Chapter 82: Burning a Cold Stove Well

In Principal Chang's office, he was the only one there.

After Li Ye entered, he was arranged a seat.

"Li Ye! I saw your grades in this year's preliminary exam... I'm very surprised, very unexpected!"

Li Ye didn't respond.

Principal Chang glanced at Li Ye meaningfully and said: "Your self-study group has eight people, and six of them actually entered the top ten of the class,

Even two of them exceeded four hundred points. Is there any secret?"

Li Ye "pondered" for a while and said: "It should be that this year's preliminary exam questions were relatively simple!"

Principal Chang frowned, not knowing what to say.

Very simple? You say this year's questions were very simple?

Six people suddenly jumped from outside the top twenty to the top ten, and even occupied the first and second places. You say it's just because the questions were simple?

Why didn't we feel it was simple?

So, the County No. 2 Middle School, which possesses us professional teachers, is not as good as your self-organized small self-study room?

Principal Chang took a deep breath secretly and said: "You think this year's questions were simple? If that's the case, why did you score the lowest?"

Li Ye said very frankly: "I was too lazy to do them, because the preliminary exam is just a qualification match, there's no need to score so high. With that time to do questions, I might as well conceive the outline and write a few pages of novels!"

"........."

【If your grandfather wasn't a bureau chief, I would slap you now... too lazy to do them? Why aren't you too lazy to eat?】

Principal Chang picked up his tea mug and took a sip to suppress his shock.

"Alright, even if you were too lazy to do them, if you took the exam with all your might, how much could you score?"

"Who can say for sure?"

"Just guess and say it?"

Li Ye tilted his head and looked at Principal Chang, who was blowing on the tea leaves while sipping slowly, and smiled slightly.

Principal Chang had just taken a sip of water and hadn't swallowed it into his throat yet when Li Ye "seized the opportunity" to report a score.

"I can score 600 points."

"Pfft~"

"Cough cough cough cough, I... cough cough cough cough..."

Li Ye spread his hands, looking like it wasn't his fault: "Look, I said you wouldn't believe me!"

"I... I... cough..."

Principal Chang coughed violently, pointed at Li Ye, and finally shouted a word after a long time.

"Damn~"

Don't think that cultured people aren't rude. The principals of this era all came from the war years; without some fighting history, they wouldn't be embarrassed to sit in this chair.

Without a couple of special skills, can you hold the field?

Principal Chang's chest heaved violently.

Li Ye sat quietly.

After a long time, Principal Chang sat down quietly.

"I really don't believe you can score 600 points, but you might not be able to score 400. You believe in my experience and vision..."

"You scored 305 points this time, which is a big improvement from last year, and you are stable enough to pass the junior college entrance exam.

I know you write novels well, but if you stop writing novels for now and put all your mind into the college entrance exam, junior college is not impossible..."

Li Ye felt Principal Chang's "earnest advice" and also knew that Principal Chang's words made sense.

He even thought about pausing "Fleeing Soldiers in the Flames of War," taking a breath, and resting.

But...

【Those reader bosses are really too... enthusiastic!】

Over the past few months, Li Ye had been sending emails every ten days or so to ensure that the special readers in Beijing could see the serialization of "Fleeing Soldiers in the Flames of War."

And every time the manuscript was sent four or five days later, there would inevitably be enthusiastic feedback.

Some said it was well written, some said it was written too little, and some disliked Li Ye for being secretive and not writing deeply enough.

But without exception, at the end of the feedback letter, they would all write a similar paragraph.

【I am looking forward to the story behind, but must focus on the college entrance exam.】

Even a reader from the power system once asked if he was willing to attend a junior college in the power system.

You say there are such good readers, does Li Ye dare to stop updating?

Does he have the face to stop updating?

Even updating less won't work!

Seeing Li Ye silent, Principal Chang really had no way.

If it were another student, he wouldn't even need to take action; Dean Tang Feiyu could handle him until he was obedient.

The dean of this era is a "master of fist," beating children until they cry for their parents.

