Chapter 218 The Development of the Academy
"You're scaring me to death."
"Are you okay? You just got back, why don't you go and rest?"
Principal Abbott was talking non-stop with tears and snot. When he saw Xingxing running towards the python without looking back, he was so scared that his legs went weak.
Fortunately, those giant pythons were also foodies. Although he knew that Xingxing was fine, when he saw her safe and lively in front of him, Principal Abbott couldn't help but burst into tears.
An Xingwan handed over a piece of paper from time to time, and she felt very touched. She rarely felt such direct tension and worry from her elders.
"That's not enough, what's going on at the school gate?"
An Xingwan didn’t know if she had absorbed too much energy, which made her so excited. She really didn’t feel tired at all.
Thinking of the scene at the school gate, she asked with her head held high. Although it was during the holidays, it was not right for the gate to be always blocked.
Principal Abbott wiped away his tears, his expression becoming somewhat conflicted.
Almost all of those at the door are students who dropped out of Finnick and Lihui and transferred to other hospitals. These are only a part of them, and there are more applications online.
He was actually happy that there were many people in his academy, but because of An Xingwan's presence, the places were filled by her fans.
Even if we want to recruit students now, the lack of space and teaching staff is a big problem.
"What about expanding the space?" An Xingwan blinked, and Abbott sighed again. It's not like he hadn't thought about expanding.
However, if the school is to be expanded, all teaching materials and equipment must be fully prepared. There are only three months left before school reopens. It is impossible to complete the construction in such a short time, and I am afraid that suitable land cannot be purchased.
If he accepts these students now, wouldn't that be cheating them?
An Xingwan finally understood that the expansion was not a big problem. The most difficult part should be site selection, right?
The land in the city of Pula is extremely valuable. Walger must have spent a lot of money to buy this land and build the academy.
She is not short of money, but will there be a suitable place?
"Is there any existing college that can be acquired?" An Xingwan felt that this was the most convenient method. He could acquire the college, renovate it as a whole, and then hang up the Walger school emblem, and that would be it.
Abbott frowned slightly and whispered, "As for the acquisition, the principal of Hengrui has this idea and wants to merge the two colleges into one."
Heng Rui?
An Xingwan tapped her ears. Did she hear it right? Why was it Heng Rui?
"I thought it would be Tuze." An Xingwan was really surprised. Tuze was affiliated with Stolu Academy. This time, Stolu's actions clearly showed that he regarded Tuze as a pawn that could be discarded at any time.
At least Tuze should be the first to turn to the good, so why is it that Hengrui, which is doing well, proposed a merger?
Principal Abbott looked at An Xingwan in surprise, his experienced face full of confusion.
In his opinion, there was no way a college like Tuze would be willing to merge with other colleges.
"No matter what, we should make a public announcement first. We can't let them block the gate every day."
When An Xingwan said this, the Dean of the Combat Department of the Intermediate College knocked on the door.
The director with a Mediterranean hairstyle had shock in his eyes. If he heard correctly, that girl was ordering the principal around?
What's going on? Will he be silenced if he sees something like this? Is it too late to leave now? Will he be considered as trying to cover up his mistake?
Abbott hadn't expected much. Seeing him approach, he immediately waved and said, "That's perfect. Go and send those parents away. Tell them that Walger is planning to expand and merge. If there are vacancies, they will accept students in the order in which they applied."
The director nodded and wanted to run out as fast as the wind, but An Xingwan stopped him.
"Director, how many chefs are there in our canteen?"
She came today not only to assure Principal Abbott's safety, but mainly to speed up the training of the school chefs.
Now it seems that using chefs to attract students is not particularly meaningful, but it can improve the food in each college so that she will have to bring less food in the morning when she comes to school in the future.
"Not many, only about ten people. They all buy ready-made nutrient solutions and nutritious meals. I don't know how many of them can cook."
Walger is not an aristocratic college, and most of the students who come here are of average ability and family background.
Young masters like Kai are really rare.
Therefore, there is no high-end food in the college cafeteria, and the nutritious meals only need to be heated up by someone.
An Xingwan curled her lips. If they really wanted to set up a canteen, these chefs would not be enough.
"Please leave me the contact information of the cafeteria manager later." After An Xingwan said this to the director, he turned and looked at Principal Abbott.
"I plan to teach the academy's chef how to cook. In the future, the academy will not only be equipped with nutrient solution and nutrition, but also proper food. What do you think, Principal?"
An Xingwan felt that the empire was now very powerful and the surrounding planets did not dare to invade, so he should just enjoy life.
Upon hearing this, Principal Abbott stood up from his chair and said excitedly, "Xingxing, are you really going to teach the chefs at the academy how to cook? Really? That's great!"
Abbott has already decided that if Xingxing is really successful in teaching, he will have three meals a day, oh no, he will have to live in school from now on!
"Yes, let's take this opportunity to add some publicity to the academy. Maybe the new students next semester will be quite talented."
On the one hand, An Xingwan wanted to help Walger, but she actually had some selfish motives of her own.
She wanted to use the food industry to slowly eat away at Stulu College.
What Stollu is proud of is its excellent teaching quality, and all kinds of weapons and equipment are top-notch.
In addition, the principal has a strong background, so they can dominate the planet of Osay.
But in this exam, Stol's people made some tricks in secret and played word games to trick Walger and Heng Rui.
Even Finnick from his affiliated academy wanted to kill them and gave Tooze a hard time at a critical moment.
The principal's values are so distorted that they are like those of the next planet. No wonder his subordinates abandon their students immediately after the incident.
It would be unjust if such an academy were allowed to continue to dominate.
An Xingwan certainly wouldn't do anything like discrediting Stollu to praise her own academy and snatch students away. What she could do was to make Walger outstanding.
Of course, parents have to choose a good college. As long as Walger becomes excellent, parents will naturally know which college to choose over time.
"Xingxing, I'm so touched."
Principal Abbott was about to cry again. An Xingwan quickly handed the paper over and waved to the director who was sweating profusely in panic.
The director ran away feeling relieved. It was really horrible to see his principal crying at every turn.
"I've decided. I'm going to hand the academy over to you!"
Principal Abbott slammed the table, and An Xingwan was almost scared to fall under the table.
What? Giving her the academy? Is the principal kidding me?
"I'm old, and it's time for me to retire. And since there's no suitable successor, I think you'd be a good fit."
Principal Abbott spoke seriously. An Xingwan held onto the table and said, "Principal, how old are you? I think you're around fifty. Is that old?"
Because of genetic problems, interstellar people have a much longer lifespan, and the stronger they are, the slower they age.
Principal Abbott is about fifty years old and still strong, otherwise he would not have fought with other principals for no reason.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that this age is in the prime of life in the interstellar world. How could he actually say that he is too old and wants to retire?
If you want to make up a reason or excuse, at least make one that's decent, okay? This is too perfunctory.
