Chapter 735

Yang Qing did not say such an idea, because it lacked any persuasiveness.

Instead, he turned the question back on them.

"If we don't help the elderly, will our morality just slip away?"

"Like you, imagine: would you abandon your own morality over this matter?"

"As for others, you can imagine this: you are a husband, your family still has many people Raising Children, even your child is in the hospital, hoping your salary will save them."

"Or you have a big family, with monthly mortgage, car loan, children's education—pressure is huge."

"At this moment, an elderly person falls."

"Will you go help or not?"

"Helping, I say, what if—what if he extorts you, and he's set up a trap, with all his people around as witnesses—what would you do? Is this being responsible to your family?"

"If because of this you can't pay the mortgage, can't pay the car loan, the children's education is also affected, and your wife can't bear the pressure and divorces you."

"Your life would plunge into hell because of this."

"Will you still help or not?"

"Does not helping mean he's immoral?"

"Must only one person go help?"

"Can't we find a group of witnesses to cooperate in rescuing?"

"Can't we find a few witnesses, then call the police to handle it?"

"Wouldn't that work?"

"Such a judgment warns us: we cannot lack vigilance toward people."

"People may appear cold, but they will move toward a more reasonable direction."

"Overly simple kindness should not be a quality an adult possesses."

"Making kindness and morality a bit more rational is also not bad."

"What truly causes morality to slip is indifference, aversion to trouble—these people, even without this incident, would not help."

"Those who are truly kind at heart will always find a way to do good."

"This might be a test of our morality."

The three women were not taken in by Yang Qing's words.

Still, they felt uneasy inside.

Letting good people get hurt will inevitably chill the hearts of countless people.

What they want to protect is precisely these kind hearts.

Harming such people is something they cannot accept.

The elderly lady, too, idle with nothing to do, upon encountering such a thing, couldn't sleep for days.

They felt they should do something, rather than just dance, go shopping, and play mahjong every day.

Their lives should be more meaningful.

Yang Qing, you curse and beat people every day, playing to your heart's content.

They also want to find something of their own to do.

"We don't care; anyway, this matter can't just be left like that."

"Where is the principle that lets good people get hurt? You have many ideas—you must find a way."

What the hell can I do?

Sacrificing his happiness for the welfare of millions—he died deservedly.

But these three women refuse to give up, alternating between gentle coaxing and threats of violence.

Yang Qing was worn out by their torment.

He came up with a solution that wasn't really a solution for them.

Yang Qing rubbed his bruised eye sockets.

"I said beforehand, I don't even know if this method will work."

"But spending money is real spending; it's still that kind of worthless investment."

Yang Qing sighed inwardly, just treating it as a redistribution of social wealth.

"First, you go apply to establish a company."

"It must have insurance qualifications."

"Only do one thing."

"Sell insurance for righteous endeavors."

"This company must not only provide insurance services, but also legal support."

"How exactly to operate, you figure it out—after all, it's a money-losing business."

"It all depends on conscience."

"The second thing is to establish a charitable foundation."

"Righteous Endeavor Assistance Foundation."

"For those who suffer property loss and livelihood difficulties due to righteous endeavors, give help."

"Doing this, you'll likely also need to establish a detective agency."

"In these days, insurance fraudsters are endless."

"Confirming whether something is righteous is a complex, professional task with enormous workload."

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

"With over a billion people nationwide, righteous deeds could happen every day."

I estimate that using up your own little treasury would take just a year or two.

A year or two?

We have to spend that much?

Chen Xueru calculated her own little treasury; aside from what she needs to leave for her son, the rest comes to about 10 billion.

Chen Hong also did a rough mental calculation: aside from the income of the Supreme Ultimate Hall, plus her son's filial contributions, and the wealth management she entrusted to Yang Qing, she herself has at least over 30 billion.

Qin Huairu's little treasury is the smallest, and she feels the most reluctant to part with it.

However, Yang Qing hasn't shortchanged her either; what he should give hasn't been less, and with his help managing her finances, it's nearly 30 billion.

In other words, doing this would require several hundred billion over a few years?

Qin Huairu feels the cost is a bit high.

What Yang Qing said is quite right; this might actually be more beneficial than harmful.

Sacrificing his happiness for ten thousand families.

As for morality, the authorities are absolutely more anxious about this than they are.

This is the case of 'the emperor is not anxious, but the eunuch is.'

She wants to withdraw, but Chen Hong and Chen Xueru certainly disagree.

"Anyway, we wouldn't use this money ourselves."

"We'll just treat it as poverty relief; besides, the recipients are good people."

"It's far more meaningful than keeping it in our hands."

Chen Hong is feeling magnanimous; the little old lady feels she has found her place to shine and contribute.

Yang Qing is so rich; let's make him go bankrupt.

Yang Qing still doesn't know; this woman has already set her sights on him.

Chen Xueru did a quick mental calculation and then chuckled.

"Old man, you say we're losing money because you think there aren't many truly conscientious people in Daxia."

"We're betting that people with sentiment and conscience are the majority in this world."

"If everyone contributes a little love, we could collect one dollar per person per month—several billion a month, over a hundred billion a year."

"Adding our own money, we don't believe we can't make it work."

"Don't underestimate us women; we're more adept at this kind of thing than you men."

"We will scrutinize every penny strictly."

"The government will review it once, we will review it once, and then we'll sign a century-long liability and compensation agreement."

"I just don't believe there are that many conscienceless people."

Chen Hong also chimed in from the side.

"We'll also open a reporting channel, and we can reward informers with one-tenth of the funds."

"We've decided to do this."

Afterward, the two turned their gaze to Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu felt ill at ease under the stares of the two.

"Well, that is, we just don't believe it………"

Seeing her look of reluctance, Chen Xueru moved closer.

"Even if we lose out, we'll have Yang Qing compensate us later."

"Anyway, we won't suffer a loss."

Qin Huairu's eyes lit up, and her voice grew louder.

"That's right—sisters united in purpose, their profit cuts through gold."

"Don't look down on us."

"We can definitely trample evil underfoot."

Yang Qing was speechless.

Is this about raising all Daxia people into hothouse flowers?

Since ancient times, kindness does not command armies; pure goodness alone cannot solve any problems.

Yang Qing still feels that rational kindness is true kindness.

He couldn't help reminding them.

"I think you should not only assist justice, but also promote to everyone how to use their kindness properly."

"A person who can't swim jumping into the water to save someone? That's kind, but it's foolish."

"If someone is being beaten by a crowd, and you go to break it up—what's the difference from suicide?"

"If someone needs a kidney transplant and you sacrifice your own future to donate a kidney, the kindness is momentary, the regret lifelong."

"I personally oppose all organ transplants."

"Therefore, I oppose any form of organ transplant."

"There are many more cases; kindness is fine, but please use the right methods."

"Rewarding just kindness is less meaningful than teaching people how to be rationally just and kind."
