In order to stimulate the students of Grade 12, Xingcheng No. 1 High School would post the results of the top 500 students of the monthly test on the bulletin board at the school gate. The school would also reward the top 100 students with a generous amount of cash.
The first place would be rewarded with 10,000 yuan, the second and third places would be rewarded with 6,000 yuan, the fourth to sixth places would be rewarded with 3,000 yuan, the seventh to tenth places would be rewarded with 1,000 yuan, the 11th to 50th places would be rewarded with 500 yuan, and the 51st to 100th places would be rewarded with 100 yuan.
Because of the various measures taken by the school, a strange scene would appear in Xingcheng No. 1 High School on the first Monday of every month.
After hearing the bell, all the students didn't rush to the cafeteria one after another. Instead, they all gathered in front of the bulletin board at the school gate.
Not only Grade 12 students gathered in front of the bulletin board, but Grade 10 and Grade 2 students also couldn't help but look at the results. This was because not only the people they knew were on the list, but the dazzling names and results on the list were also their goal and motivation.
"Wow, the first place of this monthly test actually scored 712 points. Am I seeing things?"
"Yang Jian's results improved again. No wonder he's a straight-A student. If he had this result in the college entrance examination, he would probably be able to choose Jinghua University or Shuimu University."
"No, the first place is not Yang Jian. It's a strange name. Who knows Tan Xiu? How come I've never heard of him before? He actually scored 79 points higher than the second place Yang Jian!"
…
The first place on the list was the most eye-catching and also the one that everyone paid the most attention to.
When the students of Xingcheng No. 1 High School found out that Yang Jian, who had occupied the first place for a long time, had been replaced by someone else, there was an uproar under the bulletin board. Everyone thought there was something wrong with their eyes.
After all, there was a process to improve one's results. A guy who had never been in the top 10 suddenly appeared at the top of the list, which was an eyesore no matter how they looked at it.
"I know Tan Xiu. He's in our class five. He once entered Xingcheng No. 1 High School with the highest score in the city. During his first year of high school, he excelled in all kinds of exams and competitions, including the first place in all subjects."
"Tan Xiu is in our class 10. Look at the note behind his name, he's also in class 10. What does he have to do with your class five?"
"Isn't there something wrong with Tang Xiu's brain? How could he suddenly emerge as a new force this time? Could it be that the rumors are wrong? Could it be that Tang Xiu has been pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger for the past two years and deliberately threw the test?"
Most of the students didn't know about Tan Xiu's situation, but not everyone knew about Tan Xiu's situation. Among them, the students of classes five and ten were the most familiar with Tan Xiu's information.
When the students of the two classes saw that Tan Xiu had scored 712 points, they were not only surprised, but also amazed and worshiped him.
"No, it's impossible, Tan Xiu couldn't have scored so high, his results must be fake!" Yang Jian stared at Tan Xiu's name and score with red eyes, and he roared hysterically.
"Yang Jian, just accept your fate. If Boss cheated in the monthly test, I bet Qiu Loahu would have jumped out and made a fuss. I don't mind telling you one thing. This morning, Boss was called to the Grade 12 office for a re-test. After the re-test, all the teachers, including the principal, confirmed that Boss's results are real and valid." As soon as Yang Jian finished his words, he heard a sneer. It was Yuan Chuling, who was standing behind Yang Jian.
Tan Xiu didn't hide the fact that he was called to the Grade 12 office for a re-test from Yuan Chuling, and he also didn't hide it from Cheng Yannan.
Although Yuan Chuling and Cheng Yannan didn't believe what Tan Xiu said at the time, and they didn't believe that Tan Xiu could score 712 points, they had to accept the fact slowly.
In the four classes in the morning, almost every teacher would praise Tan Xiu generously after entering the classroom, and some teachers even directly invited Tan Xiu to stand on the podium to explain the monthly test paper.
Although the students of Class 10 had poor results, it was only because they didn't put too much effort into their studies, and it wasn't because they had a problem with their IQ.
It could be explained as a coincidence that a teacher expressed goodwill to Tan Xiu.
It could be explained as a coincidence that two teachers expressed goodwill to Tan Xiu.
When all the teachers expressed goodwill to Tan Xiu, there was only one possibility, and that was that Tan Xiu's academic results had convinced these teachers, and made them admire and approve of Tan Xiu from the bottom of their hearts.
"Boss's results plummeted after the first year of high school. Do you really think that his results have dropped? He's just tired of all kinds of exams and competitions, so he purposely slacked off during the exams. I didn't expect that when Boss gave the first place to you, not only did you not know how to thank him, but you also did your best to humiliate him. Now that Boss is starting to get serious, I want to see how you can compete with Boss!"
"You're not a good person, and that Qiu Loahu is not a good person either. Boss originally planned to show his true abilities during the college entrance exams, but you guys just had to be so aggressive, not only did you want to kick Boss out of Class 5, but you also wanted to kick Boss out of the school. So Boss had to show some of his true abilities, and teach you snobs a lesson, and don't look down on others through the cracks of the door. "
…
Seeing Yang Jian's dumbfounded expression, Yuan Chuling was extremely happy. Without waiting for Yang Jian to reply, he spat out all the words that he had buried in his heart for a long time like a machine gun.
