Arun smiled and agreed.
"Then I'm not welcome!"
Thirteen Sister said solemnly.
"Okay!"
Arun nodded with a smile.
In reality, Thirteen Sister was just joking. After all, the seaside villa belonged to Xu Lang, and it was somewhat inappropriate for an outsider like her to stay there frequently.
However, she still envies Arun for being able to be with Xu Lang, at least so far they are doing well.
But she also has someone she likes, Cola, who works for Dongxing Baitouweng.
At this moment, Xu Lang returned with his subordinate Wolf Fang Abu and a group of his underlings.
"You're back? Have you eaten?"
As soon as Arun saw Xu Lang, he rushed forward to ask him what was wrong, worried that Xu Lang might be starving because he hadn't eaten anything.
"Brother Lang~"
Thirteen Sister greeted Xu Lang.
Xu Lang nodded and said to Arun next to him, "I've already eaten at Uncle Ben's."
"That's good."
Arun smiled and nodded, and the three of them went to the backyard to chat in the garden.
Thirteen Sister was quite talkative, and the three of them chatted happily.
A short while later, Meng Renhui returned, and Thirteen Sister stopped and greeted him.
Xu Lang asked Arun to pour him a glass of water, took a sip, and then asked, "How's the recruitment going?"
Meng Renhui immediately said, "Boss, with your current reputation, as soon as the news is released, many people will come to join us. I have already recruited more than two thousand people."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "Now, who in this area doesn't know that you, Boss, have a big territory and are generous? They all want to follow you!"
"Hmm, what's the specific quality like?"
Xu Lang nodded and asked again.
Meng Renhui replied, "Don't worry, boss, I only picked the young and strong!"
"it is good!"
Xu Lang nodded in satisfaction.
His power has increased considerably.
……
A few days later, at Sands Bar.
At this moment, Xu Lang was drinking with Situ Haonan at the bar.
Xu Lang was accompanied by Arun, and Thirteen Sister, being Arun's good friend, naturally followed along.
"Situ, this is my girlfriend, Arun, and this is my good friend, Thirteen Sister!"
"Ah Run, Thirteen Sister, this is Situ Haonan, one of the Five Tigers of Dongxing who captures the Dragon Tiger!"
"Hello, Brother Situ~"
"Brother Situ~"
After Xu Lang introduced the two, Situ Haonan smiled and said, "Ah Lang, not bad! You've found a girlfriend, and she's so pretty?"
Upon hearing this, Arun lowered her head shyly.
Xu Lang replied with a smile, "Situ, you should find a girlfriend soon too!"
"Ha~"
Situ Haonan downed the wine in his glass in one gulp without replying, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
Meanwhile, Meng Renhui and He Yong were drinking with a group of his underlings.
He Yong admired Meng Renhui's fighting skills, but he was naturally very dissatisfied with his drinking prowess.
"Come on, drink!"
"Fine, I'll drink you up today!"
Neither of them would give way to the other, and they drank to their hearts' content.
After several rounds of drinks, Situ Haonan spoke up: "Ah Lang, in half a month, Boss Camel will be holding his birthday banquet. I heard that those two bastards, Downhill Tiger and Smiling Tiger, are also coming back."
"Are they coming back?"
Xu Lang frowned.
The relationship between the five tigers of Tung Sing was not very good; they basically went their own way. Among them, the two with the best relationship were probably Downhill Tiger and Smiling Tiger.
However, he and Situ Haonan both had a bad impression of these two people; they were simply too unscrupulous in their actions.
Then, Situ Haonan reminded Xu Lang, "Lang, you've gone to such lengths this time, swallowing up almost the entire territory of Yuanma Group. You'd better prepare a generous gift for him, or people will think you're stingy!"
"I see!"
Xu Lang nodded.
After all, he had just acquired such a large territory from Yuanma Group, and there were quite a few people who were envious. He would definitely need to use camels to mediate among them, so he would definitely need to prepare a generous gift.
It was getting late, so Situ Haonan said goodbye to Xu Lang.
