In the southeast corner of the city of the brave, the houses here are obviously much more ornate and magnificent than those in other places, and it should have been a wealthy area where Nice people, dignitaries, nobles, businessmen and celebrities lived. Most of the houses are large houses with separate courtyards, and their architecture looks like the medieval Baroque on earth.

These mansions were empty and borderless before the Earth Demon Hunters arrived, and most of the owners died in the wars and catastrophes. As a result, some government organizations, military and civilian forces occupied these houses as a stronghold in the other world.

Sixty-five-year-old Tang Jianguo stood in front of the window of a small three-story building, looking at the courtyard below with slightly cloudy eyes. This courtyard is not small, and the square area is several thousand square meters, but at the moment it is full of various building materials and sawn down trees, which looks cluttered. Some simple bungalows and small buildings are being built in the yard, and busy workers are climbing up and down on scaffolding.

It's not easy to live in another world, and all kinds of tools and materials are very scarce. As for the large-scale mechanized equipment that the earth has long been accustomed to, it is not even necessary to think about it. So watching the workers below build the house with the most primitive hand-built manry, this made Tang Jianguo, who originally owned a large real estate group company, feel very depressed.

There was originally a small pond and garden in this courtyard, and some flashy houses, since the Tang family occupied the place, the old man Tang ordered the pond to be filled with trees, and all the ornate buildings that were loved by the Nice people were demolished, and after a new plan, more practical warehouses and dormitory buildings were built. Some of the building materials were made from the demolished masonry, and the other part had to be slowly transported from the other world through various relationships.

In another small clearing in the courtyard, about a few dozen people in camouflage uniforms were practicing in formation. The content is nothing more than the one in the army. Several instructors in full leather and bronze uniforms were shouting back and forth in the ranks, and people were constantly being pulled out of the ranks and screaming at the sound of leather whips and curses.

All trainees were new witchers who had been scoured from all over the world two weeks ago. They were selected and ranged in age from eighteen to thirty-eight. Good health, a strong sense of fighting, as long as it is systematically brainwashed and trained, it can become a powerful fighting force of its own family.

Seeing that the training of those newcomers was good, Old Man Tang finally grinned at the corners of his mouth, and the gray and hard beard stubble on his wrinkled face shook up and down with his loose skin.

He turned to his desk and sat down, slumped comfortably in the leather boss's chair. This chair has been with him for more than ten years, and he has become accustomed to it. Even when he came to the other world, he tried his best to bring the chair with him.

Not only this chair, but all the furniture in this room, even the famous calligraphy and painting hanging in front of him, are placed exactly in the same position as his previous office. When a person is old, he is very nostalgic, and only in his familiar environment can he calm down and think. As for the cost of doing all this in the other world, it was not his concern.

Because he is the pillar of the Tang family and the chairman of the board of directors of Ya'an Group.

A few decades ago, he was a penniless little red guy who relied on pulling a tricycle on the dock to eat. He never imagined that he would one day make a fortune.

It seemed that good luck began when he picked up a bag in a roadside ditch with a whole wad of old sheep tickets, and he counted it several times before he was sure it was a full two thousand dollars. In the era of the planned economy, he had to save money and work for several years to earn it.

Tang Jianguo never thought whose money it was? How to throw the question in this ditch. He burned the torch and bag clean, put the money in his pocket, bought a train ticket, and went to another city overnight. Then he used that money to start a roadside stall and resell small commodities to earn the first pot of gold in his life, and then rented a storefront to buy and sell bigger and bigger.

A few years later, Tang Jianguo came to the west again, and he learned from other sources that reselling coal was a lucrative business. Tang Jianguo has the shrewdness and drill spirit unique to the people at the bottom. With the madness of using money and women and daring to use all his net worth to gamble, Tang Jianguo finally got through all aspects of the relationship and got the first coal mine.

China's reform and opening-up economic development stimulated coal prices all the way up, and the Tang family really developed in a few years, and then through real estate and stocks. By the time the capital hosted the world-renowned Olympic Games, the Tang family had become one of the most influential wealth groups in the Han Kingdom.

But everything changed that night a few years ago.

