Chapter 65: This Is the Company’s System Funds

"Sir, this bed is crafted from pure solid wood, and all the other materials are eco-friendly as well. You can rest assured using it for children."

Tailong Furniture Mall.

Chen Mo crouched in front of a bunk bed for children and examined it carefully, finding that the sales assistant was right.

It was indeed crafted from pure solid wood.

Shen Rou watched quietly from the side. She hadn't expected that President Chen had come to the furniture mall to buy new beds for the children at the orphanage.

Seeing President Chen carefully examining the material of the beds, she felt very touched.

"How much is this bunk bed?"

After confirming the material of the bed, Chen Mo stood up and looked at the sales assistant.

"Sir, this children's bunk bed is 9,998 per unit."

The sales assistant replied enthusiastically.

"How much stock do you have on hand?"

Chen Mo asked again. This was a question he was quite concerned about; if there was enough stock on hand, the children would be able to sleep on the new beds sooner.

"We currently have a total of seven in stock. I'm not sure how many you are planning to buy, sir?"

Hearing Chen Mo's question, the sales assistant's eyes lit up instantly.

Based on her many years of sales experience, she judged that anyone who asked such questions definitely had the intention to purchase. If she seized the opportunity, the probability of closing the deal would be very high.

"Sir, if you purchase more than five beds, you can enjoy a 5% discount."

Hearing the word "discount," Chen Mo subconsciously frowned, but he quickly reacted and smiled helplessly.

He had become obsessed with spending the System Funds!

This time it was charity for the orphanage, and the 800,000 would definitely be spent. Saving a little here would mean more funds available for other expenses at the orphanage.

There were currently 15 children in the orphanage, and there were only seven in stock here; bunk beds could accommodate 14 children.

However, these children were still small, so two children could sleep on one bed for the time being.

"Fine, I'll take all seven in stock. Additionally, I'd like to order one more of these bunk beds. I hope you can have it made as soon as possible."

"President Chen, wouldn't that be too expensive? The children are still small; buying such expensive beds is too extravagant."

"I thought those beds for a few thousand yuan earlier were quite good too."

Hearing that Chen Mo had decided to purchase them just like that, Shen Rou spoke up anxiously.

A single bed cost nearly ten thousand yuan; how could she let President Chen spend so much money?

"Those beds for a few thousand yuan are all made of composite boards, which contain a lot of formaldehyde. If children absorb too much formaldehyde, it will affect their health."

"These are solid wood beds crafted from high-quality solid wood, so there's no need to worry about formaldehyde issues."

Seeing Shen Rou's anxious expression, Chen Mo patiently explained.

Formaldehyde is extremely harmful to people, especially children, so one must not be careless about this aspect.

Even for the employee dormitory being built for the Garment factory, he had required the renovation company to use good solid wood materials.

"Ah!"

Shen Rou opened her mouth. She hadn't even thought about this aspect before. Now, hearing Chen Mo say this, she realized it was a very important issue.

This concerned the health of those children, so she had no way to refuse.

"President Chen, thank you. You can put the cost of these beds on my tab; I will definitely pay you back."

Since she couldn't refuse, she would just treat it as a loan.

Her salary was now ten thousand, so eight beds would be eight months' salary; she could afford it.

Hearing this, Chen Mo furrowed his brows. He was properly using 800,000 for charity; if he put it on her tab, how would he be doing charity?

After thinking for a moment, he looked at Shen Rou and said seriously.

"Shen Rou, I am buying these beds for those children, not because of you, but because of the children themselves."

"And this money is not just my own; it is a charity fund established in the company's name."

"Therefore, this money belongs to the company, and it belongs to everyone at the Garment factory and Cangxue Games. If you really want to do something, then just do your own job well."

"In addition, the company will set aside a charity fund for public welfare activities every once in a while in the future. In the future, it won't just be the orphanage receiving help; there will be other people or causes that need support."

Listening to Chen Mo's words, Shen Rou gradually lowered her head in shame.

She realized that President Chen's level of thinking was already far higher than her own. She had only been thinking about that small orphanage in her heart, while President Chen was already considering helping more people.

The orphanage was just the first beneficiary.

"President Chen, I understand. I will definitely work hard to bring greater benefits to the company so that we can help more people."

Shen Rou raised her head and said with a determined look in her eyes.

Looking at Shen Rou's determined expression, Chen Mo really wanted to say that it wasn't necessary.

I hired you as an assistant, not to create benefits for the company!

He muttered silently to himself, then turned to look at the sales assistant who was waiting quietly.

"You can write up the receipt now."

"Okay!"

Hearing this, the sales assistant hurriedly replied and ran quickly toward the counter, as if afraid that Chen Mo would change his mind.

Just now, when she heard the girl say it was too expensive, she had thought for a moment that the deal was going to fall through.

After all, based on her many years of sales experience, when a man and a woman came to buy something, if the woman held an opposing opinion, it was very difficult to close the deal.

She had originally given up hope, but hadn't expected such a turn of events.

She quickly wrote up the receipt and walked back.

"Sir, I need you to fill in the delivery address and time."

Chen Mo took the receipt, wrote down the time and location, and handed it back.

"Alright, sir. According to your schedule, someone will deliver the beds tomorrow morning, and there will be corresponding workers to install them for you. If there is anything you are dissatisfied with at that time, please feel free to contact us."

After buying the beds,

Chen Mo also bought a large double bed; this was prepared for Grandma Wu.

Then he ordered a batch of children's tables and chairs.

Leaving the Tailong Furniture Mall,

Chen Mo had Yang Dahai drive to a sports company to discuss rubber flooring and some children's recreational facilities.

In this way, some of the large items for the orphanage were all complete.

As for the remaining small items, Grandma Wu could buy them herself.

After this trip, only a little over two hundred thousand had been spent, and there was still more than five hundred thousand in charity funds left, which was enough for the orphanage to use for some time.

"Brother Yang, no need to go back to the company, just head home."

Chen Mo glanced at the time and found that it was already 4:30. With only half an hour left until off-work time, he simply decided not to go back.

"Alright, President Chen."

Yang Dahai replied.

"Where do you need to go?"

Chen Mo turned his head to look at Shen Rou.

"I can just get off at the subway entrance up ahead."

Shen Rou glanced at the location and pointed at the subway entrance ahead.

The vehicle slowed down and stopped beside the subway entrance.

Just before getting out of the car, Chen Mo suddenly called out to Shen Rou.
