They've made so much money in just a few days; they must be making at least tens of millions a month.

Only Lei Hao knew that this was not just the beginning.

According to Hong Kong statistics, 700 million people consumed 1500 tons or 4600 tons of meat per day in 2019.

Although Hong Kong currently has a population of just over 500 million, it still accounts for two-thirds of the aforementioned statistics, which translates to 1000 tons of vegetables and 3000 tons of meat per day.

If we can capture more market share, we will earn more money, perhaps even several times more.

Seeing how much money he had made this time, Big D was overjoyed.

Previously, he had followed Lei Hao's advice and established a security company called Lei Shield, incorporating his 500 most elite underlings into the company.

He pays his underlings a monthly salary of HK$4000, which is far higher than the salary of a typical white-collar worker.

They also sold employee personal accident insurance and offered bonuses for performing dangerous tasks.

As a result, the security company alone spends nearly HK$400 million per month.

The remaining 1000-plus men are being placed as casual laborers at the pier and wet market because the security company is currently unable to take over, but each of them still receives a basic salary of HK$1500 per month.

This would require an expenditure of nearly HK$200 million, and with the security company's expenses, the monthly cost would be HK$600 million.

After deducting the money he handed over to the club, Big D had very little left.

Now that there are profits from smuggling, even if it's just HK$70 in 3 days, the profit is over HK$2000 million a month.

Giving 20% ​​to the triads would save HK$16 million.

Although Big D and Lei Hao split the lion's share of the money, Long Hair, Dongguan Boy, Jimmy Boy, and Master Su each received several hundred thousand dollars a month.

It can be said that the smuggling business allows everyone to live a life of luxury.

"Big Brother, don't forget to hand over the money to the gang!" Lei Hao specifically reminded Big D.

Upon hearing this, Big D's excited expression instantly vanished. "I understand, I won't forget. I really can't stand these old geezers, they can just sit there and collect money without doing anything!"

Lei Hao shook his head and advised, "Brother, you can't think like that. There are still benefits to handing over money to the gang."

"What benefits?" Big D said with dissatisfaction, "It's nothing more than silencing the gang and preventing those old fogies from interfering in our business."

Lei Hao glanced at Da D in surprise, not expecting his older brother to have learned to use his brain.

Meeting Lei Hao's gaze, Big D said with a hint of arrogance, "What kind of look is that? My brother is so smart, how could I really be a fool?"

Lei Hao smiled, knowing that his older brother wasn't really stupid.

He's just impulsive and lacks the patience to handle things carefully, which makes him seem brainless.

But in reality, it wouldn't be enough for Big D to become the leader of Wo Shing Tsuen Wan if he only knew how to fight.

Chapter 42 A New Look for Tazhai: The Initial Signs of Its Rise

On ordinary days, the business is handled by Sister-in-law D, and now Lei Hao is also there to advise and plan.

Big D, on the other hand, began his life of effortless success, as if he had a cheat code.

However, when he has nothing to do, he tends to think about all sorts of things, so he can guess some of the thoughts of those old fogies in the gang.

Lei Hao shook his head and laughed, "I'm not worried about what the people inside Wo Shing might do. They learned their lesson last time. What I'm worried about is other triads coveting such a lucrative business."

Big D fell silent at this point, neither refuting Lei Hao's words nor, unusually, flying into a rage and threatening to kill anyone trying to steal his business.

Because Big D also understood that such a lucrative business would inevitably become a secret over time.

Other organizations would inevitably covet such a lucrative business.

Moreover, smuggling is less risky than selling laundry detergent.

In mainland China, there is zero tolerance for excessive amounts of laundry detergent; if you exceed one or two ounces, you'll be punished with peanuts.

Even if you get caught smuggling in mainland China, you don't need to worry about being executed.

How to choose? Anyone with a normal brain knows the answer.

"That's why!" Lei Hao said with a smile, patting Big D on the shoulder. "I asked you to pay the bill, brother, so that when conflicts of interest arise between us and the gang in the future, those old geezers won't just sit idly by."

"If they really do that, even if the leaders of the other eight districts don't say anything openly, they will secretly comply with their demands."

"Furthermore, I have a business in the works that is highly profitable and requires a lot of manpower. It is very suitable for attracting powerful gangs to join us."

"After I do this, we'll have a lot more friends in Hong Kong. Those small fry who want to mess with us will have to think twice before they have the ability!"

"Another big deal?!" As soon as Lei Hao finished speaking, Big D couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, staring intently at his younger brother.

Even Long Hair, Dongguan Boy, and Master Su looked at Lei Hao with expressions as if they were looking at God.

They've only just launched a business that's making tens of millions in profit a month, and now an even more lucrative business is brewing.

Lei Hao, who could come up with an endless stream of money-making ideas, had now become the embodiment of the God of Wealth right before their eyes.

