Wan Qingliu and Hua Wanchi had previously given up the plan to open a kindergarten, feeling that the conditions were not met yet.
Instead, it was Wu Muxiang who came up with this idea.
She had to go out, and she might have to go out more often in the future, so she would inevitably not be able to take care of the children in the house.
When she is not around, the hired nannies will not be as attentive. She can ask the team leader and Wan Qingliu to look after her, but they are both very busy and may not have much free time.
She thought to herself, could she find a special place, like Chi Bao's tutoring class, to leave her children there and hire a few people to look after them, so she wouldn't have to worry about the children being left unattended at home.
Children can play, learn and have something to do in this place, so they don’t need much care.
As for food, we can open a canteen and hire a few older girls to cook. They can make money and they dare not neglect it.
This place is like a school. Don't factories in the city have something like this? They put the workers' children in a nursery.
Find a few people who have attended elementary or junior high school to teach the children to recognize some words, which can be regarded as laying the foundation for their future elementary school education.
The more Wu Muxiang thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.
But for now, regardless of whether the team leader agrees or not, the village cannot pay, after all, building roads also costs money.
So Wu Muxiang came to Wan Qingliu to ask for investment.
She felt a little uneasy, because wherever money was needed, she would always have to borrow money from the rich Wan Qingliu.
Wan Qingliu was cheerful and didn't care about it, but Wu Muxiang felt a little embarrassed.
After hesitating for a moment, Wu Muxiang smiled a little awkwardly:
"Auntie, I have an idea. Would you like to join me?"
After hearing Wu Muxiang's plan, Wan Qingliu pondered for a moment: "Do you want to open this nursery just to pay for childcare, or do you want to make money?"
Wu Muxiang simply wanted to find a place to raise her children. In fact, she had thought about making money at the same time, but she was not sure whether the villagers were willing to spend money to send their children there.
If it were in the city, there would probably still be people willing to spend money.
But this is the countryside, and who doesn't let their children run around freely?
Why should I suddenly have to spend money to find a place to look after my children?
Wu Muxiang sighed with some worry and said, "It's good to make money, but I mainly want to have a place to look after my kids when I go out."
Her eldest child has started elementary school and can help with some housework, but he is still a child after all.
There's no one watching. If something unexpected happens, or someone gets burned or injured, who will take care of it if she's not around?
Even if we can find someone to help, who can guarantee that they will come immediately at that moment?
If it is something serious, it will be a big problem if we are late.
Those nannies could easily make excuses by saying they went to the toilet or went somewhere else for something, and it would be difficult for them to quarrel with their fellow villagers.
But it would be much better if there was a place like a nursery where the children could have teachers looking after them.
Wan Qingliu asked again: "What's the difference between a teacher in a nursery and your nanny?"
Wu Muxiang thought for a moment and said, "My nanny mainly helps take care of the children, doing laundry, cooking, sweeping the floor, changing diapers and feeding. If I'm not here, I'm afraid it won't work if I ask them to look after the children.
"If I were to run a daycare center, I would only need to hire people to look after the children. If they were irresponsible, I could just replace them."
Upon hearing this, Wan Qingliu continued to ask:
"If you wanted to make money from this, how would you do it?"
This really made Wu Muxiang think carefully. If he wanted to make money, he would have to charge money, but how to get the villagers to pay willingly became another problem.
Should we teach children to read? For the villagers, all children will go to primary school, so it doesn’t matter whether they learn to read a few years earlier or later.
If meals are provided, people may be willing to send their children here. As for ingredients, they can buy them from the mall or ask villagers to send some to pay for tuition.
Wu Muxiang pondered and said slowly, "As for the cost, we can find a place in the village, buy some tables and chairs, and provide three meals a day. We can also hire a few teachers and pay them 10 yuan a month.
"If you're a factory employee, you can take care of one child for free, but for other children, you have to pay a fee, which is two yuan a month."
She paid the factory workers a monthly salary of 30 yuan, and gave scraps of cloth to the villagers at a minimum price, and also distributed several sets of clothes every season.
In the village, everyone just eats and wears clothes and basically doesn't spend any money.
If there is someone in the family who is free and has received education, he or she can come to the nursery to be a teacher. Ten dollars a month is enough to cover the childcare fees for the children at home.
After that, Wu Muxiang continued, "For the older children, we can also teach them to make some hairbands. The factory will help them sell them, and we will take a portion of the sales revenue as a commission."
Wu Muxiang described the prototype of a nursery that was not very formal but very practical, and Wan Qingliu thought it was quite feasible.
She just invested some money. If she lost, she would consider it as a contribution to the village. If she made a profit, it would be a huge profit.
So Wan Qingliu nodded and said, "I can sponsor the blackboard chalk and tables and chairs, and the rest is up to you."
Even though these are insignificant, if you really want to purchase them, you will have to spend a lot of money, which is enough.
Wu Muxiang nodded quickly and said, "Okay."
Wu Muxiang turned around and went to find the team leader. As long as it was beneficial to the village, the team leader would generally not refuse.
The team leader said: "The village will still provide the space. In addition, the vegetables and eggs will be provided by the village. These can be collected by the villagers. However, the pork supplied by the pigs raised in the village will still be charged separately."
There is still a lot of space in the village, especially with two large clans. Just take the Fang family as an example. There are many elderly people who have no descendants, and after they die, their houses return to the clan.
The team leader's surname is Fang, and the house has been returned to the clan and can be reclaimed by the village at any time.
Since the packaged production was implemented in households, those with quick minds immediately seized the opportunity, contracted the land and started to work hard.
Some people in the village raise chickens, some raise ducks, some farm, and some grow fruit. Wu Muxiang feels that they can all sign stable supply contracts.
So, such a nursery was set up in the village.
As a result, the nursery and tutoring class were merged.
All the music and sports equipment were moved to the nursery, and several ping-pong tables and swings were built in the open space in front of the nursery.
The former counseling room has been transformed into a library, filled with shelves and lots of books.
As for where the book came from?
Of course, those were the things Hua Wanchi stockpiled in her previous life, and some were also bought on Taoduoduo.
A book costs dozens of yuan, so even if you buy thousands of books, it will only cost tens of thousands of yuan. It sounds like a lot, but compared to the balance of several hundred million yuan, it is just a drop in the bucket.
Everything was on track before summer vacation.
