Lin Zonghui did not speak out to stop them. As long as they didn't lead the villagers of Tazhai down a path of no return, he, as a member of Tazhai, couldn't stop them from making money.

When Lin Zonghui arrived at the ancestral hall, Lin Yaodong was already sitting in the courtyard and starting to make tea.

Hearing footsteps, Lin Yaodong didn't even look up. "Zong Hui is here. Please sit down and let me have some tea to calm down."

Lin Yaodong's tone was calm, yet it possessed a certain mysterious magic that made Lin Zonghui naturally do as he said.

After pouring Lin Zonghui a cup of tea, Lin Yaodong poured himself a cup and drank it.

"Ah~"

The mellow tea soup instantly relieved Lin Yaodong's fatigue.

Just then, Lin Yaohua also directed the young people of Tazhai to move the color TVs from the fishing boats to the ancestral hall.

Seeing the 180 color TVs that had just been brought back to Tazhai, piled up like a small mountain with the remaining color TVs, Lin Yaodong was filled with pride.

This was the initial capital he used to build the Tazhai Group. He believed that before long, the villagers of Tazhai would not only be selling color TVs, but every household would be able to use color TVs or even other in-demand electrical appliances.

"Yaohua, when you're done, sit down and have some tea."

After saying that, Lin Yaodong poured Lin Yaohua a cup of hot tea without waiting for his reply.

The other young people from Tazhai who had already set up their color TVs knew that the three leaders had something to discuss.

They all tactfully left the ancestral hall and stood guard at the main gate to prevent others from approaching and disturbing them.

Lin Yaohua chuckled and sat down on the stool next to the coffee table. "Big brother, we've really struck gold this time!"

Meeting Lin Zonghui's inquisitive gaze, Lin Yaodong smiled and said, "This batch of vegetables and meat sold for a full HK$45 in Hong Kong. I used that money to buy 180 color TVs."

Upon hearing this, Lin Zonghui immediately began to calculate the profits from this trip.

He knew that he had spent HK$25 to buy the vegetables and meat and sold them for HK$45, so he made a profit of HK$20 on this trip.

Moreover, he also received 180 color TVs in return, allowing Lin Yaodong to earn another 18 RMB.

This profit was earned by Lin Yaodong after his trip to Hong Kong.

If they make this trip every few days, it's no wonder the villagers of Tazhai are being swept away.

Lin Yaohua and Lin Zonghui had been at odds since childhood, and seeing Lin Zonghui's shocked expression made him feel incredibly relieved.

However, when he returned, Lin Yaodong warned him that in the future, for the development of Tazhai, they should unite with Lin Zonghui's third branch of the family.

Lin Yaohua understood this as well; only when the entire Tazhai village was united as one could they be unafraid of others' covetousness.

Lin Yaodong glared at Lin Yaohua, then smiled and said to Lin Zonghui, "Zonghui, I called you here today to discuss how to divide this money."

Lin Zonghui's pupils contracted sharply, and he waved his hand, saying, "Brother Dong, I didn't do anything, I can't take this money!"

Lin Yaodong reached out and patted Lin Zonghui on the shoulder, and said with a soft laugh, "Don't worry, there will be plenty of things for you to do in the future. First of all, you need to take charge of purchasing meat and vegetables in the surrounding villages and towns."

At this point, Lin Yaodong paused, "Don't think this is easy. The supply from the surrounding villages and towns is limited. You have to find a way to get more supplies, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to Hong Kong."

Lin Zonghui wanted to say that it was not appropriate to entrust this matter to him, but Lin Yaodong spoke first: "Yaohua also has his own things to do. The vegetables and meat you buy back still need to be delivered to Hong Kong by Yaohua and then brought back the electrical appliances. You can't expect me to do everything personally, can you?"

Lin Zonghui quickly shook his head and said, "Brother Dong, that's not what I meant..."

"Alright!" Lin Yaodong waved his hand to interrupt him. "You two should support each other from now on. I will also visit Hong Kong and Lei Sheng more often so that we can have more opportunities to benefit from our proximity and get more projects for Tazhai. After all, smuggling can't be done forever."

Hearing Lin Yaodong say this, Lin Zonghui had no more objections.

Smuggling is only a temporary measure; the fact that it is not strictly controlled now does not mean that it can continue in the future.

What Tazhai needs are legal and sustainable projects.

...

Hong Kong.

After finishing their morning tea, Lei Hao and his group were about to leave.

Big D was being driven by Mao Chang, intending to return to his pine forest villa to catch up on sleep.

Lei Hao did not intend to go home, but instead planned to go to HSBC Bank.

When Master Su and Dongguan Boy saw that their boss hadn't gone back to rest, they were too embarrassed to suggest that they go back to sleep.

Moreover, they are at the peak of their energy; they can stay up all night, or even two or three all-nighters and still be full of energy.

As soon as he got in the car, Lei Hao asked, "Dongguan boy, do you remember Hu Ji Roast Meat, that very famous restaurant in Yau Ma Tei?"

Besides dealing with Lin Yaodong, Lei Hao, who was in charge of the order business, also had no intention of letting go.

However, he still needs to go to HSBC, so he left the task of gathering intelligence to Dongguan Boy.

After recalling for a moment, Dongguan Boy said, "Of course I remember. That char siu shop is quite famous in Yau Ma Tei, and the owner's name is also very interesting. He is called Hu Ah You."

