rebirth good people have good rewards

Chapter 55

On the first day of the new year, I work out in the morning, go shopping in the afternoon, and drink in the evening.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, exercise in the morning, go shopping in the afternoon, and drink in the evening.

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, I work out in the morning, go shopping in the afternoon, and drink in the evening.
For several days, Chen Ming was dragged by Yan Na to buy and buy every day, and at night he would send her to sing and drink. The days were monotonous but not boring.

He felt that Yan Na seemed to be different from before, but he couldn't tell the difference, except that she was more free and easy, and the two of them seemed to be closer.

He said he was shopping every day, but in fact the money he spent was not too much. Yan Na took him to shopping malls with ordinary prices, and it only cost 2000 yuan to buy three or four items in one afternoon. Don't even look at it.

On the evening of the fourth day, Yan Na finally told him that he didn't need to go shopping tomorrow, more and more bars were opening, and she also started picking up jobs in the afternoon.

Chen Ming breathed a sigh of relief and started looking for a house after working out the next day.

After resting for the past three days, he rethought the plan of opening a nursing home several times in his heart. He added a lot of ideas, which can be regarded as a reorganization of his thoughts, and his determination to do this has become stronger.

In life, always do something, even if not for others, just for yourself.

Houses in Shanghai stock market are expensive, but only the urban area is expensive, and the suburbs are actually pretty average, at least within Chen Ming’s acceptable range. The driver took him to look at four places in one afternoon, and two of them could satisfy his needs. Require.

Chen Ming didn't like to procrastinate when doing things, so he set a time limit for himself from the very beginning. He gave himself three days to find a house. No matter how many places he traveled within three days, he had to settle for a house!
In the end, the location of the nursing home was set at half an hour's drive from the city. There are two villas next to each other. The road is at the door, and the traffic is quite convenient. It is said that a rich man built it for himself before, and then he went bankrupt. So it was sold to someone else.

Although this location is not very ideal, the advantage is that there are enough rooms, and it also comes with a small garden of more than 200 square meters, which is a bit small, but it is still possible to go for a walk.

And the advantage of having more rooms is that you can make several different activity rooms. Chen Ming has already thought about it. When the time comes, buy a table tennis table and a pool table. There are many other options. Each house has one function. How great!

It is probably because it is hard to find long-term villa renters, so the rent here is not expensive, more than 3 yuan a month, the price is very good for such a large area, Chen Ming paid the deposit immediately, and agreed to sign the contract the next day .

Although, he called Zhang Zhe and told him that the house had been found. Zhang Zhe was very happy when he heard about it, and was about to come over at that time. After Chen Ming persuaded him, he changed it to come together when signing the contract tomorrow. .

Zhang Zhe and Chen Lu both came the next day. They were very satisfied with the environment here. The decoration of this villa is good. Those rooms were originally used as bedrooms, and there are not many places that need to be redecorated. The three of them discussed the plan , Chen Ming called the decoration team that Li Menglin had hired to decorate the office before. Several of their masters are still in the Shanghai stock market, and it just so happens that there is nothing to do during the Chinese New Year.

Because it is not very complicated, the decoration time is very fast. It is expected to be completed in about ten days. The main thing is to make beds and cabinets, which are almost all carpentry work, and the work is fast.

Chen Ming had a good talk with Zhang Zhe and Chen Lu about his own ideas, and finally succeeded in persuading them to simply work with him as an intern, but at their insistence, the salary was set a little lower, only 2000 yuan per month per person , it is only enough for the travel expenses to come to the nursing home, but fortunately both of them are locals, otherwise it would not be enough to count the rent.

The matters of chefs, caregivers, security guards, cleaning staff, and recruitment were left to Chen Lu, while Zhang Zhe was responsible for handling business licenses and related procedures. He had little experience in this area. Chen Ming asked Li Menglin to assist. Li Menglin was worried about the boss suddenly wanting to open a nursing home. Although she was surprised, she didn't show it at all, and she didn't ask any questions. Anyway, she did whatever the boss asked her to do and just obeyed the order.

Originally, users of Love Loan needed to make donations if they wanted interest reduction or exemption. Now there is a nursing home as a way to donate. Chen Ming asked the developers to add an interface to the Love Loan app. After clicking it, you can see the introduction of the nursing home and the website link. , there is also a donation button, where the donation system will record it directly, and there is no need to provide additional receipts or invoices.

The reason why he wants to set up a nursing home website is because Chen Ming is worried that the donations received will be used for other purposes. He plans to record the amount and source of each donation in detail on the website. List it clearly and announce it in real time. Since you really want to do charity, you must be open and transparent.

At the same time, everyone can also see a detailed introduction to the nursing home and internal pictures on this website. What will happen in the nursing home in the future, what activities are held, or what groups come to donate money and materials, etc. can be seen on the website. , In this way, it can be regarded as an additional channel of publicity. On the one hand, it can make it easier for those lonely and widowed elderly to contact themselves, and on the other hand, it may also allow more people to join the charity team, killing two birds with one stone!
Everything is going on in an orderly manner. The website of the nursing home does not need to be too complicated, so I found a temporary outsourcing team. Every day, Chen Ming and the others can put forward suggestions for modifications to the website, and the progress of everything is progressing. Go forward.

"Mr. Chen! Come here!"

The formalities were almost done, Chen Ming was discussing with Zhang Zhe whether to put a big screen or a projector in the lobby, when he heard Chen Lu calling him, he hurried over and asked, "What's the matter?"

Chen Lu pointed to the computer screen: "Look here, according to your request, we have also published the salaries of the staff on the website. It’s much higher than that in the past, will anyone question this if they donate money in the future?”

Chen Mingqi said: "Compared with the operating expenses of a nursing home, the wages of these staff are actually nothing. Will some people question this?"

"I think there is such a possibility. There are everyone on the Internet. Some keyboard warriors like to find trouble all day long. He doesn't even consider that the salaries of these staff should be included in the legitimate expenses of the nursing home. He only thinks that your salary is fixed. It's too high, and I'm using this method to make money for myself!"

Chen Ming sighed, "Then what should I do, you mean to lower the salary?"

Chen Lu nodded: "Yes, I think this can avoid a lot of criticism, otherwise it may affect the donation of nursing homes in the future. For a charity, credibility is the most important thing. Once it is questioned, it is difficult to explain."

"The salary must not be reduced. Only in this way can we ensure the quality of life of the elderly here." Chen Ming thought for a while and made a decision: "Let's do this. The salary will not be announced, and this part of the cost will not be included in the expenses of the nursing home in the future. Don’t use donations, I will bear the responsibility alone!”

What he said made Chen Lu and Zhang Zhe feel admiration. They both felt that being a volunteer before was worthless, and only the last half month was really counted as making a contribution to society!

More than 20 days later, all preparations were completed and the elderly care apartment was officially opened!
