Chapter 235: Expanding the scale

Clothing Factory,

Chen Mo dragged Kui Kui and Qian Qian, walking around the factory area.

There were only a little over ten days left until the settlement, and the building for the cafeteria had already been rented. Once Wang Yang's budget was finalized, he could basically spend the remaining system funds.

The remaining system funds could then be completely spent through company team building.

So, there was basically nothing left to do. He had handed over all work to Shen Rou, and being bored in the office, he came out to walk the dogs.

He first walked a circle through the workshop, and watching the working state of the employees there, he felt a bit annoyed.

Was such a large banner hanging on the workshop wall invisible to these employees? How were they still working with such enthusiasm?

Chen Mo was a bit speechless; out of sight, out of mind.

He simply left the workshop and strolled around the Industrial Park.

"Mr. Chen!"

Suddenly, a call came from beside him.

Chen Mo turned his head and saw it was Li Maode, the Industrial Park Manager, but looking at his expression, it seemed he had encountered some difficulty.

"Manager Li, long time no see. Have you encountered some problem?"

"It's nothing big, just that a company's boss terminated their lease."

Li Maode waved his hand.

"Did they go out of business and lose money?"

Chen Mo thought of this possibility, feeling a bit envious.

Li Maode shook his head, looking at Mr. Chen with a complicated gaze.

"It's not that they lost money. Actually, this has something to do with you, Mr. Chen."

"Something to do with me?"

Chen Mo looked puzzled upon hearing Li Maode's words. What could a company's lease termination have to do with him?

In this Industrial Park, they were the only Clothing Factory; there was no competitive relationship at all.

"It's like this, Mr. Chen. Ever since the welfare benefits of your Clothing Factory spread throughout the Industrial Park, employees of other companies in the Industrial Park compare their daily work to your Clothing Factory, which has resulted in those employees not being very active in their work anymore."

"The boss of that company had no choice but to move the company to another location."

Li Maode looked at Mr. Chen's puzzled expression, revealing a wry smile.

If it were just this one company, he wouldn't be too concerned.

But the key was that now, there was more than one company in the Industrial Park experiencing this situation; many company employees were in this state.

He was very worried that the bosses of those companies would all choose to terminate their leases or not renew them when they expired.

Then this matter would become troublesome.

Chen Mo smiled awkwardly upon hearing Li Maode's words.

He hadn't thought so much when giving those benefits to the employees; he just wanted to spend more system funds.

However, it was impossible for him to change the benefits back now.

So, he had no solution for the situation in the Industrial Park. It was actually very simple to stabilize those employees: just give them a little more welfare.

However, increasing employee benefits would undoubtedly harm the boss's own interests.

How many bosses would be willing to do that?

Thinking of this.

Chen Mo seemed to understand why the system had set so many rules for him.

Human nature is greedy.

If he wasn't given those rules and could freely use the company's rules for his own benefit, what would he become?

He had no answer.

He wasn't sure what choice he would make in the face of immense profit.

After all, that profit had not appeared before his eyes.

But he knew he was just an ordinary person, a commoner.

In history, many people aspired to be good officials, but how many could truly maintain their original intention and remain incorruptible throughout their lives?

Chen Mo sighed inwardly.

However, no matter what the system's intention was, the only thing he had to do now was to spend the system funds and convert them into personal assets.

Money?

Who would ever think they had too much?

Now that he was about to fully convert 1500 system funds, he couldn't give up.

But thinking about it, if that company terminated its lease, wouldn't another workshop become vacant? Could he perhaps make use of it?

Currently, his Clothing Factory only made clothes. If he rented the vacant workshop and set up a shoe factory…

After all, almost all Clothing Factory specialty stores sold shoes.

Since he was opening a shoe factory, employees, machinery, rent, and renovation wouldn't that be another place to spend money?

Chen Mo's eyes lit up, and he turned to look at Li Maode.

"Manager Li, has that company's rent been fully refunded?"

"No, the termination agreement will be signed in a week."

Li Maode shook his head. He had gone today to persuade that boss not to terminate the lease, but he hadn't succeeded.

However, he had secured seven days, and within these seven days, he wanted to try and find other tenants.

"Then, Manager Li, after this workshop is vacated, could you reserve it for me?"

Chen Mo asked. Currently, he didn't have extra system funds to rent the workshop, but after the settlement, new system funds would come in, and he could rent it then.

He could also directly use up a portion of the new system funds.

"Mr. Chen, you want to rent that new workshop?"

Li Maode heard this and looked at Chen Mo with surprise.

"Yes, that's right, but I want to rent it at the end of the month, not now."

"The end of the month is fine too. Then I'll agree to that boss's lease termination tomorrow and reserve the workshop for Mr. Chen."

Li Maode smiled.

Although it would require waiting over ten days, this was already very good.

If he had to find new tenants himself, it might take one or two months.

Moreover, Mr. Chen's company was in the Industrial Park, so he wasn't worried that Mr. Chen would play tricks on him.

"Okay, then it's settled."

Chen Mo nodded, then dragged Kui Kui and Qian Qian and left.

Not bad.

Going out for a stroll, he found a way to spend money.

And through his recent thoughts, he realized another problem: he could completely expand the Clothing Factory!

Now that not many clothes were being sold, the larger he expanded, the greater the costs he would incur, and the more he would lose.

Thinking of this,

Chen Mo had an idea: if he turned the entire Industrial Park into a Clothing Factory, the daily expenditure would be an incredibly huge number, wouldn't it?

Not bad.

It seemed that next time he talked to Li Maode, he could discuss it with him.

In the future, if any company terminated their lease, he just needed to be informed, and he would rent all of them.

After walking around the Industrial Park with the two dogs, Chen Mo returned to his office.

Leaning back in his chair, drinking the coffee Shen Rou had made, his consciousness immersed itself in the system panel in his mind.

This had been his daily routine for the past two days, as the settlement was approaching, and to avoid any accidents, he had to constantly monitor the changes in the system funds.

Hmm!

Upon seeing the funds on the system panel, he was completely stunned.
