Chapter 453: Let Him Go
Contrary to Ouyang Ming and Xu Li's expectations, Zhou Yu did not get angry. Instead, he was a little surprised when Xu Li tremblingly said that the price of the shirt was 5 pence... no, the price of an apple was 5 yuan.
Selling so cheaply?
Because there were other customers in front of Ouyang Ming and Xu Li's stalls, in order not to delay the business of his two students, Zhou Yu signaled Ouyang Ming and Xu Li to continue serving the customers, which surprised Ouyang Ming and Xu Li for a while.
Won’t the head teacher scold us?
Isn't he mad at us for skipping school to sell stuff?!
When Zhou Yu signaled them to continue doing business, Ouyang Ming and Xu Li finally reacted and started collecting money and handing over things again, and continued to be busy.
Is Zhou Yusheng angry?
Zhou Yu must be a little angry!
What is the most important thing for students at this stage?
Some people may say something irrelevant, such as quality-oriented education, all-round development of morality, intelligence, physical fitness and aesthetics, but Zhou Yu wants to say that the most important thing for students is definitely learning!
Apart from studying, everything else is just details!
Especially in the most important stage of senior year, students should cherish every minute and every second and use the time they can squeeze out to study. How can someone dare to skip class during evening self-study and do such a sad thing...
Thinking of this, Zhou Yu suddenly paused.
Uh... come to think of it, apart from skipping evening self-study, it seems that Ouyang Ming and Xu Li didn't do anything out of the ordinary?
These two kids didn't go online to fight, didn't go out to drink and flirt with girls, and didn't team up to get health care. Since skipping classes wasn't for doing anything out of the ordinary, Zhou Yu didn't seem to be that angry? !
As a result, Zhou Yu's anger suddenly dissipated a lot.
After his lost sanity returned to his brain, Zhou Yu began to think about the problem.
First of all, the idea of selling so-called peace fruits in a crowded square was definitely not proposed by Xu Li, because according to Xu Li's economic situation and conditions, he could not afford to do such a thing.
According to Xu Li's family background, Xu Li's pocket money is probably enough to buy a cart of apples and give them away for free at the square. As for calling his classmates in the cold weather to come here in the freezing wind, is it just to sell peace apples for 5 yuan each?
What does Xu Li want?
Is he doing it for the fun of setting up a stall and selling things, or for the small amount of money he can earn?
If it was the former, Zhou Yu might believe it to some extent, but considering Xu Li's family background and conditions, it was hard for Zhou Yu to imagine that this was an idea he could come up with on his own. Let alone anything else, if Xu Li dared to mention to his parents that he skipped classes to set up a stall to sell things, Zhou Yu estimated that Xu Jiacheng would come to Ruxu overnight to break his legs if Xu Li dared to say it.
Therefore, if we remove the factor of Xu Li, it becomes self-evident who the real culprit of this incident is.
Zhou Yu looked at Ouyang Ming who was busy again. Maybe because he was worried about his class teacher who was nearby, he was so anxious that he started to offend. Then he thought about Ouyang Ming's situation. He was originally a little angry, but now he couldn't even show any anger.
Why......
Zhou Yu sighed deeply in his heart and decided not to pursue the issue of the two children anymore.
Of these two students, one is the class monitor, and the other is his eldest disciple whom he has tutored. Both are relatively easy to take care of children, one has pretty good grades, and the other also has pretty good grades, not to mention that these two children are students in his class!
If students in my class really make some minor mistakes that do not violate the principles, I will let them go if I can, and turn a blind eye if I can. But you make a fuss over a small problem. Do you think I am born to be murderous... born to be heartless? !
If the incident really gets out of hand and the child is punished, will he be able to go to college? !
Is there something seriously wrong with this non-pure brain? !
Is there something wrong with Zhou Yu's brain?
Obviously, Zhou Yu is a normal person with normal IQ and normal mind, so for this problem, Zhou Yu made a wise choice...
