Volume 1: Student Life Chapter 84: Two No.1 Scholars in One School
After leaving school, a few people discussed and found a private restaurant in Maochang Town.
When the boss heard that several students came to check their scores, he suddenly became much more enthusiastic.
When the boss heard that several students had done well in the exam, with a score of at least 650+, he immediately offered to send them drinks.
When the boss heard that two of the students had scored 727 points, he immediately said that the meal was free.
However, the boss made the decision to waive the bill only after Wang Xuehui arrived.
When Chen Zhou and a few others were chatting in the private room about which school to apply for, Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi's cell phones rang almost at the same time.
Chen Zhou’s caller ID shows “Teacher Xu Shaowen”.
Yang Yiyi’s caller ID shows “Teacher Wang Xuehui”.
The two looked at each other and answered the phone.
As soon as Chen Zhou answered the call, he heard the voice on the other end: "Chen Zhou? I'm Xu Shaowen."
Chen Zhou replied: "Hello, Teacher Xu, what's the matter? Is there anything?"
Xu Shaowen said hurriedly: "Chen Zhou, have you checked it? If you haven't checked it, check it quickly!"
Chen Zhou: "Teacher Xu, I checked it this morning."
Upon hearing this, Xu Shaowen immediately said, "727 points, Chen Zhou, you have successfully broken the record of the highest score of the top science student in Anhui Province in 2004, and created a new history in the Anhui Province college entrance examination. The teacher only wants to say one thing, awesome!"
"Uh..." After hearing this, Chen Zhou didn't know how to respond.
Xu Shaowen didn't care. He continued, "By the way, have you been at home recently? I tell you, you have to be prepared. Major universities are coming to you to snatch people away..."
"Teacher Xu, I'm not at home for the time being. I'm here at school. I made an appointment with Yang Yiyi, Zhang Yifan and others to come to school today to get together and check the scores together." Chen Zhou replied honestly.
Xu Shaowen: "What? Yang Yiyi is with you too? Are you guys in school now? Give me your location and I'll go find you guys right away."
"Yes, Yang Yiyi is here too. However, we are not in school now. We are having dinner in a restaurant. Teacher Xu, do you want to come over? We will wait for you. This location is..." Chen Zhou then reported the location of the restaurant to Xu Shaowen.
Xu Shaowen wrote down the address Chen Zhou gave him, and then said, "No, no, since it's a student dinner, I won't join in the fun. I'll come find you after you finish eating."
Chen Zhou said he would contact me later and hung up the phone.
However, before the call was hung up, there was some noise from Xu Shaowen's side.
Chen Zhou first told a few people about Xu Shaowen's visit, then looked at Yang Yiyi and asked, "Did Teacher Wang also talk to you about checking your scores?"
"Yes." Yang Yiyi nodded, "Teacher Wang will be here soon..."
After all the dishes were served, when the boss was confirming the drinks, several people just threw away the beer they had ordered and replaced it with Coke.
The teacher came over soon, and it was not appropriate for him to be drunk.
Also, because the teacher was coming over soon, Chen Zhou and the others no longer had any dining atmosphere.
Chen Zhou thought about it and said that he would have to come to school and they could get together then.
Several people expressed no objection.
When they were almost done eating, Chen Zhou called Xu Shaowen.
Then, as they walked out of the private room and down the stairs, they saw Xu Shaowen and Wang Xuehui.
However, what Chen Zhou did not expect was that there were far more than just teachers Xu Shaowen and Wang Xuehui coming.
There was also Principal Zhu and two teachers Chen Zhou didn't know.
Chen Zhou thought, it shouldn't be necessary, such a big event...
What Chen Zhou hadn't expected was that the emergence of two top scorers in science would mean a huge amount to Maochang High School.
He and Yang Yiyi were the first, no, the only two top scorers in the history of Maochang High School.
All of a sudden, the reputation of Maochang High School will rise to a higher level and become one of the top universities.
It was natural that the restaurant owner knew Principal Zhu, but he had never seen Principal Zhu personally come out to look for students, especially those who had already taken the college entrance examination.
He couldn't help but feel a little surprised. Is there anything special about these classmates?
After Principal Zhu and others spoke, he finally reacted when he heard the word "top scholar".
When Zhang Yifan came to pay the bill, the restaurant owner quietly asked, "Classmate, did you really produce a top scorer among them?"
Zhang Yifan looked back at Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi, then said to the boss, "Those two people next to Principal Zhu are both top scorers, and they have the same score."
"Holy crap?! You guys are awesome this year, two top scorers at once?" The boss took another look and exclaimed, "The key is not just the top scorers, you guys all got such high scores, awesome!"
Zhang Yifan smiled and said, "Boss, please quickly calculate the meal cost and express your feelings later."
The boss immediately waved his hand and said, "Two top scholars have come to eat at our restaurant. This is a blessing for my restaurant. I can't charge you for the meal. I'll waive it for you."
Seeing that the boss was unwilling to accept the money, Zhang Yifan quickly said, "How can that be possible? Boss, you run a store and do business, so how can you not charge money..."
However, no matter how hard Zhang Yifan tried to persuade him, the boss just refused to accept it.
The boss said that Maochang High School hadn’t produced a number one scholar in these years, and the first time a number one scholar came, he came to eat at his restaurant. If he still charged money, how could he open a restaurant in Maochang Town if it got out to others…
Chen Zhou and his friends had been waiting for a long time and noticed the movement here.
Finally, Xu Shaowen came out and persuaded the boss to accept the money, as it was money that brought with it the joy of winning the first place in the imperial examination.
The boss finally agreed to take the money, but asked for a discount.
Just break a bone...
After paying the money, Chen Zhou and his companions followed Principal Zhu and others back to Maochang High School.
Principal Zhu ordered Zhang Yifan, Chen Haining and Li Xiang to be brought to the small conference room and asked Xu Shaowen to give them guidance on the application process.
Then, Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi were taken to the principal's office.
It can be seen that Principal Zhu is very happy. During his tenure, he has been able to train two top students , and he is already satisfied.
So much so that later, when the media interviewed Principal Zhu, he was proud of two things: one was that he built Maochang High School, and the other was that he trained a group of students like Chen Zhou.
Principal's office.
Principal Zhu, Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi were happily chatting about study, life and applying to colleges.
Wang Xuehui, and two other teachers were there to accompany him.
In fact, these two teachers are the vice-principal in charge of academic affairs and the grade director of the repeater class.
When talking about which university Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi were going to apply to and what majors they were going to choose, Principal Zhu said that if they had any difficulties or were unfamiliar with any majors, they could consult the school teachers.
The vice principal also nodded and said that he would let their class teacher, Wang Xuehui, tutor them throughout the process.
Wang Xuehui said it was no problem and his phone was available 24 hours a day.
Finally, Principal Zhu told the two that the school would give them an additional reward in the form of bonuses to thank them for bringing back the title of top student for Maochang High School.
Chen Zhou was not surprised by this. There were many schools in society that rewarded students who achieved outstanding results in the college entrance examination.
Chen Zhou was just wondering how much money he would get as a reward and whether it could offset the expenses of repeating the year.
