"donate!"
Yu Mingxiang said firmly, "It is our duty to contribute to the country. Not only that, I also brought the deeds to several courtyards!"
She brought all the gold she had smuggled from the Wei and Liu families, as well as the jewelry, antiques, and property deeds she had acquired from them…
It's so eye-catching!
Donating it would be tantamount to admitting guilt, and Yu Mingxiang wasn't that foolish.
She produced the deeds to some of her own properties, including the one in the alley and the one Liu Wenbin lived in, along with gold of equal value, and exchanged them for the remaining items belonging to the Wei and Liu families. She then added a considerable amount of gold as hard currency for herself. Not only that, she also mixed in several of the Qin family's more eye-catching treasures...
When you calculate it this way, the value is indeed quite high!
Not only could she provide enough food and drink for Dean Cai and others in the Northwest, she could also lend a helping hand to their scientific research.
Upon hearing this, Qin Weiguo said: ...
His mom... she really went for it!
This donation has probably wiped out their entire fortune!
The research institute has become wealthy, but they can no longer rely on their past achievements; they will have to live a down-to-earth life from now on.
However, Qin Weiguo felt there was nothing wrong with this. He was a down-to-earth and hardworking person who had never coveted his family's wealth. In addition, the institute's various research projects were at a critical stage and were currently short of funding. With this donation, the institute's pressure would definitely be relieved a lot...
Yu Mingxiang took in her eldest son's expression, pursed her lips, and shook her head.
She knew her eldest son probably thought she had donated all of their wealth, but in fact...
All she could say was that her son knew nothing about the Qin and Yu families' wealth!
The Qin family was a family of scholars, while the Yu family were wealthy merchants. The majority of what the two families had accumulated over the generations was not actually those gold houses, but the antique treasures stored in her space!
That is the real priceless treasure!
In times of chaos, gold is valued; in times of prosperity, jade is prized. Those things are not suitable to be brought out now…
Dean's Office.
Dean Cai looked at the items donated by the mother and daughter, his old face changing repeatedly. Finally, he sighed and said, "That's good, it can be considered a way to eliminate future troubles!"
He was much older than Yu Mingxiang. Having lived to his age, while he wouldn't dare say he was insightful about the ways of the world, he could certainly be considered worldly-wise.
A tall tree catches the wind; possessing a treasure is a crime.
The Qin and Yu families were well-known wealthy families among the older generation, and Dean Cai had naturally heard of them as well. That's why he readily agreed when his prized students, Qin Weiguo and Xue Ru, said they wanted to go to the countryside yesterday.
In retrospect, it seems that the couple's mother sensed something was amiss and made preparations in advance.
"If Dean Cai says it's good, then it must be excellent."
Yu Mingxiang understood his implication and smiled.
"We still want to thank you. Thank you for donating your family property to us before you went to the countryside. You have solved our urgent problem."
The principle is one thing, but how many people can actually give up their vast wealth to prevent future troubles?
Dean Cai admired Yu Mingxiang's decisive actions and sincerely thanked her, saying, "Everyone knows that our research focus is in the Northwest, a remote and harsh place. With your donation, not only can our research progress smoothly, but we can also help the poor people living there..."
"We would be content if we could contribute to the country's scientific research and help the poor."
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang smiled and said.
In her past life, her son and daughter-in-law did not survive in the Northwest, as did several other retired cadres who were sent down to the countryside.
Although Dean Cai did his best to help them at that time, their research team was short of resources, and there were few people who could help them.
But this time, it's different.