The Dongguan guy exclaimed in admiration, "Brother Hao, you must be some kind of reincarnation of the God of Wealth! Every idea you come up with is worth more than most people earn in a lifetime!"

Master Su, Long Hair, and even Big D all nodded in agreement with what Dongguan Boy had said.

"Our Lei family's ancestral graves are finally emitting auspicious smoke!" Big D said with an exaggerated expression.

Lei Hao shrugged, trying to stop their nonsense, but was still perceived as being modest.

Hong Kong people are inherently superstitious, especially Big D, who is the elder brother and firmly believes that Lei Hao is the reincarnation of the God of Wealth.

Before long, Lei Caishen's name spread throughout Hong Kong during this casual conversation.

...

Tazhai.

The sky was a hazy gray, and a glimmer of light gradually appeared on the distant horizon, illuminating the pitch-black sea.

At this moment, Lin Zonghui, along with dozens of young men from Tazhai, stood guard at the makeshift dock in the village, waiting for Lin Yaodong and his group to return.

"Brother Hui, look, Brother Dong and the others are back!" a young man suddenly exclaimed, pointing to the sea.

Lin Zonghui looked in the direction he pointed and indeed saw a fishing boat on the horizon.

Before long, even more animals appeared behind the lead fishing boat.

This relieved Lin Zonghui. "It's good that you came back safely!"

To be honest, he had doubts about Lin Yaodong and Lin Yaohua's promise to bring wealth to the entire village of Tazhai after returning from Hong Kong.

Although there were many opportunities in Hong Kong at that time, Tazhai was extremely poor and had no capital to do any business.

In particular, he learned from a childhood friend who had gone to Hong Kong with Lin Yaodong that Lin He lost his life while protecting Lin Yaodong during a confrontation with a laundry detergent vendor.

This terrified Lin Zonghui, who thought that Lin Yaodong had returned from Hong Kong to try and get involved in the dangerous business of laundry detergent.

As the head of the third branch of Tazhai, he couldn't just stand by and watch Lin Yaodong drag the entire Tazhai into the abyss.

Just as he approached Lin Yaodong, hoping to persuade him with reason and emotion, Lin Yaodong instead took him to see a bunch of large color TVs he had brought back.

This left Lin Zonghui completely dumbfounded; the situation on the scene was entirely different from what he had expected.

When Lin Yaodong told him that he had contacted a big boss in Hong Kong, and that they would provide vegetables and meat to Hong Kong in the future, and that he could also get various electrical appliances from Hong Kong to sell back home.

Hearing that it wasn't dry laundry detergent, Lin Zonghui breathed a sigh of relief. Although Lin Yaodong's so-called business was obviously smuggling, he didn't feel much resistance.

Many coastal villages around the area are doing this. When everyone is so poor they're urinating blood, who cares whether smuggling is illegal?

After all, the law doesn't punish everyone; how could they possibly arrest the entire village?

Lin Zonghui's eyes turned red with envy after seeing that he had sold more than 50 color TVs in just three days and earned over 10 RMB.

Because Lin Yaodong not only made money for himself, but also helped the villagers of Tazhai to make money together.

None of the villagers who bought color TVs from Lin Yaodong and sold them earned less than 1000 RMB.

In Tazhai, where people were so poor they were practically spitting blood, this was roughly equivalent to more than a year's income for a family.

Among them were members of their third branch of the family.

Just as Lin Zonghui's thoughts were drifting away, the dozens of fishing boats led by Lin Yaodong and his men had already docked at the shore one after another.

Awakened, Lin Zonghui hurriedly led the villagers of Tazhai to greet him, "Brother Dong, how was your trip to Hong Kong?"

Before Lin Yaodong could speak, Lin Yaohua behind him interjected, "Isn't that obvious? How could my brother's trip not go smoothly? This time, he not only made a fortune from the vegetables and meat, but also brought back 180 large color TVs!"

Upon hearing this, the villagers of Tazhai who had come with Lin Zonghui exclaimed in surprise.

This means that there is a profit of over 20 RMB at hand, and how much you can get depends entirely on your ability.

Lin Yaodong had been silent the whole time, deliberately observing the villagers' reactions. When he saw that the villagers were behaving as he had expected, the smile on his lips was as wide as an AK.

Chapter 43 Making Money and Killing at the Same Time

Seeing that things had heated up enough, Lin Yaodong immediately stretched out his hand, and the noisy dock instantly fell silent.

"Alright, let's move all these TVs to the ancestral hall first. Zonghui, come with me to the ancestral hall, I have something to tell you to do."

After speaking, Lin Yaodong led the way toward the ancestral hall, while Lin Yaohua urged the young people of Tazhai to quickly unload the color TVs from the fishing boats.

Lin Zonghui followed Lin Yaodong to the ancestral hall, and he was curious about what Lin Yaodong wanted to see him about.

He had seen Lin Yaodong's actions clearly; they were nothing more than an attempt to increase his own prestige so that he could completely control the entire Tazhai.
