Despite being incredibly wealthy, I want to be a prosecutor.

The Grand Harbour Hotel in Wan Chai, Hong Kong.

Located on the waterfront in Wan Chai, the hotel is seamlessly connected to the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC), making it Asia's first "conference + hotel" complex, precisely meeting the needs of business travelers.

Designed by the American architectural firm SOM, the building features a streamlined glass curtain wall and became an iconic landmark on the Hong Kong Island skyline when it opened in 1989.

One of the two presidential suites on the 36th floor, 410 square meters. Zhou Hong was used to luxury. Compared to his own mansion in Bangkok and the River Estuary No. 1 Villa, it was just passable.

Upon arriving in Hong Kong, lawyer Cai Gong parted ways with Zhou Hong and stayed at the airport to wait for the two children.

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the presidential suite, Zhou Hong admired the bustling street scene of Hong Kong.

The footsteps behind her were those of Elena, the eldest of the triplets: "Chairman Hong, all the formalities are done." As the eldest of the triplets and the head of the flight attendants, she was somewhat like Zhou Hong's personal butler. After getting off the private jet, she changed into a red halter dress, which made her look even more sexy and beautiful, showing off her supermodel figure of nearly 1.8 meters tall.

As soon as she finished speaking, a "ding" sounded, a voice from the depths of her soul.

"HEPING Messenger, activate local region?"

After a moment's hesitation, Zhou Hong chose "Yes".

"Ding! The third off-site residential area is activated!"

"Third Outlying Area (Vacant): Annual Charitable Fund Amount: US$320 million; Annual Public Fund Amount: US$320 million."

The empty space became Hong Kong.

Okay, as expected, the "country or region" is a niche area, which is related to reality.

Zhou Hong's phone beeped with a text message. He glanced at it and saw that several remittances had entered his Citibank account: two $160 million payments, two $320 million payments, and some miscellaneous transaction fees.

The first two payments of 160 million were to make up for the charity and public funds during the "white service" phase, while the latter two payments were for the charity and public funds during the current "active service" phase.

Sure enough, it's better to activate servants and "residence areas" as late as possible, because the funds will be replenished from the "white service" stage, and it's calculated based on your current buffs.

"Ding! In developed areas, charitable funds can be used as public funds!"

"Oh?" Zhou Hong nodded. It was very concise and clear: In developed countries and regions, the government should manage taxpayers' taxes and establish a good welfare system. There is no need to use the global resources accumulated by the system to help the so-called poor in these regions. Their poor are different from the poor who really need help. Local governments should provide adequate support to be considered qualified governments.

Then look at the area module:

First Suburban Area (Elephant Kingdom): Annual Charity Fund Amount: 100 Days' Salary; Annual Public Fund Amount: 100 Days' Salary.

Second Suburban Area (Japan): Annual allowance for charitable foundations: 100 days' salary; Annual allowance for public funds: 100 days' salary.

Third Suburban Area (Hong Kong): Annual allowance for charitable funds: 100 days' salary; Annual allowance for public funds: 100 days' salary.

Fourth Suburban Area (Vacant): Annual quota for charitable fund: 100 days' salary; Annual quota for public funds: 100 days' salary.

Fifth Suburban Area (Vacant): Annual quota for charitable fund: 100 days' salary; Annual quota for public funds: 100 days' salary.

Sixth Suburban Area (Vacant): Annual quota for charitable fund: 100 days' salary; Annual quota for public funds: 100 days' salary.

..................................................................................................................

Main Region (China) (Welfare benefits are valid globally):

Annual limit for the charitable fund: 300 days' salary;

Annual allowance for official robes (clothing) and public funds: 300 days' salary;

Annual allowance for grain (food) allowance: 300 days' salary;

Miscellaneous (housing) allowance annual amount: 300 days' salary;

Carriage and Horse Module (Line):

Bus seat 1: "Xiao Jian" business jet.

Bus seat 2: Vacant.

Bus seat 3: Vacant.

……

Bus seat 6: Vacant.

Expand parking spaces:

Parking space 1: Not activated (will be automatically activated during the management stage).

Parking space 2: Not activated (will be automatically activated from the ninth grade stage).

