From abandoned baby to CEO

Chapter 697 Nouveau riche

Sun Xue has made plans, and there is about a month left before the school holidays.

During this one month, we looked for a school site, decorated it, recruited teachers, and did publicity and enrollment.

One month is enough.

She plans to locate the new school near the current training school.

But after running for a few days, she felt a little disappointed.

Things weren't going as well as she expected.

I barely found a few, but either the rent was too high and not cost-effective, or the location was very remote.

Finally, she found a relatively satisfactory one, but when she went to pay the deposit, the landlord suddenly changed his mind, saying that another boss had offered a higher price and planned to use the place as a factory.

Sun Xue was very indignant about the landlord's dishonesty, "How can you do business like this?"

The landlord said with a joking smile, "I'm sorry, but we do business with whoever offers the highest price."

Sun Xue could only be speechless about such a landlord.

After several days of running around, Sun Xue still didn't find an ideal school location.

Sun Xue thought of looking for houses online.

Unexpectedly, her method was really effective and she soon found a good place.

This property is located near the university town in Quancheng City. It has a good geographical location and most importantly, the previous owner was engaged in skills training.

After making the call, Sun Xue rushed to the university town to meet her boss.

The boss’s surname is Su, he is in his fifties, his name is Su Qiang, and his accent sounds like he is from another place.

The name sounds very positive, but it still reminds her of the liar Su Jing who had already run away and has not been heard from since.

Boss Su looks very capable. The gold chain around his neck, the big gold watch on his wrist, and the jewel rings on his fingers make him look particularly eye-catching.

As soon as Sun Xue saw his style, she knew that this was another typical nouveau riche.

When Sun Xue saw Boss Su take out a pack of red Zhonghua cigarettes from the briefcase under his armpit, she confirmed her guess.

She remembered very clearly that when her father's business was at its peak, he always carried this brand of cigarettes in his purse and in his car.

It’s a pity that his father is too poor to afford this kind of cigarette anymore.

Boss Su was very enthusiastic and took Sun Xue to visit the three-story school with an area of ​​800 square meters.

"Xiao Sun, what kind of business are you planning to start by renting this place?"

"Work in the training industry." Out of sensitivity, Sun Xue did not tell Boss Su that she was going to do English training.

Boss Su praised, "Xiao Sun, you have a really good eye. This place has a good geographical location, close to the university town, convenient transportation, and a large flow of people. It is most suitable for training."

"Look at how beautifully I've decorated this place. You don't even need to decorate it when you come here. Everything is ready-made. You can just change the brand and start doing business. You don't know that when I rented this place, the decoration fee, classroom chairs, and various equipment alone cost me nearly three hundred thousand yuan."

Sun Xue was a little puzzled. "Boss Su, you said you were doing skills training, why did you suddenly think of subletting it? Is business not good?"

Boss Su lit up a cigarette, his tone full of pride, "If my son abroad hadn't insisted that I take care of his grandson, I would never have given up this business."

"Guess what he said? He said, Dad, you are old, why do you work so hard? It's time to enjoy life, take care of your grandchildren, and take you around the world. Isn't that great?"

Sun Xue couldn't help but ask enviously, "Boss Su, your son must be a big boss abroad, right?"

"He's not really a big boss. He said he can only make 5-6 million a year."

Sun Xue exclaimed, "That's already amazing."

Boss Su looked a little sad. "Xiao Sun, I don't want to go abroad either. You know how deep my feelings are for China after living there all my life. I'm going back to my roots. No matter how good life is abroad, I won't have a sense of belonging!"

"Like me, I can make millions of dollars a year in skills training. My family can live a comfortable life. But my son has been pushing me for several years. Alas!"

When talking about this, Su Qiang's eyes were filled with reluctance.

Even Sun Xue was infected by his emotions and comforted him, "Boss Su, it's your blessing to have such an outstanding son!"

Su Qiang smiled and said, "That's right, my son is my pride."

After visiting the school, it was time for dinner, and Su Qiang insisted on inviting Sun Xue to dinner.

Sun Xue felt that the specific details of renting the house still needed to be negotiated with Boss Su, and chatting while eating was also a good method. Besides, her previous conversation with Boss Su had given her a pretty good first impression.

Without thinking twice, she agreed readily.

The two chose a restaurant of decent quality.

After they sat down, Boss Su handed the menu to Sun Xue with a smile, "Xiao Sun, order whatever you like. It's my treat today."

These words made Sun Xue feel very warm in her heart.

Looking at the high-priced dishes on the menu, Sun Xue hesitated for a moment, and finally ordered some home-cooked dishes.

Seeing the three home-cooked dishes ordered by Sun Xue, Su Qiang gave Sun Xue a thumbs up and said, "Xiao Sun, you look like a very simple boss. It's people like you that I admire the most."

While waiting for the food to be served, Sun Xue immediately got to the point, "Boss Su, how much does it cost to rent a house like yours for a year?"

"Six hundred thousand a year."

Sun Xue widened her eyes in shock, "So expensive?"

"Xiao Sun, you have to know that this is in the university town, a prime location, not like the suburbs."

Sun Xue shook her head. "It's still too expensive."

Su Qiang took a deep puff of his cigarette, stubbed out the butt, and said seriously, "The rent is supposed to be paid for a year at a time, but if you're short of money, I have a good idea."

Su Qiang looked at Sun Xue with a smile.

"What's a good idea?"

Su Qiang lit another cigarette and spoke slowly, "If you are short of money, you can pay half a year's rent first, so that you will have less pressure."

Seeing Sun Xue hesitating, Su Qiang immediately added, "I think you are really good, a very down-to-earth person. Normally, I would pay you for a year at a time."

"It's still a bit expensive. I'll think about it again."

"Xiao Sun, you should know that I spent 300,000 yuan on the renovation. You have also seen how the school is decorated. You should be happy with this price."

The house was indeed nice, but the rent for half a year alone was three hundred thousand, so Sun Xue began to back off.

Sun Xue shook her head. "It's still too expensive."

"Two hundred and eighty thousand, Xiaosun, it can't be any less. If it's any less, I won't even be able to earn enough to pay for the renovation."

Boss Su said with a cruel heart.
