Shen Dong said earnestly, "I have confidence in the economic development of the inland areas. The question is, after I build the house, can I only rent it out and not sell it? Will the government force me to sell the house?"
Chu Xinghua said, "Definitely not."
Shen Dong said, "That's fine then. There's a second thing. I told you about starting a Project Hope."
Chu Xinghua asked, "Have you thought it through?"
Shen Dong said, "I've thought it through. Education is the foundation of a nation's long-term development. I plan to invest 200 million yuan every year to build Hope Primary Schools in major impoverished areas of the inland, giving those poor children a chance to change their destiny."
Chu Xinghua slammed his hand on the table and said, "Well done."
Shen Dong said, "I plan to locate the headquarters of this charitable foundation in Yandu."

Shen Dong laughed and said, "Does this count as giving your Chu family a political achievement?"
Chu Xinghua said, "Okay. So I'll treat you to a nice lunch today."
Shen Dong said, "You shouldn't cook yourself. To be honest, your cooking skills are mediocre."
"fart."
Chu Xinghua laughed and scolded, "Let me tell you, even my parents haven't tasted a dish I cooked themselves. And you, you're picking on me. Have you lost your conscience?"
Shen Dong shrugged and said, "You overestimate me. I have no conscience at all."
"Ha ha ha ha"
Chu Xinghua burst into laughter at Shen Dong's words.
