Start with a college teacher

Chapter 81

Let's put the peony essential oil first.

Essential oils are not used that way.

Teacher Shen and Li Rong were not talking about the same thing.

The topic of whether peony belongs to Caozhou or Luocheng has been in dispute for a long time, and it is no less than the sweet and salty dispute over tofu brain.

Du Dan is native to Qinling Mountains and has a long history of planting. It was planted in Chang'an during the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

During the period of Zhou Wu Zetian, she moved the capital to Los Angeles, because from time to time she would organize the civil and military ministers to watch the peony, so she was very popular and had the most widespread influence.

When people mentioned peony in later generations, they quickly thought of Luocheng, the ancient capital of thousands of years.

In particular, the famous Tang Dynasty poet Liu Yuxi wrote a famous peony poem:
"The peony demon in front of the court is incompetent.

Only the true national color of peony can move the capital when the flowers bloom. "

The capital here is Dongdu Luocheng.

The prosperity of Luocheng peony continued until the Northern Song Dynasty.

Later, due to the war, Luocheng was first under the rule of the Jin Kingdom and then occupied by the Mongols.

Especially in the last year of the Jin Dynasty, in 1232 AD, the Mongols conquered Luocheng and almost slaughtered the local people. Naturally, no one thought about planting peonies.

After Los Angeles, Tianpeng Peony rose.

After Tianpeng peony, Bozhou peony also flourished for a while.

Bozhou was lonely, and all the events belonged to Caozhou.

Since the Ming Dynasty, Caozhou began to grow peony, and it was the most prosperous in the Qing Dynasty.

Since Ming Chengzu Zhu Di established the capital, the country's political and economic center has moved northward.

The Beijing Roast Duck was brought from Jinling.

Dignitaries and nobles love peony, and because Caozhou and Rencheng have the convenience of passing the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal, it is most convenient to pay tribute to the capital, so peony flourishes in Caozhou.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, when the leader inspected Luocheng, he asked: "How is the planting of peonies now?"

The local accompanying leaders were a little embarrassed, "At this time, Peony is facing a desperate situation and is waiting to recover."

"The peony is the national flower of our country. It is graceful and magnificent, and it is a symbol of the prosperity and happiness of our Chinese nation. The peony in Los Angeles is the best in the world, and it must be rescued as soon as possible."

Therefore, Luocheng urgently purchased and introduced many peony varieties from Caozhou.

This also became the reason for the two places to criticize each other.

Luocheng said that we have a long history and many famous people. Caozhou said that your peonies were bought by me, forgetting your roots.

Midsummer is coming, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the summer in Beijing is not always cool.

But no matter how hot the weather was, it could not stop Lai Hongmei's enthusiasm for setting up a stall.

Although Shen Guanglin was eager to take revenge on Young Master Gao, he couldn't do the dirty thing of pulling the good people of Liang's family into the water.

The practice booth is also good.

With Shunzi taking care of her, all she gets is the tightest goods, so she just sells it herself.

In 1980, it was still an era when tickets were needed for shopping. Sunja and their items did not require tickets, so even if they were a little more expensive, they were still in short supply.

This little episode is over and life is back on track.

Shen Guanglin and Li Li's school life became orderly again.

This semester's classes are over, and Li Li reviews her homework every day at school.

If you want to study abroad, it is impossible without a good grade. The competition is especially understandable. There are only a few places in each school every year.

The relationship between the two has also become very stable.

After returning home in the evening, there was "supervision" by Miss Li Rong, and the two of them couldn't perform.

However, the sound insulation of the dormitory is not good, and the private conversation between the two of them can be heard next door.

Shen Guanglin only needed to make up for the high-pitched singing voice of Sister Zhao next door and the crying voice of the child.

Finally, the final exam is coming. After the exam, the college students can go home for vacation.

They are about to have a long but fun summer vacation.

Summer vacations are long and winter vacations are short.

Generally speaking, the summer vacation starts from the end of June to the beginning of July and will continue until the end of August.

