A Stay-at-home Dad's Restaurant In An Alternate World - Chapter 1893

Chapter 1893: Can Amy Invest?
Luna was looking at Mag with an admiring gaze. Mr. Mag could always find the crux of the problem wisely, and made impressive suggestions.

“However, it isn’t easy to build a new school. Looking for a location is still easy, but where can we find the appropriate teachers?” Luna said with doubt.

“The issue with the teachers is very easy to resolve too. Our objective is to let the children attend school first, so we can put teaching the practical skills and professional courses aside first. Hence, we can try to rehire the teachers who retired from Chaos School.

“Then, we can openly recruit a batch of outstanding young people, and as the Chaos School has been recruiting teachers, there should be many reserve teachers recently. We have quite a lot of choices.

“The experienced teachers will lead the new teachers, and we will soon establish a start-up teaching team to meet the problem of the children’s enrollment issue,” Mag answered.

Luna’s eyes became even brighter, and she nodded. “The Chaos City indeed has many retired teachers. If they are willing to be reemployed, and impart their years of teaching experience to the new teachers, they will definitely set things on the right path very quickly. However, building a new school isn’t a small matter. There has only been one Chaos School in Chaos City for so many years. I wonder if the city lord’s castle will approve the permit?”

Mag looked at Luna smilingly. “Leave the planning of the new school premises and negotiating with the city lord’s castle to me, but you will have to handle the rehiring of the retired teachers and the recruitment of the new teachers, Teacher Luna. It’s almost 20 days until the new term. We might be able to let the children go to school in the new year if we hurry up.”

“Alright. I will ask the school office to sort out the list of retired teachers after I go back today, and then visit them one by one.” Luna nodded, feeling very energized. It would be fantastic if they could let all the children go to school.

Irina came over, and smilingly said, “If you guys only need teachers to teach the basic courses, there are some librarians and private teachers to the nobles among the Night Elves, perhaps they will be able to help.”

“That’s great.” Luna’s eyes glowed. Elves’ long lifespan and learning ability that far exceed the other races gave them astonishing knowledge. Moreover, the librarians and private teachers were the best among them. Luna bowed to Irina, and said with appreciation, “Thank you so much.”

“You don’t have to thank me. What you are doing is the real admirable work,” Irina said to Luna sincerely.

Amy suddenly came over, and looked at Luna expectantly. “Can Amy invest if Teacher Luna wants to build a new school?”

“Little Amy, do you want to invest your pocket money?” Luna looked at Amy smilingly. She didn’t expect that the little one knew how to use the word “invest.” “However, we are not doing business, but letting more children go to school. Therefore, you cannot invest with us.”

“Actually, I have a suggestion, Teacher Luna. If we want to manage this new school in the long run, I think we should run it like a business. Anything that is run by love cannot survive in the long term.

“We should give the outstanding teachers who are reemployed a higher salary, and we should also give those new teachers the same salary and benefits as teachers enjoy in Chaos School. We can’t shortchange the children and disappoint the teachers. Apart from respect, we should also give them a salary that allows them to have a respectable life.

“Only then can we recruit excellent teachers, and let the children have better education.

“And all this needs a lot of funding. Depending on the foundation for funds alone isn’t a long-term solution. We need it to be able to earn its funds itself.

“Our objective in the start-up period is to let those children from disadvantaged backgrounds attend school. However, if our school is good enough, I believe the residents of Chaos City will be willing to send their children to our school, and we can accept reasonable school fees to be used as the school’s operation funds.

“Although what we are doing is public welfare, we should do it as a business and as an enterprise so even if the foundation failed to get funds one day, the school could still support itself and continue its operations.” Mag looked at Luna as he commented seriously.

Luna pondered seriously after hearing that, and her gaze slowly cleared up. She looked at Mag. “So, how should we operate?”

After thinking for a while, Mag said, “We will use the foundation’s current funding as the start-up fund, and then accept a portion of external investment, but the absolute control of the school has to be held by the foundation. Given the foundation’s current scale and what we need to do later, you will need to hire an accounting team to share the load on the financial scope so that we can be more professional and transparent.”

Luna nodded, took out a little booklet from her bag, and recorded what Mag had said.

Irina looked at Mag with surprise. She didn’t expect that he would have such professional understanding in that area. There was another area that spurred her curiosity besides his culinary skills.

“Then, can I invest now?” Amy blinked. Her father said before that investment was what made money give birth to more money. She loved baby money the most.

“Then, how much is Little Amy investing? Teacher will record it now for you,” Luna smiling said, feeling very gratified with Amy’s enthusiasm.

Amy thought for a moment before replying, “Is 100,000,000 enough?”

“Huh?”

Luna was stunned.

The originally noisy restaurant slowly quieted down. Everyone was looking at Amy with shock.

“Is it too little?” Amy looked at everyone, who had weird expressions. After thinking seriously for another moment, she said, “Then, I will add another 100,000,000.”

“Little Amy, 100,000,000 is a lot of money.” Luna chuckled rather helplessly. The little one had to be confused about the number.

“Yes. I know there are a lot of zeros.” Amy nodded. “But I really have it. You can ask my father if you don’t believe me.”

Luna and everyone turned to look at Mag.

“Amy received quite a big sum of money when she took part in the tournament. I will agree with her if she wants to invest 100,000,000 copper coins to build the new school.” Mag nodded with a smile.

“That means Little Boss has already earned her very first 100,000,000 when she is only four years old?” Gjerj gulped in disbelief.

“So, Little Amy has secretly become the richest woman among us,” Yabemiya said, also with astonishment.

Luna also couldn’t hide her surprise when she heard that. One had to know that Amy couldn’t even have a full meal a few months ago, but now she was going to donate 100,000,000 copper coins to build a completely new school.
