After the exam, the students in Xiwang Town handed in their papers dejectedly.

Compared with the high-spirited state in the morning, it is completely different.

The principal of Xiwang Town arranged for a teacher to distribute money to the students in Dadong Town one by one, twenty yuan each, and expressed his gratitude cordially.

Jin Beibei took 20 yuan and said with joy: "Haha, my monthly pocket money is only 30 yuan. Today, for the first time, I earned 20 yuan based on my knowledge."

The students in Xiwang Town had no money to take. Now that I saw the students in Dadong Town holding money and looking happy, let alone the aggrieved feeling in my heart.

After the students from Dadong Town left, the principal of Xiwang Town looked at his students with all their heads and brains drooping. He didn't know whether his decision was wrong or right. He sighed and organized the teachers to mark the exams overnight.

After going back in the evening, Li Muyan asked Jiang Nan: "Brother Jiang Nan, how was your exam today?"

Jiang Nan smiled and said: "It's not bad, anyway, I can give you twenty for one visit."

Jiang Dongping and Xu Changying just came back. When they heard Jiang Nan say it was twenty for a trip, they asked in confusion: "How can I get paid for the exam?"

Jiang Nan smiled and said: "Dad, isn't this Xiwang Town instigated? Originally, we said we would only give it after we win. This is tantamount to admitting defeat in disguise."

Jiang Dongping said with a smile: "It would be too cowardly for Xiwang Town to admit defeat before even marking the exam."

Jiang Nan said: "There is no way, we can overwhelm each other in terms of momentum."

In fact, after looking around, the invigilator basically understood what was going on.

There’s no need to wait until the exam is graded. It’s better to go for a bachelor’s degree. It doesn’t cost much anyway. This way, you can leave a good impression on the students in Dadong Town. When you invite them again in the future, everyone can be more positive.

Jiang Dongping said: "Let's not talk about the exam. It is not an important exam anyway. By the way, the houses and land in the four central towns have been bought. Are you sure to start construction?"

Jiang Nan nodded and said: "Dad, I've thought about it. Let's start with Fengtang Town. Fengtang Town is the easiest to transform. If everything goes well, it can be completed in a month."

Jiang Dongping glanced at Jiang Nan and said, "I'm afraid that I can't manage well enough. Who will I send there then?"

Jiang Nan smiled and said: "Send those two boys there. The two boys won't be scared looking at the gas station at night. Aren't we going to recruit two more people and train them there?"

Jiang Dongping nodded and said, "Okay, I'll talk to Uncle Wang Jinshui tomorrow and ask him to find another construction team."

Jiang Nan said: "By the way, Dad, I will buy all the eleven small places left."

Jiang Dongping said: "Nannan, although you have already given us the money, do you really not think about it anymore?"

Jiang Nan smiled and said: "Dad, it's only 60,000 yuan in total. In five years, 60,000 yuan won't even be able to buy a place. Let's buy it. Let my mother work hard and spend some time next week to buy it all."

Yes, now someone has asked for help, I may still encounter trouble if I want to buy it in the future."

Jiang Dongping nodded and said: "Since you have considered it maturely, I have no objection, so let's do it."

Jiang Nan thought for a while and said, "I heard from my mother that the place in Chengguan Town was originally a water plant, right? I heard that the place was quite big and it cost 20,000 yuan."

Jiang Dongping nodded and said: "Although the place is quite deserted, there is a facade in the front and a yard in the back. The yard is not smaller than the one we built now. There is also a large pond left over from the previous water plant in the yard.

But the equipment has been dismantled."

There are only seven or eight kilometers left from Chengguan Town to the suburbs of the county. After the new century, it was included in the county and used as land for new city construction.

Jiang Nan thought for a while and said, "The Chengguan Town area can be slightly renovated, and our county's gas station company will be located there in the future."

Jiang Dong frowned and said, "I'm afraid Chengguan is a bit far from the county seat."

Jiangnan said: "It's not far away. I estimate that the city will expand in the future, and it should be possible to include the city gate. Our water plant is just on the side of the road outside the town, and that area must be construction land."

Jiang Dongping said with a smile: "Then you mean that the land around our water plant will be valuable in the future."

Jiang Nan nodded and said, "That's for sure."

Jiang Dongping nodded and asked: "When the time comes to design, you can talk to Uncle Jinshui."