But Tang Feiyu didn't take this job at all.

Why?

Not to mention that he has a bureau chief grandfather, just look at Li Ye himself—he is a "writer" now, not an ordinary student.

"Lurking" has been published for several months, and the supply at the county Xinhua Bookstore is still tight. A total of two batches have arrived, and they were sold out quickly.

Asking the city's Xinhua Bookstore for books, they are not even full themselves! Giving your Qingshui County two batches of books is because the publishing house specially instructed it.

How hot is this sales volume?

Several teachers who have studied related fields whispered privately that if this momentum continues, Li Ye might enter the provincial writers' association.

So, you would have to be crazy to go and clean up Li Ye!

Principal Chang finally said helplessly: "Even if the exam questions this time were simple, Jiang Xiaoyan still scored second in the county! With such good grades, don't you share your experience? Among classmates, friendship..."

Li Ye rolled his eyes and said directly: "Principal, you have to go ask Jiang Xiaoyan about this! What's the use of asking me?"

"........."

Principal Chang was stunned for two seconds and was blown away by anger again.

"What's the use of asking you? You are a thief leader, I don't ask you, do I ask those small fry? You say what's the use of asking you? Huh?"

Thief leader is the dialect of Qingshui County, which means a child king who leads a group of bear children to cause trouble all day long.

Li Ye naturally didn't accept this title.

He asked back very arrogantly: "Principal, you say this to me, I am not convinced. I didn't lead classmates to steal chickens and dogs, nor did I lead classmates to fight in the street,

Three, for the harmony of the class, I took the initiative to avoid conflict and find a venue, to ensure the normal learning environment of the classmates... why did I become a thief leader?"

Principal Chang, whose anger hadn't subsided, sucked his teeth, and his cheeks trembled twice.

At this moment, he felt that he was not facing a student of eighteen or nineteen, but an old and cunning hunter.

Is Li Ye a good student?

Should... not be, right?

Anyway, no one in the school says he is a good baby.

But he really didn't cause trouble!

Last month, the police station in the south of the city came to investigate. A student jumped into the agricultural machinery station in the middle of the night and pushed the newly repaired tractor against the wall.

Hundreds of yuan in losses! Principal Chang said a lot of good things before he calmed it down.

A few days ago, a group of children in the second year of high school fought with school outsiders on the north street. He led seven or eight teachers to rush to support before a disaster was avoided.

But what about Li Ye?

He just caused a little class conflict and took the initiative to avoid it.

You... looking for trouble is not easy to find, what should I do?

Forget it, don't do it.

Li Ye has already said about the "taking the initiative to avoid" thing, which is already expressing his dissatisfaction.

When you conflicted with Xia Yue and the others, why didn't you teachers say anything about "classmate friendship"? Are we stepchildren?

Alright, we hid out ourselves, and when the results came out, you thought of your own son?

Principal Chang closed his eyes and meditated for a few seconds.

After opening his eyes again, he no longer had some of his previous thoughts.

"Alright, all roads lead to Rome. It's your freedom to choose the path of a writer, but you can't delay Watching Wen Leyu because of writing novels!

I heard that you often let Watching Wen Leyu copy your novel manuscripts? Look, she only scored 306 this time, and English was 26 points... What's the situation?"

What's the situation? Controlling scores like me!

But the little girl is cute and cute, you have an English teacher mother, and you controlled English to 26 points? You're fooling a fool?

Perhaps, Watching Wen Leyu is not fooling a fool, she is just too lazy to care about other people's thoughts.

Li Ye, you let me control the score, so I control the score. As for what others think and whether they believe it, I care if they die?

"Principal Chang, I think you should go ask Teacher Ke! I don't understand girls' things."

".........."

"Okay, you go back first! Study hard, strive to bloom on both sides, write more excellent literary works, and score a better grade in the college entrance exam."

Li Ye went out.

A few minutes later, Teacher Luo, Teacher Hu, and the head teacher of Repeater Class 3, Teacher Liu, walked in.