Parking space 3: Not activated (will be automatically activated from the fifth grade stage).

Zhou Hong studied the various modules and fell into deep thought.

……

A black minivan, a modified version of the European Sprinter, was parked in the parking lot of Hong Kong International Airport.

This Sprinter is the European standard long-wheelbase version, with a length of 6.3 meters.

Unlike the Sprinter later produced in China through joint ventures, the long-wheelbase version was basically 5.9 meters long.

In China, vehicles with a length of 6 meters or less are classified as either blue or yellow license plates.

The vehicle is 2.93 meters high, with an interior height of 1.90 meters, so even Zhou Hong only needs to bend his head slightly to stand upright inside.

The high-roof European standard version of the Sprinter has a 7+2 seating layout.

The front cabin has two seats: the driver's seat and the front passenger seat. The rear cabin, which can be completely separated from the front cabin, has five standard seats plus two foldable secretary seats.

This custom-modified Sprinter has a rear cabin that's like a luxurious little living room.

The four business class seats can be rotated to face each other, creating a space suitable for business meetings.

The two seats at the back are close together without any gap between them, and can be laid flat to form an extremely comfortable single bed.

The space next to the two seats has been transformed into a washroom. The washbasin, toilet and shower system are cleverly arranged, taking up little space but having all the necessary functions.

Between the two front seats is a pop-out mini-fridge, and in front of the two seats is a folding coffee table that can be retracted into the side. In front of that, the secretary's seat can be folded down to become a leg rest cushion. After the secretary's seat is folded into the partition between the front and rear cabins, a large plasma screen and a sound system for the audio-visual entertainment system are revealed, both of which are collector's items.

The cost of modifying this car reached over 300,000 US dollars, not including tariffs and other expenses.

At this moment, Zhou Hong was sitting inside, browsing emails on his PAD offline.

Today's handheld computers are expensive and have limited applications, but Zhou Hong really likes these kinds of electronic products.

"Sir, it seems the person you mentioned has arrived!" Da Ye, who was sitting properly in the slightly narrow secretary's seat opposite, pressed the shutter button, and the black door of the business van slowly opened.

Zhou Hong glanced outside, smiled, and got out of the car.

"dad!"

As soon as Zhou Hongfu appeared, shouts of surprise rang out. The two young figures who were walking behind Lawyer Caigong quickened their pace, and the little figure in front even started running.

Zhou Hong smiled and opened his arms to her.

The adorable young girl running ahead excitedly has long brown hair styled into a cute and charming high ponytail with colorful beads. She wears playful little sunglasses, a black and white T-shirt paired with a light blue denim jumpsuit, revealing her slender and fair legs. Her snow-white socks are tied into lace flowers at her delicate ankles, and she completes the look with fashionable and cute pink canvas shoes. The mixed-race beauty looks even more innocent, cute, lively, and irresistible.

It was indeed Papa Ya.

Zhou Hong laughed, "My little bean sprout is so beautiful!" As usual, he put one arm around her knees and picked her up. Papa Ya giggled happily and hugged Zhou Hong's neck affectionately.

Zhou Hong looked at the super beautiful girl following behind Papa Ya. Compared to Papa Ya's carefree behavior, she was a little reserved. She wore a blue and white Japanese-style tracksuit and cute white Crocs. He didn't know if she dressed like that on purpose, but it made her look even more pure and sweet.

"Brother..." Yuzuki Tika lowered her head and walked up to Zhou Hong.

Zhou Hong was delighted. He bent down and lifted her up by her knees with his other arm, laughing, "I'll measure her size later to see if she's a little bigger..."

Yuzuki Tika's face immediately flushed red, but it seemed as if her heart had finally sunk to the bottom, and she was no longer anxious. She reached out her hands and hugged Zhou Hong's neck, just like Papa Ya.

"What are you talking about?" Papa Ya asked curiously.

"You'll know later..." Zhou Hong said casually, then paused, looking at Papa Ya's innocent little face, a slight sense of guilt rising in his heart.

He coughed lightly and nodded to Attorney Cai Gong, who was walking over, saying, "You've worked hard!"

