"That's why I said I want to be promoted in an exceptional way."

Ran Hongjun explained patiently: "When appointing young cadres, we focus on ability, not qualifications. Besides, Binhai Lao Guo is eyeing the conditions we have given. You said we are not as good as others in terms of finance and economy.

But courage and determination can always lag behind! If we think about it over and over again, and wait until Lao Guo poachs people, we will really have no time to regret it."

Zou Qun thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, I'll do as you say."

…

In the evening, Hu Biyuan made an appointment to have dinner at home.

When Hu Pingtao and Su Xiaolin entered the house, the aroma of food from the kitchen filled the room.

My nephew Su Ruitao is in the first grade of junior high school. He is still round and strong, but he is not as cute as before as he grows older. Hu Pingtao called him in front of him and stretched out his hand to pull his nephew's chubby face.

This is his favorite game.

"Uncle, if you keep trying, you won't be able to change back." Faced with Hu Pingtao who surpassed him in height, weight, and fighting ability, the poor child could only beg for mercy.

Hu Pingtao let go as he was told, but turned around and handed his nephew to Su Xiaolin. He smiled maliciously and said, "Honey, come and try it. It feels very good."

Su Xiaolin pinched Su Ruitao's fat face and exclaimed in surprise: "It's really like this, soft and slippery, so fun."

The little fat man wanted to cry but had no tears. His face was full of despair, and he secretly vowed to lose weight.

Hu Pingtao walked into the kitchen and watched Hu Biyuan frying salmon in the pan: "Sister, is there anything you can do for me to help?"

Hu Biyuan glanced at him with disdain: "How can you still help me with your sloppy skills? It's already pretty good if you don't break the oil bottle."

Hu Pingtao said with a playful smile: "People can change!"

Only in front of his family can he truly let go.

"Go out and sit down!" Hu Biyuan pointed sideways at a plate of washed fruits placed on the kitchen counter: "Take this out and talk to your brother-in-law."

These words obviously had a deeper meaning. Hu Pingtao picked up the fruit plate and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong with brother-in-law?"

"Something happened to him and he has been unhappy these past few days." As she said that, Hu Biyuan's eyes suddenly lit up: "By the way, you are a police officer, maybe you can help him."

…

Su Zhicheng sat on a chair in the study room and looked at the computer.

He is an elegant middle-aged man who has always liked the matching pattern of a brown wool sweater vest and a white shirt. His light gray trousers are appropriately cut and his hair is meticulously combed.

Hu Pingtao walked in with a bowl and two washed apples, sat down on the sofa opposite him, shook the apples in his hand at Su Zhicheng, smiled and asked: "Brother-in-law, want one?"

Su Zhicheng is a person who pays attention to details. He glanced at the fruit knife in Hu Pingtao's hand and nodded: "Give me the knife."

He took the apple and the knife, dug out the eyes at the front and back ends of the fruit, cut it in the middle, dug out the core, handed half of the apple to Hu Pingtao, and opened his mouth to bite off the other half.

"Don't peel the apples. The peel is more nutritious than the flesh." He explained while eating.

Hu Pingtao took a bite of the apple: "I heard from my sister that you are in trouble?"

Su Zhicheng stopped chewing. These words touched his mind, and he suddenly lost his appetite. The apple he had just eaten two bites was placed next to the mouse, and he reluctantly swallowed the scattered pulp in his mouth.

"Biyuan asked you to come to me?" He was very smart, and he understood the reason for Hu Pingtao's question just after a moment's thought.

Hu Pingtao smiled and said: "You look like you are worried. It's all on your face. You can tell it at a glance. Do you still need to ask?"

On the one hand, it helps to excuse my sister, and on the other hand, it also comforts me.

Su Zhicheng raised his hand to adjust his glasses, picked up the cup on the coffee table, took a sip of tea, looked at Hu Pingtao sitting opposite, and couldn't help but smile: "Your sister... Haha, she thinks you are a policeman

, will solve the case, so I asked you to come to me."

Hu Pingtao was very surprised: "Brother-in-law, you are really clueless. Just by reasoning and judging, you can guess almost everything. If you ask me, why are you a university professor? Come directly to our public security system to work as a police officer.

alright."

