Chapter 2365
He's good at fooling people
There are currently no sunscreen brands in mainland China; we are referring to industrially manufactured products.
But at Xiaoqian's level, he naturally knows what sunscreen should be.
There are some at the Overseas Chinese Store in Beidaihe.
Many women who travel there will go to the pigeon market to exchange for shopping vouchers and spend a lot of money to buy a bottle of that, just to avoid getting a tan when they go swimming in the sea.
Xiao Qian must have gone to Beidaihe for vacation before, so it's normal for him to know these things.
But he probably didn't realize that the ultraviolet radiation in Beidaihe is very different from that in small southern towns.
Seeing that Xiao Qian didn't care, He Yuzhu didn't think about reminding her.
In a day or two, when Xiao Qian's skin peels so badly it resembles vitiligo, he will understand the dangers of the southern sun.
No, even without the sun over there, you can easily get sunburned.
The main difference between the two is that on the southern beach, without any protection, you'll get sunburned in just half an hour.
In Beidaihe, under the same conditions, it would probably last for about an hour.
Furthermore, the medical clinics in Beidaihe are experienced and will use calamine lotion on sunburn sufferers...
In the south, the locals are not afraid.
Outsiders who go there often don't realize that they'll inevitably get tricked or ripped off once or twice.
He Yuzhu didn't know at first either.
However, after he went to Hong Kong Island, Lou Xiao'e prepared all these things for him very well.
Furthermore, he also enjoyed the process of applying sunscreen to Lou Xiao'e, who was wearing a swimsuit.
He Yuzhu shook his head, shaking off the inappropriate images in his mind.
Only then did he seriously explain the matter of the large market to Xiao Qian.
"...For those seeking investment from outside, I've hired an expert to accompany you on the evaluation process."
They know better than you what kind of stall it is and what the prices are.
For booths advertised by our school, we collect 80% of the booth fee, and will re-evaluate after three years.
"For those families facing particularly difficult circumstances, the tuition is waived for six months, and then 50% will be charged after six months..." He Yuzhu said, taking notes as he spoke, occasionally scratching his neck.
After He Yuzhu finished giving his instructions, Xiao Qian coughed and said, "You mean, you want me to be the bad guy, right?"
"Nonsense, you're the head of general affairs for our college. If you don't play the villain, am I supposed to?" He Yuzhu didn't give Xiao Qian any face at all.
Xiao Qian scratched his head, clicked his tongue, and said, "Are you blocking my path to advancement?"
He Yuzhu chuckled but did not answer.
A moment later, Teacher Qian chuckled softly.
Actually, they both understood.
Even if He Yuzhu were to step down from his position as principal.
The successor will either be Chen Yong or someone sent down from above; it's definitely not Xiao Qian.
His foundation is really too weak.
He graduated from the Normal University, and his biggest backer was He Yuzhu.
When He Yuzhu goes to argue with his superiors for favors, it's either because he's the one who offends people.
His position is now permanently tied to his role in general affairs.
When He Yuzhu leaves his position as principal, the best outcome for him is that Chen Yong takes over, and then he can continue to hold this position.
If a second or third person were to become the principal, he would have better resign voluntarily.
Their interests have been intertwined ever since He Yuzhu applied to run the CNC Academy.
He Yuzhu asked him to do something that would offend people, but in fact, he wasn't unhappy at all; on the contrary, he felt a sense of satisfaction from being trusted.
A scholar will die for one who understands him!
The expert that He Yuzhu invited was Xu Damao.
That bastard, ever since he accepted He Yuzhu's commission that day, he had reserved the best spot in the market.
He Yuzhu didn't immediately agree, but instead asked Xu Damao how much he was willing to pay for the position. Xu Damao initially quoted twenty, but He Yuzhu chuckled and shook his head.
That bastard treated him like a clueless idiot.
She actually thought of taking advantage of him.
Later, Xu Damao gritted his teeth and slowly increased the price.
When the price reached sixty-five, He Yuzhu finally relented and quoted a final price of sixty-six.
Xu Damao readily agreed.
How is this account calculated?
In essence, it combines all the parts mentioned earlier into one.
The venue fee, management fee, taxes, and sanitation fee are all included, and He Yuzhu estimates it to be around fifty to eighty yuan.
He could refuse Xu Damao a single penny if it were his own storefront.
But this belongs to the public, and he didn't want to cause any gossip.
Therefore, 66 yuan a month should be a reasonable figure.
The management fees and taxes mentioned here might be difficult to explain clearly.
After all, these days management fees and taxes are charged as a percentage of the transaction amount.
It has considerable flexibility in the middle.
But these days, there's another way to deal with private shops – a fixed tax.
That is, to roughly estimate the store's monthly turnover and then set a standard.
If we really charged based on actual revenue, then probably no one would want to play anymore.
Since He Yuzhu dared to take on this matter so readily, it means he has the ability to resolve things with the tax authorities.
There's no such thing as using connections or back channels in this kind of thing.
When a new venue opens, local authorities should always provide some support.
"Principal, isn't it a bit of a frivolous thing for us to do this?" Xiao Qian said jokingly.
He really didn't think highly of He Yuzhu's idea of doing this.
Their dormitory building, for example, has a row of stalls planned for the ground floor, with a maximum of about two hundred.
Taxes are none of their concern.
If all other expenses are covered, and each stall costs 35 yuan, the monthly income would be less than 10,000 yuan.
If he were still in elementary school, this income would have been a huge sum of money for him.
But now he's the head of general affairs at the CNC institute, and the two door manufacturing factories under him generate over ten million in profit annually.
How could he possibly be interested in this?
He Yuzhu shook his head and said with a wry smile, "We should look at things from a developmental perspective."
The large market we've developed is indeed not generating high revenue at present.
But think about the radiating effect of this huge market.
Will it attract a large portion of the small businesses in Beijing to that area?
How many people can be supported by the upstream and downstream industries, wholesale and retail?
How many families can become among the first to get rich?
Is it possible that someone who does well in business might think about opening a factory or something?
····
With more customers going there, will spending on other restaurants and similar establishments also increase? ...
He Yuzhu talked about these things with great enthusiasm, almost explaining to Xiao Qian the effect of a commercial complex on the surrounding property prices.
Although he didn't really understand it either.
Comrade Xiao Qian was dumbfounded; he was completely bewildered by He Yuzhu's calculations.
According to He Yuzhu's statement, they weren't thinking about earning some rent.
Instead, they are using their resources to support hundreds, even thousands, of small businesses and vendors.
They provide jobs for anywhere from a few thousand to tens of thousands of people.
Damn, no wonder he's a leader, he's got a silver tongue! (End of Chapter)
