Chapter 519: I am the eldest sister in the family in the era 35
Risks and benefits are proportional, everyone understands this truth.
However, people who have experienced turbulent times would rather miss it than take risks.
Jiang Lan is not a reckless person, and she does not want the career she has carefully built to be destroyed by some messy people in the end.
There are many people who want to go to college, and she will not accept everyone. She must have made some choices. There are
too many people who pick up the bowl to eat, and put down the bowl to curse their mothers.
When they failed the exam, they called the teacher all the time, not to mention how polite they were.
Once they passed the exam, they turned their faces and even reported the teacher, calling it: eliminating harm for the people.
After the enrollment class was opened, many students came to sign up, and each of them was selected by Jiang Lan personally.
Why do you want to take the college entrance exam...
What if you fail after taking the tutoring...
Do you think the tuition is reasonable...
A series of questions, combined with Jiang Lan's mental power, successfully screened out some tricky customers.
"Sister, that student just now looked very good and honest, why don't you accept him?"
"This person is not a student, he doesn't know anything about basic knowledge, he just wants to take the class, anyway, we promised to refund the tuition if he fails."
There are many people like this, and they belong to the invalid customer group.
"Sister, actually tutoring is not an easy thing. There are many tricks involved."
"This is just the beginning. Don't be discouraged. It's always hard to make money."
Jiang Lan thought for a while and said encouragingly, "After this batch of students comes in, the money we earn will be enough to bring my parents here from the village."
Jiang Mo was full of confidence when she heard this.
After solving the problem of recruiting students, Jiang Lan started to prepare teaching plans and test papers.
Printing test papers for students is a very troublesome thing at present. The engraving is usually done by the teacher himself, and everything from engraving to printing is done by hand.
The teacher needs to engrave the content of the test paper on wax paper and then print it out page by page with a mimeograph machine.
A pen, a plate, a wax paper, and a mimeograph machine, these are the complete set of tools for making test papers.
It seems that the printer is indispensable. At present, there are not many students and it can be done manually.
If there are more students, Jiang Lan thinks that she will not have much time.
At the same time, other countries in the world have invented printers and even developed laser printers.
It’s just that due to the production cost and consumables, laser printers have not become mainstream. Now it is the inkjet printer that dominates the market.
Under normal circumstances, laser printers will gradually become the mainstream printing product only after the popularization of computers.
At present, many computers have been introduced into the country, but laser printing technology is still blank in China.
So Jiang Lan embarked on the road of invention again. After drawing the blueprints, she found her teacher and prepared to find an investor.
The teacher loves and hates this troublesome student.
Geniuses are always different from normal people, so just bear with it.
The teacher who was tortured by Jiang Lan has now learned to comfort himself, which is also a kind of progress.
But... I feel a little sad.
"Is this a laser printer? Did you design it yourself?"
"Yes, I plan to find an investor to help me produce it. Do you think it's feasible?"
Jiang Lan smiled ingratiatingly, "Teacher, you also know that I'm just a poor student and not very famous in the industry. This investor will definitely not give me face."
"And you expect me to charge and trap the enemy for you?" "
Then your network of contacts is much wider than mine, so I have no choice but to ask you to come forward."
"Okay, okay, you are a smart girl. I'll ask a few friends who are engaged in invention for you. I guess they have a way."
"Thank you for your hard work. I will give you a big red envelope when the time comes."
The other party rolled his eyes at Jiang Lan, "Just don't be angry with me. I dare not take a red envelope from a money-grubber like you."
[This is the normal situation in scientific research. There are not many people who can recognize heroes. ]
[Unless it is an invention that can change the world, or is particularly appreciated by a leader, ordinary inventions don't even have a chance to come out. ]
[If a researcher has an invention that can be mass-produced, he can make a living for the rest of his life. ]
Jiang Lan is also well aware of this, so many times, either there are blockbuster inventions and direct cooperation with the country.
Or she makes money on her own and supports her own scientific research results.
Now that she has connections and resources, she should not use them. If it doesn't work, she can find a way herself.
Jiang Lan feels like a veteran in the workplace now. In the past, she always wanted to stand out on her own and get things done single-handedly.
Now she has become more tactful. Tasks are tasks, life is life, and she doesn't want to make herself too tired.
If she can let others do something, she will be much more relaxed.
An old teacher is an old teacher. You can tell whether something is good or not as soon as he makes a move.
After Teacher Jiang Lan took action, several manufacturers contacted her soon.
Several manufacturers expressed their interest in the products she developed and wanted to discuss investment.
The manufacturers thought she was an academic who was ignorant of the world, but who knew that she was cunning and shrewd, and not easy to fool.
Sister Jiang has worked hard in so many dimensions and has acquired a lot of skills. She is no longer the "stupid" intellectual who only knows scientific research and academics.
Unless she is willing, no one can expect to benefit from her.
The laser printer incident brought Jiang Lan another huge income, and she suddenly had a lot more money on hand.
After she had enough money, she thought about buying a few more houses and then moving her family in.
When she called back to the village, Jiang's father and mother were very happy, but after much hesitation, they decided to stay in Shitou Village.
"Your grandpa and grandma are old. If we leave, we will see them less and less."
"You young people can go out and have fun, but your father and I are old. Besides, we have only known how to farm in our lives. City B is a good place, but we are unfamiliar with the place, so let's forget it."
Jiang Lan understood that the old generation was reluctant to leave their hometown, and did not force them.
Jiang Xuan and Jiang Min also faced the same choice. They were actually living well there.
If going to City B meant starting over, they were a little hesitant.
"Go ahead, go ahead. Big sister won't hurt us. What's there to be reluctant about?"
"Okay, let's go."
Jiang Xuan and Jiang Min made up their minds and got on the train to City B.
This trip is a challenge for them, and it will also change their fate.
After Jiang Xuan and Jiang Min came, the Jiang family sisters were finally together.
There is strength in numbers, and the burden on everyone is lighter.
Jiang Lan asked the two for their opinions, and finally Jiang Xuan stayed at home to help run the cram school.
Jiang Min found a store nearby and started doing what she is best at.
