Who would still be a social slave when they are so rich?

Principal's office!
The room is not very big, on the contrary... it is very small, with an area of ​​only about six square meters at most.

Apart from a desk and a filing cabinet, there was only a broken double sofa placed against the wall, which was the only place to sit in the room.

Su Chen's gaze lingered on the worn-out sofa for a moment. He discovered that the sofa cushion was dented a bit. It didn't look like the result of long-term sitting, but rather like... sleeping.

It seems that Principal Chen often sleeps on this sofa, and a hint of thought flashed across Su Chen's eyes.

"Sorry, this office is a bit small, so I can only sit here for a while!"

The office was only a few square meters, and apart from the table, cabinet and sofa, the empty space was only enough for two or three people to stand.

The coming of four or five people at once made the already small office even more crowded.

Su Chen turned his head to look at Su Yan who was looking at the various awards and commendations hanging on the wall and said, "Su Yan, take Xiaoyu for a walk."

Su Yan's expression froze when he heard this, and he didn't react for a moment. Just as he was about to speak, Lin Xiaoyu pulled him out of the office and closed the door behind him.

Su Yan's doubts and Lin Xiaoyu's "education" of Su Yan could be vaguely heard outside the door.

Principal Chen did not expect Su Chen to do this. A trace of embarrassment flashed across his face, but when he thought about what was going to happen next, he felt much better.

As long as they can capture Su Chen, this "great philanthropist", the school will see a lot of changes. For example, a stadium and various sports facilities that they had never dared to dream of before can also be built.

After inviting Su Chen and the other two to sit down, Principal Chen even took out the Huangshan Maofeng tea that he had treasured for a long time from his drawer. This was a gift to him specially when the leader came to inspect him before.

It has always been kept in the drawer and Principal Chen would only take it out to entertain distinguished guests when they came. He usually wouldn't even drink it himself.

After a while of busy work, Principal Chen placed two cups of brewed tea in front of Su Chen and the others, and said with a somewhat apologetic smile: "The conditions of the school are a little poor, please bear with me."

Su Chen looked at the iron cup in front of him and felt like he was back in elementary school. He had a snack at 10 o'clock every morning, which was bread and soy milk. At that time, the soy milk was served in an iron cup like the one in front of him.

"Mr. Su?" Looking at Su Chen who had not moved for a long time, Principal Chen's heart skipped a beat. He thought that his cup and tea were too simple and not pleasing to the eye.

If his negligence caused this "good man" in front of him to be unhappy, he would probably feel guilty for a long time.

At this time, Su Chen also came back to his senses. He saw the slightly embarrassed expression on Principal Chen's face at a glance, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

Su Chen had long seen through the old man's plans, and naturally understood why Principal Chen was so worried about making him unhappy.

"Principal Chen, I just saw this iron cup and thought of my childhood. I was distracted for a moment. Please forgive me."

Su Chen picked up the iron cup on the table. I don't know if it was because Principal Chen hadn't made tea for a long time, or if he was afraid that Su Chen wouldn't drink enough, so he put a little more tea leaves in it. The whole surface of the tea was a light green tea color.

He blew on the tea leaves on the top, revealing the slightly yellow tea soup. A faint fragrance wafted to his face. He took a small sip and nodded in satisfaction.

"This tea is good. I didn't realize that Principal Chen was involved in research on tea back then." Putting down the teacup, Su Chen said casually, but there was a strange flash in his eyes.

"I'm sorry to make you laugh, Mr. Su. To be honest, I know nothing about tea. This tea was given to me by a former leader and has been kept in my drawer ever since."

Principal Chen didn't show any embarrassment on his face because he didn't know anything about tea. Instead, he spoke out openly.

Su Chen nodded with satisfaction when he heard that. He knew something about tea. The Huangshan Maofeng tea he just drank was of top quality.

Judging from the aroma, taste and shape of the tea leaves after brewing, this tea is worth at least several hundred or even thousands per kilogram.

If Principal Chen was a tea lover, he would definitely subconsciously introduce the origin or taste of this tea.

But Principal Chen did not say these things. Instead, he was very frank and told the origin of the tea.

From this we can see that Principal Chen is not the kind of person who puts money in his pocket.

As for whether Principal Chen is pretending?

