Chapter 334 Infiltration(1/2)
Now that the autumn tax has just been collected, Erbi from the Bianjing Law Firm thought they could relax, but little did they know that as soon as they came back, they were working overtime every day, day and night, and they might as well go on a business trip to surrounding counties.
The reason for all this is the establishment of the charity foundation.
Because it involves too many business transactions, such as the loan contract between the charity foundation and the Ma family, and the cooperation between the football league and the genuine bookstore. Football is booming, and football newspapers are definitely a money-making tool. They are also football peripherals.
There are also investments from charitable foundations and cooperation with other businessmen.
etc!
Zhang Fei's requirements for the contract are very high. If the contract doesn't have more than a dozen pieces of paper, don't show it to him.
Fortunately, Zhang Fei has designed contracts in many aspects before, and has carefully studied these contracts, because now the main business of Bianjing Law Firm is not litigation, but legal services, and contracts are the top priority.
This is also an opportunity for them to exercise. Many of the project collaborations are very novel. It depends on whether they can apply what Zhang Fei taught them flexibly.
Therefore, Zhang Fei also stipulated that those who pass the test will be promoted.
It just so happens that a year has passed and it is time to elect a leadership team. After all, Zhang Fei has become more and more involved.
"Sanlang, you are here just in time. The contract between the Charity Foundation and the Ma family has been drafted. You can take a look first."
As soon as Zhang Fei entered the store, Fan Li handed Zhang Fei a copy of the contract.
Zhang Fei tilted his head, glanced at Fan Zheng, and said to Fan Li: "Show it to Da Lang, I have other things to be busy with."
"ah?"
Fan Li looked at Zhang Fei in surprise.
You are the expert when it comes to contracts, why do you want Fan Zheng to look at it?
What can he see?
Zhang Fei said angrily: "Don't you think it's unfair for me to review this contract? After all, this firm is mine too! Da Lang is our big client."
"Oh, yes, yes!"
Fan Li hurriedly handed the contract herb to Fan Zheng.
Fan Zheng took it awkwardly, but he understood Zhang Fei's intention, which was to let him manage the charity foundation.
Zhang Fei yawned, "You guys are busy, I'm going to take a rest first."
With a flick of his hands, he slipped away!
But when I came to the private room in the back hall, I found Xu Zhiqian sitting there with a sad face.
"Zhiqian?"
Zhang Fei hurried over and asked, "Why are you sitting here in a daze? What happened?"
Xu Zhiqian glanced at Zhang Fei in shame, and said with a depressed look: "I just said that donating to the college is not that easy, but you still don't believe it."
Zhang Fei frowned, sat down and said, "What's the problem?"
Xu Zhiqian said: "The Imperial College has made it clear that we can only donate money and cannot interfere in any other matters. They also gave me a lecture."
Currently, Zhang Fei asked Xu Zhiqian to do the donation work, mainly donating to the residents and the college.
After all, Xu Zhiqian came from a family of officials, so she was more familiar with the Imperial College.
In the end, things went wrong, and Xu Zhiqian felt quite embarrassed, but she was also aggrieved because she had persuaded Zhang Fei before that this matter was not easy to handle.
Zhang Fei said in surprise: "We took the initiative to donate money to them, and they are still so arrogant. That means they don't care about this donation."
Xu Zhiqian shook her head and said: "That's not true. Although the imperial court allocates funds to the Imperial College every year, the expenses of the Imperial College are also very high, so much so that they rent some vacant houses and even use some grain to lend money.
, to supplement the funds. During my negotiation with them, I felt that the Imperial College should have discussed it privately with Xiangguosi, and we were just responsible for donating the money to the Imperial College."
After hearing this, Zhang Fei couldn't help but murmur to himself: "This Xiangguo Temple is really full of talents!"
"What did you say?"
"nothing."
Zhang Fei shook his head and frowned again in thought.
The main purpose of Xiangguo Temple's support of the Song Dynasty Charity Foundation is of course to worry that if it is too weak to stand out in the forest, the wind will destroy it, and then support a tax avoidance organization, so that Xiangguo Temple will not be so conspicuous.
At the same time, Xiangguo Temple can also win support from more people by interfering with charitable foundations.
So, even if the money is donated, it must be used.
