Chapter 266 Wedding Gift
"Bah... What good things are you thinking? You even named him Haoran. Do you know how to name him? There are at least 80,000 such names in the country, if not 100,000."

"In the future, when the teacher calls the roll of the children in school and calls out Haoran, several children will raise their hands. It would be better to call them Liujinban."

If Yan Danqing hadn't been there, Chen Fan would have cursed even more harshly, and called him son-in-law? What good is he thinking?

Sun Shaojie was not annoyed after being scolded. He considered bringing the child here a victory: "Six and a half pounds is six and a half pounds. Six and a half pounds, daddy will take you to see my future daughter-in-law."

As he said this, he was about to come closer.

Chen Fan was so angry that he turned around and left, handing the child to Xu Jinqiu: "You two are like weasels. If you have something to say, say it. Then go back quickly."

"Junior brother, this is too much!"

Sun Shaojie walked into the living room with a laugh and sat down with his arms and legs spread out: "Brother brought your sister-in-law to visit, so we have to treat her to a meal anyway."

Chen Fan turned to Xu Jinqiu and said, "Qiu'er, ask Aunt Kong to stir-fry some vegetables and some stir-fried meat, so that people don't say that our family is stingy."

"Almost got it."

Xu Jinqiu rolled her eyes at her husband, held her daughter, and chatted with Yan Danqing aside. She didn't expect that being around two grown men, neither of them were good people.

Xu Jinqiu will be away for a few months and will only occasionally call to ask about the foundation's affairs. Yan Danqing happened to be coming over, so she can find out about it in advance.

“Overall, everything went smoothly, except that the scholarship was not enough.”

Yan Danqing sighed. This year's projects are mainly concentrated in the Sichuan-Shu and Guizhou-Guizhou regions, where there are a particularly large number of poor students.

In recent months, the number of poor students reported by the Volunteer Service Center has increased, which has shocked the headquarters, fearing that there will be more cases of false claims.

Liu Qing and Yan Danqing immediately decided to send a group of people from the Supervision Department to conduct an audit.

But that’s the truth!
As a result, the financial pressure is particularly great. Funding poor students is not like building a school, which is a one-time deal and will take several years.

The current standard is not high, 5 yuan per month for primary school and 10 yuan per month for middle school. If we calculate it as 10 months a year, it would be 50-100 yuan.

And the number increases every year, and it is very huge.

Zeng Ali and Zhao Yuanyuan gave 1200 million US dollars last time. Xu Jinqiu originally wanted to start a new project this year, but after hearing what she said, he gave up the idea.

Keep this money as a scholarship!
"The funding gap will get bigger and bigger in the future!"

Xu Jinqiu realized this and realized that relying solely on Chen Fan for money would put a lot of pressure on Chen Fan.

After a moment's hesitation and asking Yan Danqing to wait, Xu Jinqiu called Zhou Wenya and said, "Wenya, go back to Hong Kong and mortgage all your supermarket stores, and then use them to speculate in futures."

Zhou Wenya was stunned. Is the boss lady playing such a big game?
Chinatown Supermarket currently has a total of 64 stores, all of which are medium to large. With the current rising property market, these stores are of high value.

Zhou Wenya was aware of Xu Jinqiu's financial pressure.

If she does charity work without restraint like she does, no amount of money would be enough to support her.

Because of this, Zhou Wenya admired him even more, for he was willing to spend so much money on charity and now he was even willing to mortgage his store.

The boss once said that these stores were the assets accumulated for the boss’ wife.

This time the boss pooled together funds to invest in Japanese stocks, and was reluctant to mortgage these stores. Unexpectedly, the boss's wife took action first.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Jinqiu continued the conversation: "How are our employees? Are there any who are dissatisfied with our benefits and treatment?"

Hearing this, Yan Danqing rolled her eyes at her.

Employees may complain about hard work and long business trips, but no one will complain about benefits and treatment.

At the end of last year, Xu Jinqiu waved his hand and gave everyone a salary increase. Although the income level is still not as high as that of foreign companies, it is almost the same and several times that of state-owned enterprises.

Yan Danqing herself also has a high salary. What’s even more amazing is that her current income is actually higher than that of her husband, parents-in-law, and grandfather, making her the one with the highest income in the family.

With this income level, it is the only one in the country.

“As long as everyone is satisfied!”

Xu Jinqiu has always believed that what Chen Fan said makes sense. If employees can't live well themselves, how can they have the mind to help others?

