Chapter 861 Waving (two in one)

Because we have to visit two other schools today, Zhang Zhong and the others can't stay in Anping No. [-] Primary School for too long.

When it was almost noon, Zhang Zhong and the others offered to leave.

Liuhe and Cai Xianming enthusiastically kept Zhang Zhong here for dinner.

"Ms. Zhang, it's time for dinner. Let's go after dinner. No matter how busy you are, you still have to eat." Cai Xianming said with a smile.

Zhang Zhong waved his hand, "Don't bother, let's talk about the meal next time when we have a chance. Those who have worked hard today have been with me all the time. Your time is much more precious than mine."

"Mr. Zhang, it's just a light meal. If you're afraid of corruption, why not eat it at No. [-] Elementary School, which also has a cafeteria," Liu He said.

"Forget it. Now it's time to eat, let the children go back to eat. If there are students who are far away, let them stay at school to eat, so we won't add burden to the cafeteria."

……

In the end, Zhang Zhong did not stay in Wuping for dinner, but went directly to Wangcang, Guangyuan.

It was already one o'clock in the afternoon when we arrived in Wangcang, and the group ate something casually in the county, and then drove directly to the first school they were going to visit in Wangcang—the only elementary school in Waving Village—waving hands primary school.

When they arrived at Waishou Village, no senior county officials or county magistrates came to receive them, but apart from the principal of the school, all cadres, large and small, from the village were also present.

There are three or four reporter cats around.

This lineup is much smaller than Anping.

When Zhang Zhong and the others got out of the car, a group of people came up.

There were three people in the lead, a young man in the front, and two older people behind the young man.

The three walked up to Zhang Zhong, and the young man said with a smile, "Welcome Teacher Zhang Zhong to our Waishou Village. I am Lu Yangyang, the first secretary of our village, this is Zhang Guojun, the village party secretary, and this is from Waishou Primary School." Principal Yin Jiayang."

Zhang Zhong shook hands with the young first secretary in front of him, and then nodded to the village party secretary Zhang Guojun and the principal Yin Jiayang behind him.

In fact, he was still a little puzzled.

Although the first secretary is number one in front of him, he belongs to the cadres stationed in the village. He came by air and has no real power at all.

Under normal circumstances, not many people would listen to this kind of first secretary. If the village cadres like you, they may cooperate with you. If they don’t like you, the first secretary is just a report maker.

The first secretaries usually have the task of helping the poor, but the effect is a bit unsatisfactory. Many first secretaries come down to be gilded and then promoted to facilitate promotion.

But looking at the current situation, the young first secretary is still above the village party secretary.

Zhang Zhong looked at the Waving Primary School behind Lu Yangyang and the others. A long banner was hung on the door, which read: Warmly welcome the famous philanthropist Mr. Zhang Zhong to visit our school for inspection.

Seeing this banner, Zhang Zhong felt something was wrong, and then Lu Yangyang and the others led him to the school gate, and the children standing at the gate shouted in unison, "Welcome Teacher Zhang."

There is no "Welcome, welcome, warmly welcome", but the phrase "Welcome Teacher Zhang" still made Zhang Zhong frown.

He didn't expect that the Waving Village would give him this set.

Before coming here, he had read school and local materials, and found that Waishou Village is a poor village with a very poor local economy.

There are many migrant workers in the village, so there are very few local primary school students.

Before Waving Village was rebuilt, there were only fifteen students in this elementary school.

There are only fifteen students in six grades. On average, there are only two and a half students in one grade.

There is no point in donating to such a school, because there are no students, and even building a new school is a waste.

But then the County Education Bureau contacted the Youth Development Foundation, saying that they wanted to rebuild the Waishou Elementary School, and then integrate the students from several surrounding villages to build a new school.

The Youth Development Foundation passed the idea of ​​their county education bureau to Zhang Zhong's company, and finally the new Waving Primary School came into existence.

After the new primary school was built, students from other schools rushed over, and now there are many more students than before.

But there are more than before. In fact, there are only [-] students in the whole school now, with an average of more than a dozen students in a grade.

