Chapter 209: Chapter 209 Xiao Li Talks About Money Matters

After chatting for a while, Xiao Li looked at Ji Yang and said, "All these achievements are the result of your help. Without the twenty million your mother invested, we probably couldn’t have continued."

When this was brought up, Ji Yang also felt some headache. Initially, he wanted to invest in his mother’s name, but later planned to invest in the name of the Wu Family Sisters.

However, during the process, all of the Wu Family Sisters’ money was poured into the project. Even if it was invested through his mother, he still needed to transfer money from the stock market, and then transfer funds from his mother to the battery factory. This operation still indicated it was his investment. After consideration, Ji Yang simply transferred his own money directly from the stock market to the battery factory, and now it was registered under his mother’s investment.

"Factory Director Xiao, you know the situation. The money is said to be my mother’s investment, but in fact, it’s still mine. I’m just afraid of an audit from the disciplinary committee. Now that you have developed all the necessary technology and can probably secure the funds, you don’t lack that twenty million anymore. You can return the money, and let’s just say I lent it to you for your research."

Xiao Li looked at Ji Yang and said, "Chief Ji, are you sure about this? If the battery factory turns a profit, it wouldn’t be a small amount of money." As she spoke, she stared intently at Ji Yang.

"I never thought about making money from this. I didn’t have anywhere to spend my money in the stock market anyway. I just saw you all struggling and never thought about earning money from it."

Xiao Li’s eyes became moist. Back then, she didn’t want to rely on her family and was holding on by herself here. It had come to the final stage, and if it weren’t for Ji Yang’s support, she probably would have had to seek help from her family in the end. Unexpectedly, Ji Yang extended a helping hand, leading to today’s success, which enabled her to stand tall in her family. For her, this was a tremendous act of kindness.

Now hearing Ji Yang say that he had no intentions and wasn’t looking to make a profit, her feelings of gratitude were beyond words.

"Chief Ji, although I really like your decision, I can’t do this. There won’t be any problem with the shares. Even if the money came from the stock market, it was ultimately under your mother’s investment. If there’s profit, it won’t be a problem. I know you’re worried about being audited by your superiors. Leave this matter to me; I’ll handle all the details properly."

Looking at him, Ji Yang thought to himself that she was indeed not simple, to be so confident in assuring such a matter.

Ji Yang also wanted to see how she would handle it, so he said nothing further.

Xiao Li then smiled and said, "Chief Ji, you really don’t need to worry about these things. You may not know, but in Capital City, those major families all have business people, and many leaders actually have their own businesses. It’s just that in the future, you can use nominees; there’s no need to borrow a family member’s name. Let me tell you, some shareholders use just another identity card, and it’s still theirs."

In the following time, Xiao Li informed Ji Yang about the methods used by many important figures, which greatly opened his eyes.

"You really know everything, huh!"

Xiao Li laughed and said, "You probably have guessed some of my situation. I won’t hide it from you; my family in Capital City is quite influential. With me helping you, I can ensure there won’t be any problems."

"Then I’ll leave it to you."

Since they both spoke openly, Ji Yang was no longer concerned.

Seeing Ji Yang’s attitude, a smile appeared on Xiao Li’s face. Her thoughts about Chief Ji were complex. Looking at him, she saw a handsome face, which she also liked. She didn’t know why, but she just felt like helping Ji Yang.

Xiao Li said, "Although the directives from above forbid this kind of business dealing, it’s really just aimed at those below. Many people above haven’t been greatly affected. There’s policy above and countermeasures below. If someone audits you, it just means that your authority has not reached a certain level yet."

Ji Yang shook his head and said, "I don’t even dare to think about that kind of power, so yes, I’m still afraid."

Xiao Li let out a laugh, then said, "Don’t worry, I can really take care of this for you. In the future, don’t say it was your mother; use a new identity card, and no one will know it’s you."

"But I still can’t do that. It’s like I would never be able to use that money."

"Do you even lack money to use?"

Ji Yang was taken aback by the question. Indeed, now everything was covered by the state, he truly had no need for his own money, except for some minor expenses.

"As a government official, all your expenses are covered by the state; in fact, there aren’t many places where you can really use your own money. Keep that money as a backup plan or a channel for helping someone if you wish. Hmph, some men support many women and children outside, and that money becomes their source of funds."

Looking at Xiao Li, Ji Yang felt that her family probably operated in just such a manner.

This opened a door for Ji Yang, as he suddenly discovered there was much room for maneuver.
