I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property

"Can't you be a bit more creative?" Zhang Menglong lamented, "A mere hundred million scares you like this? Learn from your dad, this hundred million is just a small target for him!"

"Heh!" Wang Jian, not offended by Zhang Menglong's teasing, replied, "But really, gaming is indeed a highly profitable industry. I heard that during the work suspension period due to the pandemic this year, a single skin priced at 288 in one of Tengxun's games made over a hundred million in just one campaign!"

Wang Jian paused for a moment, "I think Menglong's plan is feasible, by expanding the influence of esports to uncover more business opportunities. However, I suggest not going for quantity over quality in games, just focus on those that are internationally recognized and have already gained popularity worldwide and feature world-class competitions!"

"Hmm!" Zhang Menglong nodded. Those niche games with small audience bases, even if gathered, wouldn't make much sense; a championship reward of a hundred million, with hardly any players, wouldn't that all just be a loss?@@novelbin@@

Naturally, Zhang Menglong wasn't worried about these losses. What he cared about was how much influence he could gain, and whether there was a chance to show off more, which was the most important thing.

...

Wang Jian was indeed very interested in Zhang Menglong's way of thinking. The two talked for several hours and ended up neglecting Wang Ling, who felt like just a prop!

"Man, I put on quite a show this afternoon!" After they left, Zhang Menglong realized he had gained 20 more Cred Points. It seemed that those investment-like prodigal acts of his had indeed intimidated Wang Ling and his son.

"Principal, with this pace of collecting Cred Points, I'm afraid you won't unlock many teachers in a year!" At that time, Gou Dan's voice rang in Zhang Menglong's ear.

"What can I do, you think showing off is easy?" Zhang Menglong said bitterly, "Do you think it's easy for me to even get a little Cred Points every day?"

"Okay then!"

"Okay then?" Zhang Menglong was puzzled, "What do you mean by that?"

"Per the settings of the previous principal, initiating Cred Points exchange mode!"

"Cred Points exchange mode? What's that?" Zhang Menglong asked.

"As long as you spend money, the money you use can be converted into Cred Points at a certain ratio! Every hundred million US Dollars used can be transformed into one Cred Point!"

"Holy shit!" Zhang Menglong perked up, "Really? So if I just spend a hundred billion US Dollars, I could unlock a teacher or copy a skill from them?"

"But just like before, there are strict restrictions on the type of expenses you make," Gou Dan said, "The amount you donate each month cannot exceed a hundred billion US Dollars, and pure investment in scientific research projects also cannot exceed a hundred billion US Dollars per month!"

"Damn, here we go again?"

"Please unlock more teachers quickly, Principal. Once the number of teachers at Super God Academy exceeds ten, the academy can unlock new features too!"

"New features?" Super God Academy had already given Zhang Menglong a lot of surprises, could these new features bring even more?

...

"Are you guys done talking?" Lu Yiyao, who had been practicing singing in the room, heard the quiet outside and came out.

"Yes, we've finished," Zhang Menglong said, "We discussed plans for after New Year."

"Where are we spending New Year's this year?" Lu Yiyao asked. Since breaking ties with her father, she had never really celebrated New Year's.

"Let's go to my hometown!" Zhang Menglong had already planned, "Even though my parents went to travel around the world, I still have many classmates and friends back home. I'm sure they will all like you very much."

"Yes, sure!" Lu Yiyao nodded, showing a happy smile. In previous years she only had group video calls with her roommates for comfort, she had long forgotten what New Year's truly felt like.

Zhang Menglong also gave Hong Yi a half-month holiday and took Lu Yiyao back to his hometown, that city surrounded by the sea in the southeastern region of Jiangzhe.

Rather than flying, Zhang Menglong chose to drive in order to show Lu Yiyao the scenery along the way. Fortunately, they did not travel during the Spring Festival rush; otherwise, they might have had to endure the agony of holding their pee on the highway again.