Faced with Yuan Chuling's insults, Yang Jian really wanted to refute, and even directly beat up Yuan Chuling.
However, Yang Jian, who had already experienced Yuan Chuling's tongue, knew that the only area where he could beat Yuan Chuling was his academic results. When it came to arguing, he was miles away from Yuan Chuling.
As for fighting, he was even less of a match for Yuan Chuling.
"The person who got first place was Tan Xiu, not you, so why are you so smug?" Yang Jian glanced around and realized that Tan Xiu wasn't near the announcement board. He curled his lips, threw out a sour sentence, and turned to leave.
"I … Tan Xiu is my boss, how can I be happy for him!" Yuan Chuling was choked by Yang Jian's words, and only after Yang Jian's figure disappeared into the crowd did he yell at the crowd.
In the crowd, Su Xiangfei clearly heard the conversation between Yuan Chuling and Yang Jian, and his face turned extremely ugly.
Su Xiangfei already knew that Tang Xiu had obtained the first place in the whole cohort in the Monthly Test even before the results were announced in the morning.
This morning was a kind of torture for Su Xiangfei.
Because the people around Su Xiangfei drew a clear line with him, and all gathered around Tan Xiu and Yuan Chuling. Su Xiangfei, who had always enjoyed the treatment of being surrounded by stars, suddenly became a loner.
The teachers who usually doted on Su Xiangfei seemed to have forgotten about Su Xiangfei's existence today, and all their eyes were focused on Tan Xiu.
Although Tan Xiu and Yuan Chuling didn't taunt or ridicule Su Xiangfei, the other students' gazes made him feel uneasy. He never found sitting in a classroom so uncomfortable.
This day was destined to be the day that Tan Xiu rose.
This day was also an unforgettable day for many students of Xingcheng # 1 High School.
"Haha, I told you that my Big Brother is absolutely not an ordinary person. You see, you see, your people's ability to gather information is so bad, they are not as good as my people!" In the West Pool Resort, after Long Zhenglin received a text message, he laughed and then handed the phone to a youth sitting opposite him.
"712 points? Xingcheng # 1 High School got first place in March's monthly exam, but this result doesn't mean anything. At most, it shows that his academic performance is excellent, that's all. Do you think that a bookworm can help us snatch Walled Hill Village from the hands of a group of rich second generations? "Long Zhengyu looked at the text message on the phone and said in disapproval.
"Big Brother, please believe me this time. Tan Xiu's observation and calculation ability are really strong. Didn't those rich second generations say that Walled Hill Village is completely up to luck? Apart from Tan Xiu, do you think you can find other casino experts in Star City to help you?" Seeing that his big brother was stubborn, Long Zhenglin became anxious.
Hearing this, Long Zhengyu was silent.
The Long Family started by relying on the F&B business and had been immersed in this industry for 50 years. The Long Family's F&B business was already the hegemon in the entire Shuangqing Province.
But in the past two years, the general environment was not good, which led to the profit of the F&B business becoming more and more meager. Therefore, the Long Family began to seek market transformation and then aimed at the F&B business.
After a lot of market research and field investigation, the Long Family locked their target on Walled Hill Village, which was less than 50 kilometers away from the main city area.
However, before the Long Family had the time to start on Walled Hill Village, the news that Walled Hill Village was included in the Shuangqing Province's overall urban and rural planning blueprint suddenly came. Walled Hill Village, with its more than 600 years of unique historical culture and natural landscape, was one of the famous scenic spots.
After this news spread out, all the rich second generations in the Shuangqing Province rushed to Walled Hill Village, wanting to get a piece of the cake.
Originally, those rich second generations didn't have any confidence in developing Walled Hill Village. But when they learned that the Long Family was unexpectedly eyeing this piece of land, their confidence instantly burst.
Because of the Long Family's investment projects in the past few years, the Long Family seemed to have never failed. So much so that the Long Family's investment field became the wind vane for all the people in the circle.
However, because of the Long Family's influence in the Shuangqing Province, the Long Family was the first to aim at Walled Hill Village. Therefore, the rich second generations of the Shuangqing Province didn't dare to forcibly snatch Walled Hill Village from the Long Family's hands. Therefore, they could only join hands to pressure the Long Family and make a bet. Whoever won the bet, the development rights of Walled Hill Village would belong to that person.
It seemed to be for the sake of testing the younger generation or training the successor. Regarding the competition for the Walled Hill Village project, the elders of the several families didn't take any action and let the rich second generations toss and turn within the rules.
This was the first time that Long Zhengyu was independently responsible for the development of a project. He was ambitious and had never thought that he would encounter other people's joint attack when he just took over the project.
Facing these people's carefully arranged bet, Long Zhengyu found that he was unexpectedly forced into a dead end. In desperation, he could only seek help from his younger brother, who was known as a ghost.
He didn't know what was wrong with his younger brother, who had always been so wise that he even recommended an ordinary high school student to him. This made Long Zhengyu lose confidence in obtaining the development rights of Walled Hill Village.
