Chen Guilin agreed, saying, "It really is delicious, boss."

Ren Jiu understood immediately and gave instructions to Shark En, Chen Guilin, and White Hair:

"After that, you will take people to sell instant noodles, just like you would sell Qiangwei beer."

"Just bring all three districts of Taipei to the market and establish the reputation of instant noodles first."

Upon hearing this, Shark and the other two immediately nodded:

"No problem, boss. Instant noodles are so delicious, they're sure to sell like hotcakes."

As for the monopolistic sales tactic, the three of them were already very familiar with it. This instant noodle was also called Qiangwei Instant Noodles.

In just a few days, Qiangwei instant noodles were sold in three districts. Many shop owners had never seen this kind of instant noodles before. However, because the instant noodles were not expensive and their main selling point was affordability, costing only a few yuan per cup, anyone could afford them, and there were always people who wanted to try them.

Once someone has tried it for the first time, they will immediately recommend it to the people around them, and they will quickly get feedback. After all, it's their first time trying such delicious instant noodles, so it's easy for it to become a hit.

Instant noodles instantly became a hot seller in Taipei, with people even queuing up to buy them. They sold out as soon as they hit the shelves, and people from the southern part of Taipei even came to buy them.

After all, the South District wasn't managed by Ren Jiu. People in the South District had heard that the instant noodles were delicious, so they came specifically to buy a pack to try, and the instant noodles sold out immediately.

Xiao Mei has been extremely busy lately, having set up two more production lines and recruited a group of workers to speed up production.

……

A month later, Xiao Mei sat in her office, calculating the financial statements, while Ren Jiu smoked a cigar beside her. In addition to Xiao Mei, they had hired a few more accountants.

After all, as the business grows bigger, the financial figures involved also increase and become quite complex, which is definitely not enough for Xiaomei to handle alone.

After Xiaomei had compiled all the bills, her face flushed with excitement, she handed the bill to Ren Jiu:

"Ninth Brother, the three districts alone consume 300 million buckets of instant noodles a month. Each bucket of instant noodles, after deducting labor costs and operating costs, earns two yuan. That's 600 million yuan a month."

Ren Jiu was quite satisfied upon hearing this. Although the 600 million NTD figure was somewhat inflated, even if it stabilized, he could still make a profit of 400 million NTD per month. A smile immediately appeared on his face. It was stable, completely stable!

Ren Jiu turned directly to Lao Liu and said, "Lao Liu, do you know anyone at the TV station? I want to spend money on advertising and place ads on TV."

"I want to sell Qiangwei instant noodles all over Taiwan and all over the world."

Old Liu was stunned. He hadn't expected Ren Jiu to be so ambitious. His words left everyone else dumbfounded. They hadn't expected that Ren Jiu, a gangster boss, would want to build such a large business and sell instant noodles all over the world.

Old Liu scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed: "Ninth Master, you flatter me too much. I used to be just a small factory manager, and I didn't know anyone from the TV station."

Upon hearing this, Ren Jiu became somewhat excited. He had previously used the loyalty checker to check Lao Liu's loyalty level, which was 91, meaning Lao Liu was now completely loyal to him.

Because Lao Liu did a good job with Ren Jiu, he had plenty of food and drink, and Ren Jiu was willing to spend money on him, so he could be considered extremely loyal.

Ren Jiu frowned slightly, but he quickly thought of Deputy Director Gao. With Deputy Director Gao's connections, he must know people at the TV station. He then picked up the phone and called Deputy Director Gao.

After Deputy Director Gao answered the phone, he asked, "What is it?"

Ren Jiu smiled and said, "Deputy Director Gao, I want to contribute to society. I plan to advertise on TV and promote my products."

Upon hearing this, Deputy Director Gao found it somewhat strange. He hadn't expected that a short, wiry gangster would want to advertise on television. However, after some thought, he didn't refuse Ren Jiu's request.

"I'll help you get in touch."

