Chapter 111 Chapter 111 Being Targeted
The students watched Xu Yunfan's entire problem-solving process flow smoothly, and it seemed very simple.
But they don’t know how to do it this way, and they can’t understand it at all!
After finishing the problem, Xu Yunfan tapped the tip of his chalk again. "You may not understand my approach, but you saw that I was using this algorithm in my mind to solve your problem. Look how smoothly I wrote it, flowing like water, and fluently. If you learn this algorithm, I will be you tomorrow. As long as you follow my example, problems like this will be child's play for you in the future. It's a piece of cake."
Students: “…”
Their little teacher always speaks better than he sings.
However, Xu Yunfan calculated so quickly just now, maybe because he used this algorithm.
What's more, he is their teacher now. As students, they must listen to how he teaches and respect their teachers!
Moreover, they could see that Xu Yunfan put his heart into teaching. Otherwise, where would the blackboard come from? Where would the blackboard stand come from?
I think these things were specially prepared by him for teaching.
Since Xu Yunfan has prepared so carefully, why can't they give it a try?
The dean knew that Xu Yunfan was from overseas, but he still invited him. Maybe he wanted to develop another teaching method.
"Master Xu, you teach us and we will learn from you." Lin Zifei said.
With one person taking the lead, the other students stopped thinking silently. Since Xu Yunfan was the teacher, what was wrong for students to listen to his teachings?
"Yes, as students, we naturally have to obey the teacher's teachings."
Xu Yunfan nodded with satisfaction and began teaching.
He felt that this job was simply too easy. To put it bluntly, he was now a first-grade teacher in an elementary school, and the students were still six or seven-year-old little kids who couldn't sit still and loved to play and make noises.
Among the students in front of him, some are older than him, some are about the same age as him, or one or two years younger, but without exception they are all grown-up children. To lead such grown-up children and teach them the simple first-grade teaching content that requires almost no brainpower for Xu Yunfan, Xu Yunfan is confident that even if he teaches with his eyes closed, he can make these students get full marks in the subject of arithmetic under his education.
In Qingfeng College, no, not only Qingfeng College, but other colleges as well, according to different levels of the imperial examination, there are four major classes, A, B, C, and D. In fact, there are four levels, and the teaching content of each level is different. For example, the content taught by the teachers of classes A and B is different from that of classes C and D. Compared with the content of classes C and D, it will be more difficult. It is the knowledge specially taught for them to pass the examination for scholars, so the difficulty is naturally higher.
Therefore, the arithmetic that Classes C and D are currently exposed to is actually relatively simple. You have to know that what they are currently learning and exposed to are integers, and they have not yet learned fractions, decimal points, etc.
Xu Yunfan knew that he was teaching Class C. Once one of them passed the examination for Tongsheng, or had already passed the examination and achieved good results in future exams, they would have the hope of leaving Class C.
The camp remains permanent, but the soldiers are transient. Even though they have left Class C, he is still the teacher of Class C. It is not like modern schools where students move from the first grade to the second grade, but the teachers remain the same.
Xu Yunfan was new and had no status, so his treatment was naturally different from that of other teachers.
He wanted to leave Class C to teach Classes A and B. Unless the dean asked, he would have to stay in charge of Class C-6.
Xu Yunfan didn't think too much about it. No matter whether he was teaching Class C or Class A, no matter whether the students were students or scholars, they were all his students. As a teacher, he should do his job conscientiously and have a clear conscience.
The first step is to teach students what Arabic numerals are. Numbers are the basis of mathematics learning, so knowing numbers, reading numbers, and writing numbers are the first and most important tasks.
The Arabic numerals taught by Xu Yunfan seem very simple. Not only are they easy to write, but they are also very easy to remember. Xu Yunfan only needs to write one side and teach them to read it twice, and the students will remember it.
"After ten comes eleven, and after eleven comes twelve. Remember, after two comes three, and so on to nine... and the same thing continues after twenty. Let's look at one hundred, ninety-nine, and nine. These three numbers, one hundred, and one, have two zeros after them, so that's three numbers in total, right?"
Xu Yunfan spent the entire class teaching Arabic numerals from one to one thousand, digits, and vertical calculations. After that, Xu Yunfan bent his index finger and tapped the steps he had just written with the back of his finger. "After my teaching, do you understand the steps now?"
"I understand." Ye Chen's students were extremely excited. Through Xu Yunfan's teaching, the arithmetic problems that were complicated and eye-watering for them before suddenly became simple. Those complicated problems were nothing more than vertical calculations of addition and subtraction, which they could solve in an instant. It was really too easy.
Teacher Jiang Lanfang and others outside were greatly shocked. At first, when Xu Yunfan talked about Arabic numerals, Jiang Lanfang thought that things from overseas might not be applicable. After all, they were already used to it. Maybe the Arabic numerals taught by Xu Yunfan were even more complicated and difficult to learn than what they were learning now.
