"Sigh, there's nothing I can do. A small place is a small place. It's indeed a bit difficult to maintain. Even though I didn't have high hopes at first, the environment is really unbearable to look at," said a bespectacled, quiet-looking young man.
"That's right, this is really the most low-class place I've ever been to. What's with all the decorations around here? It's all just gold and diamond carvings. There's nothing special about it. This is supposed to be the best hotel? I thought it was someone's toilet."
In their eyes, money is no longer a bonus, but a basic requirement.
Therefore, no matter how lavishly decorated the hotel was, it looked very shabby to them.
They pursue things that money can't buy, things that are unique and limited in quantity worldwide.
Only something like this would make them take notice.
However, in Jianghai City, only museums and cultural relics centers can probably satisfy their desires.
At this moment, the mayor, who was leading the way, also looked somewhat embarrassed.
Hearing what the young masters and ladies behind him said made him feel a little embarrassed.
He thought he was well-prepared and had even spent a lot of money, but he never expected to receive such a low evaluation. It sounded like he didn't even get a passing grade. He didn't expect these young masters and ladies to have such high standards.
At first, he thought they were just a bunch of young kids, easy to fool, but he didn't expect them to have such high standards. Once they got here, they looked down on everything.
But there was nothing he could do. Even though he was difficult to please, he had to put up with it. He had chosen this path, and he had to walk it to the end, even if he had to cry.
This is a system where doing well might result in a reward, but doing poorly will definitely lead to punishment.
If he doesn't serve these gentlemen well, he'll definitely lose his position, all those years of hard work will be for nothing, and he'll be kicked out as soon as he takes office.
"Oh, I'm sorry, esteemed guests, but after all, this is a remote and impoverished area, and it certainly can't compare to a big place like Hong Kong. This is already the best place we have here. If you're not satisfied, I can arrange for someone to make some more arrangements," Qian Daming said, sweating profusely.
At that moment, a girl shook her head.
"Alright, I see that no matter how you try to improve your small town, it will stay the same. Let's hurry up and take us to a place to sleep. I'm a little tired and want to rest."
"Oh right, what about our servants? You should have arranged them here, right? I usually have 100 servants with me at home."
Upon hearing this, Qian Daming quickly said.
"It's all arranged! I've prepared a super presidential suite for all of you distinguished guests in advance, and servants have already been arranged inside. If you are tired, I will take you there to rest."
"Wait a minute!" Just then, the boy wearing glasses suddenly said.
"Let's get down to business. After all, we didn't come to this godforsaken place for tourism. Where is our college entrance exam registration information?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Daming paused slightly, then said.
"No need, distinguished guests. You have come all this way, how could I, as the host, let you handle things personally? Leave this small matter to me. You just need to come directly during the college entrance examination."
At this moment, the boy shook his head.
"No, we want to go there ourselves and see how the students are doing."
"That's right, of course we'll go there ourselves, and while we're at it, we'll see if we know anyone we had a car accident with."
"Your Jianghai City also has some so-called prodigies, right?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Daming readily agreed.
"Yes, that's right. The most famous ones are the geniuses from Liuyun Pavilion, and the top-ranked genius in the recent talent competition. These people are among the top talents in Jianghai City. If nothing unexpected happens, they will also be taking the college entrance examination."
At that moment, a girl wearing a crystal necklace spoke with a soft laugh.
"A prodigy? Heh, now that I'm here, all the prodigies in this city must make way for me!"
"Hehe, these country folk can't compare to us, but what we should worry about is that other regions will come and steal our food. After all, in this day and age, there are too many wolves and not enough meat."
...
The next day.
Sunlight streamed into the room through the window.
Li Yang opened his eyes.
I have to say, waking up in my hometown feels different. I feel refreshed and sleep more soundly, and my sleep quality has improved.
It is unforgettable.
After getting out of bed and tidying up, Li Yang ate something simple at the restaurant downstairs in the hotel, and then headed to the registration point.
To ensure a place in the college entrance examination, all candidates should go to the designated location today to confirm their information and collect their examination number.
This location is a key high school in the center of Jianghai City.
Li Yang hasn't been to school for a long time, which makes people feel nostalgic.
Time really flies.
There is only one key high school in Jianghai City, and it is basically filled with children of the city's powerful and wealthy families. Ordinary children are not qualified to study there. The resources there are also unparalleled, so the tuition is relatively expensive, and ordinary students generally cannot afford it.
Before long, Li Yang arrived at the school gate.
At this time, the streets and alleys were very lively. One reason was that the college entrance examination was about to begin, and the other was that today was the registration day. In particular, a lot of people had gathered outside the school. Some were students who came on their own, and some were brought by their parents. In short, the area was bustling with traffic and people.
Seeing this scene, Li Yang couldn't help but sigh. Jianghai City truly embodies the characteristics of a small place: small in size but large in population. Everyone is desperate to develop outside the city and leave to enjoy better resources in a big city.
Therefore, the inner circle here is actually very serious as well.
Li Yang was also shocked; this was definitely the scene with the most people he had ever seen in his life.
All of them were students around his age.
this...
Li Yang even had some doubts in his heart about whether he could get things done today. With so many people, he wondered how long it would take to get things done in line.
Unless you have certain privileges that allow you to receive it first.
However, when in Rome, do as the Romans do.
Li Yang followed the crowd and entered the long queue, quickly gaining entry into Jianghai City's strongest high school.
Actually, this isn't Li Yang's first time here.
He had participated in various student competitions and exchanges when he was still in school, so sometimes he would be brought here by the school leaders to participate in the competitions.
