"You mean, that piece of land is yours?" Sitting in the seat that Yan San reluctantly gave up, he twisted his buttocks comfortably in the spacious first-class seat, and looked at the people sitting in the first-class cabin. About the other men, Yi Chengfen leaned into Ling Qingyu's ear and asked softly.
Ling Qingyu glared at her and said softly, "You have confirmed this five times."
Yi Chengfen followed the aid team to Africa, and the whole team just paid for the first-class ticket by himself. This plane is a small plane, and there are only eight seats in the first-class cabin. Six, and there was no more space, so He Li let Yi Chengfen take the initiative to sit in the back.
From the time the two of them went to the bathroom together and Ling Qingyu said it the first time, to now when they boarded the plane and sat down, Yi Chengfen asked her the same question five times in complete disbelief.
Yi Chengfen sighed and said, "Isn't it still like a dream? Tell me, do I know a real rich man in the future?"
"What you want to say is how much money I can give you for charity?" Ling Qingyu twitched the corner of his mouth, looked at her sideways and said softly.
When Yi Chengfen is with someone she doesn't know and doesn't like, she is a cold and arrogant flower. Once she gets to know her well, especially with someone who even wears shorts with her, what will happen? The demeanor is gone, just look at the expressions of He Li, Hua Zhonghua who rushed over afterward, and the little girls who haven't recovered yet. She just raised her eyebrows, and Ling Qingyu knew what she was going to say fart.
"You still smell like copper." Yi Chengfen twitched his eyes, then sighed, and said, "Do you know what the country you are going to be like? Apart from volcanoes, Jibubu is a desert. There is no industry, no mining, and no resources. The only economic pillar of the Djibub Port is still operated by Dubai. Most of the country's 600,000 population is concentrated in the Djibub Port, but most of them are poor people who cannot even guarantee food and clothing. The unemployment rate in the whole city is over 30%, and there is not even a decent building there."
"I know, you said that just now." Ling Qingyu fastened his seat belt and said, "Didn't He Li promise you that we donated 10 million yuan to build a hospital for them?"
"Qingyu, you're an oil tycoon!" Under Yan San's cold gaze, Yi Chengfen lowered his voice and said, "So what if you give them more? You just bought a few less watches and a few more pieces." Clothes, but they can feed those people."
"and then?"
Hearing Ling Qingyu's cold voice, Yi Chengfen was stunned for a moment, seeing a cold look on Ling Qingyu's face that he had never seen before, and said: "What then?"
"Let them eat, and then? I can give 10 million, 20 million, and feed them for a year, two, or even ten years, but what about in the future? Fifty years, a hundred years, the continuation of their nation will depend on me Charity?" Ling Qingyu shook his head slightly and said, "That's impossible, Yi Yi, there are many poor people in our motherland, and there are also many people who can't get food and clothing, why don't you want me to give them? Of course,"
Seeing that Yi Chengfen was about to speak, Ling Qingyu interrupted her directly and said, "I will not give it to you if you want. Yi Yi, no matter who it is, Chinese, Africans, or the whole human being, poor people abound. Can it be helped? Can it be saved? Today we look at them poorly and give them a little donation. They have lived a good life for a year or two with this money, but what about in the future? For the rest of their lives? Could it be that they just sit there all the time like a Is it begging like a beggar? Expecting the occasional kindness from others, or getting donations all the time, and when others don’t donate, they think it’s wrong for those who don’t donate. In the end, it’s others who don’t donate, don’t they turn to hate those who help them? , haven’t you heard the famous joke? There was a man who gave a beggar ten dollars a day and suddenly gave five dollars one day. The beggar asked why. A slap in the face, how dare you use my money to find a girlfriend."
Ling Qingyu's voice was very low and fast, but it was enough for Yi Chengfen to hear clearly. When he heard the last sentence, he showed displeasure and said, "How can you use this joke to compare them?"
"Isn't it? Whether it's the Chinese government or other countries, how much money is given to Africa every year, and where does that money go? Don't you know better than me?" Ling Qingyu said with a slight curl of his lips.
"That's why I said, instead of giving to the government, we will directly build a relief agency and distribute food to them." Yi Chengfen said anxiously.
"Yeah, it's back to what I said just now. How long have you been sent? Decades, a lifetime? And then they live on daily relief? Do nothing?" Ling Qingyu shook his head and said, "You're saving a watch. However, for them, this is to destroy them. If a nation is used to relying on others for everything, it will lose the foundation of its own survival. There is only one way to get rid of poverty. With this awareness, if you don’t work, you will die. If you work well, you will be able to make a living. Not only can you eat and wear warm, but you can also enjoy life. Africans advocate freedom, so they must learn to find a balance between work and freedom. They can just work as long as they can eat enough to live a normal life, or they can choose to work as hard as we Chinese and end up with nothing but money.”
Speaking of the latter, Ling Qingyu smiled lightly and said: "Yi Yi, actually, I think Prime Minister Camilla is much clearer than you on this, Yi Yi, I won't help them for free, but I can provide job opportunities Give it to them, as long as they are willing to do it. A nation can only become an independent and powerful existence by standing up by its own efforts. Yiyi, anyone who expects others' charity and kindness to survive will not end well The only thing that can change them is whether they and their government can effectively formulate corresponding policies. The world is so big, but it cannot be achieved by one person, let alone the kindness of that person. "
After silently looking at Ling Qingyu for a while, Yi Chengfen sighed softly and said, "You have indeed changed."
The two of them walked in Africa together, and after seeing those scenes, they would discuss this aspect. In the past, Ling Qingyu and her had disagreements on this aspect, but they would not say it clearly and firmly like now, and when she said these words , her calm attitude and imperceptible momentum made her unable to open her mouth even if she wanted to intervene.
After thinking about it, Yi Chengfen also fully understood what she meant. After traveling in Africa for so many years, she knew Africa better than anyone else, and she also knew that Ling Qingyu was telling the truth.
The rise and fall of a nation has never been achieved by the kindness of one person.
With a slight smile, Ling Qingyu glanced at Yan San with a faint smile on his lips, and said: "Because, when I was very kind, someone reminded me at a critical moment, Shengmi is kind and Michou, and everything must be done." There is a limit, so in this negotiation, I will not give Gibbs too many concessions, we are a cooperative relationship, and only by giving can we get the corresponding return."
Seeing the bright color of her eyes which are bursting into hair on her face, Yi Chengfen sighed softly: "Qingyu, what have you experienced in the past few years?" That made you change so much, become like this attractive presence...
Blinking at her, Ling Qingyu said in a low voice: "The story is too long to tell, I will tell it later when I have time."