Su Zhicheng waved his hand modestly: "That's different. We have specializations in the art industry. I can guess the conversation between you and Biyuan because I am familiar with you and she is my wife."

Hu Pingtao nodded repeatedly, this is indeed the key.

After finishing the apple in his hand in three mouthfuls, he asked seriously: "Brother-in-law, what happened to you?"

Su Zhicheng straightened out his thoughts and started talking.

"There is a difference in political identity between your sister and I. She is a member of the Communist Party of China, and I am a member of the Democratic Party, Jiusan Society. I am somewhat famous in the circle, and later on, after a friend introduced me, I joined the Municipal Federation of New Social Classes.

"

"There, I met many new friends. One of them is engaged in public welfare projects. His business is divided into two parts: on the one hand, he provides family-style poverty alleviation in prefectures and prefectures in Yunnan Province. For example, he provides free chickens and pigs to designated farmers.

Teach them how to breed them and then recycle them regularly."

"The other part is to provide financial support to schools in poor areas."

Hu Pingtao flexed his facial muscles and nodded slightly: "Sounds good. This kind of thing is free on the surface, but in fact it should be profitable."

"Yes, there is, but on the whole, it is beneficial to both parties." Su Zhicheng said: "I followed them to the prefectures several times and learned that the poverty alleviation projects for schools are actually long-term talent investments. That person is quite far-sighted.

, he will inspect all schools that provide financial support, regardless of primary school or middle school, focusing on the graduating classes. Pay more attention to those students with excellent grades and outstanding performance."

Hu Pingtao touched his chin and asked with interest: "This is obviously to cultivate talents. But what kind of talents are they specifically?"

"Teacher education." Su Zhicheng explained: "He has an education group. He recruits a large number of normal university graduates every year. The reason for doing this is to prepare for a rainy day. If the students who receive his funding choose normal universities, they must

Go work for his group. This is equivalent to a different kind of training program and orientation student."

Hu Pingtao asked: "What about the majors you studied in college?"

"Of course he will designate it." Su Zhicheng said with a smile: "The concept of new social class people was proposed by President Xi. In the past, I always thought that rich people were at best half-entrepreneurs. Later I realized that these people

Both logical thinking and political sensitivity are very keen. Last time in Nujiang Prefecture, I had dinner with him and had a few more drinks. I asked him why he chose this method to alleviate poverty instead of through the Red Cross or the warmth of the province.

Fund for charity?”

"He told me that on the one hand, he has no confidence in and is not interested in these so-called charity funds; on the other hand, it is because of his group strategy. If the family-based poverty alleviation project is run well, you can make some money.

No, the profit and loss can basically be even. In fact, he never thought about making money from this, he just wanted peace of mind. If it can help those who are hovering on the poverty line and get them out of poverty, that is also a good thing."

"The project he really focuses on is funding for poor students. This is related to national policies. A few years ago, the second child was liberalized, and recently the third child was liberalized, and even family planning was cancelled. Looking at it this way,

It’s only a matter of time before we fully liberalize childbearing.”

"When your sister gave birth to Xiaotao, I began to worry about the child's future schooling. Pingtao, you are still young, and this child is the future of the family! Even though your brother-in-law and I are a professor in the university, in my heart I still

A layman. Let’s talk about provincial cities, big and small.

There are hundreds of schools, but there are only a dozen or so with good education quality and good reputation. Moreover, children enter kindergarten at the age of three and primary school at the age of six. This stage is very important. So why do bad schools and kindergartens have bad reviews? This is the same as

The school’s philosophy of running a school is directly related to its teaching staff.”

"When Xiaotao was in elementary school, your sister's business was not so big, and I was not well-known in college. I asked many people to help me and spent a lot of money to finally send Xiaotao to school.

The primary school affiliated with the teacher, that is the absolute focus."

"My friend in the New Class Association has a long-term vision. The country has fully liberalized childbirth, and the education of children will definitely be an inevitable choice for countless families in the future. The nine-year compulsory education covers the entire country, but things like class have already

With the division of personal wealth levels, and now that education and training institutions are explicitly prohibited, if this trend continues, private schools will definitely occupy an important part of the overall education system."

