Chapter 886 885 [Wen Yiduo VS Liu Wendian—Real Person PK]

No matter what, teachers can’t make enough money from their salary alone.

Take Mei Yiqi for example. According to his wife Han Yonghua’s recollection: “In 1939, the monthly salary could support the family for three weeks, but later it was barely enough for half a month. The family often ate white rice mixed with chili peppers, without vegetables. Occasionally they could eat it. We served spinach and tofu soup and everyone was very happy.”

Even the principal's family is in such a difficult situation, let alone ordinary teachers, who can only go to restaurants and drink with their past savings.

In the cafeteria, Mei Yiqi invited Zhou Hexuan to go home to eat stir-fried stir-fries, which was just a shame. If Zhou Hexuan really agrees to attend the banquet, it is estimated that one meal can cover the food expenses of Principal Mei's family for a week.

Mrs. Mei, Han Yonghua, was originally unemployed. In order to support her family, she combined the local rice noodle recipes in Kunming to create a Jiangsu and Zhejiang-style rice noodle bowl cake to sell. This cake is called "Dingsheng Cake", which means certain victory in the Anti-Japanese War.

Even though Wen Yiduo is living a comfortable life now, in two years his savings will be used up and he will have no choice but to make money by carving seals for others. Zhu Ziqing and Jin Yuelin have no money to buy vegetables, so they can only open up wasteland to grow vegetables for their own consumption, and sometimes help their colleagues.

Mei Yiqi was really confused. Of course he wanted to give subsidies to teachers. As long as subsidies are given to teachers, he, the principal, can also receive a share, and at least he can eat vegetables every meal.

However, there is an annual limit for the Geng funds. Not only are they used to send students to study in the United States, but those already studying in the United States also rely on the Geng funds for funding. There are still many daily expenses at Southwest Associated University that need to be solved with Geng funds. Geng funds cannot be used until it is absolutely necessary.

Historically, Shen Lu, the general secretary of the Southwest Associated University, quickly gave up his job, and Zheng Tianting was pushed to take over. After being pushed hard by Zheng Tianting, Mei Yiqi finally agreed to give money, providing a sufficient monthly subsidy so that the teachers could breathe.

Unexpectedly, living allowances could not keep up with rising prices, and professors became thinner and thinner as they taught, leading to rumors that teachers went on a collective hunger strike to request a salary increase.

Just when Mei Yiqi was hesitant, Zhou Hexuan suddenly asked: "Each teacher is given a subsidy of 100 yuan, how much does it cost per month?"

Mei Yiqi said: "The total number of professors, lecturers and teaching assistants is over one hundred."

Zhou Hexuan said: "In other words, it only costs more than 10,000 yuan per month?"

Mei Yiqi smiled bitterly: "Mr. Zhou put it lightly, that's more than 100,000 yuan a year. Where can I get so much money?"

Wen Yiduo said from the side: "It can't be calculated like this. Subsidies can be given according to levels. The monthly subsidy for teaching assistants is 40 yuan, the subsidy for lecturers is 60 yuan, the subsidy for associate professors is 80 yuan, and the subsidy for professors is 100 yuan. In this way, it does not cost more than 10,000 yuan. . Tsinghua University has so much Geng Geng money, it can easily be solved with tens of thousands of dollars a year."

Mei Yiqi said his mantra like Grandet: "Probably or maybe, I'm afraid not necessarily."

Everyone rolled their eyes and didn't want to talk to Principal Mei anymore.

Zhou Hexuan suddenly said: "I will pay for the teachers' living allowance."

Everyone looked at him in surprise, including the wild male classmate who had just finished his meal. Mei Yiqi was even more embarrassed and said: "This... how can this cost Mr. Zhou money? The Ministry of Education cannot let you personally contribute money."

"I am a big capitalist, haha," Zhou Hexuan said with a smile, "How about this, I remit 100,000 yuan every month, and the rest will be reserved for school funds. If prices rise in the future, I will also increase remittances as appropriate, and try my best to Don’t let everyone go hungry while giving lectures.”

Mei Yiqi held Zhou Hexuan's hand excitedly: "Mr. Zhou, I really... don't know what to say."

Zhou Hexuan joked: "Just don't say 'probably or maybe, I'm afraid not necessarily'."

"Hahahaha..." Everyone laughed heartily.

While laughing, everyone was deeply touched. This is equivalent to Zhou Hexuan spending millions of yuan in subsidies every year. And as prices rise, more and more money will be spent, and ordinary capitalists will definitely be wiped out.

Zhou Hexuan doesn't care. He has built so many factories and acquired so much real estate in Sichuan, which is enough to meet the living allowance of teachers at Southwest Associated University.

Liu Wendian clapped his hands and praised: "If all Chinese capitalists are like Mingcheng, why worry about the country not being strong or the lack of education?"