Su Chen could only smile coldly. Who could pretend to be so conscientious? People still use iron cups to make tea. This thing was popular ten years ago. As for now... the worst case scenario is to use glass cups to make tea.

His fingers tapped lightly on the armrest of the sofa. After a brief pause, Su Chen got straight to the point, "Principal Chen, let me introduce myself again. I am Su Chen, the boss of Yunmengze Group!"

"The boss of Yunmengze Group?!" Principal Chen stood up suddenly upon hearing this, his eyes full of shock.

How could he not be familiar with the Yunmengze Group? The children are now enjoying this wonderful lunch treatment, isn’t it all because of the Yunmengze Group?
But this information was a little hard for Principal Chen to accept for a while. Su Chen looked to be in his twenties and didn't look like the behind-the-scenes boss of a giant enterprise.

After staring at Su Chen's serious expression for several seconds, some people didn't notice anything unusual.

"Are you really the boss of Yunmengze Group and the initiator of the Sunshine Lunch Plan?"

When Principal Chen went to find the relevant personnel of the Sunshine Lunch Program, he also learned carefully that the program was initiated by Boss Yunmengze. At that time, Principal Chen had great respect for this boss whom he had never met before.

Let the relevant personnel of the Sunshine Lunch Program go to the mountainous areas in person and conduct on-site visits to understand which schools or regions need Sunshine Lunch. This alone is more convincing than those foundations that claim to be charities but are actually raising money.

Su Chen raised the corner of his mouth slightly, glanced at Chen Fei beside him and said, "Principal Chen, if you don't believe it, you can ask Chen Fei if what I said is true."

"You have watched him grow up, so I think you know whether Chen Fei will lie to you or not."

After saying that, Su Chen picked up the iron cup and drank the tea quietly, allowing Principal Chen to digest the information carefully.

After a long time, Principal Chen's slightly dull eyes gradually became brighter. He looked at Chen Fei and asked directly: "Are you really working in Yunmengze? Is this Mr. Su... Mr. Su really the boss of Yunmengze?"

Principal Chen did not feel embarrassed at all. He stared at Chen Fei, waiting for his answer.

"Old Principal, I swear on the integrity of Chen Fei and the Chen family that what the boss said is indeed true!"

"The money I used to buy a new house in the county before the New Year was the relocation fee given to me by my boss. Didn't I say before that I was in charge of safety work in a large enterprise?"

"This company is the Yunmengze Group. My responsibility is to protect the boss's safety and act as a driver. In simple terms, I am a personal bodyguard!"

Actually, Chen Fei and Principal Chen are relatives. In the small place of Menguan Town, the surname Chen is considered a big surname. They are related by blood, but the degree of closeness is different.

After receiving Chen Fei's affirmative answer, Principal Chen took a deep breath, and the shock on his face gradually turned into excitement and joy. His hands trembled slightly, and his eyes were a little moist.

"Okay...Okay!" Principal Chen choked up, "I didn't expect...I didn't expect that our school's great benefactor would come in person."

"Mr. Su, thank you so much. If it weren't for the Sunshine Lunch Program you promoted, I don't know how many children would drop out of school due to hunger. You saved their future!"

As he spoke, Principal Chen slowly knelt down on the ground.

This frightened Su Chen so much that he put the cup on the table and quickly stood up to support Principal Chen's body. "Principal Chen, you can't kneel. If you kneel down, I'm afraid it will shorten my life. You can't hurt me!"

Hearing this, Principal Chen paused. He was just expressing his feelings. Now thinking about it, it was just as Su Chen said. Others have taken the trouble to help him, so he cannot do something that would shorten his life.

Principal Chen, who had figured things out, took the opportunity to stand up and wanted to hold Su Chen's hand to express his excitement, but he felt it was a bit abrupt and seemed a little at a loss for a moment.

Seeing this, Su Chen took the initiative to extend his hand and said, "We just happened to be passing by here on a self-driving tour this time. Thinking that Chen Fei's hometown is nearby, we came to take a look. We didn't expect to see the pilot of Yunmengze's Sunshine Lunch Plan here!"

After a pause, Su Chen continued, "Our original intention is to ensure that the children are well fed and have the energy to study. Principal Chen, if you can implement this concept, it will be the greatest affirmation of the Sunshine Lunch Program!"

