At least for the short-term, only the wealthy could afford such consumption. As for the Yunwu tea or Nightingale tea, the supplies were rather limited. The only way to increase the supply would be for Finn Lewis to cultivate on a large scale. But large-scale cultivation is not easily sustainable, and there are certain justifications for not supporting vast cultivation.
About half an hour later, Olivia Thatcher suddenly spoke, “Young Master, I have found that this foundation is quite similar to our own charity foundation. It’s non-profit and solely devoted to charity. All the funds are provided by the members themselves, just like our foundation. They don’t seek any recognition, only to anonymously assist those in need after careful verification.”
“Hmm,” said Finn Lewis, nodding in slight surprise.
“The foundation has been established for around 11 years. Currently, there’s not many members, only 27 in total. These people raise money for the foundation in various ways, and never resort to any unacceptable methods. Many people even regularly donate their inflexible income to the foundation. Over the years, they’ve spent around 340 million and helped 1,746 people,” Olivia quickly relayed the main data.
Finn Lewis nodded quietly. Earning 340 million in 11 years seemed minimal, even pitiful. However, considering that these so-called third generations had no source of income and raised money through diverse legal methods, this amount was no longer negligible.
Moreover, the people they helped were as Sarah Wood stated, they were mistreated by certain individuals despite being innocent. They attempted to restore their reputation by aiding these people, though their method seemed a bit naive.
Finn Lewis shook his head. Even if they were doing real work, not many people knew. Even if people found out, reputations weren’t so easily restored. As they say, destruction is always easier than construction. Twenty years of hard work might be ruined by one degenerate in a split second.
However, at least they were taking action and helping people, regardless of their initial intention. As long as they helped people, their efforts weren’t in vain.
But Finn Lewis couldn’t understand it. Surely, these so-called third generations should have some talented leaders among them. However, this was none of his concern. If it were up to him, he wouldn’t recommend a Prodigal in the foundation.
Since they were already taking action, and Olivia was keeping an eye on things, he could withdraw at any time. But he had to think about how to spend his money. He didn’t want to get too involved with them, just help them out occasionally.
Interestingly, some troublemakers can only be handled by these individuals. But those like Sarah Wood were quite unusual. Finn Lewis pondered – if he revealed the purpose of the foundation online, how many people would believe it? Probably not many.
However, Finn Lewis didn’t currently require their help. Therefore he could contact them later when he needed them. After making his decision, he asked T800 to destroy the USB flash drive. As Kay Lee and Sarah Wood approached, Finn Lewis was deep in thought.
“Finished with your work?” Finn Lewis asked with a smile.
“Yes,” Kay Lee replied, smiling. She looked around and remarked, “It’s really hard to believe that so many people are visiting our shop despite the high prices. It feels as busy as some of the popular shops.”
Finn Lewis laughed, “This is just the beginning. It will probably be less packed in the future.”
“Not necessarily,” Sarah from the side shook her head and commented, “The number of customers will definitely increase. In the future, the number of people coming here to drink tea each day may not be a small figure.”
“Speaking of which, about membership restriction, do either of you have any thoughts?” Finn asked after giving it some deliberation.
“Well, this is the right move. Currently, we are letting a large number of people in because we just started. However, I have made a rough estimate, and although we can’t say that we have been able to attract all the rich in the country, almost all of the top-tier wealthy group has already gotten in,” Kay Lee said after some thought.
“If too many ordinary people are allowed in, it won’t be good news. After all, for these rich people, they have no interest in getting to know ordinary wealthy people. I also think you should limit the number of people. However, another point is that your Purple Crystal Card should not be limited to only one person. If you want to limit the number,” Sarah Wood on the side also gave her thoughts after some thought.
“Elaborate on that,” Finn immediately responded with a thoughtful nod.
“Firstly, you establish a system where the Purple Crystal Card must be used by the original owner. In other words, other people can’t use someone else’s Purple Crystal Card. But the card can admit others, for example, each Purple Crystal Card can admit a maximum of ten people, but the expenditures of those admitted will be borne by the owner of the Purple Crystal Card. Actually, that’s not a problem for people who come here. They don’t care about money. But they are people too, and they also have the mentality of comparing with others,” Sarah Wood quickly said.
“You have such clear thoughts. Why don’t you start a business?” Finn curiously asked, looking at Sarah. Kay Lee had no other thoughts.
But Sarah heard other meanings in Finn’s words. She spoke helplessly, “My family doesn’t allow me to conduct business. It’s not that I can’t, but if I do business and make money, people will always have something to say.”
Finn Lewis nodded thoughtfully after understanding Sarah’s meaning. He thought for a while and said, “But it should be okay for you to work, right?”
“What? You want to hire me? Let me tell you first, I do not have a major in financial management,” Sarah Wood quickly said.
“I have such an idea, but haven’t thought it through yet. When I have a suitable position for you, I will call you,” Finn Lewis thought for a while. He was not very familiar with Sarah Wood. He decided to let Olivia start collecting some information about Sarah Wood in the evening. Her identity and background weren’t important, the primary task of Olivia was to evaluate if Sarah Wood has any special skills or talents..
