You were put undercover, and you've risen to become the boss.

Inside the villa lobby.

A middle-aged man sat inside. He was somewhat overweight, dressed in a suit and tuxedo, and appeared to be in his fifties. His eyes revealed a sinister look.

"Godfather!"

This man was Peng Jiahao.

Upon hearing Peng Ying's voice, his gaze fell directly on Chen Hui.

Chen Hui immediately stepped forward and said very respectfully.

"Greetings, General Peng!"

Peng Jiahao sized him up for a moment, nodded slightly, and a meaningful smile appeared on his lips.

"You're Chen Hui?"

"Yes, General!"

"Hmm, not bad. Zuo Min told me about you before; you're the person in charge of Yangcheng. He speaks highly of you, and you're indeed impressive!"

"That's too kind of Mr. Zuo Min; it's a pity I couldn't bring him along!"

Peng Jiahao waved his hand.

"Zuo Min has worked for me for so many years. If he failed this time, it's his fate. The fact that you escaped means you weren't meant to die!"

Chen Hui didn't see any sadness in Peng Jiahao's expression. Sure enough, these people were completely devoid of emotion.

"Now that you're here, you can rest assured. Peng Ying says you're his brother, he highly regards you, and you're also the person in charge of Yangcheng. You're practically family, so settle in here!"

"Thank you, General!"

Peng Jiahao suddenly stood up.

"Peng Ying, come out with me!"

"Where are we going, Godfather?"

"Go see Wu Zhensheng."

Peng Ying nodded, her eyes darting around.

"Godfather, Hui-ge doesn't have a place to stay yet. Why don't we let him come along?"

Peng Jiahao glanced at Chen Hui, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded.

"Set off!"

Wu Zhensheng, Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Allied Forces.

The supreme ruler of Aimo, or you could say the local tyrant of Aimo, holds the power of life and death.

The three drove and soon arrived at Wu Zhensheng's residence.

It's also a villa.

The villa is very impressive, and it looks even more luxurious and larger than Peng Jiahao's villa.

The car was stopped as soon as it arrived at the entrance.

At the entrance of Wu Zhensheng's villa, there were six soldiers in uniform, who looked more professional.

There are also bunker-like structures on both sides, with two heavy machine guns mounted on them.

After Peng Jiahao identified himself, the soldier immediately reported and went inside. A moment later, the soldier opened the gate and let them in.

Enter the reception hall.

Wu Zhensheng personally came to the door to greet them, and the two hugged each other with smiles, just like old friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time.

Chen Hui sized up Wu Zhensheng, who was about the same age as Peng Jiahao. He was wearing a green military shirt, a belt, a pistol, and military boots.

He looks more like a general than Peng Jiahao; both he and his soldiers are much more disciplined.

Peng Jiahao looked exactly like a bandit.

"Brother Peng, come in and have a seat!"

After we sat down, two women dressed in long Burmese dresses immediately served tea.

"Brother Peng, you've come to see me because you need something, haven't you?"

Upon hearing this, Peng Jiahao immediately put down his teacup and smiled.

"Brother Wu, you're right, I do indeed have something to ask of you."

Wu Zhensheng took a slow sip of tea and said quietly.

"Brother Peng, please speak."

"Bailu, I want both Bailu and Fengle properties, Brother Wu, you have to help me!"

Wu Zhensheng squinted, a smile curving his lips, and put down his teacup to look at him.

"Brother Peng, Bailu and Fengle are both properties owned by the Wen family. They pay us sufficient fees every year. If I give them to you, wouldn't that break the rules?"

"Brother Wu, the Wen family patriarch and his sons have all fallen to the government forces. The remaining people can't hold onto these two lucrative assets. Even if I don't take them, someone else will. Brother Wu, you'll end up handing them over to someone else anyway, so why not give them to me!"

"I guarantee I'll pay you the same amount of taxes the Wen family has paid each month!"

Wu Zhensheng did not respond to him immediately. After pondering for a moment, he looked at him.

"No matter what, this is the Wen family's property. Even if you want to take it over, you'll have to pay for it. I also need to give the Wen family an explanation!"

Upon hearing this, Peng Jiahao's eyes lit up. He urgently needed to establish a foothold in Aimo.

"Brother Wu, name your price!"

"Fengle won't do. Someone has already bought Fengle. There are still quite a few piglets in this park, and at this price, I'm afraid you, Brother Peng, don't have enough funds to buy two properties!"

"I can give you three thousand from the Baccarat casino!"

Peng Jiahao frowned slightly. He was currently in dire need of money. He didn't have enough funds to buy the Bailu casino in Fengle, the telecom fraud industrial park.

Of course, while it was ostensibly for the Wen family, the money was actually going to the Allied forces.

"Okay, thirty million, I agree!"

"Brother Peng, I meant US dollars!"

Upon hearing this, Peng Jiahao's pupils dilated sharply, and he exclaimed in surprise.

"US dollars?"

Thirty million US dollars—in this day and age, that's almost two hundred million. Where is he going to get so much money? Besides, he has people to support, so he can't just liquidate everything.

"Brother Peng, thirty million US dollars is already a friendly price. You should know how many people outside want Bailu. If you're not even willing to pay this price, how can I convince others? People will say I'm unfair!"

"Alright, I have something to take care of and need to go out for a bit. If you're okay with it, bring the money over, and we can complete the paperwork for Bailu!"

After saying this, Wu Zhensheng turned and left the hall.

Peng Jiahao's face was extremely gloomy, his fists were clenched, and he stared at his back for a long time before finally leaving the villa.

Back in his villa.

Peng Jiahao's face was extremely ugly, and he was exceptionally angry.

Zuo Min was killed, and he didn't bring the money back. He had some businesses in other places before, but they were stolen. In order to maintain his power, he had to find a way to make money.

Casinos are a legal business in this place, and they're extremely profitable.

In this place, without the approval of the Allied Forces, it is impossible to obtain a legal license. Without a legal license, the Allied Forces will absolutely not allow his casino to continue operating.

If things continue like this, he'll eventually be swallowed up by someone else.

"Godfather!"

Just then, a man of similar age to Peng Ying entered. As he passed by Chen Hui, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes before he walked up to Peng Jiahao.

Peng Jiahao looked at him.

"How's things going in Nongba Village?"

The man frowned slightly and said in a deep voice.

"Nongba Village is unwilling to deliver the goods to us anymore and is demanding that we return the previous payment, saying that we have already delayed for so long. They want us to either return the goods and pay interest, or they will tell the Allied Forces and the Northern Army to take charge!"
