Chapter 96: Buy a University!

Jia Lei's steel plant was bought in a timely manner, they bought the steel plant on December 10, and Gaidar Zongli, who presided over the privatization on the 14th, was dismissed from his post as acting president.

The auction of shares in privatized enterprises has been suspended for a while, and it is said that the government will re-value all large enterprises before selling them, although some ordinary enterprises are still being auctioned.

"Phew! Thank God, Cheli Yabin Iron and Steel Plant was lucky to catch the last train!" Jia Lei said after hearing the news, wiping a cold sweat from his head.

"Why, does it matter if Gaidar is ousted?" asked the little Jew.

"Of course he is important, it is in his hands that the privatization project of Ross was started, and more importantly, he is a good friend of Khodorkovsky, a man on our side. His resignation this time has a great impact on us!" Jia Lei said.

"Oh my God, what are we going to do in the future?" asked the little Jew.

"What else can we do? Big business can't be done for the time being, so we can only do small business like buying land and houses. Anyway, the current housing price in Moscow is only 200 US dollars per square meter, and we will not lose money if we buy some shops facing the street in Moscow in the future. Jia Lei said.

"That's a good idea, but when are you going to go back to Moscow?" asked the little Jew.

"I always have to finish the reception of the steel plant before I can leave, after all, it takes ten days and a half months for such a large factory to just receive property and make a register. Jia Lei said.

It's a pity that Jia Lei far underestimated the huge size of the Cheli Yabin Iron and Steel Plant, and when he saw thousands of documents and reports in the chairman's office, Jia Lei suddenly felt dizzy and his eyes were full of stars.

"Jia Lei, what's wrong with you, are you uncomfortable?" asked him worriedly.

"It's okay, I'm just learning to be scumbag, just take it slowly. Jia Lei leaned against the wall and said, he waited two minutes before relieving.

"What are these?...... Jia Lei asked with trembling fingers and incredulously pointing to the piles of documents on the desk.

"These are the steel plant's ledgers, asset appraisal reports, personnel information, machinery information...... "Novan began to introduce Jia Lei.

I don't want to hear it anymore, I can't understand these things, so you might as well hire a special accounting firm from Wall Street to handle it. Jia Lei said with a headache.

"How expensive is it to ask for a conference from Wall Street? Those M countrymen have to pay their salaries in dollars, right? Now the dollar is worth more in Russia!" the little Jew reminded Jia Lei.

The little Jew found out that the dollar was particularly valuable and difficult to get in the past few days, and he now only had to take five dollars out to eat and drink at the restaurant.

If he is willing to pay ten dollars, there will be a beautiful girl from country E who is willing to spend the night drinking with him.

"You're right! It's too expensive to hire someone to the United States, but there are also a lot of people in mathematics and finance at nearby universities. I've heard that almost all the faculty and staff in Moscow are now in arrears, and their monthly income is not even comparable to that of a cleaner, and I can go to the university and find some temporary workers to help me organize my papers. Jia Lei thought about it and said.

"But a university professor should be paid more than an ordinary worker, how can he not even be a cleaner?" asked the little Jew.

"Maybe in the eyes of the government of country E, these literati who can't work are the most useless!" said Novan helplessly.

This sentence is the most popular phrase in the mouths of all university professors now, they are laughing at themselves!

"Then let's go!" Jia Lei slipped away with the little Jew after speaking, he really didn't want to face the data and reports in that room.

"Huh, finally escaped!" Jia Lei turned back in fear and said, he was afraid that Novan would chase him out and arrest him back to read the report.

"But you have to read these reports sooner or later, you can't always hide like this, can you?" asked the little Jew.

"I know, but I really can't do it! There are so many financial statements, what should you think of me as a person who is not a professional?" Jia Lei said speechlessly.

"And what are you going to do now?" asked the little Jew.

"What else can I do? Of course, I have to go to the university and hire temporary workers to sort out the reports, otherwise can a few of us read the reports in that room? In this way, I only need to read the final summary report!" Jia Lei sighed and said.

