Rebirth in 1993, My Dad is a Returned Youth

Chapter 226: Good Students Come from the Golden Stick
Three Trees Cafe.

The owner of this cafe is said to be an international student who runs this small cafe while starting his own business.

Because the decoration style is based on the owner's memories of being abroad, it looks more fashionable than local cafes.

Therefore, it attracts many petty bourgeoisie and white-collar workers to drink coffee here, or entrepreneurs to communicate here.

Li Xueer was sitting in her seat, and the seat opposite her was empty.

After a few minutes, a man in a suit walked towards her.

The man looks decent, and with the suit on, he looks like a salesman. But the fabric of the suit is frayed, what boss would wear it like that?

"Li Xueer. It's been a long time since I sat and chatted with you face to face."

Li Xueer muttered to herself, "Have we ever communicated face to face?"

But she still smiled and said politely, "Yes, Gao Jun, it's been a year since you graduated. You can't go back to your student days. You were a very shy and introverted boy back then. You would blush when you saw girls. After not seeing you for a year, you have become much bolder."

Gao Jun waved his hand, "The past is too painful to look back on."

I called the waiter and ordered two cups of coffee.

"It is said that the owner of this coffee shop is also a sea turtle, just like your boss. But he is said to be engaged in the Internet industry."

"The Internet isn't even popular yet, but there are people who want to start a business in this field. It's really rare..."

"By the way, Li Xueer, is your mother okay?"

Gao Jun was chatting idly, observing Li Xueer cautiously.

I have to admit that Li Xueer became more beautiful after graduation than when she was in school.

The OL uniform she was wearing and her tight body curves were fatally tempting.

If it weren't for the last time when Li Xueer asked him to borrow money and he accidentally found out that her mother had leukemia, he never thought that one day he would have contact with the goddess.

When Li Xueer was a student, she was the campus beauty of the School of Management, and many people liked her.

Later, he was pursued by the president of the student union of the School of Management, which disappointed many people.

After graduation, I thought I might never have the chance to meet my goddess again in this life.

The last time Li Xueer asked him to borrow money, he had just spent it all.

After he started working, he realized that the world was so wonderful. As long as he had money, he could have a girlfriend, so he spent all his money on women.

When Li Xueer came to borrow money, he was penniless and in great distress.

However, even if he didn't spend any money, his salary was far from one hundred thousand, only a few thousand at most.

"My mom is fine, thank you for your concern. By the way, I want to ask you again about the demolition of the old school you mentioned last time. Is your company planning to take over that place?"

Li Xueer just asked casually last time, but she didn't expect that Gao Jun really had news.

"Yes, I am working for Vanke now. We want the land where the school is located. We want to use it for commercial development. Why are you asking this? Do you want to participate in the bidding?"

Li Xueer nodded and said without hiding anything, "My boss also wants to rent that place, but not for real estate development."

……

……

Gao Jun watched Li Xueer's slim back as she left and let out a breath. Li Xueer refused his invitation to dinner.

"Let's see how long you can remain so arrogant."

"I will definitely give you food from now on!!"

Li Xueer went to the public telephone booth and called Li Kang.

"Boss, I heard that Vanke is going to take over that piece of land. Can we win over them?"

It turned out to be Vanke. Li Kang thought that the developers of that land must be powerful, but he didn't expect the other party to be so powerful.

With his limited influence, how can he compete with Vanke for territory?

No! Li Kang thinks that Vanke’s acquisition of land in Shanghai does not necessarily mean it will be developed immediately.

The hottest real estate markets in the country now are Hainan and Shenzhen, and these two places are must-fight places for real estate developers.

Hainan's housing prices are as high as 7500 yuan per square meter, while Shanghai's prices are only to yuan at this time! This shows how big the bubble is.

Real estate developers are almost scrambling to speculate on properties there, they are completely crazy.

The bubble burst in June.

Li Kang estimated that Vanke might also be trapped in it. The other party might want to take advantage of the underestimation of the Shanghai housing market to buy the land at the bottom first and then sell it after the price goes up.

Thinking of this, Li Kang breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Vanke was not determined to take it, there was still a chance.

He got in the car, picked up Li Xueer, and went to Xingfu Primary School together.

Just when Li Xueer got on the car, she was seen by Gao Jun who was observing from a distance.

He observed from behind for a long time, wanting to know who Li Xueer was waiting for.

She didn't expect that a driver in a Mercedes would come to pick her up.