After Deputy Director Gao quickly contacted the TV station, Ren Jiu arrived at the station and immediately invested 3000 million NT dollars to advertise throughout Taiwan. The ads appeared on almost every major program and were played on a loop, making them incredibly catchy.

……

The next day, Ren Jiu and his men enjoyed a seafood feast at his villa, including king crabs flown in from the air, as well as various Australian lobsters, crabs, pufferfish, blue shrimp, and other high-end aquatic products.

Not only that, Ren Jiu also bought the three villas next to this one, connecting them together. Now the villa's area has expanded several times over; he's rich.

There was also a television set in the restaurant. Television sets were quite expensive at that time, and an advertisement for Renjiu was playing on the television.

"Eat Qiangwei instant noodles, experience the Qiangwei life!"

The actors were eating instant noodles and making exaggerated movements. Ren Jiu was, of course, experienced in advertising. He copied down the advertisements he had seen in his previous life exactly as they were, which were very brainwashing. The catchy advertising slogan was also Ren Jiu's idea.

Bai Mao and Guilinzi watched the advertisement with great interest; the advertisement made them want to buy a bucket of instant noodles to try it.

……

As Qiangwei instant noodles became a hit throughout Taiwan, less than a week later, Lao Shuming came to Ren Jiu's office and excitedly told Ren Jiu:

"Boss, we're really going to make a fortune! 100 distributors across Taiwan have contacted us wanting to buy our products. We're really going to make a killing!"

Mouse Ming was so excited that he was dancing around. He never knew that doing business could be so profitable. The instant noodle factory was truly a golden goose.

Ren Jiu waved his hand dismissively, saying, "Give them as much as they want, and have the factory add a few more production lines and recruit a batch of workers."

Upon hearing this, Mouse Ming immediately nodded: "No problem."

Chapter Twenty-Eight: Commencing the Unification of Taipei

Three days later, Ren Jiu and Deputy Director Gao were playing golf at the winding Longhua Golf Course.

This golf course caters to Taiwanese elites and the wealthy. The location is spacious, with blue skies and white clouds, making it a pleasant place to talk, and most importantly, you don't have to worry about being overheard.

Deputy Director Gao held a golf club and swung it lightly, his movements skillful, clearly indicating he was a veteran.

As for Ren Jiu, although he grew up in Taipei, he was just a hoodlum before and had no access to high-end sports like golf.

However, Ren Jiu also made a special effort to learn how to play golf. In order to socialize with many wealthy people or celebrities in the future, he had good physical coordination, was strong and healthy, and played golf quite well.

After Ren Jiu hit the golf ball, he came up to Deputy Director Gao and said:

"I would also like to thank Deputy Director Gao for helping to make the connection this time. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Qiangwei instant noodles to break into the market so quickly."

Previously, Deputy Director Gao helped Ren Jiu contact people at the TV station, and Ren Jiu took the opportunity to advertise Qiangwei instant noodles. Now the instant noodles are incredibly popular, and Ren Jiu has made a lot of money.

This time, it was Deputy Director Gao who made the connection. Ren Jiu came over to express his gratitude. It has to be said that having connections at higher levels makes things much easier.

Deputy Director Gao had naturally heard of Qiangwei instant noodles; the whole of Taiwan was talking about it. The instant noodles had indeed become a hit, and everyone in Taiwan knew about Qiangwei instant noodles.

After all, the 30 million yuan advertising fee wasn't spent in vain!

Deputy Director Gao exclaimed, "I never expected you to be so good at business. Now Qiangwei instant noodles are a huge hit, and the whole of Taiwan knows about them."

Deputy Director Gao never expected that Ren Jiu, a man who had been involved in the underworld, would have such a business mind. Why bother being a lowly mule? He could make a fortune just by doing business.

In his mind, short mules are usually a bit dim-witted, like Liu Jian, who only knows how to fight and kill all day long, and wants the whole world to know that he owns a pharmacy, so he's incredibly high-profile.

Little did they know that society needs long-term stability and security!

