After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

Chapter 2436: Recruit Teachers

In the past, it was always Qiao Mei who urged everyone to go into business and find more ways to earn money. It seemed to be the other way round nowadays. People came to urge Qiao Mei to set things in motion quickly before she missed out on good opportunities to earn money! They all wanted Qiao Mei to lead them onto the path to become rich.

Qiao Mei quickly pulled Tang Hui to one side and said, “These people are all experts in their fields. I won’t be able to hire so many teachers. How do I reject any of them without offending someone!”

“I’ve already told them that you’re not hiring for long-term positions. You can hire them on a short-term basis first. Rotate their classes among the students so that the kids can learn from different perspectives!” Tang Hui said.

“That’s a good idea!” Qiao Mei said admiringly.

However, there were at least 100 teachers in the courtyard. It would be a huge task to interview them one by one. Qiao Mei felt tired just thinking about it.

In the end, Qiao Mei decided on 12 teachers. They were mainly quite young and a few were from famous schools, but they had not been teaching long enough and needed to gain more experience.

Qiao Mei stood in front of the group of people in the courtyard and said, “Dear all, thank you for your time. The interview is over. I will be asking a few more people to join us when we schedule the classes for specific topics. I’ll visit the shortlisted teachers personally to provide you with the details. Everyone, thank you for coming!”

Qiao Mei arranged for Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang to send the more elderly teachers home. The day was finally over. She could feel a headache coming on as she looked at the pile of documents in her hand.

“How is it? Isn’t it interesting to run a school?” Tang Hui asked happily.

“Why are you so happy when I say that I want to start a school? You’re not pregnant now, are you?” Qiao Mei asked.

“I’m going to quit my job! I’m coming over to work at your school!” Tang Hui said boldly as she put her arm around Qiao Mei’s shoulder.

Qiao Mei widened her eyes and looked at Tang Hui as she said, “Quit your job! You’re a teacher in a famous school in the capital and the school thinks highly of you. Why do you want to quit your job? I don’t even know if I can get this school off the ground!”

“I know that, but I don’t think that my current school is suitable for me. I prefer to channel my hard work to your school. The money I make from the test papers is enough for my living expenses. It doesn’t matter even if I don’t teach at that school,” Tang Hui said.

Tang Hui made quite a lot of sense. Qiao Mei did not have the kind of experience Tang Hui had in the education field. Qiao Mei could be the principal and let Tang Hui be the vice-principal in charge of all the administrative matters. If there was really no other way, she could also get Third Uncle to come and work in the school. After all, Third Uncle was already advanced in age and it would be tough for him to go on missions in the army. It might be better for him to come and teach physical fitness classes at her school. She just did not know if Grandfather would agree to this idea.

“Do as you deem fit. I still need to settle the issue of hiring the teachers. You can take charge of all other matters,” Qiao Mei said.

“No problem!” Tang Hui said happily.

“I’ll talk to you about your salary later. I’ll get Yao Nian to send you a bank card later. It’ll be topped up with the funds that the school needs. You can decide on how you want to use the money,” Qiao Mei said.

“I have money! I can pay first! You can reimburse me based on the receipts!” Tang Hui said.

“Forget it, that’s too troublesome. Just use my money. It’s a deal.” Qiao Mei sighed and said, “All of you are really proactive about earning money now. Once classes start at the school, my mother-in-law will probably want to come here to give dance lessons. After all, she has already handed all her work at the military art troupe over to Xia He.”

“That’s great! It’s best if you can gather everyone! Gather everyone who has spare time! Then they can all make some money!” Tang Hui said.

This idea was indeed not bad. Qiao Mei had only intended to run a normal school, but perhaps she could also start a technical school? This way, she would be able to provide talents for various industries.

“You’re right. Let’s do it.” However, Qiao Mei no longer had any more energy to think about these things today. She just wanted to return to her room and go to bed.

The next day, Qiao Mei gathered the children for a meeting to talk about their education. The three children were very obedient and went along with her arrangements.

“You can voice your opinions anytime,” Qiao Mei said as she looked at the children tenderly.

“Mama, when will school start?” Xia Fan asked seriously.

“It will take at least another five months. For now, Mama can hire a tutor so that you can study at home or I can also send you to study with your father,” Qiao Mei said.

“Then can we go back to our school to finish this semester first? We want to play with our friends,” Xia Fan said.

Qiao Mei did not consider this aspect. She thought that the siblings only spent time with one another and did not mingle much with other children.
