The Strongest Man in the Universe
Chapter 81
“Master. Carson, I have something to take care of off-campus so I sometimes ask for a leave of absence. I hope you can give me this privilege.” said David.
“Oh? You want the privilege of taking time off whenever you want? Can you tell me why?” Oliver smiled and asked.
He was also curious as to why David was brave enough to come to the rector and make this kind of request. Also, it seems David is sure Oliver will agree.
“Because I run a business off campus, I will be quite busy.”
“Business? Mr. Lidell, the university supports its students in starting their business. If you provide the university with relevant documents, the university can grant you that privilege after we have checked and approved it.”
“I can't do that. That's why I came to you" said David.
“Oh? Mr Lidell, do you think I would agree?”
“I'm sure you won't refuse, Mr. Carson.”
“What's the reason?” Oliver asked.
“Because I will donate 100 million to South River University, where 50 million will be prepared as a poor student award fund, which will specifically be given to poor students with good academic performance, he said, another 50 million will be used to upgrade university facilities. Mr Carson, what do you think?” david said with a smile.
When Oliver heard what David said, he was clearly shocked.
Donating 100 million to South River University?
This is something that South River University has not encountered in years since it was first founded. There has never been such an incident even among the leading universities in the country.
South River University is in the top ten of the top universities in the country. Moreover, South River University after many years of existence, it has also cultivated many celebrities from all walks of life.
They accept all sorts of donations but most of them consist of only a few million dollars. South River University has been established for many years, while the largest donation is from a student who graduated from South River University many years ago. Although he was a tycoon in the business world with billions of dollars, but he only donated 20 million to the university.
Now, a third-year student at the university actually said that he would donate 100 million to the university?
Who's gonna believe this?
To be honest, Oliver himself did not believe it either. In his opinion, David might be here to treat the chancellor like a fool.
“Mr Lidell, are you sure you want to donate 100 million to the university? And you're not just playing me?” Oliver sat up straight and asked.
“Of course! Otherwise, why would I come to you? Chatting? If I want to chat, wouldn't it be better if I went to chat with female students?” david said with a smile.
Oliver looked at David closely. David showed no restraint that other students usually showed when they saw him. Instead, he showed a calm demeanor, proving that he was completely unafraid of Oliver.
'Is he the son of a noble family? I might! Can third graders make 100 million by starting a business?'
Oliver would never believe it.
If David was going to donate 100 million, how much money would he have?
1 billion?
Or 10 billion?
If David is not here to consider him a fool, then David must be the son of one of the noble families. Plus, if the university could receive an additional 100 million in funding, they would be able to do a lot.
They might even be able to hire some prominent figures from the province. It would be good to upgrade the university. Oliver's dream is to propel South River University into one of the top three prestigious universities in the country.
“OK, Mr. Carson, we agreed, but I hope I can donate anonymously and I don't want people gawking like I'm a monkey wherever I walk on campus.”
“No problem!”
After that, David brought Oliver to the finance department of the university. Olver even called the head of South River University. After the donation was completed and 100 million received, the heads of South River University still felt like they were in a dream.
In the past, when someone donated a few million dollars, they would organize a conference with a lot of fanfare to publish it, but now donating 100 million dollars was settled so easily.
David's name is also on the list of university leaders. He was definitely someone with a lot of money, so they would try their best not to offend him.
“Mr Lidell, thank you for your contribution to the development of South River University. On behalf of all the teachers and students of the school, I say a big thank you.” Oliver said while clasping David's hand tightly.
The 100 million dollar donation is definitely the first in history. Now, David is still a student and he doesn't want to be famous and highlighted. When David graduated, he could publicize the matter, and then the reputation of the university would be improved according to the situation.
A third-year student, who started an outside business to make money, donated 100 million directly to the school. How strong does it feel to have it so he will do this?
What's more, he was able to make a lot of money by starting a business in his third year, which showed that his university education was excellent!
Oliver's heart flowered with joy. This would not only benefit the university but also increase its popularity and attract more students, killing two birds with one stone.
“Mr Carson, you're too good. South River University is also my alma mater and is a place that educates me to be a talented person. I believe that every future student also wants to do something to contribute to South River University.” David politely replied.
Then, the principal shook David's hand and thanked him. David responded politely one by one. Because David did not want to publish this, the school did not hold a donation ceremony.
After the donation, David left school and continued to take time off. Going to class is not very important to him now. Moreover, he had maximum mind power and he could learn everything very quickly. Therefore, he felt that he would not fail in his class, and would only go to class for more important matters. Even if he failed, he believed that the university would let him graduate.
It doesn't feel like it's the weekend anymore.
After half a month of recuperating, Aunt Sally's body was almost healed.
They plan to return to Shu City together this weekend to move some needed items.
David will also pick up Aunt Diana's family where he will see how to convince them to move to River City.
When he was there, he would also leave and ask for his parents' compensation back. David feels that he can only do things on his own without worrying after he calms down his family.
Lily returned to university half a month ago. Therefore, Aunt Sally's family of three, David, and two drivers, Wayne and Gordon, rushed to Shu City on Friday night.
David buys another G Wagon so Wayne and Gordon can each drive it. These former mercenaries would be fine if they did not sleep for three or two days, let alone driving for a few hours.
They left at 6pm, and it was already midnight when they arrived at Shu City. After David sends Aunt Sally's family home, she, Wayne, and Gordon find a hotel in the county.
Aunt Sally wants David to stay at their house. After all, he's been living here for two years. However, now David feels that he and Jacey are both adults, and both should have their own privacy. More comfortable living alone, and a little awkward sleeping with Jacey.
It was more inappropriate to also stay in Lily's room, so she could only stay at the hotel. With that, he insisted on going with Wayne and Gordon.
When he leaves, David asks for an agreement signed under the name Uncle Bobby.
“Dave, in fact, according to your ability, that compensation means nothing to you, but I know you are angry. Uncle Bobby was wrong to do some of those things, but in the end, he was still your uncle. She raised you for a few years and I hope you won't overdo it.” Aunt Sally said solemnly as she handed the deal to David.
“I understand, Aunt Sally. I just want to get back the rights that belong to me!” said David.
“Okay, I trust you. Let's go together later."
