Chapter 105

So he immediately dialed Yuri's number.

Beep, beep, beep.

The call was answered quickly.

"Mr. Ni, long time no see!"

As soon as the call connected, Yuri's booming laughter came through; it was clear that Yuri had been in a very good mood lately.

This was only natural; Ni Yongyao's several transactions had allowed Yuri to earn a massive amount of profit, and he had also tapped into the channels of the Mao Xiong arms depots, leaving him counting money until his hands cramped over this period.

"I wonder what Mr. Ni intends to buy this time?"

Yuri asked.

"I don't need weapons this time; instead, I'm preparing to manufacture them myself."

Ni Yongyao said.

"Manufacture weapons? You aren't planning to switch careers and start an arms company, are you?"

Yuri said in surprise.

"I am preparing to build an arms factory and need a large amount of specialized equipment, engineers, and skilled workers. Do you have any connections within Mao Xiong?"

Ni Yongyao stated his requirements.

"Mr. Ni, if you were buying arms, I could get you anything except nuclear warheads.

But an arms factory is not that easy."

Yuri said helplessly.

To this, Ni Yongyao only said calmly: "Get this done, and I'll give you one million US dollars."

"No problem! Mr. Ni, give me one day, and I guarantee I'll get it done!"

Upon hearing that the commission was a full one million US dollars, Yuri became instantly excited.

"Contact me whenever there is news."

After Ni Yongyao finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

For the current Ni Yongyao, one million US dollars was no longer a significant amount; throwing it away to establish an arms factory in the shortest possible time was not a loss at all.

After all, the benefits brought by having the arms factory built a day earlier were not as simple as just US dollars.

After hanging up, Ni Yongyao called Ni Yongxiao and told him to immediately register an arms company named Black Steel Industry.

After finishing these tasks, Ni Yongyao leaned back on the sofa, smoking a cigar and enjoying himself.

Next, he only needed to wait for Yuri's call.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

At this moment, the study door was knocked upon.

"Come in."

The door opened, and John Wick walked in, dressed in a suit.

"What is it?" Ni Yongyao asked.

"Mr. Ni, the Continental Hotel has already integrated the Hong Kong and assassin markets. Now, those lone-wolf assassins have either joined the hotel or have already left Hong Kong.

All tasks posted by clients also need to go through the hotel."

John Wick reported.

Hearing this news, a look of satisfaction appeared in Ni Yongyao's eyes.

"Very good. To achieve this level in such a short time, I was right to put you in charge of the Continental Hotel."

Ni Yongyao praised.

He then thought for a moment and said: "Now that the hotel's scale has expanded, 17 floors are clearly not enough. Contact the owner of Chungking Mansions and tell them I have an intention to purchase the building."

As the core of the Hong Kong assassin market, it would be too small-minded for the Continental Hotel to remain cramped on the 17th floor of Chungking Mansions.

With Ni Yongyao's current financial strength, buying Chungking Mansions was something he could do with ease.

After all, the Galaxy Casino brought in massive amounts of cash every day, and Black Steel International was not far behind; at least during this period of signing numerous contracts, the cash obtained was almost comparable to the casino.

"Mr. Ni, how should we handle the South Asians inside the building?"

John Wick asked.

"They are just a bunch of undocumented residents; drive them all out. If anyone wants to be a holdout, turn them into a real nail."

Ni Yongyao instructed.

The South Asians in Chungking Mansions were basically undocumented residents without legal status who were illegally staying in Hong Kong. Ni Yongyao would not have any sympathy for these monkeys and would strike them down with a heavy hand.

"Yes, I understand."

John Wick agreed and turned to leave.

The next day.

Several owners of Chungking Mansions came to the Ni family manor and couldn't wait to sign the contract with Ni Yongyao.

Being able to sell Chungking Mansions made these people very excited.

After all, given the current state of Chungking Mansions, one couldn't find a sucker to take over the property anywhere in Hong Kong.

Don't look at how the building was packed with countless South Asians; these were all undocumented residents without stable income who frequently defaulted on rent, often ran away, and frequently caused loss of life, making these owners extremely annoyed.

In fact, Chungking Mansions was originally a high-end building, but after some accidents, it gradually became a slum for South Asians.

"Mr. Ni, happy cooperation."

After signing the contract, several middle-aged men in suits and leather shoes shook hands with Ni Yongyao with faces full of smiles.

For them, they had finally shed the burden of Chungking Mansions and sold it for a good price.

"Happy cooperation."

Ni Yongyao shook their hands, then immediately dismissed these people, picked up his mobile phone, and dialed John Wick.

"John, start the operation."

Ni Yongyao said.

Now that Chungking Mansions was bought, the undocumented residents inside should be driven away.

"Yes, Mr. Ni."

John Wick said.

Next, John Wick would lead a large number of assassins from the Continental Hotel, starting from the 17th floor and clearing downwards, driving out every single South Asian without exception.

This process would inevitably involve bloodshed, but no one cared about the lives of the South Asians, especially the undocumented ones staying illegally.

"Get it done as soon as possible."

Ni Yongyao said and hung up the phone.

"Beep, beep, beep!"

At this moment, the mobile phone rang, and Ni Yongyao answered it casually, "Hello?"

"Mr. Ni, it's me, Yuri. There's a lead on the arms factory matter."

Yuri said excitedly.

After all, once the deal was reached, he could receive a reward of one million US dollars from Ni Yongyao.

"Tell me the details."

Ni Yongyao said.

"I contacted an intermediary named White Widow (from the movie Mission: Impossible – Fallout), who comes from an arms-dealing family in the Mao Xiong Union. Her connections are much broader than mine and can meet Mr. Ni's needs."

Yuri said.

"White Widow?"

Ni Yongyao felt the name was very familiar when he heard it.

He thought for a moment and quickly found the corresponding memory.

It was indeed as Yuri said; White Widow had great influence within Mao Xiong, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she had eyes and ears everywhere. It wouldn't be difficult to get an arms factory through her.

"Mr. Ni has heard of her too?"

Yuri asked.

"I've heard a little."

Ni Yongyao said: "When can the deal be finalized?"

"That cannot be determined yet. White Widow's intention is to meet with you in person; she will wait for you in Mosike."

Yuri said.

"No problem."
