Siheyuan (courtyard house): My name is Shazhu!

Zhou Songyu knew that Masha had come again these past few days, not because there was a spy in the company tipping her off!

Rather, it's about recognizing a woman by her scent. This isn't just a male prerogative; women have a more sensitive nose, and their sense of smell improves a hundredfold or even ten thousandfold in this regard.

She was jealous and she was trying her best, but it still didn't work, and neither did Qin Huairu!

Zhou Songyu didn't actually care about Masha's existence; he knew about He Yuzhu's 'abilities' and his attitude towards other women!

Aside from Martha, all the other activities are for entertainment purposes, and she doesn't bring them home. She's quite at ease about that, unless a woman is truly talented, and exceptionally talented!

Qin Huairu doesn't count. Her situation is very special. She accompanied He Yuzhu through the 'poverty' period, and giving her a title is because He Yuzhu is loyal and devoted!

As for Masha, she had been with He Yuzhu for quite some time, but Zhou Songyu was very clear that even if she became a real widow, she would never be able to enter the He family's door!

Her surname brought her immense prestige; she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, making her the envy of many. However, it also restricted her entire life, preventing her from making her own decisions about her marriage.

What kind of people are Niu Niu's family? They would never agree to let her marry into the He family, not even a crack in the door!

Zhou Songyu knew that she had supported He Yuzhu a few years ago, and that He Yuzhu's current success was thanks to her.

I've already forgiven her, considering how she occasionally shielded me from bullets!

Twenty days later, Martha left Hong Kong and returned home. With more money in her hands, she began to invest in some companies in the United States, which was also a form of investment!

By the end of November, the stock market had fallen by 24.71%, entering a three-year adjustment period before starting to rise, which also marked the beginning of the most frenzied period of nationwide stock speculation!

In March 66, a major earthquake struck Xingtai. He Yuzhu's company sent a large amount of daily necessities plus 3 million US dollars in cash. Even though he was not there, he still wanted to do his part!

As May arrived, what was bound to happen finally came, but this time on a much smaller scale.

The company's import and export of medicinal materials and other goods has only been affected by fluctuations of about 10%, and it has been well protected.

Qin Huairu's family had no problems; the students graduated normally; the university was not too chaotic; the "Old Three Classes" did not reappear; only the political vetting threshold was raised.

The military and research institutions were almost completely intact!

He Yuzhu was very satisfied with this matter. It wasn't a complete change, but rather a small change, especially in the fields of scientific research and education, where there were significant changes!

This is good!

Although he is still closely monitoring the situation, He Yuzhu has once again entered a period of rest. With nothing important to do, He Yuzhu took his family on a month-long trip to the United States!

Everyone thinks that the current US is better. Its developed cities surpass Hong Kong in every aspect, with skyscrapers everywhere and a large number of family cars!

Their social life is rich and prosperous; we need to catch up with them. They've always been comparing themselves to this port city!

He Yuzhu and his two companions, along with two other adults, were watching a documentary about life in the United States. The five children, however, didn't find it particularly appealing; there simply wasn't enough good food!

They would have clamored to go home long ago if they had new clothes and toys, but they are still too young and only like what they like.

Not long after returning from the US, Qin Huairu became pregnant again, determined to have a boy.

"If you want to have a child, then have one. No one will say anything to you. Do as you please." Zhou Songyu hesitated, wondering whether to have a third child.

Encouraged by her aunt, who had already recovered from her illness, she decided to have another child next year, regardless of gender, and not have any more children after that.

She was very satisfied with the future distribution of He Yuzhu's assets. Important companies were placed in the family foundation, and all shares were registered under her first wife's name, which allowed her to receive dividends but not transfer them.

In some smaller companies, the shares are split equally among the children, and the shares can be transferred between them.

If the property is to be sold to outsiders, the consent of more than 75% of the heirs is required.

This agreement took effect after He Yuzhu's death!

He Yuzhu didn't mention that he hadn't succeeded yet, and the children were still too young. He Mingzhong was only six years old. He would talk about it again in twenty years!

