In the end, with no other options, Li Yi and the others could only dig into their own pockets to build the runway for Hanglong No.1.
"There's nothing to feel wronged about. We all know the boss and President Qin are busy. We've got money, we front it first, it's the sa. Wealth belongs to us." Li Yi laughed. Even though he'd already started a family and was about to beco a father, everything he had was given by Ye Hao, so he had not the slightest complaint about putting up ten million to build this runway, and never even thought of taking it back from Wealth's finance departnt.
Sa old line: no matter how Wealth develops, it's still theirs.
"Hehe, yeah! But since Li ca over this morning, I figure sothing like this probably won't happen again, right?" Zhang Hua chuckled as he looked at Li Xiang, who had rushed over overnight from Shanghai.
"Hehe, you can relax about that kind of thing. As long as I, Li Xiang, am in charge of finance, as long as the money you want is justified, I can sign off on it." When Li Xiang arrived at Wealth's headquarters last night he'd been amazed, but when he thought about how he would be grasping the great power of Wealth in the future, he reined in all that excitent and secretly swore in his heart that he would work with the brothers of Wealth to make Wealth even bigger.
They were sowhat familiar with Wealth as well. This force was founded by a bunch of young people led by Ye Hao together with Xue Zhaolong, Zhuorong Town, Lu Yunsong, Xia Liu, Ding Haoyun, Qin Xiweng, and Aixinjueluo Xiaolong. The force was mostly made up of young people. For example, the various companies under Wealth were all currently run by young people.
So he wanted to blend in with all the brothers in Wealth, hoping Wealth would go further and further, and that this world would belong to the young.
"With those words from Director Li, we're relieved. I think the next phase of operations can speed up too." Zhang Hua said with a smile.
Li Xiang only smiled without speaking. He still didn't truly know how much usable capital Wealth's finances actually had. If he took everything on his shoulders now and it turned out there wasn't enough money, he'd only break his word, so for now he just smiled.
"Alright, what happened before, let's not bring it up. Look to the future, fight for the future." Ye Hao smiled. He knew Qin Xiweng hadn't felt great when he'd previously appointed Jiang Zi as finance director either, but what was done was done, bringing it up again was aningless, so he urged everyone to let go of the past and focus on what's ahead.
"Alright, fight for the future!" the many young people shouted in unison.
Then Li Yi laughed and said, "Boss, President Qin, General Manager Nangong, co with , there's a big guy I want to show you."
"Oh? What big guy?" Everyone was puzzled.
Only Ye Hao was thinking to himself whether this might be that Hanglong No.1 had been developed. If Hanglong No.1 was really finished, then Wealth's power would undergo an earth‑shaking change.
"Co on!" Li Yi said with a mysterious smile.
Everyone followed Li Yi, heading north on Wealth Island.
After walking about two hundred ters, they reached the end.
Nangong Tianmi asked, "Li, what are we doing here?"
"Hehe, you'll know in a minute." Li Yi took a small blue earpiece from his pocket and stuck it in his ear, then pressed a button.
Once the call connected, Li Yi said, "Brother Ye Lang, the boss is back, open the bay."
On the other side of the comms, a middle‑aged man in full gear, dressed in sharp combat equipnt, was holding an H-5 in both hands.
The H-5, Wealth's most advanced enemy‑control weapon. Why call it 'enemy‑control'? Because what it fires isn't bullets with prir, but hardened rubber pellets made of rubber. These pellets don't kill; they only cause such pain that the whole body goes numb, and only when that pain fades can a person move freely again.
Although this weapon couldn't compare to laser or ray‑type guns, its biggest advantage was that every shot it fired was ant for controlling enemies.
This middle‑aged man was none other than Ye Lang, who had gone through life‑and‑death with Ye Hao in the past. Fei Gou was standing not far from him. The two of them were responsible for coordinating the entire Wealth battle squad.
At this mont Wealth's battle squad had already grown to over a hundred people. Although not every single one of them practiced National Martial Arts, every one of them had definitely seen real combat. Plus, with so Huaxia retired special forces that Ye Long had sent over, Wealth's battle squad was simply not sothing ordinary regular troops could compare with.
"What? The boss is back?" Ye Lang got so excited that his finger accidentally squeezed the trigger, giving Fei Gou a good scare…
Fei Gou had of course experienced the power of the H-5. That feeling had left him numb, convulsing, in pain and struggling for an entire day. Even now he still shuddered at the nightmare the H-5 had given him.
"Yeah." Li Yi laughed from above.
Hearing this, Ye Lang imdiately pressed a button.
As soon as Ye Lang pressed that button, the place where they were standing suddenly began rumbling.
Then the ground began to rise upward.
Seeing this, Ye Hao smiled. So there was actually an underground base built under Wealth Island. But just how big was this underground base?
When Ye Lang and the others had risen about one story above ground, Ye Lang and Fei Gou led fifty n out. Every one of them was wearing quality combat gear, and that imposing aura made Gambling Life, Lv Dong and the others secretly sigh that street fighters could never compare to regular or special forces.
Ye Lang and Fei Gou stopped about ten ters in front of Ye Hao and the others, and Ye Lang shouted loudly, "Boss!"
"Boss…" The young n behind him shouted in unison as well. Their average age was around thirty, and the force of their aura scared Bai Linglong in Ye Hao's arms so much she didn't dare look straight at them.
"Hahaha, brothers, you've worked hard." Just from Ye Lang and Fei Gou's outfits, Ye Hao could tell that Heaven-Filling Heroic Spirit Island had cooked up a lot of new stuff.
Even things like the new light combat gear, the H-5s, and so simple climbing buggies were all clearly laid out inside the underground base.
"Not hard!" everyone shouted in unison.
Ye Lang tossed his gun to Fei Gou, then walked up laughing and said to Ye Hao, "Hahaha, boss, long ti no see. You've gotten even more solid."
"You're not bad either, Lang. I heard you even have a wife now, and your son can almost call you 'dad' already?" Ye Hao asked with a smile.
"How could he call dad, he was just born a month ago." Ye Lang laughed.
"Since my sister‑in‑law's had the baby, spend more ti with her." Ye Hao smiled and patted Ye Lang's shoulder.
Hearing this, Fei Gou stepped up and said, "Boss, Lang said the stuff here at Wealth is too valuable, he can't leave it for even a mont. So every month he has watch over the Wealth Island base for two hours, and he goes over to the back mountain of Heaven-Filling Heroic Spirit Island to see Sister‑in‑law Lang. The rest of the ti he's guarding this underground depot."
Hearing this, a thought stirred in Ye Hao's heart. This Ye Lang was really loyal! Ye Hao gave Ye Lang a heavy pat on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Lang, I'm giving you half a month off. Go keep your wife company. The stuff on Wealth Island is precious, but love, family, and brotherhood are even more precious. Go ho."
"Boss…" (To be continued. If you like this work, you're welco to go to Qidian (qidian) to vote for recomndations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please go to m.qidian to read.)
