Chapter 920 - 347: Philanthropist Donates 1 Billion (Part 2)

Zhang Beixing realized for the first time.
It turns out being a leader is surprisingly exhausting.
After he arrived at the office with his secretary, it took a full seven or eight hours to sort out the pile of paperwork on his desk.
These matters, it’s not that the people below him can’t handle them.
It’s that they’re afraid to handle them.
Some matters can only be decided by him.
The Ninth Bureau is a newly established department, the world’s first Extraordinary Department, unprecedented globally.
Everything in this department is new, with no previous experience to draw reference from.
Any remotely significant matter, nobody dares to make a decision for Zhang Beixing; they have to wait for him to return and decide.
"Alright, make arrangements as soon as possible to implement these matters."
"By the way, reach out to Zhang Delin and ask him when he’ll release Leng Bing for me. With two second-tier members expelled, the team formation is affected, and I need to replenish the team!"
One Great Grandmaster Leng Bing can equal twenty regular second-tier members.
Without confirming the safety of the drug, Zhang Beixing doesn’t dare conduct human experiments lightly.
Leng Bing’s situation is unavoidable; surviving is better than anything, without considering side effects, as it’s a special case.
The secretary left after receiving Zhang Beixing’s instructions.
At this moment, the vast office was left with only Zhang Beixing.
"What should I do now?"
"Go home?"
The thought barely surfaced in Zhang Beixing’s mind before he dismissed it himself.
Not for now.
Just this morning, he managed to brush off Makely’s issue.
He just managed to soothe Lin Siqi and Chen Rourou.
And then the whole Bath Street issue erupted.
Even though Zhang Beixing knows he’s blameless, he can’t stop Lin Siqi from possibly overthinking!
A slight bitterness welled up inside.
He certainly can’t go home now and be a simp.
He needs to wait.
Wait for the situation to calm down first.
Then.
This waiting lasted three whole days.
[After communicating with our reporters and the Ninth Bureau staff, it’s confirmed that the Great Xia Ninth Bureau’s Extraordinary Department has allocated ten billion US dollars for this activity. Minister Zhang Beixing will publicly announce nationwide the establishment of the first Martial Artist High School! Martial Artist High School’s sole admission standard is children and youth without families.]
[Minister Zhang Beixing stated that with greater power comes greater responsibility, and the Ninth Bureau will do its utmost to provide a livelihood path for children and youth without family support.]
[The current enrollment quota is set at ten thousand. The Martial Artist High School established by the Ninth Bureau will fully cover the cost of food, accommodation, and learning for these children and youth...]
The news repeated this announcement in a loop, from the national channel to local stations, playing it several times.
With such publicity.
In terms of philanthropy, Zhang Beixing’s golden reputation was established.
With money, what else is there to do but philanthropy?
However, Zhang Beixing doesn’t trust how effective this fund will be if it ends up in those so-called foundations.
So he decided to manage it himself.
This significant amount of money can also create quite a number of jobs.
"Minister, everything has been arranged."
The uniformed secretary reported to Zhang Beixing, "To save time, we directly submitted a full purchase program to a college in Northern River."
"Due to special considerations, all their new campus students will be relocated to the old campus, and this new campus can accommodate over thirteen thousand students."
"The dormitory can also house over eleven thousand students..."
After the secretary gave a brief rundown, Zhang Beixing nodded.
"Quickly hire people, buy some buses, and bring students from all over the country here. Since it’s the first batch of admissions, be a bit cautious and do thorough screenings to avoid exploitation by unscrupulous people."
"Once we gain experience with the first batch, we’ll expand the scale for the second batch."
Purchasing this school cost Zhang Beixing nearly two billion.
The remaining eight billion, used wisely, should cover the expenses for over ten thousand teachers and students for a year.
Zhang Beixing considered.
If these guys like donating, then donate more to keep the wealth flowing.
Not only should domestic tycoons donate, but overseas ones should chip in too.
For this matter, Zhang Beixing specifically contacted Xu Feng.
"I don’t care how, get Europe’s philanthropists to donate five billion for me this year."
"Huh?"
Xu Feng was baffled by a single sentence.
Before, when the Minister was crusading in Europe, money was never mentioned.
This suddenly...
Has the Minister changed?
Abandoned his principles?
"Huh what? I established an orphan Martial Arts School, providing aid to orphans nationwide and I’m a bit short of cash, you’re out there so find a way to get me some money, understand?"
"Got it! Understood completely!"
Xu Feng heard the reason and immediately agreed with both hands and feet.
As long as the Minister hasn’t been corrupted.
Forget just fighting crime for money.
Even causing havoc in Europe would be fine.
After Zhang Beixing called Xu Feng, that very afternoon he received a contribution of one billion US dollars from unknown European philanthropists for the Ninth Bureau’s orphan support plan.
Suddenly.
The Ninth Bureau’s funds became ample again.
"This is good, no need to launder the money, ha ha."
Zhang Beixing chuckled and instructed his secretary to continue buying schools.
But, as he laughed, he found he couldn’t keep laughing.
Darn it, Lin Siqi called...
...
...
...
"Three days, people in the know would say I’m dating the world-famous Minister Zhang Beixing, the only Transcendent in the world."
"People who don’t know would think I’m a living widow."
"Did you die in the bath pool?"
Lin Siqi sat on the sofa, still in her pajamas, seemingly just woke up.
Zhang Beixing’s keen observation instantly realized she hadn’t slept at all.
Sweat covered his back in an instant.
"Siqi, have you had insomnia?"
Lin Siqi sneered, "Yes, I have, losing sleep because I’ve been worried, terrified that you might be sucked dry by some outside spirit and I’d have to visit the Pyramid to see a mummy with tickets."
Zhang Beixing sighed, "Do you believe I’ve been working non-stop for these past three days?"
"I believe, of course I do."
"Our Minister Zhang, willing to give ten thousand orphans a home, unwilling to give a home to me, this living widow, he doesn’t even want to come home."
"You’re like Dayu, passing your home three times without entering, staying three days without returning, truly a hero of the people."
"..."
How did Lin Siqi get so sharp-tongued?
This roast.
Zhang Beixing moved over to Lin Siqi, sat down, and naturally threw his arm over her shoulder.
Lin Siqi stubbornly refused to lean on his shoulder.
But Zhang Beixing wouldn’t let her get away.
Using some force, she couldn’t resist and had to obediently comply.
"Don’t be mad, you know, as my strength grows, some additional burdens follow me, hard to reject."
Zhang Beixing said softly.
Then he shared a lot about his experiences in Europe.
Of course, he omitted Jennifer and Makely.
Otherwise, this soothing would turn into anger.
As he narrated, Zhang Beixing’s hand began to act mischievously.
"Aren’t you waiting for your sister Rourou?"
"Wait for what? You’re the priority, you’re always first for good things, right?"
Lin Siqi’s current weight seemed as light as cotton to Zhang Beixing.
Easily he lifted her into the bedroom.
All perfectly as planned.
But what Zhang Beixing didn’t expect.
Was there was a lazy person still in bed in the bedroom.
