436: A sea change

Wang Ye was relatively far from Digital Future City, and it took him a full hour or two to arrive.

Originally, Wang Ye thought they had only taken over a small storefront, but who knew they had acquired such a large area.

Su Yue looked at his shocked expression and smiled, "From now on, this place will be your territory."

Hearing Su Yue plan to hand this place over to him, Wang Ye looked embarrassed, "Hand it to me? Won't that be too..."

Su Yue shook his head repeatedly, "With your talent, this Digital Future City might be a bit small, but it's perfect for your development."

Currently, only people in this city know his robots are the best.

If his robots are promoted to all cities in the future, I believe Digital Future City can spread everywhere.

Wang Ye looked at the great opportunity Su Yue had given him, his face full of emotion, "Thank you."

If it weren't for Yuantu Investment, he believed he would just be someone barely surviving.

And this time, looking at the Digital Future City before him, he felt that he could definitely make a big splash.

In just a few minutes, the three of them arrived in the main hall of Digital Future City.

At this time, there were no outsiders in the hall.

Su Yue pointed at the equipment inside, "I only have one request: please build this place into a real technology city."

Currently, there are only a few virtual reality devices here, so it cannot truly be called a so-called Digital Future City.

Hearing Su Yue needed him to renovate the place, Wang Ye glanced at the time on his watch, "Give me a week."

Su Yue originally thought he would need at least a month or two, but who knew he only needed a week.

Before Su Yue could say anything, Lan Zijun's voice came from behind.

Everyone turned their gaze to Lan Zijun, their brows slightly furrowed, "President Lan, why are you here?"

Lan Zijun pointed her chin towards Wang Ye, "How much money and how many people do you need these next few days? We, Yuantu Investment, will sponsor you."

Wang Ye originally wanted to say some words of gratitude, but Lan Zijun cut him off.

"Business is business, and personal is personal. You came this time entirely for our sake, and I am willing to pay you a high salary."

When Wang Ye learned he would be compensated for coming here, he secretly glanced at Su Yue, as if wanting to see what Su Yue would say.

Su Yue saw Wang Ye looking at him and chuckled, "This is the compensation we are giving you, just take it."

They had only met Wang Ye by chance; it was impossible for him to help them for free.

Lan Zijun saw that the time was about right and walked over to Su Yue, "If there's nothing else, shall we... go?"

In her opinion, the Boss staying here was the most troublesome thing.

Wang Ye was impeccable when it came to making robots, but his courage was too small, and he didn't want anyone managing him around.

Hearing Lan Zijun say this, Su Yue nodded slightly, "Liu Long is here; let's have him arrange something for us to eat."

Liu Long originally thought he was done for the day, but who knew they would eventually turn their attention to him.

Having no other choice, Liu Long reluctantly agreed, "You two Bosses are joking. I'll arrange it for you right away."

Su Yue looked at Liu Long's confidence in his hotel and couldn't help but stop him, "Then we'll have to do a surprise inspection."

If he had called the hotel in advance, the people there would surely have prepared for them.

Conversely, without calling them in advance, it would be their normal state.

Hearing Su Yue wouldn't let him call, Liu Long instinctively glanced at Lan Zijun, wanting to see what she thought.

Lan Zijun knew Su Yue was also doing this for the good of Yuantu Investment, so she nodded slightly, "Then let's do a surprise inspection."

As the controlling company, they certainly needed to inspect their subsidiary companies.

If any subsidiary company had a bad reputation, Yuantu Investment's reputation wouldn't be much better.

It didn't take long before the three of them were in a car, driving towards their destination at the fastest speed.

It only took ten minutes for them to arrive at the nearest Muxin Hotel.

Currently, Muxin Hotel has no General Manager and is being run solely by Liu Long.

As soon as their car stopped at the entrance, reception staff immediately came to their car and opened the doors for them.

Su Yue looked at their familiar actions and smiled, "It seems you really put in the effort this time."

Liu Long shrugged indifferently, "If there's a problem at the headquarters, I can't escape responsibility."

In his eyes, if the Muxin Hotel headquarters had poor service, it would be his personal problem.

Soon, they arrived in the lobby.

The General Manager on duty saw Su Yue and the others from afar and walked over with a smile, "What brings you here?"

Hearing the General Manager on duty still had the mood to joke, Liu Long quickly pointed inside, "The chefs haven't left yet, have they?"

The General Manager on duty glanced at the time on his watch, looking awkward, "At this hour, the head chef should have left."

Su Yue learned that the head chef had left the hotel and subconsciously glanced at the time on his watch.

It was already past three in the afternoon, not a mealtime, so it was normal for the head chef not to be there.

Liu Long learned the head chef wasn't there and awkwardly walked up to Su Yue, "Look, we came at a bad time."

In just a few seconds, he seemed to think of something and pointed outside, "I know a good Cantonese restaurant, how about...?"

Su Yue shrugged indifferently, "It doesn't matter if the head chef is gone, let the other chefs cook. We'll pay overtime."

Lan Zijun heard Su Yue wanted to try the food made by other chefs and nodded slightly, "Yes, let's try theirs."

To prevent the chefs from thinking they were being difficult, Su Yue specifically instructed, "Just make a few simple home-style dishes."

In his eyes, some dishes take time to prepare, and they had no reason to make things difficult for others.

No matter what, it was after work hours now.

Seeing them say this, Liu Long immediately took the General Manager on duty towards the kitchen.

From his appearance, it seemed he wanted to personally give instructions.

As soon as the two of them left, Lan Zijun looked at Su Yue with confusion, "Why are you insisting on staying here?"

Hearing Lan Zijun's question, Su Yue chuckled, "Only this way can we know the hotel's true strength."

If they were given time to prepare, the things they made would definitely be exquisite in every way.

