The longed-for village system

Chapter 225 Establishment of a Charitable Organization
The tenth million, the 100th ten million, the 1000th one—that's a small goal! Xue Zhiqian was shocked by this number.

It's true that getting treatment early when you're sick is the right thing to do; otherwise, the medical fees later on are something most people can't afford.

"I'm actually a little grateful that I got this disease early, otherwise we would have been working for Teacher Chen Qing for the rest of our lives," Xue Zhiqian joked.

Chen Qing smiled slightly at Xue Zhiqian's words but did not answer. He had actually thought about the consultation fee. He would not be soft on those billionaire businessmen. It would be easy for him to take out 100 million to save a life when there were billions or hundreds of billions of dollars involved.

But 99% of families in China couldn't afford that amount even if they sold everything they owned. If he were to actually treat someone himself, he would definitely charge a consultation fee accordingly.

He could give away 100,000, 200,000, or even for free; he still had that much kindness in him. Although he really wanted to quickly get the chance to leave the village, he wouldn't do something like kicking someone when they're down.

"Alright, Brother Bo, that's enough! I'll take your 300,000 yuan consultation fee, and you can keep the rest! Don't make things difficult for your younger brother."

Hearing Chen Qing say this, Huang Bo didn't continue to persuade him about the consultation fee. However, he didn't intend to take back the extra money. Remembering what Huang Sanshi said about Chen Qing donating the consultation fees, he also decided to do his part in charity.

“I won’t take back the extra money. I know that you’ll most likely donate this money to charity after it goes from one pocket to another. How about this: I’ll donate the rest of the money in your name as well! It’ll be my way of doing my part for charity.”

"Alright! I'll make the arrangements."

Chen Qing naturally wouldn't refuse Huang Bo's kindness. The money was a small amount for him, but it could help many people get through difficult times. The more donations like this, the better.

After putting away the bank cards, the four went back to the room to check on Zhao Jun, who was resting. Although he had recovered a little after Chen Qing's treatment, his overall condition was still very bad.

On the way upstairs, Huang Bo made a suggestion to Chen Qing: "Xiao Chen, I personally think you can set up a charity in your name or in your younger siblings' name. This would be more beneficial to your development and the use of this donation."

Although Chen Qing's income from treating patients isn't much right now, his abilities will eventually become known to everyone. When that happens, wealthy people will obediently come to him with their money, and the total amount of that money will be incredibly staggering.

The desires and greed of the human heart are not easily tempted. You may be able to resist the temptation of 10 million or 100 million, but what about when you are faced with billions or tens of billions of dollars? Huang Bo dares to say that there are very few people in this world who can resist it.

Even if that person resists the temptation, this huge sum of money will bring him endless goodwill. Why should others benefit from this? It would be better to have the younger brother or sister-in-law set up an organization to manage the money.

“Teacher Chen Qing, I think Teacher Huang Bo’s suggestion is good. There aren’t many people seeking your treatment right now, but that number will definitely increase in the future, especially those powerful and influential people. It would be very easy for them to find out about you. If you treat patients then, your consultation fees will be enormous. It’s safer to establish your own charitable organization.”

Xue Zhiqian agreed with Huang Bo's suggestion. Having been in this circle for so many years, he knew the ins and outs. There were countless cases of donations being embezzled by so-called charitable organizations, especially since Chen Qing's donation was a continuous stream of huge sums. Xue Zhiqian dared to say that no one could resist this temptation.

Chen Qing pondered Huang Bo's suggestion, knowing what Huang Bo and Xue Zhiqian were worried about, and he understood even better that people's hearts should not be tested.

"Thank you for the reminder, Brother Bo and Teacher Xue. I will seriously consider it. Now let's go in and see Teacher Zhao Jun first!"

Chen Qing entered the room and woke up Zhao Jun, who was sleeping. He then took out his acupuncture kit and began to treat Zhao Jun. After receiving the treatment, Zhao Jun quickly fell asleep again.

"How is Teacher Chen Qing?" Huang Bo stared at Chen Qing as Xue Zhiqian asked. After a brief conversation with Zhao Jun yesterday, he learned that Zhao Jun had liver cancer and that it was in its late stage, with the hospital having issued a critical condition notice.

"Don't worry! You should see significant changes in a week at most with acupuncture and medication. I've already arranged the prescription I gave you yesterday, right?"

Chen Qing was absolutely confident in his medical skills. The key issue now was when the medicinal herbs would arrive, since they were used to regulate and strengthen his body.

"Don't worry, Teacher Chen Qing, it will be delivered by tonight at the latest. I'll need to trouble you to check if there are any problems with the herbs then," Xue Zhiqian replied truthfully.

"Okay, you can just take it to my old house then. If it's too late, I can come over tomorrow to take a look."

Chen Qing gave Xue Zhiqian some instructions, then went out of the room and downstairs to buy the snacks that Zhao Xiaogu had asked him to buy.

"Xiao Chen, please think carefully about what I just told you. If you need anything, you can contact me. I know some people in this field who can help you get expedited access."

"Okay, Brother Bo, I'll think about this seriously when I get back. I'll need your help again if I need anything."

After saying goodbye to Huang Bo, Chen Qing bought some things and drove back to the old house. That night, lying in bed, he thought about what Huang Bo had said that afternoon. He saw Zhao Xiaogu sitting up as she finished washing up.

"My wife has something she wants to discuss with you."

Chen Qing took out the bank card that Huang Bo had given him, and at the same time told Huang Bo about the suggestions he had made.

After listening to what the man said, Zhao Xiaogu pondered for a while, then nodded and said, "Honey, I think what Brother Bo said makes sense. We shouldn't have the heart to harm others, but we can't be without the heart to guard against them. It's okay if the amount of donations is small now, but if it's large, we can't guarantee it. Setting up our own organization is a good idea."

This money was all earned with great difficulty by her husband. If it was used for charity, she would have no complaints, but if it was embezzled, she would be absolutely unwilling to accept it.

Of course, she also had her own selfish motives. Why should such a good reputation benefit others? Wouldn't it be better for her own man to enjoy it all?

As a woman, she naturally wants her man to be admired and respected by everyone; isn't that what people strive for in life?

"Okay, I'll do as you say, but this charity will be registered under your name! You can arrange for someone to manage it later."

Donating money is fine, but Chen Qing doesn't plan to participate in management or organizational activities. The main reason is that conditions don't allow it, and opportunities to leave the village are hard to come by!
"Ah! Honey, why?"

"Because you're my wife! We're one now, so it's the same whether you benefit or I benefit. Besides, you'll still be active in this circle, which is better for you."