Seeing his former goddess getting into a luxury car, Gao Jun clenched his fists, "Bitch, you're hooking up with a rich guy again."

At the same time, he was very jealous of Li Kang, who drove a Mercedes-Benz and snatched away the woman he liked.

Gao Jun stopped a car on the side of the road and followed it.

All the way to Xingfu Primary School.

There is such a dilapidated primary school in the JA area.

This school has a history of hundreds of years and is a European-style building.

It's just because of lack of funds that weeds are hung on the walls.

The playground was also cracked. The teaching building was only three stories high, and the classrooms were OK, barely passable.

The old man was about to lock the school gate.

Although there are no students in the school, the principal is still reluctant to give up the school and has to open and close the school every day. It has become a habit for many years.

"Uncle, wait a minute."

The old man was about sixty years old, but his hair was grey and his face looked old.

"What are you doing?" the old man asked in a dull voice.

"I want to ask about this school, why is there no students or teachers?"

"You're not from around here, are you? Who wouldn't go to the newly built public elementary school?"

Li Kang nodded, "That doesn't mean we'll lose all our students."

"What do you mean by not so?" The old man was a little angry. "You saw it all. This is the fact."

……

Gao Jun, who followed behind, was shocked when he saw Li Xueer and the man coming to the school, "Could it be that the young-looking man is her boss?!"

Seeing that Li Kang was so young, handsome and rich, Gao Jun was extremely jealous.

I was originally in a calm mood, but now I just wanted to create some trouble for the other party.

So he called the company and told them about Li Xueer and Li Kang coming to visit the school.

"Gao Jun! Are you at the scene now?"

"Yes, I just happened to run into them when I came here."

"That's the land we've set our eyes on. It has huge potential for appreciation in value in the future, so we must not let them get it. Just listen to me and go and ruin their business."

The supervisor promised him benefits, so Gao Jun had no reason not to go.

Li Kang had a very pleasant conversation with the old man and even opened the door to let the two of them go in for a tour of the school.

As soon as you enter, you can feel the breath of history.

Li Kang was overjoyed, this was absolutely a treasure land!
The traces of time cannot be bought with any amount of money. Even if you spend money to make it look old, it still doesn't look like it.

But Hope Primary School is full of historical deposits.

People of this era prefer Western-style high-tech buildings, which must be new, tall, and big.

Many old buildings were demolished during this period. Who would like to starve while guarding antiques?

"Uncle, this school is great! If I could study in such an environment before, I would have no worries about not being able to succeed. At least I could have been admitted to a key university."

When Li Xueer heard him say this, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.

Li Kang started fooling people again.

"Are you serious?" Yu Zhengfei's eyes lit up. It had been a long time since he heard such nice and pleasant words.

Students and parents all disliked this school because it was shabby, but this was the school to which he had devoted his entire life.

"Of course. Look at how naturally the school blends into nature. The school is surrounded by dense trees and the environment is quiet. It is a very suitable place for study."

"Not necessarily! Who would come to study in such a shabby, old-fashioned school nowadays?"

A sudden voice suddenly sounded behind them.

Several people turned around.

Gao Jun showed a surprised expression on his face, "Hey, Li Xueer, why are you here?"

"I'm here with my boss to look at this school. Why are you here too?"

"The company sent me here to talk to the principal."

"Principal Yu, please don't go back on your word. Our company has already signed a letter of intent."

"Principal?" Li Kang was extremely surprised. "Old man, are you the principal?"

This old man looks like the security guard Uncle Qin, wearing a white vest, shorts and slippers.

It turned out to be the principal.
Suddenly I began to understand why such a good school had become like this.

Yu Zhengfei sighed, "Don't worry, I haven't thought about regretting it yet."

"Little brother, I can see that you really like this school, but I don't plan to continue running it. It's better to sell it now while it's worth some money and get some pension money."

"That's right." Gao Jun said happily: "Times are changing. These old buildings should have been eliminated long ago. Keeping them will only take up space."

"Gao Jun, has your company paid to buy this school?"

"Not yet, it's just a matter of time. The company has already set its sights on this place and there's no way they'll give it up."

Li Xueer walked over and wanted to ask more specific questions.

The fragrant breeze blowing towards him made Gao Jun fascinated and he wanted to possess this woman for himself.

Don't be impatient. As long as they want, I can keep them hanging and finally make Li Xueer, this woman, sacrifice herself obediently.

I've been working for a year and I've seen all kinds of things.

