Back to the 70s: My Childhood Sweetheart Spoils Me Rotten
Chapter 1032 - 1034: The Precedent Must Not Be Set
It seems this girl is quite keen on buying land here in Hainan, even though Zhao Xuran is seriously helping Gong Ruini with the grilling.
Zhao Xuran, who habitually listens to what people around her are saying, certainly didn’t miss what Gong Zhuang was saying.
Maybe Gong Ruini thinks that none of them took her words to heart, which is actually incorrect.
It’s not a lack of attention; indeed, they also think that hoarding land here is quite good, but money is a crucial issue.
There are so many places that need investment; if it could be converted into cash quickly or easily here, of course, Zhao Gang and the others wouldn’t dwell on it.
"Do you think buying land here is good?" Zhao Xuran placed the grilled chicken wings in Gong Ruini’s hands.
Gong Ruini took it, bit into it, "I think buying land is a good way to make money."
Rolling her eyes, "It’s good, but haven’t you said building houses earns more?"
She did say that, but the key to the problem is, "Do you know design?"
"Do you know how to build a house that will be popular with everyone?"
"That’s not difficult." Zhao Xuran felt strange, isn’t it just a house? So many homes are built just like that, and there haven’t been any issues seen.
Sigh, people these days, not traveling or seeing the world, just have limited vision.
"Why, when it’s the same courtyard house, do you think ours is good and the neighbor’s is bad?" Gong Ruini wanted to say other courtyard houses, then thought there was really no comparison.
"But we invested more, our garden is really good." Even though people say behind our backs it’s just a fruit orchard, like they’ve never seen money before.
But can’t deny the garden is indeed built well, otherwise, when neighbors come visiting, they’d make a point to tour it thoroughly.
"Investment is also big." Zhao Xuran recalled when the family’s economy was not as good as it is now, yet they dared to invest so much money in it, really admiring their willingness back then.
"Large investment, but the selling price is high too. If we priced it three to four times higher than the neighbor’s, I think people would still buy." Gong Ruini was quite proud.
"Without mentioning anything else, if we were to rent out our courtyard house, the rent is also high, right?" Gong Ruini thought about how in-demand the courtyard house was, feeling quite smug inside.
"According to Guang Ran’s idea, simply renovate the house casually, and not bother with anything else, we could make money like this now."
The rent is high, not to mention, there truly isn’t a lack of tenants, what Gong Ruini is thinking now is, "Many foreigners quite like this style, but not every foreigner has the money to rent such an expensive courtyard house."
"I plan to create a large courtyard house, arrange it well, and then rent it out by room to them." This way, perhaps the rent will be higher, and also be able to get acquainted with several more foreigners.
If they could be coaxed to go to the tutoring school and interact with some students, it would be even better.
Gong Ruini now has her sights set on tutoring English, sending more people abroad to study, where money can be earned more.
Although there aren’t many tutoring classes cropping up, there are already people following the trend, Gong Ruini is unsure how long her advantage will last, but at least she has to make changes.
And a study abroad agency is a good entry point, with Zhao Guangran overseas, he can help gather a lot of information from abroad.
This point Gong Ruini firmly believes Zhao Guangran will definitely complete the task perfectly, making money isn’t just her interest but also Zhao Guangran’s interest.
The situation abroad isn’t worrisome, but in domestic affairs, there are quite a few issues, such as foreign language teachers.
Gong Ruini doesn’t need foreigners, foreigners are just a signboard, practicing spoken language, if really sending more people abroad, at least they need to be familiar with the TOEFL exam papers.
Gong Ruini can attempt to pass on her experience, but good English teachers are few, even if there are, they might not be willing to be recruited by someone as young as her.
"Sigh, why is there such a shortage of English teachers?" Gong Ruini is really quite helpless.
"It’s not that there’s a shortage of English teachers, but English teachers, as long as they are proficient, will work as translators to make money."
"I can offer high salaries." Gong Ruini isn’t stingy, the red packets she sends out during the holidays enough to attract many teachers to come.
But even after Gong Ruini left, not many English teachers took the initiative to visit, which really frustrated Gong Ruini.
"High salary brings high pressure." Gong Ruwen interjected.
Zhao Xuran really wanted to transform, never seeing someone so eager to interject, didn’t he know it was their private time for the two of them at the moment? Why does Gong Ruwen insist on joining in?
Gong Ruwen didn’t care about certain people’s stares, "I think the main thing is that your income is good, pressure is high, if the performance isn’t great, bonuses aren’t much, and you may not renew the contract."
Gong Ruini considers this quite normal, "I offer high salaries, hence have my requirements."
"Impossible to be like a school, if that’s the case, who would willingly come to me."
"Actually, among these teachers, those who really satisfy me are few." Gong Ruini sighed, unconvinced if it’s because they’ve been teaching too long, lacking passion for teaching.
In general, seeing them teaching, there’s really insufficient enthusiasm.
Gong Ruini can understand them, but can the parents of those students understand?
"Yeah." Gong Ruwen recall the nickname given outside to tutoring classes, thinking Gong Ruini has quite a lot of pressure.
"So the pressure should not be only mine." Gong Ruini has encountered parents who fancied themselves as impressive, blocking her.
Their demands are simple, only hoping Gong Ruini could teach their children; this request, Gong Ruini truly couldn’t fulfill.
It’s not that she doesn’t have time, mainly opening this gate means others will come knocking.
These days, the ones willing to spend on such tuition for their own kids, aren’t they mostly people with or without money issues?
They aren’t lacking money; some people aren’t lacking prestige either, Gong Ruini really can afford to offend no one.
"Including this winter vacation, some have offered money to have me tutor their kids at a high price." Gong Ruini thought of their faces and felt disgusted.
"You consider it easy; some have even approached Chu Ling, hoping she could persuade you to help tutor their children." Gong Ruwen was also furious.
Ah, someone is going to Chu Ling? They really have guts, no, rather they must have significant influence.
Otherwise, how would they step into the Chu family’s house, who doesn’t know Chu Ling’s status in Old Sir Chu’s heart?
If it weren’t for Chu Ling announcing early that she wouldn’t be going to military school, there’d be no knowing how many obstacles she’d face. Even like this, the sarcastic remarks haven’t been less.
Even when visiting Mr. Chu for advice, Gong Ruwen had to endure a fair amount of disdain.
Luckily, after Gong Ruwen learned Mr. Chu called him over, he prepared himself mentally, otherwise really would be driven crazy, never have seen such shamelessness from people behind the scenes.
"They, for saving money, are capable of anything." Thinking of the messages conveyed by Chu Ling, Gong Ruwen was even angrier.
