Previously, it was too safe for the young lady to be around, so I had to act as a doorman at home.
Su Ran lay on the rocking chair, noticing Su Jia's mood, and said with a smile, "You'll be busy when you go abroad."
Su Jia was quite excited upon hearing this, "Miss, when are we going abroad!"
Su Ran pondered for a moment, then slowly uttered, "Soon."
...
Time flies, and soon it was completely dark. In the countryside with its lush greenery, the fields outside were filled with the croaking of frogs, and the chirping of cicadas in the summer night was also quite annoying.
Su Ran hadn't gone to bed yet at this hour, lying in the rocking chair feeling the night's commotion.
Footsteps sounded outside the door, lingered for a while, and then quickly left. A message came through on her phone; Su Ran replied to Su Fuling and Su Jia before setting it aside.
Looking at the night sky through the bamboo gaps in the window, the things to come tomorrow seemed even more interesting.
...
Early the next morning.
Su Fuling brought breakfast to me, so I didn't go downstairs to eat.
[Ding! The current location is the check-in area. Would you like to check in now?]
"Sign in."
[Ding! Sign-in successful! Congratulations, host, you have acquired a company located in Wharton, America...]
Su Ran was somewhat surprised when she heard the system's announcement. "The sign-in is actually related to PMC?"
Then, a somewhat exasperated voice from the system sounded: "[Rest assured, host, the system won't be like those gangster movies, seizing territory or selling illegal goods. Rewards are fair and reasonable, and there will be dedicated transportation lines and channels.]"
Su Ran smiled and said, "This thing is extraordinary. There's no way a company like this could exist in China."
Thinking about who should handle the newly acquired overseas company, Su Bufan recalled that he had recently reported the acquisition of several companies and their integration into the group.
He then messaged Su Qingjiu, asking her to take over the management of the company in the United States.
I was initially thinking that going to the United States would mean starting from scratch, but the system immediately delivered a trump card, which was quite a nice gift.
But even abroad, a middleman is needed; it's not good to have your own people involved, as it could easily cause trouble. After sending his request to Su Qingjiu, he stopped asking questions.
It didn't rain today, and the sun is high in the sky. It's not as cool as yesterday; it's much hotter today.
"Miss, it's time to go." Su Fuling's voice rang out. Su Ran checked the time; it was exactly eight o'clock.
...
We took a car to the foot of the mountain.
It was a muddy path, still wet from the heavy rain the night before. After taking the shoe covers prepared by Canling and putting them on, I prepared to go up the mountain.
Old Li walked in front, Su Fuling walked in second, and Su Ran was in the middle between Su Jia and Su Yi.
Old Li didn't ask much about the extra Su Yi, but kept telling him to watch the road.
They stopped to rest for a while halfway up the mountain. Old Li wiped the sweat from his forehead and pointed to the road ahead, saying, "The road ahead is easier to walk on. There are paved pebbles, and it's not as bad as the previous section, which was all mud."
Su Ran looked in the direction Old Li was pointing and could vaguely see the village, so it seemed that it was not far away.
"Boss, if your eyesight is good, you should be able to vaguely see Tongnan Village. We should be there in about half an hour." Old Li took off his straw hat and fanned himself.
Seeing that the big boss and his companions were not out of breath and hadn't broken a sweat, I was a little dumbfounded. Shouldn't rich people be delicate and frail?
How come he seems even more vigorous than a man who works in the fields every day?
Su Ran was unaware of Lao Li's doubts.
For someone with her stamina, this little bit of exercise is nothing. As for Su Jia and Su Yi, they are bodyguards worth hundreds of millions, so this is nothing to them.
But while Canling is indeed a director, considering his price, he probably has all these attributes maxed out.
After a short rest, they set off again.
"Boss, we've arrived at Tongnan Village."
Old Li's voice rang out, and Su Ran looked at the three characters "Tongnan Village" engraved on the stone tablet.
The village has a simple and clear layout. Several houses are five-story villas, showing no signs of poverty or backwardness. Two or three houses are two-story brick and tile houses, while the rest are mud and tile houses.
Some villagers were carrying hoes and walking home. Su Ran noticed that they were all men, so she followed Old Li into the village.
"Boss, please wait a moment. I'll go ask the village chief which household it is." Su Ran nodded and leaned against the big tree at the village entrance.
In reality, he was secretly observing the surrounding situation.
Old Li returned quickly and then led the way. The village chief and his family were waiting at the door. Upon seeing him arrive, they rushed forward, saying, "This must be the big boss! We've been waiting for you!"
Su Ran looked at the outstretched hand, silently took a step to the side, and the man missed, a flash of sinister ruthlessness crossing his face.
Su Ran said to Old Li, "Uncle Li, you can go down first. We've memorized this road, so we don't need you to lead the way. We'll talk to the village chief about the village's situation later."
Although Old Li was puzzled, he still replied, "Okay, boss. If anything comes up, have Brother Su give me a call."
After seeing Old Li off, we followed the village chief into the house.
After they were seated, the village chief poured tea for them, saying, "Big boss, your visit to Tongnan Village is truly an honor for our village!"
Su Ran yawned and looked around at the decorations. "But the village doesn't seem to need any assistance. I wonder what the situation is like in the village."
Although the village chief was smiling, his smile was unfathomable. "Big boss, we are able to get this situation because of the assistance from people like you. However, the village itself is still very poor. Some elderly people have no children to take care of them, and some have congenital diseases. As the village chief, I am willing but unable to do anything about it! That's why I filled in their information on the foundation."
Su Ran smiled. It seemed that what she thought was correct; there were indeed such people in the village. In other words, these people should be locals.
The family that built the small villa here must be outsiders.
The idea in my mind gradually took shape.
"Then take us to see those families."
The village chief had been waiting for Su Ran to say those words, so he immediately led his men off.
Su Ran followed casually behind, while Su Fuling walked beside her young lady and whispered, "Miss, do they think rich people are all fools?"
Su Ran almost burst out laughing when she heard this. She looked around and quietly pointed to something growing not far away, saying, "Growing this stuff will get you a lifetime in jail."
He paused for a moment and continued, "They probably think that someone like me who selflessly spends money is stupid, so they're not even willing to put on an act."
Su Fuling thought of the fact that the young lady had given over a billion in rewards, and that the foundation already had tens of billions in relief funds, and that they were helping those who had passed the review process without asking for anything in return.
To bad people, they're just a bunch of idiots with too much money.
But Su Fuling didn't say those words aloud. She kept her mouth shut and followed behind, not worried at all about what was about to happen.
Su Jia is capable of taking on ten people by himself, not to mention the other nine. He can also take on five of them on his own, so they are afraid that the other party will not cause trouble.