The two children arrived in Hong Kong escorted by staff from Hongye Trading Co., Ltd. (Japan).

I'm starting to feel that these regional branches are more like agencies that run errands for me.

That's true; they didn't expect these companies to make a profit anyway. They were just using up their own "public funds" quota. In developed areas, it's more like charitable funds plus public funds—it's all their own private money.

For example, in Japan, this savings are mainly used to purchase good properties to establish themselves in the local area.

When I have a larger annual quota in the future, I can invest in some stable industries, buy real estate, or buy some stocks that I am optimistic about in the long term to play around with.

As he carried the two little ones into the car, he noticed the unusual expression on the pretty face of "Da Ye," a blonde with blue eyes, who was standing respectfully beside the car. Zhou Hong smiled slightly to himself.

Da Ye sighed inwardly. No wonder he seemed completely uninterested in his three sisters. So that's why. This boss's mentality is quite twisted.

Moreover, the boss is making her run errands all sorts of times to test her potential, probably wanting her to become a housekeeper-like figure.

This is certainly a wonderful thing, but it also means that the three sisters' previous survival path will undergo a significant change.

Real bosses would never have close relationships with their personal butlers or secretaries, because that would create many problems, even big ones.

Of course, it's not that you can't cross the line, but once you do, the relationship changes, and you'll inevitably be transferred from that important position that could affect the boss's decisions.

While Da Ye was lost in thought, she followed Lawyer Cai Gong into the car and closed the door.

"Let's go see our new home here!" Zhou Hong said to the two little ones with a smile.

"Wow, does Daddy have a home in Hong Kong too?" Papa Ya was extremely excited. When she was a child, Hong Kong entertainment was all the rage in Southeast Asia, and she longed for Hong Kong so much.

Zhou Hong smiled and nodded: "Yes."

"Good brother" Xin bought and renovated the luxury house two years ago.

It seems that the "good brother" made huge investments and squandered his wealth in the last few years, and then the family lost power and collapsed. It truly has the meaning of "its rise was rapid, and its fall was sudden".

He has already made a pact with his "good brother" that even if the overall acquisition fails, he will still buy this luxury house in Hong Kong.

Of course, deep down, I was convinced that this deal was bound to succeed.

It will inevitably succeed; the only question is how much you will ultimately invest.

"Good Brother" now trusts himself a lot. After all, he suddenly has a hundred million US dollars to do things for him, even though it's through his fifth wife. He also signed a short-term loan agreement with his fifth wife.

But ultimately, he knew that the money was given to him by himself.

He also signed an agreement with him, stating that if the merger fails, he will also buy his mansion.

$4700 million was deducted from the loan he received from the Fifth Lady.

Because the Fifth Madam borrowed 5 million US dollars from him.

Frankly speaking, if the acquisition fails, it will definitely resemble a triangular debt situation and could leave a complete mess.

But his actions clearly convinced his good brother to trust him.

Currently, the project he has found for himself is a "private island," and he is negotiating the price.

As for the luxury mansion in Hong Kong, my good brother told the people there that the mansion had changed owners, the new owner was coming soon, and the change of ownership was just waiting for the final official procedures. In fact, the mansion had already been sold to my good brother, and the money had been received.

This Pentair minivan is the vehicle he provided for this mansion that has never been occupied.

In addition, the mansion also owns a Bentley Skyactiv sports car.

Fortunately, it collapsed quickly, suffering a major setback before even moving in; otherwise, who knows how many luxury cars it would have bought in Hong Kong.

……

19 Barker Road, Victoria Peak, Hong Kong.

Hidden in the lush, dense forest, the buildings are partially obscured. If one can pass through the heavily guarded gates and venture inside, one will find that it is a seven-story luxury villa with five-story annex buildings on both sides.

Like many luxury homes on The Peak, in this day and age, it is difficult for ordinary Hong Kong citizens to know who owns these top-tier, mysterious mansions. Of course, even ordinary citizens face numerous restrictions when entering Barker Road.

The two little ones ran happily up and down the stairs. Zhou Hong watched helplessly. Papa Ya was genuinely happy and curious. Yumu, the little teacher, really was a performer.

Who on earth said she has no acting skills?! Step forward, or I'll kill you! Do you even know her?!

