Chapter 26: It’s useless for me to ask for money! I want you to build a thousand schools! (Please read on!)
Listen to this number.
"One billion US dollars? It's not expensive. It's too cheap!"
The corners of Zhang Yuli's mouth lifted up, and that strong smile could not be concealed no matter what.
Converted into RMB, the remuneration is close to 7 billion, which is quite terrifying in this era when the housing price in Yanjing is only more than 10,000 yuan per square meter.
"But isn't a billion dollars a bit too low?"
Zheng Lixing stroked his graying beard and narrowed his eyes slightly: "I'm worried. How about we ask him to report a higher price?"
"There is no need for that. Since this is the condition he proposed, we should just meet it unconditionally. There is no need to create any more trouble."
Zhang Yuli waved his hand and did not agree with the proposal.
He was very clear about Zheng Lixing's concerns. Why should he ask the mysterious man to increase his remuneration?
Isn't it because the F22 fighter technology and the Boeing 777 technology, the value of both is really too high. Ten billion US dollars can only be said to be negligible in front of these two. It is better to increase the remuneration price a bit to appear more generous.
However, he felt that since the mysterious man asked for 1 billion US dollars, he should give as much as he deserved.
This is not a transaction, nor is there any technology buying or selling.
If the mysterious man really wants to find someone to sell it at a high price, how many countries in the world are willing to buy any one of them for tens of billions of dollars? Even the big oil producers in the Middle East are willing to pay more and can give you cash immediately.
Daxia has always adhered to the concept of giving whatever is asked for and doing its best to achieve anything that can be done.
"Let's do this. This is the safest way at the moment."
Zheng Lixing seemed to have thought of something, and could not help but nod and smile: "Fortunately, we are now developing rapidly. If it were a few decades ago, I am afraid we would not even be able to come up with this 1 billion US dollars."
This seems like a huge amount of money, but fortunately it is at this point in time. If it were decades ago, it would have been difficult for Daxia to come up with so much money. After all, the entire country's foreign exchange reserves were only a few hundred million or at most a dozen or two billion US dollars.
"Let alone decades ago, our foreign exchange reserves were only 20 to 30 billion U.S. dollars more than 20 years ago."
"Fortunately, we are much richer now, and our life is much better. These ten billion dollars are nothing." Zhang Yuli's eyes seemed to reflect the background of that era.
The country was really poor at that time. Many military factories were either closed or converted from military to civilian use to make profits to support themselves. Even the 611 Research Institute was forced to make a living and stopped making fighter jets but instead started making 611 brand washing machines part-time.
But it is different now. Although Daxia cannot be considered wealthy, it is not so poor that it cannot even come up with ten billion US dollars.
Zhang Yuli stared at the screen and murmured, "I just don't know what payment method this mysterious person will choose?"
"Physical currency? Gold and precious metals? Or is it possible for us to transfer the money directly to him?"
Zheng Lixing also reminded at this time: "We must be cautious about this matter. Be extra cautious, be alert, and make all possible precautions in advance."
"I know." Zhang Yuli nodded.
No matter what method is used, it is not easy to safely deliver the reward to the Americans.
It’s not that he’s afraid of losing the money along the way or something, but once the money is discovered, there will be a risk of leakage, which will be very unfavorable to the mysterious man, so he must make careful preparations.
however.
As the two kept thinking about how to hand over this huge reward to the mysterious person in Eagle Sauce without leaking it at all.
Suddenly, the sound of an email message rang throughout the room, and the mysterious person replied.
Zhang Yuli quickly clicked on the backend mailbox to check.
[No need for bank transfers or payments, I hope you can use another method to replace the 1 billion US dollars.]
"What method? We will arrange it as quickly as possible." Zhang Yuli quickly typed a line of words and clicked send.
Even if the mysterious man asked Daxia to launch a space rocket into space and then drop the ten billion U.S. dollars to a designated place by free fall, they would do it directly.
However, when they saw the content of the next email sent by the mysterious person, their minds went blank.
[I hope you can use these rewards as building schools, and spend all the 1 billion US dollars on this.]
Zheng Lixing's face was filled with big question marks: "Build a school? The compensation will be replaced by building a school?"
"What is he trying to do? Is there any other way to do it that strange?"
He was in his sixties and seventies, and this was the first time he heard someone ask for compensation in this way.
Zhang Yuli was also choked and coughed a few times: "Ahem. Where is he going to build the school? And he wants to spend a billion dollars here, so what scale does it have to be?"
With ten billion US dollars, you can even build several universities.
With this question in mind, he responded immediately.
'How do you need to build a school? What size? Where? Do you really want to pay for it this way?'
The mysterious person over there replied to the email just as quickly.
【This is our decision. Please use the one billion US dollars to spend all on school construction. 】
[Please calculate how many schools can be built in total, evenly distributing them among primary schools, middle schools and high schools.]
'700 billion RMB can currently build about 200 primary schools, 100 junior high schools, high schools, a total of schools.'
'Where will the construction be decided?'
As the president of Xia Academy of Sciences, Zhang Yuli quickly calculated the accurate result based on the current construction price of Daxia.
Among them, the construction cost of primary schools is the cheapest, ranging from hundreds of thousands, but the demand is the greatest.
Junior high schools and high schools are more expensive, requiring at least several million to build one. Especially for higher-level high schools, it is normal for one to cost tens of millions.
[We have decided to use the $1 billion in compensation to build 1,000 schools in rural towns throughout the Northwest Province of Daxia. We hope you can start construction as soon as possible.]
Eagle sauce, LLNL laboratory staff dormitory.
After Lu Ze sent this message, he immediately turned off the light screen projection on his eyeballs.
"A reward of one billion US dollars, if you get it, something bad will happen in a minute." He shook his head.
If Daxia rashly transfers 1 billion US dollars abroad, it will be targeted by Wall Street capital in the United States in a minute, and by then it will be eaten up without leaving anything behind.
Whether it is precious metals or other equivalent items, there is no guarantee that the information will not be leaked. Even the so-called "bearer checks" are a leaky window for the Eagle Sauce, and they can be checked at will. Lu Ze is not willing to take such a risk.
Anyway, there will be plenty of ways to make money in the future, so why bother about temporary benefits?
"A thousand schools should make it easier for the kids back home to learn, right?"
“Even if there are a few more college students in the village, it will be worth it.” Lu Ze muttered to himself.
That’s right, the North West Province is where his hometown is.
He still remembers that when he was admitted to university, he had the idea of giving up going to university because his family was poor and could not afford the tuition for his studies.
After all, even if the tuition fee was only a few thousand yuan a year, it was an unaffordable amount of money for a rural farming family like them. Even the travel expenses to Yanjing were a big problem.
Lu Ze's father was ready to sell the old ox that had grown up with him, and he gritted his teeth to raise money for his schooling.
At this critical time, the whole village contributed a few dollars to raise his tuition and travel expenses, and he had to eat eggs given to him by his neighbors on the way.
Lu Ze must repay this kindness no matter what.
