The resort's golf course, featuring a trio of Zhou Hong, Wan Sai, and Anu.

Although the Silver Cotton Resort Golf Course is not a standard 12-hole course, the slope of the greens and the transformation of the winding streams make it an excellent natural choice for a golf course.

Silver Cotton Resort only opened this year, and it was Anu's first time on a golf course. Like a country bumpkin visiting the Grand View Garden, it took her a long time to barely understand the rules, and her golfing skills were even worse. She was so embarrassed by the number of penalty strokes she received.

Seeing Zhou Hong's effortless demeanor, Anu felt somewhat helpless.

Little did they know, Zhou Hong was watching the "Golf Beginner" skill gradually disappear from the skill bar.

What good is it to play golf fancy?

It turns out that there's a limit to the number of skills. I was finding it interesting to activate "Golf Introductory" when I discovered that there's a limit to the number of skills you can have.

Similar to the number of "public buses" and "remote residential areas", the maximum number of skills that can be held at the "clerk" stage is 8.

However, the skills available through the local language pack and physical enlightenment activation systems are not included.

The fact that the local language pack cannot be upgraded and that Physical Enlightenment is the only skill with an experience point health bar shows how special the two are.

Driving skills, firearms skills, and detective skills are already three skills.

Learning golf as an introduction isn't very meaningful, but at least you can forget about that skill.

Moreover, apart from physical development and the local language pack, all other skills can be forgotten.

It seems that physical enlightenment truly improves one's physical fitness irreversibly, while other skills are more like cheat codes or auxiliary abilities.

Indeed, take golf for example. I had never played it before, but after understanding the rules, I quickly mastered many skills by relying on my physical advantages. I didn't need any "golf enlightenment" to play it very well.

"Let's not fight anymore. I'm too far behind. It'll just become a show for you and Brother Wan to watch my clumsy performance..." Officer Anu walked over sheepishly.

Wan Sai's skills are decent, and he has some familiar female caddies here.

For the Silver Cotton Tree Resort, the significance of beautiful caddies is self-evident.

Just then, Wan Sai received a phone call and immediately rushed over with a look of delight: "Chairman Hong, your funds have arrived!"

Unbeknownst to them, Wan Sai began to address Zhou Hong as "Chairman Hong," and Zhou Hong's original identity as a prosecutor from Xiangguo, who had come on official business, became less important.

Laos's power structure is highly efficient when it gets things done. Peace Love Charity Service Company was registered and obtained a foreign exchange account in just one day.

As soon as Zhou Hong received the foreign exchange account, he asked Citibank's private banking team to transfer the funds, and two days later, the funds were deposited into his account.

Of course, once the US dollars are deposited into the account, they are settled at the national bank and ultimately enter the company's account in Lao Kip.

$100 million is roughly 100 billion kip.

"103 billion kip!" Wan Sai's face beamed with joy.

Even though the funds hadn't arrived in my account, I still felt a little uneasy.

"Then, can we celebrate?" Zhou Hong said with a smile.

"We must celebrate! It's my treat today!" Wan Sai clenched his fist, but then looked at Zhou Hong sheepishly: "Chairman Hong, you see..." Yes, Chairman Hong was giving money to charity, so it was like he was being taken advantage of. It was a bit unfair of him to be so happy.

Closer to Zhou Hong, Wan Sai whispered, "Director Xi Ming said that if you need any help, just say so, and she will definitely help you if she can."

Yes, donating $100 million to charity without asking for anything in return?

It's impossible no matter how you look at it.

Wan Sai lowered his voice even further: "Director Xi Ming still has a few old friends and relatives in Vientiane. Actually, Director Xi Ming herself doesn't want to go back to Vientiane. She has been here for a long time and has developed feelings for it. She also feels that Vientiane is a place of sadness because she lost several of her most beloved relatives. She doesn't want to go back and face it. By staying here and not going back to the old house, it's as if her relatives are still in Vientiane."

Zhou Hong nodded slightly. Director Xi Ming was quite capable. In her opinion, no matter what, she had taken real money to help the poor in her country. If she needed an equal return, she would do her best to help her as long as it did not violate her principles.

It doesn't matter who you give a piece of cake to, right? At least if you give it to yourself, you'll also donate a portion to charity.

"Director Ximing has misunderstood me. My family just really wanted to do some good deeds," Zhou Hong said with a smile.

