[Ding! You have gained 100.33 million yuan in wealth points. Your current wealth balance is 122.505 million yuan.]

Lin Dong's net worth has exceeded 100 million for the first time.

Damn it, in this lifetime, I've finally experienced what it's like to be incredibly wealthy with assets exceeding 100 million.

Based on current per capita income and overall price levels, the more than 100 million yuan in 1996 would be roughly equivalent to more than 3 billion yuan in 2023.

It feels so good to be a billionaire!

Lin Dong now owns 11 luxury villas and over 100 million yuan in cash. He's only just entered society, yet he's already outpaced most people in the world.

Therefore, hard work does not guarantee success; some people are simply blessed by God from the start.

For example, Lin Dong in this life.

But what does this little achievement mean to a reborn person with lofty ambitions?

Our goal is to unify the underworld and become the most powerful, richest, and most influential gangster boss on the planet.

...

The 100 million yuan of black gold from Wanqing Mountain has been converted, so the Marriott Resort is no longer as attractive.

Lin Dong personally selected a reliable interior design company to carry out a complete upgrade and renovation for his villa, No. 98.

There's no upper limit to the renovation budget; he'll go for the most luxurious option, since money is the last thing he's short of right now.

The mundane tasks of renovation and supervision were naturally left to Sun Jialu.

Lin Dong's current focus is on two things: Wanqi Electric's expansion plan to the north, and how to convert Gao Qijiang and Wang Hu's black money.

Lin Dong has already taken in two of the four wealthiest men in the North District underworld, and he's getting closer and closer to becoming the richest man in the North District. Hehe.

However, Lin Dong has been pondering a question lately:

Isn't it too slow to collect black money by converting each one individually?

The best long-term strategy is to quickly recruit and establish underground forces to convert illicit funds into cash on a large scale and sustainably.

There's an even better shortcut: open an underground bank.

Once a good reputation and credibility are established, large amounts of money that need to be laundered, as well as illicit funds that need to be transferred across borders, will continuously flock to the area.

Back then, not to mention the high commission rates, the daily conversion of black gold alone would have made Lin Dong ecstatic... Hehe, just thinking about it makes me excited.

However, setting up an underground bank from scratch is not so easy.

Lin Dong's foundation is still very weak; compared to the major forces in the underworld, he's still too inexperienced.

No rush, let's take it one step at a time. We have a golden touch, who are we afraid of?

...

These days, Yu Ziyun spends most of her time at the Queen's Bar, and she rarely inquires about the underground casino.

She didn't know what had gotten into her, but these days, the young man's face and figure were constantly on her mind.

The daytime was a bit better; I could sleep soundly thanks to the effects of the alcohol from the night before.

But at night, facing the bright lights, wild and intoxicating atmosphere of the bars, her heart always felt restless.

That hateful guy Lin Dong unintentionally started a fire, and then irresponsibly turned away.

Don't you know that a woman in her thirties is like a wolf, and her parched genitals are the most vulnerable to being teased?

At 10 p.m., the Queen's Bar is at its liveliest.

A group of men and women, letting loose and indulging in a life of hedonism through intense music and alcohol.

The VIP section on the second floor had only two or three tables occupied.

Of course, to be able to sit on the second floor, one not only needs to be rich, but also needs to have a certain status and position.

At a bar seat near the railing, Yu Ziyun, wearing a dark green sweater and black flared trousers, leaned back, looking exceptionally languid and alluring.

Her gaze swept listlessly over the noisy men and women downstairs, occasionally picking up the red wine on the table and taking a small sip.

In the deep red wine glass, a hint of self-admiration and an unconcealable sense of loneliness lingered.

Opposite her sat a man in blue robes who appeared to be about thirty years old. There was no wine in front of him, only a glass of clear water.

He's been sitting here for almost an hour.

Only when the man's cold and indifferent face occasionally glanced at the woman opposite him did a hint of tenderness inadvertently appear.

"Ziyun, do you know Lin Dong?"

The man in blue finally broke the silence and asked coldly.

"We know each other, so what?"

Yu Ziyun withdrew her gaze from downstairs and answered casually.

"My master and I have met him. This man is no ordinary person. In my master's words, it is:"

A dragon among men, if left to his hidden potential, is still valuable; but if he becomes too prominent, he is easily broken.

The man said calmly, picked up the glass of water on the table, and took a sip.

"What attitude will you... or rather, the Cloud Shadow Society, take towards him? Appeasement? Or suppression?"

Yu Ziyun sat up straight, staring intently at him.

“You don’t need to look at me like that. I, Lu Changkong, know that I have no ability to influence the decisions of the big shots. I’m only here to test the waters.”

"Testing?"

"Yes, firstly, it is a test of strength; secondly, a test of character; and thirdly, a test of intention."

"Have you figured it out yet?"

"not yet."

Upon hearing this, Yu Ziyun stopped asking questions, poured herself another glass of red wine, and this time she didn't savor it but drank it all in one gulp.

She glared at Lu Changkong, her voice trembling slightly as she said:

"What do you want to do? Tell me."

"You arrange to meet him, and I'll take care of the rest."

"good."

...

When Lin Dong received the call from Yu Ziyun, he was taken aback.
