With this calculation, the two hundred thousand he had was far from enough, and he needed at least double it.
He decided to call the brothers and sisters of the Sun and Yuan families first, tell them about his ideas, and seek their support.
After returning home, he first called his eldest and second brothers. The two families lived close to each other, so calling them together would save some trouble and make it easier for the brothers to discuss things.
After Sun Aimin told his two brothers about the fundraising plan he had discussed with Yuan Jie last night, he asked for their opinions.
Sun Aiguo asked, "You're still short of 200,000? I'll talk to your sister-in-law and see if we can come up with 50,000. You can take more from us and borrow less from others!"
Sun Aijun echoed from the side: "If big brother takes 50,000, then we both get the same. Anyway, the money at home is of no use now..."
What the two brothers were thinking about was that they could make up half of their brother's funding gap at once, so that their brother would owe less debt to others and have less pressure.
Although both families live in the countryside, they have a good reputation for hosting banquets in the local area. They always have orders and are busy all year round.
Compared to most rural residents, both families were considered quite wealthy. However, raising children was expensive, and the Sun family valued education and wanted their children to go to university, so they lived frugally and avoided extravagance.
At that time, 50,000 yuan was a huge sum of money, not to mention for rural people, but also for many city dwellers.
But it wasn't particularly difficult for Sun Aiguo and Sun Aijun's family to come up with 50,000 yuan. They weren't in a hurry to use the money, so they didn't have to chase their brother for repayment like others did.
Sun Aimin naturally knew what his brothers meant. After receiving his brother's letter, he had an idea in his mind.
On the phone, he said, "Brother, brother, don't worry about this right now. Let me think about it carefully. I think it would be great if my brothers and sisters could help me fill this gap.
However, my husband and I discussed it yesterday and wanted to see which of the two families is willing to participate. If everyone's ability allows, we will try to share the money equally.
If we lose money in the future, we'll consider it our debt and repay you with interest as soon as possible. If we make a profit, with everyone's consent, it can be considered as an investment, and we'll receive dividends based on our initial investment.
As for those who work at the school, like you two, in addition to dividends, you also receive a monthly salary."
Sun Aiguo understood everything this time and replied, "Aimin, if it were anyone else, we'd do as you say. It's easy for me to say. If the school makes money, that's great. If it loses money, you don't have to bear any burden..."
Sun Aimin guessed what his eldest brother was about to say next and quickly interrupted, "Brother, don't worry. I'm confident I can run the school well. Besides, with you and my second brother, two great teachers, here, how can we worry about not being able to retain students?"
Then he added, "But teaching in school is different from what we usually do with apprentices. When teaching apprentices, you can do whatever you want, but when teaching in school, you still have to be more systematic and professional.
I thought that if you have nothing to do at home these few days, you can come over early and I will enroll you in a training class to learn how to teach large classes.
We should also organize the teaching content in advance. The three of us will work together to create a unique set of teaching materials suitable for our school. For some very basic things, I've been looking around to see if there are any good existing teaching materials.
On the phone, the three brothers discussed the general situation. Sun Aiguo and Sun Aijun, thinking about their upcoming long journey, tossed and turned in bed at night. Excited...
Seeing Sun Aiguo baking pancakes on the kang late at night, Mrs. Sun teased him, "Look at how accomplished you are. It's not like you've never been to the city before, so why are you so excited?"
Sun Aiguo was just worried about not being able to sleep and being bored, but he didn't expect his wife to be kept awake by him. He simply pulled his wife aside to chat: "Why not?
In the past, going to the city was like a revolving lantern, but this time it’s different. We’re going to settle down in the city. Aren’t you excited? "
Mrs. Sun curled her lips: "Why should I be excited? It's not me who wants to go!"
She spoke toughly, but Sun Aiguo could hear a sour taste in her words.
He smiled and said, "When I make money and buy a house in the city, I'll see if you want to come!"
To be honest, when Mrs. Sun heard that Sun Aiguo and the second son were going to join the third son, she couldn't sit still at home.
In this era, if a rural person has the ability to gain a foothold in the city, the whole village will look up to him.
Now, their three children don't need them to take care of them much. The eldest earns money to marry, and the second and third children are in school. Basically, the couple only needs to provide money and don't have to worry about anything else.
As for Sun Aijun's home, Sun Yao, who came home from school, was even more excited than her father after listening to her parents' conversation.
"Dad, why don't you help me transfer schools? I also want to go to the city with you. If you, my eldest uncle, or my third uncle encounter any problems, I can help you find a solution." Sun Yao joked.
Mrs. Sun knew her little girl was full of ideas and acted on her own whims, but she didn't intend to control her too much. As long as she studied hard, there was no need to discipline her. She could do whatever she wanted.
You see, even though this child has never been strictly disciplined since childhood, hasn't he still grown up to be what the adults in the village call "the other people's child"?
She smiled and tapped Sun Yao's head. "You're so young, and you still want to give advice to adults? Look at what you can do. Forget about transferring schools. If you really want to go to the city, work hard and get the top score in the county high school entrance exam. That way, you can directly get admitted to the No. 1 Middle School in the city."
As for whether Sun Yao could win the county's top spot, Sun Ersao didn't know. But she knew her daughter's grades were the best in the township middle school, and her recent baseline test results were also among the best in the county.
