The two sat in their respective vehicles and headed to an industrial zone on the outskirts of Nova City. Passing through many industrial plants, they came to a shabby-looking factory that was Blue Shining Building Materials' production base. As for its headquarters, it was actually in a civilian house next to this production base.

For such a company's headquarters to end up so desolate and dilapidated was truly pathetic. No wonder Mia planned to abandon this place. Any sensible businessperson could see that this place was beyond hope. Without technology, it could be relearned; without equipment, new equipment could be purchased. But if the workers' quality did not improve, that would be a huge problem.

However, in Justin's view, this was not a problem at all. With the System's help, he was confident he could rekindle the workers' former passion and diligence. This time, he did not plan to use the materials previously used. This related to the technical support the System provided.

    The moment the man flew out, he smashed many things. Many production tools on the shelves behind fell to the ground, and he lay among them, unable to get up. "Damn, this guy came to make trouble. Get him!" Seeing the situation turn grim, Zachary immediately exploded. He instantly gathered a large group of thugs posing as workers. Each took up sticks, steel pipes, ready to take action at the slightest disagreement. Judging by their momentum, they were poised for a gang fight. Justin coldly watched all this, knowing these were not good people, but he never imagined they would be so reprehensible, simply a group of thugs! "Mrs. Ross, these are your company's employees? You can recruit such people? I never thought Stellar Corporation's recruitment standards would be so low," he said with a cold laugh, not forgetting to mock her a few times. This made Mia's face even more unpleasant. "I never imagined there would be such employees in my company either. It seems time for a good rect

    "Don't worry about that. I have a clever plan." Justin's frosty smile conveyed an air of confidence, as if no difficulty could faze him. At this moment, Mia suddenly felt that the young man before her was rather extraordinary. He seemed to possess an immense self-confidence, as if all troubles were trivial to him. After some thought, she eventually nodded and decided to hand the company over to Justin. The company had already deteriorated to an unsalvageable extent. She lacked the energy and time to manage and restructure such a small company. It was like a useless thing— tasteless to keep but a pity to abandon. Rather than wasting more time on it, it would be better to give it to Justin now. However, Justin did not intend to accept it. Although free gifts were always nice, accepting it would mean owing Mia a favor. And owing favors to others was what he hated the most. Besides, he had no shortage of money. On the contrary, the more he spent, the more Super Rich Points he gained

    Upon hearing this, Zachary and Isaac were stunned."Alright, it's settled then. I'll personally supervise you in the next two days to ensure the work is done. As I said, those who work more will earn more. Now get to work, time is running out."Originally, the workers were ready to start working. However, looking around, all they could see were piles of scrap materials and layers of dust covering the machinery. They didn't even know if the machines were still functional. Puzzled, they didn't know what to do."Mr. Wilson, we...we want to work, but just look, there are no materials or working machines. How are we going to do this?"Justin was distressed upon hearing this. He knew those machines were custom-made overseas and couldn't be easily replaced domestically. Moreover, Sunrise Corporation had strict requirements for raw materials - using subpar materials could ruin their reputation."What should we do?"Anxious, Justin didn't know how to resolve this seemingly insurmountable issue

    With everything in place, the workers quickly followed the three foreigners into the factory. They moved out all the old equipment and cleared out the scraps. Under the guidance of the foreigners, they revamped the entire factory. Once everything was ready, the foreigners began teaching them how to operate the new equipment and produce new materials.Justin had nothing to do, so he stood idly by and observed the workers secretly. As expected, with his financial incentives and technical support from the foreigners, the workers rediscovered their passion for work. Enthusiastically operating the new equipment, they would soon produce new products.However, Justin suddenly noticed a few troublemakers who didn't work as hard as the others, appearing distracted.Justin brought them out of the factory one by one. As it turned out, the idlers were Isaac and Zachary and their gang.Even when Justin asked why they weren't committed to work, they remained arrogant."I don't know how to do this k

    Now Justin had gained complete control. Not one of the dozen workers was his match.The flowing and continuous fighting scenes dazzled the onlookers. This was real skill, far more exciting to watch than those so-called martial arts masters in movies.Many applauded and cheered. Within moments, over ten burly men had been beaten to the point of being unable to stand. The iron pipes and clubs were strewn around, and the men squealed in pain, a pitiful sight.Justin sneered coldly and picked up an iron pipe. Slowly, he walked toward Zachary and the others, glaring menacingly. With a swing of the pipe, Zachary instantly soiled his pants in terror.However, they soon felt something was off. It seemed they weren't hurt. The bloody scene they imagined didn't happen. What was going on? Things didn't seem right.Isaac and the others opened their eyes in shock and fear, only to be scared witless. The iron pipe Justin held was just three centimeters from their heads, almost touching their ears.