Well, let's just assume that he hasn't been here tonight and hasn't seen these two kids! Zhou Yu thought.
However, those who need education still need education!
At least to scare these two unfortunate kids!
If we don't scare them, what if they think the class teacher doesn't care about this and take the chance and dare to do it next time? !
You know, New Year's Day is coming in a few days. If Ouyang Ming comes up with some bad idea and wants to sell something on New Year's Day to earn some living expenses, then should I go to school or not? !
If it really didn't affect their studies, it would be fine to get some living expenses, but they wouldn't know how powerful they were. This time it was only Zhou Yu who caught them, what if it was some other teacher or school leader next time? !
If they saw it, would they spread it around the school? Would they report it to the school, causing this small problem to get out of control?!
neither knows!
Therefore, based on the principle of doing good for these two students, Zhou Yu must have this conversation!
Zhou Yu picked up one of the beautifully packaged boxes and examined it carefully. Then he opened the gift box. After finding that the apples inside were of good quality, Zhou Yu packed the apples back up and stood aside, waiting quietly.
When the customers around the stall paid and slowly left, leaving only the three of them, Zhou Yu looked at his two students with a bit of annoyance and amusement, "Whose idea was this?"
Although he already knew who was the mastermind and who was the accomplice between the two, Zhou Yu had already asked them a few questions just to confirm it with the two students in front of him.
After such a period of time, Xu Li's originally uneasy heart quickly calmed down.
Maybe it was because of the family's teachings, so Xu Li's mind has always been quick. When he found that the head teacher, Mr. Zhou, did not scold them angrily at the first time, Xu Li immediately understood in his heart that the head teacher would most likely let them off.
So when facing Zhou Yu's question, Xu Li smiled and moved closer to Zhou Yu with a playful grin. Seeing that Ouyang Ming wanted to speak, he pulled Ouyang Ming's arm and spoke first before him, wanting to help Ouyang Ming take the blame.
"Teacher, this is our idea! I've been short of pocket money recently, so I was looking for an opportunity to make some extra money! What a coincidence! I asked the monitor, and he thought the same thing! We hit it off, so I pulled the monitor aside and came up with an idea..."
It's much better for two people to take the blame together than for one person. At least if they really guess wrong and get punished, with two people together and him helping to take the blame, Brother Ming's punishment will be lighter, right?
Ouyang Ming didn't expect Xu Li to say that. Xu Li had accompanied him to enjoy the breeze for more than an hour tonight and helped him sell so many apples. He already felt very sorry for it. Now he was caught by the head teacher and was likely to be punished by the school. Ouyang Ming suddenly became anxious.
It’s fine if I’m the only one being punished, but I can’t drag my brothers into this!
Ouyang Ming was so anxious that he didn't wait for Xu Li to finish speaking, and rushed to say, "No, teacher, it's not what Xu Li said, this idea tonight was mine..."
Zhou Yu glared at Xu Li. Knowing what Xu Li was thinking, he did not expose the loophole in Xu Li's words, because if he stood at Xu Li's perspective, Zhou Yu might do the same.
Seeing Ouyang Ming trying to explain, Zhou Yu also agreed with Xu Li's idea. He didn't prepare to let Ouyang Ming finish his words. He took over the conversation and said, "You skipped classes on such a cold day to sell these peace apples here, and you sell them so cheaply! Others sell them for 10 or 20 yuan, but you sell them for 5 yuan each. How can you make a profit by selling them so cheaply?"
Seeing that Zhou Yu had started to tease them, Xu Li was immediately certain that the head teacher was really going to let them go!
As a result, Xu Li's expression became more relaxed, and he even tried to signal Ouyang Ming, who was still a little worried, to stay calm, as the head teacher had no intention of really punishing them.
Xu Li didn't know whether Ouyang Ming understood the signal from his eyes. After Zhou Yu finished speaking, Xu Li didn't bother to continue signaling Ouyang Ming. He quickly replied to Zhou Yu with a smile, "There is money to be made, boss! There is money to be made! Boss, you don't know, even if you sell it for 5 yuan each, the profit is still terrifying!"
