The main character, Kentaro Hagiwara, is a 25-year-old man working at a small factory in a small town. Although he is very poor with a large amount of debt left by his late parents, he lives a happy life surrounded by his two younger brothers and warm friends. One day, Kentaro promised his younger brothers, "Let's go out for Yakiniku dinner on my next payday!" However, on a long-awaited day, the local factory went bankrupt. In the end, he did not receive his salary and was forced to collect on his debts, and to top it all off, he was evicted by his landlord from the house he was living in due to rent arrears. Kentaro was looking for a new job, and through the introduction of Michiko, a childhood friend, he found a new job at a building maintenance company of "Universal Insurance," a huge foreign-affiliated insurance company. One day, Kentaro presses Kashiwagi for a new job using an important file he happened to find as a shield, but Kentaro is fired from his job at the building maintenance company. However, Kentaro pretends to be an employee of Universal Insurance and seduces Osawa, the owner of the file, into cooperating with him, and succeeds in winning back a large contract. Luckily, he catches the eye of the company president, Himuro, and Kentaro is officially hired as an employee.
