Doomsday Code

Chapter 537 Ideas for Establishing a Foundation

When Holmes went out, he ran into Chen Cheng.

When Chen Cheng saw Holmes, he greeted him:

"Hello, Prime Minister. It's so late, why don't you stay for dinner before leaving?"

When Holmes heard his words that showed he was not an outsider at all, the corners of his mouth twitched, and then he took a few steps forward and said:

"My friend, please be careful. Your Highness is now the Crown Prince. If you continue to behave so unrestrainedly, that will be unacceptable."

As a person who has been through this, Holmes is giving Chen Cheng some advice. After all, there is a difference between the ruler and his subjects. If they get too close, they will eventually be feared and retaliated against.

Chen Cheng naturally understood what Holmes meant.

"I'll take this as your advice, Prime Minister. I thank you for your advice, but there's nothing I can do. I'm used to being unruly and I can't change it all at once."

Thinking of Chen Cheng's attitude towards King Moss XIII in the royal palace bedroom, what else could Holmes say?

He bowed and then strode away.

Looking at Holmes's back as he walked away, Huidun called out from behind:

"Brown, you've arrived just in time. The Prime Minister has already drawn up the charter. Please help me with the consultation and see if there are any areas that need revision."

Chen Cheng agreed, then turned and walked in.

Holmes, who was far away, also heard Huidun's cry. The expression on his face changed for a while, and then he could only sigh.

Inside the room, the two of them discussed calmly for a while, and soon the sounds of their argument were heard.

After finalizing the rules during the debate, Huidun rubbed his temples.

"You're still so fierce, you don't even know how to give in to me."

"Don't be so ambiguous. You asked me to come and give you advice, so of course I'm going to argue with you. And what you said makes sense, and I didn't refute anything."

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. It's getting late, let's eat."

Soon dinner was served by the servants, and Chen Cheng looked at the dishes on the table and asked curiously:

"What happened today? Did the Prince's Mansion go bankrupt? Why are there so many dishes missing?"

And Huidun said unhappily:

"You have a stinky mouth, it's okay to talk nonsense in front of me, but don't talk nonsense like that outside."

Then Huidun put down his bowl and chopsticks and sighed heavily:

"I went down with you and met so many people today, and you said that I came back and asked someone to set up such a grand table for the sake of so-called status. How cold-blooded must I be."

Huidun hesitated for a while, then said:

"Didn't you mention starting a welfare organization before? I'd like to invest 5% of my bank shares into this to set up a special fund for disaster relief and poverty alleviation. What do you think?"

Huidun asked Chen Cheng because he didn't know whether taking out 5% of the profit would have any impact on the bank's operations.

Don't underestimate 5%. He is already the prince, and there will be no political obstacles to the future development of this bank.

The profits that a financial monopoly company like his can generate every year are astronomical.

When Chen Cheng heard this, he put down his bowl and chopsticks, thought for a while and said:

"It's a good idea for you to do so, and taking 5% won't be a big deal; on the contrary, it can boost the bank's image and credibility among the public.

But have you ever thought about who to send to take care of it, and how to ensure that the money will be used for those who need it?

There are a lot of things involved, and if they are not planned well, good things will turn into bad things.

And if this is really accomplished, then in the future, situations such as local officials and nobles embezzling disaster relief supplies will be greatly reduced.

So you have to plan before you do this.”

Huidun nodded after hearing this and said:

"That's not a problem. Don't forget that I'm the crown prince now, and the talent resources I can mobilize are incomparable to before.

At the same time, in terms of supervision, we can use the bank's system for supplies. As for disaster situations, I want it to connect cities across the country."

"This way, when a disaster occurs, there will be two sets of cross-assessment reports, which will also be beneficial for disaster relief decisions."

Huidun also learned a lot from Chen Cheng and quickly came up with a feasible solution.

Chen Cheng nodded and said:

"Okay, then. I'll work overtime tonight and give you a rough outline. You can find other people to complete the rest."

Chen Cheng was also thinking about the management of the famous charitable organizations he knew in his previous life, which could serve as a reference for them.

At this moment, Chen Cheng finally discovered the change in the situation. In the past, Huidun had only so many talented people under his command, and Chen Cheng had to work hard for Huidun in many things.

But now it’s different. Huidun is the crown prince, and the talent resources he can mobilize are unimaginable in the past.

All you need to do is provide some outlines and many details, and these talents will perfect them themselves.

Thinking of this, Chen Cheng thought it was time to put forward his future plans.

He had never thought of being Huidun's counselor for the rest of his life, or becoming an official.

His current identity is still a big threat, and with the previous crisis in the royal capital, the risk of his identity being exposed has approached 100%.

He is now undoubtedly the hottest rising star in the entire political gossip circle of the royal capital, except for the new crown prince Huidun.

A lot of people's attention was on him, and he didn't believe that these people would not spare no effort to check his identity.

However, his identity and actions could not withstand investigation at all. The only thing to be thankful for was that Captain Scorpion of the Scorpion Slave-Catching Team who had previously arrested him had been secretly killed by Kekeber.

But this is only temporary. There were many people present when he was arrested. As long as you investigate carefully, you will always find clues.

And considering my conspicuous age, anyone with the ability to make bold associations would definitely be able to guess my identity.

Moreover, his identity had been exposed before. Not to mention the potion master Filion and Sheli beside him, his identity had been exposed in front of Justin at the Western Provincial Academy Competition.

Although no one saw it, and Justin joined the military afterwards, who knows if there were ears at the time? It's hard to say for sure.

So after Chen Cheng put down his bowl and chopsticks, he hesitated for a while, and then said:

"Your Highness, you are now the crown prince, right? You are the future heir to the kingdom, right?"

Chen Cheng has been getting along with Hui Dun for nearly a year. It can be said that the two of them met at a young age and built up trust bit by bit, which led to what they have today.

So if he was asked to just say he wanted to leave, he would find it difficult to bring himself to do so.

Huidun was no longer in the mood to eat at this time. He also realized that Chen Cheng wanted to leave.

So he didn't answer, but looked at Chen Cheng and made a promise:

"Brown, just say whatever you want. If it's something I can satisfy, I will definitely satisfy it. Even if it means becoming prime minister, once I ascend the throne, you will be the prime minister second only to the emperor."