Moreover, the students are mainly concentrated in the upper grades, and the number of students in the lower grades is very small, which means that if the school cannot expand its student population, there will be fewer and fewer students in a few years, and it may eventually become the same as before.

When he saw this information, Zhang Zhong asked Chen Qing specifically, because he felt that such a school did not need to be funded, at least not a priority.

Later, Chen Qing told Zhang Zhong that when Waishue Primary School submitted the plan, it was estimated that several schools would be integrated and the number of schools would reach more than 300.

Zhang Zhong didn't blame Chen Qing. If he really wanted to hold him accountable, it would be because of the inaccurate plan submitted by Waishou Elementary School and the oversight of the Youth Foundation.

But having said that, if we donate school buildings to Waishou Primary School, there will be no big problem, at least their school buildings will be built, and there will be no corruption.

A bit of a waste at best.

Looking at the children standing at the door, Zhang Zhong said to Lu Yangyang, "Let the children go away, the sun is so bright, don't get burned."

"Mr. Zhang, you really care about the children." Lu Yangyang smiled and flattered, and then said to Yin Jiayang, "Principal Yin, let the students go away."

Yin Jiayang nodded, and then went to evacuate the children.

After the children dispersed, Zhang Zhong entered the school with Lu Yangyang and the others.

There is nothing to see in the school yard, probably because there are few people in the school, and some sports facilities look newer than those of Anping No. [-] Primary School.

Zhang Zhong and the others went directly to the school library.

Unlike Anping No. [-] Primary School, the books of Waving Primary School are only placed on the third floor.

This small detail makes Zhang Zhong feel bad. The school has three floors. In order to facilitate students to borrow books, it is best to put things like the library on the second floor, so that no matter which floor the students come to borrow books, they don’t need to borrow books. Go too far.

However, the principal Yin Jiayang also gave his own explanation, "The upstairs is full of senior students, and those who borrow books are also senior students, so we put the library on the third floor, and we may have to walk more It’s a few steps away, thank you for your trouble.”

Zhang Zhong could barely accept Yin Jiayang's explanation.

The library of Waishou Primary School is larger than that of Anping Primary School, about the size of an ordinary classroom, and there are more books in it.

Zhang Zhong asked a question that Li Qiuyun had asked before, "How does your library work? How do you borrow books?"

"Our library borrows books with book cards." Yin Jiayang said with a smile.

"Can you show me your library card?"

"Of course." Yin Jiayang nodded, and then found a card from the counter in the library.

Zhang Zhong took the card and looked at it. The card was very simple, about the size of a bank card.

One side is painted with waving school, and the other side is painted with some grids.

"What are these grids for?"

Zhang Zhong was a little confused about the usefulness of these grids, because these grids were so small that it was impossible to write the title of the book, and it was even difficult to write the complete date on it.

Yin Jiayang explained, "After students borrow books, we will draw a tick on their library cards, which proves that students have borrowed books once."

"Just a tick? What's the purpose?"

"Considering that some students will borrow books indiscriminately, we have stipulated the number of borrowing books. Each student can only borrow up to [-] books in a semester. There are [-] grids here, and they will be gone after drawing." Yin Jiayang said.

Hearing this rule, Zhang Zhong frowned again.

This approach of directly setting the upper limit sounds a little less encouraging for children to read.

"Does this kind of library card have a real name?" Zhang Zhong flipped through the library card several times. It was just an ordinary piece of thick paper, and there was no possibility of a real name, but he still asked Yin Jiayang for verification. one time.

"There is no real name, and our cards are sent directly to each student." Yin Jiayang said.

The answer was exactly as Zhang Zhong thought.

Zhang Zhong raised his own question, "Since there is no real name, does it mean that if a student's [-] grids are not enough, he can use other people's cards to borrow books?"

Yin Jiayang was stunned for a moment, and finally nodded, "That's right. Although we are afraid that students will borrow books indiscriminately, we also consider that some students may like to read more, and twenty books in one semester are not enough for them to read, so we have relaxed it." Rules. Those students who don’t have enough grids can borrow books from other students’ library cards, so that both sides can be taken care of.”

It's good that both sides can be taken care of. After listening to Yin Jiayang's explanation, Zhang Zhong almost burst out laughing.

