Chapter 499: Hong Kong
Zhang Zhiqiang then took Zhang Lei into his car.
Sitting in the car, Zhang Lei felt a little annoyed. He understood why Ye Shuqin and the others were angry, but they should at least give him a chance to explain.
Throughout the journey, Zhang Lei listened to Zhang Zhiqiang's work reports.
Zhang Zhiqiang said, "Boss, the project on Ping Chau Island is basically completed. After you come back, would you like to move your accommodation to Ping Chau Island?"
Zhang Lei nodded after hearing this: "Now that it's built, let's move there. I'll feel more at ease there, and it'll save us from being disturbed."
Zhang Zhiqiang replied, "Yes."
Zhang Zhiqiang continued, "Saigon has stabilized. Currently, the entire Saigon is being garrisoned and developed by our people. The first port to be built has been completed, and the channels connecting to Southeast Asia have also been established."
Zhang Lei listened somewhat absentmindedly, and casually nodded: "That's good. Have Zhang Batian maintain order over there and prevent other people with ulterior motives from going in and causing trouble."
Zhang Zhiqiang then reported, "Our film company's first movie, 'God of Gamblers,' has been released and has currently earned over 20 million Hong Kong dollars. Because it's our first time, we haven't arbitrarily distributed profits according to the profit-sharing method you mentioned."
Zhang Lei thought for a moment and said, "Let's wait a couple of days. After I've rested, I'll go to the film company and share the money with them."
Zhang Zhiqiang wanted to say something more, but Zhang Lei interrupted him directly: "Alright, you can handle these things yourself. Unless you incur losses, you can decide for yourself. I just want the results."
Zhang Zhiqiang said no more after hearing this.
The convoy soon arrived at the Repulse Bay Villa.
As soon as Zhang Lei returned home, he saw fifteen pairs of eyes staring intently at him, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly dropped several degrees. Ye Shuqin sat in the main seat, her expression serious.
Zhang Lei smiled and looked at his fifteen wives, whose expressions were solemn, and said, "What's wrong, everyone? I've missed you all so much!"
Ye Shuqin said directly, "Miss us? Honey, you're really joking. You haven't been back for almost half a year, and you bring us such a big surprise as soon as you come back."
Chen Xueru chimed in, "Yeah, that guy. We thought he was working hard and worrying about him all the time, but who knew he was having a good time with over a hundred beautiful women, including Japanese women."
He Yushui, who was standing next to him, chimed in, "Yeah, that's right. I don't know why they're looking for so many Japanese women."
Listening to everyone's comments, Zhang Lei felt like he was being subjected to a personal denunciation meeting, and quickly begged for mercy, "Stop, stop, stop! I know you won't believe me no matter what I say, but let me show you that I really did something very meaningful this time. The reason I brought them back was to provide cover. Don't worry, if you don't like them, I can arrange for them to be placed elsewhere, and you will never see them."
Everyone was stunned after hearing Zhang Lei's words.
Zhang Lei had them hold hands and instantly brought everyone into his personal space. Once inside, he displayed all his gains from Japan.
There were neatly arranged piles of antiques on one side, and on the other side were mountains of US dollars and British pounds, a small amount of Japanese yen, and countless gold and jewelry.
Seeing the surprised looks on his wives' faces, Zhang Lei said proudly, "How about that? See? This is what I got from my trip to Japan."
Ye Shuqin walked up to Zhang Lei and asked, "Honey, did you do all this?"
Zhang Lei nodded.
Ye Shuqi also came over and said, "Honey, you don't know, the news about Japan these past two days has caused a global uproar. I never expected that the mastermind behind it all was you."
Others also started asking Zhang Lei about his experiences in Japan, and Zhang Lei patiently answered them one by one.
When everyone heard that Zhang Lei had appeared and disappeared mysteriously and robbed multiple banks, museums, and even military bases, they were all terrified.
Zhang Lei declared with righteous indignation that everything he did was for their future, and only then did Ye Shuqin and the others forgive him.
Seeing that their emotions had calmed down, Zhang Lei quickly began to recount the tragic experiences of Qingmuzi and more than a hundred other women, claiming that he had taken them in out of great love and also to provide cover for his operations. Ye Shuqin rolled her eyes at this.
Ye Shuqin walked up to Zhang Lei and said, "Honey, you've been gone for so long, isn't it time to pay your taxes?"
Soon, at Ye Shuqin's prompting, everyone understood that Zhang Lei should fulfill his duties as a husband.
As Zhang Lei watched his wives approach one by one, he could only silently fulfill his responsibilities.
As the saying goes, women are like wolves at thirty and tigers at forty. Although Ye Shuqin and her companions are not yet thirty, their fighting prowess is extraordinary.
For fifteen days straight, Zhang Lei stayed in the space with Ye Shuqin and the others until he was completely exhausted, at which point they finally let him go.
Ye Shuqin lay down next to Zhang Lei and said, "Honey, I don't care how many other women like you have around you, but the fifteen of us will always be the closest people to you."
Zhang Lei nodded and said, "Don't worry, those hundred-odd people are different from you. Just like this personal space, they'll never know about it, while you can come in anytime, anywhere."
Ye Shuqin nodded and said, "That's good. But there's one thing you need to remember: you can have fun, but they can't get pregnant. Otherwise, I'll cut off your genitals."
Upon hearing Ye Shuqin's words, Zhang Lei was so frightened that he immediately covered his lower body and said, "Don't worry, it definitely won't happen."
Ye Shuqin couldn't help but reach out and pinch Zhang Lei's waist, giving him a hard spin, and said, "If you're really looking for something new, just tell us. You can find any country you want, just not the Japanese, understand? We'll let it go this time. They can be your playthings, we'll just ignore them and not let them appear in front of us."
Zhang Lei quickly tried to coax Ye Shuqin.
Seeing Zhang Lei's expression, Ye Shuqin had no choice but to give up. She knew her man's personality; he definitely couldn't give up those hundred-plus women, and would only resent her in the end. So Ye Shuqin thought that as long as she didn't see those hundred-plus women, it would be fine.
The two quickly left the space and returned to the Repulse Bay villa.
Zhang Lei went straight back to his room to rest. After such a long period of exertion, his body could still hold on, but his mind simply couldn't take it anymore.
On the other side, Ye Shuqin and fifteen others gathered together to discuss the matter.
Ye Shuhua said with a smile, "Sister, your idea is brilliant. Let's see if our boss still has the energy to go find those female devils."
Ye Shuqin shook her head and said, "Alright, I've already spoken to the head of the household about their affairs. He's just playing around with them, so don't take it to heart. You've all seen how capable our head of the household is; he has so much money in his spatial dimension that none of us could spend it all in ten lifetimes. Besides, he risked everything to steal back so much wealth for our sake."
Guan Xiaoguan, who was standing to the side, said, "Although what you said makes sense, I still feel uncomfortable."
At this moment, Su Meng offered a suggestion: "Since we can't stop the head of the household from finding other women, why don't we help him find them? Rather than letting him look for random women outside, we might as well choose them ourselves and select those we approve of."
Yu Li, on the other side, happily chimed in, "That's right! Doesn't our family own a film and television company? Aren't all the actresses there beautiful? I took a look last time, and there were at least dozens of pretty girls. We'll bring them all over and assign them to Zhang Lei, then let's see if he still has the mind to go looking for those Japanese women."
Everyone thought it was an excellent idea.
Ye Shuqin nodded in satisfaction and said, "Okay, if everyone thinks it's good, then it's settled. We'll talk to each person one by one later. As long as it's a problem that can be solved with money, it's not a problem."
