At the end of August, Niu Tiangou finally received an appointment from Zhang Counseling in the Nanshan Town School District (the education group is now renamed the school district), which was personally handed over to Zhang Counseling by the head of the Personnel Unit of the Education Bureau.

The head of the white stock is also trustworthy and interesting, and after receiving the money, he will get things done.

Grandma's, this unspoken rule is "spirit" in the end.

Thanks to Zhang's counseling and completing the formalities, Niu Tiangou went directly back to the Xinxing Town School District to report.

Xinxing Town School District is located in a building not far from the town middle school, and the person responsible for receiving him is an accountant in the school district, full of gray hair, because the hair is white with black, black and white, it looks gray and white from a distance, and it is a mottled miscellaneous hair, so it is called "miscellaneous hair" accounting.

After accepting the materials in his hand, the "Zamao" accountant said: "You go to Zheng Counseling (who is in charge of personnel) and see which school he assigns you to." ”

Of course, Niu Tiangou wanted to be assigned to the town middle school, he was originally a middle school teacher, and he heard that the principal of the town middle school was his old classmate in junior high school. With the lesson of reporting in Nanshan Town, he did not go to Zheng for counseling, but went directly to the town middle school to find the principal.

The principal was very happy to see that it was his old classmate Niu Tiangou, and said that the town middle school was short of Chinese teachers, so he immediately led Niu Tiangou to find Zheng Tutoring in the school district and asked for someone directly.

The school district was preparing to assign the newly transferred Niu Tiangou to the elementary school below, because there was also a shortage of people below, and when the principal came to name the dignitaries, he had to give up.

In this way, Niu Tiangou was smoothly assigned to the town middle school.

Nima, it used to be difficult to do, but now with the relationship of an old acquaintance of the principal, entering the town middle school is like playing.

This society is a society of acquaintances and relationships.

……

In addition to a large provincial-run chemical plant and three large residential communities for workers, Xinxing Town also has many town-run factories, local private enterprises and private enterprises imported from other places, numerous residential communities, and two vegetable markets, one large and one small.

The town middle school is located next to the main street of Xinxing Town, the east of the middle school is the town hospital, the west is the town police station, the north is not far from the big vegetable market, the south is close to the town primary school, and the south of the primary school is not far from the provincial highway that runs through Xinxing Town and connects Jiangcheng and Yunyang.

When you turn east from the school gate, you will enter the main street, which is full of shops and businesses. When night falls, the lights are lit up, and the two large shopping supermarkets at opposite ends of the street are full of people, as if it were daytime.

Niu Tiangou deeply felt the prosperity and prosperity of Xinxing Town, which he could not feel in Beihe Township Middle School, Tuhuang Township Primary and Secondary School, and Nanshan Township Belly Depression Primary School.

Nima, it's no wonder that many teachers from township schools in Yunyang County have tried every possible way to transfer to Xinxing Town, and even teachers from other counties have sharpened their heads and drilled in.

Xinxing Town Middle School has more than 150 teachers and nearly 3,000 students, divided into 36 classes.

After reporting to the school, Niu Tiangou was assigned to serve as the Chinese language teacher in Class 2 (10), teaching the same class as Cao Zhengdong, who taught physics.

"I didn't expect us to be together again so soon." As soon as he saw Niu Tiangou, Cao Zhengdong was like seeing an old friend, he was very happy, patted him on the shoulder, and asked this and that, "Uh, where do you live now?" ”

Cao Zhengdong was transferred from Tuhuang Township Middle School in Beihe Town two years ago. He had a relative who worked in the Propaganda Department of Yunyang County, and when he was transferred, he found this relative and spent a little money. I now live in the market across the street from the school. He bought a small storefront in the vegetable market, and his wife sold some side dishes in the vegetable market.

"The school doesn't have housing, so I can only run home." Niu Tiangou said a little helplessly.

"That sister-in-law is still farming at home alone?"

"She's been working for her sister a long time ago."

"Oh, that's fine...... Alas, housing in schools is also really tight right now. Damn, the teacher who lived in the school retired, and left the house to his son, and the son left, and left it to his grandson, and when the son and grandson were not at home, they rented the house to the student's parents. In this way, where will the school get so much money to build housing? I can only grieve us later teachers. When it comes to housing, Cao Zhengdong seems to be dissatisfied in his heart.

"Why don't teachers quit the school house when they retire?"

"The school house is cheaper than the outside house. In a 60-square-meter house in the school, teachers can live in it for only a few thousand yuan, but if they go outside to buy the same commercial house, it is not possible to buy tens of thousands of yuan. Do you think that retired teachers are willing to quit their school houses and buy them outside? That's not an old fool! Now the old teachers who don't teach dominate the school, and the new teachers who teach can't live in the school house. ”

"So...... You just had to buy a house in the wet market? Niu Tiangou smiled.

"Well, don't mention it...... But that's fine, the child can sell some side dishes in the vegetable market and subsidize the family. ”

After Cao Zhengdong finished speaking, he thought about it and suggested: "Why don't you also go to the vegetable market to buy a small house?" Although your home is not far from the school, running around like this, windy and rainy for a long time is not a solution. Besides, now that my sister-in-law is not at home, what's the point of running around by myself? I bought a house in the vegetable market, and even if my sister-in-law no longer works outside in the future, I can start a small business in the vegetable market when I come back, which is better than farming at home. ”

"That's right, I want to buy a house, but ......" Niu Tiangou said a little embarrassed, "how can I have so much money?" ”

"Hey, find a way to borrow some from your family or relatives, and pay it back slowly...... If you want to buy it, I'll keep an eye out for it in the future and help you inquire in the vegetable market to see if there is a suitable small house. "Cao Zhengdong is very enthusiastic.

Thinking that there was some truth in what Cao Zhengdong said, and he didn't want to run from home to school every day, he gradually moved his mind to buy a house in the vegetable market, so he wrote to his wife Teresa Teng to hear her thoughts.

Teresa Teng replied that if she decides to buy a house, then buy it, and if the money is not enough, she will find a way to borrow it first, and when she comes back in the future, the two will pay it back together......

……

After more than a month, Cao Zhengdong finally found out that there was a small house to sell in the vegetable market, and the owner was going to move to Jiangcheng to live with his son, so he wanted to dispose of the house.

Niu Tiangou went to see it with Cao Zhengdong, the house is two-storey, in the vegetable market, the total area of the two floors is only more than 40 square meters, although the area is not large, but the asking price is 40,000, not a penny.

Niu Tiangou didn't have much money in his hands, so he hesitated again and again, and finally decided to try to borrow money from his parents at home. Unexpectedly, his family was quite supportive, and his parents, two younger brothers, and younger sister pooled enough money together to finally help him buy the house.

Finally has his own house in Xinxing Town, and no longer has to go back and forth from school to home, Niu Tiangou is like a boat drifting everywhere back to the harbor, and he actually has the feeling of returning to his roots.

So, he hurried back to the house, cleaned up his daily necessities, dragged out the big bookcase from under the bed, opened it and looked at it, in addition to the full box of books, the bottom of the leather clothes wrapped in plastic cloth were still there, and quickly brought them all to the vegetable market.
