Yukinoshita's Correction Method

If it only involves the development of Cloud Snow Tea, then it's merely a strategic choice.

However, considering the needs of the Yukinoshita Family, and the wedding date of Dong Yunshan and Yukino Yukinoshita...

If it can develop very quickly, Cloud Snow Tea cannot develop too slowly.

After all, choosing rapid expansion requires financing.

What investors want is simply an independent, clean, and high-potential new consumer brand.

Given the current cooperative relationship between Dong Yunshan and Haruno Yukinoshita, and considering the Yukinoshita Family's construction company and political background, in order to avoid their money becoming a blood bag for the Yukinoshita Family, virtually no one will be willing to invest in Cloud Snow Tea before it truly becomes independent.

Aside from the interests of the Yukinoshita Family.

Needless to say, the political sphere is another matter.

Upstream developers and financial institutions, as well as integrated design firms and engineering consulting companies, are naturally willing to invest in the Yukinoshita Family.

Parallel material and equipment companies, such as steel and cement, heavy equipment, elevator and escalator manufacturers, and precast component manufacturers, are naturally happy to add another layer of cooperation.

Downstream companies responsible for large-scale professional projects such as earthwork, piling, steel structure, concrete, exterior walls, and waterproofing, as well as small and medium-sized enterprises responsible for steel bar processing, formwork construction, and machinery installation, will certainly not miss the opportunity to narrow the gap.

Therefore, Yukinoshita Family's construction company, like other construction companies, also faces a cash flow problem.

However, with a single call and a hundred responses, providing sufficient investment to support the expansion of Cloud Snow Tea is entirely within their capabilities.

To achieve high profits, financing is necessary.

To successfully raise funds, you either need to sever ties with the Yukinoshita Family and then seek other investments.

Either they become deeply integrated with the Yukinoshita Family and accept investment from interest groups related to the Yukinoshita Family.

It seems like there are options.

However, considering the relationship between Dong Yunshan and Yukino Yukinoshita...

"Why isn't this over yet?" Shizuka Hiratsuka frowned. "We're all out to relax, let's chat for a bit and then call it a day."

"We didn't even say much," Haruno Yukinoshita protested softly. "Right, Yunshan? You haven't said anything yet."

Yukino Yukinoshita bit her lower lip and turned to look at Dong Yunshan behind her.

Chu~

Dong Yunshan kissed her on the cheek. "What can we do about the low profit margin?"

Caught off guard Yukino Yukinoshita's mouth dropped open in astonishment. Her eyes flickered, and a gentle smile curved her lips, "Let's do it that way."

Tilting her head slightly, Yukino Yukinoshita kissed Dong Yunshan's lips.

If Dong Yunshan wants to be with Yukino Yukinoshita better and faster, he needs a high profit margin, which requires accepting investment from the Yukinoshita Family and becoming deeply tied to the Yukinoshita Family.

But the two of them are doing very well now.

That's fine then.

"Eh!" Shizuka Hiratsuka stared in disbelief.

We were having a good chat, why did it stop?

They kissed before I could even look at them.

"..." Haruno Yukinoshita pressed her temples as if she had a headache. "Is that all? I thought you could at least say something interesting."

In the end, it was just a simple kiss between the couple.

There's a kind of naivety in them that suggests they're not afraid of any difficulties if they face them together.

Yukino Yukinoshita a dream, stopped talking in time, adjusted her sitting position on Dong Yunshan's lap, turned to the side and buried her face in the crook of his neck.

"Oh, right, I haven't told you my thoughts yet." Dong Yunshan gently stroked Yukino Yukinoshita's soft back. "My thoughts are a bit... well, unbelievable. That's why I haven't mentioned them before. Even if I say them now, it sounds like a fantasy."

"Oh?" Haruno Yukinoshita became interested and sat up slightly. "With such achievements, your words already carry a lot of weight."

Even if the content is unbelievable, considering the current development of Cloud Snow Tea, it is very convincing when said by Dong Yunshan.

"I'm the kind of person who enjoys the process more, because it's easy for me to imagine the ending." A hint of melancholy appeared in Dong Yunshan's eyes, and as Yukino Yukinoshita gently twisted in his arms, that melancholy vanished in an instant. "For example, after proposing the idea of opening a shop, I already thought of the final form of Cloud Snow Tea)."

