After working at Ningzhou Children's Palace for eight years, Zhang Dongsheng has dealt with many training teachers. At first, this seemed useless.
But after the training institution was established and he became the person in charge, it became very useful.
The Children's Palace is famous enough, but the income of the teachers there is not high. For example, Zhang Dongsheng, a very high-level Mathematical Olympiad teacher, has an income so high that he is looked down upon by his relatives and friends, and even his wife despises him.
As an old man who has worked in the Children's Palace for eight years, Zhang Dongsheng knows that the Children's Palace has many training teachers with extremely high standards but low wages.
In the past, Zhang Dongsheng sympathized with them, and he himself was depressed and frustrated, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Now, it's different.
With the acquiescence of Zhou's mother and Li Mu, Zhang Dongsheng classified the teachers in the Children's Palace, selected those with high standards, and began to visit them one by one in private. He led them to visit the newly renovated and well-equipped training base, promising to be better than what they are now.
A salary several times higher.
The results are very good, 60% of the teachers have accepted the invitation, and many have agreed to work part-time.
For training institutions, the most important thing is good training teachers.
As long as the teachers teach well and rely solely on word of mouth, the source of students will continue to flow.
What's more, the teachers recruited from the Children's Palace are all excellent teachers. If they change jobs, with a little publicity, many students will follow.
…
This is also true. After more than half a month of preparation, the training class was officially opened. In just one week, nearly 200 people signed up, and the tuition fee was very low.
The training teachers recruited here are all very good and highly recognized by students and parents. After changing jobs, many students also came here to sign up.
For a time, this newly opened training institution became somewhat famous in Ningzhou.
As the person in charge, Zhang Dongsheng has also become famous. He is still the same person, but in the eyes of his relatives and friends, he has changed from a small training teacher in the Children's Palace to a successful person with a successful career.
People have to sigh, this is success in the worldly sense, so simple yet not simple.
After experiencing this, Zhang Dongsheng became more and more confident and had a bit of the high-spiritedness of his youth.
The changes in his career and mental state are naturally reflected in his family. Xu Jing's attitude towards him has improved a lot recently, and Xu's father and mother no longer nag them about divorce.
Even some relatives and friends began to praise him for his successful career.
All these changes made Zhang Dongsheng extremely emotional for a while.
He did not feel arrogant. On the contrary, he became more humble and spent more time and energy on his work.
He wants to become stronger, live out his life, realize his ambitions, and impress everyone.
…
After many days, Li Mu saw Yan Liang again. He had changed a lot. He was darker and thinner, but he was more energetic.
People have also become much more stable.
Knowing how hard it is to earn money, I am afraid that I will no longer have the naive idea of borrowing 300,000 from others directly.
When he saw Li Mu, he smiled and said hello: "Chaoyang, you're here."
"Brother Chaoyang, you are here."
"Well, Pu Pu, Yan Liang, long time no see."
As he spoke, Li Mu patted Yan Liang's shoulder.
"Your body is much stronger now than before. How was your work on the construction site?"
Yan Liang sighed: "It's not bad, I can still hold on for a while."
To be honest, Li Mu was a little surprised that Yan Liang persisted on the construction site for such a long time. Even though he is not short, he is only fifteen or sixteen years old, still a minor.
Moving bricks on a construction site is a strenuous job, and the working hours last for twelve hours a day. Even adults are not willing to do it much.
Yan Liang persisted for more than a month and never gave up. Li Mu also admired his perseverance.
“Do you think it’s harder to go to school or to move bricks now?”
Yan Liang smiled bitterly: "I used to think that going to school was hard and boring. After working on the construction site for more than a month, I realized what real hardship is."
Li Mu said: "Then don't do it and go back to school. And Pu Pu, the summer vacation is almost over, don't delay going to school. In your current situation, going to school is the best choice."
Yan Liang hesitated for a moment and said, "No, Chaoyang. I promised to earn money to treat Xinxin's illness. Now that I'm back, what should I do about Xinxin's illness?"
Pu Pu's eye circles were also red at this time.