Teacher Liu asked first: "Principal, how is it?"

Principal Chang said: "No problem, their learning group has a good learning environment, and the students are also diligent, so the grades naturally went up."

"Impossible," Teacher Liu said firmly: "I know Jiang Xiaoyan's grades before, but this time she scored second in the county. It's absolutely impossible without exclusive review materials."

Principal Chang glanced at him and said: "Even if they have exclusive review materials, what can you do? They don't want to give them, do you still want to grab them?"

Teacher Liu's face was not good, but he still insisted: "I'm also for the school's grades! Principal, ask again? Li Ye is selfless. I heard that their learning group eats meat every day, all from his manuscript fees........"

Where did Principal Chang suddenly raise his voice: "If you want to ask, go ask yourself, I can't afford to lose that person. Besides, when Teacher Luo raised money to buy review materials, what were you doing? Now you know you're anxious......."

Teacher Liu didn't speak sheepishly.

At the beginning, Xia Yue entrusted Lu Jingyao to buy college entrance exam materials, which required money. Otherwise, how could Lu Jingyao, that poor person, buy the incomparably popular Haidian Teachers' Training School materials.

Before and after, dozens of yuan, Teacher Luo paid the money, and the students in Class 1 raised the money, but Teacher Liu's Class 3 didn't pay.

Thinking that the papers would come, everyone could copy them, but Xia Yue formed a "Book Protection Group,"

The people in her own class couldn't copy them in time! How could it be your turn?

Teacher Liu was angry, but he didn't lose face to find Teacher Luo.

But he never expected that the study materials would be so useful. This time, Xia Yue actually scored 404 points, and Jin Shengli scored 375 points.

What level is this?

Two junior college students, or even a junior college and an undergraduate level!

Materials are important, everyone knows.

But aren't free materials even more fragrant?

Now that they can't eat them, they can only beg Principal Chang here, hoping to get a regret medicine.

"Xiao Luo, I remember last year....... Li Ye mentioned transferring schools to you?"

".........."

Teacher Luo was stunned and nodded hurriedly.

"These children must be kept. If one is missing, I will ask you."

Principal Chang looked at the other two teachers who were unwilling to give up and said with a gloomy face: "There is only more than a month left before the college entrance exam. It's too late to burn a cold stove now!"

"I warn you, if you dare to mess around and affect the children's grades, I won't spare you."

Principal Chang's last sentence made the three teachers feel a gloomy chill.

This year, it is clear that the school is going to have a harvest. If five or six college students can be produced, he, the principal who has been second for ten thousand years, will definitely show off his face.

As for the opinions of several head teachers, just keep them obediently!

Several teachers walked out with their heads down. Teacher Liu suddenly looked back and said: "Principal, can you talk to Teacher Ke and ask her to help us buy some college entrance exam materials? We will pay, pay a high price."

Principal Chang didn't speak, just looked at him coldly. In less than five seconds, Teacher Liu walked away sadly.

"Sigh~"

"You still don't understand, that selfless and mutual aid era....... has passed."

It's not that Principal Chang doesn't want to help the students, it's just that his communication with Teacher Ke is no longer so comfortable.

Beijing's packages are being sent here one after another, and Beijing's phone calls are being made continuously.

The school's phone is in the principal's office, all of which are calls from XX Ministry and XX Committee. He, a small principal, really can't afford to provoke them.

At the beginning, Principal Chang was still in the office, pricking up his ears to listen, but now, when Teacher Ke answers the phone, he is embarrassed to stay in the office.

"Sigh~~"

【If Teacher Ke really returns to work, then this kid Li Ye has burned a cold stove well.】

(A high school teacher of the author said that one of his top student classmates ignored all questions, didn't participate in any activities that delayed study, was alone, and was despised by classmates,

Later, people took the exam for a key university and left. Many years later, at the classmate reunion, they invited people, but they didn't come... These words were all said with a contemptuous mood.) ===== CHAPTER 83 =====
