Unlike the first two rows of houses, the last row is built very spaciously and all the houses are connected.
The difference is that there are no desks here, only rows of long benches where people sit next to each other.
Miao Qing's mouth opened into an O shape: "No wonder there are no people on the village roads. The whole village is actually attending classes here!"
"Also, what is this about?"
Zhou Cheng swallowed and whispered, "This is... a course on international trade! I've done interviews on this topic before, and these are the basic delivery methods."
Miao Qing's eyes widened. "That teacher just now said that the villagers can do the test papers? Did I hear that right?"
Zhou Cheng nodded: "I heard it too."
The two of them were a bit indigestible. This seemed like a fantasy to them. After all, many people nowadays can't even write.
Especially in this classroom, there are people of all ages.
From children in their teens to old men and women in their fifties and sixties, they all held pens and notebooks in their hands, taking notes seriously.
The two were once again drawn to the discussion in the room.
The classroom atmosphere for villagers is not as serious as that in elementary, junior high and high schools. It is always more active and students can ask if they don’t understand something.
Because of the villagers’ age, the teacher would explain repeatedly if they didn’t understand something, and was very patient.
Li Qiang raised his hand and asked, "Teacher Zhou, comparing this, with Ex-Works, the seller has the final say, while Ex-Boe has to deliver the goods to the port or vessel. So, isn't Ex-Works better?"
Zhou Qiming encouraged him, "Qiangzi, that's a good question! You're brave enough to think. Let's give you a round of applause!"
There was another round of applause. Li Qiang was obviously excited. He touched his head embarrassedly and then sat down.
Zhou Qiming explained: "There is no specific delivery method that is better. It depends on the conditions negotiated between the buyer and the seller."
"Ex-factory delivery seems more convenient, as it doesn't require transportation or customs clearance. However, its price or profit is not necessarily higher."
"Delivery on board is a bit more troublesome, but it provides a good service and can also increase product prices. We have to analyze each order individually and choose the most appropriate method."
"Of course, we have other delivery methods, which I will explain to you one by one later..."
The villagers below started chattering and discussing.
"Teacher Zhou is right. Besides, what if the buyer insists on delivery on board? Then the deal will be off. In my opinion, the seller needs to be more fully prepared."
Zhou Qiming said with relief: "That makes sense!"
Someone else was so excited that they suggested, "Teacher Zhou, why don't you talk more about it today? Talk about the other methods as well."
Zhou Qiming smiled and said, "You can't bite off more than you can chew. If everyone's accuracy rate in today's test reaches 90%, we can make faster progress in the next class."
The man raised his notebook above his head and said, "Those who missed the class, come over after class and take notes. With my hand speed, I can remember everything clearly."
Sure enough, a few old men greeted him and said, "Leave it on the desk after school. We'll copy it and send it home for you."
…
The get out of class ended. Zhou Qiming gathered up his lesson plan and said, "Everyone, take a ten-minute break. Go to the restroom if you need to, or have a drink of water if you need to. The next class is Teacher Fang's Company Management."
After saying that, he walked straight out of the classroom.
Zhou Qiming looked to be no more than twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, and his attire was no different from that of the villagers, but he had a sense of uprightness.
Several older girls in the classroom stared at Zhou Qiming's back.
Zhou Cheng...
Miao Qing...
They also wanted to stay and continue listening.
However, it seems that it will be discovered soon.
Zhou Qiming saw two people standing outside the classroom looking inside and said politely.
"Which production team are you from? Stop peeping under the window. There's room inside the classroom. Just go in and listen."
In the past two years, many young people from the surrounding production teams have come to listen to the lectures whenever they have some free time. It's no longer surprising.
And their first production team has always maintained a welcoming attitude.
Zhou Cheng shook his head. They weren't from any production team. He asked, "Teacher, are you talking about international trade?"
Zhou Qiming nodded: "Yes, I am responsible for the international trade courses for the villagers."
Zhou Cheng continued, "Are there any other teachers?"
Zhou Qiming: "Yes, the villagers have already opened 18 courses. They cover a lot of majors. Even I have to attend the classes when I encounter something I don't understand."
Zhou Cheng... Why does this feel more enriching than college?
Miao Qing: "Teacher Zhou, may I ask where you teachers learned all this?"
Zhou Qiming then took a closer look at the two men. They were obviously better dressed than the villagers and spoke with a Beijing accent. Suddenly, he asked, "Aren't you from Shannan County?"
Zhou Cheng and Miao Qing shook their heads.
Zhou Qiming narrowed his eyes, was silent for a moment, and then spoke cheerfully.
"There's nothing to hide about this. This is all knowledge I acquired before being sent down to the countryside. It's a good opportunity for us to help each other and teach the villagers."
Now, they are no longer despised. This piece of land has given them confidence and made them stand up straight.
Miao Qing: "Release...relevant households?"
Realizing that what he said was a bit rude, Miao Qing immediately reacted and explained, "Teacher Zhou, I didn't mean anything else. I was just a little surprised."
She really didn't mean to discriminate. She was fascinated by Zhou Qiming's high-spirited manner when she saw him teaching.
Zhou Qiming soothed them, "It's okay. Don't overthink it. Most of the teachers here are from lower-level families. Think about it another way: being lower-level can also make a difference."
Zhou Qiming finished speaking, and the next class was about to begin. He invited them in again, while he finished his work and went home.
Zhou Cheng and Miao Qing actually went in. They swore that they really wanted to feel it.
The lecturer this time was a middle-aged man, and the class mainly talked about the company's management system.
The teacher first assumed a company, and then began to talk about the attendance system, reward and punishment system, assessment system, etc. of this company.
The language is concise, but the meaning is comprehensive. Obviously, the teacher has carefully planned the teaching method considering the students' acceptance level.
It can't be said that he is not attentive!
Zhou Cheng couldn't help but praise: "Who wouldn't like to listen to a class like this?"
Wang Taohua said proudly, "Our village chief said we are farmers, not university students. The courses we arrange must be acceptable to us in order to be effective."
"Not just this teacher, all of our teachers prepare their lessons very carefully."
"These teachers are all excellent! It's a pity that my daughter is too young. Otherwise, if I had someone like Teacher Zhou, I would have to find a matchmaker to mediate."
Another woman, Sun Yingzi, said, "Forget it. The younger generations in the relocated households have had their doors trampled down. By the time your daughter grows up, there'll be no hope!"
Zhou Cheng: "Are they so popular?"
He really saw it!