    Seeing the troubled expressions on the workers' faces, Justin was extremely curious. He asked a worker what was going on. After being evasive initially, the worker finally explained the matter clearly under Justin's repeated urging. "Mr. Wilson! It's not that we don't want to eat. The food in the employee canteen is simply awful and expensive. A meal costs forty to fifty dollars. We ordinary workers can't afford that!" "Not only is it expensive, the portions are ridiculously small. The canteen manager, Nathaniel, is the younger brother-in-law of Zachary, whom you just beat up. Those two rascals usually make trouble and extract money from us in the factory. The food used to be quite decent in our canteen. Although we couldn't have meat with every meal, at least we had enough to eat and it tasted good. However, after those two took over, the meals have become worse and worse. We really don't want to eat in the canteen anymore. We might as well spend a little over twenty dollars to coo

    As the fat woman spoke, she was about to pour the pot of boiled vegetables directly onto the ground. In the next second, a big foot suddenly kicked her in the chest. Rebecca screamed and flew back immediately. The pot of boiled vegetables in her hands also flew out and was about to fall to the ground. In the next second, Justin reacted swiftly and grabbed the pot with one hand. Naturally, all the vegetables fell into the pot, and not a single one spilled out.Everyone was amazed that someone could act so quickly in such a crisis. What's more, they applauded Justin for standing up for them voluntarily. This time they really had a good boss, and all the workers would have good days.After being knocked down, the fat woman started screaming loudly. Hearing the commotion, the man came over with a kitchen knife."Who dares hurt my daughter-in-law? Come out, and I'll chop you up right now. Tired of living, huh? I don't even dare hit my daughter-in-law, yet you dare beat her. It seems feedi

    Upon hearing this, the couple couldn't help but open their mouths wide in shock. However, they quickly shook their heads in disbelief, indicating that this was simply impossible. Everyone knew that her brother was a talented fighter and that no less than three to five men were his match. This young man looked only about 20 years old and was thin and wiry. How could he possibly be Zachary's opponent? The workers must be lying. "Haha, don't lie to me. I won't believe your nonsense. My brother's character and skills are well known. How could a mere whelp like him defeat my brother? Impossible! I'm telling you, you fools are making trouble with this young man, and when my brother returns, none of you will escape. I won't cook today, so you can all starve. From now on, you must each pay 30 dollars more per day for meals to compensate us for mental anguish and medical expenses." These two were truly capitalists exploiting people. They were determined to take advantage of this opportunity

    Soon after ingesting it, the old man coughed and retched up a pool of black blood, gradually regaining clarity. When he lifted his gaze to see his eldest before him, he trembled in excitement, hands fumbling to caress Justin's face."My boy, you've come back! Where have you been all this time? Do you know what chaos ensued in the family during your absence?""Old master, please calm yourself. I'm not your son. Listen as I explain everything."With that, they helped the old man out of his coffin and into an armchair. The same confusion swirled in everyone's minds. Justin then removed his disguise, reverting to his original appearance, and carefully reiterated the events leading up to this moment. Though incredulous at first, the fantastic tale made sense upon reflection.The old man too accepted this was not his real firstborn, but rejoiced at his second son's return. The two siblings knelt before their father, weeping uncontrollably like three-year-olds. The old man beamed with gran

    Naturally the pretender had no knowledge of this, so he pondered briefly before replying."I believe it was the left foot.""Wrong. I wasn't actually bitten because Mother saved me in time, though she gashed her left arm in the process. You didn't know about that incident, did you?" "I'm sure the esteemed guests here remember the day my mother's arm was bleeding profusely when I was seven. Uncle, I recall you drove her to get treated at the hospital. Am I right?""Yes, yes, I remember now. The mistress did injure her arm back then, and I personally took her to the hospital. She specifically instructed me not to inform anyone else, to avoid worry. There's no mistake, he is the young master, the true heir.""Hmph, you think such hearsay can prove I'm fake? I could just as well say you bribed the uncle to deceive everyone. Nobody else witnessed that old incident anyway, so you can make up whatever story you want.""Still unconvinced? Then I'll reveal one more fact known only to my clos

    "I have just the thing." Zoey fished out a USB drive containing a song sung by her elder brother. His rich, magnetic voice was as pleasing as his looks, outclassing many professional singers. "System, can you modify my voice? Use his as a template and get to 80% similarity.""Master can purchase the Voice Mimicry skill for 100,000 points. With it, you can imitate anyone's voice to 99% accuracy."Justin was intrigued, though the skill's price gave him pause. But with his endless fortune of points, the cost was trivial.After purchasing, vocal techniques instantly filled his mind. He softly hummed along to the recording, astonishing the siblings. With just a line, his cadence and tone perfectly matched their brother's. Between looks and voice, even the real deal before them wouldn't be distinguishable from this imitation."Well, can I pass?""More than pass! Let me get you one of brother's outfits too, then we can head for the estate and expose that fraud!"Now garbed in Miles' clothi

    Justin paid no mind to his friends' envious gazes as he followed the woman inside and took a seat. She sashayed over, hips swaying, and poured him a cup of tea. Her alluring figure and bewitching aura stirred desires within Justin. He couldn't help it - she was too tempting. Though Justin had his share of women, they were innocent girls, no match for the mature allure of this femme fatale. If not for knowing she spelled trouble, he would have made her part of his harem. A beauty like her didn't deserve to be wasted on others.While he was lost in thought, the woman slinked back over with a folder in hand. She took out some photos and passed them to Justin.Seeing the man in the photos, Justin shot up in shock, hands trembling. He quickly calmed himself to avoid losing face. But his astonishment was understandable.The man looked identical to him, like two peas in a pod - just more mature with a refined, gentlemanly bearing. Even in the simple photos, he exuded a carefree elegance.

