Chapter 892: 888. How many people are just like them? (Seeking subscriptions and monthly tickets)

The effects of these things cannot be seen in the short term, but the long-term effects are quite significant.

At the very least, Mile and Daiweisi still do not have any offspring of their own to this day; one must realize they are already over fifty now.

This is also the reason why Mile and the others chose to side with Zhang Ran directly.

Having built up such a large family business, they are certainly unwilling to be without an heir.

As for those things the United States promotes, like donating all one's assets, just listen to it and don't ever take it seriously.

"I won't ask for much regarding those shares I held back then. After so many years, most of it is the result of your own hard work. Just take five percent of the shares from your respective companies as the shares for my investment back then," Zhang Ran said.

This is also what Zhang Ran deserves; five percent is not much, but for their two companies, it is not considered a small amount either.

Each company has a market value of nearly one hundred billion US dollars; five percent is roughly five billion US dollars, which is many times more than when he invested back then.

Regarding this proposal from Zhang Ran, Daiweisi and the others had not the slightest objection. They currently hold about twenty percent of their companies' shares; giving away five percent is a lot, but over these many years, they have also taken some cashed-out shares and invested in many other industries.

"Of course, within ten years, I only want the shares; the equity will still be left to you to manage the companies," Zhang Ran said with a smile, seeing the final concerns of the two.

Daiweisi immediately said, "No problem."

Mile was also very straightforward; compared to their desire to have a child, this little sacrifice was nothing at all.

Moreover, this was actually what Zhang Ran deserved.

If it weren't for the fact that Zhang Ran had disappeared for so many years, Zhang Ran would have received even more.

"Alright, since you are so forthcoming, I will not go back on my word," Zhang Ran laughed.

He then had Huo Zhiyuan bring over a bowl of medicinal soup and said, "Drink this, and your ailments will be cured."

There is no cure for Duanzi Juesun Grass; after all, they are things from inside a game, but Zhang Ran does have corresponding items, such as the Many Children Many Blessings Flower.

Consuming it can neutralize those side effects.

Looking at this bowl of medicinal soup, the two hesitated for a moment.

"What? Are you afraid I'm going to harm you?" Zhang Ran said with a half-smile.

Daiweisi shook his head and said, "No, I still trust Mr. Zhang on this point. Besides, Mr. Zhang harming us now would only bring trouble upon himself without gaining any benefit; there is simply no need for you to do this."

Daiweisi still believed in this, and Zhang Ran had never given anyone cause for criticism in this regard.

Mile was the same; he took a deep breath and then drank it straight down, though the medicinal soup was so hot that he was scalded for a moment.

But even so, they still dared not spit it out.

After they finished drinking, Zhang Ran looked at them and said slowly, "You can rest easy, and don't be afraid that you're too old to reproduce. I can't guarantee anything else, but at the very least, these next two years will be when your fertility is at its strongest. Within two years, as long as you put in a little effort, you will definitely have results."

These words from Zhang Ran made Mile and the others feel much more relaxed immediately; this was also what they had been worrying about all along.

They were just afraid that even if the illness was cured, they would have no fertility due to their age.

However, the two felt increasingly in awe of Zhang Ran's methods. Of course, the main thing was that they didn't know how many other people were just like them.

In the nearly thirty years that Zhang Ran disappeared, it was precisely one of the periods when many people with ordinary family backgrounds rose the fastest.

Who knew who else was a secret piece Zhang Ran had placed originally?

"Mr. Zhang, if there is an opportunity, I hope we can still cooperate," Daiweisi said, calming his excited mood.

This was not just polite talk, but his true feelings.

"There will certainly be opportunities," Zhang Ran laughed.

Zhang Ran then chatted with them for a while longer before sending them off. At the door, Zhang Ran couldn't help but remind them, "Oh, the medicine will take two days to take effect, so just rest well for these two days."

He was truly afraid that these two would be too impulsive in these two days and then fail.

After all, their age was a factor, and then it would really be impossible to blame Zhang Ran.

After the two left, Huo Zhiyuan walked over and said, "Brother Zhang, what is going on with them?"

Huo Zhiyuan didn't know what had happened either; Zhang Ran had just suddenly taken out a flower and asked her to boil it into a bowl of soup, adding some nourishing Chinese medicine on the side.

During this period, only He Yong watched, and at the same time, He Yong was exceptionally vigilant, not allowing others to approach, not even letting his own daughter get close.

This made Huo Zhiyuan suddenly realize that she was truly touching Zhang Ran's core, and she couldn't help but feel a bit sweet inside.

Zhang Ran laughed, "It's nothing, just a chess piece I placed casually back then. Now that it has grown up, I'm just making use of it."

After finishing, he sighed, "But after so many years, they are no longer chess pieces; they have all grown into chess players."

This is also the downside of disappearing for so long; these people had long since broken free from his control. It was only because Zhang Ran was cautious back then, coupled with the special effect of his golden finger, otherwise it would be truly difficult for him to control them now.

However, Zhang Ran didn't lose out either, since he only invested some money and spoke a little about his philosophy back then.

Now, five percent of the shares from each company can be considered a huge profit.

Huo Zhiyuan nodded, seemingly understanding yet not quite.

"By the way, whenever you have time, go help me collect the five percent of shares from each of their companies," Zhang Ran said.

This was to find something for Huo Zhiyuan to do; she couldn't really be this idle every day.

"Alright, small matter." Huo Zhiyuan felt no pressure at all regarding this small task.

Plus, since this was a task Zhang Ran had entrusted to her, Huo Zhiyuan was very motivated, and that very evening she began organizing some of Zhang Ran's personnel.

However, Huo Zhiyuan was not in a hurry to go; that side also needed some time to verify things, at the very least, a physical examination was required.

Only when that side provided confirmed news would this handover be completed smoothly.

As for going back on their word?

Zhang Ran believed that neither Daiweisi nor Mile would dare to have such thoughts.

By the time Zhang Ran was about to sleep, the two little ones suddenly made a video call. In the video, both little ones had bitter little expressions, especially Susu, with a trace of tears hanging in her bright, large eyes.

Zhang Ran asked with some heartache, only to find out that this was because they had been spanked by Zhang Siyan. Clearly, they had truly angered Zhang Siyan, otherwise she would never have had the heart to hit Susu.