Fortunately, there is a well-known university in Chelyabinsk, and when Jia Lei and the little Jews drove to the school, the school was not yet on winter vacation, and the campus was full of people.

"This classmate, how should I get to your school's office building?" Jia Lei stopped a student and asked.

"If you go all the way to the left, you can see which sign is hanging in front of the school's office building. The student replied.

"Thank you, thank you very much!" Jia Lei politely greeted him, and when he arrived, he immediately led someone over.

"Strange, there is an office building sign hanging at the door here, how can there be no one?" Jia Lei walked into the office building, looked at the empty offices and asked puzzledly.

"I don't know, so why don't we look for it?" the little Jew suggested.

"Okay, Pete, you take someone to the top two floors to look for it, Novan you take someone to search the third or fourth floor, and the little Jew and I take people to take a look on the first and second floors. Jia Lei said.

"Why should I search the top two floors, how many more stairs do I have to climb?" Pete muttered in a low voice, and then took the person away in Jia Lei's eyes.

Jia Lei took the little Jew and the bodyguard and began to knock on the doors of the office from office to office, but he still didn't find anyone.

"Boss, I just met a cleaner and asked for a clue?" Kerr said when he returned.

"What clues did you ask?" Jia Lei asked immediately.

"The janitor told me that the school leaders all had meetings in the conference room on the third floor, and that we had to go to the third floor if we were looking for someone. Kerr said.

By the way, you use the walkie-talkie to tell Pete not to let him climb any further, so that he won't have to come down and complain about us for a while. Jia Lei instructed Kerr.

"Okay! I'll let him know. Kerr nodded.

Jia Lei and the others soon came to the large conference room on the third floor, and before they reached the door of the conference room, they heard a roar from inside.

"We're a university here, it's a place for students to study, how can we let people who don't bother come in and do business? They put those dance halls and things like that near the school, and they can bring the students badly. Jia Lei looked through the ajar door of the conference room and saw a white-haired old man complaining loudly on the podium.

"Principal, we can't help it, the continuing education college affiliated to our school will be auctioned tomorrow, where can we get together 8 million rubles at a time?" said a professor with a helpless face.

"Even if we go bankrupt, we have to scrape together this money, otherwise we won't want to be quiet in the future!" the headmaster suggested loudly.

"But where did we get so much money? We are a bunch of poor teachers, who don't earn much, and the government often defaults on our wages. Now that prices are so expensive, the family has no money for food, and the previous savings have long been spent! Everyone really has no money in their hands. The dean of students said.

"Since we don't have enough money, let's let all the teachers and students of the school donate together!" said the principal through gritted teeth.

"It's not going to work, it's absolutely not going to work! Students can't earn their own money in the first place, and we're adding to the burden on their families by doing so. One teacher immediately retorted.

"The students in our school are mainly the children of the workers of the steel mills, where do they have the money? Even if everyone donates together, they can't make up 5 million rubles!" said a female professor of finance, who sighed and said that she could calculate this kind of statistical stuff in the blink of an eye.

"Then what are we going to do? Are we really going to watch one of the walls of the school and the affiliated colleges next to it be sold off by the government's gang of black-hearted ghosts?" said the headmaster bitterly.

"Hey! Whoever makes our school the most well-known is the physics department and the chemical engineering research department, if only the students of the political science department of our school were stronger, and they could speak up in the government! Otherwise, so many universities in the country do not sell, why do they have to sell our school...... "A professor of philosophy said indignantly.

"Why do you look down on our physics department? The students of our department can go out to repair a machine and make a living, but you philosophy students can't do any other work except sweeping the streets now!" said a professor in the physics department angrily.

"Huh...... Now that most of the steel mills in the city are on the verge of bankruptcy, it's too late for people to lay off workers, so why would they accept you physics students to repair machines!" the professor of the philosophy department immediately retorted.

