Chapter 434: Chapter 294: Innovation (Two updates of 8000 words each)_2 Chapter 434: Chapter 294: Innovation (Two updates of 8000 words each)_2 Seeing chicken in the pot his grandson was cooking, and even a fish beside it, left him astonished.

One must know, his family was so poor that their daily meals were basically just porridge with some pickles.

Sometimes when the business wasn’t good, there was no porridge at all; they could only eat sweet potatoes and other coarse grains, especially his grandchildren, who were at the age when they could eat a lot, often went hungry.

Now, it wasn’t a holiday or a special occasion, so why was today so luxurious?

“Grandpa, we have guests at home, you should come in and see.”

His grandson, seeing him, revealed a happy smile and quickly ran over to pull him into the house.

Wu Baoxian entered the house and saw several bags of rice, flour, oil, and various necessities piled up in the corner.

Two young men and women, wearing Jieke Group uniforms, were talking to his bedridden son.

His grandchildren, each holding a lollipop, were gathered around those two strangers, sweetly calling them uncle and auntie.

“Dad, come quick, these are Jieke Group employees.”

His son, upon seeing him, immediately waved him over, evidently having a pleasant chat with the two Jieke Group employees beforehand.

“You must be Uncle Wu, I’m Xu Run and this is my colleague Zhang Lanong.”

The two Jieke employees also turned around, extending their hands towards him.

“Hello, hello, I know of Jieke Group, you’ve come to my house because…”

Wu Baoxian asked, feeling very flustered and cautious.

“It’s like this, due to your family’s difficult living conditions, which reached the assistance standards of Jieke Group, we’ve come specifically to represent Jieke Group and offer you some material support.”

Xu Run chuckled, explaining their purpose.

Wu Baoxian was stunned; in all his years, this was the first time he’d heard of officials giving out food for free.

“Really…really?”

Wu Baoxian hardly dared to believe what he was hearing; this Jieke Group was actually going to provide him with food.

“We at Jieke Group wouldn’t lie to people; we are currently promoting this initiative throughout Chan Country.”

Xu Run said proudly, describing the initiative to him.

“General Su said Jieke Group isn’t here to cause trouble, but to ensure everyone has enough to eat and keep warm; that’s our unchanging original intention at Jieke Group.”

Wu Baoxian felt like he was listening to a legend; when dealing with the Chan Country Government, they never stopped piling on various exorbitant taxes, always finding ways to empty the few coins in their pockets.

At this point, Zhang Lanong joined in, “Uncle Wu, I see your grandchildren are all of school age but not attending school; that won’t do.

We at Jieke Group have a rule that education is compulsory.”

Wu Baoxian waved his hands in embarrassment: “Going to school, no, no, no, I don’t have that kind of money for school fees; they can’t afford to study.”

“You don’t have to pay anything.

School expenses are covered; that’s a rule at Jieke Group.”

Zhang Lanong explained with a smile, mentioning how Jieke Group had special education funds.

Unlike the Chan Country Government, which penny-pinched at every turn, Jieke Group was affluent to an entirely different degree, adopting compulsory education in one fell swoop.

“Also, one more thing, we just checked your son’s legs, and it seems his leg muscles haven’t atrophied much; there’s a possibility of recovery if treated at a major hospital.

We can help you apply for special medical aid for those in extreme poverty to get him hospital treatment, also at no cost to you.”

Upon hearing this, Wu Baoxian’s pupils dilated, overwhelmed with emotion, tears streaming down his face as he suddenly knelt on the ground.

“Thank you, thank you.

You folks at Jieke Group are truly good people!”

“That’s not necessary, not necessary at all.”

Xu Run and Zhang Lanong hurriedly helped him to his feet.

Wu Baoxian, holding his excited son and calling over his grandchildren, said, “Jieke Group, I will definitely support you from now on.

When my grandchildren grow up, I’ll also have them work for Jieke Group.