In the car, Xu Lang said to Meng Renhui, who was sitting in the passenger seat, "Ah Hui, next month is Camel Old Top's birthday banquet. Go and prepare a birthday gift for me."
After thinking for a moment, he decided, "Let's make a pure gold longevity peach!"
"Yes, boss. How much exactly?"
Meng Renhui asked again.
Xu Lang thought for a moment before saying, "A little over a million!"
"Good boss!"
Meng Renhui nodded emphatically.
P.S.: Requesting some review votes...
Chapter Thirty: Financial Resources, Ancient Chaos (First Update)
Before we knew it, it was the end of the month.
At this moment, Hong Wentong, the second brother of the Spirit Snake, drove to Xu Lang's seaside villa.
There are thugs in black suits all around here.
Xu Lang's sea-view villa is located near Tin Shui Wai in Yuen Long, which is actually considered rural. In such a place, it is still necessary to arrange some men to patrol, because who knows if someone will ambush him.
To ensure the safety of the villa, Xu Lang arranged for more than fifty henchmen inside and outside the seaside villa, all of whom were his most elite subordinates.
"Brother Tong~"
"Brother Tong~"
Wherever the second brother of the Spirit Serpent, Hong Wentong, went, his underlings bowed and greeted him, to which Hong Wentong nodded slightly in response.
At this time, Hong Wentong, the second-in-command of the Spirit Serpent, had already taken over all of Xu Lang's businesses and was now Xu Lang's chief financial officer.
Turning around, Hong Wentong, the second brother of the Snake, arrived at the back garden of the villa.
There, the four of them—Xu Lang, Meng Renhui, Li Hao (the fifth brother of the toads), and Langya Abu—had just formed a table and were playing cards.
"Ah Tong, you've arrived?"
Xu Lang spoke first.
Hong Wentong, the second-in-command of the Spirit Serpent, nodded slightly and said to Xu Lang, "Boss, the accounts for this month have been calculated. Take a look..."
"We're all brothers, just say it!"
Xu Lang said casually.
Hong Wentong, the second brother of the Snake Clan, naturally knew that everyone present was his own brother, but since it was a financial matter, he still had to be cautious.
Now that the boss has said so, he has nothing more to say and can start reporting directly.
"The total cost of containers and berthing fees at Tin Shui Wai Pier is over eight million, and this amount is unlikely to fluctuate significantly."
"The security fee for the remaining five streets increased from over four million to over ten million because three more streets were added. Since it wasn't the end of the month when we took over the Yuanma Group's territory, we ended up collecting the security fee for this month."
"The profit of 'Zhou Girl' this month is more than 25 million yuan, and it has been in a steady upward trend."
"In addition, as our territory has expanded, the number of people taking out loans has increased, and our profits have increased from 500,000 per month to more than 1 million per month. All of this is pure profit!"
"Hmm~"
After listening to the report, Xu Lang nodded and said to Hong Wentong, the second-in-command of the Spirit Serpent, "Take two million out of the more than ten million in security fees and give it to the main branch!"
Normally, Xu Lang should have paid half of the fees, which is more than five million yuan. However, this time he fought for Yuanma Group's territory and paid a heavy price. He spent tens of millions of yuan, and his underlings also suffered heavy losses.
On the Tung Sing side, it was only Situ Haonan who helped him out, and he also gave Situ Haonan benefits. As for Camel, he planned to delay for a few months, wait a few months to recover his losses, and then pay Camel the full amount of the fees.
"Ahui, go pack the money, let's go to the main hall now!"
With other things to do, the group stopped playing cards.
Meng Renhui went to get the money after hearing Xu Lang's order.
Before long, Xu Lang, in his Mercedes-Benz van followed by several other vans, headed towards the Dongxing headquarters.
"Brother Lang~"
As soon as he arrived at the main hall entrance, a subordinate came forward to check on him. The moment he saw Xu Lang, he immediately greeted him.
Xu Lang said with a smile, "I'm here to pay the fees!"
"Brother Lang, you've come at the wrong time. Boss Camel isn't here!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Lang laughed and said, "It's alright, I can just go to Uncle Lun's place to pay!"
