Chapter 13 Negotiation
Professor Manstein placed a pile of text materials in his hand on the coffee table, then sat next to Shu De Aki and looked directly at Long Kui in front of him:
"Introduce yourself, Chairman of the Discipline Committee of Kassel College, Manstein. I am here to answer all your questions."

After saying that, he pulled out a book of documents from the information on the table in front of him and pushed it to Long Kui in front of him.

"This is my professor's certificate, with the official seal of the American Association of Teachers on it."

Long Kui picked up the black certificate and opened it to look at it. In addition to a mugshot, the resume of the schools where the professor had worked was written below, and it was also stamped with the official seals of several prestigious universities.

"Harvard, MIT, Cambridge..."

Looking at the familiar school name on the certificate, even Long Kui couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

These schools were familiar to him even though he had been in this world for a long time.

They are all top universities in the world.

Long Kui didn't expect that the ordinary-looking little old man in front of him would have such a dazzling resume.

At this time, his suspicion of Cassel had declined a little.

Professor Manstein seemed to see something on Long Kui's face, and without saying a word, he took out a stack of documents from the text on the table again, and then slowly pushed it to him:

"If you still have concerns about our school, you can take another look at this."

After Long Kui took the documents, he opened the first one and found that it was a copy of a regular university license registered by the U.S. Bureau of Education.

Then, in the folder at the back, there was a photo, which showed a luxurious building with a typical medieval European flavor.

Judging from the old English words above each building, these are campus facilities such as libraries, sports fields, and campus dance halls.

There is also a photo of the entire college taken from a distance.

Judging from the photos, Kassel College seems to be located halfway up a mountain. The photo was taken in autumn, and the mountains are covered with fiery red maple leaves. It looks like... the entire school is surrounded by jumping flames.

A group of students wearing uniform dark green school uniforms stood at the school gate together with a gray-haired professor. At first glance, they were all handsome men and beautiful women. The professor's temperament also revealed the feeling of being an elite intellectual of mankind.

"I think Aki has told you about the origin of our school before, so I won't go into details."

Professor Manstein calmly narrated the moment Long Kui put down the information:
"I know that we suddenly contacted you and introduced ourselves as a foreign school that wants to recruit you as a student. You must be wary. You will probably think that we are some kind of pheasant university."

"To the extreme, they may even think that we are liars, so I came this time and brought sufficient information and proofs. I hope you can dispel your doubts about us and accept our invitation to enroll as preparatory students."

After Long Kui listened to what the other party said, he gently stirred the cappuccino that the waiter had just served with his left hand, and a silence fell between the two parties.

After a moment, he opened his mouth, looked at Professor Manstein opposite him with a pair of brown pupils, and asked softly:
"I still don't understand why you came to me? The seniors in Shilan Middle School should be in line with your admissions standards, right?"

"No... they can't compare to you." Professor Manstein glanced at Long Kui meaningfully and said slowly:

"Our Kassel College only recruits those who have performed extremely well in this world. In our opinion, you are far better than your seniors. In order to recruit you, the school directly gave me the necessary requirements. A successful death order.”

Long Kui raised his eyelids calmly and continued to slowly stir the coffee on the table. The milk cap on the cappuccino had almost been stirred by him, and he said expressionlessly:
"It seems that I really have no reason to refuse an olive branch from a prestigious university?" "If you decide to join our Kassel College, we can sign it now, and your student status will be transferred to the United States tonight, and tomorrow you can directly Pack your bags and fly directly to the other side of the ocean with us to start your happy college career." Professor Manstein planned to strike while the iron was hot.

"It's so efficient. It deserves to be a famous school in the United States..." Long Kui said quietly:

"But I still refuse."

Professor Manstein almost vomited blood as soon as this twist of politeness first and then fighting came out. All the ideological work he had done just now was in vain, right?

reject? How can you say no? It's easy for you to refuse, but it's me who will cause problems after you refuse!

Let an S-class hybrid who has awakened a suspected high-risk word spirit roam around, who knows what kind of alien murders will happen in this coastal city one day.

When the time comes, the person who comes here will not be a patient old man like him, but the group of murderers with executioner weapons in their hands!
"What's the reason?" Professor Manstein suppressed the depression in his heart and asked calmly.

"I heard that tuition fees for private universities in the United States are very expensive. If you had found me two days earlier, you might have stimulated my interest and agreed. It's a pity..."

Long Kui took a sip of the cappuccino that had already merged with the milk cap in his hand, squeezed the handle of the spoon, and said with a chuckle:

"I just went bankrupt yesterday and can't afford your tuition."

"Is it because of this?" Manstein couldn't help but have a strange expression on his face. Long Kui on the opposite side was not angry because he didn't see any mockery in his eyes.

"If a valued student at Cassel College cannot join because there is no tuition fee, then I will probably be criticized in turn by the school board of directors at a meeting, and after that, I will be kicked out of the school by the angry principal."

Manstein took out an invoice written in English from his arms, leaned it directly towards Long Kui, looked into his eyes, and said in a deep voice:
"This check contains 36000 US dollars, which is a scholarship after you join the school. With your excellent grades, it will not be difficult to get this money after you go to school, so it is in line with the school's rules for me to award it to you in advance."

Looking at the check in front of him, Long Kui's eyes couldn't help but twitch. This was the first time he showed a surprised expression since he sat down in this cafe.

Just when his mind was a little confused, Professor Manstein's voice from the opposite side sounded again:
"Also, our school covers all tuition and all board and lodging expenses for any students from poor families. Every year the school board also establishes a fund for poor students to provide funding, so you don't have to worry about coming to our card. The cost of attending Sayre College.”

"It sounds very tempting. Just like doing charity, does a capitalist society like the United States also have such kind people who seem to be thankless?"

Long Kui said bluntly.

US$36000 is not a small amount in this world, and the other party said it was a scholarship. Which university would advance scholarships? Is the other party so confident that his grades can meet the college's standards?
Long Kui himself didn't have this confidence. After all, he didn't even know the conditions for awarding the scholarship.

"Our school will never impose such conditions on others, but this is for you, Long Kui..." This was the first time Professor Manstein called Long Kui's full name besides the initial greeting. .

"The value of you is enough for our school to pay such a price, or even...a bigger price!"

After Long Kui listened to the other party's words, he lowered his head and remained silent for a few seconds. After a while, he asked with some confusion:

"Why? Just because I am excellent at Shilan Middle School? But there are many outstanding students in our school, why do you want to find me?"

After Professor Manstein quietly listened to Long Kui's words, he said calmly:
"No, not excellent, you are 'excellent'."

Long Kui suddenly raised his head and looked at Manstein in front of him. The latter's pupils had turned golden!