Little Bao and you kids, when you grow up, will you work for Jieke Group, okay?”

“Yes, yes, auntie just said that the place she works at has lots of candy.”

“I want to be a soldier for the Jieke Group too, super awesome, and I can specifically fight the bad guys.”

“Grandpa, what is Jieke Group, is it tasty?”

The youngest granddaughter’s teasing brought laughter to the room, filling it with joyful noises and chuckles.

Scenes like this occurred throughout Chan Country.

After gaining complete control over Chan Country, Jieke Group started to implement their various initiatives with great force, altering almost everything from top to bottom that had been wrong with Chan Country in the past, rejuvenating the entire nation.

In doing so, Jieke Group naturally touched the bottom line of a large number of vested interests, primarily the landlords and the gentry.

Although Jieke Group hadn’t confiscated their lands, everyone went to raise insects instead, and no one helped them with the farming, leaving the land to lay idle.

Through this method, Jieke Group easily reclaimed most of the state-owned land and embarked on large-scale intensive farming.

These people did think about stirring up some trouble, but Jieke Group responded with a lightning action, carrying out a purge for half a month, arresting a batch and executing another, eliminating all voices of opposition.

As long as the people who raised issues were dealt with, then all other issues naturally ceased to be problems.

Jieke Group’s actions were simple and crude, but incredibly effective.

Any landlords and gentry who caused trouble were usually greeted by a knock on the door from Jieke soldiers and had their property confiscated and were thrown into prison.

Then there were a few of the biggest local landlords in Chan Country who relied on their private armies, but Jieke Group soldiers didn’t come for them, because what came were Genetic Warriors.

A team of three Genetic Warriors was enough to decimate the thousand-man private forces of these landlords, and then they were arrested and taken back for trial.

Jieke Group, which had managed to repel the Eight Nation Group, found dealing with the small-time gentry’s private soldiers to be like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut, sweeping away all resistance with ease as if it were autumn leaves.

…

Yang City Golden Pagoda.

This is the most famous landmark of Chan Country, with the pagoda being built in the year 585 BCE, standing at 112 meters tall with a base covering 115 square meters.

The body of the pagoda was adorned with over a thousand sheets of pure gold leaf, and the amount of gold employed weighed more than seven tons.

Around the tower hung over 15,000 gold and silver bells; when the wind blew, the ringing was crisp and pleasant to the ear, carrying in all directions.

Su Jie was currently accompanying Liu Yingying on a tour here.

Now that the conflicts in Chan Country had ceased, he also took the time to bring Yingying around.

“Su Jie, I’ve arranged everything for the celebration in three days.

Some countries will send representatives to attend.”

Liu Yingying curled her arm through Su Jie’s as they snuggled together at the top viewing area of the pagoda.

Although she had been traveling recently, she was worried about the lack of proper management below and frequently inquired personally.

After all, from that day onward, Jieke Group was set to officially enter the global stage, dealing with hundreds of nations and regions worldwide.

“Didn’t we agree not to talk about work!”

Su Jie pinched Liu Yingying’s cheek, urging her not to overwork herself.

“Ah, I just can’t help worrying, you see.

Such an important event, it concerns Jieke Group’s reputation and foundation, and all the media from around the world will be there.

If we mess up, it will be in front of the entire world.

Liu Yingying covered her rear, responding irritably to Su Jie: “And you still find time to relax.

Have you memorized your speech for that day?”

“Does your man need to memorize that?

I’ll just improvise as I go along.”

Su Jie held Liu Yingying in his lap and smiled, asking, “By the way, have the invitations been sent out to the Eight Nation Group?

How did they respond?”

“They said they would come, just like you guessed.

I thought they wouldn’t come actually.”

“Heh, after the standard procedure, they’re probably trying to probe our reality.”

Su Jie narrowed his eyes, the brightness at that moment was sure to let the whole world witness the new power of Jieke Group.
