<h4>Chapter 496: Chapter 406: Harvest Season (2018! Keep Going!)_1</h4><h4></h4>


    After three days of tallying.


    The harvest from taking over the two territories was finally calcted.


    Seeing the final tally, Tang Qing could only heave another sigh at the truth of the phrase: we get rich by a fluke, horses get fat by night feeding.


    To right wrongs, to act as the defender of justice.


    Indeed, a good money-making business, it’s just that there aren’t that many wrongs to right, this ’business’ cannot be done frequently either.


    The total value of all types of jade, jewelry, gold, gems, antiques, cash, and other items confiscated from this operation exceeded 300 million dors, with cash in various national currencies exceeding 50 million dors alone. Tang Qing was astonished, how could Mara’s guys be so fat?


    Is it really that lucrative to deal with this stuff?


    The answer is


    Yes.


    In this world, just how lucrative the dark world is, only insiders know.


    Take casinos for example, which rake in money by the bucketful every day, outsiders simply cannot imagine the speed and efficiency with which they earn money. Once a shy local tyrant walks in, he walks out with nothing left but his underwear and the bandage around his waist, much harm done.


    Small bets bring joy,rge bets harm the body?


    Nonesense.


    A bet is a bet.


    Even joy?


    Unless you set the daily betting loss limit below your daily earnings, then it could barely be considered a joy. If you bet all in with your house, car, business, it’s called stupidity.


    In his previous life, Tang Qing once knew a local tyrant, who had assets amounting to hundreds of millions, even billions, but had one principle: the moment he loses more than three thousand RMB in a single day of ying cards, he immediately stops regardless of the circumstances.


    Drinking tea, chatting, discussing business, singing songs are all eptable. There are so many things men can do together. If your only pastime is gambling, it’s because your inner world is too empty.


    This is the purpose behind Tang Qing’s ’Pixiu n’, you sit there smiling and sweeping in money, weing wealth from all directions, counting money till your hands get tired, even engaging in high-interest lending, that’s really unscrupulous. So Tang Qing is nning to win all their dirty money through the ’Pixiu n’ to let off some steam.


    Now there’s the Asia Dor. The robots, which used to be the biggest cost in future ns, will no longer need to be purchased with foreign currency. As for the money won from the casinos in the future, he wouldn’t have much use for it so Tang Qing ns to put all that money into charity. The Little Angel Charity Foundation is just one of them.


    And he has arger n, but he’s not in a hurry yet. There’s still two months till the next ’harvest.’


    Next time.


    He ns to triple the target of the ’Pixiu n’ and extend the duration to a month.


    Three billion dors.


    Above two forty billion RMB.


    He will let the casino bosses around the world feel once again just how cold and long the ’Cold Winter’ is.


    But it’s still early. Only a month has passed. The wheat hasn’t grown, let’s wait till it ripens.


    Back to the subject.


    As for the more than 300 million dors in assets, except for the unspendable cash and gold, which must all be used as coteral for the issuance of Asia Dors, the rest of the items need to be disposed of. The proceeds will be used as ’foreign exchange reserves’ for the Myanmar Bank, to be used for trade settlements with Wangsa and other enterprises.


    Tang Kai, his second uncle, is in the jewelry business, so thepanies under the Myanmar Bank Group haven’t added jewelry to their offerings.


    Tang Qing looked at the mountains of various kinds of jade and jadeite, and various gemstones and agates, chuckled lightly to himself. He wondered if his second uncle would be able to handle such arge inventory this time.


    What about a post-payment approach?


    Tang Qing lowered his head to think.


    No.


    That’s overdoing it, it would arouse suspicion.


    After pondering for a bit, Tang Qing still decided not to adopt the post-payment approach. He didck money within the territory in the past, and Tang Qing himself couldn’t muster much money, so he had to quickly cash out these valuable items to obtain urgently needed funds.


    But now with the Asia Dor, robots and equipment do not require other currencies, so the demand for funds is not as strong. There’s no need to sell everything off all at once.


    Besides, there’s no hurry now, they can be stored in the warehouse and sold slowly, and exclusivity is granted to his Second Uncle.


    There is the protection of the Wangsa family in Thand.


    Plus, the potential connection to the strong force of nearly eight thousand soldiers here after integration, it’s impossible for any idiot to dare interfere with his Second Uncle’s business.


    All those green-eyed ones can do is watch agape.


    ...


    f?eewe?n?ve?


    Elsewhere.


    Thand.


    At Tang Kai’s home.


    It waste, but Tang Kai had yet to go to bed. He was watching a Thai soap opera with his wife and daughter. Although he had no interest in such things at his age, it depended on who he was watching with.


    As long as the family was together.


    Whatever they watched would never be tiresome.


    Tang Kai felt his life slowly reaching its peak, with a happy family and a thriving business.


    "Ding-ding-ding..."


    The personal phone rang.


    Tang Kai took it out and was surprised to see that it was from the ’Leader Ling.’


    He hurriedly stepped outside of the vi to take the call.


    After all, this was a call from the God of Fortune.


    "Leader Ling, how are you? What can I do for you?" Tang Kai chuckled. He had no ill feelings whatsoever. This was the man who had elevated him to the status of Thand’s foremost jewelry wholesaler.


    "Mr. Tang, I want to discuss something with you. We have anotherrge batch of gems and jewelry that we need to sell, but we’re not in a hurry. So, if you’re short of stock in the future, you cane directly to us and purchase. We’ll keep the price the same and are always ready to serve. Also, you’re still our exclusive supplier," Ling ryed Tang Qing’s decision.


