Chapter 301

"If Chairman Yu has something to say, feel free to speak directly."

Ni Yongyao said faintly.

"Then I'll be blunt."

Yu Shuntian cleared his throat and said: "I want to invite Mr. Ni to join the Anti-Drug Association and serve as the association's chairman."

"Anti-Drug Association?"

Ni Yongyao looked at Yu Shuntian with a half-smile and said: "You're doing just fine as chairman; why are you handing it over to me?"

"After witnessing Mr. Ni's methods, how could I have the face to continue as this chairman."

Yu Shuntian said with a bitter smile: "I've realized that only someone like you, Mr. Ni, can purge Hong Kong and leave no room for white goods to survive; no one else can do it."

Yu Shuntian was very clear-headed; although the four major gambling lords were all dead, the profits from white goods were too great, and there would never be a shortage of people entering this line of work. Before long, a new set of four major gambling lords would appear.

And by then, Yu Shuntian wouldn't be able to come up with a second four hundred million to ask Ni Yongyao to take action.

Therefore, it was better to do it all at once and have Ni Yongyao serve as the chairman of the Anti-Drug Association; this way, he could guarantee that there would be no white goods in Hong Kong.

"Chairman of the Anti-Drug Association, it sounds pretty good, but what's in it for me?"

Ni Yongyao smoked his cigar and asked indifferently.

"Mr. Ni, this is doing a good deed for all the citizens of Hong Kong; for the Ni family and your personal reputation, it has..."

Yu Shuntian hurriedly explained.

"Chairman Yu, I'm a businessman; you'd better say something practical."

Ni Yongyao interrupted Yu Shuntian and said.

"I..."

Yu Shuntian opened his mouth but didn't know what to say; he suddenly discovered that he didn't seem to be able to come up with anything that would interest Ni Yongyao.

The chairman of the Hong Kong Anti-Drug Association sounded like a high position, but once you really sat in that seat, it was more about responsibility, and there were countless eyes watching; any small problem would be infinitely magnified.

"Mr. Ni, I was too presumptuous."

Yu Shuntian finally gave up the idea and said helplessly.

"It's not that I can't be this chairman; you only need to agree to one condition of mine."

Just when Yu Shuntian was about to give up, Ni Yongyao changed the subject and said.

"What condition?"

Yu Shuntian asked hurriedly.

"I need you to work for me and utilize your ability in the financial field to help me manage Ni Capital."

Ni Yongyao said faintly.

Ni Yongyao had set his sights on Yu Shuntian's ability in the financial field; before he appeared, Yu Shuntian was an undisputed financial giant, creating commercial miracles time and time again despite being a latecomer.

And after several months of development, Ni Capital had accumulated a considerable amount of funds; if he let this cash just lie in the account, it would undoubtedly be a huge waste.

"This..."

Hearing Ni Yongyao's condition, Yu Shuntian hesitated for a moment.

After all, Yu Shuntian was now a successful person by standard definitions, owning three companies and having hundreds of employees.

Leaving a big boss position to work for someone else would make anyone hesitate.

However, in Yu Shuntian's heart, ultimately, combating white goods was more important.

"Mr. Ni, as long as you can ensure that white goods no longer appear in Hong Kong, I can work for you."

Yu Shuntian gritted his teeth and agreed.

"You can rest assured about that."

Ni Yongyao smiled and extended his hand to Yu Shuntian.

Yu Shuntian shook hands with Ni Yongyao, and it felt as if a heavy stone had fallen from his heart, instantly feeling much lighter.

Yu Shuntian's father, girlfriend, and son had all died because of white goods.

For so many years, Yu Shuntian had been fighting against gambling lords big and small, racking his brains to clear out white goods, and had spent countless nights with insomnia.

Now, he could finally unload the heavy burden on his shoulders.

Yu Shuntian believed that the Anti-Drug Association, with Ni Yongyao as chairman, would truly play a role and completely clear white goods out of Hong Kong.

"Then from now on, you are the Chief Financial Officer of Ni Capital."

Ni Yongyao said.

He then ordered Huo Hu: "Huo Hu, take him to understand the company's situation."

"Yes, Mr. Ni."

Huo Hu nodded and agreed.

Yu Shuntian said goodbye to Ni Yongyao and followed Huo Hu out of the Ni family manor, visiting the subsidiaries under Ni Capital one by one.

From Galaxy Communications to Saturn Construction, after seeing these companies, Yu Shuntian was deeply shocked.

Yu Shuntian clearly remembered that even the oldest one, Galaxy Communications, had only been established for a few months.

But the revenue of these companies left Yu Shuntian dumbfounded; it was a very massive amount of funds, and it was cash that could be used at will.

Only then did Yu Shuntian understand how great the gap was between him and Ni Yongyao; his four hundred million was simply a drop in the bucket.

This made the last bit of unwillingness in Yu Shuntian's heart vanish; being able to personally manage such massive cash was also a challenge for Yu Shuntian.

At the same time.

Ni Yongyao welcomed another guest.

In the reception room.

Northern Industrial Market Manager Zhang Chongguang, after exchanging pleasantries with Ni Yongyao, said: "Mr. Ni, are the design blueprints ready? The company is urging me tightly, calling every two or three days."

"They are already finished."

Ni Yongyao said, snapping his fingers.

Sofia understood and placed a heavy set of blueprints in front of Zhang Chongguang.

Seeing this, Zhang Chongguang immediately couldn't wait to check the blueprints one by one.

After finishing, Zhang Chongguang let out a long breath, and his whole person was clearly much more relaxed.

"As expected of the company that could design the HK416 and MPX, this weapon is still at a top-tier level."

Zhang Chongguang was very satisfied with the performance of the 191 rifle and its various details.

"Mr. Ni, we can start production; let's produce ten thousand for the first batch."

Zhang Chongguang immediately placed an order.

The reason there were only ten thousand was, first, because the cost of the 191 rifle was far above the 56 series rifles, even with the many discounts Ni Yongyao had given.

Second, since it was a newly designed firearm, and completely designed by Black Steel Industry, before large-scale equipping, they always had to equip a small scale first, and only after passing combat tests would there be subsequent orders.

"No problem."

Ni Yongyao also understood the concerns of the mainland side and agreed directly.

"There's one more thing; if large-scale equipping is confirmed later, I hope Mr. Ni can build a factory in the mainland specifically for producing the 191 rifle."

Zhang Chongguang said.

"That's also not a problem."

Ni Yongyao agreed immediately; he understood the concerns of the mainland side.

After all, it was a weapon for large-scale equipping; if there was no factory in the mainland, it would always be unsettling.

With both matters settled, Zhang Chongguang's smile deepened, and he began chatting with Ni Yongyao.

"By the way, the election should be coming up again soon; I wonder if Mr. Ni is interested?"

Zhang Chongguang brought up the election and asked.

The election referred to the upcoming Hong Kong Legislative Council election, which was open to all of Hong Kong, and anyone with a certain status and position could run.

"Interest is naturally there."

Ni Yongyao said.

For a legislative council member, Ni Yongyao could be said to be determined to win; if he wanted to lead the Ni family to completely go ashore, the status of a member was a must.. 0

Ni Yongyao had started paving the way for this since he was a Justice of the Peace.

"For a patriotic entrepreneur like Mr. Ni, we are willing to give our full support."

Zhang Chongguang said.

It was now 1991, and Hong Kong's return was already a settled matter; the mainland side had been sparing no effort to win over various forces, so they naturally wouldn't miss Ni Yongyao. ===== CHAPTER 303 =====