Principal Chen excitedly held Su Chen's hand, tears flashing in his eyes, "I am just a practitioner. Mr. Su, you are the most admirable person. I must let the children meet you, the great benefactor!"

After releasing his hand, Principal Chen was about to gather the kids in the classroom to show them who gave them such a sumptuous lunch and teach them to be grateful. But he had only taken two steps when he was blocked by Chen Fei.

Principal Chen knew without thinking that this was Su Chen's instruction. He turned around and looked at Su Chen, very puzzled and asked: "Mr. Su, what are you doing?"

Su Chen smiled slightly, pulled Principal Chen to sit on the sofa, and then responded: "Principal Chen, the children are taking a lunch break, so don't disturb them. Besides, I'm not here to express my gratitude, so let's cancel the idea of ​​meeting the children."

Principal Chen was stunned when he heard this. He did not expect Su Chen to be so selfless. Isn't this a typical case of doing good deeds without wanting to leave a name behind?

All the credit goes to Yunmengze Group and has nothing to do with Su Chen who promoted the implementation of this plan.

If it were any other charitable foundation, they would probably film it with cameras and do a lot of publicity on the internet.

"Mr. Su, you are the ones who truly care about the children in the mountainous areas!" Principal Chen said with emotion.

Hearing this, Su Chen calmly waved his hand and said, "If you are successful, you should help the world. I just did something within my ability."

Su Chen didn't want to continue discussing this issue, so he changed the subject and brought it to the school's facilities. "Principal Chen, let's talk about the school's facilities."

Upon hearing this, Principal Chen suddenly hesitated. If Su Chen had no relationship with Yunmengze Group, he would be very happy to accept funding from Su Chen and others to improve the current school environment.

But now that he knew Su Chen's identity, Principal Chen felt guilty if he continued to let Su Chen sponsor their school.

You have to know that the Sunshine Lunch Program covers the entire southwest and northwest. Principal Chen is not clear about the specific data, but he knows the surrounding areas. There are dozens of them in the nearby area alone!
According to this data, there would be hundreds or even thousands of schools in the southwest and northwest regions combined.

If calculated in this way, the monthly investment in the Sunshine Lunch Program is at least tens of millions.

Principal Chen knew that his calculations were still relatively conservative. It was even possible that Yunmengze’s monthly funding exceeded hundreds of millions!
Of course, this is his own estimate, and the exact number is unknown, but even so, it is enough to make him admire it.

If Principal Chen agreed to let Su Chen fund the school and improve related facilities, his school would feel like a leech, sucking blood from Yunmengze's body.

But if he missed this opportunity, he didn't know when the next one would be. For a moment, Principal Chen's heart was wavering between rationality and emotion.

Looking at Principal Chen's conflicted expression, Su Chen smiled slightly, and he already understood in his heart why Principal Chen became so hesitant.

"Principal Chen, you don't have to feel any psychological burden!" Su Chen picked up the teacup and took a sip, speaking in a gentle but firm tone, "The Sunshine Lunch Program is to ensure that children have enough food to eat, and improving the school environment is to allow them to study in better conditions."

"Actually...these two things are not contradictory!" Su Chen put down his teacup and looked directly at Principal Chen. "Since our Yunmengze Group can afford the cost of the Sunshine Lunch Program, we naturally have the spare capacity to improve the school's hardware facilities."

Principal Chen opened his mouth and seemed to want to say something, but was interrupted by Su Chen raising his hand.

"I know what you are worried about." Su Chen smiled, "You are worried that we are too burdened, right?"

Principal Chen sighed, nodded and said, "Mr. Su, you have done so much for the child. I am really embarrassed to ask you to..."

"Principal Chen!" Su Chen interrupted again, his tone becoming more serious. "You don't want the children to be crowded in the shabby classrooms for classes, and you don't want anything to happen to children like Li Shibo because of your refusal."

"This..." Principal Chen was speechless for a moment, opening his mouth but not knowing what to say to refute.

"The answer is obvious!" Su Chen stood up and walked to the window. Looking at the dilapidated campus environment and the earth-dam-like playground, he muttered to himself: "Since we have the ability to change it, why don't we do it?"

Su Chen turned around and looked at Principal Chen, whose hair had turned gray. "Principal Chen, I can see that you are a person who devotes yourself to the cause of education, and I just happen to be able to help you realize your wish!"

