Sure enough, the old principal continued: "Although many of the students in No. 22 Middle School are bad children in other people's mouths, they are all from poor families. Otherwise, whoever has the money will not let their children go to school in such a school, Mr. Si, you say yes! ”

This really asked Si Yan, if there is money, who will go to school here?

The old principal didn't wait for Si Yan to speak, but continued: "Don't underestimate the tuition fees of dozens of yuan, in addition to this, books, books, and pens are all bought with money, and this year, in fact, the cost is not small." Especially for those families who are not wealthy in the first place, it is a large expense. If the tuition fee is longer, it is likely that many students will choose to drop out and not continue their studies. ”

Hearing this, Si Yan finally understood why the twenty-second middle school was so decadent, it turned out that it was not that the school didn't want to tidy up, but that it couldn't be sorted out at all.

One is that there is no money, and the other is also for the sake of the children of the poor.

Si Yan nodded suddenly and didn't speak again.

And the old headmaster also seemed to say something sad, and did not speak again.

After a while, Si Yan spoke: "Old principal, I heard Yiyi say that as the price for her to get the school's funding to study abroad, after she graduates, she will have to return to the school to work for a period of time before she can regain her free body, right?" ”

"Well, that's what it says."

The old headmaster nodded, "However, the rules are dead, and people are alive." If Yiyi really doesn't want to come back, it doesn't matter. The school's current English teacher is enough, even if Yiyi comes back, she is a high-achieving student, and she only gets a basic salary. In this way, it is a pity for talents. ”

Such a statement made Si Yan a little surprised, because the news he heard from Xiao Yiyi seemed to have to come back, and there was no discussion at all.

Seeing that Si Yan didn't speak, the old principal said again: "Mr. Si, don't worry, no one will force Xiao Yiyi to come back to work." If she feels that she can't get by, then come back to teach for a semester, and then leave again, even if it is two clear. ”

Si Yan didn't nod or shake his head, but asked, "Then, if Yiyi comes back to open a foreign language school and gives priority to the students of No. 22 Middle School, then can it also offset the kindness he received from the school before?" ”

"This, naturally, is better."

The old principal nodded, but there was a sad look on his face, "It's just that there shouldn't be a few children in our school who can afford it." ”

Si Yan smiled slightly, and said confidently: "This, the old principal doesn't have to worry." I'll tell you the truth, the old principal, this time I came to you, in addition to renting a school, there is another thing, that is, about Yiyi to open a foreign language school. ”

"Is it really going to be opened?"

The old headmaster was a little surprised, even a little surprised.

Si Yan nodded, "I have asked people to inspect the educational environment in Ducheng, although the twenty-second middle school is relatively poor, but the surrounding environment is very suitable for classes. So, I have decided to buy the school next door to the middle school and build a foreign language school for Yiyi. We'll be neighbors then. ”

"Buy the school next door?"

The old principal was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and then exclaimed: "The staff technical school next door was bought by you?" ”

"Well, that's right, I just signed the contract yesterday. Years ago, students at the school would leave one after another to go to their new campus. ”

Seeing Si Yan say such words lightly, the old principal was completely speechless.

Although there are not many students in the staff technical school next door, because they have been in Ducheng for a long time and the area is not small, they have been talked about many times, but they have not been bought.

I didn't expect that after going around and around for so many years, I was actually bought by the young man in front of me, and looking like that, it seemed that I bought it very easily.

Compared with the old principal's indifference, Si Yan was too calm, "Actually, this time I came to the old principal, I have another idea I want to talk to the old principal, if the old principal agrees, it will naturally be the best, but if the old principal thinks it's not good, then it's okay." ”

"What thoughts?"

The old principal asked, but his heart was already shocked, and he even vaguely felt that what this young man wanted to talk about with him was very likely to be a historic turning point for No. 22 Middle School.

"The two schools have been merged into one, and the scale has been expanded and the facilities are sound, making it a real civilian senior school."

"Merge into one?"

The old principal was shocked again, "Young man, you, do you know that the two schools have merged into one, and once the school next door becomes a foreign language school opened by you, it will become a private school, and it is not easy to merge with our 22nd Middle School!" ”

Si Yan didn't seem to pay attention to this question at all, but said with a relaxed face: "This is not too difficult for me. I just wanted to ask the old principal, if the two schools merged, would you be willing to continue in the position of principal? ”

"I ......"

The old headmaster hesitated suddenly, he hadn't thought about this idea at all.

And Si Yan was not in a hurry, and continued: "The old principal should think about this matter. Well, if the old headmaster could give me a letter of approval before the school next door moves out completely. ”

Hearing this, the old principal didn't nod or shake his head, but asked a little nervously: "Young man, should I be the principal, is there any inevitable connection with the merger with the school?" ”

"This ......"

