Chapter 1434

~11 min read 2,100 words

This ten million shocked the whole family.

It's fortunate that Grandpa Song Youde and Grandma Wang Lifen are obsessed with making money, carrying small baskets on the mountain to pick tea leaves, and just refuse to come back to eat cherries.

Otherwise, if they heard that Song Tan was going to donate so much, their blood pressure would have shot up.

When the couple lived their lives back then, they had to save money by the half-cent. How could they bear to donate so much money to others?

Even if Song Tan said directly that she was going to help the village build a road, it would be better than this real gold and silver.

But even so, Master Qi Biao and his wife on the side felt quite uncomfortable: back then, they wanted to use that house to provide for their own retirement! Later, they sincerely treated Qiao Qiao as their own family and put all their heart into Qiao Qiao...

But who would have thought, it's only been a year! Song Tan is now starting her donations at ten million. It's fortunate that the money for the house and everything else they gave back then was sincere, otherwise, they would feel a bit ashamed now.

But in the final analysis, they are definitely happy that the child is successful. Master Qi Biao doesn't treat himself as an outsider: "In the past, whoever became successful and built a road for the village, we would all erect a monument. Now that the country is building our roads, if Tan Tan feels that doing some practical things for the fellow villagers is feasible, then do it."

Song Sancheng also bared his teeth: "Doing it is what should be done, it's just that this money is a bit too much..."

She was hesitant, but who knew Wu Lan would quickly make the decision: "Donate! There are benefits to donating!"

"What benefits?" Everyone looked at her with curiosity, even Secretary Xiao Zhu was puzzled: Huh? Aren't all the family's products under the farm already tax-exempt? What other benefits could there be?

Who knew Wu Lan would become calm and composed, eating a cherry at this moment: "I don't know what benefits either. But I've been farming my whole life and haven't earned ten million. My daughter earned so much in one year, which proves that young people have sharp minds, right?"

"Whoever is sharp, we listen to them, right?"

"Besides..." Wu Lan thought left and right, and finally became proud again: "Hasn't Tan Tan always been the one calling the shots in our family? What's there to discuss? Making a fuss over nothing."

Taking a step back, Song Tan gives her money every month, and it keeps increasing; her current savings are almost ten million. With this money, how could their family not live comfortably for a lifetime?

And there's Xiao Lu, what great conditions this child has, and he has money too!

"Donate!" She said firmly, because she had the confidence, and she wasn't afraid at all at this moment.

"Good!" Secretary Xiao Zhu was the first to clap her hands: "Auntie! No wonder only one Song Tan and one Qiao Qiao came out of these ten miles and eight villages! The family still has to rely on you to hold it up. Look, the children are well-educated, the parents are enlightened and supportive, the family style is so upright!"

Wu Lan became shy again in an instant: "W-well, it's just alright."

Song Sancheng, who couldn't get a word in on the side:... What's this, didn't he, the father, educate her too? Why did she erase his credit?

Aunt Lianhua sat on the side watching with a smile, also holding a cherry in her hand. Anyway, she has a tight mouth, and she won't mention a word of what she heard about the Song family that shouldn't be said.

However, one cannot just have passion; planning still needs to be done well.

At this moment, Secretary Xiao Zhu asked: "You didn't finish what you were saying just now, right? What are your specific plans?"

The plan is very simple.

Song Tan was straightforward: "Housing."

"If you want people to settle down and take root, you must have housing first."

The salary she gives here this year is really not low, and it includes food and housing, and the consumption level is low. If there really were commercial housing, judging by the market in the entire Qingxi Town, the price per square meter would be at most one thousand to two thousand.

People in the village bought a house in town two years ago, 95 square meters with a courtyard and two floors, for 120,000!

What? You say three or five thousand?

Oh my! What kind of location is that? And what kind of mountain corner is this?

Calculated this way, a house of one hundred square meters would cost at most 200,000, and everyone could save up for it in a year or two.

But the problem is, commercial housing cannot be built in the village.

Song Tan pondered: "So I said starting at ten million; this money is definitely insignificant for buying land and building a building, but let's think boldly first—you say, is it feasible to buy a piece of land in our town to build a building to facilitate the employees to settle down here?"

At that time, spend a little money to arrange more direct buses for the village and the town; it only takes ten or twenty minutes to take the bus, so this commuting time really isn't a problem.

Secretary Xiao Zhu did the math in her heart, and then smiled: "You really shouldn't say that; according to your assumption, ten million is not insignificant."

There are no real estate developers looking at their town now, but there are already commercial buildings in the more prosperous towns in the distance, and at the most prosperous time, the price per square meter was less than 3,000 yuan—developers build a residential area, why would they build houses if they don't make money?

Although Secretary Xiao Zhu doesn't know how much it costs to build a small residential area, she only needs to calculate the price of local commercial housing and cut the cost in half, and this ten million is really feasible!