    He dialed this call knowing that Tang Kai was still awake; otherwise, he wouldn’t be so incongruous to ring at this hour, Tang Qing knew better indeed.


    After hearing the first two phrases, Tang Kai nearly had a heart attack, scared that there was an issue with the payment of the transaction from more than half a month ago or perhaps they nned to halt their supply.


    But after hearing the rest.


    He knew, that a massive chunk of good fortune had fallen right on top of his head.


    While he was curious how they managed to secure goods for transactions so quickly this time, he pondered about the new Xin’an Town in Ling’s territory and the basic construction there. He guessed Ling might have run short on money and had to start destructive mining.


    But who cares? That’s their business. Though he pitied those mines, he didn’t feel like he had the ce to offer advice.


    Perfect, Leader Ling. I’lle and have a look after some time. Thank you for your trust," Tang Kai was grateful, indeed. What a prestigious status it was to be the exclusive supplier.


    "Sure, okay, Boss Tang, get some rest soon," Ling was straightforward, not wasting any time.


    Alright, same to you, goodbye," Tang Kai responded. This kind of straightforward, no-nonsensemunication approach left Tang Kai speechless, yet it gave him peace of mind during business dealings. The worst kind of business partners were those who started calling each other ’brothers’ and vouched for each other dearly right from the beginning. Those were hard to manage.


    Doing business with Ling was simple. It was smooth.


    After the call, Tang Kai returned to the room.


    "Honey, what happened? Who was that?" Tang Qing’s Second Aunt, Youman, asked.


    It’s the biggest supplier from Myanmar. It’s good news. They said they’re going to exclusively supply us in the future. We can go to their ce and buy whenever we want," Tang Kai exined simply.


    Youman was aware of this ’Leader Ling’. She knew he was the cornerstone of their family business. She was thrilled, not for the money, but because her husband wouldn’t have to work so hard anymore. She knew how challenging it was for a Chinese businessman to grow their business here. Her husband’s hair was slowly turning white, and it pained her to see him like that, yet she felt helpless and could only manage the housework and take care of their daughter properly.


    Everything changed overnight. Her husband suddenly had a powerful supplier. The number of white hairs on her husband’s head ceased to increase, and that’s what made her happy.


    "But weren’t they urgently short on finance? Why aren’t they in a hurry to mize this?" the perceptive Youman asked.


    Building a town is a massive financial drain. Gems and jewelry were their only sources of ie, and they rashly confirmed an exclusive supplier and said you cane and get the goods whenever you want. That doesn’t look like they’re nning to stop halfway.


    At her words.


    Tang Kai also spotted the hidden implications. Indeed, he had previously thought that Ling was destructively exploiting the mines, but if that was the case, they wouldn’t have left it there for sale; anyone cane and buy it anytime. This felt a bit irrational.


    Was there some insider information on this?


    Tang Kai frowned.


    He couldn’t put his finger on it.


    So he had to ask.


    Otherwise, he won’t be able to sleep tonight.


    Subsequently, Tang Kai dialed Wangsa’s number. He knew that Wangsa was a night owl who insisted on a fixed sleeping schedule. It was still early; he must be studying his furniture. Yes, studying furniture. Tang Kai also thought it was unbelievable for someone of Wangsa’s status to have this hobby.


    But indeed, it was one of Wangsa’s two hobbies, and once he had free time, he couldn’t resist ’itching his fingers’.


    It had been many years already.


    Ten secondster.


    The call went through.


    The guess was correct. Wangsa was in a factory at the campsite, making a wooden table, nearingpletion. He was a bit annoyed when he heard the phone ring, but his temper cooled when he saw it was Tang Kai.


    "Boss Tang, what brings up my contact at thiste hour? What’s the matter?" Wangsa asked loudly.


    "Officer Wangsa is still in your factory, huh." Tang Kai chuckled at the echo on the other end.


    "Yeah, just finishing up a table. How’s thatst one I sent you? Good quality, right? I’ll make a bed cab for you next time." Wangsa’s favorite thing was money, but his favorite thing to gift was his ’wooden products’.


    Tang Kai nced at the table holding a potted nt next to the TV cab. He had to admit, with years of dedication to this hobby, Wangsa’s handiwork was beyond reproach, aesthetically pleasing, and durable. They didn’t seem like they were crafted by someone as rugged as him.


    "Looks great, I always keep it in the living room. Your craftsmanship is so good, you’d be a hit if you opened a furniture store," Tang Kai praised.


    With that, Wangsa was over the moon.


    What could be happier than witnessing the fruits of yourbor earn recognition?


    "Say it, Boss Tang. What’s the matter? It’ste now; you wouldn’t be calling to chat, would you? Are you transacting with Ling again? Congrats, you must be reaping big profits this time." Wangsa was confident.


    Ling had nabbed two territories this time with an abundance of seized resources. By now they should be done cleaning up. If Tang Kai’s call was not for a gems transaction, then what else could it be?


    "Officer Wangsa, whatever do you mean? Have they foundrge mineral deposits over there?" Tang Kai questioned, puzzled.


    He was curious about how Wangsa could be so sure?


    "You don’t know?" Wangsa was surprised.


    "Know what?" Tang Kai queried, puzzled. Did something happen on Ling’s side?


    Seeing that Tang Kai was genuinely clueless, Wangsa exined: "Well, looks like you’re really out of the loop. Here’s what happened a couple of days ago...."

    For those who are anxious, just bear with me a while longer. A lot of incidents happening domestically are indeed challenging to write about. I can’t express subjective opinions guiding international and domestic events, neither criticize nor discuss our country’s handling of situations, for it could result in a ban. However, lightly touching upon ’helping’ in catching spies is still okay.
