I Fucking Thank You!
The money used for environmental assessment and environmental protection was not from Lin Qi. This statement left Neil speechless for a moment. Just six months ago, he was a worker and did not possess the knowledge of a capitalist. Therefore, he did not understand why Lin Qi would say such a thing.
This money will undoubtedly come out of Lin Qi's account, but why isn't it coming from him?
Would anyone pay for this? A whole new world was before him, and now he was only one door away from it. He knew that once he stepped through that door, the Neil behind it would not be the Neil he knew now.
He was anxious but didn't know how to express it, so he could only look at Lin Qi with longing.
Lin Qi was amused by his appearance. In fact, even the greatest hatred between father and son can be resolved after becoming wealthy—but there is a prerequisite: it must be after becoming wealthy that true reconciliation can be achieved.
Because money has given them everything they wanted and has also mended the rifts that arose from their past poverty, their relationship has become increasingly harmonious as they have become wealthier. Just as the Federal education elites say, parents are their children's best friends.
They are friends now, and can be seen as the perfect example.
However, such a relationship cannot exist in poverty. If a family becomes increasingly poor, the rift between family members will widen, and they may even become enemies.
Those news reports on TV and in newspapers about so-and-so kicking so-and-so out of their home, making a big fuss and being seen as a scandal of moral depravity, are actually not about these people having moral problems, but about them being too poor.
Poverty forces them to take care of only themselves; they cannot afford to have another person, so they have to do this.
The first essential purpose of human existence in this world is to live, and to survive, and to survive, you need money.
Romance, love, ideas, politics—whatever it may be—has been corrupted by money, leaving deep wounds.
Lin Qi took a slow breath, stretched, and looked out the window. The dilapidated city no longer seemed so unpleasant, because he was sitting in the "palace".
A cool breeze gently blew, stirring the thin gauze hanging beside the surrounding pillars, creating a picturesque scene.
A few seconds later, he let out a sigh of relief, his whole body relaxing into a wonderful state. With a slightly lazy emphasis, he patiently began to explain.
"This money should actually come from the Provincial Governor, or from the locals, or from their United Kingdom's Central Government —anyone is fine, except me."
"According to some of the cooperation agreements we signed with them, these factories that we built were actually built for them, because the rights to these factories will eventually be transferred to the successor designated by the Nagaril United Kingdom."
"Rights not only have positive assets, but also negative assets, and these negative assets..." Lin Qi shrugged, "Will also be transferred to them."
"Moreover, doing this is very helpful for our image in Nagaril, which is something we need to emphasize in our promotion. No matter what our other shareholders do, we must do our best to do it well."
"I want people to have a very quick reaction when they talk about Lin Qi or the companies I'm associated with."
He said in an exaggerated tone, "Oh, I know that company. Mr. Lin Qi Mr. Lin Qi a responsible social entrepreneur, and my whole family is proud of his work!"
After he finished speaking, both father and son laughed. Lin Qi was always so serious, but when he was being unserious, he could make people feel very relaxed.
After a moment, Neil continued, "But we're still paying for this, right?"
Lin Qi shook his head. "No, you know, I've had more in-depth contact with Jinhui Bank. They're very interested in some of my ideas, and we've reached some cooperation agreements, for example..."
"... For example, Mr. Lin Qi might increase expenses in various ways, and then we would have to pay for it!"
On a cruise ship about to arrive in Nagaril, Qiao Geliman was chatting with his second-in-command. At this moment, he was looking at the coastline that had already appeared on the horizon in the distance, and his expression was a little... strange.
He was indeed smiling, but the smile didn't make anyone feel happy; instead, it seemed like a smile of pain or discomfort.
But even though he's in a lot of pain and discomfort right now, there's a very positive aura about him.
He didn't know whether to thank Lin Qi or curse the bastard. His performance last year was excellent, thanks to the increasing number of people who were short of money, which led to a surge in loan business.
In addition, he defeated the competitors from the branch, which has generated more buzz in both the Sabine City and State branches. It is possible that Qiao Geliman will become the new president after the old president retires, probably in four or five years.
