Chapter 554 Difficulties
Of course, all of the above are just Millipede’s guesses.

But it doesn't matter if he guessed wrong. The only loss is Xu Shoujing. Other schools may be eager to recruit such a prestigious and well-connected teacher, but Malu himself is not very interested in Xu Shoujing.

What he wants to be is an autocratic principal, a virtuous dictator and tyrant. What he needs is someone who is willing to obey and work, not an educational expert who gives orders.

After sending Xu Shoujing away at the speed of light, Malu looked at the remaining six candidates.

The six candidates were also looking at the young principal at this time. They thought that Malu would ask them to introduce themselves, talk about their education and work experience, and their teaching expertise, and then have a professional assessment.

Because this is the general process for schools to recruit teachers, Cao Youyi actually also prepared a set of test questions for Ma Lu.

But Malu threw them aside and said, "Does anyone among you know Houde's current ranking in the Ministry of Education?"

Although this question is a bit abrupt, since the following six people have come to apply for teaching positions at Houde, they have obviously done their homework in this regard.

Soon, a woman in a silver-gray jacquard satin skirt spoke up, "Houde is ranked 167th in the Ministry of Education, and is ranked... second to last among the 168 Fu Shi universities.

"But in fact, the Jiangling Women's Talisman Master College, which ranked last, has lost its qualification to operate because it did not recruit enough students this year. It will close after it completes the acceptance of the students currently on campus, so..."

The woman in the silver-gray jacquard satin skirt didn't say anything else, and Malu helped her finish the rest of the sentence.

"So we are now truly the last in the league. We can't continue like this."

Ma Lu slammed the table and said, "Principal Cao entrusted the school to me before he died. If I can't make some achievements, I will be ashamed of the trust that Principal Cao placed in me!"

Everyone can say nice things, but no one here is a fool, and everyone is aware of Houde's situation.

The students all picked up what others left behind, and so did the teachers. When a somewhat famous teacher finally came along, he was scolded away by the millipedes.

It is not easy to cheer up because there is no one to rely on and no money to pay for it.

However, when the future leader speaks, everyone still has to give him some face, and there were immediately many voices of agreement in the classroom.

A fat white man in a blue vest said, "Principal Ma is right. If we are lucky enough to become teachers of Houde, we will work hard with you to educate people and revitalize Houde."

"Very good," Malu was very satisfied with the attitude of the candidates, and then threw out another confusing question.

“Who is ranked 157th?”

"It should be... the Lingnan Education College of the Church." After a moment, the woman in the silver-gray jacquard satin skirt still said.

"Since we want to revitalize Houde, we naturally have to have a goal. Well, we should be more pragmatic. How about starting with the Lingnan Education College of this church as a target to catch up with?"

Malu took the teacup brought by Cao Youyi and blew into it.

Raise the school's ranking by ten places? This is indeed an intuitive and practical goal. Although it is not easy to achieve, fortunately Malu is young enough and has plenty of time.

As everyone was thinking about this, Malu stopped Cao Youyi who was serving tea and said, "I remember that if schools initiate ranking challenges, they have to notify the challenged at least one week in advance, right?"

"That's right." Cao Youyi nodded.

"Great, then please help me tell the church's Lingnan Education Institute, and we'll challenge them, so that students from our two schools can compete against each other next week."

After Malu finished speaking, he said to the six candidates beside him, "Gentlemen, please take this as a premise and formulate a student improvement plan so that we can defeat the Church Lingnan Education College in a week."

???

The classroom fell silent in an instant, and the six teachers who came to apply for the job were all stunned.

They didn't expect that Malu's goal was set on a weekly basis. It is true that Lingnan Education College is weak, but that is relative to the schools at the top of the rankings.

Compared to Houde, which is actually at the bottom, Lingnan’s strength is not inferior at all.

The school has 11 teachers and over a hundred students.

Among them is a student with Class B qualifications, named Luo Hengyi, who is very capable.

Luo Hengyi is not a freshman like Cao Jiajia. He is now a junior and has completed the task of cleaning up the disaster zone alone. He has been in newspapers and has been to the surrounding areas.

It is said that four of the top ten prestigious universities gave him admission letters, but he finally went to the little-known Lingnan University.

According to Luo Hengyi himself, it was because he heard the voice of the Lord at the last moment of his choice.

In short, Lingnan Institute of Education got a great bargain for free.

With Luo Hengyi, they are definitely a tough nut to crack. This time the Ministry of Education launched college reforms, and the Lingnan Education College should also have the idea of ​​using Luo Hengyi's strength to go further.

However, they probably didn't expect that they would be targeted before they could make a move.

And the one targeting them is Houde, who is the last in line.

"One week... this time is too short. By then, I won't be able to recognize all the students in the class, and I won't be able to teach anything at all."

The man in the blue vest said cautiously.

"Besides, Lingnan is not a good choice either." An old man with a gray cloth coat and white beard beside him also said.

"The practice of talismans takes at least a month. It's difficult to see results in a short period of time."

The woman in the silver-gray jacquard satin skirt was also not optimistic about Malu's plan. "It is very likely to force the issue, which is especially not conducive to the freshmen to lay a solid foundation."

Her words were agreed by many people.

Malu took a sip of tea and said, "I know everything you said, but I only asked what you plan to do. So, you don't have to answer in a hurry."

Malu looked at the traveler bracelet on his wrist again and said, "I will take the students to clean up the disaster zone later. I estimate that we will not be back until dawn, which means you have at least six hours to answer the questions.

"I will decide who will become Houde's teacher based on the answers you submit, so please think carefully before answering."

"Clearing the disaster zone? There are no disaster zones near Pingcheng recently." A man in a suit muttered in a low voice.

"Oh, in Hanjiang City. The disaster belt is in Hanjiang City." Malu stood up.

"Han River? But...it's more than 300 kilometers away from Pingcheng."

"That's right, so I asked Instructor Cao to help charter three planes." Malu said.

The money earned from selling materials last time has been almost spent, but according to the new regulations, the Ministry of Education will now give additional cash rewards for clearing the disaster zone.

Last week, Malu led the team to clean up two disaster zones, one of which was a level one disaster zone and the other was a mutated disaster zone, and received rewards of 500 and 2000 yuan respectively.

In addition to the turquoise he obtained, Cao Youyi also sold half of it as he requested. Now the school's available funds on the account have exceeded 5000 yuan.

Chartering three planes is not a problem.
