Reborn in 2014: A One-Man Tycoon

It is very difficult to get approval from the county to build a university.

It must be several dozen acres.

However, if you want to build a world-class university, having less than a few dozen acres is still too meager.

"It's hard to find a suitable location with such a large area. Unless it's built on a mountain."

While everyone was carefully studying the map, Old Wei from the police station muttered something while pinching his brow.

Although the county's economy is among the best in the province.

But after all, it is mostly mountainous.

This has limited local development.

Only in the desolate mountains can one find a place that meets Meng Chuan's requirements.

"It's not feasible to go up the mountain; transportation is inconvenient..."

Wu County was about to refuse outright.

But Meng Chuan's eyes lit up:

"Mountains are fine too! Isn't Wuhan University's campus perched on Luojia Mountain? The campus is surrounded by rolling hills and has beautiful scenery, especially when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, attracting a large number of tourists. As for transportation, with money, why worry about not having roads?"

Meng Chuan said with a somewhat arrogant air.

Meng Chuan's words were a wake-up call.

Wu Xian and the others were also immediately impressed.

The development of mountainous areas is inherently very limited.

It could even be said that it has almost no value for development and utilization.

But when it comes to building schools, it doesn't matter whether it's in the mountains or the city center.

Wherever the school is, the students will be there.

The tranquil environment in the mountains is actually more suitable for teaching purposes.

Developing the mountainous area into a school might also boost tourism and make it a popular tourist destination.

This is a win-win-win situation.

"Then let's choose Yunxia Mountain. The mountain is not high, it covers an area of ​​more than 3000 mu, and it is only 20 minutes away from the county seat."

Wu Xian immediately pointed to a mountain on the map and said.

The mountain looks like a crescent moon on the map, embracing the county town.

Coincidentally, Meng Chuan's village is located on the other side of this mountain.

The straight-line distance is only about 20 minutes.

If a road were built directly to the village.

Many tourists can visit the school first, and then go to Mengchuan's village to visit the "Home of the Top Scholar".

If this school can be built, it will be a huge boost to the local tourism industry.

Therefore, the people from the tourism bureau were the first to sense the business opportunity and were so excited that their faces turned red.

“Student Meng, as long as you get the school’s approval, I can approve your land use right away.”

The most excited person was from Wu County.

This would be a huge achievement if the school could be completed during his term.

This will definitely be a great boost to his career.

He even wished Meng Chuan would start construction immediately.

“Meng, I wonder if you could give our county education bureau a chance to work with you on this project? That way, the approval process might be simplified a bit more.”

Old Shi from the Education Bureau mustered his courage and spoke up.

This wasn't because he wanted a share of the profits from the Mengchuan project.

The main point is that if the education bureau gets involved, it will be perfectly legitimate, and the approval process will naturally be simplified.

Because of the involvement of the Education Bureau, it is a directly affiliated institution with impeccable credentials!

However, Lao Shi also knew that Meng Chuan was a businessman, and that building a school was definitely for profit.

They may not want the education bureau to get involved, as this could create obstacles.

“No problem! I didn’t build the school for profit. I want to build a non-profit college with free tuition. All students who enroll will receive a monthly living allowance, regardless of their family’s financial situation.”

Meng Chuan said.

After Meng Chuan said this, the room fell silent once again.

Completely free? And they even subsidize students' living expenses?

What kind of level of thought is this?

"Meng, are you... are you telling the truth?"

Wu Xian suddenly grabbed Meng Chuan's hand.

Extremely excited.

This is absolutely a good thing for the country and its people.

If all merchants in the world could have the mindset of Meng Chuan.

Why worry about the lack of education?

Why worry about the nation's decline?

"What's fake about it? The idea that those who get rich first should help those who get rich later was an important development concept put forward in the early stages of my country's reform and opening up."

Meng Chuan smiled calmly:

“I am fortunate to be born in this era and have also become wealthy. I should set an example by using resources and policies to help more people and regions achieve common prosperity. I am just fulfilling my due responsibility.”

Meng Chuan was absolutely not being pretentious, nor was he doing it for fame.

The main reason is that Meng Chuan has too much money.

There's simply not enough money to spend it all.

Money loses all its purpose and meaning if it's not spent.

Therefore, Meng Chuan is willing to give back to society.

Of course, if we had to add a personal motive to Meng Chuan's actions, it would be for the sake of the Green Gang.

If Meng Chuan can change the high-level perception of the Green Gang by giving back to society.

This would allow the Green Gang to return with a positive image and a legitimate cause.

This is also a wonderful story.

The Fifth Master couldn't do this before because the Green Gang's territory was too big.

Although the Green Gang had its own businesses, it had too many people to support.

We don't have that much spare money to give back to society.

But Meng Chuan has it. Meng Chuan doesn't have much of anything, except money.

As the young master of the Green Gang, his identity was probably already known to the higher-ups.

There are no secrets that stay hidden forever.

Moreover, our country's intelligence agencies are not just for show.

It's impossible for Fifth Master's years in Shanghai not to attract attention.

Fifth Master was simply a law-abiding and honest businessman.

When it came to Meng Chuan, he was constantly trying to save the market.

Meng Chuan's actions did not have a negative impact on society.

The authorities just turn a blind eye!

Therefore, building schools will be Meng Chuan's first step in reversing the negative image of the Green Gang.

Meng Chuan will continue to perform numerous charitable acts in the future, hoping to expedite the fulfillment of Fifth Master's last wish.

“Meng Chuan, on behalf of all students, I thank you for your kindness. Rest assured, if you trust me with the approval process, leave it entirely to me. Just go ahead and build, and I guarantee I can handle all the paperwork for you.”

Old Shi patted his chest confidently.

When Meng Chuan scored full marks in the college entrance examination, he knew that Meng Chuan was definitely not someone to be underestimated.

He never expected that Meng Chuan would grow up so quickly and have such a high level of ideological awareness.

Even if it costs him his life, he will personally help Meng Chuan get this done.

After all, he's been in the education bureau for so many years, he still has some connections.

Once the school is established, his political future will be bright.

Of course, most importantly, it can benefit the local community, which is a meritorious deed.

"Alright, it's settled then. As you all know, the Liu Group is also one of my businesses, so I'll move the construction team in first."

Meng Chuan also has a decisive and efficient personality.

"No problem, we'll handle this as a special case. You start construction first, and we'll take care of everything else."

Wu Xian and his group all patted their chests and guaranteed it.

Meng Chuan then left the county government building with Ying Die, completely satisfied.

However, what Meng Chuan didn't expect was...

When Meng Chuan returned to the Liu family villa, Liu Dong had already returned.

And she also brought back someone Meng Chuan never expected—Shen Yue.
