Crackle! Bang!
Chinese New Year had arrived, and the entire Hong Kong Island was buzzing with excitement. The Ye family mansion on Victoria Peak was no exception, brimming with life and laughter.
The second uncle's family was also there, along with Xuan Jian and the Six Sword Slaves, making a total of over twenty people.
Both Ye Yong Cun and Lin Shi Lian were naturally overjoyed, as their son was home for the New Year.
The second uncle had one son and two daughters, all around the same age as Ye Hao Chen.
All three were still in school, currently attending high school.
"Little Chen, what do you think of this one?"
In the living room, Ye Zhi Rong held up a design drawing and presented it to Ye Hao Chen.
Dozens of design drawings were spread across the table, all blueprints for the Huanyu Building.
Two months had passed, and over a hundred designers had submitted their work.
After the secretary team's selection, only a dozen designers remained.
As for the eliminated designers, Ye Hao Chen had still given each of them ten thousand Hong Kong dollars.
Ye Hao Chen took the design drawing and looked at it, his eyes immediately brightening.
The design was truly innovative, with a modern style and a duplex structure.
Besides the main building, there was a glass walkway connecting the two buildings.
The main building had one hundred and five floors, while the auxiliary building had ninety-eight.
Upon seeing the name at the bottom of the drawing, Ye Hao Chen realized with a start.
It was him, a renowned international designer from France.
"Then let's go with this one. We'll get started after the New Year."
Ye Hao Chen glanced at the other drawings, finally nodding his head.
The two buildings would be enough, providing space for thousands of employees to work.
Tian Yan, who was standing beside him, nodded in agreement. She too felt that the design was stunning.
"But this will increase the budget."
Ye Zhi Rong looked at the drawing in her hand and said in a crisp voice.
One building over a hundred floors, and another close to that, even one hundred billion wouldn't be enough.
She knew her brother's nature: either he wouldn't build it at all, or it would be the best.
The blueprint included a large fountain and various other facilities in the center of the complex.
With all the renovations, even one hundred billion might not be enough.
Currently, she was the Executive President of Huanyu Group, second only to her brother.
Huanyu Group only had a few subsidiary companies, but it employed a large number of people.
They now had over ten thousand employees, with Huanyu Food and Textile alone having four thousand employees.
Huanyu Tech had also been established, and they had successfully developed the pager.
Production had begun, and it would be launched in the market after the New Year.
Moreover, Huanyu Group had recruited many people for various departments.
She was constantly traveling back and forth between mainland China and Hong Kong.
The plans for various projects in Shenzhen had already been finalized, and construction would begin immediately after the New Year.
Huanyu Group was like a car with the engine revved up, constantly speeding forward.
"By the way, the Hong Kong government is hosting a gala in a few days, inviting people from all walks of life."
Ye Zhi Rong suddenly remembered the invitation she had received a few days ago and spoke.
"We'll see about it then. Bao Ship Wang and the others mentioned it to me as well."
Ye Hao Chen paused for a moment, then shook his head with a smile.
"Dinner's ready..."
At that moment, their mother and the second aunt came out of the kitchen, carrying plates of food.
At the dinner table, Ye Yong Cun looked at his large family and beamed with happiness.
"Little Chen, what are your plans for the Numbers Gang?"
While eating, Ye Yong Cun couldn't help but ask.
The Numbers Gang's power had grown increasingly stronger, even being called the biggest triad in Hong Kong.
The most crucial point was that his son's reputation was growing, and having a triad background wasn't a good thing.
Especially recently, the three big bosses, Han Bin, had suddenly switched allegiance to the Numbers Gang.
It had sent shockwaves through Hong Kong's underworld.
This incident had a huge impact on Hong Kong's underworld; no one had expected Han Bin to join the Numbers Gang.
Indeed, Han Bin had recently completed the takeover of all of Kwai Tsing.
Kwai Tsing had been quite lively lately. Han Bin had suddenly attacked others with his men.
With lightning speed, he swept through all the other triads. The Eastern Star, and the United Peace were too late to react.
Right after conquering Kwai Tsing, the Eastern Star and the United Peace were preparing to rally their men for a counterattack.
Then, Han Bin declared publicly that he was joining the Numbers Gang.
Immediately after, Kong Long and Thirteen Mei also announced their allegiance to the Numbers Gang.
Jiang Tian Sheng was so enraged that he vomited blood and was immediately hospitalized.
Han Bin's sudden defection to the Numbers Gang had stunned all the triads.
The Hung Hing became a laughing stock. Without Han Bin, they had lost a vital limb.
Hearing Ye Yong Cun's question, everyone else turned their gazes towards Ye Hao Chen.
"Dad, Big Brother is going to unify all the underworld forces in Hong Kong."
"Become the King of Hong Kong..."
Ye Hao Yu clenched his fist excitedly, looking up at his elder brother with admiration.
Ye Hao Wen nodded in agreement, both brothers were paying close attention to the Numbers Gang.
Now, the Numbers Gang could be said to control half of Hong Kong's underworld.
Nearly the entire New Territories was under the Numbers Gang's control.
Seeing his two sons' excited faces, Ye Yong Cun's jaw twitched.
They were simply rebellious sons. Just a while ago, they were talking about joining the triads.
The Ye family was currently the top family in Hong Kong.
【Ding, mission triggered: Become the King of Hong Kong's underworld】
【Reward: Recruit an S-tier all-round military industrial talent...】
At that moment, the mechanical voice of the system echoed in Ye Hao Chen's mind.
Ye Hao Chen was slightly taken aback, another mission had been triggered.
But this mission was quite interesting: the King of Hong Kong's underworld.
It wasn't about unifying the underworld forces, but becoming the King.
An S-tier military industrial talent, he wouldn't miss this opportunity for anything.
He had seen the recruitment store, and military industrial talents were the most expensive.
A-tier talent cost tens of millions of US dollars, while an S-tier military industrial talent would require hundreds of millions of US dollars.
A single tier difference, but the price varied by tens of times.
Not to mention an S-tier all-round talent. Technological talents were always the most astounding.
"Then, I'll become the King of Hong Kong..."
Ye Hao Chen regained his composure, seeing everyone looking at him, and said with a smile.
Everyone in the living room was stunned. Ye Yong Cun looked at Ye Hao Chen's confident expression, wanting to dissuade him, but not knowing what to say.
He knew how ambitious his son was...
