Chapter 643: Chapter 547: Huge Harvest (Please Subscribe!)_1
Early morning.
In the Command Room.
After listening to Tang Yi’s report, Tang Qing understood how shocking this operation was. Now, not only the underground forces, but even different countries were alarmed, especially the major powers. They ordered their intelligence departments to thoroughly investigate this ’dangerous’ force.
They seemed quite imposing.
But Tang Qing was not afraid. Not because he was confident, but because such orders were rather vague.
A force with just a bit of influence was incomparable to a national power, and it had not harmed their interests or hurt civilians. Those killed were all desperate fugitives.
Therefore, they merely issued such orders and assigned a few people to oversee it. They were not crazy enough to unearth ’Tongtian’; countries had too many affairs to handle. To rally the whole nation for such a ’minor issue’- was that not ridiculous?
Moreover.
What did it have to do with him?
Who knew he was the mastermind behind all this?
All the pressure was borne by others, who diverted attention, so he had nothing to worry about. Just eat when he should eat, drink when he should drink, sleep when he should sleep, and play when he should play. Everything stayed the same.
What he cared about was the harvest this time.
"Commander, we have obtained a total of approximately 9.58 billion US dollars in liquid assets, and the value of bonds, stocks, and other valuables is about 2.1 billion dollars." Tang Yi directly reported the total amount to Tang Qing.
He nodded.
As for this harvest, Tang Qing was satisfied.
He had not expected these guys to have so much money. But come to think of it, it makes sense. One side dedicated to killing people and the other to selling contraband goods, some even doing other businesses. Adding all these people together, it was not surprising to have so much money.
However, Tang Qing was not very excited.
The reason was simple.
The enterprise he was currently running was so big that while his income was high, so were his expenses. Besides, this was just unexpected wealth, not steady income.
A hundred billion US dollars, depending on what it was used for. Saving it in the bank would indeed be a lot, but for investing in industries, it may be just a drop in the bucket, especially for his Industrial Alliance Plan. Throwing this money into it would not make much impact.
Fortunately, the Industrial Alliance does not need to be completed all at once; it should be progressively invested.
This money is currently being transferred to designated accounts in succession.
Seeing an unprecedented amount in his personal account, Tang Qing promptly bought the remaining four Quantum Communication Satellites and ordered the soldiers to launch them as soon as possible.
In doing so.
A global, uninterrupted satellite monitoring network was established. This was the real ’Eye of God’.
The remaining money, Tang Qing did not hold onto. A large part of the cash was allocated to the various companies in the Black Prison and the Mining Alliance, allowing them to continue to acquire various mineral resources and to acquire upstream and downstream companies in the metallurgical industry.
From mining equipment manufacturing, ore mining, smelting to metal product processing, sales, and so on.
Combined with the advanced industrial equipment and technologies of the mall.
Tang Qing aimed to establish a completely self-controlled industrial chain, where all upstream and downstream companies were not dependent on others or constrained by others. Each company fought on its own, but when necessary, they could form a trust that influences the market.
And these dollars.
Could only make a small step in this plan. Finally, Tang Qing allocated the remaining more than three billion dollars to the Food Industry Alliance, which had been implemented earlier, but due to a lack of funds, its industry was not too many.
Now.
It was time for it to develop rapidly.
This time, use this money to complete the layout of the Mining, Grain Industry Alliances. In the future, most of the money will be invested into other industry alliances.
As a visionary banker, there were still many ’parts’ needed.
Military equipment.
Biological medicines.
Energy and electricity.
Communications equipment.
Aviation industry.
Electronics manufacturing.
News media.
Etc. etc... The road ahead was long.
This planned future behemoth, the Industry Alliance, still lacked many legs and needed many parts before it could be assembled into a fearsome beast that devoured the sky, firmly safeguarding one’s interests and escorting the internationalization of the Asia Dollar.
Also escorting the fulfillment of his ’achievement task’.
This cleansing operation was merely a small interlude that flexed muscles and deterred minorities.
Noticing it was not early anymore.
And he had nothing to do.
Tang Qing returned to the living room, went into the bedroom, without courtesy, woke up Lin Jiaxue.
Afterwards.
Lin Jiaxue leaned into Tang Qing’s arms and whispered, "Tangtang."
"Hmm?"
"I will exercise properly," Lin Jiaxue courageously blurted out, a phrase that made Tang Qing’s mind wander. By exercising, did she mean spending more time or changing postures? It was perplexing.
