Finally, Hao Heng decided to contract for ten years at a time. Zhou wanted 10 mu and Hao Heng wanted 35 mu. Two hundred thousand yuan was about to be in his hands. Village chief Guan happily rode away on his motorcycle.
Zhou Xiang shook his head and laughed. This old man was riding a new motorcycle, but he still felt at a disadvantage.
The deal has been settled, and Village Chief Guan will go to Zhou's house to sign the contract tomorrow morning.
Hao Heng suggested taking a walk around the campus. He had seen it too hastily this morning. "Boss Zhou, can you accompany me for a more detailed tour?"
"Great! I haven't come here for a long time. The decoration is almost done now. The landscaping will have to wait until next spring."
A straight and wide avenue leads south from the north gate to the courtyard wall. Turning left is the school's main entrance, the east gate.
This road is marked as the Golden Avenue because Zhou Xiang plans to plant ginkgo trees on both sides of the road, which will turn golden in autumn.
It is still bare, but tree pits have been reserved, and park benches, trash cans and street lights have been installed.
On the east side of the road, from north to south, there is a six-story dormitory building with four bedrooms, followed by a green area and road about 20 meters apart. To the south of the green area is a four-story indoor sports and entertainment building.
There is a wire mesh between the three-story kindergarten teaching building to the south and the kindergarten. To the south of the kindergarten is a six-meter-high frame-structured hall with aluminum alloy doors and windows on all four walls.
We plan to put amusement facilities inside. Of course, the amusement facilities are still being made by Master Guan Tao! Wooden amusement facilities are safer.
This is the east side of the Golden Avenue. Let’s look at the west side of the Golden Avenue.
On the north side are four six-story buildings, from east to west they are a three-bedroom building, a two-bedroom building, a two-bedroom building and a dormitory building.
In front of the dormitory is a 20-meter green area and road. To the south are the commercial building and the high school teaching building. To the south of these two three-story buildings is a large playground.
To the west of the teaching building is the senior high school dormitory building. This dormitory is a one-bedroom suite that provides a quiet learning environment for senior high school students.
Then there is the dormitory building for the first and second year high school students, which is a double dormitory.
The two buildings are also three stories high. To the south are a stepped sports field and a small park. The small park has a fountain, rockery, and tree pits. The weeping willows have not been transplanted yet.
Zhou Xiang hadn't planted anything in the space yet, including the ginkgo tree. She wanted tall trees of similar height and thickness, so she could only use the space.
This large area is the dormitory building and the high school department, which is also separated by barbed wire to the south.
The south side of the barbed wire fence is divided into two halves, the west side is the junior high school section, and the east side is the elementary school section.
Let’s talk about the junior high school first. There is a playground with an 800-meter running track. To the east of the playground is a four-story commercial building, and to the south is a 20-meter green area and road.
Further south are two three-story teaching buildings and dormitory buildings. There is a large iron gate separating the road from the primary school on the east side.
The primary school section is similar to the middle school section, symmetrical on both sides. To the west is a four-story commercial building on the north side of the road and a dormitory building on the south side of the road. To the east is a playground on the north side of the road and a teaching building on the south side of the road.
All teaching buildings and dormitory buildings are enclosed in design, with a light well in the middle. The top of the well is not completely sealed, but only with a burglar-proof net, so that you won’t feel suffocated.
There is a one-meter-high guardrail on each floor’s patio, and anti-theft nets are used from the guardrail to the roof.
After entering the gate, the dormitory building is divided into two directions, left and right, to distinguish male and female dormitories. The partition in the middle is a brick wall. Each dormitory has a bathroom and can accommodate up to four people.
The teaching building is the simplest tube-shaped building, with restrooms designed at the four corners to ensure that students do not have to queue up to use the restroom during get out of class breaks.
High schools and junior high schools have one grade per level, and elementary schools have two grades per level. All classes are small, so there must be sufficient teachers.
After visiting all of them and listening to Zhou Xiang's introduction, Hao Heng was shocked. "How many teachers do you have here?"
"So I'm worried! Don't Hao Wei and the others see how big my campus is? There are only a few of them. I guess they can only take on one high school department.
If there are ten classes in each grade, and one teacher teaches two classes, then there will be 45 teachers for one grade, and 135 teachers for three grades. Junior high schools have six, seven, or eight main subjects, so there will also be more than a hundred teachers.
The primary school needs nearly 200 teachers, plus some additional teachers for secondary subjects, and then there are at least 500 to 600 teachers if we include kindergarten.
This is just the teachers, but I'm worried about the logistics, security, and teaching directors, and so on. My hair is almost turning gray with worry."
Hao Heng laughed heartily. "If you worry so much that your hair turns white, no one else can do anything."
Zhou Xiang rolled his eyes. "I'm not kidding. I have an acquaintance who can introduce me to this place. The salary here is quite good. You can live in a dormitory right after you arrive. After you pass the assessment, you can get at least a two-bedroom suite, and they'll also pay for your social security."
Hao Heng suppressed his smile and said, "Okay, let's do this! Leave it to my fifth brother. He knows a lot of people and has the contact information of your former students. Once your teacher Xiao Zhou calls, they will definitely come to support you."
Zhou Xiang was not polite. "Okay, I'll leave it to Hao Wei. However, don't force others. It's their own free will. If they have families, you can recruit some of their family members, and I can also recruit some for logistics."
Hao Heng pointed his finger at three places. "These three commercial buildings can accommodate five or six hundred teachers with their families. I can definitely accommodate them, especially the cafeteria. I'm planning to build an eight-story cafeteria similar to your food court! I'll hire two people per stall, plus the logistics, and it'll be easy."
"Well! We'll see when the time comes! Having reasonable jobs to arrange for family members is also a benefit."
While there was hope for the teaching staff, Zhou Xiang was worried about the student source, which was the most difficult to control. Speaking of having many classes, in fact, each class only had about 20 students. One grade enrolled 200 students, and there were more than 2,000 students in 12 grades. She was not very confident, after all, this was just a town!
It was getting dark outside, and the four of them drove back to Zhou's house. Hao Heng naturally stayed there shamelessly.
When he met Professor Chu, he complained to him that Zhou wanted to raise the rent.
Zhou Xiang ignored him and said, "They haven't discussed the rent yet, okay?"
Professor Chu chuckled, "I don't care about her affairs, but Zhou Xiang, I want to go to school to teach, you can take care of the arrangements."
Before Zhou Xiang could say anything, Hao Heng stood up in surprise. "Professor Chu, if you, you go and teach, what else does Zhou Xiang have to worry about? Once you're a living signboard, all the teachers and students will be eager to come here."
Professor Chu smiled and said, "Then go back and promote the school. You've seen what the school looks like. It's not worse than the schools in Beijing, right?"
Hao Heng sat down and said, "How can it be good? It's simply excellent. The classrooms and dormitories are first-class."
Zhou Xiang's eyes became moist, "Teacher..."
Professor Chu patted the student's shoulder and said, "Don't be too touched. I came here after retirement not only to enjoy family happiness, but also because of your new school. The pressure here is less. While I can contribute my remaining energy, I have so many family members around me. My heart is so full."
"Thank you, teacher."
Zhou Xiang stammered and could only utter these four words.