But, is it difficult to learn? Complex?
That doesn't exist at all. On the contrary, the so-called Arabic numerals are even very easy to remember. The vertical calculation taught by Xu Yunfan is also very easy to use. You can solve a problem in a short time.
Is this overseas knowledge?
No wonder Xu Yunfan is so good at arithmetic.
During the two classes, Xu Yunfan chatted for a while, and there was a ten-minute break between classes. Xu Yunfan spent half of the remaining time teaching, and in the remaining half of the time, Xu Yunfan explained the questions that the students could not solve or solved incorrectly.
In the last two minutes, Xu Yunfan frequently looked at his watch. When the time was up, the students had not yet reacted. Some of them wanted to ask questions, but when they looked up, they found that Xu Yunfan was no longer in the classroom.
"Is Master Xu in a hurry? Or does he have a stomachache? Where is he?"
"I don't know. I saw him running out of the classroom just now. He seemed very anxious." He looked like he was about to shit in his pants.
The students had no idea that Xu Yunfan was afraid that they would ask him questions in the last two minutes!
It’s like when it’s almost time to get off work and the boss suddenly wants to hold a meeting, and no one is happy about it.
When the students ran to the cafeteria, Xu Yunfan was already sitting with his legs crossed at the money changer, leisurely eating a red bean popsicle.
Because he ran so fast, Xu Yunfan even forgot to put away the blackboard. After scanning the students queuing at several windows, he found Ye Chen.
Xu Yunfan patted Ye Chen on the shoulder and asked him to go back and take the blackboard back to their dormitory and bring it to the classroom when his class started tomorrow.
As for being selfless and willing to share the blackboard chalk for other teachers to use, Xu Yunfan had never thought about this issue.
Today he went to a classroom reserved for teachers. Adhering to his status as a junior, Xu Yunfan greeted several teachers. As a result, they just glanced at him lightly, snorted coldly, and ignored him, being very aloof.
Some people even spoke out against him.
"Tsk tsk, some people are different because they have connections and people protecting them. Before they even came in, Master Pei even lost his position as vice president. You guys better be careful and don't offend certain people." Pei Feng said sarcastically and meaningfully.
"Yes, I don't know what the dean was thinking. He actually arranged him into Class C6. He must not hold us back when the time comes." The man spoke with a tone full of resentment. It was obvious that he was extremely dissatisfied with Xu Yunfan's arrival and the dean's arrangement.
Who was the dean? Would he dare to complain to him or be sarcastic to him?
Xu Yunfan was different. What if he said a few words? Even if Xu Yunfan had someone protecting him, could he still hit him?
A gentleman uses words, not fists. If Xu Yunfan dared to attack him, he would definitely be in the wrong.
Xu Yunfan is not stupid, how could he not know that this person is targeting him.
He knew Pei Feng, who was also a teacher of Class C6. Qi Xiu Ze and the others had been worried that Xu Yunfan would be targeted, so they had specially introduced a few teachers to him.
Among them, Pei Feng is one of them. He is a relative of the vice-president. The vice-president was demoted. For him, his backers no longer have that much power. In the future, he will not be able to be as free and easy as before in Qingfeng Academy.
Some teachers knew about Pei Feng's relationship with the vice-president and had tried to curry favor with him and become friends with him. Although the vice-president had been demoted, he was still a teacher teaching Class A and might have a bright future.
Therefore, several teachers who were on good terms with Pei Feng had to agree and made some sarcastic remarks to Xu Yunfan.
The teaching here is not one teacher for each subject. Some teachers have to teach both policies and policy theories. In short, they are "all-round" talents.
Xu Yunfan didn't know how omnipotent these teachers were, but just from the fact that the teacher of Class C6 was a scholar, he knew that they were not that omnipotent.
So, is he the one holding us back or are they?
Xu Yunfan knew that the glances these people gave him just now seemed to show that they looked down on him, and now they were saying such sarcastic words. Xu Yunfan was so angry!
Because class time was about to end, he couldn't lose his temper, but he was petty and held a grudge.
In the past, if Xu Yunfan had a grudge, he would have taken revenge on the spot. But today, he is a teacher after all, and it is important for him to teach his students first. After all, a gentleman's revenge is never too late, so these people are waiting for him.
He wouldn't let them use his blackboard even if it was in good condition.
In life, if you are generous when you should be stingy, people will not be grateful to you, but will only think you are stupid.
Ye Chen didn't ask any more questions. Xu Yunfan was his teacher, so he would just do whatever he was told to do.
After instructing Ye Chen, Xu Yunfan felt relieved.
"Yunfan, come here, come here quickly!" Seeing Xu Yunfan doing nothing, Qi Xiu Ze waved to him and signaled him to come over.
There's no way, they are very busy and can't leave easily.
