Chapter 260 The Hidden Secrets of Longteng Jiayuan
Su Yang glared at Little Deeny. “You’re lying!”
Little Deeny quickly retorted, “No I’m not! If you don’t believe me, have a look at this!” As she said that, Little Deeny brought up a video to show Su Yang other men practicing yoga, all of which were topless, showing their muscles while performing difficult poses.
Su Yang slowly slipped his hand to his abs and touched it as he said dejectedly, “Don’t pull up those useless videos! Can you hurry up with the computer? I can’t hold on much longer!”
Little Deeny pursed her lips, clearly expressing her anger at Su Yang for not listening to her opinion and taking off his top.
However, she wasn’t angry anymore. Instead, her eyes shone as she gestured to a picture frame with her hand and mouthed, “Click!”
Suddenly, a photo appeared in her hand...
Little Deeny smiled and put the photo in her shirt to hide it and said, “Okay, okay. Right away, right away.” Su Yang looked at this little monster nervously, feeling that she had been deliberately stalling for a few minutes. His muscles were sore and he was sweating bullets.
With that, Su Yang continued his yoga poses while he waited for her to see if there was any data in the computer.
However, he seemed to hear that there was a clicking sound around it. It seemed like she was taking pictures of him...
Finally, Little Deeny turned to Su Yang after ten minutes and said, “Master, I’ve scanned all the files in this computer, and I didn’t find any valuable information.”
Hearing this, Su Yang immediately stood up and moved his already sore body before he asked, “Is that so? Nothing of value, eh?”
Little Deeny turned around. “Yes, this computer barely has any information stored on it. But...”
Su Yang asked, “But what?”
Little Deeny replied, “The computer is logged into iCloud and can share information with the connected iPhones and iPads. However, it doesn’t have a password so the sharing feature is suspended.
Su Yang asked, “Can we start sharing then?”
Deeny replied, “Yes, but you’ll need the password.”
‘Password?’ Su Yang brought out the vellum key. “Here, try this.”
Little Deeny had a puzzled face. She had been a shut-in recently, using all her memory and cores on the research and development of artificial intelligence. She paid no heed to the outside world at all so she didn’t tag along with Su Yang when he experimented with his items one he got them.
Su Yang didn’t explain at all and let her open the iCloud login page. Then, he put the vellum key on the keyboard and its front became longer as it slowly tapped on the keyboard several times before pressing the (Enter) key. Almost immediately, they were logged into iCloud.
Little Deeny was stunned and looked at Su Yang Su Yang said proudly, “Pretty cool, right?” Little Deeny nodded her head vigorously. Then, she said, “Master, it’ll be much more convenient when I hack some servers with this item in possession.”
Su Yang was surprised. “You hacked a server?”
Little Deeny stuck out her tongue and replied, “No. I’m just borrowing someone’s computing power when they’re not using it. After all, artificial intelligence training requires a lot of processing power.”
Su Yang was speechless.
‘This little one seems to have really unlocked something amazing. Letting her continue her research probably won’t mess up the world, right?’ Su Yang looked at the cute girl in front of him with suspicion. ‘How is it possible that it won’t destroy the world?’ Little Deeny looked at Su Yang pleadingly.
After thinking for a moment, Su Yang decided not to worry unnecessarily. He touched Little Deeny’s head and said, “In the future, you have to get permission from others before using their idle computing power.”
Little Deeny nodded her head. “Uh-huh!”
Her eyes darted back to the vellum key in Su Yang’s hand.
Su Yang handed it to her and said, “You can give it a try. However, the item has to be in contact with whatever you’re trying to unlock to function. If you’re thinking of using it remotely, it won’t work.”
Little Deeny took the key and thoughtfully said, “If it doesn’t work, I’ll give it back to you.”
Then she turned on iCloud sync and synced the photos, e-mails, contacts, calendars, reminders, memos, and the information on the cloud drives...
After the sync, Little Deeny began looking for anything of value again and this time, she managed to get the results quickly due to the small amount of data available. “Master! There really is something wrong!”
Su Yang was standing by the side still doing yoga poses. When he heard her, he leaned in. “What’s the problem?”