Shizuka Hiratsuka was taken aback. "Final FormRide?!"

"It has nothing to do with Kamen Rider." Dong Yunshan tapped his temples lightly with two fingers together. "It's a self-reinforcing business ecosystem comprised of a super supply chain, a digital nerve center, and cultural symbolic value."

Haruno Yukinoshita had a strange feeling that she was facing her mother. "What?"

"The value of cultural symbols goes without saying, and the digital nerve center requires technology. The key lies in the super supply chain," Dong Yunshan explained. "By going deep into the upstream planting end and building our own factories to produce core raw materials and packaging materials, we can achieve ultimate control over costs, gain pricing power, and build a quality barrier."

Haruno Yukinoshita had actually worked in supply chain-related fields, knew the immense convenience and profits that would come with having such a super supply chain. "You really dare to dream."

"See, what did I just say?" Dong Yunshan smiled. "In short, whether it's independent development or financing, it's a path towards this goal, not a future direction. Which one to focus on depends on the specific circumstances."

Stop worrying about the path you're on, and look at the final form in the distance.

Haruno Yukinoshita understood the implied meaning in Yukinoshita's words.

She opened her mouth, wanting to ask a couple more questions, but then she heard footsteps.

"Wow, everyone's here." Yui Yuigahama, now dressed in a swimsuit, approached.

"There's nowhere else to go," Saki Kawasaki said, walking beside her.

"Wow~" Komachi Hikigaya exclaimed, "This place is really amazing!"

Chapter 727 Hot Spring Night Talk

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Yukino Yukinoshita tried to get off Dong Yunshan.

But Dong Yunshan pulled his arms closer and whispered in her ear, "Help me block some of that."

"...Terrible." Yukino Yukinoshita twisted slightly, but couldn't break free, and could only maintain the status quo.

In the distance, the weight of accumulated snow snapped dry branches, producing a crisp cracking sound.

Amidst the cold snowscape, bathed in warm spring water, even a familiar embrace feels different.

After the fatigue was relieved by the hot spring, the hunger in my stomach became even stronger.

The aroma of warm matsutake mushroom stew in a clay pot is irresistible, and the steaming hot sukiyaki is delicious and plentiful. The abundance of seasonal winter dishes perfectly captures the winter atmosphere. Paired with sake served in a vessel of hot water, the meal concludes with a bowl of steaming clam chowder rice, warming the heart to the core.

After dinner, take a short rest and then soak in the hot springs to completely relax your body and mind, which will help improve sleep quality.

A thick quilt is laid on the warm tatami mat, and a buckwheat hull pillowcase is covered with a soft cotton pillowcase. When you shake it gently, you can hear a soft Sasa sound like fine snowflakes rubbing together.

A low-profile paper-shaded lamp was placed in a corner of the room, its light confined to a small patch of warm, dim yellow, just enough to outline the bedding and the shadow of the window frame.

Stepping into the warm cotton ball, you immediately feel a sense of solid support, unlike that of a mattress.

The quilt also has just the right weight, dutifully pressing down on the body and quickly accumulating body heat into a warm and cozy feeling.

Yukino Yukinoshita gently wriggled in Dong Yunshan's arms, adjusting her position so that their bodies could be as close together as possible while remaining relaxed.

Dong Yunshan cooperated with her movements, feeling the sweet and soft scent of his fiancée in his arms, as cute as a kitten kneading.

Yukino Yukinoshita found the most comfortable spot and gently nuzzled against Dong Yunshan's neck. "Brother..."

"Um?"

"About what my sister said..." Yukino Yukinoshita's voice was soft, tinged with hesitation.

Dong Yunshan gently stroked her long hair. "What's wrong?"

"I'm quite curious about the final form you mentioned."

"That..." Dong Yunshan smiled, "That's a lie."

"Huh?" Yukino Yukinoshita looked up in surprise. "What did you say?"

"To be precise, it's all talk and no action," Dong Yunshan said frankly. "It's easy to say, but to actually put it into practice and truly achieve the final form is almost impossible."

"I thought it was possible," Yukino Yukinoshita, her cheeks puffing out slightly. "I was just considering the potential problems that might arise during implementation."

Dong Yunshan nodded. "That's why you're so quiet."

