Chapter 116: Gravure printing press! Chiang Tin-yeung suffers a breakdown!

~6 min read 1,179 words

Siam.

Chiang Tin-yeung’s estate.

"What? A two-thousand-man force wiped out? Hung Hing has become a subsidiary of the Ni family?"

Upon hearing this intelligence, Jiang Tianyang was stunned, so much so that he couldn't even bring himself to smoke his cigar.

"Ni Yongyao's strength is actually this formidable?"

Jiang Tianyang was extremely surprised.

He had originally thought that one thousand Siamese veterans would be enough to deal with the Ni family, but he never expected the outcome to be their total annihilation, with the Hung Hing Society also falling into Ni Yongyao's hands.

This forced Jiang Tianyang to revise his assessment of Ni Yongyao, placing him on an equal footing with himself.

"I don't know how Ni Yongyao managed to do it, but it is indeed a fact."

Jiang Tiansheng said helplessly.

He had felt this kind of situation before, back when the Crown Prince died.

It was the same: full of confidence before the war started, and after it began, there was neither hide nor hair of the enemy to be found.

Even now, Jiang Tiansheng still didn't know what method Ni Yongyao had used to make two thousand people vanish into thin air.

"Additionally, Ni Yongyao asked me to pass on a message to you; he said to get prepared, as he will be coming to pay a visit in person soon."

Jiang Tiansheng recalled Ni Yongyao's final instructions and said.

"Pay a visit in person?"

Hearing this, Jiang Tianyang snorted and said, "I admit that Ni Yongyao has great influence in Tsim Sha Tsui, but this is Siam, my territory!

No matter what abilities Ni Yongyao has, once he arrives in Siam, he must coil up if he is a dragon, and lie down if he is a tiger!"

Jiang Tianyang's words carried intense confidence.

This confidence stemmed from the twenty years Jiang Tianyang had spent struggling in Siam, the large number of troops under his command, and the military connections he had cultivated.

"Don't worry, my forces here are strong and well-equipped, and I have quite a few heavy weapons.

It would be better if Ni Yongyao doesn't come, but if he dares to show up, I'll make sure he regrets it!"

Jiang Tianyang resumed smoking his cigar and said.

Jiang Tiansheng nodded; he also had some understanding of the situation at the estate.

However, after pondering for a moment, Jiang Tiansheng still warned, "Ni Yongyao is not simple. Ever since he took charge of the Ni family, everything he has done has been a success.

I think we should make more preparations, just in case."

"What you say also makes sense."

Jiang Tianyang smoked his cigar and said thoughtfully, "In that case, I will give General Songpa a call and borrow a batch of men and military supplies."

General Songpa was Jiang Tianyang's connection within the Siamese military.

Hearing that he could contact a general in the Siamese military, Jiang Tiansheng let out a long sigh of relief, and the intense unease in his heart dissipated significantly.

……

Hong Kong.

Ni Yongxiao drove back to the Ni family estate.

After getting out of the car, he headed straight for the study.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

Ni Yongxiao knocked on the door.

"Come in."

Hearing Ni Yongyao's voice, Ni Yongxiao pushed the door open and entered.

Inside the study, Ni Yongyao was leaning on the sofa, enjoying a head massage from Fire Fox.

"Yongxiao, what is it?"

Ni Yongyao asked without lifting his head.

"Big Brother, the Black Steel Industrial Company you instructed me to register has been completed."

Ni Yongxiao said as he placed a thick stack of documents on the desk, then added, "I have also purchased a private jet, which can be used at any time."

"Well done."

Hearing this, Ni Yongyao opened his eyes and nodded with satisfaction.

"How is the progress on the mobile phone?"

Ni Yongyao asked.

"The progress is very fast; it should be ready for market in about another month."

Ni Yongxiao thought for a moment and said.

"Hurry it up. It's not just us developing mobile phones; other manufacturers are also investing in this field."

Ni Yongyao urged.

Although the mobile phone Ni Yongyao was preparing to launch this time was the second-generation Nokia, which was extremely advanced compared to the "Big Brother" phones of 1991—practically crushing them—

it would still be very disadvantageous if the progress lagged too far behind, allowing other manufacturers to enter the market first.

Even if other manufacturers only had first-generation phones, they would still attract a large number of consumers.

If that happened, by the time Ni Yongyao's phone hit the market, sales would inevitably be significantly discounted.

After all, most people would only buy one mobile phone and wouldn't replace it for several years.

"I understand."

Ni Yongxiao nodded, also aware of the urgency of the matter.

"Beep, beep, beep!"

Just then, Ni Yongyao's "Big Brother" phone rang.

Fire Fox picked up the phone, answered it, and held it to Ni Yongyao's ear, saying, "Mr. Ni, it's White Widow calling."

"Oh? What does she want?"

Ni Yongyao raised an eyebrow.

"Mr. Ni, the equipment and personnel for the arms factory are all ready and can be shipped to Hong Kong at any time."

White Widow's voice came through the speaker.

"Depart immediately. I have already registered the company here, just waiting for them."

Ni Yongyao said.

"No problem, they will board the ship today.

Also, there is one more thing; there is a little gadget you might be interested in."

White Widow said.

"What is it?"

Ni Yongyao asked.

"A mint has been forced to close for various reasons, and its internal assets are being liquidated. There is an intaglio printing press that has become available. I wonder if Mr. Ni is interested?"

White Widow said.

"An intaglio printing press?"

Hearing this, Ni Yongyao's heart skipped a beat.

Banknotes are printed using intaglio printing presses, and with other methods combined, one could completely produce banknotes of the same standard as real currency.

"Where is it?"

Ni Yongyao asked.

"That would require Mr. Ni to come over in person."

White Widow's voice carried a thick sense of temptation.

Ni Yongyao understood immediately; it was most likely that White Widow was feeling quite hungry, which was why she insisted on him coming over.

However, for the sake of the intaglio printing press, Ni Yongyao decided to make a trip to Mao Xiong.

In any case, with the private jet this time, traveling back and forth would be more convenient.

"I will come over as soon as possible. Keep the printing press for me."

Ni Yongyao said.

"Rest assured, Mr. Ni, no one else would dare to buy this thing."

White Widow said.

After hanging up the phone, Ni Yongyao said to Ni Yongxiao, "Yongxiao, I'm going to Mao Xiong for a trip. Keep an eye on the house for these few days."

"Alright, Big Brother."

Ni Yongxiao agreed.

Afterward, Ni Yongyao did not delay, taking Fire Fox and the others to leave the estate and board the private jet to Mao Xiong.
