What the principal said was the truth.
The primary school itself is a cooperative relationship between the street and the army, and it is impossible for the army to bear all the expenses.
It was based on this that Yu Sui came up with the idea of setting up a school-run factory.
Yu Sui readily agreed: "Yes. If we can reach an agreement tomorrow, I can give you the money first."
The principal then said, "Thank you, Teacher Yu. I've discovered that you are a truly good teacher."
Yu Sui thought the principal was just being polite, but when she went out to get lunch that evening, a family member of a staff officer stopped her and asked, "Hey, Teacher Yu, are you really not going back to school?"
Yu Sui smiled: "No more."
The staff officer's family member said, "Why not? My little babe talks about you every day. He was so happy a few days ago, smiling every day when he came home from school. But now, he's either crying or having a runny nose. I just found out the teacher has changed. It's really bad. The current teacher, Mr. Jiang, is absolutely sick. Sigh! But, Teacher Yu, why don't you come anymore?"
Yu Sui: "It's just... the school can't let me go anymore."
"Why? Why? Why?"
"Haha, sister-in-law, let's not ask anymore. Maybe it's because I didn't teach her well."
Yu Sui gave the other person a meaningful smile and walked away.
Not only did this sister-in-law ask this question, but other sisters-in-law also asked Yu Sui the same question the next day.
Yu Sui still kept smiling and said, "Maybe I didn't teach you well."
After that, Yu Sui was busy with the operation of the school-run factory.
Originally, her plan was to find a printing factory to cooperate with her in printing college entrance examination materials.
She had long since learned that after the Gaokao was reinstated, many people frantically signed up, only to discover that even review materials were unavailable. Many people were left to guess and study blindly, which ultimately led to missed opportunities.
As for her, she was just going to get information for Yu Hemiao and Yu Qi to use, so she might as well take the opportunity to make some money.
However, after her research, she found that there were no factories nearby that could print review materials. There were quite a few printing factories in the provincial capital, but they were all state-owned. If she wanted to print her college entrance examination review materials at such a place, she might have to wait in line until the following year.
Because the typesetting and printing methods are still relatively backward, the production process is slow. If it is a book of 400,000 words, the general sample production cycle may take three months. Therefore, you have to queue up for printing anything. If she proposes to print something privately, she must give way to other people's regular printed materials. She has no idea when it will be printed.
Of course, we also have to consider the possibility of information being leaked or the materials being secretly passed out.
So the best way to make this money is to set up your own factory.
Now private factories are not allowed.
So Yu Sui compromised and that was to seek cooperation with the unit.
The best way is to set up a factory together with the primary school.
It only took Yu Sui two hours to agree on the cooperation mode with the principal of the university. Yu Sui knew that the students and teachers were quite cold, so she immediately gave 600 yuan as the contract fee for the factory. The principal of the university got the procedures for the school-run factory completed in two days.
Yu Sui also asked the principal of the high school to introduce a vacant house on Heshan Street as a factory.
The house belonged to a relative of the principal, and Yu Sui readily paid a year's rent. The relative was so happy that he thanked the principal again and again and praised Yu Sui again and again. Everyone was very happy.
I didn’t expect that Yu Sui was so busy that she completely forgot that she had been a substitute teacher, and there were still people who helped to remember her.
When the principal of the university gave Yu Sui the official approval for the school-run factory, he said with a red face:
"Xiao Yu, you don't know. Recently, many parents have come to the school to ask why you stopped teaching in the class you used to teach. They all say that since you stopped teaching, the children haven't been very lively when they come home. They say that Teacher Jiang has too many rules and is always scolding the children. Sigh. So many people have been asking, so I told them straight up that you are a military officer's family member and don't belong in our neighborhood. The army won't let you come, and there's nothing I can do."
Yu Sui smiled reservedly: "You can't say that. I've always known that it's because I'm not a good teacher that the army won't let me teach anymore."
The principal of the university also argued: "Of course not, I can testify! It's certainly not your personal fault. Well, never mind. To be honest, I still prefer you to run this school-run factory. I think it's quite presentable now! Oh, this machine of yours looks very high-end, so why did you buy it?"
In the dilapidated house, there was already a machine as big as a bed, which looked very complicated.
This is an old-fashioned phototypesetter that Yu Sui bought in a replacement space. It’s in line with the art of this era. Hehe, it was made in Germany in the 1960s.
For Yu Sui, this kind of machine is backward, but for this era, this thing is definitely advanced. It is definitely much faster than the lead type typesetting and printing of ordinary manufacturers, and does not require more people to operate it.
But for now, we must remain modest and not let others know that this machine is leading in the local market.
Yu Sui: "Yes, I asked someone to buy it from Shanghai. They shipped over some old machines that were discarded. It's just the beginning, so we have to be frugal in everything."
"Yes, yes. By the way, thank you so much for the 600 yuan contract fee. I used it all to buy coal and a small boiler to provide heating for several classes! Hahaha!"
"You're welcome. My factory is still in its early stages. By this time next year, I'll definitely be able to give our primary school 2,000 yuan as a contract fee."
"Thank you in advance. If there's anything I can help you with, just let me know."
The principal left with satisfaction.
Yu Sui also packed up her things and left.
The factory had to be closed most of the time. She had to wait for Yu Qi to send the completed exercises, and she had to take photos of them and organize them before she could start printing.
She will have plenty of time to stay at home from now on, and the first thing she needs to do now is to find Sister Yan Zi.
Unfortunately, Yu Sui's Supply and Marketing Department didn't find anyone. They said that Sister Yan Zi had gone to inspect the factory downstairs.
Yu Sui had no choice but to go home first.
Then she saw Ding Lili leaning against her door.
Yu Sui: “…” Why does this girl like to block the door so much?
We used to block Guan Changqing’s house, and now we block her house.
There is a difference in his posture though. Before, he looked like he was peeping, but now he is leaning against the door, as if he is dozing off.
Yu Sui walked over and patted her: "Hey, Ding Lili, are you really asleep?"
Ding Lili opened her eyes, revealing red bloodshot eyes and dark circles beneath her eyelids. "Oh, you're here! I actually fell asleep! That's strange! I couldn't sleep at home, so I ran to your door and fell asleep while standing."
Yu Sui was speechless, opened the door and let her come in and sit down.
It is still necessary to be polite when entertaining guests. Yu Sui first took out a plate of pineapple cakes she made herself and gave it to Ding Lili as a snack, then turned around and went into the room to make tea for her.
By the time she finished making the tea, the plate of pineapple cakes was gone.