At this point, Dongguan Boy realized something was amiss and asked, "Brother Hao, what did Hu Ayou do to offend you?"

Not only was Dongguanzi puzzled, but even Master Su was also confused. Hu Ayou was just a nobody, so why would Lei Hao have to ask him about something?

To say that Hu Ayou offended Lei Hao was just a joke Dongguanzi made earlier.

Hu Ayou, such a petty person, had no chance of offending Lei Hao.

Lei Hao shook his head. "He didn't offend me, but I've noticed he's been acting strangely lately. Go and investigate him thoroughly."

The Dongguan guy was a little stunned. What was there to investigate about a roast meat vendor?

But this was something Lei Hao personally ordered, so even if Dongguan Zai had doubts, he would carry it out unconditionally.

Chapter 44 The Dongguan Guy Who Almost Peeled His Shit

Lei Hao was worried that Dongguan Boy might be careless and overlook key details, so he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Dongguan Boy, you have to be careful of Hu Ayou. The last time I saw him, I sensed that he was full of murderous intent."

"Although I'm not sure who he wants to kill, judging from his twisted and perverted eyes, it's unlikely that killing one or two people would be enough."

Upon hearing this, Master Su understood what Lei Hao meant and his eyes widened instantly: "Brother Hao, are you saying that Hu Ayou is very likely to become a psychopathic serial killer!"

Dongguan Boy didn't understand Lei Hao's words at first, but after being reminded by his advisor Su, he couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine and his face was full of disbelief: "Brother Hao, could that good-for-nothing Hu Ayou really do such a thing?"

“That’s hard to say!” Lei Hao shook his head and said meaningfully, “You know, honest people can become very extreme in their words and actions when they are pushed to the limit. You need to pay special attention to what he’s been doing recently, and whether anyone around him has gone missing or been gone for days.”

As Lei Hao's words became increasingly cryptic, Dongguan Boy and Master Su exchanged bewildered glances.

However, both of them knew that Lei Hao was never one to speak carelessly, so they were also curious whether Hu Ayou would do what Lei Hao said.

As the car drove through Yau Ma Tei, Dongguanzi hurriedly got out to inquire about Hu Ayou's whereabouts.

The advisor, Su, drove Lei Hao to HSBC Bank.

"Brother Hao, what business do we need to conduct at HSBC?" After getting out of the car and following Lei Hao into HSBC, Master Su couldn't help but ask with some curiosity.

After all, he is a professional lawyer. If Lei Hao is really here to discuss some business, he wants to be able to prepare in advance so as not to mess things up when it comes to doing things.

Lei Hao shook his head: "The business that needed to be done has already been done. As for what to do, just follow me."

Seeing that Lei Hao was unwilling to say more, Master Su did not press him further and obediently followed him to the VIP room.

Upon entering the VIP room of HSBC, the clerk Su saw a sizable electronic screen on one wall, with a stern-faced official intently watching the curves fluctuating on the screen.

"Lei Sheng, the short positions of 4 lots have been established, with an average cost of around 26600 points," Luo Minsheng said excitedly.

Lei Hao nodded in satisfaction, "The time is almost up, it's almost time for us to reap the rewards!"

Listening to the conversation between the two, Master Su was somewhat confused.

Through Lei Hao's introduction, I learned that the guy who looked like the Black-faced God was named Luo Minsheng, and that Lei Hao had specially chosen him as the trader.

He was helping Lei Hao manage his investment in Nikkei index futures.

Especially after learning that Lei Hao had invested $3 million in Nikkei index futures.

This caused Master Su's eyes to widen instantly, his face filled with shock and disbelief.

Even Dongguan Boy, who had accompanied Lei Hao on the last mission, always thought that Lei Hao had sneaked into Liu Yaozu's villa in the middle of the night in order to obtain information about him.

They had no idea it was to obtain those $3 million in bearer bonds.

Master Su wasn't too surprised that Lei Hao had invested in Nikkei index futures.

Lei Hao himself studied finance, and with the Japanese stock market currently booming, even someone like Master Su, who doesn't buy stocks, knows to buy when prices are rising.

However, he learned from Lei Hao and Luo Minsheng's conversation that they were not buying long but shorting.

This nearly gave the advisor Su a heart attack. Trembling, he asked Lei Hao, "Brother Hao, are you sure it's okay for you to short the Japanese gold index futures?"

Lei Hao and Luo Minsheng exchanged a glance and burst into laughter, leaving the clerk Su completely baffled.

After laughing for a while, Luo Minsheng took the initiative to explain on Lei Hao's behalf: "Lei Sheng judged that the daily average index would pull back in the near future, which is why he asked me to place a short order."

"At first I didn't understand it either, but after observing the trend of Nikkei index futures in the past few days, I think there is a very high probability of a pullback."

The advisor, Su, looked blank, clearly not understanding these things, but he did understand what Luo Minsheng meant: Lei Hao's judgment was very likely correct.

Neither Lei Hao nor Luo Minsheng intended to explain to the layman Su. Since he didn't understand, they decided to just watch from the sidelines and keep quiet.

...

Yau Ma Tei.

After getting off the bus, Dongguanzi arrived at the street where Hu Ji Roast Meat was located.

Seeing that the shops were not yet open, Dongguan became suspicious and hurriedly inquired with the neighboring shops nearby.
