsessed with him.

"....." Tobe.

"H-How about another first? The scale is too big and I don't think that I can manage it."

"Then, real estate app?"

"Real estate app?!" Haruno was surprised, then asked curiously, "Will all the businesses that you have said will be related to a smartphone app?"

"Yes." Tobe nodded.

"But doesn't an internet app have a lot of investnt?"

"It's true."

"Then...?"

"But with your family na, you can ask many to invest in you. As long as you have an idea, people will invest."

"Why?"

Facing Haruno's frown, Tobe said, "Because you are Yukinoshita."

"...."

"You are from a good family, and with that background, no matter what you do, you will be more or less successful."

"...I don't like that idea."

"Don't hate it. You should be happy with it and proud that you are the Yukinoshita, since many are envious of your position. Moreover, your parents have been working hard to keep your family successful when many families of high position like yours have fallen, so what you need to do is to keep the legacy."

Even if one was born in a big family, it didn't an that everyone was guaranteed.

Whether one wanted to or not, they could fall at any mont, and when one was at the top, they could die at any mont.

Even many big companies that everyone thought would be impossible to go bankrupt have also gone bankrupt.

If Tobe gave an example, it would be like the Dutch East India Company (VOC), established in 1602, which was the world's first multinational corporation and is often cited as the richest company in history, with a peak valuation estimated at $7.9 trillion USD.

Yet, despite this, the company had gone bankrupt.

Many noble families that had been living comfortably were destroyed during the Lost Decade, the mont this country started to fall, and naturally, Tobe was sure that the Yukinoshita family was also included.

Yet despite this, the Yukinoshita family didn't fall.

Why was that?

It was because their father, who was a diet mber, that their construction company had a stable inco from many governnt projects, including streets, buildings, and many others.

Haruno also knew that, and she also knew what kind of sacrifice her mother had made to keep their family, and this was also the reason why she did the sa.

"But if I were in your place, what kind of business would I do?"

Now, Haruno had accepted her identity and was also proud of it, but at the sa ti, she also had to bear the responsibility of it.

This was also the reason why she didn't dare to make a hasty move, and thought, if she were in Tobe's case, what would she do?

Unlike Haruno, who ca from a wealthy and influential family, Tobe's family was just above average, and if he were asked to start a business, what kind of business would he do?

Tobe thought for a while and gave his answer, "A ga."

"Ga?"

Yup, if he were asked what kind of business he would make, he would say a gaming company.
