Chapter 2608
Charlie asked in a puzzled way: “Why does it make you feel boring to helppanies
make more profits? Isn’t your teaching now also helping schools cultivate more
talents? I think there is nothing between the two. They’re absolutely different.”
Pord smiled slightly and said seriously: “To be honest, I am not a person who loves
money very much.”
With that, Pord said with some emotion: “Actually, after the money reaches a certain
level, it doesn’t make sense to me. My living condition must have been fixed since I
earned half a million dors a year until When I made 10 million U.S. dors a year, my
standard of living and condition were the same as when I made half a million dors a
year.
“Although I am not a rich person, I have worked for so many years and have saved tens
of millions of dors. In addition, I have made some stock investments. I have some
shares of Apple and Te. If you discount it all, you might get two to three hundred
million dors. Although the money is notparable to Mr. Wade’s Emgrand Group, I
don’t know where to spend it.”
“The house I live in now is not expensive. All the investment is added up, and it is about
one million. I can afford an expensive house. I just find it too troublesome to live in, and it
is unnecessary.”
“The car I drive is a Te. This is the mostmon one. It is economical and
environmentally friendly. When all the investment is added up, it is less than 60,000 US
dors in RMB.”
“And my monthly expenses, only a few thousand dors are enough, and my current
sry alone can cover all these expenses. As for the remaining money, it can only be
stored in the bank ount. It haspletely lost its liquidity, no matter how much money I
earn, I will donate all of it to charity in the future, so for me, I feel that I might as well just
teach diligently here.”
Charlie asked in surprise, “Aren’t you going to leave a generous sum of money for your
children?”

Pord smiled and said, “I really don’t have any thoughts about this. My daughter is
about the same age as you, and her living condition is about the same as mine. She can
make money, but she won’t spend money at all, and she has no motivation to spend
money.”
Charlie couldn’t help feeling a bit difficult when he heard this. Pord is obviously not
interested in money and only wants to teach and educate people. In this case, what does
he do to impress him and make him willing to do it with him?
After thinking about it, Charlie didn’t think of a good way. However, a ck and white
sketch on the wall of Pord’s office attracted his attention.
The simple strokes of the sketch only drew the shape of a tree. It didn’t seem to be
peculiar. Even most people could hardly tell the species of this tree by its shape.
But Charlie still looked at the painting and said with interest:
“Professor Watt, did you draw this sketch by yourself?”
Pord asked curiously, “How do you know? I didn’t sign the money on it either.”
Charlie smiled and said, “Because I know this tree.”
“Oh?” Pord hurriedly asked him, “Since you know this tree, can you tell me something
about it?”
Charlie nodded and smiled: “Professor Watt, the tree you painted is actually a redwood
tree in California, USA.”
Pord was taken aback for a moment. At this time, Charlie continued: “In fact, this
simple stroke of yours should have been taken from the Stanford University emblem. If
I remember correctly, the pattern in the center of the Stanford University emblem is like
this. A red cedar tree.”
Pord asked in surprise: “Is Mr. Wade also a graduate from Stanford?”