Jiang Nan smiled and said: "There is no need to worry about Chengguan, because it is not far from the county seat, and the demand for refueling is not as strong as those three places. We just plan to use it as a future residence. This renovation must be carefully designed."

Jiang Dongping asked: "What about the eleven places?"

Jiang Nan said: "We won't do anything this year. We will copy Fengtang Town first, then use the existing two gas stations to train personnel, and open two more. We will start building the eleven next year. How many will be built? Let's see how many are built.

It will be up to us how much money each gas station can earn this year."

Jiang Dongping said: "Once the construction of the eleven starts, the company at Chengguan must be staffed. We cannot manage it with just a few people from our own family."

Jiang Nan said: "Well, that's for sure. Dad, now you can start looking for people. We can over-staff this gas station. Especially if we find good candidates, we must recruit them first. We don't have to worry about adding a few more months of salary."

Jiang Dongping nodded.

Xu Changying had already put the food on the table. Looking at the father and son who were engaged in the conversation, Xu Changying frowned and said:

"Nan Nan, let your dad take a rest. He has been working for a week and has been busy at the gas station for two days."

Jiang Nan then smiled coquettishly and said, "Mom, we've finished talking, let's eat."

When I went to school on Monday, the teachers seemed to have made an appointment. They didn't mention the joint examination between the two towns on Sunday, and no one bothered to ask.

Over in Xiwang Town, the students are doing better, but the parents are quitting.

Didn't we invite Dadong Town to compare the results? Why not show them and see if the results are really not as good as Dadong Town.

The principal of Dadong Town Junior High School was really forced to do nothing. Well, let's announce it. Even the mayor's wife came to ask questions in person. After all, her child was also in the second grade of junior high school and had also taken the joint entrance examination.

So the director of the Education Department posted the ranking lists of the two schools on the school bulletin board, and the whole school was in a panic, including the parents who came to inquire about the results.

Complete abuse, complete abuse!

On the bulletin board, the names of students from both schools are written in two colors. Dadong Town uses blue, and Xiwang Town uses black. It is easy to distinguish.

Dadong Town took the top five, eight of the top ten, fifteen of the top twenty, and twenty-three of the top thirty. It was a loud slap in the face.

The full score of this exam is 520 points, including 150 points for Chinese and Mathematics, 120 points for English, and 100 points for Physics.

Everyone looked at the first place and saw three big blue characters, Jin Beibei, with 136 points in Chinese, 148 points in mathematics, 116 points in English, and 99 points in physics, for a total score of 499.

Looking at the second place, it is still blue, Jiangnan, with 127 points in Chinese, 150 points in mathematics, 117 points in English, and 100 points in physics, with a total score of 494.

Everyone looked at the student who ranked seventh in the total score and first in Xiwang Town. Han Dongdong, with 123 points in Chinese, 136 points in mathematics, 112 points in English, and 91 points in physics, with a total score of 462. I'll go and follow up with Jin Bei.

Bey was a full 37 points behind.

Everyone used to think that Zhao Xiaoliang's performance was pretty good, but now when compared with Jin Beibei, it's really not good enough.

Some parents are anxious, really anxious.

Originally, they thought that as long as their children entered the top ten, they would be sure to get into the No. 1 Middle School of Kao County. But now it seems that they are disappointed.

Parents were angry and asked teachers why the gap between students in the same rural middle school was so huge.

Although the principal has said many times that one test score does not mean anything and that they will learn from their shame and be brave enough to keep trying again, parents clearly cannot see any confidence in the dejected expressions of the classroom teachers.

In the end, the principal had to agree to organize such a joint examination during the final exam so that students from the two schools could compete again.

Since he lost and wanted to organize the joint examination next time, he had to admit the debt this time. The principal sent the dean of students to send 800 yuan to Dadong Town Middle School that day.

During evening self-study, the head teacher called Jiang Nan out, first encouraged him, then gave him 200 yuan, and warned Jiang Nan to keep a low profile on this matter.

Jin Beibei's class teacher also did the same thing, but Jin Beibei received 500.

Although the teachers in Dadong Town felt that it was not good to use money to motivate students, especially in junior high schools, since it was given to them by Xiwang Town Junior High School, they could not withhold it, so they distributed it in full.

The three people who received the money did not tell the outside world, so the students in Dadong Town did not know the true ranking.
Chapter completed!
