"Did I hear it was you who fleshed out my precise portrait?"

When the man saw Chen Yu, he instinctively asked this question.

Chen Yu didn't say much, only nodding his head.

"I really didn't expect to be taken down by a youngster like you! When I committed that case ten years ago, nobody could trace me at all, I thought this time would be perfect, just the same..."

Before he could finish his sentence, the two officials beside him nudged his shoulder.

"Enough with the nonsense, get inside!"

An odd smirk flashed across the suspect's face, and as he passed by Chen Yu, he even shot him a malicious glance.

Chen Yu didn't linger there for long, exchanging a few pleasantries with Zhou Shengtao before he hurried off to Shuiyue Number One.

It had been quite a long time since he had been home.

But when he returned, he found the villa's front gate tightly shut, and the business car he had just purchased was nowhere to be seen.

After entering, he saw a photo and a note left on the counter next to the door.

"Honey, Tuan Tuan is on holiday, and we're all going out to relax without you."

Chen Yu immediately felt depressed, the photo featured everyone in his family but him.

He rubbed his forehead subconsciously and suddenly felt a wave of sleepiness washing over him. He yawned, then went straight to his bedroom and fell asleep.

It was not until noon the next day that Chen Yu woke up groggily, only then he noticed there were over a dozen missed calls on his phone.

Seeing that they were from Chu Hong, he quickly called back, got dressed at the same time, and drove straight to the shopping mall.

The mall's first floor was now incredibly bustling, with the customer flow being more than five times busier than even its best days before.

Customers from the city, outsiders, and even those who came from abroad were constantly coming and going.

The only issue was that the construction opposite the building and on its rooftop meant that there were some limitations, preventing the customer flow from reaching full capacity.

I believe that once the construction is finished, this place will become the busiest mall in Suzhou City, if not the whole world.

When he arrived at the mall, he found all the stations operating smoothly, Wang Qingshan and his two colleagues even had two apprentices each.

These kids, having grown up in the mountains, had a rather straightforward character, and at their age, they hadn't yet been molded by the outdated thinking of their villages, showing much promise for growth.

The people brought back yesterday had already been put to work today.

When Chu Hong saw Chen Yu arrive, she approached him in a hurry.

"Brother Yu, I really didn't want to bother you, but there are so many people, and our dormitories simply can't accommodate them all; we even had to clear out a room for a few boys last night!"

Chen Yu slapped his forehead, realizing he had forgotten about this.

In the beginning, the dorms were rented, but when he bought the shops, he also purchased those apartments.

Though he acquired a few extra at the time for unexpected needs, with the sudden influx of so many people, those dorms now seemed rather cramped.

In the future, this mall might hire a huge number of employees, and by then, more employee housing would be necessary.

"Don't worry about this, I'll arrange it. Tell them to focus on their work, and I'll take care of their living necessities as well!"

Chu Hong nodded her head, then somewhat sheepishly pulled out a letter from her pocket.

```

It was a letter of guarantee, and nearly everyone had signed it and even pressed their fingerprints on it.

However, the handwriting at the beginning was still relatively delicate, but as it went on, the signatures started to stray, and some even resorted to using Pinyin instead.

"Brother Yu, it's mainly because the people in our village are too poor that such situations arise, making you the butt of the joke. We've all already agreed that the money you spent on them before will be deducted from their wages!"

Chen Yu felt somewhat helpless, "It's just over three hundred thousand, which is small change for me. Besides, they have traveled miles to work here; I should give them some bonus and a settling-in allowance, right? Try to reassure them, so they don't feel too much psychological burden."

After giving a few instructions, Chen Yu headed straight to the residential area behind the original shop.

This residential area was built corresponding to the surrounding commercial district, so there were specifically two buildings constructed to apartment standards.

Only, when the developer was building them, they were short on funds and sold the property rights ahead of time, which made the ownership of these two apartment buildings extremely complex.

Chen Yu contacted the property owners through the property management and soon gathered most of the owners together.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I called you here today with no other intention but to buy the property rights of the apartments in your hands to use as my employees' dormitory. I hope you can understand," he said earnestly.

Most of the people present scoffed at his sincerity.

"You're a bit too brash, kid. Do you know how much these two apartment buildings are worth now?"

"To use as employee dormitories, do you think you're some kind of tycoon? Now which company's employee dormitories aren't rented?"

"Young Chen, I support you! I still want to eat at your place in the future! But this is business after all, you have to pay me the market rate."

"No problem, Young Chen. If others don't want to sell, I will! I have a total of sixteen apartments in my hands, just give the word, and I'll turn them all over to you."

...

This polarization of opinions left Chen Yu somewhat at a loss.

If it were a small-scale transaction, that would be fine, but such a large-scale transaction would definitely involve many messy issues.

Even the price might not be unified!

As he was feeling frustrated, an elderly lady bustled in.

"I'm really sorry for being late. I heard someone wants to buy our apartments, is that true?"

As soon as this person arrived, everyone present quieted down.

"Auntie Li?"

Chen Yu was stunned, for when he first opened his shop here, Auntie Li had given him considerable help, renting him both the shop and the apartment at the market's lowest price.

Later, when he bought the place, Auntie Li even gave him a substantial discount.

Chen Yu hurriedly stepped forward to help Auntie Li sit down.

"Auntie Li, what brings you here? Didn't you sell all your apartments to me already?"

No sooner had he spoken than all eyes in the room converged on Chen Yu, as though mocking his ignorance.

"Young man, what are you talking about? The one with the most property rights in this area is Auntie Li."

"Just in these two apartment buildings, she owns more than half of them!"
