Lao Tzu is a toad

Chapter 7

Zhao Jiadi drinks tea very quickly. It takes about 7 minutes to drink a cup of hot Tieguanyin tea. Generally, Biluochun or Longjing tea is even faster. He will brew a cup of Tieguanyin 5 times, no more than once, no less, and then change the tea leaves. , generally speaking, the work at hand can be finished after two or three more funs. Today, Zhao Jia only changed it once, because he has the habit of watching news broadcasts, and finally found related videos. This is the same as him. Read Like the "Economic Observer", it was a habit that Zhao Sanjin hard-wrought for him, and it became natural over time. When the end was coming to an end, he received a call from Li Feng, "Zhao Jiadi, you boy is too bold. If you dare not come to the meeting, the counselor just asked the temporary class cadres to roll your name, and you will probably be invited to the office for tea, so my condolences will change."

Zhao Jiadi frowned and didn't speak. After hanging up the phone, he got on his bicycle and went to the playground. He ran ten laps. The speed was not fast, but after the run, his face was not red and his heart was beating. It was almost 9 o'clock, and there were no people on the playground. Not many, most of them were couples walking, Qingqing and me. After the run, Zhao Jiadi received a call from Li Feng again. This time, Li Feng reported the battle situation nervously as if facing a big enemy, "I don't know what's going on, an uncle from the Academic Affairs Office of the college wants to The opposite side of the tree is typical, so I picked you out, our counselor wanted to protect you, but failed, and now that wretched monster is sending a young man to summon you to the office of the teaching building, brother, go all the way."

After writing down the office address reported to him by Li Feng, Zhao Jiadi rode his bicycle back to die generously.

The leader was sitting on a chair in the spacious office, holding a teacup, while the young counselor who had had lunch with him was standing, as if to say good things to Zhao Jiadi, Zhao Jiadi didn't bother to explain after he entered, Just waiting for the sentencing, he has always disliked his buddies who treat themselves too much and refuse to come down. The leader of the hospital in front of him is obviously in this category, and Zhao Jiadi is of course not strong enough to slap him Slap, Zhao Jiadi can still accept the behavior of the teacher who does not conform to the style of "the torch turns into ashes and tears start to dry" within the authority, for example, because a "fraternity" teacher suddenly discovered that a beautiful girl was intimate with a boy Acting like a baby, if you feel unhappy, you will vent your anger on the unlucky guy who hit the muzzle of the gun. If you are this poor guy, Zhao Jiadi doesn't mind being used as a punching bag. Seeing the pride of the handsome basketball guy and the screaming of the nympho outside the court, he would deliberately get blocked a few more times. At that time, Zhao Jiadi was happy watching those people desperately, and he was also very happy.

Zhao Jiadi has never been afraid to judge others with the greatest malice, because he is an optimistic pessimist, so as to avoid disappointment to the greatest extent.

Therefore, Zhao Jiadi received the criticism and education from the leaders of the front courtyard with an open mind and nodded frequently, but there was no guarantee that similar situations would not happen again in the future.Zhao Baliang is an exaggerated talkative guy when it comes to matters above the bottom line, but it does not mean that he is a good boy who can be squeezed by anyone. Which good boy will be like the sparrow said? A watermelon knife under the bed, or a whole sack?

"Zhao Jiadi, this is a good name, don't waste it." The leader of the middle-aged hospital leaned on the chair and said slowly. After training for a long time, he was also thirsty. He suddenly thought of something and muttered to himself, "Zhao Jiadi , why does it sound familiar."

There was a knock on the door, and then an old man with thinning hair walked in slowly, smiling, like the kind of unsatisfactory charlatan, but also the middle-aged person in charge of the admissions office who was very airy in front of Zhao Jiadi's counselor He also got up abruptly, put the teacup aside, panicked like a usurping monkey seeing the real king of the mountain, and quickly vacated his seat, trying to be as natural as possible but with a flattering smile in his bones: "Old principal, why are you free?" here?"

"Looking for someone." The old man who kept his eyes on Zhao Jiadi still had a smiling expression ready to abduct an ignorant little loli or take advantage of a good woman at any time.

"Are you looking for Xiao Huang? He is a leader in our school's youth talent echelon. He is a doctoral student at Zhejiang University. He is young and promising." , Immediately grandly launched Huang Zhiqiang, Zhao Jiadi's counselor, a young man who had just entered school.

Huang Zhiqiang, who has no background and no background, is also at a loss. He doesn't understand why the old principal, who is so indifferent to the dragon, comes to the office.

"No, I'm looking for this kid." With his hands behind his back, the old man nodded his chin to the even more inexplicable Zhao Jiadi.

Huang Zhiqiang had a headache. Could it be that Zhao Jiadi, who seemed obedient but a little ignorant of the world, caused a catastrophe, so that he alarmed the famous emperor of this school?In fact, Yangpu District has never been able to create a real university town, which has a lot of tricky aftertaste, which is not humane, but insiders know that the most common undergraduate college in Shanghai can only be ranked after the top 20, but there is an exception to enjoy. What does it mean to be a principal with deputy ministerial treatment.

"It's Zhao Jiadi, right? I heard that I took the duck egg test in English and got 570 points. You have a lot of courage. Do you feel wronged by coming to our school?" Ayutthaya is creepy.