That night, even though he was already powerful, he was woken up by a call from someone who couldn't refuse, hurriedly got into a mysterious black car at the door of the villa, and was sent directly to the airport, where a Gulfstream business plane without any signs was waiting for him.

A few hours later, he had arrived at a heavily guarded military base on the outskirts of the capital. After the most rigorous electronic scanning and thorough search, he was taken to a large enclosed conference room. Inside, he saw dozens of super-rich people who were as dazed and frightened as himself, and everyone, whether they knew each other or not, were trying to inquire about each other, wanting to know more information and insider information. Some even peed their pants thinking they were going to be secretly executed by the government.

Fortunately, they didn't have to wait too long in torment and fear, and a group of people came to the conference room. Among the leaders are the big names that often appear in the news.

There was no usual complicated procedure in the meeting that day, and the speeches of the big figures who were accustomed to long speeches were rarely straightforward and serious.

"According to our reliable intelligence, there will be an apocalyptic catastrophe on Earth in the next year, affecting more than half of the world, and hundreds of millions of humans may die. This will be the greatest disaster in the history of mankind, so for the sake of the entire nation and the safety of the Han Kingdom, I need everyone here to join hands and make a joint contribution. At the same time, it is not only for the sake of the motherland, but also for yourselves. Whoever has contributed to your own safety, including your family, will be properly resettled by the government to ensure your safety......"

“…… According to the market price, try to buy bulk food, medicine, all kinds of daily necessities and infrastructure materials from abroad. Stop all profiteering business activities such as financial investment, and transfer all funds to the acquisition of bulk materials and energy abroad. Participate in several key livelihood and infrastructure development projects in poverty-stricken mountainous areas of the country in the form of donations and shares......"

The bigwigs said a lot, but Tang Jianguo didn't completely care about what he heard, but desperately searched for the real meaning that the bigwigs wanted to express behind these words.

Because what that person said was so unbelievable that it was completely beyond his decades of life cognition. If he hadn't just gotten off the military plane and his ears were buzzing because he wasn't used to it, he would have thought he was dreaming. He believed that all the rich people present at that time were not fools, and they all knew what the big man wanted to say as well as he did.

There was confusion and suspicion in the room. Tang Jianguo remembered that many people had shocked and thoughtful looks in their eyes. The people present are all old people in the rivers and lakes, and even if they have various thoughts and feelings, they will only keep them in their hearts, and they can't see any expressions on the surface.

But he himself feels that the government is using an unprecedented reason and means to close the net, and is using an unbelievable way to swallow up their assets, which is very wrong. Given his decades of dealing with the government, it didn't look at all like the way he knew the top brass would do, so it was confusing to him.

Just as he was thinking nonsense, a video released later made him open his mouth wide. That video was supposedly filmed in an otherworld that has been discovered on Earth. Those bizarre monsters and flesh-and-blood humans made Tang Jianguo feel like he was watching a Hollywood horror blockbuster.

After the video was played, some top-secret information was played, indicating that it was scientifically speculated on how fast this alternate time and space would expand, how big the affected area would be, how serious the crisis facing the earth would be, and so on. When Tang Jianguo and the others were dizzy, before they could ask, the bigwigs hurriedly left the venue and walked away, leaving only the staff to communicate with them.

In the days that followed, they were placed under house arrest in the base one by one, and people from various government departments constantly came to communicate with them, many of which were both soft and hard.

After struggling and thinking about it repeatedly in his heart for several days, Tang Jianguo finally made up his mind and reached several agreements with the government. After signing the highest level of non-disclosure agreement, he was sent home.

After returning home, he and no one mentioned it, but suppressed all opposition in the family and began to buy large quantities of corn, soybeans, and rice from foreign markets as quickly as possible, as agreed. Soon the prices of various bulk materials in the international market began to rise at an unbelievable rate, and he still continued to buy despite the crazy spending of large sums of money.

Just when everyone thought he was crazy, Tang Jianguo stopped all the real estate projects and took out most of the remaining assets to invest in a civil defense project in a mountainous area under construction. Just when the whole family was about to riot and fall apart, his humble and obedient attitude finally paid off.
