The Greatest Village Doctor In The World

Chapter 376: Seeking Help from Wang Laogen

Du Lanlan’s illness had healed, so there was no need for her to stay at Mo Jiaolan’s place anymore.

Everyone packed up their things, and Du Song intended to carry his sister downstairs, but she refused, insisting on going down by herself, so everyone reluctantly agreed.

The young girl seemed to have not moved around for a long time. Although her steps were unsteady, she was very happy. Seeing her like this made everyone feel very relieved.

As they all carried their belongings downstairs to the parking lot, Du Song’s eyes suddenly bulged in disbelief.

Then he incredulously turned back to look at Ling Feng, "Boss, is this car yours?"

"Yeah, the chief has agreed to give it to me!" Ling Feng chuckled.

Du Song: "..."

Despite feeling disgruntled, he was truly impressed deep down, so he could only sigh and say, "Alright, the boss is still mighty!"

"Okay then, don’t you like it? You can drive it on the way home!" Ling Feng said with a smile.

"Really?"

Du Song immediately turned his sulky expression into one of surprised excitement, his eyes wide with joy!

"Nonsense, put the things in the car, here are the keys!" Ling Feng tossed the keys over.

After dropping off the family of three at their home, Ling Feng drove He Bing back to Longyuan and took Lin Xue to pick up her car.

Before getting out of the car, Lin Xue looked at Ling Feng, "Are you not going back to the village tonight?"

"Not necessarily, I want to talk to Old Wang about something. It depends on how late it is," Ling Feng said.

"Well then, I’ll head back first," Lin Xue nodded.

As she was about to leave, Ling Feng grabbed her hand, "Now that we’re like this, why don’t you come to my place after work?"

"No way!"

Lin Xue’s face turned red, "It’s inconvenient at your house!"

"Then, should I come to your dormitory?" Ling Feng thought for a moment and then asked.

"Aren’t you afraid of my brother?" Lin Xue glanced at him.

Ling Feng was at a loss for words, then his eyes twinkled, "No problem, I can climb through the window without him noticing!"

"Stop fooling around, what would we do if something happened? We’ll talk about it later, I’m leaving!"

Lin Xue gave him a glare, pushed the car door open, and got out.

After that, she got into her own car and left without looking back, leaving Ling Feng sitting there feeling somewhat wistful.

After a while, he drove back to the hotel and went straight to Mo Jiaolan’s office.

It was now the afternoon rest time, the lunchtime rush was over, and the staff could also take a break.

But Mo Jiaolan was not idling, she was bent over writing something. Seeing Ling Feng come in, she smiled, "All done?"

"Yeah, what are you busy with?" Ling Feng asked.

"Nothing much, just calculating how much money I have now."

"Huh?"

Ling Feng was taken aback for a moment and quickly approached, only to see a bunch of numbers listed on a piece of paper, which made his head spin.

"What do you need to calculate that for?"

Mo Jiaolan looked up at him, "Didn’t you say you wanted to make some changes? I thought about it, and the best way is to establish a foundation to help those who can’t afford treatment!"

Ling Feng felt touched by her words and immediately grabbed her hand, "You are really kind..."

Mo Jiaolan smiled slightly, "Stop being so cheesy. As much as I want to, this amount of money is simply not enough!"

"I have several million now. If we add it all up, that should be enough, right?" Ling Feng asked.

Mo Jiaolan still shook her head, "To operate sustainably, it requires at least several hundred million in funds. The gap is too large!"

"No way, does it really take that much?" Ling Feng was astonished.

"My idea is different from others. These days, many charity funds operate by taking donations from others, but this can easily draw criticism. After all, there are all kinds of people, and I don’t want to face constant skepticism from the outside world."

Ling Feng: "So your idea is to pool our own money?"

"Right. As long as we gather enough money to operate and use the returns to help those in need. But there’s a downside: as the demand increases, the amount of principal also has to increase, which means we need a lot of professionals to help manage it."

Mo Jiaolan’s brows were tightly furrowed, her arguments convincing and meticulously thought out.

Seeing her like this, Ling Feng couldn’t help but feel a bit of heartache. He reached out and pulled her into his arms, letting her lean her head on his chest, "Stop thinking about it. Let’s just leave the headache-inducing stuff to Wang Laogen. Let the old man figure it out for us!"

Mo Jiaolan let out a laugh, "You’ve got some nerve. Why would he do it for us?"

"Hehe, no matter why, believe it or not, if I call him, he’ll definitely agree to help!" Ling Feng laughed.

"I don’t believe it. It might work for small favors, but this is a big deal!" Mo Jiaolan shook her head.

"Just watch!"

Ling Feng smiled and dialed Wang Laogen’s number.

Once the call connected, Ling Feng switched to speakerphone, and the old man’s lazy voice echoed through the room, "Looking for me? What’s up?"

"Can’t I look for you if there’s nothing? It’s been a long time, how about dinner together?" Ling Feng asked.

There was a pause on Wang Laogen’s end before he chuckled, "Speak straight, why evade the issue? When have you ever treated me to dinner?"

Ling Feng grinned, realizing he had indeed never done so, "Haven’t before, but why not make up for it all today?"

"Okay then, my body hasn’t been great lately. Let’s have some medicinal cuisine at Miss Mo’s, need to nourish myself properly!" Wang Laogen said.

Ling Feng laughed, "No problem, I’ll get some replenishing pills ready for you right away!"

"Keep them for yourself. You need them more than I do, heh heh!"

Wang Laogen’s laugh was sly, causing Mo Jiaolan to blush and turn to glare at Ling Feng.

Ling Feng was helpless and just hung up, then looked at her innocently, "He said it, why glare at me?"

"Nothing, both of you, old and young, are pretty slick!" Mo Jiaolan said, annoyed.

By evening, Wang Laogen strolled into the hotel and headed straight for the private room on the third floor.

Seeing Ling Feng and Mo Jiaolan there, the old man chuckled, "What’s the occasion today? Miss Mo is keeping us company. Isn’t the hotel busy?"

"No matter how busy we are, we have to make time for you, right?" Ling Feng said with a smile.

Immediately, Wang Laogen’s face turned wary, "By that tone, Ling Feng, you want me to run errands again, eh? Did Miss Mo encounter a problem?"

"Not her, it’s me."

Ling Feng smiled and shared their plans and ideas with Wang Laogen.

Wang Laogen hadn’t interrupted and listened with a furrowed brow until the end, then smacked his lips, "Self-funded charity is virtually impossible, you’re thinking too simply, it’s not something that can be solved with just a few hundred million. You’d need at least ten billion to start!"

Ling Feng was startled, showing a face of disappointment, "Does that mean we can’t do it?"

Wang Laogen glanced at him, "Not that it can’t be done, just that you’ve got the direction wrong!"

"Oh? I’d like to hear the details!" Ling Feng immediately perked up.

However, Wang Laogen chuckled and glanced at the table, "There’s not even any tea, I’m a bit thirsty..."

Ling Feng rolled his eyes and called out quickly, "Waiter, tea please, the best and most expensive!"
