Chapter 155 Loyalty, Doing Everything Possible

“Teacher Zuo, everything is fine at home, please don’t worry. I just wanted to ask Uncle Zuo about the government bonds,” Ting Nan hurriedly explained.

"That's good, that's good. State Council! You know about it too? Wait, I'll have Hongxue tell you. He's indignant about it."

Du Hongxue took the phone and chatted with Song Tingnan and Mu Xudong for a long time, explaining the new thing clearly and sharing some of his own thoughts. Mu Xudong listened and nodded, saying he would discuss it with his family and then contact him again.

After hanging up the phone, Mu Xudong immediately started contacting relatives, friends, and business partners, feeling that this was a good opportunity to serve the country and invest.

In the afternoon, when Tingnan came home from school, the house was filled with smoke, and several smokers had gathered there. Gao Haoran had also come over.

Jiang Qianqian was busy in the kitchen when Ting Nan put down her schoolbag and came in to help.

"Godmother, my godfather has such a wide network of connections!"

"Yes, he is usually generous and loyal, so he has many friends. They are all people who got rich first and have some money. When they heard about the government bonds, they all wanted to come and chat and brainstorm ideas."

"Yes, birds of a feather flock together. They're just as great as my godfather!"

"You have such a sweet tongue. Your godfather is an ambitious and responsible man. I support whatever he wants to do."

"Godmother, you're amazing too, such a wonderful wife!"

"Hehe, thank you for the compliment, Ting Nan! We'll keep up the good work!"

While selecting vegetables, Song Tingnan listened attentively to the conversation in the hall.

"Can these government bonds only be purchased from banks? Can I buy them even if I don't work for a state-owned enterprise?"

"Yes, you can buy it through a bank. It hasn't been implemented in our county yet. Every adult can buy it, it doesn't matter if it's not a state-owned enterprise."

Is this reliable? How long will it take to cash out?

"Two years or three years is fine."

"Xudong, is that interest rate really that much higher?"

"I've calculated it, and the interest is much higher than that of depositing money in a bank, plus there's no interest tax to pay."

"Really? That's great! High interest rates and no risk. What do you think, Master Gao?"

Ting Nan listened attentively, also wanting to know what her master was thinking.

Gao Haoran did not answer directly, but asked Mu Xudong: "Director Mu, you have learned about this in detail from Hongxue, what is the reason for the issuance of these government bonds?"

"Du Hongxue's theory was aimed at adjusting and stabilizing the national economy, concentrating financial resources on socialist modernization, and gradually improving the people's material and cultural living standards. Simply put, it was about borrowing money from the people to carry out construction."

“Well, broadly speaking, buying government bonds is supporting national development! On a smaller scale, it’s like saving money and earning extra interest.” Gao Haoran’s voice came through: “Buy! I support this policy that benefits the country and its people. We were born under the red flag, so naturally we trust our motherland. Past experience tells us that only when the country is prosperous and strong can the nation have hope and we be able to live a good life.”

“Master Gao is right, let’s buy it! Without the Communist Party, there would be no new China. Now that the country needs help, we should do our best.”

"Okay! Master Gao buys it, I'll buy it too!"

"Great! I'll buy it too! I support our country!"

"Yes, I'll buy it too. I'm going all in. Let's just pretend we haven't saved any money in the past few years."

"Yes, when the country is in trouble, we must do our best!"

"Director Mu, you just said we can't buy it here? Where can we buy it then?"

Mu Xudong replied, "As far as I know, there are only a few cities: Yangcheng, Shanghai, Qingxin..."

"So we have to bring cash to buy it outside? Is that safe?"

"Yes, it's a long journey. I wonder if carrying money will lead to robbers or pickpockets; the train can be quite chaotic..."