We cannot use moral blackmail and let our employees shine for love.

The benefits and treatment must be fully guaranteed, and then he asked: "How is our community? Can we move in by the end of the year?"

"It's almost been renovated and we can move in next month." Yan Danqing couldn't help but laugh when he said this: "Many of our employees like to go to the community when they have nothing to do. They are all looking forward to living in the new house."

Xu Jinqiu hummed, and carried the child to the living room: "Boss Chen, the foundation's residential complex is almost finished, and everyone is going to move in. Can you sponsor us?"

"Sponsor what?" Chen Fan was stunned.

The houses are all furnished and are currently allocated for living. After working for five years, the property rights will be registered in the employee's name.

"Home appliances!" said Teacher Xu.

Chen Fan was slightly stunned, but without delay, he picked up the phone and called Lao Gu. It was okay to give a TV to each family.

I also heard from Lao Gu that they had started producing washing machines, so I decided to include them in the production. This would also make life easier for the foundation's employees and save them time on doing laundry.

"As expected of Boss Chen, so generous!"

Sun Shaojie was happy too, as his wife also worked at the foundation. He had his own house and his own appliances.

"When have you ever been stingy, bro?"

Chen Fan glared at him and immediately changed the subject: "Has the port project been finalized? Why is there less and less progress after more than half a year?"

"It's not that simple. From site selection, surveying, design, evaluation to final project approval, it would be great if it can be finalized after the Chinese New Year."

Sun Shaojie smiled and said teasingly, "If we decide now, can you afford it? Don't forget, you still owe 300 million US dollars for the previous project."

Chen Fan was disappointed. He really didn't have much money.

It cannot be said that there is no money. Some companies, such as telecommunications, electricity, and supermarkets, still have some money in their accounts, but they just don't want to touch it.

However, compared with the projects to be invested in, the money in the account is not enough.

If many projects want to be fully implemented, the bulk of the funds will have to come from the Japanese. It depends on how much meat we can cut from the Japanese in the next few years.

After chatting for a while, Kong Lanchun had prepared dinner and treated the couple to a meal. Using the excuse that it was getting dark, Chen Fan sent them away.

I feel uncomfortable when I see his six and a half kilograms!
This couple has never been able to hold their farts in. Next time, if he brings six and a half kilograms, they won’t let him in the door.

Zeng Ali found it funny to hear Chen Fan cursing. She could imagine that twenty years later, when the new son-in-law came to the house, he would definitely not be welcomed by him.

"Where is my daughter?" Chen Fan turned around and asked.

"The nurse is taking her to breastfeed. Oh, there's something I want to tell you."

Zeng Ali took her husband's arm and said seriously, "According to the custom in our hometown, when our daughter is born, we have to go back to the family tree during the New Year. Are we going back to our hometown to celebrate the New Year this year?"

Last year, the house in my hometown was built.

But everyone was busy, so I didn't go back. I really should go back this year.

Every year when a child is born in the village, they are all entered into the family tree during the Chinese New Year. It is relatively simple to have a daughter, but if it is a boy, one has to go to the ancestral hall to get a red lantern to hang at the door.

Zeng Ali had stayed in the village for such a long time the last time he went there, and he was familiar with all these customs. Since he had recognized his relatives in his hometown and was included in the family tree, he should follow the customs of his hometown.

The most important thing is that she had never been pregnant before, but she got pregnant after returning to her hometown to donate money to pave the road. She believed that it was the blessing of her ancestors. Now that she has a child, she has to go back and burn incense for her ancestors.

"Then go back to celebrate the New Year. There are many activities in my hometown during the New Year. I can stay for a while longer. It's still a long time before the New Year, so I can arrange things in advance."

"The most urgent thing now is Ajing's wedding."

Hearing this, Chen Fan was very upset. It was naturally a good thing that his sister-in-law was getting married, but she was very unkind and found a man who was three years older than her.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he became my brother-in-law!

Every time she spoke, she would precede it with the word "brother-in-law". I don't know how I had offended that girl that she had to make such a scene.

Seeing him like this, Zeng Ali couldn't help but slap him: "What's the matter? Are you not happy to be called brother-in-law?"

Chen Fan said with a sullen smile, "How can I not be happy? It's not our turn to worry about Ajing's wedding. The elders have taken care of everything. We might as well think about what to give them."

"What do you think?" Zeng Ali asked back.
