Gu Guanhai looked at the rapidly receding scenery outside the car and slowly said, "Wife, don't you think the Western Empire is developed?"
Yu Mingxiang nodded.
Compared to the Xia Kingdom of this era, the Western Empire today is undoubtedly more developed.
Not only was the Western Empire developed, but the foreign countries associated with the Western Empire were also more developed than the Xia Kingdom, which suffered greatly from war.
Gu Guanhai: "But their prosperity is built on our suffering."
"The indemnities we paid at the end of our dynasty contributed to their current prosperity, yet now they are encircling and suppressing us, blocking our technological development..."
"Therefore, we have our own talent development plan!"
"They are the seeds of our Xia Kingdom's potential development. We believe that one day, they will grow into towering trees and give back to our motherland!"
"..."
Yu Mingxiang: "..."
She is just an ordinary person.
Even in her past life, when she had built a large business and had more knowledge than the average person, she still couldn't match the understanding of people like Gu Guanhai.
Unable to catch up, Yu Mingxiang had no intention of forcibly trying to catch up.
Everyone has their strengths, and in this respect, she and Gu Guanhai are different.
For example, Qiu Jin was able to get into this university purely by spending money, and even from Yu Mingxiang's perspective, that amount of money was a considerable expense, but...
Neither Gu Guanhai nor Lao Yuan and the others changed their expressions.
From Yu Mingxiang's perspective, this is quite incomprehensible.
As a businesswoman, and a thoroughly shrewd businesswoman in her past life, Yu Mingxiang's thinking was somewhat profit-driven. From her perspective, Xia Kingdom was already so impoverished, so it should increase revenue and reduce expenditure. Although Qiu Jin's purpose in entering that university was to protect her daughter, she still felt the pinch of that expense, but...
Gu Guanhai and his group seemed to firmly believe that it was worthwhile.
Effort and reward...
Before knowing what her daughter would grow up to be like, even Yu Mingxiang felt that this investment was a huge gamble, but...
Gu Guanhai and the organization, however, firmly believed in it.
Gu Guanhai: ...
He doesn't know what his wife is thinking. If he knew, he would definitely tell her that there are no investments that guarantee profits; what they're hoping for is just a "what if"...
They cherish every genius born on the land of Xia.
They are willing to invest a lot of effort in it.
It's all so that one day, after they've completed their studies, they can give back to their country in some way!
Even if...
Just one or two!
Each of these could become a drop of water, a brick, that could change the impoverished and backward state of their Xia Kingdom.
Water droplets flow back to form the sea.
The Great Wall was built with bricks and stones.
They firmly believe that one day, their Xia Kingdom will be able to break through all the blockades and bottlenecks, and usher in a brand new world.
Just like his wife said.
Just like her daughter-in-law's previous life, decades later, their Xia Kingdom has changed drastically.
That change requires the efforts of millions upon millions of people, spanning one or even several generations, and they are now...
That's all I'm doing.
Not long after Yu Mingxiang and Gu Guanhai returned to the villa, her missing elder brother reappeared.
Yu Mingxiang: ...
Seeing his older brother, he wanted to say something, but...
"Sister, I have something to tell my brother-in-law about work."
Yu Chengping gave her a perfunctory greeting and then left in a hurry with Gu Guanhai.
Yu Mingxiang: "!!!"
He let out a long sigh as he watched the two figures walk away together.
All she could do for them was complete the final transport of that batch of grain; nothing else...
She couldn't help them with anything else!
Not only could they not help, Gu Guanhai and her elder brother even had to spare a lot of manpower to protect her safety in the Western Empire.
Yu Mingxiang: ...
Looking at the people from the Special Abilities Bureau standing at the door, he paced back and forth anxiously.
She didn't know if her mission would go smoothly, but...
But a vague unease lingered in my heart.
In a daze, it felt as if something bad was about to happen.