"Because I was thinking about a lot of complicated things..." Yukino Yukinoshita paused, "You only said those things to calm my sister down?"

"I guess so..."

"I'm still seriously considering it..." Yukino Yukinoshita's little hand stirred in the blanket, gently pinching Dong Yunshan. "So you have absolutely no intention of carrying it out?"

"It's not that we've completely ruled out that possibility..." Dong Yunshan grasped her small hand, "We've had some thoughts about it."

Yukino Yukinoshita her eyelids slightly. "Then you can't accept the Yukinoshita Family's investment."

"So that's what you were struggling with." Dong Yunshan's eyes gleamed with amusement. "Looking for a legitimate reason to side with me?"

In order to realize the final form of Cloud Snow Tea, Dong Yunshan cannot be bound or restricted, so he cannot accept the investment from the Yukinoshita Family.

Based on this, the relationship between Dong Yunshan and Yukino Yukinoshita can be removed from the cooperative relationship of Cloud Snow Tea.

Yukino Yukinoshita looked up and stared into his eyes. "I don't need a reason to side with you."

In an instant, Dong Yunshan's heart tightened, as if it were being gripped by Yukino Yukinoshita's warm little hand.

The next moment, the heart began to beat faster and faster, as if it couldn't wait to pump the overflowing love in its heart into every cell of its body in the shortest possible time.

Dong Yunshan tightened her grip on Yukino Yukinoshita's arm and lowered her head—

"I'm being serious." Yukino Yukinoshita raised her hand to cover his mouth, reminding him with a stern face.

"That's a bit unfair," Dong Yunshan whispered, kissing her fingers. "You said things that made my heart flutter, but you won't let me reciprocate."

"I didn't mean to make you fall for me..." Yukino Yukinoshita blushed.

As the Dong Yunshan whispered, Yukino Yukinoshita felt a slight tremor in her soft fingertips.

It felt tingly and slightly itchy.

This refers to the abdomen.

If it were anywhere else...

"In short, considering your plans and the development of Cloud Snow Tea, we still need a reasonable excuse to decline the Yukinoshita Family's investment." Yukino Yukinoshita tried to calm herself down and continue with the serious topic.

"No special reason is needed," Dong Yunshan chuckled, "It's just a matter of reciprocity."

"Reciprocity in gift-giving" refers to...

"My mother-in-law draws me a big pie, and I draw a big pie for my mother-in-law," Dong Yunshan winked mischievously. "We exchange pie to show respect."

"Pie in the Yukinoshita Family's investment is just talk?"

"Not quite, but the investment comes with some related terms, such as guaranteeing my control and key position. These are just empty promises." Dong Yunshan narrowed his eyes slightly. "Before Cloud Snow Tea has become deeply integrated with the Yukinoshita Family, my mother-in-law is already trying to control me in various ways—after becoming deeply integrated, will she relax her efforts?"

"But she really will invest." Yukino Yukinoshita realized the problem. "But the final form you're talking about is just empty promises."

"I can make a token effort too," Dong Yunshan said with a relaxed smile. "After all, you were just considering the feasibility, right?"

Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes flickered slightly as she instantly realized the key point.

Even if Dong Yunshan is just making empty promises, given his past achievements, others will believe that the final form he speaks of could actually be realized.

Because I had questioned the Dong Yunshan Dong Yunshan before, but then I saw its achievements.

Therefore, when I want to question something, I will naturally be more cautious.

Building on this, Dong Yunshan also used an interesting opening line.

"My idea is a bit... well, unbelievable, and that's why I haven't mentioned it before. Even if I say it now, it sounds like a fantasy."

This kind of opening remark is itself a form of psychological suggestion.

Unbelievable? How unbelievable?

After listening...

That's really hard to believe.

But it's not that unbelievable.

Without this opening, listeners will subconsciously question the credibility of the content.

With this opening, the listener will rationalize the content and make it believable.

Chapter 728 Deceiving Superiors and Subordinates

"So when you rubbed my stomach to remind me to answer, you were buying yourself time to think." Yukino Yukinoshita's hand touched Dong Yunshan's stomach. "Thinking about how to calm my sister down?"

"To be precise, I wanted to calm my mother-in-law down."

Yukino Yukinoshita paused in her actions. "Mom?"
