A silver-colored treasure chest appeared before him!
Sun Mo really wanted to open it immediately, but considering his unlucky physique, there was a high chance that he would waste this treasure chest. Hence, he could only suppress the impulse in his heart.
It was better to open it after he touched the papaya girl that could increase his luck.
"Here are two sets of teacher attire. If they are torn, you can go to the logistics department to get new ones."
An Xinhui passed a stack of folded clothes to Sun Mo.
The azure material wasn't luxurious, but it had an extraordinary meaning. In addition to the school emblem on the left chest, it represented the identity of a teacher recognized by the Central Province Academy.
Right now, the Central Province Academy had declined, and the prestige of teachers had also fallen. One must know that over ten years ago, the Central Province Academy's teachers could wear their uniforms on the streets. Regardless of whether they were eating or buying things, they were all treated for free.
Of course, the teachers didn't lack this bit of money. But this was a symbol of status and identity. It was an expression of respect and love.
"How's the salary?"
Sun Mo thought of his pitiful salary in the No. 2 High School. He couldn't even afford the down payment for a house. Hence, he hadn't had a girlfriend until now.
There was no solution to it. Without a house, who would want to date you?
An Xinhui didn't expect Sun Mo to ask so directly and was a little astonished. Zhou Lin, who was at the side, was even more dumbfounded.
(You're a teacher, and your goal is to educate people. You should be ashamed to talk about money. How can you take the initiative to ask about salary?) (Earlier, you said that you wanted to prove yourself. Why did you become so unscrupulous now?)
If it wasn't for An Xinhui glaring at her, Zhou Lin would have wanted to say something.
"100 taels a month!"
An Xinhui replied.
"Are there any other benefits?"
Sun Mo was very satisfied. To a teacher who had just become a full-time teacher, this salary wasn't low. One must know that an ordinary family of three would only spend over 100 taels a year.
"The school's canteen provides free food and lodging. Every summer and winter, there would be heatstroke prevention and heating fees. There would also be gifts given during the New Year Festival. All in all, it's a lot of money."
Zhou Lin rushed to reply, her tone filled with superiority.
She was very proud of this point. After all, compared to the Myriad Daos Academy, the school's benefits weren't inferior.
"Seems like a starving camel is still bigger than a horse. The Central Province Academy isn't as dilapidated and poor as the rumors say."
Sun Mo immediately retorted.
"You …"
Zhou Lin was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood. Could they still have a pleasant conversation?
"Even if I have to suffer, the teachers' benefits will definitely not be reduced."
An Xinhui explained. This was what she had done. During these two years, the Central Province Academy's funds had already been stretched to the limit. However, she had never tried to reduce the funds.
In particular, the scholarships were distributed as scheduled because some poor students relied on these scholarships to continue their studies.
Sun Mo looked at An Xinhui and didn't know what to say. Although her moon-white long robe was washed clean, judging from the degree of wear and tear, he knew that she had worn it for a few years.
To a 3-star master teacher, this kind of attire was really too shabby.
"Is that so? In that case, I can be at ease and eat red braised pork for every meal. In any case, it's free! "After saying that, Sun Mo patted his clothes." Is there anything else? If there's nothing else, I'm leaving! "
"Everything's fine now!"
An Xinhui instructed, "Zhou Lin, bring Sun Mo to the office to take a look and familiarize him with the teachers."
"Go!"
Zhou Lin wanted nothing more than to strangle Sun Mo to death. The eldest miss hadn't eaten meat for a very long time. The meals she had every day were extremely simple and crude.
Seeing Sun Mo heading out, An Xinhui had just sat down when she heard his voice ringing out from outside.
"When will the salary be distributed? It won't be delayed, right? "
"Bringing students to the canteen for a meal? Can it be free? No? What about half-price? "
"The free meals wouldn't be limited, right?"
Sun Mo's voice was very pleasant to the ears. It was like the feeling of sunlight landing on one's body, warm and giving one a sense of security. However, the words he said now were asking for a beating.
An Xinhui could imagine how angry Zhou Lin would be.
"I didn't expect Sun Mo to have changed so much after not seeing him for a few years. This is especially so for his mouth. It's actually so venomous now!"
An Xinhui couldn't help but smile. The fatigue she had been feeling for the past few days suddenly lessened by a lot. After that, she recalled the scene when she saw Sun Mo being headhunted by the 4-star great teacher Yue Rongbo.
"Since you can recruit five students, you must have some capabilities. Can you make me look at you in a different light again?"
An Xinhui mumbled and continued to work. There were only six months left.
The Central Province Academy's situation was very bad and they couldn't afford to lose anymore. If they couldn't get a good ranking in this year's league tournament, they would be delisted and lose their title as a famous school.
At that time, they wouldn't be able to climb back up again.
...
The Central Province Academy hoped that teachers could interact and learn from each other, helping each other to improve. Hence, they used a big office system.
In each office, there would be great teachers of different levels, ranging from 2-star great teachers to newly employed teachers.
Of course, 3-star great teachers and above weren't included. They all had their own private offices.
"It's here. The one on the left is your office desk. If you have any questions, you can ask the other teachers."
After Zhou Lin spoke, she left impatiently. She was afraid that if she continued to stay here, she might really not be able to control herself and want to beat Sun Mo up. This fellow's mouth was too venomous.