"Do you want this piece of land too?"

"Yes, we need a classroom in the school for our classes."

In desperation, Li Xueer exposed their needs in front of her old classmates.

"Xue'er, why are you in such a hurry? We don't have to do it. I just don't want to tear down such a good school for commercial development."

"Sir, what is your name?"

Li Xueer quickly introduced Li Kang, not wanting him to speak, "This is my boss, Li Kang. Boss, this is my college classmate, now working as a salesperson at Vanke."

Li Kang shook hands with the other party.

Today's sales, especially real estate sales, still have some value.

With the development of the city, a large number of outsiders have poured into the big cities, so houses in Shanghai will never have trouble selling.

The dividend period can last for many years.

The other party is a college graduate, and he may be able to succeed if he works on his own for a few years.

Later, the market prospered, various talents emerged, and the sales industry became discredited.

"Mr. Li, maybe you need to move to another place. Our company has taken a fancy to this place."

"How much money is your company prepared to pay for the school?"

"It's not much, just about one million. And we also promised that when we build a house here in the future, we will give one to Mr. Yu so that he can continue to live in the 'school'.

"Gao Jun, do you really have to use this land to build a house? Can't you be flexible? We can give you a benefit. In private..." Li Xueer leaned close to him and said.

"Li Xueer, it's not that I don't want to help, it's just that it's a little difficult. This is a project that the vice president wants, and he asked me to negotiate it in order to train me. If I fail, there will be no hope of promotion in the future."

Gao Jun deliberately left a crack so that Li Xueer would feel that she could still try playing the emotional card, and maybe she would succeed.

Little did he know that Gao Jun had grasped this kind of mentality.

Throw out the bait little by little. As long as Li Xueer and Li Kang still have ideas in their minds, there is no need to worry that they will not take the bait.

Maybe her boss will encourage his subordinates to please him.

These tricks are also what I learned from working this year.

Li Kang didn't care at all, but Li Xueer was very anxious.

Seeing that Li Kang is under a lot of work pressure recently, I want to share the pressure with him.

"Gao Jun, can we find some time to talk?" Li Xueer said in a low voice.

Gao Jun was naturally very happy and laughed heartily.

Li Kang chuckled in his heart, feeling that he could still try harder.

He didn't take Gao Jun seriously. As for what Li Xueer wanted to do, he had no control over it, as long as she didn't go too far.

It just so happened that Yu Zhengfei also didn't want to see the school demolished, and he felt he could play the emotional card to win its favor.

I immediately invited Lao Yu to have a meal together and then chat.

"Old Yu, why are you selling it like this? I want to rent your school. Is that okay? To be honest, I'm also in education. I have more and more students now and need bigger classrooms. I want to use your place temporarily."

Old Yu drank some rice wine and ate some meat.

Li Xueer was still drinking with the old and the young.

"Boss, drink less. You drank a lot in the past two days." Li Xueer reminded.

The first two people were drunk and almost made a mistake.

Fortunately, a phone call came at the critical moment and Li Kang was taken away.

Li Xueer still has quite a few complaints about this.

Li Kang had no choice. As an older generation, who doesn’t smoke and drink?

If I don't accompany them, I won't be able to chat with them or eat at the same table.

Fortunately, Li Kangyan can smoke a little and drink a little.

As for his drinking capacity, I can’t say much. Even Li Xueer can get him drunk.

"Brother, I have devoted my whole life to this school, but in the end it still ended up like this. I had no choice but to sell it. I am really disappointed with this business."

"I advise you to get a job as a teacher in a public school and don't think about starting your own business. There is no hope in the education industry."

Li Kang disagreed with what he said. He believed that education would certainly make a big difference, but this old man was limited by the times. He had been dealing with children all his life and his vision was limited.

"Thank you for talking to me about this. I have something for you."

Having said this, Yu Zhengfei took out a ruler, which was probably used to hit children's hands.

He handed it to Li Kang solemnly and said, "I don't need it anymore. I'll give it to you later."

"A good student is born under the golden stick, and a filial son is born under the stick. This is the educational experience of our ancestors. You must remember it so that you can achieve something in the future and become a good teacher."

Li Kang's heart was pounding, and when he got the ruler, he felt like his hands were burned.

Good guy, not only did he pass on his experience, but he also passed on his tools.

I was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and cursed in my heart: "This old guy, there is a reason why the school didn't succeed."

At your age, which student's parent would like you?

What’s more, they are parents in Shanghai.
