To be honest, at his current age, there was still a chance to grow taller.
As long as one persisted in exercising and maintained a good routine, growing another one or two centimeters was quite normal.
But since obtaining the tycoon system,
exercise wasn't actually an issue, and he burned a lot of calories every night.
Well, it was just a pity that most of this exercise was horizontal movement.
It didn't seem to help much with growing taller.
Moreover, because he was so keen on beating the foam every night, maintaining a regular routine was indeed a bit difficult for Jiang Cheng to achieve.
At five in the evening, Jiang Cheng woke up and saw the message sent by the Security Team.
The reason Jiang Cheng had greeted Zheng Zhigang last night was simply because he was afraid the Security Team's actions might indirectly affect K11's reputation.
According to the information found by the Security Team last night, Lin Weiwei's family's luxury goods store was mixing genuine and fake items.
Customers had previously reported that the lipsticks bought from their store had different colors and textures compared to those from the flagship stores.
But in the end, it was always explained away as different batches, and since the store was authorized, fakes were impossible.
This kind of deception was relatively easy for average customers to accept.
After all, people generally wouldn't think that a physical specialty store could also sell counterfeit goods.
But in reality, every year there are reports of luxury stores being exposed for selling fakes.
Even the LV and Gucci brands that Jiang Cheng frequently bought couldn't avoid it.
These big-name luxury stores would occasionally be exposed for passing off fakes as genuine products.
There was even news of LV being ordered by a court to refund and pay triple damages for selling fakes, which once trended on the hot search list.
Of course, this was naturally not something the headquarters wanted to see.
A major reason why specialty stores mixed genuine and fake goods was related to the store managers.
However, the issue with the three stores owned by Lin Weiwei's family was clearly not due to the staff.
According to the Security Team's online investigation, Lin Weiwei's mother would purchase a batch of high-quality counterfeits online every once in a while.
And she was very clever; the purchases were all mixed.
She didn't just buy one type.
She even specifically chose items with smaller values to counterfeit.
They were sold mixed together, so so far, they hadn't been shut down.
Furthermore, her family didn't start out in luxury goods.
Instead, they dealt in high-quality counterfeit import and export goods at a wholesale market in Guangzhou.
Back in the 2000s, China's crackdown on high-quality counterfeits of foreign brands wasn't very strong yet.
So, relying on that storefront, Lin Weiwei's family earned their first pot of gold.
Later, when the market was under strict inspection, they transferred the shop.
They began to seize the trend of selling through moments.
Private transactions directly bypassed market supervision.
They diverted the customer base to mobile phones and certain platforms for sales transactions.
It could be said that among those who did business on moments a few years ago,
most of them made money.
After all, they were the first ones to eat the crab.
Even health products would be snapped up by crowds, let alone these international brand fakes.
It could be said that Lin Weiwei's family made a fortune from this second pot of gold.
Later, after the crackdown began, they decisively retired from that business.
Using the money they earned, they opened a luxury goods collection.
And through purchasing inventory, they obtained many brand authorizations.
Among these, her family used their previous business channels in Guangzhou to obtain many sources for high-quality counterfeits.
They made a lot of money again in the process of mixing genuine and fake goods.
The behavior of Lin Weiwei's family perfectly fit a saying:
"No man gets rich without a windfall, just as no horse gets fat without midnight grass."
If the rich don't mess around, they'll be rich for a lifetime.
But if the poor don't mess around, they'll be poor for a lifetime.
The phrase 'getting rich through hard work' has always been a lie.
Most first pots of gold are dirty.
With a few exceptions, of course.
Over the past decade or so, her family had hit three consecutive trends.
And each time, they withdrew immediately upon receiving the first word of trouble.
So for over ten years, they had never run into trouble.
For ordinary people, this was indeed quite impressive.
It was just a pity they raised Lin Weiwei, a failed creation.
And they had also encountered a national-level security force like the Security Team.
In just a few hours, their transaction records from the past few years were completely exposed.
Selling fakes is an issue that can be big or small.
The Security Team arranged for several groups of personnel and professional counterfeit hunters to enter the store and precisely purchase the fake items currently on sale.
These people even recorded videos of the entire process, from purchase to unboxing for inspection to sending the items for testing.
So there was no possibility of framing or swapping items.
At this time, Lin Weiwei was still unaware of the massive fines and prison time her family was facing.
She was walking down from the female dormitory, fully dressed up.
Lin Weiwei walked out quickly in high heels, her face still carrying lingering hostility, while she opened the school forum.
Seeing that the forum was still garbled, Lin Weiwei immediately cursed Si Nian and Si Qing under her breath: "Those two sluts, just you wait..."
While cursing, she walked too fast and didn't notice what was ahead, her shoulder colliding hard with someone.
Lin Weiwei stumbled from the impact; after steadying herself, her temper flared, and she looked up to curse.
"Fuck! Aren't you looking where you're going?"
"You fucking bumped into me and you dare say that?" Unexpectedly, the other person's temper was even hotter than hers.
It was Chen Xiaodong, who was already frustrated and full of pent-up anger.
Being cursed at like that, his anger instantly flared up, and he glared, ready to explode.
Lin Weiwei was momentarily stunned by the shouting.
She frowned and raised her eyes to look at the other person.
With one look, her arrogance instantly withered, and she squeezed out a smile: "Oh, it's Brother Xiao Dong! I'm so sorry, I didn't see it was you."
The sudden change in attitude made Chen Xiaodong's brow furrow instantly.
After glancing at Lin Weiwei, he said with a look of impatience: "Who are you?"
"Brother Xiao Dong, did you forget? I'm Lin Weiwei," she hurriedly explained. "When I went to Chengdu before, Linna specifically invited you out. We even went to a bar together for drinks. You even recommended a very hard-to-get wine to us back then, remember?"
"Linna..." Hearing that name, Chen Xiaodong's face darkened suddenly, and his eyes instantly turned cold.
Huang Mao and the others had sent him a recent video of Linna.
Whenever she ran out of the house, she would start taking off her clothes in the middle of the street.
One could only imagine what she had endured during her time in the detention center.
Thinking of this, Chen Xiaodong also felt a strange, illusory pain in his buttocks.