"I'm sorry, Brother Yan Liang, it's all my fault. It wasn't me who always wanted to treat Xinxin, and you wouldn't go to the construction site to work. You're still going to school now."
Yan Liang said very loyally: "I don't blame you Pu Pu, I did it voluntarily, and your brother is also my brother."
Li Mu asked back: "Yan Liang, how much money can you save in a year now?"
Yan Liang was stunned for a moment. He worked very hard moving bricks and only earned 1,500 yuan a month. After excluding rent, water, electricity and living expenses, there was not much left. It would be good if he could save 10,000 yuan a year.
I didn't know how to answer for a while.
Li Mu continued: "Xinxin's illness requires 300,000 yuan. Have you calculated how many years it will take you to earn enough? How long will his illness last? Is it too late for you to save enough money?"
Yan Liang opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer.
He can only save 10,000 yuan a year now. If he wants to save 300,000 yuan, it will theoretically take thirty years.
Not to mention thirty years, Xinxin couldn't survive even three years. Earning money to treat Xinxin's illness was naturally nothing but empty words.
Li Mu's words directly exposed the bloody reality. It was doomed to be in vain for the two of them to make money to treat Xinxin.
After thinking about this, Pu Pu's eye circles immediately turned red, and Yan Hao seemed to be discouraged, sitting there bald.
Looking at their looks, Li Mu decided not to hide anything anymore and explained his purpose.
"Okay, I'm not here to attack you. You've worked so hard to treat Xinxin, and I can't just let you go."
Yan Liang raised his head and wondered: "You..."
Li Mu smiled and said: "Don't expect me to follow your example and work to earn money, but I don't have your body."
“Remember when I mentioned using charities to raise money?”
The two nodded, and Pu Pu said with a frustrated face: "Yan Liang and I went to many charities, but they didn't care at all, and some only said a few words of sympathy."
“Can charities really raise money?”
Li Mu said: "Of course you can, but you are all children and underage, so it will be difficult to do it."
"This matter requires adults to handle it well."
Pupu's eyes lit up and he said with some anticipation: "Brother Chaoyang, are you?"
Li Mu nodded: "I asked a teacher with a good relationship about this matter and went to a charity organization for consultation. I have high hopes."
"Today, I will take you over to meet him and register your information. Next, it shouldn't be difficult for him to help us with this matter."
Li Mu's words surprised the two of them.
Pupu's face turned red and he said excitedly: "Thank you, Brother Chaoyang."
"Chaoyang, I'm really troubling you." Yan Liang was also very happy.
Li Mu smiled: "We are good friends, as we should."
"Let's go, I'll take you to meet him."
…
At a small park on the corner of the street, Zhang Dongsheng had already arrived.
"Teacher Zhang, these are Pupu and Yan Liang. The one who needs to raise money for treatment is Pupu's younger brother Xinxin."
"Hello, Teacher Zhang." Pu Pu and Yan Liang called out with great respect.
Zhang Dongsheng nodded and looked at the two of them carefully, with a gentle smile on his face.
"Don't be nervous. I called you here today to fill in the application information and submit it to the charity. Next, you have to go to the charity with me to verify the specific situation."
"It's not a big problem to raise funds, don't worry."
Both of their faces became much more relaxed.
"Thank you, Teacher Zhang."
…
After communicating for a while and filling out the information, Zhang Dongsheng called Li Mu aside.
He said with emotion: "Chaoyang, these are the two friends you mentioned. A childhood playmate, you are willing to help them like this."
Li Mu smiled and said: "I only help as much as I can. I mainly rely on you, Teacher Zhang. Without you running up and down to help with operations and relying on charities to raise funds, it wouldn't be so easy."
Zhang Dongsheng shook his head and said with a smile: "I was just helping out with an errand. If you hadn't persuaded Chairman Jay to agree to pledge half of the fundraising amount and 150,000 yuan in the name of our training institution, things wouldn't have been so easy."
.”
Li Mu smiled and said: "We who run training institutions only earn money from children. Let's donate some money as charity, and we can build a good reputation."
Zhang Dongsheng nodded. He and Zhou Chunhong also considered this, otherwise they would not have agreed to donate money so readily.
