Siheyuan (courtyard house): My name is Shazhu!

While traveling with Masha through several European countries, He Yuzhu discovered that these countries were basically in a period of stagflation, with factories operating at low capacity.

Their unemployment rate will not be low, and we have also seen various products from the Dongda brand appearing on the shelves of major department stores, with a wide variety of goods.

Prices are about 10% cheaper than local goods, but more expensive than goods in the port city!

"We also have many of your company's products there. The quality is better than ours, and the price is cheaper. They are very popular."

"Your area is still poor. It wasn't easy to get in before; most of the goods were clothes and toys."

"No choice but to have money!"

"We're here for the money. Your Iron Woman wants us to donate more money to contribute to the restoration of national strength. She's dreaming again."

We all agreed that donating one or two hundred million was acceptable, but donating more was impossible; nobody's money comes from thin air.

"Hehe, you can't say for sure. The wind really did blow money down here the year before last; you might even find some lying around!"

"That little bit of money isn't anything to be concerned about!"

"They're going crazy because they have so little money and the situation is dire. If they sold us 90% of their oil, telegraph, and telecommunications businesses, we could donate two billion NiuNiu coins to them."

"These two items aren't even worth two billion. Your generosity shows you really believe in these two projects."

"Of course, how could I not be tempted by projects worth hundreds of billions in the future? Some projects cannot be valued separately; their prospects also need to be considered."

"You know about this. We'll go back and talk to her. It seems like we won't lose money investing in your projects."

"You are completely different from what you were more than ten years ago. Sometimes you should care less about money and think about making money in the future."

With gold and oil prices fluctuating, the investment department must have made a lot of money in the past two years. For us, two billion NiuNiu coins are just four billion YingSao coins.

"The investment department is incompetent; they made money and lost money alike. It took them over two years to earn 700 million NiuNiu coins. You can't count on them."

"The skill level is a bit low."

"It's a real rip-off. Right now, the best option is still mobile phone manufacturing, along with the industrial chain. They employ a lot of people and the profits are pretty good. I wish there would be another opportunity like this."

"Keep dreaming. And don't get too excited. Once the technology is sold, competition will intensify significantly, and a price war is inevitable. With your costs, no one is optimistic about your prospects."

"There's nothing I can do."

"There was no way to stop it back then, so you just kept an eye on your public utility company's IPO for me. Then you can go on vacation; you can never earn all the money in the world."

"All right."

Upon returning to Niu Niu's capital, the first thing Martha did was contact the Iron Women and buy some shares with money, ensuring they wouldn't suffer any losses.

Upon hearing about the money, the Iron Woman's eyes lit up. She dropped what she was doing and, accompanied by a secretary and bodyguard, immediately went to Martha's estate in the city.

"Heh, I didn't expect you to be here too. Are you trying to acquire shares in our company?" She was in a hurry and got straight to the point.

"Have a seat, what would you like to drink? Let's talk about your various stocks; I'll offer high prices for them all."

"Tell me, under what conditions will you purchase the listed shares?"

Seeing that she didn't want coffee or alcohol, He Yuzhu didn't mind. "Your aerospace, telegraph, and radio company is going public. I want 51% of the shares. How much do you need?"

"That's impossible. Our first batch of listed companies did not have more than 30% of the shares. They will be listed in batches."

Don't you need car manufacturers? They're quite profitable.

"We don't need car manufacturing plants. Phased releases? You're kidding. You won't get enough by playing that game. You need money and time. You can't be slow."

Otherwise, the interest alone on the reconstruction loans you take out will crush you. You can't rely on that money unless there's no interest or a very low interest rate!

"We know they're taking advantage of our misfortune, but there's nothing we can do; we have to rebuild. So, you mean we need to get a quick sum of money to rebuild, and time becomes less important?"

"That's right, the money is yours. There is no foreign debt, so you don't have to bear this cost. Reconstruction involves many basic projects, which will require more people and reduce the unemployment rate."

We can privatize your telecommunications, natural gas, airline, and public utilities companies; we can even take over the water company, with an estimated price increase of 10%.

"That's impossible. Our company needs to assess their value, and besides, you're not one of our citizens, so there's no way you can get too many shares."

"My nationality is a lie. Someone will take my name. You should think about this."

Something urgent comes up: I need a batch of weapons. Someone else wants them; here's the list. They're not very valuable, and there might be a second time. You can assess their value.

"This is a minor issue. We have inventory, including two 5,000-ton warships. How do we ship them?"

"Go to Malaysia."

Less than an hour later, the Iron Woman left, wanting to remember what He Yuzhu had said: money was too important.

"May I?"

"If once doesn't work, try twice or three times. They have no other choice."

A few days after returning to the port city, Kuang Biao came to He Yuzhu's office and said, "Mr. He, we're going to deal with someone. He's monopolized the 'powder selling' industry here."

Born into the 12K regime, he now runs the 'Hongyi Hall' to do his bidding, and in the past two years has completely infiltrated various places. His followers are increasing in number.

"Let's deal with them openly and honestly, as a wake-up call. We're helping the people here, and he's harming people. We need to confront him in public."

"Mr. He, they have quite a few men, especially in their stronghold in Yau Ma Tei, where they have three to five hundred followers. There will be casualties in a face-to-face confrontation."

"I'll help you. There won't be any casualties. When you go, take Ah Zhi and the others with you. They'll handle everything. You won't be in any serious trouble. If it's minor, you'll be released on bail."

We are eliminating a scourge for the people!

And how old are Brother Hao Nan and Brother Shan Ji, whom you've been keeping an eye on? They should be locals from Causeway Bay.

"Mr. He, you have a really bad sense of humor. They're just a few seven or eight-year-old kids who've just started elementary school. But our Brother Haonan has always been good-looking; he'll definitely be a pretty boy when he grows up."

"Ten years from now, your club will be the top spot. Young people who fight and kill are not good. They need to have a spirit of serving the people and learn to make money in a civilized and polite way. They will be very popular."

Our Brother Chicken may not be good-looking, but he has inner beauty and is a super-potential stock. Fifteen years later, he will have countless admirers.

Once they're a bit older, with your guidance, they could become quite capable teachers.

"Okay, some brothers will like it."

"They need to become all-around, multi-talented warriors."

"Hehe, no problem."

It was raining moderately, and by nine o'clock at night it was completely dark. The streetlights illuminated the road, but there were almost no pedestrians.

Ten cars were parked in front of a nightclub in Yau Ma Tei, including three Black Dragon 4s and seven vans.

A man stepped out of the first black car; he was dressed head to toe in a black suit and black leather shoes, and wore flashy black sunglasses.

He was in his forties, with a standard 3:7 parted hairstyle, regular facial features, and sharp angles. He looked very much like Comrade Zhu Shimao and was full of a sense of justice.

He smiled casually at the nightclub sign and was the first to enter, followed by twenty of his underlings.

"Brother Biao, what brings you to our humble shop? And with so many brothers. Is there anything we haven't done well enough for you...?" A talkative forty-year-old woman appeared, a woman past her prime.

"Stop talking nonsense. I know your boss, Hong Hanyi, is here. I'm here to see him. Tell him to come down and see me." Kuang Biao interrupted the female student. This guy had been a guest before.

"Please wait a moment, Boss Biao." The woman was perceptive. Seeing that Boss Biao, who rarely left Causeway Bay, had come and was specifically looking for the boss by name, a bad feeling welled up in her heart.