"... I’ll join you," Tang Qing chuckled.
"I meant exercising," Lin Jiaxue shot a glance at Tang Qing.
"Indeed, we’ll exercise together," Tang Qing pretended not to understand.
"..." Lin Jiaxue felt as if she would soon be corrupted by Tang Qing, leading her thoughts in that direction.
"Why don’t we take a day off today?" Tang Qing suggested.
"Take a day off to do what?" Lin Jiaxue curiously asked.
"Whatever you want to do..." Tang Qing began to tease again.
"..."
But in the end, they didn’t end up taking a day off and left for work hand in hand after breakfast.
Walking on the road.
Facing the morning sun.
Hand in hand with his lady.
Recalling the money he ’earned,’ Tang Qing felt euphoric. Although all of it was already allocated and only briefly in his account, it didn’t evaporate but instead turned into tangible resources and industry.
...
Thailand.
Near the port.
Today, Wangsa woke up early. He had been somewhat distracted recently. He had wanted to help Ling find the assassin and warn him. However, his subordinates hadn’t reported any breakthroughs, which left him feeling frustrated.
After running two laps around the field to ease his mind, Wangsa was just about to have breakfast when he received a call from his father.
"Father, what happened?" Wangsa asked in surprise. It was rare for his father to reach out to him early in the morning.
"We underestimated Ling," Wangsa’s father said in a voice tinged with exhaustion and a faint trace of melancholy.
Confused by his father’s words, Wangsa wondered what Ling had done this time. After all, even he, who was closest to Ling, hadn’t heard any news. 𝑛𝘰𝘷𝑝𝘶𝑏.𝑐𝘰𝘮
"Father, what do you mean? Did Ling manage to convince those people to stop going after him? That’s great!" Wangsa thought of Ling’s previous confidence. Had Ling already sorted out this trouble? Wangsa was elated at the thought.
"No."
"No?" Wangsa’s smile froze, "Father, you’re being unusually mysterious today. You usually don’t hold back. That’s disappointing. Although I want to complain, I daren’t."
"They’re all dead. All eight tycoons in the industry chain and the three assassin organizations are all completely wiped out. Except for a few individual members, all were killed by a mysterious force in the early hours of this morning without a chance to resist."
"Father... can this information be trusted?" Wangsa asked in disbelief, feeling as if he was listening to a tall tale. These weren’t small fishes, but big shots with tens of thousands of followers. Had they all just... died?
"I find it hard to believe too, but it has been confirmed. Last night, nearly all the assassins from these three organizations were fired... all within just three hours."
The speed shocked Wangsa’s father. The assassins were scattered all over the world. Thailand’s intelligence department was incapable of such a task.
"... Father, what should we do?" Wangsa managed to digest this shocking news.
"This time Ling didn’t personally take action. He hired others or perhaps, his backers did. It’s still unclear," Wangsa’s father speculated, suspecting for a while that Ling was being backed by someone powerful.
"What does the higher up have to say about this?" Wangsa hurriedly asked, wanting to know Thailand’s official stance.
"It’s the same as before, neutrality, choosing not to support anyone. Fortunately, Ling no longer has any opponents, or to be precise, no one dares to touch him for the time being. Our business will remain unaffected. You can pretend you don’t know anything and don’t confront Ling about it.
Moreover, I will immediately start the process of getting the fruit wine approved for medicinal use in Thailand, aiming to complete it within a week. Ha ha, Ling truly did not disappoint me. Good, very good. Now you know about this, don’t spread it around," conveyed Wangsa’s father, who, too, wanted to show off his power.
"I understand, father," nodded Wangsa.
After hanging up the call,
Wangsa was still unable to suppress his excitement. Yes, excitement. To him, Ling’s actions were thrilling. On the slightest disagreement, Ling simply draws up a fight, regardless who is involved, and wipes them all off.
Wangsa admired this audacity.
At the same time, he felt relieved.
As expected, Ling did not disappoint him. For such a seemingly unbreakable situation, Ling used power to smash through it, giving others no opportunity to beg for mercy and sent all the opponents to their demise. This was very much in Ling’s style.
However, he was also curious about who had executed such a thorough and efficient massacre. If it was another third-party organization, that was one thing, but if it was Ling’s backers, that would be terrifying.
But fortunately, they were friends with Ling.
Had they been enemies,
They would probably be having sleepless nights right now.
It seems,
They could only wait for time to reveal the truth, and it’d be best for them to just mind their own business with Ling.
