Chapter 3461

However, now Su Xinghui's performance had already proven that he was not that kind of person. The contribution he could make in the officialdom was far greater than the contribution he could make by doing academic work. After all, he had improved the lives of thousands of people.

Professor Qin encouraged Su Xinghui to continue working hard. Su Xinghui nodded and agreed, saying that he would definitely not fail the name of Professor Qin's student.

Min Tong asked Professor Qin while driving how he evaluated him as a student.

Professor Qin smiled and gave Min Tong an eight-character comment: "Poor at academic research, but skilled at making money!"

Professor Qin's wife and Su Xinghui both laughed out loud. Min Tong pretended to be aggrieved and said: "Teacher, I didn't expect that I would have this image in your mind!"

Professor Qin said solemnly: "What's wrong with being skilled at making money? You are running an enterprise now; the enterprise's employees must be at least tens of thousands, right? Being able to provide employment opportunities for tens of thousands of people and letting them earn reasonable remuneration to support their families is already a great kindness."

Min Tong said solemnly: "Teacher, I will definitely keep your teachings in mind."

The two sent Professor Qin and his wife home and helped them upstairs until they entered the house. Professor Qin let them go in and sit for a while, drink some tea, and Professor Qin also tested Su Xinghui and Min Tong's knowledge of Sinology.

However, what disappointed him was that, let alone Min Tong, even Su Xinghui's Sinology had greatly regressed, which made Professor Qin shake his head repeatedly.

Of course, he could also understand that Min Tong's foundation in Sinology was not very good to begin with and he was in the business world, and although Su Xinghui's foundation was good, he was busy with official business now, so it was very normal for him to have regressed in Sinology. Since Su Xinghui chose this path, he couldn't have both.

He also asked Su Xinghui to write a piece of calligraphy. Su Xinghui wrote "Sympathy for the Farmers": "Hoeing at noon, sweat drips into the soil, who knows the food on the plate, every grain is hard-earned."

After this calligraphy was written, Professor Qin nodded repeatedly and called it good, saying that Su Xinghui's calligraphy skills had grown again, and this poem was also good. An official like Su Xinghui should have such a heart of sympathy for farmers.

However, Professor Qin said meaningfully that Li Shen, who wrote this poem, later became an official himself, but after he became an official, he forgot his original heart of sympathy for farmers and became a big corrupt official, unscrupulously plundering the people's wealth and bullying the villagers. Therefore, although this poem was good, the poet had changed his flavor.

Su Xinghui heard Professor Qin's words and knew that Professor Qin was using Li Shen's story to warn him. He accepted the teaching solemnly, saying that he would definitely learn from Li Shen's lesson, not forget his original intention, and would definitely seek welfare for the people for the rest of his life.

Professor Qin heard Su Xinghui's words and nodded with a smile of relief.

Su Xinghui was his most proud disciple. Of course, he hoped that Su Xinghui could be a good official, a clean official, and leave a good name in history, rather than leaving a bad name for ten thousand years like those corrupt officials.
