Rebirth: Starting from a Trainee Teacher

Chapter 103 The Second Small Goal
When he returned home in the evening, Zhou Jing calculated his current net worth.

The royalties in August were more than 50,000 yuan, and the stock income from September to October before the royalties was paid was about 20,000 yuan. The royalties in September were more than 170,000 yuan. Zhou Jing now has a total savings of nearly 270,000 yuan.

It was more than enough to buy a car, but Zhou Jing resisted the urge to buy one.

The right way is to make your wallet snowball quickly. After checking the stocks for a while, Zhou Jing went all in again.

Zhou Jing can make a profit on investments within one million, and the rate of return will not be too low. It is a foregone conclusion that Zhou Jing's net worth will exceed half a million by the end of this month. If nothing unexpected happens, he can achieve the first small goal by the end of November.

Zhou Jing had no novel manuscripts saved this past week and was busy with work, so he stayed up all night.

It was late at night and the only sound in the room was the clacking of the keyboard. Before he knew it, it was past five in the morning. Having written more than 60,000 words that night, Zhou Jing stretched out and went to bed contentedly.

During the short sleep, Zhou Jing had a sweet and exciting dream. He dreamed of Yang Wenwen and Gu Jia. He dreamed that he was having an embarrassing meeting with Yang Wenwen in an empty classroom. Gu Jia suddenly came in, and then Zhou Jing woke up.

"Yang Wenwen, Gu Jia."

Zhou Jing, who was not fully awake, stared at the ceiling in a daze.

This dream is a bit outrageous and more fascinating than the movie plot.

At ten o'clock in the morning, students practiced radio gymnastics. Zhou Jing got up at nine o'clock, took a shower, and went to school leisurely.

The students gathered in the playground on time. The first-year class also had morning exercises at 10 o'clock. At this time, many students gathered in the playground. The boys and girls in blue school uniforms were chasing and playing with each other in a youthful manner.

"Hello, Teacher Zhou."

"What time do you usually get up on weekends?"

Zhou Jing nodded and asked.

"About seven."

“You can sleep in a little longer on the weekends.”

"My mother won't let me!"

"As long as you have a regular schedule, six or seven hours of sleep a day is enough, going to bed at 11 and getting up at 6. But some students can't overcome the difficulty of getting up, and some students can't change the bad habit of not going to bed on time at night."

In his previous life, Zhou Jing also felt that high school was too hard and he couldn't get out of bed every morning. But after work, he no longer had difficulty getting up. He went to bed at twelve o'clock at night and woke up naturally at six or seven in the morning without an alarm clock. He lay down for a half-hour nap at noon and could maintain a good mental state throughout the afternoon and evening. After work, he could run on the treadmill to stimulate energy. The reason he could sleep so well in high school might be because he didn't have to worry about his current life and life was too comfortable.

"Is everyone here?"

Zhou Jing came to the location of Class 1 and 2 of Senior High School and said.

"We're all here."

Sports cadre Xue Yongyong has gathered.

"Then let's start practicing. Time is limited, so everyone should be careful. Xue Yongyong will be in charge of order, and Yu Haili will be the instructor."

After talking for a few words, Zhou Jing went to the side and watched.

The physical education officer asked all the students to spread out according to the radio gymnastics formation. Yu Haili tuned up the music on the speakers and asked them to do it once first and then practice one section at a time.

Zhou Jing asked the students to bring portable speakers, the kind that can use Nokia batteries.

The physical education teacher has already taught all the key points of a set of radio gymnastics movements. Except for physical education classes, it is not the physical education teacher's responsibility to practice at other times. The class can only organize the practice on its own, which tests the organizational ability and cohesion of a group. This is also the significance of the school organizing the radio gymnastics competition for the first year of high school.

"Do your best. If you fail to meet expectations, we will add extra time."

Zhou Jing watched the students practicing for a while, and when he had nothing to do, he took the basketballs brought by his classmates to the basketball court to play.

The competition is the students' own business. Zhou Jing cannot play on their behalf, nor does he care about the ranking. As a class teacher, he focuses entirely on participation, so for some things Zhou Jing appropriately adopts a hands-off approach.

