Ye Hao certainly doesn't need Mude's help; he doesn't want to rely on others for everything. This way, he'd end up owing favors...
"Ye, if you need anything, just call me. I'm not one to forget loyalty for profit, nor do I discuss profit all day. I'm always generous with my brothers," Mude expressed his character.
Ran Tai thought to himself that if Mude wasn't stingy, then there's no stingy person left in the world. If they hadn't given him a million rupees earlier, seeing their boss would still be uncertain.
"I know, but there's really no need for your help, big brother. We can handle these small matters ourselves," Ye Hao said with a smile.
"Alright, once you've dealt with everything, come by to hang out," Mude said cheerfully.
"That's all for today. As for the two billion RMB, I'll invest it into the construction as soon as possible. The longest beach in the world is something worth looking forward to," Ye Hao said confidently.
"Haha, then let's witness the birth of the world's longest beach together!" Mude also laughed heartily.
After chatting a bit more, Ye Hao left, but by the time he departed, it was already noon.
Ye Hao returned to the Grand Luxe Hotel. Upon arrival, Ye Hao gathered everyone to the top floor for a meeting.
Xue Zhaolong, Qin Qing, Zheng Guang, Ran Tai, Duke of Thunder, and others were all present.
Ye Hao didn't hide anything and directly said, "Brothers, I plan to transfer two billion from Grand Luxe to develop Pakistan. Do you have any thoughts on this?"
"Will it make money?" Lu Yunsong asked.
"Not in the initial investment period," Ye Hao shook his head and said.
"Then why invest at all?" Lu Yunsong queried.
At this moment, Duke of Thunder chimed in, "Maybe the boss values Karachi in Pakistan as a strategic location, it's near the sea, with lots of unused land ready for development. All these advantages attracted the boss to this place. That's why he wants to invest a significant amount to secure the support of Pakistani citizens, thereby establishing our position in Pakistan step by step."
Lu Yunsong, confused, asked, "What's it got to do with us?"
"Think about it! Isn't our Submarine Dragon supposed to come from the sea? What's our primary goal coming to Pakistan?" Ran Tai asked, glaring at Lu Yunsong.
"To be arms dealers, to occupy territory!" Lu Yunsong replied matter-of-factly.
"Exactly, if we're arms dealers, can we operate without strong backing? We can't, right? So the boss visited General Mude mainly to have General Mude look after us. As long as he does, we can sell large amounts of weaponry under his protection and gradually secure our foothold in Southeast Asia. Investing two billion in Pakistan is entirely a foundation for future development," Ran Tai explained.
"Future development?" The others turned to ask, knowing they hadn't accompanied Ye Hao in visiting General Mude and weren't aware of Ye Hao's future plans.
"Yes! In the future, the boss plans to develop Karachi into a commercial city because the location is suitable for it. It has India to the east and Afghanistan to the west; once we open up routes between these areas, Karachi's development is assured. Once Karachi is thriving, our other industry, tourism, will be a major profit-maker," Ran Tai shared Ye Hao's ideas discussed with General Mude.
"Tourism industry? Specifically, what does it entail?"
"The longest beach in the world, along with developing some scenic routes in the Primordial Forest for exploration..." Ran Tai replied.
"Boss, we don't understand investment. You should discuss it with President Qin!" Xue Zhaolong remarked, indicating his disinterest in dealing with such matters, as his shares were tied up in Grand Luxe. Whether it's used for investment or research, profits or losses aren't his concern as long as Qin Xiweng and Ye Hao are handling it.
"I don't really understand either, so you decide, boss!" Zhuorong Town shook his head, revealing that despite their upbringing in a business family, they have no desire to engage in commerce preferring more exhilarating and passionate lifestyles with Ye Hao.
"Haha, yes, let's consult with President Qin. We have no issues," everyone agreed, indicating no objections.
After all, Grand Luxe wouldn't treat them poorly. If there's a loss, they'd merely get a smaller share. If there's profit, Grand Luxe wouldn't shortchange them.
Ye Hao's brothers and subordinates are notably broad-minded, contrary to others who fuss over trifles, even fighting for as little as thirty to fifty bucks.
"Alright! With you guys as brothers, I'm quite worn out," Ye Hao sighed before dialing Qin Xiweng in front of them.
It's around four or five in the morning in Huaxia; Qin Xiweng was already up reviewing documents.
Ji Zhengxue hadn't been disturbed; she was sleeping while he worked alone.
The phone rang, and he promptly answered, knowing that it was Ye Hao calling given the hour.
Others dared not disturb Qin Xiweng at this hour, as he remains the visible boss of Grand Luxe. Waking him early would mean offending the God of Wealth.
"Chairman," Qin Xiweng greeted upon answering.
"Haha, Xi Wen, what time is it in Huaxia?" Ye Hao asked.
"Four-thirty," Qin Xiweng responded truthfully.
"Health is important, don't always get up so early; you'll wear out your body," Ye Hao casually remarked, but the concern was evident to all brothers present.
"Understood, Chairman. What brings you to call at this hour?"
"Xi Wen, in a while, you should bring people over to inspect the area. I plan to develop in Karachi, Pakistan, and the first task is investing two billion, equivalent to over two hundred billion rupees here, to build the world's longest beach tourist attraction. Additionally, opening up a main line from India to Karachi, then connecting to Afghanistan to boost Karachi's economy. Do you think it's feasible?" Ye Hao inquired.
On the other end, Qin Xiweng's mind was rapidly processing the information Ye Hao shared.
After a moment, Qin Xiweng reluctantly said, "Chairman, if we're the only ones investing, I suggest we abandon the idea."
Ye Hao chuckled and asked, "Why?"
"Firstly, we won't recover our costs during the first-phase investment. I imagine the Chairman already has some tentative plan for the second phase, right? If we lack funds to circulate, how do we invest in the second phase?" Qin Xiweng, shrewdly, identified that solely relying on Grand Luxe wouldn't succeed.
"If I involve my father-in-law in the investment, what are your thoughts?" Ye Hao asked.
"That would depend on inspecting the local situation to give a proper answer," Qin Xiweng replied. (To be continued.
