A young man from another world returned to his hometown.

Chapter 72 Solving Problems in Development through Development

"Teacher, I also have to say that rural development is really not easy. We can't rely on funding allocations. Now that we have funds, the lack of construction talent and the ingrained mindset of the residents are also major obstacles to development. This is one of the reasons why I agreed to come here."

"Let me continue with what I've observed. The town's organizational structure is fragile. He uses Pang Donglai's system to distribute money and relies on the personal connections of the patriarchs to get things done. In the end, those who receive money feel that it's their due, while those who don't feel that he's being biased."

He got to do all the good work and break all the rules. For a manager, breaking the rules isn't the problem; the problem is not establishing new rules.

They hired people with high salaries and adopted the Pang Donglai model, distributing all the profits to the employees.

Who will pay for the infrastructure? Now everyone is scrambling to work as a full-time employee in his shop. The whole town is like a patriarch, taking on everything.

Then who will take care of their own finances?

The history of his past bankruptcies and absconding is still fresh in our minds. Now he's acting like a patriarch. Just how much money does he have to burn?

It's all thanks to the Lin family's bloodline and relatives that it's been able to stay afloat. A healthy company needs professionals to do specialized things. But if it relies entirely on family passion and power is highly concentrated, who can guarantee that corruption won't arise?

The finances were a black box. Lin Jiayao managed the money, but Lin Yan could make large expenditures at any time with just a phone call, without any budget or audit.

I really don't know how much money he has to burn, or whether his money has been put into financial transactions.

Or is it simply a matter of throwing money away and investing everything in real industries? If this continues, a systemic collapse is inevitable.

On the other end of the phone, Wei Changfeng remained silent for a long time.

"teacher?"

"...Yes, I'm listening."

Wei Changfeng let out a long sigh of relief.

"Jiuzhang, you are absolutely right."

I jumped right in here because I was moved by the people here. I'm an engineering student, and I'm used to wanting to make things when I see them, but I've never observed a group or organization from a systems perspective like you have.

As the ancients said, a teacher need not be more virtuous than his student, nor a student necessarily inferior to his teacher.

In this respect, you are far superior to me. Bringing you here was definitely the right decision.

As Mu Jiuzhang listened, her nose tingled with emotion. During the time she was subjected to emotional abuse at the research institute, she had also been defiant and defiant, but no one had ever admitted her problems like this.

"Teacher, please don't praise me yet. There's something else I haven't mentioned. I took the opportunity to use that access to search for domestic funding trends and startup cases of emerging businesses during this period."

Lin Yan... has never appeared in any records at all.

Wei Changfeng on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment.

"Um?"

"During his four years of university, he did not establish any companies or conduct any large-scale financial operations, but since returning to his village, he has actually invested at least several hundred million yuan."

Mu Jiuzhang lowered his voice.

"Teacher... I strongly suspect that he is a foreign spy."

"..."

"Hahahaha!"

Wei Changfeng laughed out loud.

"Nine Chapters, you're really something! How did you manage to pin this on a spy?!"

"...Teacher, what are you laughing at?"

Mu Jiuzhang looked serious.

"This is a reasonable inference. The source of his funds is unknown, his behavior is abnormal, and he has a stunningly beautiful foreign wife. His espionage tendencies are off the charts."

Wei Changfeng laughed so hard he coughed.

"Ahem... Jiuzhang, your logic chain is fine in mathematics, but in real life, what spy would come back to build up their hometown?"

"..."

Don't worry.

Wei Changfeng's voice softened again.

"I've met those young people. During the few days I spent with them, their eyes were very clear. Jiuzhang, I've been around for a lifetime, so I still have the ability to judge people. They are a group of very pure people. They want to do things, and they are sincere."

"..."

Mu Jiuzhang remained silent.

"Jiuzhang, now that you've figured out the problem, your teacher is relieved."

Wei Changfeng's tone was tinged with amusement.

"Then you must have a way, right?"

She pushed up her glasses and spoke confidently.

"I will step in. As long as the money is right, no problem is insurmountable."

On the other end of the phone, Wei Changfeng laughed.

"Alright, then I'll entrust this important task to you."

……

The next morning, at the old house, the television was playing a sports channel.

Lin Yan slumped on the sofa, staring blankly at the ceiling, radiating an aura of utter despair.

The sun shone brightly outside the window, and birds sang and flowers bloomed, but all this beautiful scenery appeared gray in his eyes.

Syl poked half his head out from the kitchen.

"Honey, would you like some juice?"

"……want."

Lin Yan responded weakly. He had rushed back from the seaside villa, where he had bought countless swimsuits for his romantic getaway.

Everything's gone.

After Nia and Miki were confined to their home, they truly lived up to their reputation as little devils from another world; when they weren't allowed to go out and play, they went crazy at home.

He was researching why a faucet could spray water even though it didn't have any magic, and he even used the stair railing as a slide. He accidentally spilled his drink on the novel that Sylvain bought, and almost ended up having a scene where he was stewed with dragon meat by an elf's vines.

Lin Yan slapped the sofa.

"I'm going to find my brother right now! We have to get that school up and running immediately! School starts tomorrow!"

Syl chuckled and handed him the juice.

"We can't rush it like that."

A series of clattering sounds came from upstairs.

"Miki, Miki! Where did Dad put the potato chips?"

"Lady Nia! Is this it?"

"Wow! This is a new flavor!"

Lin Yan closed his eyes. He had already begun to miss his sharp-tongued university teacher; at least he could have some peace and quiet.

Just then, the noise from upstairs suddenly subsided.

Lin Yan's ears twitched.

"Um?"

He sensed two small figures crawling on the ground, moving towards the window, trying to slip out.

"..."

Nia whispered to Miki.

"Shh, keep your voice down, Miki. Dad and Mom are always all lovey-dovey, they won't come upstairs..."

"Uh-huh!"

"Lady Niya, Da Mao and Ah Huang from the village entrance said they're going to catch small fish in the river today. Let's sneak out right away!"

Two figures vanished outside the window in an instant.

Lin Yan narrowed his eyes. These two little devils thought they were doing something undetected. He put down his juice, ready to get angry and drag these two little devils back.

?

!

Suddenly, his brain started working at high speed: the two little devils were out playing.

Knowing their personalities, once they start playing, they'll go crazy until dark before going home, without any disturbance all day... Lin Yan's eyes lit up.

"Darling... Nia and the others... ran away."

"Yes, I know."

Lin Yan nodded and grabbed Xier's arm.