"No." Zhao Jiadi said vigilantly.

Huang Zhiqiang and the middle-aged uncle who seemed to be a lot shorter had their facial muscles twitch violently, in disbelief.Especially the latter, who is in charge of part of the admissions work, had heard of such a great Bodhisattva coming to the school very early on, and even the entire admissions office suspected at the beginning that there was a problem with the score records, otherwise a math test could get a full score in the comprehensive science department. How could the college entrance examination machine that produced 296 points in the answer sheet make a fatal mistake of zero points in English? Even if a primary school student randomly chooses all the C's in the multiple-choice questions, he still gets [-] or [-] points.

"I passed 150 in the mathematics test easily. I heard that I was bored, so I used college calculus to analyze the two test questions in the blank space, which made the grading teachers speechless. The score of 296 in comprehensive science is 124 points, which is even higher than the number one in your province's college entrance examination." A little higher, [-] points for Chinese, which seems to be four or five points lower than your average score, for English, eat duck eggs as always, to be honest, if you come to a garbage school like mine, I will fight for you." The old man did not sit down , just walked to the window, looked at the brightly lit campus, and recruited Zhao Jiadi to his side, "But this school is garbage, and there are still one or two pillars and ghosts every year, so it seems that you come here It’s not wrong to hang around here for four years, I would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail, exactly the same as an old man like me when I was young.”

The old principal waved at the middle-level school leader and young counselor, signaling them to leave the office. The middle-aged man who was talking about his outlook on life and values ​​in front of Zhao Jiadi a few minutes ago immediately left the office and stood guard at the door for fear of any latecomers. Disturbing the old principal's scolding Fang Qiu for pointing Jiangshan.

When the two of them left the office, the old man immediately restrained his occasional outbursts of superior demeanor, regained his aura of a dirty old man, smiled and lowered his voice and said, "Actually, your father is an acquaintance with a student like me, and he also greeted me, saying that we must I'll take care of you, and I won't hide it from you. Your dad smashed half of the library for our school, so I will definitely keep an eye on you. If you still don't want to take English classes in the future, just don't go. The teacher accommodates."

"Principal, you are too upright." Zhao Jiadi thought for a long time before finally giving out the word "upright".

"Integrity is actually a kind of mellowness in disguise in many cases. The cost is low, but the income is not low. It's a trick that smart people know." It is false to say that this is the cradle of financiers, and I blush too, but the biggest advantage of getting old is that you have a thick skin, and no one can tell when you blush."

"It's very philosophical." Zhao Jiadi held back for a long time before he finally came up with such an evaluation, mainly because he didn't know the character of the old man around him, so he didn't want to be aimless.He is not strong enough to be able to make friends with an old fox who has only met for a few minutes. His capital, which may be considered as good among his peers, may be just a small splash in the long river in the eyes of an old man who has experienced many vicissitudes. Zhao Jiadi still has this bit of self-knowledge. Cities and counties across the country have their own top students in the college entrance examination, plus a large number of recommended students who directly bypass the single-plank bridge for the college entrance examination.

Maybe Zhao Sanjin didn't give Zhao Jiadi anything extra, but at least he gave him a height and a starting point that others could not reach, so that he had an extra wide field of vision, and let him change from a frog at the bottom of the well to a frog squatting on the mouth of the well. The toad made him believe in the iron law that those who blindly make a high profile will die sooner or later.

"Of course I'm not opening the door to you just because of the half of the library. I actually hope that you can still pick up the English course one day. After all, dealing with mainstream international finance requires a lot of professional English. , I am very optimistic about you, and I hope you can make the school proud of you." The old man said earnestly.

"I still know some English words." Zhao Jiadi said with shame, but he was obviously a little guilty.

"You are not in a hurry, and I am an old man, of course I am not in a hurry." The old principal smiled, and then the old man remained silent, as if caught in the reminiscence of the past, Zhao Jiadi also bid farewell knowingly, and the old principal returned to his senses in due course, He didn't forget to send Zhao Jiadi to the door of the office, which immediately made the two door gods outside the door look at Zhao Jiadi with admiration, especially the young counselor who had just turned from a student to a teacher. Zhao Jiadi's impression was not bad, and he guessed and knew to what extent he should turn a blind eye in the future.

Everyone is mixed in the world and the workplace, and they are all working hard to manage their personal connections and investment potential stocks. It is human nature and has nothing to do with elegance and vulgarity.

The old headmaster walked out of the office slowly, gave some instructions to his two subordinates, then hunched his body, always smiled and said nothing, and occasionally greeted warmly and in awe, just nodded slightly, without stopping at all Slow but firm steps.

What an old man who seems to have a low eyebrow and a pleasing eye, but is actually unpredictable.

Zhao Jiadi walked out of the office building, thinking that it would be better to try not to disturb this Maitreya Buddha in the future, but he had no intention of doing anything shocking since the first day he chose this university, at most he could guarantee a few things that had been planned in advance Under the premise that the serious business is not interrupted, he can talk about life and ideals with the beautiful sister and teacher. Zhao Jiadi is not crazy enough to hug left and right, or even operate three-line and four-line, so Zhao Baliang will be shy.