"Fuck, no wonder so many people have to come out to do business in such a cold weather. They made a fortune in just one night! But, unfortunately, the money that can be made from this peace apple is only for one night. If it can last for two more days, then they can make even more money..."
Speaking of business, Xu Li seemed to have opened a chatterbox and immediately began to talk incessantly. When he got excited, Xu Li couldn't help but swear. He wanted to give Zhou Yu a detailed talk on this topic.
But when Xu Li realized that the person in front of him was the class teacher Zhou Yu, Xu Li quickly changed the subject and explained to Zhou Yu honestly, "Aren't you thinking that if you sell the land cheaper than others, you can sell the goods as soon as possible and go back to evening self-study?!"
After listening to Xu Li's explanation, Zhou Yu's expression became much better.
So after Xu Li finished explaining, Zhou Yu didn't say much. He just warned them and asked them to pay more attention to what students should do.
As for what students should do?
Isn't this nonsense? What else should students do besides studying?
Zhou Yu was looking at the two people the whole time he was talking, but when asking questions, Zhou Yu deliberately did not ask Ouyang Ming. Even if there were any questions that needed to be answered, Zhou Yu would try his best to find Xu Li. Only when Xu Li could not answer and he had no choice, did he look at Ouyang Ming to find out the situation.
After these words, the two people Zhou Yu mentioned lowered their heads and kept silent. They just kept smiling foolishly, trying to get away with it.
Zhou Yu looked at the two children and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"Okay, it's getting late, just clean up and go back! It's still in time for evening self-study!"
Zhou Yu glanced at the time and found that the first evening self-study class was already halfway through, so he hurriedly urged the two, "How many peace apples do you have left? If there aren't many, then don't sell them. If there are only a few left, it won't make any difference whether you sell them or not!"
After hearing Zhou Yu's words, Xu Li actually went to take a look inside the box.
After roughly counting them, Xu Li said to Zhou Yu, "Uh... there are 9... 10 left! There are only 10 peace apples left before they are sold out! Teacher, give us a little more time, we will soon..."
Xu Li wanted to ask Zhou Yu for a chance, but he didn't expect that he was pulled by Ouyang Ming and interrupted before he could finish his words.
Xu Li looked at Ouyang Ming in confusion, thinking, "Brother, what do you mean? I'm just trying to buy time, why don't you let me talk? What? What else do you have in mind?"
Ouyang Ming didn't look at Xu Li. He looked at Zhou Yu seriously and said to him, "Teacher Zhou, we won't sell it anymore! Now, let's pack up and go back!"
Having said that, Ouyang Mingzhen turned around and started packing his things, preparing to obey the instructions of his head teacher, Mr. Zhou, and go back to school immediately for evening self-study.
After complaining for a while, Xu Li didn't say anything else. He turned around and helped Ouyang Ming pack up his things.
Forget it, if it’s not sold out, then it’s not sold out!
There are only 10 that haven't been sold out. If it doesn't work out later, I'll find 10 more people to help Brother Ming buy them? !
Ouyang Ming was thinking, if 10 are not sold out, then so be it. I have made enough money. I will share the rest with my friends. They have helped me a lot.
The two of them were packing their things with their own thoughts, but they didn't expect to hear Zhou Yu's voice suddenly.
"Wait a moment!"
Ouyang Ming and Xu Li stopped what they were doing, turned around and looked at Zhou Yu behind them with puzzled eyes.
Zhou Yu sighed deeply...
This is the umpteenth time Zhou Yu has sighed tonight. These students don’t even know how to give him some comfort!
Zhou Yu walked over to the two of them, took out two hundred-dollar bills from his pocket, stuffed them into Ouyang Ming's hand, and said to him, "Consider the remaining apples as my purchases. This will save you from having to think about how to sell the remaining apples later!"
Ouyang Ming looked at the money in his hand in a daze, then he reacted and quickly pushed the money out.
