Long Pingting completed the discharge procedures for Chen Yun, and then Chen Yun quietly left the hospital.

They temporarily moved into the Chen family's old house.

Shu Tangyin took the initiative to invite all the relatives and friends who had cared for and looked after Chen Yun over the past few days to come over for dinner.

Firstly, to celebrate Chen Yun's discharge from the hospital, and secondly, to thank relatives and friends for their help during this time.

Relatives and friends knew that Chen Yun had just been discharged from the hospital and needed to rest, so they said goodbye and left after the meal, not wanting to disturb Chen Yun's rest too much.

However, the butcher and the doctor did not leave in a hurry. They stayed until the end, saying that they had something to report to Chen Yun.

Chen Yun nodded: "You two come to my study to talk! Xiao Ting, make a pot of tea and bring it in!"

Long Pingting replied, "Yes, Young Master!"

Chen Yun, along with the butcher and the doctor, entered the study and had just sat down.

Long Pingting had already brought in a pot of freshly brewed Biluochun tea.

Long Pingting skillfully poured a cup of tea for each of Chen Yun and the others, and then prepared to leave.

Chen Yun said calmly, "Xiao Ting, you're not an outsider, you don't need to leave. Besides, I have something to tell you later, please sit down!"

Long Pingting paused for a moment, then nodded and obediently sat down on the chair next to her.

Chen Yun looked at the butcher and the doctor: "Speak, what is it?"

The butcher chuckled, "It's nothing much, just those Westerners we arrested on Mount Tai..."

Chen Yun asked, "Have they all been killed?"

Upon hearing this, the butcher shrank back and weakly said, "No..."

Chen Yun frowned: "Hmm?"

The doctor quickly explained, "Boss, here's what happened. Originally, the higher-ups didn't intend to let these bastards go, but the Western forces behind them are willing to offer a lot of resources in exchange for them."

"This includes economic aspects, scientific research achievements, medical technology, and so on."

"In short, they're willing to bleed a lot of money just to ask us to let these foreigners off the hook..."

Chen Yun asked casually, "Did the higher-ups agree?"

The butcher hurriedly replied, "Not yet. This matter is still under discussion. It's mainly because the older folks, like Elder Qin, want to hear your opinion."

The doctor said, "That's why we were so eager to report to you."

"Old Qin said that the lives of these foreigners are entirely up to you, boss."

"Boss, if you say kill them, then kill them all..."

Chen Yun waved his hand and said calmly, "My teacher treats me like a son. His heart has always been with me. I believe that."

"But other people may not think that way about this."

"I estimate that most people still prefer my approach of letting these foreigners go in exchange for resources in various fields such as the economy, scientific research, and medicine. This is also the most rational approach..."

What else did the butcher and the doctor want to say?

Chen Yun said calmly, “Go back and tell Elder Qin and the other elders that while killing these foreigners would certainly be satisfying, it is more practical to exchange them for a large amount of resources. I agree to the West’s request to redeem these people, but the West must bleed heavily; we cannot release them easily.”

The butcher and the doctor replied in unison, "Yes!"

Chen Yun looked at Long Pingting: "How much money did we make from our betting operations in Hong Kong?"

Long Pingting reported, "Young Master, we've earned approximately 10 trillion!"

"However, we borrowed 700 billion from the Lu Group, and Elder Qin also helped us borrow another 1 trillion..."

Chen Yun interrupted, "Without their loan to help us, we wouldn't have been able to win so much money in the Hong Kong betting market. We can't keep this cake to ourselves."

"The Lu Group's 700 billion principal, plus 300 billion in returns, will total 1 trillion. Return it to Lu Meijia and please convey my thanks to her."

A reward of 300 billion!

What a generous gesture!

Not only the butcher but also the doctor was shocked.

Even Long Pingting was moved.

However, Long Pingting knew that Chen Yun and Lu Meijia had a life-or-death bond, and that Lu Meijia would lend Chen Yun money without considering the consequences whenever he needed it.

This time, Chen Yun has given Lu Meijia a very generous reward.

Long Pingting said, "Yes, young master, I will take care of this matter in a moment."

Chen Yun added, "Since Elder Qin helped us repay the one trillion we borrowed, I won't mention any compensation to my teacher."

"However, after you return this one trillion, donate three trillion to the national treasury in the name of the Qin family."

"The higher-ups decide where these three trillion yuan go and how they use it!"

Long Pingting, the butcher, and the doctor were shocked once again.

Return one trillion to the Qin family.

This is necessary and beyond reproach.

However, Chen Yun donated three trillion yuan to the national treasury in the name of the Qin family.

This is terrifying!

Long Pingting hurriedly said, "Young Master, you risked your life this time, almost losing your life. We only won ten trillion from the Japanese and Westerners in Hong Kong."

"If we do it your way, we'll lose almost half of our profits!"

Chen Yun didn't speak, but simply smiled and gazed at Long Pingting.

Long Pingting lowered her head and said weakly, "Young Master, please forget what I just said. I will do as you instruct me later."

Chen Yun said, "Go!"

The butcher and the doctor hurriedly said, "Boss, we'll take our leave too."

Chen Yun nodded: "Mm!"

Just as the butcher and the others were pushed out, Long Pingting came in with a bowl of decocted Chinese medicine and urged Chen Yun to take it.

Chen Yun drank it casually.

Then the two started talking about marriage.

They said they were going to discuss wedding arrangements together.

In reality, Shu Tangyin had made all the arrangements, explaining them to Chen Yun one by one, and also taking the opportunity to listen to Chen Yun's opinions.

Chen Yun held his fiancée, listened patiently with a smile, and then said with a smile, "Let's decide according to your plan. I'm good at military campaigns, but I'll have to rely on you for things like daily life!"

Shu Tangyin said with a charming smile, "Then I'll tell you too, and hear your opinion. If you think it's okay, then it's fine."

Chen Yun smiled and said, "No problem, I trust you. You can manage a big company well, so you can definitely arrange a simple wedding."

Shu Tangyin was both amused and exasperated.

Just then.

Long Pingting knocked on the door and came in.

She said with a strange expression, "Young Master, I did as you said and had the finance department transfer one trillion to the Lu Group's account."

"But after I had the finance department transfer three trillion yuan into the national treasury, not long after, the national treasury returned the money to the original source."

Alas?

The three trillion yuan donated to the national treasury has been returned?

What's going on?

Just as Chen Yun was wondering.

His phone rang.

It was a call from Old Qin.

As soon as the call connected, Qin Lao's cheerful voice came through the phone: "Chen Yun, the higher-ups are very pleased that you put the big picture first and agreed to let those foreigners go in exchange for a large amount of resources that benefit the country and its people."

“The three trillion yuan you donated to the national treasury in the name of the Qin family has been known to the higher-ups and to us old folks.”

"The higher-ups said you've sacrificed too much this time."

"Keep these three trillion for yourself!"

"This time, our Dragon Kingdom will be able to obtain a large amount of resources from foreigners, so we're too embarrassed to ask you for more money."

Chen Yun said, "But..."

Old Qin said, "No buts. This is the will of the higher-ups, the will of several elders, and my own will. We appreciate your kindness."

"When you and Xiao Shu get married, don't forget to invite all of you old men to the wedding banquet, and don't forget to let me be your witness."

Chen Yun smiled and said, "Okay!"