Si Yan paused, and said with a smile: "Although I support Yiyi to open a foreign language school, I don't want her to work too hard, and the affairs of the school will definitely be shared by others at that time." If you can find a good helper, then the merge can continue, but if you can't find a good helper, then the merge will be stranded until the right person can be found to help. ”

"Then may I ask, once the school is merged, what are your plans for the original students and teachers of the school, as well as the use of the school's resources?"

Si Yan was a little stunned by this question, but quickly said: "To be honest, I haven't opened a school either, and this is the first time I've come into contact with the school industry in my industry." ”

"But what I can guarantee is that the new school after the merger will only be better than the best high school in Ducheng now."

"As for the original teacher, as long as he is willing to accept the arrangement of further study, then after the training, he can naturally continue to stay. If they are not willing to accept further education, then it does not matter, the school will compensate them for 10 years at a time according to their current school salary rate. As for students, according to the current standard of recruiting students in No. 22 Middle School, only the current tuition fee is still charged. As for the cost of books and the like, the school sets up scholarships every year, and as long as the children study hard, there will always be a chance to get it. ”

The old principal looked at Si Yan with a calm face on his face in shock, and at this moment, the old principal suddenly had a suspicion.

Is such a detailed arrangement plan really just come up with by this young man? Didn't you really think about it in advance?

At this time, Si Yan was thinking in his heart that once such an arrangement was known by Xiao Yiyi's little woman, he didn't know what kind of reaction it would have.

The two of them had their own thoughts, but no one spoke again for a while.

At this time, Xiao Yiyi walked in with a bag of drinks, the coffee was left for Si Yan, and the other drinks were placed on the cabinet on the side.

This detail was noticed by Xiao Yiyi when she was in school.

When it's time for the exam, there are multiple bottles of drinks on the cabinet in the principal's office.

When the test results come out, all students who get good grades in the exam, or who have made great progress, will be rewarded with a bottle of drink.

Although a bottle of drink was not a valuable reward, it was a different kind of award for the students at that time.

It wasn't until Xiao Yiyi sat down for a long time that she didn't see any reaction from the old principal, and when she was about to ask, she heard Si Yan say: "Old principal, then let's talk about it here today!" Yiyi and I have other things to do at noon, so I won't continue to bother you here. ”

The old principal suddenly came back to his senses, and when he saw Xiao Yiyi coming back, he reacted instantly, nodded at Si Yan, and Si Yan pulled Xiao Yiyi, who looked puzzled, and left.

And after leaving the school, in the car, Xiao Yiyi asked puzzledly: "Si Yan, what did you say to the old principal?" Why did the old headmaster get so worried just now? ”

"Didn't say anything."

Si Yan didn't look at Xiao Yiyi either, but continued to stare at the computer.

"I didn't say anything, why did the old principal have that expression! It was as if he had lost his soul, and he didn't even notice when I went back. Xiao Yiyi's tone was a little worried, "The old principal is old, and he is still working hard for the school, and he really worked hard for him." ”

Hearing Xiao Yiyi's words, Si Yan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, looked up at her, and asked, "What, you don't want him to continue to be the principal anymore?" ”

"This ......"

Xiao Yiyi pursed her mouth, thought about it, and then said: "It can't be simply said that I want or don't want to." From the student's point of view, the old principal is really a rare good principal in the world, and with him, the twenty-second middle school can be stable. It's just that, purely from the perspective of the younger generations, the old principal is not young this year after all, and at such an old age, it is said that he should enjoy his old age in peace, but now he is still worried about the children, which is really distressing. ”

"Silly girl."

Si Yan snorted and continued to look at the computer.

Xiao Yiyi was immersed in distress and admiration for the old principal, but she didn't hear Si Yan's words.

At noon, the chef chose a famous Chinese restaurant in Ducheng, and there were only four of them in the huge private room.

This made Xiao Guocheng and Gu Guizhi very unable to let go, and even Xiao Yiyi was embarrassed, and secretly rolled her eyes at Si Yan several times.

"Xiao Yan, there are only four of us, sitting at such a big table, we have to shout when we talk, otherwise, let's go to the hall to eat!" Gu Guizhi couldn't help but open his mouth.

Xiao Guocheng on the side heard this, and hurriedly nodded, "Yes, yes, let's just eat at the small table outside." ”

Si Yan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at Xiao Yiyi, but saw Xiao Yiyi glaring at him again, which made Si Yan instantly realize that he seemed to be habitual thinking, and he forgot to take care of other people's feelings.

"Aunt, uncle, I was negligent today, but don't worry, this table is not just for the four of us. Someone will come later. ”

As he spoke, Si Yan took out his mobile phone and dialed Yi Chenhao's number directly, and after a while, the phone was picked up.

"Why haven't you two come here yet? We're all in place. ”

Hearing Si Yan say this, Yi Chenhao couldn't help but be stunned, and asked, "Where are the two of us going?" Isn't it a day off today? ”
