Chapter 847: Legacy

With a strange expression, Alvin looked at the schedule of the community school for the next month that Nelson handed him.

Shaking the form in his hand at Nelson and Cage Sr., Alvin said amusedly, "Guys, the ACT exam is very important, but you definitely don't need to bring the 11th graders in, right?"

I think it's enough for a person to experience this nightmare once in their lifetime.

Isn't it a bit too miserable for the 11th graders to do that? ”

Old Cage waved his hand domineeringly and said, "I refer to the practice of our counterparts in China, in fact, our progress is far from catching up with those counterparts across the ocean.

They have been preparing for their entrance exams since Grade 11, and we are actually lagging behind them.

Six hours of sleep a day is definitely enough for those energetic children.

Alvin, we can't overdo it at all!

You must not have studied at a good university, otherwise you would know that college is definitely not a place to enjoy, and it will be more stressful than here.

There, every penny of your tuition has to be transformed into knowledge by yourself.

The rules of our school are very good, but we have to carve the habits into the bones of these children, and this is the last lesson we will teach them! ”

Alvin glared at the old Cage in annoyance, and shouted dissatisfiedly: "In the future, discriminating against the principal's academic qualifications will be condemned as a felony, is Columbia University great?" How much deposit do you have now? ”

Cage Sr. raised his eyebrows and glanced at the angry Alvin, spread his hands and said: "I don't have any deposits in the bank, but I have some high-quality stocks and real estate in my hands, worth about 10 million." ”

Alvin frowned and looked at old Cage, and said incredulously, "You embezzled the school's public funds?" Where did you get so much money from this old thing? ”

Cage Sr. was so excited by Alvin's words that he jumped up, he took out a club from Nelson's golf bag that he used to hold the faΓ§ade, and hit Alvin while shouting loudly: "Lao Tzu teaches in Columbia for a year, and his salary is more than 500,000 US dollars, you little bastard will pay 100,000 yuan if you tie Lao Tzu over, and you dare to say that I am corrupt?" ”

Alvin covered his head while dodging the attack of old Cage, and scolded unconvinced: "Then where did you get all that money?" 10 million! The wind is blowing? How many years does it take to work with an annual salary of 500,000? ”

Cage Sr. laughed at Alvin's annoyance, and he gasped for breath while leaning on the club, and laughed at Mr. Wilson: "How can this bastard be an American?

He is still measuring one's wealth against bank deposits. ”

Professor Wilson smiled and touched the gray beard on his chin, and said with a smile: "This is actually very good, his ability to resist risks is far beyond that of ordinary Americans."

Although inflation will shrink his wealth, we all know that his savings are liquid and the amount is indeed limited, which does not hurt him much. ”

Alvin was despised by the two old things joining forces, where did he not know what the problem was? It's just that he suddenly found that his workers seemed to be richer than himself, which made him a little unbalanced.

As a result, listening to Professor Wilson's meaning, it is estimated that he is also richer than himself......

Alvin walked to Professor Wilson's sofa in frustration and sat down with him, then put his arm around the old professor's shoulders, and said helplessly: "Why is teaching at a university so profitable now?" Don't tell me you're a multimillionaire too. ”

Professor Wilson smiled reservedly, then patted Alvin on the thigh and said earnestly: "Knowledge is wealth, and those who spread knowledge have wealth themselves."

I'm not as good as Cage Sr., he's a mathematician, and his specialty makes him a fish in water on Wall Street.

And I have some expensive hobbies that cost me all the money I saved when I was younger. ”

Nelson interjected a well-timed sentence and gave Alvin a heavy blow......

The vice-chancellor looked at Professor Wilson with an adoring expression and said, "The hundreds of oil paintings you have in your collection are treasures of the art world, and it is worth it no matter how much money you spend on them." ”

Alvin couldn't take it anymore, he glared at Nelson, the old slippery head, and said, "What about you? Surely you are not a poor person either. ”

Nelson smiled humbly and said, "I've been a principal here for 20 years, but I don't really have any bank balances.

But I bought a ranch in Montana, where I lived in retirement. ”

Alvin watched the three old men show their net worth as if they were each reporting their homes, which is equivalent to a heart-to-heart performance in a place like the United States.

However, Alvin was still stimulated, he put his arm around Professor Wilson's shoulder maliciously, and said, "Do you have a will or something, so many precious works of art have to find a good heir, what do you think of me?" ”

Professor Wilson looked at Alvin with a smile on his face, smiled and patted Alwin's arm on his shoulder, and said, "I have no children, and little Ginny was my hope, but I found that I was not able to protect her.

I had left my paintings to this school in my will, but in the past there were no conditions to preserve them.

Now, the basketball hall donated by Norman Osborne is about to be completed, and we plan to carve out an area underneath it that will be used as a museum for the school, and my paintings will have a place to go.

But if you like it, in addition to the oil paintings I have lent to several museums, you can pick some of them and hang them on the wall in your restaurant if you like. ”

Alvin was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly felt very moved, this old man had already put all his hard work and wealth in the community school, but he never knew it.

Professor Wilson looked at the expression on Alvin's face and said with a smile: "Don't worry too much about these, I leave my hobbies here, if they can make these hard-working children feel the charm of art in their limited leisure, then everything is worth it!" ”

Alvin smiled and stood up and bent down to Professor Wilson, then smiled and said, "You're right, it's all worth it, but I think you should watch those kids yourself, maybe one day a great artist will be born among them."

You've got time, I promise! ”

With that, Alvin turned and ran to Nelson's desk, pulled out a box of cigars from his drawer, which was not cheap at first glance, and handed one to both Cage Sr. and Professor Wilson in his distressed eyes.

Lighting a cigar and taking a puff, Alvin sighed comfortably and said to several old people, "It's good to have you......"
