Chapter 902: Chapter 902: Earning Money Without Forgetting to Give Back

In the days leading up to the New Year, Luo Qiao finally did not have to go to school anymore. Her belly had grown frighteningly large, and she had intentionally begun to ensure she received enough nutrition without overeating.

Lu Yichen discussed with Luo Qiao that day, "Qiao Bao, you’re on holiday now. How about I take you to stay with your grandfather? With Auntie Tang and your aunt there, they will definitely take good care of you."

As the New Year was approaching, their office was busy with various matters. Moreover, her aunt had called several times, urging them to come and stay as soon as they were on holiday, as having many family members around would definitely ensure good care.

Since Luo Qiao still had some matters to attend to, she thought for a moment, "Let’s go back the afternoon after tomorrow. I still have some issues to deal with, and it wouldn’t be convenient at my grandfather’s place."

Lu Yichen nodded and said, "Alright, as you wish."

Luo Qiao knew that the managers from each division would arrive in Capital City before noon today, so she called Xu Shifan and asked him and his sister to come over first and also to reserve a private room at Jinyuan Garden to welcome everyone in the evening.

The Yipin Bases in various locations had operated well that year, truly achieving cyclical utilization. The leaves and lower-quality fruits and vegetables from Yipin Vegetables went into Yipin Livestock, and the manure produced by Yipin Livestock, after fermentation, was all sent to enrich Yipin Vegetables and Yipin Flowers.

Due to the superior quality, there was a supply shortage in every region. Moreover, since they had dealt with some people targeting the Yipin Base in the past and everyone knew that Yipin had powerful backing, no one troubled them afterward.

It wasn’t that no one tried to replicate their model, but the quality of the fruits and vegetables they grew could not compare to those produced by Yipin Base. Compared to ordinary farms, the only difference was their larger scale and volume.

However, due to the poor quality and taste, they couldn’t sell at a high price. Coupled with occasional pests and diseases, the losses were considerable. Not to mention livestock, which fell far short of Yipin’s sanitary standards in meat quality. Neglect in care could lead to epidemics, resulting in even greater losses.

Thus, most of the imitators lost money, and eventually, no one challenged Yipin anymore.

When Xu Shifan and Xu Yuqing arrived, they brought with them this half-year’s ledger. Luo Qiao briefly looked it over and, finding no issues, said, "After the New Year, buy an office floor in the business district. If a single floor isn’t available, buy a whole building. We’ll need it later."

Xu Shifan responded, "Okay, I’ll handle it myself and notify you once there’s news."

Xu Yuqing then asked, "About the school donation we discussed earlier, what’s the budget for next year? We’d like to arrange it after the New Year."

Luo Qiao picked up the ledger again and checked the profits, "Let’s tentatively set next year’s budget at 100,000. We must ensure quality. I will appoint professionals to conduct inspections. If it’s not up to standard, you’ll be fully responsible. I don’t want any problems with the schools I fund in the future."

Xu Yufan said, "You can rest assured on that count. I’ll have people cross-check each other to prevent any issues."

Xu Shifan thought for a moment, "What about the funding for impoverished students in the donated schools? Will there be additional slots provided?"

Luo Qiao considered, "Give ten slots per year to the donated schools, prioritizing children from financially difficult backgrounds who excel academically. You need to send someone to investigate onsite and help truly needy children benefit from education. If there are special circumstances, you can decide on the best approach."

Xu Shifan nodded, "Good, I’ll ensure strict oversight."

After discussing some other matters and seeing that it was about time, they left and took a taxi to Jinyuan Garden.

Currently, all regional managers of Yipin Vegetables were shareholders in Yipin, and they were all absolutely loyal to Luo Qiao. It wasn’t that no one had tried to poach them.

However, the salaries offered by those people were not higher than what Luo Qiao offered. They knew that without Yipin Vegetables, they would be nothing. When they signed the shareholding contracts, it was clearly stated that they could switch jobs, but if they left, they would automatically forfeit their shares.

Over the years, they had understood that without the seeds provided by the headquarters, they would be no different from those imitating them elsewhere. Essentially, the root of Yipin Base lay in its seeds.
