Siheyuan (courtyard house): My name is Shazhu!

He Yuzhu and Zhou Songyu did not rush back to Gangcheng, but instead inspected most of their factories in their hometown that were easily accessible.

This display of prowess in public was warmly welcomed by the factory workers, making them feel like superior people by working for Dongda Group.

It's much better than other factories outside. Not to mention the top wages in the area, just the large house and two 100,000 yuan bonuses alone make them 'rich people' in the area.

"Zhou Ze, what type of factory is still missing here, or what kind of expansion is needed?"

"Steel production and supermarkets are still insufficient. We are expanding our supermarkets by 100 stores every year. Our group has supermarkets in all the major cities in my hometown."

The steel issue is that my hometown has entered a period of rapid construction this year, which has led to a significant increase in the demand for steel.

Furthermore, the demand from the Japanese has increased significantly, likely in their automotive sector, as has the United States.

"Can people even ride in cars from the Space Country? What technology do they have? The Japanese still need steel; they desperately need to import it."

To completely rebuild their five industrial zones, it will take at least until 2000 to build a 30 million-ton steel plant in Northeast Ying City and Bincheng. Please take a look at the address.

"Yes."

"Yuzhu, isn't a steel mill here with a capacity of over 150 million tons enough?"

He Yuzhu also expressed deep feelings about the steelmaking industry in his hometown. It is only 150 million tons now, which seems like a lot and is frightening. What will happen when it reaches 1 billion tons in the future?

"That's the downside of having a large territory. It's ten times larger than Malaysia, and the population is a hundred times greater. The demand for resources is too high. Is there anything we can do about it?"

"Sir, won't you build a car factory?"

"There's no need to build in the Northeast; if necessary, expand the automobile factory in Beijing or Shanghai."

"The real estate industry here is showing signs of recovery. Shouldn't we follow suit?"

"Build five-star hotels, CBDs, shopping malls and supermarkets in suitable locations, and build some housing near the shopping malls. There is no need to completely get involved in the real estate industry."

The company is not short of money and does not need the kind of initial capital accumulation that comes with real estate.

"yes."

He Yuzhu's living room!

When He Yuzhu returned home from get off work, he heard He Mingli, who had moved back in, talking to Qin Huairu and Gu Qingqing at the entrance of the hall. Zhou Songyu was supporting He Mingli.

"Daddy's back." He Mingli and Gu Qingqing stood up from the sofa to greet him.

"Sit down. What are you two talking about? You're arguing quite a bit."

"Daddy, we're talking about fairness. Didn't a reporter interview them about the college entrance exam? They said it's fair for all students."

Mommy and Qingqing think it's fair, but Auntie and I don't think it's completely fair. What do you think?

"It seems you've forgotten one thing: the fairness you're talking about applies to the test takers, not to us. Even for them, it can only be described as relatively fair."

"Daddy, why isn't it absolutely fair?" Gu Qingqing asked, somewhat confused.

"There is something in this world called rules or power, and the college entrance examination is a form of fairness under the rules."

However, it is not fair to those of us who are above the rules or make the rules.

Simply put, children from ordinary families may be able to achieve upward social mobility through the college entrance examination.

We're already above the rules, do we need to leapfrog further? No, so what if we don't get into university? As long as we don't do anything reckless, we'll enjoy a life of wealth and luxury.

"It seems we've misunderstood each other. The point is, the college entrance exam is only fair to ordinary people."

"Oh, I see. I used to be from an ordinary family, but marrying Mingli means I'm no longer an ordinary person."

"That's right, so we can live a life of debauchery together!"

"He Mingli!" Qin Huairu completely broke down.

"Wow, this is a stock from our hometown listed in Hong Kong. Daddy, what do you think of this stock?"

"Tsingtao Brewery! I haven't paid attention to them; their assets aren't more than yours. With stronger ties between the two places, more companies will go public in the future."

"Daddy, why was the Gangcheng Soft Drink Factory able to make so much money back then?"

"The cost of a bottle of formulated cola is no more than 0.15 yuan. The higher cost comes from other packaging, including the bottle, cap, and label. A PET bottle costs about 0.3 yuan, and a glass bottle costs about 0.8 yuan or more."

We've been using PET bottles, keeping the total cost below 0.5 yuan. Selling them here for 5 Hong Kong dollars is still a huge profit.

Our company isn't involved in the beer industry. Your dad is interested in baijiu (Chinese white liquor) and huangjiu (yellow wine), but other things are just so-so.

"Beverages are so profitable? Ten times the price."

"The competition will be fierce in the future, so it's best to prioritize technical skills in any business."

"Daddy, it seems like you don't need your mineral resources."

"It's not about arguing with me. Mineral resources also require technology; there's a huge difference between manual and mechanical mining."

"That seems to be true. Daddy, have you seen my movies, 'Flirting Scholar' and 'The Eagle Shooting Heroes'?"

"No, you only appear for a few seconds in those two movies. Could you even find you with a magnifying glass?"

"Haha, Mingli puts a little more effort into making movies, he deserves an award."

"Daddy, that hurt my pride! I had at least half a minute of screen time in those two movies!"

"Uh, it's been quite a long time, let's eat."

"Sigh, that's incredibly disrespectful."

"Daddy, could you give me the Huizhou ink that my aunt from our hometown gave me? Qingqing can use it when she practices calligraphy; it seems like no one else uses it."

"Qingqing knows calligraphy, so she doesn't need your aunt's piece; the one she has is a souvenir."

I have Huizhou ink here, all of the finest Huizhou ink, in the storage cabinet in my study.

Avoid practicing calligraphy for extended periods during pregnancy, as it may affect the baby.

"I won't practice calligraphy for long periods; I'll just grab some when I go to eat."

He Yuzhu's office!

"We reached an agreement with the Ye family to exchange five million tons of grain for the cultural relics they possess."

"An agreement is reached. The price isn't excessive. We'll have people from our hometown inspect and pack the goods, and we'll deliver the grain to them."

"I've already made arrangements. Several European countries are openly and covertly boycotting our company's products."

"Erdezi and his five countries?"

"Yes, Mr. He, what are your plans?"

"I've said before that it's better for the enemy to be dead. I originally planned to deal with them by the end of the year, but it seems they don't want to wait until then. Why should I wait?"

"If they keep attacking like this, they might start thinking about us!"

"It doesn't matter. After dealing with the little eagle, we don't need to worry too much. The world will keep turning even if someone is gone."

"It's your decision!"

Three days later, He Yuzhu arrived in Europe and began to take action against five target countries.

If we were to revert everything to the Stone Age, we would be no different from Japan. What does it mean to be an industrial or agricultural powerhouse? Without martial virtue, we are all garbage.

He Yuzhu took any supplies that he could take and destroyed anything he couldn't take.

It can now be said that wherever He Yuzhu went, there were no valuable resources, including unripe grains in the fields; he had no intention of holding back at all.

They will go, like the Japanese, to find the lost thirty years.

He Yuzhu's current decision is to kill anyone who stands in his way, to treat all things as straw dogs, and to become unknowingly very indifferent.

After He Yuzhu's blow, the five countries are like people who have lost their fathers; they have nothing left, including food and any money in the banks.

All office computers are gone, all paper documents have disappeared, and all technology remains only in the minds of researchers.

Moreover, at least half of these people practice freefall, which is a devastating blow.

In some ways, they were hit harder than Japan, which was expanding its reach globally and buying up goods everywhere, while they were largely confined to Japan.

He had doubts about He Yuzhu, but they were dispelled. It was just one night of bad luck for him. His speed couldn't possibly be that fast. The next day, many people saw him going to work at the company.