Hu Pingtao smiled and said: "Brother-in-law, is your friend an educator?"

"He has opened private schools all over the country, and they are very large, so he has also invested a lot of money in student aid. Nowadays, normal school students basically have jobs after they graduate. With the increase in the number of new students, teachers are only valued as much as

It will be higher than it is now. As long as you sign a targeted training contract with him now, you are basically considered a member of his group. If you breach the contract, you will have to lose money."

Hu Pingtao sighed: "This man does have a vision and a lot of money. If there is not enough financial support, this kind of thing will be just words."

He looked at Su Zhicheng and asked curiously: "Brother-in-law, after talking for a long time, you still haven't told me what you are worried about."

Su Zhicheng smacked his lips and said with a wry smile: "That time in Nujiang, I bought a batch of books and sent them there. It was a very poor village. There was a school in the village, and the primary school and junior high school were combined. With the financial resources of the local government, it was basically impossible to

There is no way to build a school, so we completely rely on donations from public welfare projects.”

"I'm not talking about that friend, but a female student I met there. She was in the third grade of junior high school at the time. It was May, and she would be facing the high school entrance examination in a few months."

"The girl lost her father a long time ago, and her mother remarried to a man from the village. As you know, Pingtao, before the founding of the People's Republic of China, our country stayed in a semi-feudal and semi-colonial society for a long time, with deep-rooted ideas of favoring boys over girls. The girl's mother remarried

Later, when a boy was born, she was at home

She was completely neglected and gave all good things to her younger brother. Her stepfather’s concept of her was to “eat as much as she can to support herself”. The reason why she was not allowed to starve was because he thought she looked good and would marry her when she grew up.

Go out and collect the bride price to make money for her brother’s wedding.”

"If it weren't for national legal control, she wouldn't even be able to go to school."

"When I followed my friend to the village, her grades were very good, and she was also one of the targets of my friend's inspection. Because he donated the school, he knew all the students' scores. He asked me at that time if I was interested in doing it together.

Public welfare? It’s very simple. It means selecting a few students in the school who think they are good, paying tuition every semester and every month, and providing targeted funding.”

"I have always felt that doing things like charity depends on the person. Some people are poor, but there are reasons for being poor. Let's not talk about laziness. The money given to him for school may be used by him to buy food and clothes.

Just use it casually. Student performance is very important. Children who have endured hardships and know how to make progress will understand that it is hard to get support from others, and they will cherish it."

"That girl's grades in junior high school are really good! She got a perfect score of 150 in the main subject, and her average score was over 130. She passed 80 in physics, 92 in chemistry, and passed the line in music, biology, history, and sports, but she barely missed it in physical education...

...There is no other way, the place is poor, and her staple food all year round is potatoes, which makes her skinny and lacks nutrition."

"I agreed at that time and took some photos of the girl and showed them to your sister when I came back. But her family did not agree with her continuing to study. Her stepfather was very firm and wanted her to go to the south to work after graduating from junior high school.

To make money to support her younger brother. My friend argued hard and persuaded her stepfather to give in. After all, after we beat his adopted daughter, we don’t have to spend money to go to school."

"Although that girl was young, she was very good at talking. She knelt down and told me that she would call me godfather from now on. I was so excited at that time... How should I put it? The word "touched" is not enough to describe it.

I even want to take her to the provincial capital and live at home, which is equivalent to having an extra daughter."

Hu Pingtao couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Brother-in-law, did you discuss this with my sister?"

"I only told her after I came back." Su Zhicheng took a sip of tea and sighed: "Actually, I should have called your sister when I was in the village and asked her opinion before making a decision. After all, your sister

He is better than me in seeing people, and he has a unique vision."

"The matter has been decided and the money has been given out. After coming back, your sister complained about me and I should have vented my anger with her... But at that time, neither she nor I took it to heart. After all, it was a good deed, and

My friend is also very reliable, and the funding project is also supported by the local government."

"That girl writes to me every week and sends her transcripts by the way. In the high school entrance examination in June, she was admitted to the best local high school. Your sister and I were very happy, and we even bought a set of clothes, plus five

One hundred dollars, ask my friend to take it down with her."