The head teacher went to play basketball, which attracted the attention of the whole class. Only a few people in the class had seen Zhou Jing play basketball. Those who had not seen Zhou Jing play basketball were very curious. Could it be that the seemingly gentle head teacher could play basketball?

"Everyone, pay attention. The preparatory movements are not difficult, but it is important for everyone to move in unison."

"If you can't do it in unison, it will look messy. While stepping, step your feet to the beat, and raise your arms to the beat. One, two, three, four, raise your arms. When you say one, bring your arms 45 degrees, two to 2 degrees, three to 90 degrees, four to cross your hands, and then five, six, seven, eight to lower them to the beat. Everyone, watch me do it, one, two, three, four."

After Yu Haili explained the key points of the movements, she came to the front of the team, turned her back to the team, and performed the movements while shouting the beat.

The young men looked at the girl's back and made obscene comments. Yu Haili was not a great beauty. She was less than 1.6 meters tall and not slim, but her face was fair and tender and pretty. Her not-so-slim pear-shaped figure was very attractive. She was also very generous and generous, making her one of the most popular girls in the class. On the basketball court, Zhou Jing was alone, sometimes dribbling, sometimes shooting, and sometimes making layups. He was proficient in dribbling behind his back, dribbling between his legs, and making layups.

Playing ball alone is boring, but when the familiar melody rings in your mind, you can enjoy it alone.

Zhou Jing didn't like the memes on the Internet at first, thinking they were very vulgar. But after seeing more of them, he felt that there was a reason why those memes became popular and lasted forever. At least they could bring joy to people and make them forget their troubles. Ordinary people in this world live like beasts of burden. One should be happy every day and learn to appreciate things that are appreciated by both the elite and the masses.

"The old class is really a hidden talent!"

"You're such an expert at dribbling between the legs."

"When our homeroom teacher was in high school, he led our class to win first place in a basketball game!"

"Awesome! We don't know when the basketball game will be held."

The girls didn't understand basketball and the boys were stunned. But just by looking at the way Zhou Jing dribbled the ball behind his back and between his legs so smoothly, they could tell he was very good.

"Come early tomorrow to play basketball with the old class. Who wants to join us?"

"OK."

"Count me in."

All the boys in Class 1 and 2 who play basketball became interested.

The girls don’t understand basketball, but they find the head teacher even more charming.

"Mr. Zhou's skills are still as good as ever."

Cao Long, the head teacher of Class 1, Grade 1, still remembers Zhou Jing's style in the basketball game that year. At that time, the class he was in charge of was eliminated by Zhou Jing.

"It's not as good as it used to be. Teacher Cao, please come."

Zhou Jing hit the ball towards Cao Long.

Cao Long, affectionately called Cao Pangpang by his students, picked up the ball, patted it a few times on the spot, and then jogged to the basket for a 1234 layup.

Soon it was eleven o'clock, and the class was still practicing gymnastics. They did not dare to end without the head teacher's announcement.

"Do it together and let me see the effect."

At 11:10, Zhou Jing came to the front of the class and said.

"Everyone, do it seriously. If you don't do it well, you will have to spend extra time."

Yu Haili said as she adjusted the sound system.

All the students didn’t want to do extra practice, so they worked very hard.

It was almost done, so Zhou Jing announced that it was over for today.

"Mr. Zhou, can you come early tomorrow morning to play basketball with me?"

A boy invited the head teacher.

"Nine o'clock then!"

Zhou Jing agreed readily.

After getting the answer from the head teacher, the boys who were playing basketball became very excited. Some of them even ignored their meals and ran to the basketball court with their basketballs in their arms.

"Playing ball is more important than eating."

The girls shook their heads to show that it was hard to understand.

Zhou Jing could understand it, as he was like this when he was young.

Zhou Jing had an appointment with Gu Jia to watch a movie this afternoon, so he went to the school cafeteria to eat. It was still early, so he went back to continue writing his novel and try his best to exceed 200,000 yuan in royalties next month.

This year's goal is no longer a problem. Zhou Jing has set a small goal of five million for next year. As a unique reborn person with a million in funds, Zhou Jing thinks it is not difficult to make five million in a year.
