"Settlement allowance?"
Teacher Wang, who was assisting Xu Shang at the side, couldn't help but stretch his neck like a giraffe.
Teacher Wang couldn't help but wonder, why did he know these three words and understand their meaning when put together, but couldn't figure out what kind of thoughts and feelings they expressed?
"Talented people must have resettlement allowances!"
Xu Shang said, taking out a thick envelope, "It's not much, just one month's salary, Team Leader Tian, please don't think it's too little!"
At this moment, Teacher Wang finally found the answer.
It turned out that what he expressed was his feelings of envy and jealousy to the point of almost turning into red eyes.
One month's salary... If he remembered correctly, Team Leader Tian's monthly salary was three thousand.
Even Team Leader Tian was flattered and quickly waved his hands to refuse, "Really! Principal Xu, we really don't need any resettlement allowance!"
"The resettlement allowance is for those in need, but I already have a dormitory and a cafeteria. I don't have to worry about food and drink, so why do I need resettlement allowance?"
Teacher Wang couldn't help but nod beside them. The new teacher's treatment was much better than theirs. They didn't have any special teacher dormitory. When they were not at home, they just found an empty classroom to live in. A new canteen was also built, but it would take two days to start operation. Teacher Wang hadn't tasted the food in the canteen yet. He had always heard that the food in Tianya Village canteen was delicious.
With such good benefits, do we still need to pay settling-in allowance?
But Xu Shang obviously has a different opinion.
"Even if you have a dormitory, you still need to prepare some miscellaneous daily necessities. For example, for teaching work, you may need to buy a laptop or something, which costs money! The school has limited financial resources and cannot provide teachers with work computers. I feel very ashamed."
Both Team Leader Tian and Teacher Wang couldn't help but complain in their hearts at this moment.
"I don't see that you have limited financial resources at all!"
Seeing Xu Shang domineeringly stuffing the resettlement fee into Team Leader Tian's hands, Teacher Wang suddenly remembered Bai Juyi's Song of Everlasting Sorrow - it can be said: The longevity of the world may end someday, but this lingering sorrow will never end.
Xu Shang rolled his eyes at Teacher Wang's expression and said, "Can we give one to all the teachers in our school as well?"
"Really?!" Teacher Wang's breathing became rapid.
"Of course it's true!"
As for this "settlement allowance", Xu Shang would of course give it. After all, his school was located in a remote mountainous area in a remote province. People came from far away, so it would be unreasonable not to give them the settlement allowance.
But Xu Shang also knew the truth that 'it's not the lack of resources that is worrying, but the inequality of resources'. The teachers in the school worked diligently and gave so much, but the outsiders were the ones who got the first place. They would definitely be disappointed.
As the principal, could Xu Shang do something that would disappoint the teachers?
Money doesn’t matter. Isn’t the purpose of making money to make everyone happy?
Soon, the teachers happily told each other the news.
"The money is coming, the money is coming!"
"Let's go get the money!"
"Old principal, it's time to give out money."
"Give money?" The old educated youth principal looked confused.
The young teacher had not yet developed the ability to read people's expressions, and excitedly said, "Principal Xu will give us resettlement allowance."
“……”The old educated youth principal.
Are you kidding me!
Who is the newcomer?
…
Although there are only four teachers in the high school department of Tianya Village Middle School, if the elementary school department is included, there are a total of 10 teachers in addition to the old principal. Xu Shang also adjusted their salaries.
High school teachers, represented by Mr. Wang, are in the highest salary bracket, all at 1,800. The salary of primary school teachers is two levels lower, at only 1,200.
This salary is still relatively reasonable. After all, the teaching intensity of the high school and elementary school departments is far from being on the same level. High school teachers have many courses, are under great pressure, have to study in the mornings and evenings, and manage boys and girls' dormitories. I don't know how many brain cells they have to kill.
A salary increase is already very exciting, and a resettlement allowance of one month's salary makes people even happier to the point of being speechless.
As the representative of the teachers and the tacitly designated successor of the old educated youth principal, Teacher Wang was the first to step forward to receive the resettlement allowance. When he took the thin envelope in his hand, Teacher Wang felt it was heavy, and his heart was filled with peace of mind.
Excited, Mr. Wang couldn't help but said to Xu Shang:
“Thank you for your cultivation, Principal!”
This situation and this scene inexplicably made Xu Shang feel a little out of place, but he couldn't figure out what it was all about.
Forget it, damn it, don’t think about all these trivial things. Xu Shang handed the prepared resettlement funds to the hungry teachers one by one.
Not far away, a pair of old eyes were staring at all this.
Rebellion, rebellion.
All his teachers rebelled!
How sad!
What a pain!
But he did not blame these teachers. In fact, many of them were his students. They stayed in this school because they were inspired by him. The purpose of all this was to enable more children to get out of the mountains and see the outside world.
But they were treated so badly.
Even though many leaders in the county were former students of this old man, he still could not get even one position for the school.
Instead, what I got were those seemingly caring but actually cold answers: the school should be split up; there is no one left in the village, and only one primary school is enough; there is no need to continue running it...
