Chapter 374: A Law Firm Needs to be Upscale

Coming before the advertisement, he carefully read it over once. Then he turned to look at Mei Yun.

"Are you planning to sell this apartment building?"

This advertisement for the apartment sale was clearly for the East City Apartments right under their feet.

"Yes, President Chen. This sale advertisement has been posted for a very long time, but given the current state of the apartment building, no one would take it over."

Mei Yun felt a bit melancholy.

His family had long planned to sell the apartment building, but what boss would buy a money-losing apartment complex?

So after this sale advertisement was posted, basically no one paid any attention to it.

If President Chen hadn't just asked, he would have almost subconsciously ignored this advertisement whenever he walked by. As for why it hadn't been torn down, he probably still held onto a glimmer of hope in his heart.

"What about now? Do you still have plans to sell?" Chen Mo asked again.

"Naturally, I do." Mei Yun nodded. He wanted to sell this apartment building every day, but unfortunately, there had never been a buyer.

Listening to Mei Yun's words, Chen Mo's gaze fell on the sale advertisement in front of him again, lost in thought.

He currently really needed ways to spend money. However, the sale of this apartment building had allowed him to find a new way to spend money!

As the Pet Park grew, it would certainly need a lot of employees, and at that time, more employee dormitories would definitely be needed.

If he built them himself, it would take time, and those employees wouldn't be able to move in for a while.

So instead of renting apartments here, it would be better to just buy this apartment building.

Moreover, the senior apartment building definitely couldn't be built in a short time, and those empty-nest elderly people who were brought over would certainly need a place to live, so this apartment building was a very good choice.

And there was the renovation. Since he had bought the apartment building, it would certainly need to be refurbished.

After all, he didn't know what kind of tenants had lived there before; some Rooms would definitely be very messy.

The renovation of this apartment building would also be a major expense!

The more he thought about it, the more Chen Mo felt that the apartment building under his feet was absolutely his biggest money-burning avenue right now.

However, right now, his spending plan for July had already been implemented, and he didn't need to buy this apartment building right now to consume the System Funds.

But this apartment building could completely serve as a backup spending plan to deal with unexpected situations.

One had to know that it was July, and the end of August was the date for the system settlement.

With this backup spending plan, he suddenly felt very confident about fully converting the System Funds this time.

Full conversion. That meant 30 million. 30 million!

Chen Mo couldn't help but get a little excited. Was he finally going to successfully convert it this time and become a multi-millionaire?

Suppressing the excitement in his heart slightly, he turned to look at Mei Yun and asked casually.

"What is the selling price of this apartment building?" He wasn't buying it now, but that didn't stop him from finding out the selling price.

"President Chen, it's 80 million." Mei Yun didn't think much of it, just assuming President Chen asked out of curiosity.

After all, to be able to become the president of a Group, even if he looked very young, his business acumen definitely wouldn't be low, so why would he buy such an apartment building?

The price of 80 million was already very low.

When they built this apartment building back then, they had invested nearly 90 million in funds inside and out.

However, in the past few years, there had been very few tenants in the apartment building, but they had also recovered a portion of the funds.

At a selling price of 80 million, overall, they were making money.

But considering the money earned, the invested funds, and the number of years, for a businessman, it was basically an investment failure.

80 million? If he added the renovation, it would be an expenditure of at least 100 million.

Chen Mo muttered to himself. With so much backup capital consumption, he could completely spend this money the day before the settlement, or a few hours before the settlement, and directly clear the System Funds.

Of course, in August, he would certainly first use other methods to spend the System Funds down to a very low level, and then implement the backup spending plan to clear the System Funds.

This plan was simply perfect. The more Chen Mo thought about it, the more he felt that this plan had no loopholes.

Hahaha… Was he finally going to have a full settlement this time?

Thinking about these things, Chen Mo left the apartment building in a pleasant mood, got into his exclusive vehicle, the black G-Wagon, and returned to the company.

… Mingri Group. Chen Mo had just returned to the office. Because he had found a way to fully settle the System Funds, he was in a very good mood and prepared to open his computer to relax.

The office door was knocked on. Soon, Tang Qiu walked in from outside, holding a stack of documents in her hands.

"President Chen, this is the establishment plan for Hundred Books Law Firm, as well as the location selection. You can take a look."

Tang Qiu said, handing the documents in her hand over.

Upon hearing that it was the plan for Hundred Books Law Firm, Chen Mo perked up. This was related to his spending plan for this month, so he definitely had to read it carefully to see if Tang Qiu had saved him any money.

He took the plan and began to read it carefully. But soon, his brows furrowed.

He knew it would be like this. He casually put the plan aside and his gaze fell on Tang Qiu, who was sitting opposite him.

"President Chen, is there a problem with this plan?" Seeing President Chen's frowning expression, Tang Qiu couldn't help but ask. She felt a bit puzzled in her heart.

She had checked her plan many times and considered it very perfect. She didn't know what had made President Chen dissatisfied.

"There is a problem, a big problem." Chen Mo said without hesitation.

"Your plan is too conservative. You want to rent a 200-square-meter office for a law firm. Can that even be called a law firm? That can only be called a studio."

"As a law firm, it must be high-end and upscale. Otherwise, when clients enter the law firm and discover it's just a 200-square-meter studio, their level of trust will definitely be greatly discounted."

"In that case, how can we make clients choose us?"

"But President Chen, the law firm is just starting out, and coupled with the reason of my reputation, if we start by making it very big, I'm afraid there will be a huge risk."

"And if the law firm's new employees are all recruited from interns who have graduated with law degrees, they definitely won't be able to take on cases in the short term. I wanted to rent an office first, then bring some interns to learn, and wait until they have the ability to handle some cases before considering expanding the law firm."

Tang Qiu explained. Although those interns were all graduates in law, they had never been to court after all and lacked experience.

Upon joining the company, they certainly couldn't take over cases. Even for those with good talent and strong ability, they would probably need to train at the law firm for about half a year before they would have the opportunity to independently take over some cases. And that would be for cases that weren't very difficult.

[Wishing all readers a Happy New Year. May the new year be safe and Xile, and may you make a fortune!!!]
