Chapter 350 Handling Property
Mao Li was busy repairing the Space Pioneer spaceship, while Lele and Xiao Bao assisted in smelting metal. Modi Lan Dun looked at his two subordinates and said:
"In a few hours or at most a day, the spaceship will leave this planet. This departure is uncertain and life and death are unpredictable. After leaving, it may never return."
Matt, the money in my account that I entrusted to you for investment.
You can keep one-third for yourself, and leave one-third as a public fund for Mont Thong and the guards. The money will be quickly spent in their hands, but it can last longer if you manage it.
The remaining third of the profits should be used to help the impoverished descendants of the Landun family when the time is right.
Mina, I will transfer one-third of the current balance in my account to you, and the other half to Grandfather.
"My lord, I will never leave you, I will follow you to the death!" Mina said, her eyes reddening.
"My lord, I had already made arrangements before you even spoke. I used all the assets in your account to buy long-term financial bonds from the Jing family."
As you know, given your relationship with Young Master Jing and the Jing family's excellent reputation in the financial world, these bonds should be able to generate decent dividends for at least the next twenty years.
Now that you have made arrangements, I will change the beneficiaries of these bond dividends to the people you designate.
The one-third you leave me personally will be retained as dividends. If we haven't returned in twenty years, all assets in my account will be transferred to a charitable foundation specifically to support orphans on Green Algae Star.
Matt spoke in a calm tone, as if he were discussing what to have for dinner.
He was an orphan, but also a very insightful person. From the day he decided to follow Morti Lann, he wanted to assist him and stand at the pinnacle of this world.
After following him, as they spent more and more time together, he became more and more certain of his initial choice. This master was cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and was one of the few masters who valued the lives of his subordinates as much as his own.
After that, he decided that he would never marry another man in his life.
In fact, with his current status as a seventh-tier mental ability user, he could not only roam freely throughout the entire Green Algae Star, but even after leaving the Lan Shield family, he could still rely on his own strength to enter the upper class.
But looking at the entire Lan Dun family, apart from Modi Lan Dun, there was no one else worthy of his unwavering loyalty.
Rather than that, let's stick with the adults and face life and death together.
Matt has always been a shrewd and calculating person; otherwise, Morty wouldn't have entrusted him with full responsibility for managing his personal assets.
In Matt's more than thirty years of life, this was the first time he had set aside personal gains and losses and made such a life-or-death decision.
He smiled bitterly to himself, laughing at his own youthful impulsiveness. But he knew clearly that if he chose to stay on Green Algae Star and eke out a living, he would live the rest of his life in regret.
Of the two subordinates, Mina's choice was not at all unexpected to him. This girl was an orphan who had once joined a mercenary group with a bad reputation. When she went out hunting, she encountered danger and was pushed into the mouth of a mutated beast by her companions in order to buy time to escape.
He happened to be passing by and rescued her. From then on, she was loyal to him without wavering for a moment.
On the contrary, Matt's choice surprised him. He usually liked to assess the situation and strive for the greatest benefit for his master and himself, and would never take risks easily.
But this time, he chose to follow him to a distant place fraught with countless unknown risks, even though he could have continued to live a leisurely and wealthy life on Algae Star.
Even if the Northern Hemisphere falls, with his talent, he can still thrive in the Southern Hemisphere.
“In that case, you may come with me. As long as I live, I will do my best to keep you safe,” said Mortilan Shield.
Bo Yiyan watched the interaction between the three of them and felt a little envious. He had lived for more than 30 years and on the vast Green Algae Star, apart from his friend Zuo Shan, he had no one he could entrust his back to.
His family members, needless to say, only ever used his name to seek personal gain; no one cared about his joys or sorrows.
“Achen, you have two choices: one is to come with us, and the other is to stay in the Lan Dun family and become the head of the family. With your talent, your future will be bright.” Modi Lan Dun looked at his son and said solemnly.
“I’ve always only had one choice: to stay with my mom.” Achen gave him a look that said, “Are you out of your mind?”
If his mother hadn't wanted to come to the central district, even if she had stayed in District 48 for her entire life, he would never have left with his father.
If his mother were to divorce his father in the future, he would follow her without hesitation. This was predetermined even before he was born, when he and his mother were starving in District 50, and it would never change.
Achen was busy transferring money. His account contained money his father transferred every year, as well as all the balance his mother had transferred from her account before she fell into a coma.
But now that he's leaving Algae Star, that money is worthless.
If he ever has the chance to come back in the future, he'll probably make money very easily.
First, he transferred 100 million silver coins to Madam Gu and the butler, and also transferred 5 million silver coins to Uncle Wu's family next door, who had always taken good care of him and his mother when he was a child.
Finally, he transferred 1 million to each of his friends Meng Rui, Kong Lingling, and Tsuzaki Kaori, who always complained that they didn't have enough pocket money.
He had 11 figures left, and he transferred one-third to his great-grandfather. He asked Matt to help him donate the rest to a reliable charitable foundation, ensuring that the money would be used for orphans in districts 48, 49, and 50.
Seeing that everyone had disposed of their balances, Bo Yiyan also transferred all the money in his account to the Pharmacy Association, where it was overseen by an officially designated administrator.
Half of the funds were used for research on new drugs, and the other half were used to formulate common drugs, ensuring that these common drugs were provided free of charge to the poor outside the fortieth district.
Mina was even more straightforward; she simply transferred all her money to Monton and asked him to distribute it among the guards. She didn't have any other close friends.
Seeing how everyone handled their account balances, Mortilan felt ashamed. Even his son had thought about taking care of orphans in remote and impoverished areas, but he had never thought about them.
It's no wonder he couldn't imagine that, having been born with a silver spoon in his mouth, he had never experienced the hardships of life, unlike others who had all experienced poverty.
