Chapter 215 Pet Park Expansion

Jiang Jiu, who was watching this scene from behind, helplessly rubbed his forehead and opened his mouth as if to say something, but in the end, he gave up.

A few minutes later,

Chen Cong looked at the death game interface, silent.

"Why don't you play? I'll go look elsewhere."

Back in the office,

Chen Cong felt a little depressed seeing that Du Ziteng was still alive.

If he died early in this game, how long would he have to wait to play another round?

No way.

The number of people trying it out was too small.

Tomorrow, he had to bring everyone from the Heavenly Dragon Guild to try it out, and Mei Youqian had many gaming groups, so he could ask him to help find another batch of people.

As long as there were more people, wouldn't it be easy for him to find someone to play with?

…………..

Monday,

Chen Mo arrived at the office, feeling joyful.

Just now, he had converted both prizes from the sports meet into cash, and his personal assets had now reached 40,000.

The system funds were also progressing very smoothly.

The 5 million additional investment for the Pet Park had already been transferred, and employee salaries and procurement budgets would also be disbursed today. Now, by the end of the month, he had successfully spent the system funds down to just over 100,000.

To fully convert 1500 system funds, he needed to spend it down to below 150,000 by the end of next month's settlement.

If he continued like this, he would have a complete chance to fully convert the system funds.

Thinking of this,

He immediately got up and called out to Shen Rou in the cubicle, "Let's go to the train station."

"Mr. Chen, what are we going to the train station for?"

Shen Rou followed behind Mr. Chen, a little curious.

"I found a teacher for the orphanage. She should arrive at the train station around noon. We'll pick her up and then arrange for her to be at the orphanage to teach the children."

Chen Mo walked out while speaking.

Just yesterday, Yang Ju called to say that the transfer procedures for the kindergarten there had all been completed and she would be coming today.

Now, Yang Ju's parents had already set off to investigate the situations of people in need across various regions.

So, the arrangements would have to be handled by him.

"Didn't the orphanage already hire a teacher?"

Shen Rou was puzzled.

After Mr. Chen funded the orphanage, he had them hire a preschool teacher.

Currently, there were only about 20 children in the orphanage, and one teacher was already enough; there was no need for two!

After all, young children didn't need to be taught too many things yet.

"Two teachers are for the future. The foundation has already been established, and the investigation team has also departed. At that time, they will definitely discover some children in need, so the number of children in the orphanage will certainly increase."

"By then, one teacher won't be enough."

Chen Mo explained that this investigation team was not only looking into empty-nest elderly but also children in impoverished mountainous areas as objects of care.

Since the foundation had already been established, if they were going to do something, they should do it comprehensively.

Upon hearing this, Shen Rou said nothing more. She knew about the foundation Mr. Chen had established.

As someone who had always followed Mr. Chen, she naturally knew all that he had done.

Helping orphanages, helping stray pets, helping empty-nest elderly…

Mr. Chen was constantly helping more people and animals in need. She hadn't calculated how much money Mr. Chen had invested in charity, but it was definitely not a small amount.

The welfare benefits given to employees in the company were also something other companies couldn't provide.

Take the sports meet held the day before yesterday, for example; that alone cost over 2 million in funds.

Yet, Mr. Chen, who did all this, himself lived in a rented apartment, having just moved to a slightly better community a while ago.

Before that, he lived in the oldest community.

For transportation, he always used the original commercial vehicle. Logically, it was very normal for such a boss to own a luxury car.

Also, regarding meals, he always ate the cafeteria food and was never seen going to any high-end restaurants. However, when the company had gatherings or dinners, Mr. Chen chose high-end restaurants without any hesitation.

Thinking of these things,

Shen Rou's eyes showed deep admiration. Mr. Chen was truly too great.

………….

Pet Park,

Pang Tao and Xu Zhengming sat in a simple shed, drinking tea and discussing matters.

The shed was built a while ago, as the weather was getting colder now, and since they were constantly supervising the construction, they definitely needed a temporary place to rest.

"Mr. Chen has added another 5 million in investment. What should we do?"

Pang Tao took a sip of tea and looked up at Xu Zhengming.

Currently, the construction of the Pet Park was entirely designed based on the previous 5 million in funds. Of course, this also had to account for the daily food and drink expenses for the pets.

Xu Zhengming thought for a moment and slowly spoke.

"Mr. Chen's additional investment surely means he wants our Pet Park to be even better. If it's really necessary, let's expand."

"Expand? But currently, only this area is ours. The surrounding land belongs to other families."

"We can rent it. As long as the price is right, I believe they'll be willing to rent. And our Pet Park is still under construction, so we definitely need labor. While they rent us the land, we can give them work, and they can also earn a wage."

Pang Tao's eyes lit up upon hearing this. In that case, there was indeed a great chance to rent it.

After all, farming takes time, effort, and labor. More importantly, it depends on the weather. If the year is bad, not only will there be no harvest, but they will also lose money on fertilizer and seeds.

Working hard all year, they might even lose money, and even in a good year, after deducting costs, there's usually not much left.

As a result, in the surrounding villages now, young people have all gone out to work, and those still farming are mostly older people.

These people are already old, and farming would definitely be very strenuous, but renting land is different. They can get rent every year and don't have to worry about whether there will be a harvest.

More crucially, if they want to earn more money, they can also do odd jobs at the Pet Park.

And this recruitment would surely be continuous, as workers would still be needed after the park was completed.

Their Pet Park would pay rent and also provide a platform for work.

This was completely a win-win situation.

But what else could be done after expansion? Pang Tao hesitated, looking at Xu Zhengming in confusion.

"What about after expansion?"

"After expansion, there's a lot more we can do."

Xu Zhengming slowly said.

"First, after expansion, we'll have more space to make better divisions. We can divide it into an observation area and an interaction area."

"In the observation area, we'll place pets with fierce and aggressive temperaments. These pets can only be viewed from outside and cannot be interacted with."

"In the interaction area, we'll place pets with gentle temperaments, and visiting tourists can pet and interact with them."

"Second, since it's a Pet Park, pets can't just be cats and dogs. We can appropriately increase the diversity of the Pet Park."