    Rose's gaze never left Justin. As she watched, his image seemed to overlay and merge with that of a man in his thirties from her memories - her brother, who had disappeared over ten years ago. She had come to this city to search for him. But despite her efforts, there had been no trace. Finding someone who bore such an uncanny resemblance sparked new hope within her. "Go check his background thoroughly. Find out his connection to my brother. The drink is his tonight." At Rose's order, a man behind her swiftly departed. Rose then headed up to the stage and cut the deafening music. Justin's dancing slowed to a stop as all eyes turned to the elegant woman, curious what exquisite concoction she would produce tonight.Rose surveyed the array of bottles before her. She selected a bottle of Spirytus Rektyfikowany - pure grain alcohol known as "life water", the strongest vodka in the world. This she mixed with some fruit juices in casual pours before picking up the glass and descending fr

    "Oh, it's just a simple little trick, that's all. But now this is a true Blood-Sweat Horse, the finest of steeds. I've decided to keep him for myself. In a couple days at my wedding, I'll ride him down the streets in my finest wedding clothes, with camera crews from my two livestreaming companies recording everything. I want the whole country, nay, the whole world to see my spectacular wedding!""Holy hell, that's brilliant! Why didn't I think of that? Riding a legendary steed in the wedding parade - that's big face for sure! Hey, I'm taking back my decision to sell him. You just name your price, anything, and the horse is yours. Do we have a deal?""Adrian Webb, you must be dreaming. Even your toes can think well enough to know that's never going to happen. First you insult the poor beast, then when he turns into a marvel, you want to claim him? Have you no shame?"Adrian was left speechless by Justin's rebuke. In the end he had no choice but to give up.

    Adrian panicked; the money was trivial, but he dreaded the horse suddenly collapsing, shaming him badly, or throwing him off."Run properly, beast! Or I'll really whip you!" He lashed its hindquarters a few times. The horse neighed painfully but sped up again.Seeing the speed return, Adrian finally relaxed. Half the track remained. He just wanted the horse to finish the rest quickly, no more mishaps. Otherwise today would be terribly embarrassing. "Hey, this won't do! I've caught up to you, will overtake you soon! I said your horse was no good!""Nonsense, he just ate something disagreeable, needs to digest it. He'll run properly again immediately, heh, you've certainly lost today!" "I give up, even now you're still stubborn. Fine, if you insist on going on, then bet on! Just don't blame me later if you get tossed off and hurt your butt or face."Justin continued controlling his old steed to speed up. It ran faster and faster, gaining momentum ceaselessly. Its aura was like the ki

    "Good lord, you dare scam me!" Adrian was furious and kicked the short fat worker in the stomach, knocking him over."Mr. Webb, you wrong me! I really did import this Sweatblood from overseas, and had experts examine it too. They said it's extremely healthy, the most robust horse in my stable! How could it be fake, let alone injured? Don't you trust me? I've never made a mistake before, and certainly never been negligent working for you. Please don't be fooled by ill-intentioned people!""Oh? So you're saying I'm an ill-intentioned villain?" "I wouldn't dare, you're Mr. Webb's friend, I wouldn't offend you. But I must say, I've always worked in good conscience, never doing such swindling. This horse is truly healthy. If you insist it's sick, I can't do anything about it.""Seems you still don't believe me. Then let's bet on it. I'll pick a horse I deem good, we'll race your horse against mine, and the result will show if I'm speaking nonsense or not!"Justin spread his hands, looki

    Since Adam and the others rarely came to Metropolis Central, Justin wanted to show them around properly. At this time, Adrian Webb happened to rush over. Seeing the four guys, he decided to bring them out for fun.What? Why would Adrian Webb show up here? Think about it, with his personality, being cooped up at home for a month would make him mildew. He had sneaked out today after bribing his dad, and with Lucas Webb whispering into his ear, Kennedy wouldn't punish him."Hahaha, never thought I'd become friends with Adrian Webb one day. If word of this got out, I could brag about it for life!""Hahaha, the brothers flatter me. I'm friends with Justin, and you all are Justin's brothers, so naturally we're friends too. We're kindred spirits - we should hang out more in the future. Come, brothers, I'll bring you to experience something novel." With a wave of his hand, Adrian brought the four to a racecourse in the suburbs. All kinds of peerless horses could be found here, don't worry,