Lawyer Cai Gong and Da Ye, led by their Filipino maid, toured the mansion. The two women appeared reserved, but their hearts were filled with turbulent emotions.

This hilltop mansion, valued at hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars and overlooking Victoria Harbour, is definitely top-tier in the hilltop area, where Asia's wealthy are concentrated. How much is the market value of many large companies now?

Standing before Zhou Hong was an elegant woman who looked to be in her fifties. She was dressed simply, but her demeanor was extraordinary.

She was actually older than she looked; she was born in the late 1930s and had been a maid in a wealthy family since the Japanese occupation.

Today, she is a well-known figure in top social circles and among housekeepers.

Outsiders call her "Seventh Auntie," and she has always served the family at 19 Barker Road, Victoria Peak.

Unfortunately, the old owner's family fortune declined, and the new generation of young owners simply found her nagging and annoying, so they sold the mansion and fired her, leaving her almost homeless.

In fact, she had accumulated a considerable amount of wealth, but once she got used to a certain lifestyle, it was difficult for her to change.

The buyer from Xiangguo was also not interested in her, and since the place was constantly being expanded, the buyer hardly ever came.

Hearing that the house had changed owners on the 19th and that they were visiting the new house today, she came here again and offered herself up.

She scrutinized Zhou Hong, and Zhou Hong looked back at her.

"Some of the Filipino maids here are yours..." Zhou Hong said with a smile.

"Master, don't worry, I've gone to great lengths to wait for you. Even if you don't hire me, you'll still hear news from other houses, but they'll never hear from you. Of course, you won't be interested in our gossip either."

"Times have changed, and everything here has changed. Why are you still so persistent?" Zhou Hong shook his head in disbelief.

Indeed, the mansion that Xin bought was only a four-story building, and it has now been demolished and rebuilt.

If it weren't for the regulations of the Special Administrative Region government requiring an application for changes, I'm afraid they would have built these seven floors even higher.

The height and development area of ​​the land that have been applied for so far are already the limit.

The surrounding lush forests are largely within the luxury residential area, but according to the SAR government's regulations, they cannot be changed arbitrarily, and there is also a responsibility to maintain the growth of greenery, including strict regulations on tree types.

"The soil here has a different flavor..." Granny Qi said quietly.

Zhou Hong shuddered. Although it was difficult for him to empathize with an old lady born in the 1930s who had spent her whole life as a servant, he thought, "Don't scare me like that."

However, he nodded and said, "Grandma Qi, you can stay if you'd like."

Having an elderly person who is particularly knowledgeable about the rules of high society guide me and help me manage this mansion is not a bad thing.

Granny Qi was taken aback, probably not expecting it to be so simple; the two of them exchanged no more than five sentences in total.

"I don't need a salary. If there's one thing you're not satisfied with, you can fire me anytime without any severance pay." This was originally one of Granny Qi's trump cards, but before the conversation even got to that point, the deal was struck.

He added, "I have over three million Hong Kong dollars in savings, and a 2,000-square-foot apartment. When I feel I can no longer serve the male escorts, I will go to a nursing home myself. If there is anything left... please do charity for me." Actually, his original plan was to leave it all to the new owner, but it was obvious that this young male escort didn't care about the money at all.

"It's not time to talk about that yet, Aunt Qi. Looking at your health, let's discuss your will in twenty or thirty years," Zhou Hong said with a smile. "I probably won't be able to come back more than a few times a year, so I'll leave this place in your care from now on."

Granny Qi was taken aback. She had heard that after the renovation, the house was now worth four or five hundred million Hong Kong dollars. Did this wealthy family buy it just for occasional vacations?

Zhou Hong could see what she was thinking. In fact, he was definitely not someone who could look down on the strength of those established Hong Kong tycoons, but his wealth structure was different and his spending logic was different. Therefore, from a normal person's perspective, his actions showed that his financial resources were unfathomable.

It wasn't easy to explain, so Zhou Hong smiled and said, "Then, would you please show me around, Granny Qi?"

"Yes, Master!" Granny Qi's face lit up with enthusiasm, and for a moment she seemed to have become twenty years younger.
