Tao Xuefeng

Tao Xuefeng is a secretive billionaire and the founder/leader of Yuxi. He leads the nebulous Yuxi Society for Social Harmony with an estimated net worth of around 20 billion. His holdings are so far unknown, but he is believed to be a large stakeholder in Ninghui's mining corporations, a variety of Hydari gambling operations, cryptocurrency exchange Hinance, and Shirvan Resource Group. He is furthermore involved in various crimes through the Yuxi Triangle. Tao Xuefeng has never appeared in public, choosing instead to hold interviews in private and release statements through secure cryptographic channels.

Tao Xuefeng was born into a peasant family around Santai-Tanzai. He joined the army at 18 and fought in the bloody Hydari Civil War. After the war ended he rose through the ranks of the Armed Forces and eventually became a brigadier general. He was laid off from the army in the 80s and was forced to resort to gang violence in Yuxi. Through skillful political maneuver his Society eventually took over the various tunnels making up the emerging city. He merged Yuxi's banks and began developing a large pharmaceutical industry around the city.

Tao Xuefeng is rumored to have a very brash "ugly" face with an uneven head and rotting teeth. He is reported to be particularly violent towards his lessers. As one journalist put it "Yuxi is not a safe place for the light hearted".