Deeny opened an excel file and memo as she said to Su Yang, “Master, look. This is the ledger and diary.”
‘A ledger and diary?’
Su Yang was surprised so he leaned closer to check.
It turned out that it really was an account book and a diary! It was all related to Longteng Jiayuan! That diary wasn’t updated every day and details were occasionally written down. In a nutshell, Chen Ye knew that the owner of Longteng Jiayuan had connections so he started working with him.
Through his connections in Shanghai, he got the land at Longteng Jiayuan at a low price.
After that, the owner of Longteng Jiayuan found connections and borrowed over a billion dollars from the bank to build out all the villas there!
However, because Longteng Jiayuan was so remote, the rich people in Shanghai didn’t want to travel so far to buy a villa so they couldn’t sell any of the houses at first.
At that time, the owner of Longteng Jiayuan proposed to turn it into an underground black market, where all kinds of illegal activities would be carried out.
At first, Chen Ye was against it. However, he couldn’t go against the boss of Longteng Jiayuan, and he also invested in the project so he finally agreed.
This was how the black market was developed by the owner of Longteng Jiayuan while being assisted by Young Master Chen. Along with the black market, the houses in Longteng Jiayuan began selling like hotcakes, one building at a time.
The black market revenue recorded in the books alone was worth tens of millions per month. This was only from businesses conducted with acquaintances of Longteng Jiayuan or people introduced by them.
If not for this reason, the scale would be much larger.
After reading the shocking diary and account book, Su Yang’s fist clenched tighter and tighter. The boss of Longteng Jiayuan is simply a scum!’
Meanwhile, Scarface and the chipped-ear guy were discovered during the security patrol at 12pm.
The head of security, who had badass muscles like Dwayne Johnson rushed to Chen Ye’s villa after receiving the news.
As he commanded people to wake up Scarface and the chipped-ear guy, he looked around Chen Ye’s villa with a frown on his face. He discovered that the study and master bedroom on the second floor of the villa had all been emptied!
Coming down from the second floor of the villa, Scarface and the other guy awakened. The head of security asked, “What the hell is going on?”
Scarface and the chipped-ear guy looked at each other and said, “It seems like we’ve been knocked unconscious the moment we entered the house. We were attacked.”
The head of security cracked his knuckles. “Do I look like I need you to tell me what happened to you?! Anyone would be able to tell you’ve been attacked if you look like that! Do you remember the face of the man?!”
Scarface and the chipped-ear guy tried to recall details, but shook their heads.
The head of security grunted heavily and instructed the security guard next to him. “Check the surveillance cameras. Also, get Mr. Jia to come here.”
That security guard replied hesitantly, “But, Mr. Jia... It’s so late”
The security supervisor waved his hand. “Give him as much money as he asks for.” The security guard relented, “Yes, sir.” Soon, the surveillance check was finished. All the cameras in Longteng Jiayuan hadn’t captured anything of value, and no one had walked by. The security supervisor frowned and rubbed his bald head, his face all puzzled. ‘If there was nobody on the footage, why is everything gone?!’
Half an hour later, the security guard brought Mr. Jia to the villa.
Upon seeing Mr. Jia, the head of security stood up in a hurry. “Mr. Jia, I’m really sorry to call you in the middle of the night.”
Mr. Jia smiled and extended his hand. “It’s fine, as long as we’re in business, I’m on your
side.”
Saying that, he requested, “Can you allow me to look at the scene first?”
The head of security extended his hand. “Of course, please go ahead.”
Ten minutes later, Mr. Jia returned to the villa lobby with a frown on his face. He said to Scarface and the chipped-ear guy, “You two turn your backs to each other and I’ll ask you questions.”
When Scarface and the chipped-ear guy had their backs to each other, Mr. Jia said, “Raise your left hand if you agree with me, and your right hand if it’s the other way around.”
The two men nodded.
It turned out that Mr. Jia hadn’t asked the question they agreed to at all. “What was the last image that you remember?”
The two men flinched at the question. The next thing they saw was Mr. Jia handing each of them a pen as he said, “Write it down.”