But that way, Su Yue wouldn't be able to see their most authentic state, and thus wouldn't know their character.

Lan Zijun looked at Su Yue analyzing everything for her and nodded slightly, "Then let's see how their food tastes."

However, before the dishes were served, Su Yue's phone in his pocket rang.

Su Yue instinctively looked at the number on his phone, his brow slightly furrowed, "Wang Ye is calling me."

At this time, Wang Ye was in Digital Future City preparing for the virtual industry matters.

He had no idea why Wang Ye would call at such a time, but he had a bad feeling.

Su Yue put the phone on speaker and placed it on the table, "President Wang, what's the matter?"

Wang Ye heard Su Yue's voice and immediately said to Su Yue, "Come quickly, someone is causing trouble here."

Su Yue and Lan Zijun exchanged glances, their faces filled with confusion, having no idea who would dare to cause trouble there.

Moreover, Digital Future City had always been empty; why would they encounter such trouble just after taking over?

Su Yue pondered for a moment and reminded him, "First, find a way to film them and keep the evidence."

Lan Zijun, worried about their safety, then reminded him, "You must protect yourselves too."

As the call ended, Lan Zijun instinctively looked at Su Yue, "General Manager Su, should we... leave here?"

Su Yue shook his head slightly, "We can't be too proactive. Let Wang Ye handle it first. I'm thinking about who would come to cause trouble."

Digital Future City had always been empty; there was no reason for anyone to cause trouble.

Just then, Liu Long came up from the back with the chefs, holding many exquisite dishes in his hands.

Even though they were only prepared on short notice, the dishes they made this time were still excellent in color, aroma, and taste.

Su Yue looked at the delicious food on the table and chuckled, "I told you you wouldn't disappoint us."

Liu Long nodded slightly, "Because you came too late, we didn't have much raw ingredients left, so..."

At this time, there were only some vegetarian dishes in front of them; most meat dishes needed to wait for others to deliver them.

Su Yue shrugged indifferently, "It's okay, eating meat every day isn't good either. We want to eat something like this."

Liu Long saw that they were both very satisfied, and the stone in his heart finally fell.

In his eyes, his job required the support of Su Yue and Lan Zijun.

If neither of them was willing to support him, he wouldn't be able to keep his job at all.

Unconsciously, the two of them had been in the hotel for half an hour.

To prevent the situation at Digital Future City from escalating, Su Yue called Liu Ran and asked him to bring people with him.

Liu Ran was in charge of a security company employed by Yuantu Investment, and their people were skilled fighters.

When Liu Ran learned that a subsidiary company of Yuantu Investment had an incident, he immediately selected many capable fighters to follow behind.

It didn't take long for Liu Ran to arrive at the entrance of Digital Future City.

Su Yue and Lan Zijun arrived late, and the group drove inside.

At this time, there was no sign of those people inside.

Wang Ye looked at them returning, his face full of bitterness, "Look at the things inside, they've all been destroyed."

Hearing Wang Ye say this, Su Yue waved his hand repeatedly, "It's okay, did you record them?"

In his eyes, Wang Ye was a talent in high technology; he believed he must have recorded the corresponding footage.

Indeed, Wang Ye put the phone in Su Yue's hand, "Here, this is the whole process."

Su Yue took the phone with both hands and took a deep breath, "I've never seen these people before."

Originally, he thought the people who came to cause trouble should be Fang Tianhai's people, but who knew these people were all strangers to him.

Lan Zijun didn't understand the identity of those people and leaned closer to Su Yue, "How is it? Do you know these people?"

Su Yue shook his head slightly, "I haven't seen them before. It's possible they weren't sent by Fang Tianhai."

Just as the few of them were hesitating, Liu Long's voice came from behind, "Can I take a look? I think I know him."

Su Yue and Lan Zijun exchanged glances, their faces full of surprise, having no idea why he would know them.

In their eyes, Liu Long was just a shareholder; it was impossible for him to know people from the underworld.

However, since he had spoken, Su Yue couldn't refuse him face and placed the phone in front of him.

Liu Long took the phone with both hands and pointed at one of the people, "That's right, it's this kid."

Su Yue looked at him recognizing one of the people, his face full of curiosity, "Then tell me, who is this person?"

Liu Long took a deep breath, "I don't know if you noticed, but he's the security guard who was standing at the entrance."

Su Yue looked at Liu Long in surprise, not expecting his identity to be so simple.

Since they already knew that person's identity, the subsequent investigation naturally went smoothly.

Su Yue called Fang Tianhai, wanting to ask if he still had contact information for their former security personnel.

When Fang Tianhai heard they needed the security personnel's phone numbers, he looked confused, not understanding why they needed them.

Su Yue didn't hide anything and told him about them smashing the tables.

After learning about this, Fang Tianhai hesitantly sent the phone number to Su Yue's phone.

He felt that he no longer had any connection with Digital Future City, so there was no need for him to get involved in their affairs.

However, since Su Yue had called him directly, he had no choice.

It didn't take long before Su Yue called the security personnel and said directly, "Did you come and smash our Digital Future City?"

When the person on the other end heard Su Yue's voice, how could they not know that they had been investigated?

Instantly, their temper flared up, "Yes, I smashed your Digital Future City, do you have a problem with that? It's because you didn't pay us!"

Before Su Yue could say anything, the call was hung up.

It was precisely because of their words that Su Yue vaguely sensed something was wrong.

He walked up to Lan Zijun, his brow slightly furrowed, "President Lan, were their salaries settled?"

Su Yue originally thought Lan Zijun must have seen Fang Tianhai pay those people, but who knew Lan Zijun hadn't seen it with her own eyes at all.

Instantly, Su Yue understood and gasped, "Fang Tianhai might have hidden it from us; he didn't pay them!"