Wen Yiduo seemed to dislike Liu Wendian and said with unabashed sarcasm: "No matter how much the subsidy is, it won't be enough for you to eat opium."

"Why does my taking opium bother you? It doesn't cost you any money!" Liu Wendian was furious.

Wen Yiduo also said angrily: "If you smoke in your own home and no one cares, if you smoke in front of the students in the classroom, it is a heinous crime! China has declined to its current situation, and opium is the most harmful thing!"

Liu Wendian retorted: "It is a heinous crime for me to smoke opium in the classroom, so what if you smoke cigarettes in the classroom? Not only do you smoke by yourself, but you also smoke with the students during class. I did not smoke opium with the students!" "

"Can cigarettes and opium be compared with each other? It's simply unreasonable!" Wen Yiduo's face turned red with anger.

Liu Wendian smiled and said: "They are both smoking, so why are they different?"

Wen Yiduo chuckled: "Someone not only smoked opium in class, but also asked the school to arrange a handyman for him to carry a teapot to make water for him. Those who didn't know better thought he was a wealthy landlord. How could he look like a dignified university professor? Southwest Associated University I shouldn’t hire you as a teacher!”

Liu Wendian also chuckled: "My knowledge is worth that price. What do you think Shen Congwen is? He can be a professor at the United Nations University, why can't I!"

Shen Congwen, who was chatting with students in a cemetery a few hundred meters away, suddenly sneezed...

Both of them had bad tempers, and the verbal conflict quickly escalated into a fist fight. Mei Yiqi quickly called on the professors to step forward and drag them away.

I won’t go into details about Wen Yiduo, he is flammable, explosive, and a person who defies the sky, the earth, and the air. And Liu Wendian was even more awesome. It was rumored that he once kicked Lao Jiang in the crotch in public, and Lao Jiang was so angry that he called him a madman.

At that time, Liu Wendian was the president of Anhui University. Chiang Kai-shek went to inspect him. Seeing his slovenly appearance, he asked, "Are you Liu Wendian?"

Liu Wendian was very unhappy and asked, "Are you Chang Kaishen?"

Chang Kaishen said: "The Communist Party exists in Anhui University, and its influence is very bad. Those students who are on strike must be severely punished."

Liu Wendian said: "I only have teachers and students here, and I don't know who the Communist Party is. You are the commander-in-chief, and you lead your troops; I am the president of the university, and I am responsible for the school's affairs."

Chang Kaishen was furious, pointed at Liu Wendian's nose and said, "You're a scholar!"

Liu Wendian also pointed at Chang Kaishen's nose: "You warlord!"

Chang Kaishen added: "The teaching is not strict and the teachers are lazy. Students destroyed the girls' school at night and undermined the order of the Northern Expedition. It is you, a school tyrant, who is running rampant. If you are not dismissed and investigated, we will be disrespectful to the spirit of the former Prime Minister (Sun Yat-sen) in heaven!"

Liu Wendian said: "Speaking of the former Prime Minister, when he and I were making revolution in Tokyo, I didn't know your name at all. Although young students are in their prime, they are not mature and rational. They cannot be treated as if they are thirty. Don't make a big deal out of trivial matters. "

The two of them talked and became more and more tense. Liu Wendian suddenly rushed up and kicked Lao Jiang in the crotch. Well, the rumors of kicking the crotch were probably apocryphal, but the previous conversations were definitely true.

It is a well-known fact that Liu Wendian looked down on Shen Congwen. He once told his students in class: "If you want to talk about professors, Chen Yinke can get one yuan, Liu Wendian gets ten cents, and Shen Congwen can only be worth one penny."

Once when the school was bombed, Liu Wendian and his students were running to protect Chen Yinke. On the way, they met Shen Congwen who was also running to alert the police. Liu Wendian immediately cursed: "If I was killed by the bomb, there would be no one to teach Zhuangzi to the students. Why are you, Shen Congwen, running away?"

Shen Congwen was so confused by the scolding that he didn't bother to argue with this lunatic, so he pretended not to hear and ran away.

In four years, Wen Yiduo would propose to dismiss Liu Wendian. After some debate, Mei Yiqi agreed, and Liu Wendian could only leave Southwest Associated University in despair - and then went to Yunnan University, where the salary was higher.

Mainly because Liu Wendian went too far at that time. He left school without permission and went to Poole to smoke cigarettes. The reason was that the opium in Poole was of top quality. He left his students behind for more than half a year. He only said hello to a few friends and never formally asked for leave. This made Wen Yiduo, the head of the Chinese Department, so angry that he wanted to kill someone.

At this time, Zhou Hexuan saw Wen Yiduo and Liu Wendian performing a full martial arts show, and he couldn't laugh or cry. He said that the teacher's subsidies were good, so why did they start fighting?

At the same time, in the forest cemetery in the distance, a student asked about Zhou Hexuan. Shen Congwen said: "Speaking of Zhou Mingcheng, he and I are old friends..."
