Chapter 52: How important it is to know English
Tao Xueming bought cookies from the commissary, and then found that Zhou Xiaoqiang had left.
Originally, I was going to divide a few pieces of each other.
Tao Xueming walked back while eating, and met some students on the way, all of whom cast envious and eager eyes.
Eat a cookie and still be noticed?
Tao Xueming muttered in his mouth, then put away the biscuits and ran back quickly.
"Baozi, how is business today. ”
After Tao Xueming ran into the bathhouse, he saw Baozi sneakily at the counter, and as soon as he appeared, Baozi stood up suddenly.
"Baozi, what are you doing?" Tao Xueming's eyes showed suspicion and walked over directly.
"No, nothing. ”
Baozi said with a flushed face.
"Show me what you've got in your hand. ”
Tao Xueming stretched out his hand and snatched it from the other party's hand, looked at it fixedly, and immediately smiled, it turned out to be a children's book.
I looked through it casually, and there was nothing wrong with the book.
"You're blushing. He asked.
Bao Zhipeng lowered his head in embarrassment: "I bought two copies for a dime, I'm afraid you will scold me ......"
Tao Xueming laughed out loud, is he that kind of person, it's just a dime or two, and the flowers are spent.
"Let me tell you, after I went to class today, I met a good-looking girl in the class, her name is Yao Yun, do you know her?"
"I don't know. Bao Zhipeng shook his head.
Tao Xueming sat down and crossed Erlang's legs, and said with a big grin: "I'll just make a joke, that girl blushes, it's so funny." ”
Bao Zhipeng sighed, he reached out to pick up the children's book, sat down and continued to read, obviously not interested in school affairs.
Tao Xueming was going to continue, but after he observed that the other party's expression was wrong, he immediately shut up.
"I check the accounts. ”
Tao Xueming took out the account book with a smile and began to settle the accounts.
A few hours later, the mahjong parlor closed its doors and Xiang Yuhang returned with the ledger.
Tao Xueming checked the two, and today a day, another two or three hundred yuan was credited.
Although the business has been relatively stable recently, Tao Xueming is not happy at all.
This is eight or nine years, the age of gold everywhere, if you only earn a few hundred yuan a day, you will never be able to get ahead.
You'll have to find another trick.
Video halls, swimming pools, or game halls, you can make money by getting any of them first.
Tao Xueming closed the account book and carefully calculated, the cost of opening the game hall first may be relatively high, and it is not time to swim.
Only the video hall is relatively simple.
Find a few rooms, get a few machines and a TV to play.
"Baozi, let's open a video hall. ”
Tao Xueming said.
"What are you talking about?" Bao Zhipeng hurriedly raised his head and looked at him in surprise.
Tao Xueming repeated again: "We will open a video hall in the county, just get a few machines." ”
Bao Zhipeng has a blank face, open a video hall?
He had never thought of such a big project.
"Xiang Yuhang, what do you think?"
"I think so. ”
Xiang Yuhang nodded and said, "The video hall has already appeared in our south, and you don't even have a decent one here in the north." ”
"Even in such a big coal cloud county, there is not a single one, if we open it, it will definitely be hot. ”
Bao Zhipeng also stammered, he didn't understand anything, anyway, just nod his head.
"Then it's decided, let's look for a house first, and then go to the city to buy equipment. ”
Tao Xueming said, took out the pen and notebook, and began to settle the accounts.
He plans to get two in the early stage, and the cost will be about 3,000 yuan.
Taking out three thousand yuan is already his limit, and if he has more, he will have a few dollars left in his hand.
Food and clothing will be a problem at that time.
Bao Zhipeng chatted quietly with Xiang Yuhang next to him, asking questions all the time.
When he heard that a video recorder would cost about one or two thousand yuan, Bao Zhipeng gasped.
He didn't expect a video opportunity to be so expensive, could they afford it?
Thinking of this, Bao Zhipeng subconsciously looked at his BP machine, and a thought popped up in his mind.
……
Early the next morning, Tao Xueming didn't go to school, and began to look for a house in the county, in fact, it is very simple to get a playback hall, just shelter from the wind and rain, and there are no other requirements.
He wandered around the bathhouse and soon had his eyes on two uninhabited houses.
After inquiring around, I learned that the occupants of the house had died a few years ago, and both houses were empty.
Tao Xueming's eyes lit up, isn't this a ready-made house, and no one lives in it, so you can come by yourself.
You don't even need to apply at all, just open a business here.
Immediately, Tao Xueming pushed open the door and walked into this square, and after looking around, his heart settled.
After that, Tao Xueming returned to the bathhouse, took a broom or something, called Xiang Yuhang, and came here to clean together.
The school bell rang, Yao Yun sat up straight, put her arms on the desk, turned her head, and found that Tao Xueming, who was new yesterday, was not there.
At this time, the teacher came in, and Yao Yun hurriedly stood up and shouted hello to the teacher.
After all the classmates sat down, Zhou Xiaoqiang also found the empty seats and asked, "Why didn't Tao Xueming come?" ”
"I don't know. Yao Yun shook her head.