The freshmen start school on September 9, and the old students are a week earlier. After all, they need to do some orientation work.

Li Li went home after the exam. She signed up for a summer camp jointly organized with the Wudaokou Technical School next door, which was specially organized by the state ministries and commissions to train international students.

As early as June 78, Taizong inspected the Wudaokou Technical School and put forward a slogan: "I agree with the increase in the number of international students... It is necessary to send thousands of students, not just ten or eight."

That is to say, since that year, the scale of the state-sponsored international students has become larger and larger.

The number of international students and visiting scholars going abroad is also increasing year by year.

However, due to economic status and national relations, the number of international students going to Citi and Fusang is the largest.

Citigroup has always established a scholarship system for international students, and it needs to attract outstanding international students from all over the world to serve it.

There are more people studying in Fusang because they are close to each other and their economy is developed; the second is because they have a special aid plan for China, also called ODA.

It has to be said that this plan has made a certain contribution to the economic development of our country.

Studying abroad is a topic that college students have to face and yearn for, especially those from top universities.

It is true that most people go out and never come back, but there are still many people who have returned from studying abroad and have made outstanding contributions to the country.

For example, last year, Mr. Zhong Nanshan went to Eagle Country to study medicine.

Going abroad is a good thing for everyone, but there are also unhappy places.

Recently, the comrades who followed Shen Guanglin to participate in the academic exchange group in Citiland have been a little troublesome.

The trouble mentioned here does not refer to the dismissal of Vice Principal Liu, that has already passed.

The trouble for the teachers is that the foreign affairs department is asking them for money, because part of their travel expenses need to be turned over.

This is a characteristic of the times.

Not to mention the accommodation and transportation expenses for the entire trip abroad, which are provided by Professor Charlie and the organizing committee.

The problem was the thousand dollars that the members could flexibly spend.

The main reason is that the country in this era is really too poor.

In 1976, the country's foreign exchange reserves added up to only 1 million US dollars.

When Emperor Taizong visited Citiland in 79, even the tip to the waiter was made up by the staff with great difficulty.

Now, it is reasonable for the Foreign Affairs Bureau to find them and tell them that they need to pay a little fee.

Moreover, not only them, but also ordinary international students studying abroad, as long as they have received scholarships from foreign institutions, they have to pay part of the fees to the Foreign Affairs Bureau.

In later generations, our northern neighbors, their people who go abroad will also turn in part of their income.

Shen Guanglin took the initiative to help Li Li pay 450 US dollars, and the two paid 900 yuan together. This money was "exchanged" from Kent, a foreigner friend at the embassy.

This Kent was an idler, outspoken, and not at all stingy.

The two quickly became acquainted, and Shen Guanglin also knew his position, he was a military attache.

As the commander of the military defense force of the embassy, ​​if there is no task of spying on intelligence, then the designation will be a pain in the ass.

Kent was indeed very idle, so he would come to find Shen Guanglin to hang out at every turn.

Now, the relationship between the two governments of Huaxia and Citi can be said to be gradually developing for the better. It is no longer a relationship of hostility and hatred, or even a bit of an alliance.

Therefore, Shen Guanglin and Kent's personal interactions are generally not listed as key observation objects.

The nature of Shen Guanglin's work is not classified, he is just an ordinary physics teacher.

"Shen, I heard that you went to our country some time ago, how is it, is it fun?"

The two were drinking, eating barbecue, and chatting.

Mr. Shen always has so many excellent steaks, which is one of the reasons why Kent likes to look for him.

"It's not fun, the itinerary is relatively fixed, and I haven't seen the Skyhook."

Skyhook means "skyhook," referring to the Lakers' leading star, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

In the 1980 NBA, Magic Johnson was still a rookie, and he would not emerge until the final game of the Finals.

Later, the NBA revised a rule because of Johnson that players and cheerleaders could not fall in love.

Otherwise, if one person is hit, everyone will suffer.

"I'm sad when you do this. You said before that you like the Rockets." Kent pretended to be sad and said.

"I am a foreigner, liking does not equal love, let alone worship."
