The rapid success of Quick Beauty made Li Fatso feel both pain and joy, keeping him busy from morning till night, and he had even lost a few pounds! This was more effective than any weight loss pill. Of course, Ye Chenfeng had long promised to give him 20% of the profits from Quick Beauty sales. So, the more successful Quick Beauty became, the more he would earn, wouldn't he?
Now, Li Fatso genuinely regarded Ye Chenfeng as his boss. Every time he saw Ye Chenfeng, he would be all over him, eager to please. As soon as he saw Ye Chenfeng, a chilling smile appeared on his chubby face, and he said, "Boss, should we increase production? Then expand to other cities in China? We could even export it abroad, making Quick Beauty a global brand."
Li Fatso grew more and more excited the more he thought about it. Although he only had 20% of the profits from Quick Beauty sales, if it became a global brand, the benefits from that 20% would be unimaginable.
Ye Chenfeng shook his head and said, "We need to take things one step at a time. Being too hasty will only backfire."
If they increased production and opened branches all over China, the quality of Quick Beauty would inevitably decline. Ye Chenfeng didn't have the time to oversee the quality control, and besides, he only wanted to use Quick Beauty to make his first fortune. In the future, he planned to venture into other, more manageable business projects.
For now, Quick Beauty only needed to supply the Tianhai market and gradually expand to nearby cities. As for whether it would go international in the future, Ye Chenfeng hadn't given it much thought.
Seeing that Ye Chenfeng had spoken, Li Fatso had to suppress his hopes for the time being. He felt that Ye Chenfeng's words made sense; after all, haste makes waste!
With the production and sales of Quick Beauty stabilized, Ye Chenfeng shifted his focus to the Dragon Tooth Gang.
The current members of the Dragon Tooth Gang were a disorganized bunch, so they needed rigorous training to regain their strength. Otherwise, they would eventually be swallowed up by other gangs in Tianhai.
Ye Chenfeng found the name "Dragon Tooth Gang" increasingly uncomfortable, so he officially renamed it the Victory Over Heaven Gang, implying that they could overcome even the heavens. If they could do that, what could possibly stand in their way?
In the meantime, Fang Nanxiang had finished handling the Zhao family's affairs and was now officially following Ye Chenfeng.
Monkey was also aware of the changes in the Dragon Tooth Gang, now called the Victory Over Heaven Gang. He volunteered to join the training, and Ye Chenfeng didn't object. Monkey's current strength was pitiful, and joining the training would only benefit him.
Ye Chenfeng had Qiu Dong, who was temporarily in charge of the Dragon Tooth Gang, buy a training ground in the outskirts of Tianhai. The members of the Victory Over Heaven Gang would need to undergo long-term training.
The days ahead were a nightmare for the members of the Victory Over Heaven Gang. They had been lazy in the Dragon Tooth Gang, and Fang Nanxiang's strict training, based on special forces standards, made them groan and moan every day. Some even broke bones during the training!
Fang Nanxiang finally found his old passion. He loved being an instructor, and although he knew he was training a bunch of thugs, turning them into experts gave him a great sense of achievement.
Ye Chenfeng would visit the training ground every day. One day, as he stepped into the training ground, he saw that all the members of the Victory Over Heaven Gang were rebelling, refusing to continue the training. Of course, Monkey was the exception; he had become much stronger after a few days of training.
"Is this even training? It's like living in hell! We won't do it, we won't do it."
"Even hell would be better than this! We'll be trained to death at this rate."
...
The members of the Victory Over Heaven Gang were muttering among themselves, their words filled with dissatisfaction and anger.
However, when they saw Ye Chenfeng enter the training ground, they all fell silent. They had witnessed his incredible skills that night and didn't dare to act rashly in front of him.
"Mr. Ye, they..."
Fang Nanxiang wanted to report what was happening, but Ye Chenfeng waved him off. Looking at the members of the Victory Over Heaven Gang, who dared not speak up, he asked, "Do you know why I renamed the Dragon Tooth Gang to the Victory Over Heaven Gang?"
Under Ye Chenfeng's piercing gaze, the members of the Victory Over Heaven Gang all lowered their heads, none daring to meet his eyes.
Seeing no one answer, Ye Chenfeng continued in a loud voice, "The Dragon Tooth Gang was at best a third-rate gang. The name 'Victory Over Heaven' means overcoming the heavens. If we can overcome the heavens, who do we have to fear? The Victory Over Heaven Gang doesn't need weaklings or cowards. Can't you handle this level of training?"
Ye Chenfeng's powerful voice reached everyone's ears, and he continued, "If any of you can't handle the training, you can voluntarily leave the Victory Over Heaven Gang. I, Ye Chenfeng, promise that I won't make things difficult for those who choose to leave."
"However, think carefully. This is a world of the strong preying on the weak, especially for those of you who are in the underworld. If you don't have strength, you'll only be trampled on. If you want to live like a human, you need strength. If you want to live like a dog, I can't stop you."
"Let me ask you one last question: Do you want to live like a human, or like a dog?" Ye Chenfeng suddenly raised his voice. These people had spent a long time in the Dragon Tooth Gang, a third-rate gang, and their dignity and self-respect had been eroded. Ye Chenfeng's goal was to awaken the long-dormant passion in their hearts.
The members of the Victory Over Heaven Gang looked at each other, and then they all shouted in unison, "We want to live like humans, we want to live like humans..."
For a moment, their excited and high-pitched voices echoed through the air. Ye Chenfeng's words had ignited their energy. At that moment, if Ye Chenfeng had ordered them to go out and kill on the streets, they probably would have done it without hesitation!
Not just the members of the Victory Over Heaven Gang, even Fang Nanxiang, standing beside Ye Chenfeng, felt a surge of excitement. He could already envision the future, with Ye Chenfeng leading the Victory Over Heaven Gang to greatness. This was the life he wanted, the life of a man. He believed he would never regret choosing to follow Ye Chenfeng.