Although this Yin family Yang is old, his brain is still relatively flexible and he is a bit quick-witted.

His stunned expression just now proved that he hadn't thought about this question at all before, and he didn't realize it until Zhang Zhong asked him, but he would soon be able to get it right.

Zhang Zhong didn't continue to ask, but instead asked, "Does every student have a library card?"

"Well, library cards are issued every semester, and everyone has one."

"How about the students borrowing books?"

Yin Jiayang said with a smile, "The students are very active, and sometimes the administrators in the library are too busy."

"Do you have a record of students borrowing books?" Zhang Chong asked.

"Of course there is, I'll show it to you right now." Yin Jiayang took a thick notebook from under the counter and handed it to Zhang Zhong.

This book is not light, and Zhang Zhong can feel it sinking when he holds it in his hand.

There are many records in it.

The pages of the book are similar to the booklets of Anping Primary School, with twenty records on one page.

The booklet of Anping Primary School has seven pages, but the booklet of Waving Primary School has more than 20 pages.

Nearly [-] loan and return records.

This means that students in Waving Elementary School have borrowed an average of five books each.

"It seems that the students are really active." Zhang Zhong said with a strange expression.

Yin Jiayang didn't notice the change in Zhang Zhong's expression, and continued to say: "Our school has always encouraged students to read extracurricular books. Sometimes the teachers will take the students to read books together, and the children are not interested in reading books. Very positive."

"It can be seen that the librarian of your school is very careful. This booklet is very well preserved, which is rare. This booklet has been turned over at least a thousand times. It is said that these pages in the front should be a little old, but it still looks like it now. It's quite new, and this should be the credit of the librarian. But since the students borrow a lot of books and the administrator is too busy, why don't you think about adding other administrators to share with the original administrator? I think these records are all It was made by one person, he must be very tired."

Speaking of which, Yin Jiayang already felt that something was wrong with Zhang Chong's mood.

"That's Mr. Zhang. In fact, we have three administrators who manage in shifts. However, the previous record book is quite confusing, and some books have been damaged. So a few days ago, for the sake of unification, I asked them to put the records in the previous book. The records were transcribed in new notebooks."

Looking at the little old man in front of him, Zhang Chong really wanted to laugh, but he didn't expect that he could make up for it.

"What about the previous booklet?"

"The previous booklet is a bit damaged. I don't know if the administrators are still there. How about I ask?"

Zhang Zhong waved his hand, "Forget it, don't bother, I see that some students here have borrowed a lot of books, can I talk to them?"

At this time, Lu Yangyang who was next to him came out and interrupted, "Mr. Zhang cares about the students, we all admire it, but today's weather is too hot, you and your companions haven't rested since you came here. Why don't we go to the office for a while, Drink some water, and then ask Principal Yin to find a few classmates to talk over there in the office?"

Zhang Zhong nodded with a smile, "Well, yes, then let's go to the office."

"Mr. Zhang, this booklet?" Yin Jiayang looked at the booklet in Zhang Zhong's hand and said, "I'm afraid some students will borrow books later, and they may need to use them."

"Oh, here you are." Zhang Zhong returned the booklet.

When he took the brochure, he could clearly see the Yin family Yang heaving a sigh of relief.

Zhang Zhong noticed his expression and just smiled without saying anything.

Everyone went to the office, drank tea, and chatted for a while, Zhang Zhong asked about the students again, and Yang from the Yin family brought a few students over.

"I randomly picked these students from different grades. If you have any questions, Mr. Zhang, just ask them."

Zhang Zhong looked at the four students in front of him, nodded, and asked, "What are your names, and what grade are you in?"

"My name is Li Ying, and I'm in the sixth grade."

"My name is Hu Jingya, I'm in the fifth grade."

……

After the students mentioned their names, Zhang Zhong looked at Li Ying and said with a smile, "You are Li Ying, Muzi Li, the clever Ying?"

"Well, yes." Li Ying nodded.

"I see from the book loan record that you borrowed a copy of "Quiet Autumn Leaves" last week. Have you finished reading it now?" Zhang Zhong asked with a smile.