The room fell into silence. After a long while, Principal Chen nodded heavily with red eyes, "Okay! Mr. Su, on behalf of all the teachers and students in the school, thank you for your efforts!"

After saying that, Principal Chen bowed deeply to Su Chen. This time, Su Chen did not move away. He knew that if he moved away, Principal Chen would definitely refuse his help.

Sitting back on the sofa, Su Chen and Principal Chen began to discuss which aspects of the school needed improvement.

The conversation lasted for an hour and a half before Su Chen and Principal Chen reached a final solution.

Originally, Su Chen wanted to demolish the school and rebuild it. An elementary school would only cost a few hundred thousand yuan at most, but Principal Chen directly rejected his proposal.

There is no need to rebuild. All you need to do is simply renovate the three-story teaching building and dormitories, harden the cement on the playground, equip it with a basketball court or football field, and add some electronic teaching equipment.

Su Chen really couldn't beat Principal Chen, so he could only nod and agree. In the end, it would only cost a maximum of 100,000 yuan.

This made Su Chen very helpless, but he had no other choice. Principal Chen, the old man, was too stubborn.

Chen Fei, who had been standing by without saying anything, took the initiative to step forward and said, "Boss, old principal, I want to use my own money to set up a foundation for the school to specifically help families like Li Shibo's, so that they can study with peace of mind and change their lives!"

Su Chen looked at Chen Fei in surprise when he heard this, and then a satisfied smile flashed across his face. This guy still knows how to give back to his hometown within his ability.

The happiest person was of course Principal Chen, who happily stood up and patted Chen Fei on the shoulder, his face full of satisfaction.

"Don't worry, I won't let you regret your efforts!" Principal Chen immediately had a plan in mind, which was to use Chen Fei as an example of giving back to his hometown.

Since Su Chen doesn't want to be in the limelight, let Chen Fei do it. This way, Chen Fei can also gain some good reputation.

Chen Fei was still very decisive. After discussing with Principal Chen for a while, they finally decided to set aside 100,000 yuan every year as funding for the foundation, and this money would only pass through Principal Chen's hands.

At the same time, Principal Chen also assured Chen Fei that every expense would be remembered clearly in the future and he could check the accounts at any time.

After discussing everything, Su Chen transferred the funds directly to Principal Chen, ready to leave all matters to him. At most, he would ask the Sunshine Project to send someone to supervise it.

"Why is it three hundred thousand? Mr. Su, did you transfer the money to the wrong place?" Principal Chen asked quickly after looking at the message prompt.

Su Chen looked calm, "Principal Chen, 100,000 of it is the funds from the foundation that Chen Fei mentioned, and the remaining 200,000 is used to improve the school environment!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Principal Chen was about to speak, but Su Chen raised his hand and signaled, "Principal Chen, don't be anxious. Wait until I finish speaking."

"This two hundred thousand is just in case. If the funds are insufficient and I'm not here, you won't end it, right? I'm just in case!"

"If there is any money left, use it to improve the food so that the little ones can eat better!"

Upon hearing this, Principal Chen hesitated for a long time before nodding in agreement.

"Okay, it's getting late. We still have to go to Chen Fei's house and go back to the city in the evening. Let's not waste time here!" Su Chen stood up and walked towards the door.

Su Chen and Principal Chen were chatting and laughing along the way. When they arrived at the playground, they saw Su Yan and his wife chatting with the aunt in the kitchen.

When he saw Su Chen and the others coming out, he immediately went to greet them.

"Brother!" Su Yan looked at Su Chen and the other two curiously as he approached. Seeing them talking and laughing, he knew that things were going well.

Su Chen nodded in response, then looked at Principal Chen and said, "No need to see me off, Principal Chen, just stop here!"

"Okay! Remember to come and visit often in the future!"

Su Chen shook hands with Principal Chen, then drove with the other three people towards Chen Fei's home.

As the two cars disappeared from sight, Principal Chen murmured to himself, "I promise I won't let you down! Next time you come, I will definitely let you see a different school!"

After saying that, Principal Chen turned and walked towards the teaching building. His originally hunched body looked particularly upright under the sunlight!
No one knew that it was this inconspicuous township primary school in the mountains that produced many students with excellent academic performance over the next few years, thus realizing their dream of leaving the mountains.

Of course... all this is a story for later. (End of this chapter)
