Chapter 659: Crazy Exchange
Qin Hao, with quick reflexes, hurriedly grabbed her arm.
Chang Jing's face was pale, and large beads of sweat formed on her forehead. Qin Hao steadied her and asked, "Are you okay?"
She took a sharp intake of breath, "I've twisted my ankle."
Qin Hao glanced at her and said, "I'll help you back to the office first." Having said that, he supported Chang Jing as they headed downstairs, but it was really inconvenient to walk down the stairs with one foot.
"I'll carry you down," Qin Hao said, not waiting for her agreement, and picked her up to walk downstairs.
Chang Jing's cheeks turned slightly red, and she sneakily glanced at Qin Hao before quickly lowering her head – this guy was too rough; I hadn't even agreed yet.
"Mr. Qin, Mr. Chang, what is this???" Li, the secretary, suddenly came out of the third-floor corridor and saw Qin Hao holding Chang Jing with wide eyes, somewhat in disbelief.
Chang Jing felt her cheeks burning; she knew she needed to remain calm.
She said in as calm a voice as she could manage, "I twisted my ankle and couldn't walk downstairs, so Mr. Qin is carrying me."
Qin Hao quickly nodded, "Yes, that's right, Mr. Chang twisted her ankle."
Li, the secretary, held back her laughter. Their story was too poor, but she didn't dare expose them; both were her immediate superiors: "I understand, Mr. Chang, you don't have to explain, I know you've twisted your ankle."
When Chang Jing heard her, she felt the urge to spew blood. It was obvious that she didn't believe it and thought I was making excuses.
"Mr. Qin, Mr. Chang, continue on; I didn't see anything just now," she said before retreating back into the corridor.
Qin Hao looked awkwardly at Chang Jing, who glared at him: "It's all because of you. Your response just now made it sound even more like an excuse."
Qin Hao replied exasperatedly, "How is this related to me? Did I say anything wrong?"
"Of course, you did, you should have proven it to her."
Qin Hao asked, "How should I prove it? Like this?" As he spoke, he touched Chang Jing's twisted ankle, and a scream erupted instantly.
Li, who hadn't walked far, shivered when she heard it. What were Mr. Qin and Mr. Chang doing?
Chang Jing fiercely clutched at the flesh around Qin Hao's waist, nearly tearing it off, as she looked at him with her eyes reddening, "Are you trying to kill me with pain?"
Qin Hao countered, "But you just told me to prove it, didn't you?"
Chang Jing, taken aback by his retort, hastened him, "Hurry up and get me back to the office."
Qin Hao carried her to his office and hadn't put Chang Jing down when his phone in his pocket rang. He hurriedly placed Chang Jing gently on the sofa and answered the call.
Li Qingya's voice came from the phone, "Mr. Qin, the heads of all thirty-six companies under the Xinghai Association have agreed, and this month we will officially start implementing the new salary system."
Qin Hao's face lit up with joy, "Good, Qing Ya, thank you for your hard work."
Li Qingya gave a slight smile, "Mr. Qin, you are too polite. This is all part of my job. The Xinghai Association does indeed need to set up such a threshold."
Qin Hao remembered something, "Xinghai Holding Company overseas holds shares in many companies. I forgot about your remuneration issue. I'll give you five percent of the shares in Xinghai Holding Company overseas. Naturally, being so busy here will affect Kangmei Group's management."
Li Qingya replied with a laugh, "At Kang Mei Group, it's mainly my father and Qingyun who are responsible. I'm now specifically in charge of Xinghai Holding Company."
After chatting for a while, Qin Hao hung up the phone. These people were very cooperative, and naturally, he wouldn't treat them unfairly.
"Mr. Chang, let me take a look at your foot first," Qin Hao carefully removed her high heels.
By this time, her ankle had swollen up. Qin Hao held her calf with one hand and took out several silver needles with the other, inserting them into her ankle.
She was curious about where Qin Hao had produced the silver needles from.
And who had he learned his medical skills from? Artificial intelligence technology, advanced seismometers, advanced radar navigation satellites, and so on.
She had never thought about it carefully before but thinking about it now was somewhat terrifying. How could a person be so skilled to such an extent?
Was he perhaps an extraterrestrial being?
He had information; if he were an extraterrestrial being, surely the country would know, she pondered deeply.
Qin Hao looked at her translucent, jade-like feet and admired them for a moment before turning to Chang Jing, only to find her lost in thought: "Mr. Chang, don't move, the swelling will go down in a moment."
Chang Jing did not respond; she was still immersed in her own thoughts.
Qin Hao said, "Hey, big sister, what are you thinking about?"
Chang Jing: "What are you doing?"
"It should be me asking you, what are you so engrossed in thinking about? Don't tell me you've got someone on your mind? Just don't forget what you promised me at the beginning," Qin Hao said with a smile.
Chang Jing: "What did I promise you? I don't remember."
Qin Hao smiled and did not argue with her further. He went to the computer and opened the system's marketplace to exchange for new concrete material technology and new road material technology, among others.
He transferred these two technologies to Number 002. These would be useful when it was time to construct the port.
Qin Hao also exchanged for regular car engine technology, new alloy technology (applicable to phones, computers, home appliances), high-tech door and window technology, advanced cable technology, and advanced piping equipment.
He exchanged for more than twenty different types of advanced product development technologies across various industries, spending nearly two hundred million achievement points.
He had two main goals: one was to let the companies under the Xinghai Association use them for free as compensation, and the other was to comprehensively improve the product quality across industries in Xuan Country.
Why is the Federation so developed? Simply because the quality of their products in various industries is at the world's advanced level. Good products have greater competitiveness and better sales.
Just like foreign cars, with engine technology far superior to domestically produced cars in Xuan Country, and many other components. Qin Hao was now set on changing this situation to make Xuan Country lead the world in all industries.
He wasn't transferring these technologies to the companies under the Xinghai Association, but allowing them to use them. If one day they left the Xinghai Association, Qin Hao would take them back and knock them down to square one.
Unknowingly, more than two hours passed, and he had transferred all the technical materials to Xiaoxing's server.
After completing all this, he stretched and felt he had touched something. Turning his head, he saw He Jing standing behind him, watching him: "What were you just writing?"
Qin Hao: "Some technical materials. When you come to the company tomorrow, contact Qing Ya and others to file for the national patent. Then sign a contract with them. They can use these advanced technologies for free, but if they leave the Xinghai Association, then we have the right to take them back."
Chang Jing's eyes were filled with amazement: "Did you just come up with all this?"
Qin Hao: "I've been thinking about it for many days. I only wrote it out today. How's your foot?"
"Much better, but I can't exert too much force. Wearing high heels might still not work." She was currently standing barefoot next to Qin Hao.
