Hexagonal God

Chapter 231 Spending money is always the most practical

"Jianye, let's have a drink first."

Su Mo clinked glasses with Wang Jianye and ate something before he slowly spoke.

"Jianye, the original intention of establishing this Youth Foundation is to enable children in poor areas to afford education and to read good books. That's why I plan to expand to the western region. If I rely on him to make money, then the west is not a good place to go. What do you think?"

Wang Jianye was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth, but suddenly had nothing to say, and his face turned a little red.

He had taken things for granted these days. From a penniless pauper, he had become a wealthy man with a net worth of hundreds of millions. Su Mo's kindness to him was like a rebirth.

He just wanted to help Su Mo get this done and make money for him.

He even specified many ways to make money, including paid projects, but they have not been put forward yet.

After hearing what Su Mo said, he suddenly realized that he had gotten himself into a dead end.

The boss wants to do charity, and he does it without hesitation.

But he still found it hard to believe that after spending hundreds of millions to build such a big business, they really didn't want any return at all?
Seeing Wang Jianye's eyes, Su Mo understood what he was thinking. He continued, "Now let me make a few points. These conditions cannot be changed or ambiguous."

Wang Jianye immediately took out his notebook, and the two young men beside him also started taking notes.

At this moment, Su Mo took the initiative to express his thoughts.

"I completely agree with your proposal to build 100 Hope Primary Schools and 10 Middle Schools, but that's not enough. We also need to build high schools so that the children educated in our schools can directly pass the college entrance examination."

Upon hearing this, Wang Jianye was stunned.

Building a middle school was a bold idea of ​​his. In his opinion, having primary schools so that children in remote areas can go to school and learn to become literate was already a great deed. Building a middle school was already a forward-thinking move. Unexpectedly, in the eyes of his boss, his move was still conservative.

"Boss, isn't this too wasteful?"

Su Mo shook his head slightly: "It's not a waste. We don't need to build a separate high school. The high school and junior high school can be merged. One school has both high school and junior high school departments. There is no conflict, and the cost is not very high."

"So what about teachers? Elementary school classrooms are relatively easy to find, but junior high school teachers are a bit more difficult. Not to mention private schools in remote areas, even state-run schools in western China rarely have teachers willing to go there, let alone high schools."

Su Mo smiled and said, "Teacher, why don't you want to go?"

"Well, the conditions are tough, and the earnings aren't that much."

Su Mo nodded. "The conditions are certainly difficult. All we can do is to improve them as much as possible, at least in terms of food and accommodation. We can't let the teachers suffer too much."

"But private schools don't have a staffing system, so the teachers might have some ideas."

Su Mo thought for a moment and said, "We will also pay for the teachers' salaries. We will also pay for all five social insurances and one housing fund. The salary is three times that of a normal teacher. The contract is for three years. Junior high school and high school teachers can transfer freely after three years and have priority in entering other companies of the Su Tang Group. Do you think there will be teachers willing to come?"

Wang Jianye was stunned for a moment: "Boss, the group has been established?"

Su Mo covered his forehead slightly, forgetting that Su Tang Group had not yet been established.

But it will be soon. Once the drinking water company is set up, it will be almost done.

He nodded at Wang Jianye: "Not yet, but it won't be long."

Hearing this, Wang Jianye's eyes lit up. "Don't even mention Su Tang. Triple the salary alone is enough to attract many teachers to teach there. They can be transferred after three years, which is equivalent to nine years working elsewhere. I believe many people will agree."

"Well, that's fine, but they must have a teaching certificate, and we also look at their professional title. The higher the title, the higher their level, and we can even raise their salary. Mainland teachers can make 6,000 yuan a month, but I want our outstanding teachers to earn 30,000 yuan a month. I believe that a big reward will inspire courage, and the teacher problem can probably be solved locally."

Wang Jianye's eyes widened: "Boss, the cost of building these schools is not a small amount."

Su Mo smiled and waved his hand to indicate that it was okay.

This process itself is a gradual process, and it is not a matter of taking out a lot of money all at once. The fact that Wang Jianye can spend these 400 million in two years shows that he is very capable.

How much money will Su Mo have in two years?
Su Mo himself didn't dare to imagine that at that time, each of his businesses could make him the richest man in the country.

With his current daily salary of more than 10 million yuan, Su Mo can support hundreds of schools.

"Also, since we're going to the western region, we can't charge tuition there. Our school is completely non-profit, but management must keep up. We need to create conditions that are better than those of state-owned institutions. If we do build a school, we should either not build one at all, or build it decently. We need the necessary teaching buildings, playgrounds, sports facilities, cafeterias, staff dormitories, student dormitories, office buildings, and even school buses. Nothing should be missing."

Wang Jianye also understood Su Mo's ambitions. He didn't dwell on the money and wrote down everything. Then he asked, "What about our government subsidies, scholarships, etc.? Do we still need to apply?"

"Of course. Not only do we need to apply, but we also need the strong cooperation of local governments. I'm going to the capital in the next few days to try to resolve this matter. At the very least, the Ministry of Education needs to issue a document. That way, many local governments will apply without us having to personally search for them. We only need to assess them. This is much more efficient than us running around to each place to conduct on-site inspections, like a headless fly."

Wang Jianye nodded repeatedly as he listened. "That's good. Otherwise, the western part of our country is so vast, and even if we run ourselves ragged, we won't be able to visit many places. Moreover, the tasks involved in each place are extremely complicated."

Su Mo thought for a moment and said, "You can move to the Tianchen Road store I mentioned in the next few days to work there. Set up the foundation's sign and keep the name of the school you attended as Su Tang. This will also be a good publicity for us."