Now He Yuzhu has given him a private tutor to teach him some ways of governing the country, managing the economy, and military affairs. The time is very short, six hours a week, and the rest of the time is mostly spent playing!

After He Yuzhu acquired the Star Ferry, he did not raise the price and did not care about a little money, so the riot did not occur and the year passed peacefully.

The 8th FIFA World Cup was held in Niu Niu from July 11th to 30th, and He Yuzhu went to watch the games alone.

Zhou Songyu, Qin Huairu, and He Yushui were not interested and spent twenty-five days playing freely by themselves at Niu Niu.

After exchanging pleasantries with my Niu Niu friends and spending over 20 million Niu Niu coins, I returned to the port city in high spirits. Europa Casino is doing quite well.

Richard, Prince Cha, Martha and eight others all made money, from more than six million to twenty-four million, for a total of 110 million Niu Niu coins!

These are the descendants of truly top-tier families in the industry; there were too many others, so we didn't include them in the group.

They agreed to use the funds they had accumulated to enter the foreign exchange market and make another profit, and no one objected!

On August 1st, Dongda TV in Gangcheng premiered, becoming the first completely free-to-air TV station in the area!

August 11 – Mud Monkeys and Malays officially announced the end of a three-year-long, painless war.

This was a low-intensity military conflict triggered by the opposition of the Mud Monkeys to the formation of the Federation of Malaysia.

The conflict resulted in the deaths of approximately 590 Mud Monkey soldiers and 114 Commonwealth soldiers, with neither side achieving a decisive military victory.

The Mud Monkeys sent guerrillas to infiltrate the border of East Malaysia (Sarawak and Sabah) and launch attacks!

We'll help the Mud Monkeys, especially after we brought them into the Mosquito Kingdom. You can have fun, and we'll help you.

This is the most chaotic place. In three years, with those who fled and those who were eliminated, there are less than 30,000 people left here. The underlings brought people from East Malaysia in!

They've started laying the groundwork in the small mosquito country. As for developing oil and natural gas, it's too early. The land is theirs, and the other mineral resources are theirs to keep.

Paratroopers were airdropped in Johor, Peninsular Malaysia! They were repelled immediately; it was He Yuzhu's henchman who did it, without using regular troops!

In 1964, Marines were deployed to Stirring up trouble by causing explosions (such as the McDonald Building bombing).

This time, their underlings are all helping them, especially when dealing with certain individuals; the repercussions will be far-reaching.

The United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, and other Commonwealth countries support Malaysia, and the Malaysian army has deployed and carried out secret cross-border operations in Borneo.

Because of these countries, He Yuzhu did not directly seize the land in his personal capacity, but secretly took it over the next two or three decades under the name of a local Malay!

Niu Niu and his group were well aware of the large-scale investment in factories in Malaysia, but they looked down on this place. In addition, the investment was scattered, and the situation was still somewhat chaotic.

That's why no one came. In short, I don't even care about the US, let alone an insignificant little horse.

At that time, Malaysia was in a bad situation, West Malaysia was a little better, East Malaysia had a small population, and He Yuzhu's underlings were acquiring land, building roads and ports.

These are all densely populated jobs. East Malaysia and the small country together only have 1.5 million people, so more than 300,000 people need to work and earn money at the same time.

This will allow East Malaysians to have an average income that is only slightly lower than that of West Malaysians, while significantly improving their standard of living!

With the help of planned actions, the population of East Malaysia has been declining and the standard of living has been rising. By the end of 66, after the war, East Malaysia was full of He Yuzhu's underlings.

The penetration was even greater than in West Malaysia. At this point, at least 60% of the entire Malaysian economy had fallen into He Yuzhu's pocket, and in the industrial sector, it was over 95%.

As for banks, ports, and mineral resources, they own more than 85% of the assets, with only a smaller penetration into agriculture. Most of them are in the hands of Chinese families who farm wherever they go!

An incredibly powerful gene for farming!

Changing dynasties is no longer difficult!

All that's missing is the right opportunity!
