Courtyard houses: Those who are capable are rewarded, and many children bring many blessings.

"Second Brother, why do you feel like this isn't supporting us in building our business? It's more like we're being exiled." Even Niu Chengguo, who usually doesn't like to think things through, started to ponder the issue.

Niu Chengzhi put his arm around his shoulder and said, "So you were tricked into coming here by your dad? We two brothers were just sent here as a shogun."

Look around, it's deserted and there's nowhere to play. What else could this be but exile?

What heinous thing have you done that made us, your father, exile you too?

"I... I didn't do anything wrong. I just like to get into fights sometimes, and I always try to smooth things over!"

"Never photographed young women or newlyweds before?"

"Why are you filming there? Is it more fun than fighting?"

"Are you even my own son? How come you have no interest in women?"

"It was my own father, absolutely his own father. My dad beat me really hard."

"What kind of logic is that? Just because I hit you hard doesn't mean I'm your biological child?"

"Of course! If I weren't his biological father, Dad definitely wouldn't dare hit me like that. If I knew I had a biological father, and he hit me like that, wouldn't I run to find my real father? Second brother, don't just ask me questions, what bad things did you do?"

"I didn't do anything wrong, I just didn't want to live according to their ideas, so I was sent here. From now on, follow my second brother, and I'll let you taste what it's like to be with a foreign woman."

"Foreign women are no good; they're covered in long hair and aren't as pretty as our girls."

"Haven't you ever photographed young women before?"

"Xiao Jun said that taking pictures is a violent means, and if someone sues you, you'll end up in jail, and you might even get shot. My friend attracts girls with his own charm, that's called free love, and I'm not afraid of being sued even by the King of Heaven."

"Damn, have you ever actually slept with a woman or not?"

"Second brother, you're wrong to say that. That's disrespectful to women. How can you call it playing around? We're mutually attracted."

"You little rascal, you were just pretending to be a scoundrel! You fooled me just now."

"I'm not lying to you. Sometimes I feel like my brain isn't working properly, especially when I'm fighting. All I think about is taking the other person down, and I don't think about anything else."

"Come on, you haven't told me a single truth. Have you been smoking or drinking?"

"I brought some, why?"

"Haven't you noticed that there isn't a single small shop in our factory?"

"It seems so. That would be bad. Whether I drink or not doesn't matter, I just have a strong craving for the wine."

"There must be another way..."

Niu Dazhuang is going to do something worthwhile this time. Whether it's one oil well or two, it's all the same. Since he's made a good start, he might as well open a few more oil wells in the vicinity.

Reina was worried that Niu Dashan wouldn't have a big appetite, but when she heard that he was going to continue to increase investment, she was sure that their cooperation would be very effective.

Borrowing money in Malaysia, mining its resources, making money, and then repaying the loan... it's practically a business with no initial investment; anyone who does it will get rich.

Of course, these Russians are also quite ruthless; they spend half of their profits on bribing officials and their associates.

This is a classic example: the country suffers losses while the individual prospers.

"Damn it! Renena, what did you just say? The woman you made me sleep with tonight is your brother Yuri's secretary?"

"What's the big deal? My brother has more than one secretary."

"Is this woman and your brother innocent?"

"That's just Eastern thinking. Polina has the freedom to have boyfriends..."

"That Polina is something else. Does her word carry more weight than yours in front of your brother?"

"Although my brother and I are siblings from the same mother, we don't see each other as often as they do. It can't hurt if she says good things about us to my brother from time to time."

"Don't do this again. Before you connect me with someone, tell me who the other person is."

"I told you because I was worried it would put pressure on you and affect your performance. Don't worry, I wouldn't do anything to you. I'll call Tania and the other girl over tonight to calm you down."

Niu Dazhuang didn't know who was playing whom, but anyway, everyone was happy and in a good mood.

Reina then adopted this strategy: she had Niu Dazhuang handle the women around Yuri.

The man settled things with money.

Of course, Yuri also gained something; he got a 20% stake in any project he personally approved.

Now Niu Dazhuang just keeps drilling oil wells outside Sakhalin Island, taking in everything from coal to timber.

Especially coal; they contracted an open-pit coal mine called the Sun Open-Pit Mine (Russian name: Solnzev Open-Pit Mine).

Even if the market is bad, you can still make money by selling the open-pit mine.

Timber prices have been good lately, so Niu Dazhuang telegraphed Niu Chengzhi in Sakhalin Island, asking him to set up another timber export company there.

In September, the Hiroshima Treaty between the Japanese and the United States arrived as scheduled. Let the dust settle.

In July 1986, the five 30-ton cruise ships that Niu Chengrui had ordered were delivered, and his ocean shipping company was officially launched.

The oil refinery in Dalian was also completed, and the two brothers began their collaboration...

Niu Dazhuang took action, this time bringing ten bodyguards. In the past two years, Niu Dazhuang has also taken over a squad of retired soldiers.

Qian Dafu is an old acquaintance, but Qian Xiaohao is still as unreliable as ever, although his relationship with his father has improved considerably.

This time, Niu Dazhuang not only bought the three apartments he had previously rented, but also all the apartments above that floor.

Niu Dazhuang began to meet with the heads of international financial institutions in Tokyo, such as Standard Chartered Bank and Citibank.

There are transaction fees for exchanging currency, and every bank is happy to help Niu Dazhuang exchange it for offshore US dollars.

By extending the process and exchanging currency multiple times, it took nearly a month to convert all 1.5 trillion yen in his hands into US dollars, which, after deducting transaction fees, amounted to approximately 100 billion US dollars.

In nearly two years, he had only earned $40 billion. Niu Dazhuang looked at the numbers sitting in the bank and curled his lip.

My heart was completely unmoved.

The old money in Britain and America had already discovered Niu Dazhuang, and seeing that he didn't use leverage, they managed to swindle 40 billion US dollars from him.

Everyone felt that with the decline of the economy, the former investment genius's $40 billion investment wasn't much compared to the huge market of Japan. Therefore, there was no need to resort to dirty tricks.

100 billion in cash is a lot, but for these old money people, it's really nothing special. At their level, money is just a number; connections and power are what they pursue.

Feeling listless.

"Damn it, I miscalculated. If I had known this would happen, I should have increased the leverage. Old Qian, take me to buy a villa in the suburbs, somewhere quiet. I need to go into seclusion and think things through."

"Boss, why aren't you happy about making money?"

"I miscalculated and lost tens of billions. Do you think I can be happy about that?"