Seeing that the young man still hadn't made any requests even after all this, Director Wan Sai was a little puzzled, but then smiled and said, "Anyway, if you have anything to say, just let me know, and I'll pass the message on to Director Xi Ming."

Zhou Hong nodded and smiled, "How about meeting with the company's management today?"

Director Wan Sai laughed heartily: "I can't wait either!"

"You guys are so boring, I'm leaving!" Officer Anu thought to himself, seeing that the two were playing golf well and talking about official business.

"Anu, you little brat, let me tell you, don't come running back here with a bunch of people chasing you and beating you up! Are you trying to lure monsters?! Are you a professional teammate sabotager?! Well then I'll join in and beat you up too!" Zhou Hong shouted.

Chief Wan Sai laughed heartily, Officer Anu gave him the middle finger, and quickly made his escape.

……

The reception room of Villa No. 1 in the resort was packed with five or six people.

Zhou Hong, Director Wan Sai, Acting General Manager of the Labor and Welfare Bureau's Third-Party Company—Peace and Love Public Welfare Service Company, La Dawen, Project Implementation Department Director Gong Tong, and Financial Director Fu Niang.

Daravin and Gongtong were both recommended by Director Wan Sai. They were originally state cadres, but now they are on unpaid leave to serve as senior executives of the Peace and Love Public Welfare Service Company, with their annual salaries increasing several times.

My original monthly salary, converted to RMB, was only around 200 yuan. Now, my monthly salary is about 800 RMB, and my annual salary is 1 RMB.

Besides the three temporary leaders of the Peace and Love Charity Company, a girl named Thirteen Flower was standing in the corner. She was originally from Laos and came from a village in the core area of ​​the Golden Triangle. Now she came to protect Zhou Hong.

Jin Shazi forced it on him, and Zhou Hong felt it was good to have another errand boy, so he didn't refuse.

"Recently, the main focus of our non-profit organization has been recruiting staff. We prefer more young people because they are energetic and passionate."

As Zhou Hong spoke, Radavin, the temporary general manager of Peace & Love, and Gong Tong, the project action manager, were both diligently taking notes in their notebooks.

Seeing this, Fu Niang was at a loss until Shisanhua handed her paper and pen, at which point she nodded gratefully to Shisanhua.

"Recently, the project team will study the poorest villages in Donggua County and offer our assistance."

All three carriages nodded while taking notes.

Zhou Hong nodded and said, "Our makeshift team is just a temporary setup! In a few days, some colleagues with charity work experience from Xiangguo will come over to train our new employees."

"Chairman, on behalf of the local staff, I warmly welcome you!" Daravin immediately stated solemnly.

Zhou Hong gave him a meaningful look and nodded.

Then he looked at Fu Niang, who was very nervous. He knew she was under great pressure. With more than 10 billion kip in the books, she had to make sure that every expenditure was in order. How could she not be panicked?

In fact, once the finance department recruits professional talent and establishes a sound accounting and cashier system, the finance director will be a high-level supervisor, responsible for the specific operations of the entire finance department.

Zhou Hong scratched his head. Of course, Tongzi was actually his most important financial director.

Every expenditure involving welfare benefits is meticulously calculated by the system.

If you rely solely on data and ignore logic, then even the most complex data becomes child's play for the system.

If there are any abnormalities in the transaction details, the system will list them in red for the system to review.

Of course, water that is too clear has no fish, whether it is the three major residential areas of Xiangguo, Japan, and Hong Kong, or the main areas and ancestral home areas in China.

There were quite a few transactions that were deemed problematic by the system, but as long as they were roughly the same, it was considered a benefit for company employees.

You can't expect your boss to be so petty about every little bit of extra travel expenses someone might claim.

I only look at the weekly data summaries for each branch office.

If the system determines that there is a significant amount of wasted funds in the overall data over several consecutive weeks, exceeding one's acceptable limit, then there is a problem.

Of course, that would mean the branch office had problems with its financial management, not that it was the branch office itself or its lower-level employees doing the accounting.

Well, things are starting to look promising. I need to recruit employees and do various training programs. In a few days, after taking a trip to Tachileik, it'll be time for me to go back and prepare for the college entrance exam.

After the college entrance examination, I happened to go to the Northwest, which kicked off a grand drama of exploiting the system's loopholes.

Being part of the comprehensive working group at Silver Cotton Mill, I don't need to stand out, and nobody even looks for me. I don't need to ask for leave at all, which is really quite nice.
