As the heir to the Mo family, Mo Bei was keenly aware of his position and what he had to do.
If the Mo family wanted to continue occupying its spot in the Tongshan mining industry, they had to ensure operations went on smoothly.
Their family had survived off mining for so many generations that its business model was already fixed in their hearts.
They had to keep bleeding the miners to force down labor costs. After all, it might be difficult to find a genius, but there was an abundant supply of common laborers.

Furthermore, Jiang Ning had a wild mine on his side now, so Mo Bei was determined to get it! "Mr Mo, how are we going to take down Lin Group?" asked Cheng Fan with a glint of joy flashing across his eyes.
"It doesn't matter whether they collapse or not, all we need to do is to take hold of what they have," said Mo Bei calmly. He seemed as though Jiang Ning and everyone's fate was already in his grasp. "Okay!" said Cheng Fan as he nodded. Then he left to make arrangements.
He couldn't wait to see Jiang Ning kneeling before him and begging for mercy! When it becunsustainable for Lin Group to stay in Xishan and they had to leave pathetically, he would be around to witness it! Mo Bei walked over to the French windows and looked at the city at his feet.
He loved the sensation of seeing everything in miniature as he towered from above.
"Although the Mo family is considered one of the top families in the northwest district, it isn't enough," muttered Mo Bei to himself. "I want the Mo family to be so formidable that even the supremely powerful families of the north treat us with respect!" He never once thought highly of those powerful northern families. They merely propelled themselves into success by making informed reactions to the situation and didn't have any real resources or powers to fall back on.
Once that opportunity dried up, they would fall plunge into an abyss! So he couldn't let the Mo family follow in their footsteps.
Especially when the Mo family controlled two well-concealed wild mines. Each year they mined only a small number of ores from them. Search the (Find) website on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
But despite the tiny amount they mined, it was enough for the Mo family to trade for more useful things from overseas.
"If the Mo family controlled one more wild mine, our future would be more secure." A smile emerged on Mo Bei's face as though he already had it in his grip.
Once the key industry stakeholders from the nearby cities surrounded Xishan and forced Lin Group to back down, Lin Group wouldn't be able to continue in the trade.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWould Jiang Ning have the right to be arrogant then? They would have no choice but to leave Xishan and the northwest district with their tails between their legs! "Then when everyone carves up the Xishan mining zones, all I'll take is the eighth mining zone. Hahahaha!" Mo Bei was already a little smug as everything was in his control.
Very soon, the families that operated mines in cities close to Xishan cto a common understanding. The Mo family would take the lead while they ΝΟ encircled and annihilated Lin Group together! No one wanted the rules to be broken, especially now that their miners had already started demanding for the sremuneration as the Lin Group workers.
You had to be kidding.
Just increasing unit prices and improving staff meals increased production costs vastly, nevermind the whole thing about putting up 30% of their profit for employee benefits. This increase in business costs was something that these capitalists were unwilling to accept. Mo Bei sat in front of his computer with the heads of each of the other families showing on its screen.
"I'm sure everyone is well aware of the situation. Xishan has broken the rules."
Mo Bei said calmly, "I ran the numbers. If we take Lin Group's lead, our costs will rise by 30%. I'm sure I don't have to go into detail about the margins after we put up 30% of our profits as employee perks. All of us are in the business of mining. But no one has ever added laborers into the equation. They aren't shareholders or even full-temployees, so they don't have a right to demand as much."