"What for?" Seeing that no one came to change the money, Xu Yunfan leaned against the counter, one hand on the counter, and his left hand was still holding a glass of iced lemonade that he asked Qin Run to make for him to quench his thirst.
Qi Xiu Ze walked over with a grin, "Yun Fan, how did you make that blackboard today? Are you interested in collaborating with us, the Royal Merchants?"
The reason why Qi Xiu Ze brought this up was that he felt that once the blackboard was promoted, it would definitely be welcomed by the teachers, but how many teachers did Xu Yunfan know in Qinghe Town?
If he wanted to sell the blackboard, first of all, the transportation would cost a lot of money and time. If he wanted to make a profit, the price of the blackboard would have to be raised.
The price of blackboards has increased, and the problem that follows is that the price of blackboards is too high. Perhaps the teachers working in academies would be willing to spend a lot of money to buy one, but not all teachers in colleges have that kind of money, and not all teachers in private schools are willing to spend that money.
But if the blackboard is handed over to the Royal Merchant to sell, firstly, Xu Yunfan will not have to spend extra expenses. The Royal Merchant has its own transportation team for the transportation of goods. Usually, there are only a few people responsible for transporting goods, so if more goods are transported, they can take care of it.
Therefore, if the blackboard is handed over to the Royal Merchants, with their scale, even if the price of the blackboard is to rise after they purchase it from Xu Yunfan, it will not rise too much, and at most they will just make some hard-earned money.
Xu Yunfan never thought about selling the blackboard, but if there was an opportunity, who wouldn’t want to earn more?
"I have to see how much goods I can produce first. Once the candle issue is settled, we can sign a contract and we will be partners in the future. If there are other good things that are not convenient for me to sell in my own store, I will give them to you royal merchants." Xu Yunfan thought that before he had an identity that could intimidate others, his store probably would not be able to sell too many things. Cooperating with the royal merchants was a good choice.
Qi Xiu Ze chuckled, "I've already sent a letter back to the capital at full speed, eight hundred miles."
"Don't try to bluff me." Xu Yunfan rolled his eyes at Qi Xiu Ze. "Do you think I don't know what 800-mile express delivery is?"
In ancient times, "800-li express" meant that in an emergency, official documents and goods were required to be transported at least 800 kilometers per day.
"The post riders passed by one post station after another like flowing stars." This shows how fast the 800-li express train was.
The "800-li express" was the highest level of the postal system controlled by the royal family.
Do you think anyone can use the "800-mile express" service?
If you think so, you are wrong.
Generally speaking, only the emperor or important officials can use this authority, and the matters that allow these people to use the 800-li expedited authority must be major events related to national security or the people's livelihood, such as war reports, disaster relief, dispatching troops and other major events.
In short, the "800-li express" postal service is a royal patent.
Even though Qi Xiu Ze had a distinguished status, he was only the son of an imperial merchant. Even though the word "imperial merchant" had the word "emperor" in it, he was not a member of the royal family nor an important official. The Qi family wanted to use the 800-mile express and stamp these words on the envelope. Qi Xiu Ze did not have this status, but his father probably did.
Does Qi Xiu Ze really think he is an idiot?
Xu Yunfan took a sip of lemonade and said, "Don't try to fool me. I'm telling you, I know much more than you think. You can't fool me."
"Hey, brother, aren't you from overseas? How do you know so much?" Shen Ruxi was puzzled.
Even the local people of the Dayan Dynasty might not know about these things, and they didn't even know that there was such a thing as the 800-li express delivery.
How long has Xu Yunfan been here and he knows so much?
"That's because I'm extremely intelligent and have a photographic memory..." Xu Yunfan began to brag again.
Shen Ruxi, who wanted to slap herself in the face, said: "..."
He shouldn't have asked so much.
After having lunch with Qin Run and others, Xu Yunfan got on the ox cart and asked Sun Wu to take him back.
The greenhouse was built in the afternoon and the workers were ready. Nearly 10,000 kilograms of sweet potatoes were enough for them to work for a few days. Yesterday, Qin Daqian and his team had already purchased more than 10,000 kilograms of sweet potatoes.
When Xu Yunfan returned in the afternoon, he distributed the tools and arranged for the workers to start producing sweet potato flour.
As for the rack for drying the sweet potato noodles, Xu Yunfan naturally asked Qin Dayou and others to make it.
There are two large greenhouses, and after they are built, there is only about a hundred meters away from the foot of the mountain.
There were a lot of weeds over there, so Qin Dayou and his coworkers took some time to clear all the weeds nearby. Otherwise, there would be a lot of snakes, ants and insects in this hot summer.
The other aunts, grandmothers, uncles, and husbands hired by Xu Yunfan to make sweet potato noodles spontaneously cut some bamboo and surrounded the side of the greenhouse near the foot of the mountain with a bamboo fence.
