Seeing Teacher Ma chatting animatedly with old friends whom he hadn't seen for many years, the leaders of Tang County couldn't help but feel nervous.
After a while, seeing that they showed no sign of stopping, a leader decided that this couldn't go on any longer, so he stepped forward and interrupted, "Teacher Ma, it's getting late, you should get down to business."
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere instantly became quiet.
Although Teacher Ma was somewhat dissatisfied, his face was still full of smiles.
He first talked about how the school leaders had been concerned about these transferred teachers for many years and how much effort they had put in to obtain approval documents to bring them back; then he talked about the difficulties the school was facing now and the urgent need for teachers; finally he recounted a series of policies the school leaders had formulated to eliminate their worries.
After hearing this, those teachers who had not planned to return to school were shaken.
Just as the leaders of Tang County thought, the main reason they didn't want to go back was that they were worried about suffering misfortune again.
If the policies set by the school leaders can be implemented now, it means that the entire school is tied to them. If something goes wrong, everyone will be doomed.
This is telling them through practical actions that what happened before will not happen again, which is more effective than ten thousand verbal promises.
A questioning voice rang out from the crowd, "Old Ma, can the policy you proposed really be implemented?"
Teacher Ma was delighted and responded decisively, "Yes, it is. When you return, those policies will be promulgated and implemented."
Seeing the increasingly struggling expressions on everyone's faces, he added another bombshell, "The school leaders also said that as long as you are willing to go back, they will find a way to get your family back to Wuhan."
When these people suffered misfortune, their families were also unable to escape. In order to save their lives, after they were sent down, their family members also submitted applications for relocation.
In line with the principle of not putting all your eggs in one basket, their family members scattered and moved to all over the world.
To be honest, they never thought they would see their family again in their lifetime.
But now, Teacher Ma’s words gave them hope and the possibility of reuniting with their families.
This became the last straw that broke the camel's back. Those who were originally hesitant immediately made up their minds to return to the school to work.
The leaders of Tang County were a little dumbfounded. They didn't expect that Teacher Ma had a trump card hidden.
They knew they couldn't keep anyone.
Sure enough, the next moment those empty-handed people all walked out, saying they wanted to go back and get their luggage.
The county leaders had no way to stop them, and could not stop them, so they could only go forward and say goodbye to the teachers.
After seeing this scene, Teacher Ma became more convinced of his guess.
He came to Li Mei who was saying goodbye to her teacher and asked in a low voice, "She didn't admit it was related to you before, do you admit it now?"
Li Mei chuckled and said, "I don't admit it."
Hearing this incoherent conversation, her university teacher Xue Weizhong seemed to understand something, so he said in a cold voice, "Teacher Ma, don't say things you shouldn't say, otherwise something bad will happen."
Faced with such a blatant threat, Teacher Ma not only didn't get angry, but instead said cheerfully, "I'm not stupid. I know what I can and can't say. Besides, she saved you, and I'm so happy I couldn't wait to hurt her."
Then he turned to look at Li Mei, "If you admit it, I will give you a favor on behalf of Wuda."
"What's the benefit?"
"A place in college."
Li Mei thought for a moment and asked, "If I don't admit it, you won't send it off?"
"Yes, but I will only give you two places. If you admit it, I will give you three."
Hearing this number, not to mention Li Mei, even Xue Weizhong couldn't believe it, "Teacher Ma, can you make such a big decision?"
Teacher Ma reached into the briefcase he was carrying and pulled out three envelopes. "I've brought the letters of introduction. Do you think I can make the decision?"
Xue Weizhong was a little confused, "Why are you here to pick someone up with this thing?"
"The school leaders said that you've been here for so many years and may have received a life-saving favor from someone. Such a great favor must be repaid, so they wrote a few letters of introduction for me to bring along."
Li Mei understood that these places were used to repay the teachers who were sent down to the countryside.
I have to say that this school leader is really thoughtful and can even think of such things.
Although Xue Weizhong was deeply moved, he said, "Teacher Ma, three places are not enough."
Teacher Ma's face darkened. "How much do you think is enough?"
"It depends on how much you bring."
After saying that, Xue Weizhong asked Li Mei to wait for a while and took Teacher Ma to find other teachers.
Soon Li Mei saw about ten people walking to the corner and talking.
Not long after, Xue Weizhong and the other returned. Teacher Ma pulled six envelopes from her bag and handed them to Li Mei. "Three of these places are for you, and the remaining three are for Tang County. I know this isn't enough to repay your kindness, but this is all I have. I hope you'll understand."
Li Mei was stunned and turned to look at Xue Weizhong.
Her expression seemed to say, Have you told him everything?
Xue Weizhong understood what she meant and explained, "If you don't tell him about it, he won't give up all the places he has. Besides, Teacher Ma knows that our coming to Tang County is related to you, so it doesn't hurt to let him know more."
Teacher Ma quickly made a promise, "Don't worry, I won't reveal a single word after I go back."
Of course, he didn't dare to reveal it. If he told anyone, he was sure that these teachers who had been sent down would tear him apart.
Li Mei pondered it for a moment and felt that what Xue Weizhong said made sense, so she stopped dwelling on it. She reached out to take the envelope, folded it, and put it in her pocket. "Teacher Ma, do these places have an expiration date?"