"Okay, you two don't quarrel! In fact, according to the current situation, whether you are a worker or sweep the streets, you can earn about the same! Anyway, you earn more than our group of poor teachers. Professor Kim Ji Haley of the Department of Finance stood up and persuaded him.

"You all sit down for me and don't quarrel, when is it now, are you still arguing! Are you trying to make me angry?" said the gray-haired old headmaster, clutching his chest, and the vice principal next to him hurriedly helped him down.

"Can I come in?" Jia Lei finally couldn't help but knock on the door when he heard this.

"Who are you, what do you want to do?" asked the school's dean of instruction, looking at Jia Lei vigilantly.

"I originally came to the school to hire a few temporary workers, so I wanted to talk to you, but I couldn't see anyone anywhere else, so I could only find the big conference room. Jia Lei explained.

"Why did you want to hire temporary workers to come to our school? The streets are full of workers looking for work, where should you go if you want to hire someone?" asked the dean.

"What I need is mental temporary workers, their main job is to read financial statements and asset reports, and the ordinary people on the street can't read them at all, so I thought of hiring a few teachers and finance students from your school to help. Don't worry, I can pay a very high salary, and I can settle it in dollars!" Jia Lei hurriedly said.

"Give me dollars, that's a good thing! I'll go back and help you find someone after the meeting." Professor Ginge Haley of the Department of Finance immediately smiled and agreed.

It's not easy to find a dollar earner now! Of course he was happy!

"By the way, I just heard a few words about your meeting, and I have a question I would like to take the liberty of asking? It stands to reason that people in Moscow, even if they are crazy, will not auction off the university, right? Why is this happening in your school? Jia Lei asked curiously.

"Of course, Moscow will not auction off universities, what they want to privatize and auction is the continuing education institute built after our university, and in principle, the continuing education college does not belong to our university. But in fact, the College of Advanced Studies is built on the campus of our university, and it even shares a side wall with our school. In the past, the people who came to the institute were workers from all over the world who came to our university for further training, as well as teachers from other schools. There are complete sets of research equipment and teaching equipment in the academy, and those things are worth at least $100 million! But I didn't expect that the city government would want to sell it for a mere 8 million rubles!" said the headmaster, who was particularly distressed.

"Oh my God, how can it be sold so cheaply? As far as I know, scientific research equipment is very expensive!" Jia Lei asked in surprise.

"Huh...... Don't you know that the most valuable thing is knowledge and knowledge-related things nowadays, and even the salaries of our university professors are the lowest in the country!" said the director of education helplessly.

"How can this work? Although I am a scumbag, I have a lot of respect for teachers and the school, and I really can't tolerate this kind of thing!" Jia Lei said angrily.

"A foreigner knows that this is not right, but the government group of people who only recognize money actually want to sell the land of the affiliated school to the biggest local gang! What will those gangsters do if they take the house and land of the affiliated college? Do they want to open a nightclub or a car repair shop?" said the professor of the philosophy department, covering his face and bitterly.

"Whatever they want to do, they're going to be a threat to the safety of our students coming in and out there, and I'm worried that the students in the school will learn from them if they come into contact with them every day. The dean of students was also worried.

"If it's just a matter of money, I can help you figure out how to buy it if they want to sell the school, and I can't promise you that it's still going to be a school next to it, but I can guarantee that it won't become a nightclub. Jia Lei said.

"What are you talking about? Are you really willing to help us buy the academy, and why are you doing this?" asked Professor Ginghiley in surprise.

"I did this because I felt that teachers and knowledge were the most worthy of respect in the world!" Jia Lei said.

"Oh my God, you are the best student I have ever met in my life, may I ask which school you are in, I must go and thank your teacher? I also want to thank him for teaching you the principles of life!" said the old principal excitedly.

"Huh, you ask me where I go to school......" Jia Lei heard this question and began to take a step back, but the old principal had already come over and grabbed his hand.

"Your teacher must be the greatest teacher in the world, otherwise how could you respect the profession of teacher so much?