"Okay, boss, but it won't be too soon. After all, there are so many things involved."

"Yes, there's no need to rush. As for recruiting teachers, we can wait until the Ministry of Education issues the relevant documents before we start recruiting."

Wang Jianye nodded continuously and wrote down the key points one by one.

After the meal, Su Mo had almost finished explaining the matter.

Since he wanted to do good things, he had to do them thoroughly. Su Mo didn't intend to give anyone any cause for criticism.

After discussing the serious matters, it was time to eat and drink.

Wang Jianye and the two young men nearly swallowed their tongues during their meal. Su Mo's Northeastern cuisine had reached its peak, and paired with the spicy Feitian Moutai, they were completely satisfied with the meal.

The last few people were so drunk that they almost pointed their fingers at the sky and swore that they would do this job well and devote their lives to this cause.

However, Su Mo still asked them to recruit people as soon as possible. If they only relied on a few people, it would take a long time to build hundreds of schools. The team would need at least dozens of people.

Wang Jianye and the others left and went to the hotel to rest. Su Mo called Zhou Xiwen again and told him about renting a property from the Poly Community Sales Office.

Zhou Xiwen had originally asked Su Mo for help. It just so happened that the houses in Poly Community were almost all sold. The sales office was an independent three-story building with an area of ​​more than 2,000 square meters. No one knew what it was used for. When Su Mo asked, he immediately agreed.

"How about you just buy it?"

He asked tentatively, and Su Mo thought it was not impossible.

After casually asking about the price, Zhou Xiwen said it was 18 million.

According to the housing prices on Tianchen Road, this price is too cheap.

But the problem is that the sales office is not on Tianchen Road, but on the other side, and the price is even a little bit higher.

Su Mo didn't want to owe him any favors either. It would be difficult to get things done if he owed too many favors, so he immediately agreed and set off to find Zhou Xiwen to transfer the ownership.

This made Zhou Xiwen feel a little regretful. He had hoped that Su Mo would bargain and give a bigger price reduction, so that things at Taikoo Li would be easier to negotiate.

But Su Mo didn't even mention the price, and even suffered a loss.

But the words had already been spoken and there was no way to take them back. He could only grit his teeth and wait for Su Mo's arrival in the sales office.

Su Mo drove to the entrance of the sales office and asked Zhou Xiwen to get in the car. They went to the Real Estate Bureau to transfer the ownership.

Zhou Xiwen was speechless. He had never seen Su Mo buy a house like this.

Half an hour later, Su Mo came out of the sales office with the property photo, which finally solved his problem.

This house of more than 2,000 square meters is enough for the anchors of Su Tang Entertainment in Chengdu for the time being. When the team expands in the future, we will move it to Taikoo Li.

Zhou Xiwen looked at Su Mo, his tone slightly apologetic: "Brother Su, this is because of what happened. How about I return the three million to you and you just give me fifteen hundred."

Su Mo waved his hand directly: "Don't be polite with me, Brother Zhou, I don't need the three million. You are short of money now, so keep it."

Zhou Xiwen hesitated again and again, but in the end he was reluctant to give up the three million and did not return it to Su Mo.

Seeing this situation, Su Mo just smiled and said, since you are so greedy for money, I will give you some money and let you spit out the entire Taikoo Li project.

When he parked the car in front of the sales office and was about to get out to take a look, Zhou Xiwen took the initiative to bring up the matter.

"Brother Su, what have you thought about that matter? Have you discussed it with your family? This is really urgent here."

Su Mo thought for a moment and said, "We've discussed it. My family's intention is very clear. If we want to do it, we have to take over the whole thing. If we don't do it half and half, it will be a hassle to manage it in the future."

"Take over the whole thing? My investment in this project from start to finish has already reached 1 billion, and another 1 billion will be needed to complete it. Taking over the whole thing is not a small amount of money."

Su Mo smiled and glanced at Zhou Xiwen: "Will Brother Zhou be willing to let go of the billionaire?"

Zhou Xiwen immediately shook his head like a rattle. "A billion is impossible. You know the location of Chunxi Road. If this project goes ahead, its value will definitely increase."

"But if it can't be done, it will just be a bunch of unfinished buildings." Su Mo poured a bucket of cold water on him.

Zhou Xiwen gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Ye from Longhe Group is also somewhat interested in this project. He offered a price of 1.2 billion, but I didn't agree."

Su Mo didn't waste any words and directly gave Zhou Xiwen a bottom price.

"1.5 billion. If you agree, transfer the entire project to me. If you don't agree, just pretend I never said anything."

Even though Zhou Xiwen was a real estate businessman who had seen many ups and downs, he was still stunned by Su Mo's financial offensive.

He hoped that Su Mo would invest, but Su Mo refused.

He also contacted Mr. Ye Yucheng of Longhe Group, but the other party also wanted to acquire him, otherwise he would not be where he is today.

The price Mr. Ye gave him allowed him to make a net profit of more than 200 million.

Zhou Xiwen held on at that time because he was really optimistic about the Chunxi Road Taikoo Li project, and two hundred million was not enough to bring him down.

But he also admired Ye Yucheng. He was the only one who dared to offer such a high price when the future of the project was uncertain.

But compared with Su Mo's current performance, Ye Yucheng's courage is nothing.

As long as he nods now, he can get rid of this project that is bothering him and has the risk of being left unfinished.

Moreover, the net profit was more than 500 million, and this temptation made him unable to hold on.

Looking at Zhou Xiwen's dilemma, Su Mo smiled.

Spending money is the least valuable method, but it is always the most practical. If it is not practical, it must be because you didn't spend enough.