She said: "Wait a moment, let me take a memo."

A good memory is not as good as a bad pen.

In this way, Song Tan has figured out the plan for 【Housing】.

"Then what about education and medical care? What do you think?"

What can she think?

Song Tan spread her hands: "I can say a thing or two about housing, after all, our family has built several buildings."

"But education and medical care, do I look like I understand them?"

"There are no children in the village now, so I thought about putting this last. As for medical care... how about donating a large clinic to the village next year?"

Similar to a small hospital, it doesn't need to be very refined or good; hire more retired personnel, focusing on convenience, to handle emergencies for the ten miles and eight villages, and also let everyone have a sense of security.

Now, Doctor Xiao Guo's clinic gives IV drips for some geriatric diseases from time to time, and township hospitals can't do anything other than IV drips and X-rays. If you really want to see a doctor, you have to go to the city, which is too troublesome for the elderly.

Moreover, most hospitals in the city require queuing, and popular clinics start early in the morning; elderly people who have been digging for food in the soil all their lives can't even find the door when they go.

"This is feasible!"

Secretary Xiao Zhu also looked surprised, and looking at Wu Lan and Song Sancheng, their eyes were also shining: "This is good, this is good, let's do this first!"

"Your grandparents, and your grandpa and grandma are old; it's too troublesome to run back and forth to the city for physical examinations, and they are always unwilling."

"If there were a small hospital at our doorstep, that would be great."

It's not that there are no specialized physical examination centers in their city, with less queuing and good experiences. But what is checked out at the physical examination center has to be re-photographed at the hospital. The elderly feel sorry for the money and are unwilling to do anything.

According to them, if you don't go to the hospital, there's nothing wrong, but if you go, there's a bunch of problems.

In short, taking Wu Lan and Song Sancheng as examples, this is what they need most right now.

But this obviously also involved Secretary Xiao Zhu's knowledge blind spot, and she just recorded it cautiously: "I'll go back and ask around later."

It's just that...

She said helplessly: "Except for housing, all the projects you chose have no return, and even require continuous investment—"

Just like that hospital, how many large hospitals have people coming and going every day, and at the end of the year, they still have to rely on allocations from above. Not to mention this township place, but once the machine starts, money will flow out continuously...

Not to mention those pieces of equipment, which cost millions each; this is more like a bottomless pit than housing.

Song Tan also knew this, and smiled helplessly at this moment: "Let's take it one step at a time."

Secretary Xiao Zhu recorded all these ideas, and looked at her again at this moment: "The family has registered a company and a farm, but currently the public and private accounts are mixed together... If you really want to donate money for investment, you have to establish a subsidiary; if everything is mixed together, it will be difficult to do the accounts in the future."

Song Tan nodded: "Okay."

As for the family's public and private accounts... if there are suitable managers in the future, she can sort them out and separate them, and arrange dividends for her parents by the way.

It doesn't matter if there aren't any, after all, everything in the family depends on her, and Song Tan is very casual about this.

But she knows that Secretary Xiao Zhu is reminding her—many family disputes start here, especially when there are other relatives in the family.

Song Tan smiled at her: "I understand everything."

Secretary Xiao Zhu also nodded: "Okay!"

Looking at the large bowl on the table again, only a lonely cherry stem was left inside. She couldn't sit still either, and stood up at this moment: "Don't worry, I'll go back and ask around now, striving not to let you worry!"

This is a major project she is striving for during her tenure, and it must be perfect!

Secretary Xiao Zhu was full of fighting spirit.

However, she walked to the door and turned back, exhorting again: "If you have an idea about this kind of planning, you can reveal it to the employees. Sometimes when they make decisions here, they also need the boss to draw a pie to hint at it."

Otherwise, with no hope at all, it's very likely that the choices made will make both sides regret it.

Song Tan nodded: "Okay!"

To say nothing else, she must build the house! The dormitory is just a temporary place for everyone to stay, but it can't last a lifetime.

Since that's the case...

She also stood up: "I'm going to the mountain to have a word with Chen Yuan."

This captain of hers is now quite trusted in the hearts of all employees. With him speaking out, everyone will have more confidence.

Wu Lan was a bit slow to react: "Oh my, if you really build a house in town, remember to let your eldest uncle buy it cheaper! Leilei will be herding cows at home from now on, and if he doesn't have a house in town, he'll never find a partner."

Song Tan:...

With Wu Lei Ge Ge Lei's brain, whether he can find a partner is not a matter of housing. To be honest, let's leave it to heaven!

She waved her hand: "Don't bother with the eldest uncle, let Wu Lei Ge Ge Lei earn the money to buy it himself. How much can the down payment for a house in town be?"

With her cows and her clients as a backing, if he can't even earn this, he might as well go to the factory to screw bolts.