The teachers knew that there would be a new teacher today. Hence, when they heard the commotion, they couldn't help but raise their heads to look.
The instant Sun Mo entered, he revealed his eight teeth and switched to his amicable mode. He greeted everyone, "Greetings, teachers. Please guide me well."
Sun Mo used a ruler to measure the curve of his lips and the number of teeth he revealed. After that, he would practice brushing his teeth every morning and night for a few years.
There were a total of ten office desks in the office. They were placed in groups of two, so the teachers were seated in pairs.
Sun Mo immediately saw Lian Zheng, who had a coarse face. Because of Jiang Leng, the two of them had quarreled before, and things were very unpleasant.
Lian Zheng looked straight at Sun Mo, exuding an unyielding aura.
Other than him, there were six other teachers present. An old man and a short-haired lady nodded at him. As for the other four, they either glanced at him and lowered their heads to work, or they were expressionless.
"It's not easy to survive in the workplace!"
Sun Mo sighed ruefully. But for him to lower his stance and smile apologetically just to build a good relationship with his colleagues? That was impossible. Hence, he greeted them and walked straight to his office desk.
"I thought that the one assigned to us would be Teacher Gu!"
Jiang Yongnian touched his chin, looking disappointed. Although he didn't have any thoughts about Gu Xiuxun, his mood would be better if he could work together with a beautiful colleague.
When a young man in his twenties with a faint birthmark on his forehead heard this, his gaze when he looked at Sun Mo became a little unhappy.
"You are..."
The white-haired old man took the initiative to ask.
"Sun Mo!"
Sun Mo replied.
"Mn?"
The smile on the old man's face suddenly froze. He then looked at the surroundings. His meaning was very simple. Did I hear wrongly? Or did the school leaders make a mistake?
Sun Mo? Wasn't he that guy who sponged off a woman?
"Teacher Pan, you went home to visit your grandson these few days, so you don't know. Among the intern teachers this time around, only four managed to recruit five students."
Zhou Shanyi smiled and replied. The meaning behind his words was very clear. Sun Mo had passed the test.
"Four?"
Pan Yi counted with his fingers. "That's not right. I remember that other than Gu Xiuxun, who Headmaster An headhunted from the Myriad Daos Academy, there are three other graduates from the Nine Greats, right?"
Pan Yi turned his head and glanced at Sun Mo. This person definitely wouldn't be able to enter the Nine Greats.
"Qin Fen resigned!"
Jiang Yongnian had always been very well-informed.
"Huh? Why? I remember that he was headhunted by Headmaster An personally. Did something happen? "
Pan Yi was very shocked.
There were three factions in the school. They were the two vice-headmasters, Zhang Hanfu and Wang Su, and the headmaster, An Xinhui. Out of them, An Xinhui was the weakest. This was why she had personally gone out to headhunt people, wanting to increase her own strength. She didn't expect that Qin Fen had resigned.
"He lost the competition and didn't have the face to continue staying!"
Jiang Yongnian was a chatterbox.
"Who did he lose to?"
Pan Yi was curious. There would often be conflicts between teachers. What should they do? It was just a competition. In any case, they wouldn't scold each other like shrews. That would be too unstylish. Suppressing their opponents with strength was what teachers loved to do the most.
"There, he's right in front of you!"
Jiang Yongnian teased.
Pan Yi looked at Sun Mo and couldn't help but cry out, "Huh? Is that true? "
Honestly speaking, these words were a little rude. However, Pan Yi was a 1-star great teacher. He wouldn't care about the thoughts of a new teacher who had just joined the school.
Sun Mo had also just found out that Qin Fen had resigned. Therefore, he was a little surprised.
Yi Jiamin, who had an inconspicuous birthmark on his forehead, curled his lips when he heard this. Was such a trashy achievement worth bragging about?
"Sun Mo, this is your seat!" A short-haired lady in her thirties smiled and greeted Sun Mo. "If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask me!"
"Thank you, big sister!"
Sun Mo just wanted to ask for her name when this short-haired lady introduced herself.
"My name is Xia Yuan. You can call me Sister Xia or Teacher Xia."
Xia Yuan's attitude was very amicable.
"Sister Xia!"
At such a time, this form of address was clearly more intimate. Sun Mo had just arrived and didn't know about the complicated relationships between the various factions in the school. However, from the looks of it, Xia Yuan should be in An Xinhui's faction.
Sun Mo didn't guess wrongly. An Xinhui had specially picked an office for him where he could get along well with his colleagues. She had also instructed Xia Yuan to help him more.
Sun Mo stayed for over ten minutes. After familiarizing himself with the environment, he left.
This was the first time he met with his colleagues. However, Sun Mo didn't mind it. This wasn't the No.2 High School. Even if there was a difference in the teachers' teaching abilities, the difference wouldn't be too big.
This was the Middle-Earth Nine Provinces. If the teachers wanted to get the respect of others, they had to depend on how many great teacher halos they had grasped, their own cultivation base, and how many students they had taught who could get on the Greencloud Rankings.
If ordinary teachers couldn't pass the Saint Gate's great teacher examination and couldn't obtain 'stars', they wouldn't get the recognition and respect of the teachers with 'stars' no matter how much they taught.
"You don't seem to be angry after being treated so coldly?"
The system was surprised.
"Respect is earned through strength and not begged. Don't worry, I'll make them see me in a different light sooner or later."
