Light Yagami, who was standing to the side, suddenly let out a soft chuckle.
He stared at the screen, a cold, knowing smile playing on his lips.
"I reckon those so-called 'subsidized items' are all junk that Mr. Li's own company has leftovers, or that has been phased out and is about to be scrapped."
"Anyway, those things are just going to be thrown away anyway, and we might even have to spend money to dispose of the garbage."
"Why not just do him a favor and 'subsidize' that simple-minded lumberjack, Bald Qiang?"
"In this way, we can easily get rid of those useless inventories without spending a single penny of real money."
"It will also make that Bald Qiang grateful to me, so that I can work harder for him in the future and cut down more trees for him."
"Killing three birds with one stone—that's the real, ugly calculation of capitalists."
Light Yagami analyzed calmly.
His tone was filled with undisguised contempt for this kind of humanity.
"..."
"Ah."
"From a human nature perspective, Yagami-kun's speculation is highly likely."
L calmly said this while stuffing a sugar cube into his mouth.
To him, this kind of human behavior, full of calculation and exchange of interests, is the most normal logic in this world.
[Secondly, the exact number of pieces of furniture destroyed inside the cabin where Bald Qiang lives.]
[This includes eleven televisions, eight refrigerators, three toilets, eight wardrobes, nine quilts, and sixteen pillows.]
[Twenty-four spoons, eight ladles, nine wooden cabinets, eighteen plates, ten bowls, eleven wooden tables, and eleven wooden chairs.]
[Eleven microwave ovens, ten single sofas, four teapots, eleven teacups, and twelve iron cups.]
[Several glasses, six non-electric kettles, one electric kettle, seven heaters, eight landline phones, three radios, and two mirrors.]
Three mahogany chests, three mahogany chairs, and five mahogany tables.
Other damaged furniture included: a round wooden barrel, a wooden ladder, a fly swatter, twenty-one plastic chairs, a large iron pot, a kettle, two multi-seater sofas, three large wooden warehouse doors, one ordinary wooden door, an alarm clock, a tube of toothpaste, a toothbrush, a vacuum cleaner, and a broom.
[One laptop computer for internet access only, one old-fashioned laptop computer, one regular laptop computer, three black mice with cables, one safe, several glasses, two coffee machines, and three electric heaters.]
One rolling pin, one high-powered fan, and two electric fans.
The total value of all the damaged items, calculated at the lowest market price, is 800,000 yuan.
Luo Xiaohei's War World
At Xiao Hei's home.
When they saw the list of furniture that Bald Qiang had destroyed, densely packed like a shopping list on the sky, Xiao Bai, Xiao Hei, and Wuxian all showed expressions of surprise.
“Wow…”
"Eleven television sets?"
Eight refrigerators?
"And so many tables and chairs... even twenty-four spoons?"
Xiao Bai's face was filled with surprise.
She simply couldn't understand why so many things would break down in one person's home.
"Does Mr. Li's family own a general store?"
"How come they have everything?"
"He actually gave Bald Qiang so many things as subsidies?"
Luo Xiaohei's cat ears twitched.
His face was also filled with confusion.
"Ah."
"And look, this is only the part that has been 'completely destroyed'."
Wuxian's expression was also somewhat strange.
He was doing mental arithmetic very quickly.
"The total value of this part is already 800,000 yuan."
"Plus the previous 150,000 for 'daily household use'..."
"In other words, that Boss Li has provided Bald Qiang with supplies worth at least 950,000 yuan!"
"And Bald Qiang's monthly salary is only a mere thousand yuan."
"This number... is simply outrageous."
Looking at the screen, he too felt deeply puzzled by Mr. Li's contradictory behavior.
...
Kaguya-sama: Love Is War World
"Let's assume that all the items listed on the screen are items that Mr. Li himself used or old items that his company discarded."
"But even if we just treat them as secondhand scrap and sell them all, we could probably easily make tens of thousands of dollars."
Kaguya Shinomiya's eyes were also filled with deep confusion.
Why would he go through all that trouble, going to such lengths to 'subsidize' that Bald Qiang with these things, one by one?
"(Ma Li Zhao) Could it be... that he really is the legendary good boss who appears harsh on the surface but is incredibly loving and considerate of his employees and subordinates?"
"But...that's impossible."
“A truly good boss would never delay paying his employees a mere few hundred yuan for their life-saving travel expenses when they need money most to go home for the Chinese New Year.”
"There must be deeper reasons behind this that we don't know about."
As she looked at the screen, she felt that the man called "Boss Li" was even more unpredictable and contradictory than the battle of wits between her and the chairman.
[Thirdly, subsidies for regular weapons and special weapons for capturing bears.]
This includes two iron hammers, one small iron hammer, and one wooden hammer.
[Five standard hunting rifles, fourteen specially made orange hunting rifles, one orange revolver, one orange five-barreled shotgun, and one tranquilizer gun.]
Two rocket launchers, four rocket launcher shells, and one black pistol. (Celebration)
[One orange pistol, one rifle, one flamethrower, one spray gun, one snowball gun, one spring-loaded fist gun, and one specially made water gun shaped like a hunting rifle.]
[Twenty-three hand grenades.]
[One large hand grenade, 109 various bombs, one underwater bomb, two remote-controlled bombs, one tear gas grenade, and two tear gas smoke grenades.]
[Thirty-three animal traps, sixty-six chainsaws, thirteen iron axes, one giant tree-chopping axe from the warship-themed ship, and one iron shovel.]
Two iron pickaxes, four iron tridents, one iron hoe, and five iron saw wheels.
One meteor hammer, one large meteor hammer, one iron knife, two small iron knives, and twenty-five throwing darts.
[Three rockets, four missiles, and four homing missiles.]
Two bear-catching robots and one surveillance camera.
The total value of these weapons, calculated based on their market price, is approximately four million yuan.
Boss Li, number 93, has subsidized Bald Qiang with a total of over 40 million yuan! The entire universe is stunned!
The World Under One Person
When Zhang Chulan, Wang Ye, and Zhuge Qing saw the dazzling list of weapons on the sky, enough to arm a small army, they were completely dumbfounded.
"...".
"I...I'm completely dumbfounded."
"Hunter rifles, grenades, rocket launchers, homing missiles?"
Zhang Chulan looked at the long list of weapons on the sky.
He felt that his brain was completely inadequate.
"What exactly does this Mr. Li do?"
"It's one thing to give Bald Qiang such a large subsidy, with household items worth nearly a million yuan in total."
"Now, Sky Curtain is telling us that he also subsidized Bald Qiang with so many... heavy weapons!"
Wang Ye's face was also filled with indescribable shock.
"Does he... does he own a military factory?"
"Wait a minute! The mastermind behind the kidnapping of the little girl is the one who owns an arms factory!"
"Just who is this Boss Li?"
"And look at that last price!"
"These weapons alone are worth a staggering four million yuan!"
"This...this is not a 'subsidy' at all."
"This is basically arming a mercenary!"
Zhuge Qing was also astonished by this number.
He felt that the story was far more complicated than he had imagined.
...
Notebook World
As Light Yagami and L stared at the dazzling array of weapons on the screen, their previous assumptions about "disposing of old and obsolete items" were ruthlessly and utterly shattered at that moment.
"..."
Light Yagami stared at the screen.