He is still young, he can afford to wait. It is already a remarkable achievement for him to become a bank manager before retirement. This is beyond the scope of many people's understanding of the word "effort", because it is not something that can be achieved by effort alone.
Although he was just a low-level bank manager, this was enough for him to climb to a higher position and have more power.
It can be said that once he reaches this position, everything will be smooth sailing for him, and he will have absolute power.
But to his surprise, just when he was feeling triumphant, the head office called him and summoned him. When he arrived, he learned that the reason the head office had summoned him was because he had a very good relationship with Lin Qi.
Now that Lin Qi has carved out a large territory in Nagaril, it would be a disservice to the board members of Goldlink's Board of Directors not to plant their flag there, given their public image as vampire bankers.
It's not just Lin Qi's territory that needs to be marked; other people's territories will also have people with good relationships with the local leaders establish branches there.
He was dispatched to Nagaril to establish a branch in Lin Qi's territory, and he would serve as the branch manager.
You'd think this would be a happy thing, but being sent from the Federal to a poor place like Nagaril is definitely not a happy thing.
But if you're saying he's unhappy, it's because the bank manager position, which was supposed to be four or five years away and still subject to change, was suddenly secured by him a few years ahead of schedule. So he's conflicted and conflicted now, all because of Lin Qi! He thought to himself with a gleeful expression, it's all that guy's fault! "Mr. Qiao Geliman, this loan..." The words of the young man sitting next to Qiao Geliman pulled him back from his chaotic thoughts.
He looked at the young people around him. They and the other Big Five Banks had booked an entire floor of the cruise ship. The floor was full of bank staff, including clerical workers and security guards. They would also be sending armed escort vehicles and more building materials later. They were going to build a vault locally.
The young man sitting next to him was from Carl, supposedly the nephew of some director, and might become a director of Jinhui in the future.
His smile softened considerably. "What's wrong? Do you think this isn't in the bank's best interest?"
The young man nodded, feeling that the loan terms were too long and would hinder the bank's expansion.
If this kind of business is handled by headquarters, there's not much of a problem. But if it's done by their branches, the funds might be tight. This involves not just this one loan, but many other loans as well.
Qiao Geliman looked around. No one seemed to be paying attention to them, and no one approached them. He lowered his voice slightly, his tone laced with mystery, "I feel that you and I are very..." He gestured with his hand, "... close. Don't tell anyone else about this."
After the young man nodded, he said, "We don't intend for the Nagaril People to pay this money back, do you understand what I mean?"
"Actually, our real goal is currency rights. The more they can't repay, the happier the headquarters and the United Development Company are. If you were given an opportunity to buy the Issuing Rights the legal tender of a country with 200 million people, even if the price was very high, would you be willing?"
The moment Qiao Geliman uttered those words, the young man beside him felt a chill run down his spine. He had no idea that there was so much more to it than just a loan issue.
In fact, since the establishment of this United Development Company, the Federal economy, which had been sluggish for several years, has shown signs of recovery. A large number of orders have flooded into society, and many factories that were on the verge of bankruptcy have started operating again, which has relieved a lot of pressure.
This also made the top levels of the Federal Government, the president and the Minister, realize that Nagaril is very important to the Federal at this stage.
This statement may not be very intuitive, but to put it simply, it means that the blood and sweat of the Nagaril People will be used to support the Federal people. No matter how inhumane the Federal's policies are, no one in the Federal will stand up to protest.
The president will gain more support from all levels of society, conglomerates will find enough profits in Nagaril, and ordinary people will start to have jobs, and even opportunities to work abroad.
Everything is moving in a positive direction, so why not let this phenomenon, or rather this state, continue for a longer period? This requires controlling Nagaril from multiple perspectives, including political, economic, and social aspects. Of course, the Federal won't be so blatant about it publicly; they will tell everyone that this is Federal aid to Nagaril! It's International Community responsibility that the Federal has proactively undertaken after joining the International Community, helping those underdeveloped brotherly countries achieve their dream of economic take-off as soon as possible! What kind of sentiment and dedication is this? It's a great sentiment and dedication!!! The Federal: It's only right, don't mention it!