Investing in football leagues or renting cars and horses is not what Xiangguosi is most concerned about.
Xiangguo Temple has worked on such a scale, and in this precarious situation, they care more about stability rather than petty profits.
Therefore, Xiangguo Temple took aim at the Imperial College and showed kindness to the future Jinshi, so that they could speak for themselves in the court after they became officials in the court.
It can be seen that there are many talents in Xiangguo Temple. Although they are generous, they are also very careful in planning and integrating politics and business.
However, what Xiangguosi never expected was that Zhang Fei also had other plans. He hoped to use the foundation to penetrate into education, so he proposed to participate in the compilation of teaching materials.
You must know that the compilation and printing of today's textbooks are all in the hands of the Imperial College.
If it is impossible to penetrate into the Imperial College, then even if Zhang Fei donates to other colleges, nothing will be changed.
This is crucial for the future direction of education.
Although Zhang Fei is a liberal arts student, when he came here, he must develop a path in science. Otherwise, even if he can invent airplanes and cannons, history will eventually return to its starting point.
Education is the driving force behind everything.
Without this driving force, everything is a mirage and will soon collapse.
Let’s just say that the Shenji Camp of the Ming Dynasty was relatively powerful in the entire world when it was first established, but so what, without the support of education and culture, it would be nothing, and its development would be very limited.
Xu Zhiqian said: "I think it's better to forget it. I've told you a long time ago that many ministers in this court attach great importance to teaching materials. Even the ministers and governors cannot make the decision alone. I thought that even if Xiangguo Temple has not discussed it with them,
, it is impossible for the Imperial College to agree."
Zhang Fei's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked, "Have you told them how we plan to compile the teaching materials?"
Xu Zhiqian said: "I just expressed my intention in this regard, and they taught me a lesson. How can I have the opportunity to say that?"
"very good!"
Zhang Fei smiled and nodded.
"very good?"
Xu Zhiqian said in surprise.
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "You are right. If we want to participate, it is nothing more than wishful thinking. Even if the officials of the Imperial College agree, those scholar-bureaucrats will not agree."
Xu Zhiqian nodded and said: "That's exactly it."
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "I know what to do."
Xu Zhiqian asked: "How to do it?"
Zhang Fei said: "Just expose this matter."
"ah?"
Xu Zhiqian said: "Then they won't agree even more, and aren't you causing trouble for yourself?"
Zhang Fei raised his lips: "So there is no need to donate this money!"
Xu Zhiqian said: "But you haven't gained anything from this. On the contrary, it will make people more suspicious of our Song Dynasty Charity Foundation, which will only result in more losses than gains."
Zhang Fei chuckled and said: "It's not our foundation that they suspect, but the Xiangguo Temple behind us."
Xu Zhiqian opened her beautiful eyes and suddenly realized that her husband was a bit scary.
Zhang Fei seemed to understand what she was thinking and said: "Zhiqian, you have to remember that spending money is actually more difficult than making money, because making money is just a process of accumulating energy, and spending money is a means to achieve the goal."
Xu Zhiqian obviously has not yet fully understood the highest meaning of the charity foundation!
Making money is never the purpose of a charity foundation. If it was just to make money, why would Zhang Fei set up this charity foundation? He could also start a football league, but the development might be slower.
The role of a charitable foundation is actually to cover some real purposes.
certainly.
Not for tax avoidance.
In Zhang Fei's view, tax avoidance is just a gimmick.
If Zhang Fei cannot achieve his goals through donations, then what is the point of establishing a charitable foundation for Zhang Fei?
In terms of making money, he can make some compromises, but in terms of donations, it is impossible for Zhang Fei to make any compromises.
On the same day, Zhang Fei summoned Feng Nanxi and asked him to tell Li Bao that the charity foundation planned to donate the Imperial Academy in exchange for the right to participate in the compilation of teaching materials.
Why he did this was mainly informed to Zhao Xu through Li Bao.
You can’t hide it from anyone, but you can’t hide it from the emperor!
If Zhao Xu realizes that Zhang Fei is hiding something from him, Zhang Fei will be doomed.
Noon the next day.
Xu Zun returned home in a hurry and saw Xu Zhiqian sitting at the table writing something.
