After a long while, the middle-aged man came to the window tremblingly, turned the half-read "The Yang Family Generals" upside down on the table, picked up Xu Jianguo's ID and began to read it.
When the words "Guard Bureau", "Special Service" and "Colonel" appeared in front of him in the certificate, the middle-aged man suddenly felt a black screen in front of his eyes. He hurriedly held the table, then shuddered, and then a smile of "I am an honest man" appeared on his face.
Xu Jianguo looked at the smile on his face and felt contempt in his heart, thinking that it was a pity that this guy didn't go to Bashu to learn face changing.
What was even more unexpected was that just when he was about to speak, the "seemingly honest" middle-aged man turned around, pushed open the small door at the gate and walked out, then without saying a word to Xu Jianguo, he directly opened the door.
He even pushed aside several students who were entering and exiting through the small door on the main gate.
After the gate was fully opened, the middle-aged man smiled awkwardly at Xu Jianguo and said, "Well... well, Commander, please come in. Walk north along this road, turn left at the end onto Wusi Road, and then park at the intersection of Wusi Road and Kexue Road. You'll arrive."
Xu Jianguo was left in a state of confusion by the series of outrageous actions of the middle-aged man, and the little bit of resentment in his heart disappeared. He did not intend to continue to embarrass him, but nodded at him, reached out to take back his ID, gun and Daya's identification documents through the small window, and turned to get into the jeep.
Looking at the jeep's receding silhouette, the middle-aged man exhaled heavily, raised his arm to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, and thought to himself that he must remember this better next time.
The family didn't care about this little episode. Since entering the campus, Xu Jianguo deliberately slowed down the car. Daya, who was sitting in the back seat, stared out the window without blinking, with a look of deep longing in her eyes, exactly the same as when she first visited Hangzhou University.
Erya and Funiu were also looking at the scenery outside with curiosity, while Wenwen and Lele, although not as curious as their aunts, were also shaking their little heads to look left and right.
A moment later, the jeep stopped at the intersection of Wusi Road and Kexue Road. The library of Jingzhou University is located here.
The entire library building looks very old, with some vines on the exterior walls, adding a sense of heaviness to the library.
Due to a slight change in the wind direction outside, the Jingzhou University campus still looked very peaceful at this time. It was not like what he had seen in the newspapers in his previous life, where people wearing red armbands could be seen on campus from time to time.
This shows that the central government has fully realized the problem and has begun to focus on the right place. If a country wants to move from poverty and backwardness to prosperity and strength, it can never do without talents and technology. Where do these two come from? Without a doubt, universities.
Therefore, if the "storm" is allowed to continue to blow recklessly, regardless of whether the poison can be cured, it will first affect the country's development in the next few decades.
As the saying goes, one wrong step leads to another. After the two turbulent periods of the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, the country was already seriously damaged. If it happened again, it would be hard to say when Longxia, which was already lagging behind the West, would be able to catch up.
In his previous life, the clever Longxia people caught up with Ou Mei's hundreds of years of efforts in just a few decades. If he could start early and catch up in this life, Xu Jianguo felt that he might really see the day when the Western powers bowed their heads in his lifetime.
After standing on the street outside the library and watching for a while, Xu Jianguo led his family inside.
At this time, there were already many people reading and studying in the library. Before entering, Wen Sitian had already instructed the two little ones, Wenwen and Lele, so they did not make loud noises, but followed their mother very obediently.
Xu Jianguo found the administrator on duty at the open service desk. After explaining his purpose, the family was taken to the director's office.
The director of the Jingzhou University Library is an old man who looks to be in his sixties and is in good spirits. His name is Zhuang Yiming.
In addition to being the director of the library, he also serves as the vice president of Jingzhou University.
After Xu Jianguo took out his ID and Daya's certification documents, he explained the purpose of his visit. After listening, the old man warmly received them and asked about some basic information about Daya.
Although I am working in the library, as the director, I still need to understand it clearly.
When he heard that Daya was currently self-studying high school courses, the old man showed an admiring smile on his face, and he also gave high praise to the brother and sister-in-law Xu Jianguo and Wen Sitian.
After all, there are few parents these days who support their children to continue their studies like they do. When most people reach a certain age, they either follow in their father's footsteps or respond to the country's call to go to the countryside.
Both Xu Jianguo and his wife, as well as Daya, seemed very calm about Zhuang Yiming's praise, which aroused the old man's interest even more.
When he received the call from Chen Jin, he actually wanted to refuse. Later, when he heard that he only needed to hold a temporary position without salary or benefits, he agreed.
He also asked about the relationship between Daya and Mr. Zhou, and the answer he got was that Daya's brother had made outstanding contributions to the country. He had been awarded the honorary title of Model Cadre of Strengthening the Army with Science and Technology and the Second Class Merit Medal by Mr. Xiao and Mr. Da. He also won the First Class Merit Medal and was a true meritorious official.
After hearing this, Zhuang Yiming basically knew the situation of the family of the person who was going to work here. He asked himself honestly that he really couldn't refuse.
Until today, after he met with Xu Jianguo's family and learned the whole story, the slight dissatisfaction in his heart about Daya getting a job at the library through backdoors completely disappeared. Instead, he admired this family's respect for knowledge from the bottom of his heart.
After chatting for a while, Zhuang Yiming stood up and prepared to take Daya to handle the procedures personally. He also wanted to introduce her to other people as soon as possible.
Daya looked at Xu Jianguo and Wen Sitian, and after getting their nods of agreement, she followed Zhuang Yiming away.