Now he thinks Ren Jiu is smart and might be a good partner.

Ren Jiu smiled and said, "I love society, and I want social stability more than anyone else. I'm not like that bastard Liu Jian who only thinks about fighting and killing and running a pharmacy all day long."

"Next, I plan to continue to expand production. I need to expand the instant noodle factory and recruit three to four thousand workers."

Three thousand workers mean employment for three to four thousand families, which can at least solve the livelihood problems of tens of thousands of people. Even he, as the bureau chief, cannot ignore this, and even legislators cannot underestimate this employment rate.

That's tens of thousands of votes! These workers will definitely listen to Ren Jiu. It's impossible to ignore so many votes.

Deputy Director Gao nodded in satisfaction upon hearing Ren Jiu's words, fully agreeing with Ren Jiu's point of view.

What he disliked most about Liu Jian was that he lacked a sense of the big picture and had a narrow perspective.

Ren Jiu perfectly suited his needs. He wanted social stability, because only with social stability could he earn money with peace of mind. Moreover, as the deputy director of the police station, he certainly didn't want his partners to cause trouble everywhere.

Then, Deputy Director Gao looked at Ren Jiu and said, "I think you're more suited to be a businessman than a gangster."

Ren Jiu smiled slightly upon hearing this, but remained silent. Without the strength to do business, one is nothing more than a fat sheep to be slaughtered by others.

...

A month later, Ren Jiu was drinking tea in his office. Next to his office, Ren Jiu had a separate office set up, which had more than 20 workstations, all of which were staffed by accountants who were responsible for managing Ren Jiu's accounts.

At this moment, Xiao Mei arrived at Ren Jiu's office with the total bill. As soon as she entered, she saw Chen Guilin sitting on the sofa wiping his big black gun, applying gun oil and maintaining the weapon.

Chen Guilin was rather simple-minded; he did whatever Ren Jiu asked him to do without any ulterior motives. Otherwise, his underling would have been severely reprimanded for playing with a gun in front of the boss.

Upon seeing Xiaomei, Chen Guilin stopped what he was doing and greeted her, "Hello, sister-in-law."

Xiao Mei nodded, then went to Ren Jiu's side and said:

"Ninth Brother, Qiangwei instant noodles are now making 30 to 40 million a month. I estimate that the annual profit will be 300 to 400 million."

Chen Guilin, who was standing to the side, was stunned when he heard this. He felt like he couldn't even count the money on his fingers. How much money was that? He had never seen so much money when he was a mule.

Chen Guilin was dumbfounded. The big boss was indeed a big boss.

What is this? This is the difference in perspective. In the past, when they were just lowly mules, they would fight and kill people for a few tens of thousands of dollars, disregarding their lives. But the big shots can easily make hundreds of millions with a little thought. How can you compare?

Ren Jiu smiled. Now that he controlled the entire instant noodle supply in Taiwan, he could eventually take the instant noodles abroad and sell them overseas.

Three or four hundred million is just a small goal. Ren Jiu put down the financial statement in his hand, looked at Chen Guilin beside him, and instructed:

"Guilin boy, go and call Rat Ming over here."

Chen Guilin nodded slightly: "Boss, I'll go right away."

Fifteen minutes later, Lao Shuming entered the office, looked at Ren Jiu, and asked:

"Boss, what's the matter?"

Ren Jiu made no secret of his ambition: "I plan to unify Taipei City, and from now on, only my voice, Ren Jiu's voice, will be heard in Taipei!"

They have already controlled three districts in Taipei City, and the Health and Wellness Association's territory has long been digested. Ren Jiu plans to take over the Southern District as well, and intends to have Lao Shuming check on Hu Yi's whereabouts in the Southern District. He then said:

"Mouse Ming, you will investigate Hu Yi's whereabouts in the South District from now on, and report to me at any time."

Upon hearing this, Mouse Ming's face lit up with excitement. Knowing that the big boss was about to unify Taipei City, he immediately nodded.
