"So, how do you plan to extract this money? Thirty billion isn't a small sum."
"Do you have any suggestions?"
"Pledge it, maybe?" Zuo Zongcai, already having a plan in mind, spoke slowly, "Don't provoke their sensitive nerves again. The overall strategic direction of Gu Clan's expansion was set by you. Using the company's cash flow to subsidize Yueyue would probably not go over well."
Gu Tongshu furrowed his brow: "Pledging stocks would still require explanations internally and externally, not to mention heightened scrutiny from the banks."
"There's no other way!" Zuo Zongcai spread his hands, "Thirty billion dollars—stirring that much up will definitely alarm a lot of people. If you sell other personal assets, the commotion would only be bigger."
