"Ka ka ka!"
In the conference room on the first floor of Guang Hua Building.
The first Yanhuang College Teacher Title Evaluation Conference actually started with the crisp sound of cucumbers being eaten. Everyone was sitting in their chairs, enjoying the fresh cucumbers that were just plucked from the seedlings. They were tender and juicy, making people salivate!
The conference room was also filled with the unique fragrance of cucumbers!
For many people, this was not only a feast for their taste buds, but also a feast for their ears! Because the sound of so many people eating cucumbers was too pleasing to listen to! That crisp sound seemed to be able to stir people's nerves, making them unable to stop even if they wanted to! So much so that some people's faces were not only filled with enjoyment, but also a trace of intoxication!
Li Zexuan expressed his understanding of this. In his previous life, there was a short video of "watching others eat cucumbers for more than a minute on the internet" that went viral on Weibo. Many people said that the sound was too crisp, and they were already deeply immersed in it, unable to extricate themselves.
Actually, this phenomenon was very normal, and it had a special term — ASMR! Its characteristic was: Visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, or other sensory stimuli, causing a unique and pleasurable sensation in the brain, scalp, back, or other areas of the body.
Scientific research showed that when people hear soft voices or objects make light sounds, the brain's amygdala would become very active, and the amygdala could stimulate a human's sense of pleasure (Ahem ~ you know).
"Ka ka!"
The teachers of the academy especially cherished the cucumbers in winter. However, no matter how much they cherished it, there was still a time when they finished it. Many of them even ate the cucumbers' buttocks. Li Zexuan's mouth twitched as he watched. He thought to himself, If this was seen by outsiders, wouldn't it be too embarrassing for the academy's image ~?
"Cough cough! Alright! Since everyone has finished eating, then this year's Teacher Title Evaluation Conference will officially begin! "
Seeing the eighty teachers in the room reluctantly throw the last bit of cucumbers' buttocks into the trash can, Li Zexuan coughed twice and solemnly announced.
The faces of the teachers of the academy turned solemn as they looked at Li Zexuan. Compared to the cucumber, they were more concerned about this!
"There are a total of 43 applicants for the position of lecturer, 25 applicants for the position of associate professor, and 7 applicants for the position of professor. Next, the acting Shan Zhangwen, Mr. Ji, and the head of the teaching office, Mr. Kong Gui, will announce the results of the evaluation!"
…
Due to the large number of participants and the complicated process, the Professional Title Evaluation Conference lasted until the sky turned dark. In the end, a total of six people were appointed as professors. They were Yan Silu, Wang Ji, Xiao Deyan, Xu Hongzhi, Mo Huai, and Ma Zhou. The six of them were happy to have a residence on Cloud Mountain. They finally had the opportunity to enjoy the "academicized" architectural decoration and become neighbors with Li Zexuan!
Of course, Mo Huai was an exception. He had rejected Li Zexuan's request to give him a residence. Firstly, Li Zexuan had previously given him Liu Shiren's mansion in Plum Village for free. Secondly, his daughter Mo Lingwei had been appointed as a special professor of the academy because of the astronomical telescope incident. She had already received a residence on Cloud Mountain. If he received another one, it would be somewhat inappropriate!
From now on, Ma Zhou no longer had to rent a house. At least he had a home in Chang 'an, and it was an exquisite mansion that was priceless. As for Wang Ji, he no longer had to live in the academy's teachers' dormitory. After class in the afternoon, he could also warm two pots of wine at home!
It was worth mentioning that Yan Shaoning was not appointed as a professor, but only as an associate professor. This was because the strict and old-fashioned people like Li Gang and Yan Silu believed that Yan Shaoning did not have "academic achievements" like Mo Lingwei. Giving him the position of associate professor was already giving Li Zexuan face! Being a professor was definitely out of the question!
As a result, the poor Yan Shaoning was subconsciously suppressed by Mo Lingwei.
There were a total of 20 associate professors in the academy. The rest were all promoted from teaching assistants to lecturers. Although this result was somewhat unsatisfactory for a small number of people, it was still a happy ending overall!
…
The next day.
In the morning, Han Lizheng and Old Hu came to Cloud Mountain early in the morning to look for Li Zexuan.
"Father-in-law, Uncle Hu, come and sit!"
As the academy had officially started work, Li Zexuan did not sleep in today. He had already woken up at this time. Seeing Han Lizheng and Old Hu coming together, he quickly greeted them.
The three of them sat down in order. Han Yuxi brought two cups of hot tea for Han Lizheng and Hu Hanyun. Han Lizheng took it, then looked at Li Zexuan and said, "Xiao Xuan, I've already packed up yesterday. I plan to leave for Hedong Road today to buy all three estates and then start to treat the sewage!"
"Father, you're leaving so soon?"
Han Yuxi was a little reluctant. She looked at Han Lizheng and couldn't help but ask.
"Haha! Yuxi! It's not early anymore! It's already the seventeenth day of the first month. If we don't leave now, the sewage at the mines will affect the people's spring planting! "
Han Lizheng said with a smile. Then, he said earnestly, "After your father leaves, you and Little Xuan will have to take care of Tie Dan. In any case, this kid is much more promising than before. I'm not worried about him! It's you. I hope that you and Xiao Xuan can live a good life. I'll only be at ease if the two of you live well! Speaking of which, if I can become a grandfather this year, I'll be completely satisfied! Haha! "
Although Han Yuxi also wanted to give Li Zexuan a boy or a girl, how could she say such words? She couldn't help but feel embarrassed. "Father! What are you saying! It's still early! "
"Hahaha! Good, good, good! I won't say it! This matter, you and Xiao Xuan can do as you see fit! "
Han Lizheng stroked his beard and comforted her.
"Since father-in-law has decided to leave today, this son-in-law will arrange for guards to pack up the money and escort father-in-law to Hedong Road. Once you've settled down there, this son-in-law will ask them to come back!"
Li Zexuan said with a serious face.
"Mm! That's good too! The money needed to buy a manor isn't a small amount. Xiao Xuan, you can send some people to protect it! "
Han Lizheng nodded, then patted Hu Hanyun's shoulder and said to Li Zexuan, "Xiao Xuan, other than this, I have another matter. This time, I'm going to Hedong Road and I probably won't be back in a short period of time. So, I'm thinking that it's better to let Old Hu be the Han Manor's Village Chief. Otherwise, if I'm not around for a long time, I'll delay the Han Manor's affairs! "