"This kid, he won't come if he doesn't say a word, is the school his own home? ”
Zhou Xiaoqiang frowned.
"Teacher Zhou, come on. ”
The head teacher shouted outside.
"Teacher Liu, what's wrong?"
The head teacher first smiled bitterly, and then said, "A few foreigners are here, but we don't understand the language, Mr. Zhou, do you know English?"
"I won't. ”
Zhou Xiaoqiang shook his head and asked, "Isn't there an English teacher in our school?" ”
"Hey, don't mention it, it's hard to say, it's a shame to say it. ”
The head teacher said helplessly: "The English teacher in our school is too poor, only a few simple words, and there is no way to communicate with foreigners." ”
"The principal has already gone to the county to find someone who can speak English, but I don't know if I can find it. ”
Zhou Xiaoqiang shook his head, I'm afraid the situation is not very optimistic, now there are a few teachers who can speak English, and the teachers who can speak English are staying in the big city.
No one would come to such a small place.
An hour or two later, the principal came back with a sad face, and seven or eight teachers immediately surrounded him.
"Don't ask, I can't find it. ”
The principal waved his hand: "I have asked all over the county, and none of them can speak English." ”
Hearing this, all the teachers looked at each other, and they couldn't find anyone who could speak English, so what should I do?
Just when all the teachers were in trouble, Zhou Xiaoqiang suddenly thought of someone, and he said, "Principal, do you want to let Yao Yun in our class try?"
"Is she okay?" said the head teacher, surprised.
"Try it, Yao Yun's family conditions are so good, what if it will. ”
With that, Zhou Xiaoqiang went back to the classroom and called Yao Yun.
A few minutes later, Zhou Xiaoqiang took Yao Yun to the principal's office.
"Yao Yun, do you know English, can you communicate with foreigners?"
The headmaster asked expectantly.
Yao Yun was a little nervous, and stumbled and said: "I have studied with the teacher for a month, and I can say two or three sentences, and I can't communicate ......."
"Then it's better to try than not to have it at all. ”
As if he saw hope, the principal immediately stood up, and then took Yao Yun to find a foreigner.
Seven or eight teachers followed closely behind, and a group of people all came to the reception room.
When I entered the reception room, I saw two men and one woman chatting.
The principal gestured with his hand, and opened his mouth to say something, but he was afraid that the other party would not understand.
"Yao Yun, it's up to you. ”
Zhou Xiaoqiang said in a low voice.
Yao Yun was also nervous at this time, she stepped forward boldly, and then spoke in very broken and not very fluent English.
At first, she could still say two sentences, but after saying a few words, Yao Yun looked confused, because she couldn't understand the back.
Several foreigners were also very angry, and after shouting a few times, they took their bags and left angrily.
The principal's head was stunned, this is over, he offended the foreigner, how can he explain it to his superiors.
All the teachers were also sweating anxiously, this foreigner, but the county spent a lot of money to invite him to be an English teacher.
If they can't communicate with others, it is impossible for them to stay, and the county leaders will scold them to death.
What to do, what to do!
The principal's anxious head was smoking, and there was no one who could speak English among the hundreds of thousands of people in the entire coal cloud county.
If he can't keep a foreigner, he, the principal, will come to an end.
Everyone in the room was anxious to cry.
Yao Yun was also very aggrieved, she felt that she had betrayed the trust of the teachers, and she felt very uncomfortable, and her tears began to roll.
……
Tao Xueming followed Xiang Yuhang, and it took two or three hours to clean the two rooms.
He just got rid of the dust and cobwebs in the house, and he didn't bother to get the rest of the mud or something.
With that in mind, all that's left is to set up a stool, then put a TV and VCR.
You have to go to the city to buy these.
Tao Xueming walked out of the room and said, "I'll go to the city to buy equipment, and you and Baozi will stay and watch the store." ”
"Brother Tao Zi, can you go alone?" asked Xiang Yuhang.
"Nonsense, of course I did. ”
Tao Xueming said with a smile: "Otherwise, I will call Sister Cuicui to go together, and an adult can take care of it." ”
Xiang Yuhang nodded, not asking anything.
Then, the two walked back together.
When walking, Tao Xueming kept chatting with Xiang Yuhang and didn't look at the road.
With a bang, he collided with the man in front of him.
Tao Xueming looked up and saw that there were three foreigners, two men and one woman.
"I'll you, don't you walk long?"
Tao Xueming said angrily.
The above words, he said in English, and the three foreigners widened their eyes and understood.
Tao Xueming found that the eyes of the three foreigners seemed to be wrong, as if they were looking at aliens.
"Hurry up. ”
Tao Xueming was also afraid of getting into trouble, so he hurriedly pulled Xiang Yuhang and ran away.
However, after he ran away, the three foreigners came back to their senses, and then all three of them shouted excitedly, and went to chase after them.
Tao Xueming looked back and found that the three people were chasing him, and his frightened soul was about to fly out, so he hurriedly ran desperately.
In the blink of an eye, he threw off the three foreigners.
