Siheyuan: I am a trader in both worlds!

Chapter 494 Beijing gets all the benefits
It's no wonder that Lao Luo was so eager and lost his composure; the conditions offered by Ximen Lang were simply too good, and the level of support was just too great!
The terms were so good that Lao Luo never dreamed Ximen Lang would offer such favorable conditions. It was so good that if Lao Luo hesitated for even a second, it would be disrespectful to the money!
Furthermore, appropriately elevating Bai Ling's rank to show respect for Bai Ling and Ximen Lang is something they are happy to see and something they have been doing all along.

Therefore, it's simply impossible to refuse!
As soon as Ximen Lang mentioned that he intended to increase his donations, changing the amount from 180 million to no less than 200 million yuan per year, Lao Luo immediately grasped Ximen Lang's hand tightly.

Fearing that Ximen Lang might change his mind, they hurriedly finalized the matter.

In their eagerness, they even accidentally blurted out the word "deal," as if they were really engaged in some kind of shady power-money transaction!
How can this be done?
Isn't this nonsense?
Therefore, seeing that Bai Ling's gaze towards him was somewhat strange, Ximen Lang also looked at her with an expression that said, "I never expected you to be this kind of person."

Old Luo blushed and hurriedly tried to make amends.

"What I mean is, Ah Lang, you don't need to do this at all, because Bai Ling has always been a key person the organization is grooming. Even if you don't do this, the organization will definitely give her a lot of support and actively give her more responsibilities."

"If that's the case, then fine. I take back what I said earlier, and we'll stick with the previously agreed-upon 180 million."

"There's no need to compromise yourself just to avoid suspicion. After all, she is her, and you are you. There's no need to deliberately limit yourself because of these trivial matters, preventing you from experiencing so much sense of accomplishment. Besides, being able to raise so much money is a skill in itself. Even if your superiors knew, they would only be happy for Bai Ling and think she has outstanding work abilities. What do you think?"

Goodness, that's why you have to say it's Lao Luo (Luo Yonghao)!
With that kind of shamelessness, most people really can't handle him!

Seeing that Lao Luo was truly outrageous, with that mouth of his, he could really make the living seem dead and the dead seem alive.

A sigh.

"You really went through a lot for such a small amount of money."

Seeing that Lao Luo's face had turned liver-colored from his teasing, Ximen Lang didn't dwell on it any longer.

Instead, he left some room for Lao Luo, he said sincerely.

"While what you said earlier is true, there's one thing you're right about. There's absolutely no need for me to compromise myself for those trivial things. I'm not short of money, so why should I lose so much of my sense of accomplishment because of this?"

As they were talking, Ximen Lang magically produced a savings account with several million in deposits.

That's right. It was some time ago, after Ximen Lang gave his passbook to Director Wang, that he felt so insecure that he opened a new one.

The millions clearly written on the bankbook were earned by Ximen Lang during this period when he was extremely insecure and had been desperately trading various electronic items from the future.

Seeing this, some people will definitely ask:

"So much?! And it's only been a short time! How could he possibly earn so much?! Even if he sold 10 electronic devices a day and bought each one at a high price of 1000 yuan, he still couldn't earn this much in such a short time!"

If he only sold this much in a day, and in such a short time, Simon Lang certainly wouldn't have earned this much.

But who can blame him when Ximen Lang is so audacious?

Especially after selling for so long and so much without anyone bothering him.

Ximen Lang is having a huge sales spree!
It's just too conspicuous to drive a container to sell directly; otherwise, Simon Lang would have preferred to bring a whole train carload to sell!
He's already so extravagant, so this amount of money is naturally nothing to him.

Not only is it nothing, but the more things like this happen, the better!
"Anyway, I can't spend this money, so I might as well use it where it's really needed." "So use this money as you see fit. Just use it, don't be afraid! At worst, I'll bring back a whole trainload of electronic equipment. I don't believe you can really bankrupt me."

"That's absolutely impossible! There's a slight possibility that someone else might go bankrupt, but you? Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

A timely and perfectly timed agreement pleased Ximen Lang immensely.

With the funding in place, everything else is naturally not a problem.

This naturally includes the requirement that all expense details be made public, a step that Simon Lang highly values.

After all, it's just a matter of spending some money and hiring some people.

If there's still a problem with this, then it's truly absurd!

As for where the pilot program will actually be held...
"Personally, I don't like all the good things coming to Beijing first. After all, just because it's the capital doesn't mean we have to give it all the good things. We have to leave some for other cities, give them some opportunities, and let them share in the benefits too."

"But there's no other way. The capital is indeed our face, our calling card. If it doesn't present itself in a glamorous and impressive way, those foreign devils will look down on us even more. Besides, we're now right here in Beijing, so it's easier to carry out our work here."

"So, let's give Beijing another discount. The first batch of funds should be used primarily in Beijing and its surrounding areas to get things settled first. Then, we can expand our workforce, proceed steadily, and gradually roll out the program across the board. That's my personal suggestion. What do you think?"

Since Ximen Lang has already adopted this attitude, it's even less likely that Lao Luo and Bai Ling would refuse.

In particular, the world of Beijing needs this face right now to reverse its backward image.

Therefore, they hit it off immediately.

At Ximen Lang's suggestion, the group immediately reached a consensus.

They discussed the details of the Hope Project's implementation, and soon it was time for Qin Jingru and the others to get out of school.

Just then, He Yuzhu and the others, after working so hard for so long, finally finished preparing the white rice and pork and cabbage stew with vermicelli that Ximen Lang had requested, and sent someone to call them over.

Without further ado, just like when they came, they pressed down on the heads of Qin Jingru and Qin Huaihai, and the group returned to the bustling field.

It's simply impossible for him to talk nonsense with these hundreds of villagers in front of him.

Seeing that everyone was eagerly waiting for him to say something.

He simply dropped a sentence.

"What are you looking at? Hurry up and get started while it's still hot!"

A burst of enthusiastic cheers immediately erupted from the crowd, and Ximen Lang and Bai Ling quickly joined the crowd, enjoying the meal with their fellow villagers.