"What do you think, isn't it beautiful?" Zhang Menglong earnestly drove the Lamborghini SUV, which, despite being one of the cheapest cars in his collection, looked extremely eye-catching on the highway.

"Yes, it really is nice, worthy of being called 'Land of Seas and Buddhas'!" Lu Yiyao continually nodded as she looked at the scenery outside the window. This was her first visit to this city, and upon reflection, she realized she hadn't even seen the sea before!

"Hahaha, I'll find a boat and take you to experience what it means to 'ride the waves' soon!"

As he spoke, the car exited the highway and entered into the urban area of Dongji City.

"Damn!" Zhang Menglong suddenly shuddered at an intersection when a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties suddenly ran out in front of him. Fortunately, Zhang Menglong reacted quickly and avoided hitting him directly.

"Good grief!" Zhang Menglong's heart pounded. "Everything about this place is great, except for the quality of the people, which really can't compete with a big city like Jiangnan City!"

"Menglong, look at that person..."

"Huh?" Zhang Menglong's gaze returned to the front, only to see the middle-aged man give them a meaningful look before collapsing right there!

"Ouch!" He clutched his chest and actually started groaning as he lay down at the intersection.

"Dad, you okay, Dad?" A moment later, a young man in his early twenties rushed over from the roadside.

"Damn!" Zhang Menglong and Lu Yiyao exchanged glances, "We've encountered a scammer!"

Zhang Menglong couldn't help but feel both amused and annoyed. What was this all about?

"Your car doesn't seem to have a dash cam installed!" Lu Yiyao suddenly realized why the middle-aged man had made that expression earlier.

"This intersection also doesn't seem to have any cameras," Lu Yiyao looked around, "This is going to be troublesome. It would be hard to explain if this really escalated!"

The middle-aged man's voice grew louder and louder, attracting many passersby to the intersection, and more and more people gathered around, soon surrounding the area.

"What's going on? Hit someone and not even getting out of the car?"

"A Jiangnan City license plate, a Lamborghini, huh? I heard this car costs at least a few million!"

"Damn, being rich really is something, huh? Just because we're from a smaller place like Dongji City doesn't mean we're less human, right? Do people from Jiangnan City feel that superior?"

"Hey, get out of the car!"

"You hit someone and you're still not coming out? Do you have no morals?"

"Still not coming out? We've already called the police!"

As the clamor outside grew louder, Zhang Menglong gave a wry smile and finally opened the car door.

"You're so young? Must be a rich second generation from Jiangnan City on a trip, huh?"

"Hey, didn't you see the man you hit can't even get up? How did your family raise you? You think having money means you can do whatever you want?"

"Exactly! Bullying us folks from the countryside, is that it?"

"Everyone, I did not hit him; he fell down on his own," Zhang Menglong explained, forcefully suppressing his anger.

"It was him, he was the one who hit him! Sss! Ouch…" The middle-aged man on the ground, grimacing in apparent great pain, seemed to be enduring a lot.

"The man is in this condition, and you dare say you didn't hit him?" The middle-aged man's son said menacingly.

"Fine!" Zhang Menglong forced a smile, not wanting to waste time here anymore, "You tell me, what do you want to do?"

"Ouch…" The middle-aged man just moaned without saying a word.

"You hit my dad so badly, he definitely needs a full body examination," the young man said, "How about this, you leave one hundred thousand yuan for now, and I will take my dad for a checkup. Leave me your phone number, and if it's not enough, we'll contact you again!"

"I think that's fair, given the severity, one hundred thousand isn't much, and it might not even be enough!"

"Exactly!"

People around them chimed in, one after another.

"Good lord, are there shills too?" Zhang Menglong noticed that these people seemed to be exchanging secretive glances, "Alright, bringing the scam right to my doorstep, huh?"

Zhang Menglong coldly laughed and then made a phone call to Hong Yi, "Hong Yi, do I own a private hospital in Dongji City?"
