"A hundred million orders, Prince must expand the production line, even outsourcing will be a hefty investment."

"Moreover, he will definitely not be satisfied with the status quo, and with the encouragement of a reborn individual, the development of the second-generation smartphone is inevitable."

"That money, he won’t have much left after tucking it into his waistband."

"The crucial point is, do you think a smartphone born out of reliance on a reborn individual has much chance of survival under the pressure of international brands like Ya’li and Six Star?"

Kang Yue instantly understood, her eyes shining as she said, "Are you suggesting that Shuyue will be crushed?"

"I’m not certain, but what I can be sure of is that a true king of the era must possess wisdom and abilities that don’t lose to those of the reborn. So, we don’t compete with the era, we become the benefactors of the era!

Like being benefactors to Dama, Er’ma, Mr. Wang!" Shen Dong felt this was the path to happiness.

"That line of thinking seems very correct."

She also saw hope.

Why do we have to stand on the shoulders of giants when we can walk side by side with them?

"Come on, let’s have a drink to celebrate first." Shen Dong poured two glasses of wine, handing one to Kang Yue.

Kang Yue didn’t reach out to take it, blinked enticingly, and said with a seductive glance, "Aren’t you afraid things might get out of hand after drinking?"

"Stop messing around." Shen Dong took Kang Yue’s hand, thrust the glass into her hand, and joked, "Even if you did have ideas, you’d have to wait until I’ve grown up, right? The current situation... am I right?"

Giggle.

Kang Yue let out a bell-like laugh, the wine in her glass shimmering with the movement, gleaming like rubies under the light. She slowly raised her glass, "With what you said, I feel a little less thwarted, cheers to the future."

The future, such a beautiful word.

When hope is right in front of you, that’s when the fighting spirit is at its strongest, the kind that even wine can’t intoxicate.

Shen Dong was still excited, his tongue thickened, waving a wine bottle with a flushed face, "Prince... he’s nothing, he destroyed Huaxu, I’ll remember this grudge for a lifetime, I will get back at him sooner or later!"

"Giggle." Kang Yue laughed, her eyes narrowed into slits, swaying as she sat in Shen Dong’s arms, "You, hic, you really can pretend, I thought, thought you didn’t care at all."

Didn’t care?

Those who are good to us guys, we keep in the notebook, those who hurt us, we carve in the heart.

Not saying it doesn’t mean forgetting, it’s just not the time to say it.

The hotel was upscale, with beds to die for. Waking up in the early morning, Shen Dong lifted Kang Yue’s smooth legs, feeling no panic or shyness, but casually patted them on Kang Yue’s face, "Hey, wake up, your naughty bits are showing."

Kang Yue grunted, turned over, and went back to sleep.

Shen Dong didn’t say more, casually spanking Kang Yue’s bottom, not even realizing that his approach to life had changed at that moment.

However, he harbored no improper thoughts towards Kang Yue, "Is there something important, get up quickly."

"Ouch!" Kang Yue sat up like crazy, her hair disheveled as she stared at Shen Dong, "I was finally dreaming of my Prince Charming, and you just had to wake me up?"

"Your Prince Charming is right here." Shen Dong said with a smile as he got out of bed, straightened the wrinkles on his trousers, and headed to the bathroom, "We’re actually going to have fun this time, so be proactive, I suspect, that Prince will be watching us."

One night can change a lot.

Not the least bit concerned about her shirt being unbuttoned, or how sizzling her slim-fit thermal pants were, Kang Yue followed him into the bathroom, "Aren’t you just paranoid? The guy’s busy making a fortune, who’s going to watch you?"

Shen Dong, toothbrush full of toothpaste in hand, pointed at Kang Yue. "We suddenly tell Zhao Wenliang that we need at least thirty million phones within the month, you think they’ll be in a rush?"

"First, they’ll verify the authenticity because a thirty million unit order will definitely require outsourced production, even an expansion. After confirming its real, they’ll also be curious, ’What the heck, where did Shen Dong get such a huge order from?’"

"Guess if the Prince wants to find a new client directly?"

Kang Yue puckered her lips, "As if you’re the only one who knows. Where are you planning to go?"

"Look it up online, ugh, the tea industry is strong in Min Province, maybe have a look there?"

"Got it, got it," Kang Yue was already at the computer, the bulky monitor and sluggish internet speed were testing her patience.

Running a comb through her hair with one hand and adeptly typing on the keyboard with the other, she didn’t stop talking, "Hey! Aren’t we avoiding direct confrontation and focusing on developing agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, secondary, and fishing industries?"

"Your summary is spot on," Shen Dong spat out the mouthwash, leaning on the bathroom doorframe, "After we get shares in Penguin, we really won’t be short of cash, so our main goal at this stage is to build up our strength, work for the public, and maintain good relations with the authorities."

"These relations should be to the extent that if someone tries to harm me, the authorities won’t agree to it immediately."

Hearing this, Kang Yue suddenly turned around.

Busy with his own grooming, Shen Dong didn’t notice Kang Yue’s peculiar expression, his mind still wrapped up in his plans, "Why can the Prince just decide to take us down and succeed? Ultimately, it’s because our influence isn’t strong enough."

"Last time, when Hongda had a cash flow problem and nearly went bankrupt, the authorities actually stepped in to help attract investment, know why?"

"At its peak, Hongda solved the employment problem for more than ten thousand people, boosting the surrounding food and beverage industry. In essence, if Hongda fell, Hai City’s economy would collapse. We, too, need to reach that level."

No one knew what Kang Yue was thinking, but she suddenly cracked a smile, turned back to the computer, and started tapping away on the keyboard, "Hey, there’s an antique street nearby, wanna check it out?"

"You get it?"

"I don’t, but we could pick up some cheap stuff in bulk. We’re going to set up the Volcano Wellness Center, and these things could be used to decorate the place."

Shen Dong thought it made sense. Since they were going to have fun anyway, the antique street wasn’t a bad place to spend time at.

He had a brainwave, texting the news about the need for thirty million smartphones to Zhao Wenliang. Then, Shen Dong set his phone to silent mode and followed Kang Yue for a bit of indulgent fun.

Now, Kang Yue was really pleased with herself, hearing people say wherever she went, "Hey, your brother is really smart."

"Brother," Kang Yue said, holding two candied haw sticks, standing under the sign of the antique street, "Today your sister will make you rich, make a fortune!"

Their relationship had already become unusual, and there were no reservations in their conversations.

But to others, Kang Yue, in her fine clothes, looked like a big mark.

Not far from the entrance of the street, a group of middle-aged men squatting on the job exchanged glances. One of them approached while the others headed into the antique street.

Unaware they were being targeted, Shen Dong and Kang Yue casually browsed, looking at the small booths and shops, where everything seemed like an antique, "Hey, that Pixiu looks pretty powerful."

"The jade one?"

"How would I know?" Shen Dong, a total greenhorn, asked bluntly, "Boss, how much for this Pixiu?"

"Eight thousand."

"That’s a bit pricey. Hey, let’s go see something else." Shen Dong didn’t think much of it and stood up to leave.

The vendor ’heh’ed, suddenly getting anxious, "Early in the morning, are you taking me for a fool? Come back here, come back!"
