Acai's Sky

Chapter 223 Change of Face

After Ah Cai and everyone else arrived in HK by ferry, they finally set foot on land.

She breathed a sigh of relief: "Huh~"

"Finally I got off the boat. That feeling of floating all the time was so uncomfortable!"

Ah Cai, carrying an embroidered bucket bag with two adorable puppies in it, followed Ah Da out of the Tsim Sha Tsui Pier.

Along the way, Ah Cai kept teasing the two pups in the embroidered bucket bag and asked softly, "Puppies aren't allowed on planes anymore. How did it feel to float here with you?"

Ah Er carried the suitcase and carefully protected Ah Cai as they boarded a rickshaw. He told the driver, "The Peninsula Hotel."

The Peninsula Hotel on Salisbury Road in Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, is renowned for its elegant architecture. The hotel blends European and Chinese elements, creating a unique aesthetic.

Ah Cai looked up at the Peninsula Hotel in front of her, her eyes full of curiosity and novelty. After all, she had been to the Peninsula Hotel a hundred years later, so she was particularly excited about everything here.

She murmured to herself, "Let me see what you looked like a hundred years ago. I'm really looking forward to it."

A large room is available, including deluxe rooms and suites.

Walking into the room, you will be amazed by the luxurious decoration.

The living room is spacious and bright, furnished with comfortable sofas and coffee tables, and exquisite works of art hang on the walls.

In the bedroom, the soft big bed is decorated warmly and comfortably, and outside the window is a charming city view.

The bathroom features luxurious marble and gold details and is equipped with a spacious bathtub and a separate shower.

The room also has a private bar and entertainment facilities for guests to enjoy.

"It was so luxurious a hundred years ago. I want to open a hotel. It's really great..."

Ah Da found Ah Cai's unusual excitement a bit strange, but he still agreed with him and said, "Sure, let's open a hotel too! We already have the blueprints, so why not build a fairytale hotel?"

A Cai nodded, then walked to the window and stared quietly at the scenery outside, as if thinking about something.

Tong Shiqi came over, handed Ah Cai a glass of warm water, and said, "It's a good time to come here. It's a golden age of discovery."

Tong Jiawu continued, "Yes, not to mention the capitalists in the world, the number of wealthy people fleeing the country alone is too numerous to count."

Tong Shishan looked at the two of them with a smile and added, "Without capital investment, how could this place possibly prosper? And because of the war, there are so many refugees who have fled here."

After listening to their conversation, Ah Cai suddenly had an idea and proposed: "Let's enclose the land, build more small high-rise buildings, and collect rent."

Her eyes sparkled with excitement, as if she saw a beautiful vision of the future.

Ah San came over and said with a smile, "Let me change into a foreigner. It's easier to get things done here with a foreigner."

He seemed very satisfied with his proposal, believing that it would enable him to better integrate into local society and gain access to more resources and opportunities.

A Cai nodded thoughtfully. Her tone was firm and decisive, and it was obvious that she had considered all possible situations.

"Ada, Aer, Asan, you all need to change your appearance. After all, you still need to expand overseas, and looking like a foreigner will help you blend into their circle."

After hearing this, Ada and the others took action without any hesitation.

Their facial muscles gradually liquefied, their original faces gradually blurred, and then a completely new face was reshaped.

When they opened their eyes again, they had become authentic Western white people.

Ah Cai looked at the three new faces before her and felt a surge of pride. She was amazed by their abilities and filled with confidence for the future.

She believes that with their wisdom and strength, they will be able to achieve their goals and create their own brilliant achievements.

After circling around the three transformed people for a few times, Tong Shiqi suddenly said, "I'm going to Hawaii and want to change into a Western woman! After all, discrimination against Chinese people there is very serious."

Tong Shishan nodded in agreement. "It's not just foreigners. Aren't most of those Bananas who left earlier unaware of their ancestors? It would be more convenient for you to change to a Western face."

As she spoke, Tong Shiqi's face began to liquefy and blur, reshaping the face of a Western white woman.

Ah Cai couldn't help but exclaimed when she saw it: "Wow, why did you think of using this face? Aren't you afraid of being mistaken for Audrey Hepburn's twin?"

Tong Shiqi explained with a smile: "With her reputation as a pillar of support, things will go more smoothly for me in the future. Others will give me the green light for everything because of Hepburn's reputation, and there will be no problems."

Ah Cai couldn't help but give her a thumbs up and praised her, "She's so beautiful, she has the face of an angel!"

The dog Feiyue licked its face excitedly and wagged its tail around Tong Shiqi, but Xiaoxiao Tuantuan slapped it away and then happily circled around Tong Shiqi.

Ah Da walked towards Ah Cai with satisfaction, "I'll go help you with your identity application now. We still need to buy land to build a factory and apartment building..."

Ah Er thought for a moment, "What do we process? Instant food, chocolate, beverages, alcohol, down jackets, duvets, vehicles?"

Ah Cai sat on the sofa, staring at the ceiling with a confused look in her eyes, muttering to herself, "The country has been at war for a hundred years and has suffered plunder. Now we really lack everything!"

She sighed and continued, "But it doesn't matter. The factory can be built slowly. It will get better and better step by step!"

Acai suddenly remembered something and took out a thick book from his backpack, which contained a lot of useful information.

She flipped open the book and found the part about freight ships, then said to Ada, "We definitely need freight ships. Go and find out how to get a license for a passenger and cargo ship. As for cargo ships, we can just ask the Mohists to help us build a few dozen 10,000-ton ships to use first." Ada remembered all this in her mind and prepared to deal with it later.

At this moment, Ah Da thought of a question: "Are the four largest shipping companies coming to Hong Kong soon?"

Tong Shishan nodded, handed him a book containing the biography of a shipping tycoon, and explained, "They almost all made their fortunes during the founding war. The country needed a lot of supplies at the time, and they took advantage of the price difference, even helping the rice army transport goods, thus making huge profits."

After hearing this, Ah Cai couldn't help but frown and said with a pursed mouth: "But we can't be like them. Before the war, it is most important to build the factory and accumulate more supplies."

Ah Er nodded in agreement and continued, "Then let's set off quickly, fence off the land, and buy more food and ship it over so that we can meet the demand."

After saying that, Er and his group began to pack their luggage and prepare to embark on a new journey.
