When old friends meet, they must catch up with the past, and it's not yet time to eat, so let's go to the bar to sit down.
After two glasses of beer, Li Mu finally knew what was going on.
After Oliveira returned to Hartford, the capital of Connecticut, he reported to Connecticut Director of Education Nosob, about Li Mu's donation.
As Oliveira said, Nosob is worried about funding, and this is not only a problem for the Connecticut Department of Education, but also for all state departments in the United States, and even the federal Bureau of Education in Washington, D.C.
Li Mu's donation helped the Connecticut Education Bureau a lot, you must know that before that, Nosobh was even unable to pay the salaries of the employees of the Connecticut Education Bureau, which made Nosob, the director of education, quite tormented.
With Li Mu's donation, Nosob can not only be used to pay the salaries of his employees, but also to improve some work facilities, which makes the employees of the Connecticut Department of Education look new and the working environment, for which Nosob was commended by the U.S.
Federal Education Bureau.
Since he benefited from Li Mu's donation, then it is reasonable and reasonable for Nosob to express it to Li Mu.
However, when Nosobh and Oliveira found Old Man Chen of the Young Children's Overseas Career Bureau, Old Man Chen flatly denied it, saying that there was no such person as "Reem" in the Young Children's Overseas Vocational Bureau, which made Nosob and Oliveira worried, and they ran to Springfield three times in a row without results.
If Li Mu can't be found this time, it is estimated that Oliveira will give up, and Li Mu's donation is a pie falling from the sky.
"We're not here to make trouble, but to express our gratitude, I really don't know why your officials rejected us, I have here a handwritten letter from Mr.
Governor to you, take this, you can go to the university you want to go to at will, Harvard, Yale, MIT, whatever."
Nosobb expressed anger at what happened to him during this time, originally Connecticut was also one of the options for young children to go abroad, just for this reason, Nosob refused Old Man Chen's request, and the second batch of children did not accept any of them.
Even if Li Mu can't be found, Nosob doesn't plan to accept anyone, whether it's the third or fourth batch, not a single one.
The Qing Empire's "Keeping Children" plan only had four batches, each with 30 people, for a total of 120 people.
Now both the first and second batches have arrived in the United States, and in another month it will be the third, then the fourth.
Holding the letter from the governor of Connecticut, Li Mu thought that if he had gotten the letter a month ago, maybe Li Mu could have cooperated with Harvard University instead of going to MIT.
It's not bad now, even if Harvard University cooperates with Li Mu, it is estimated that Li Muruo will not be treated like this to MIT.
"Reem, is there any conflict between you and your officials?"
Oliveira asked tentatively.
From the beginning of the train, Oliveira found out that Li Mu and the officials of the Young Children Overseas Rehabilitation Bureau did not have a good relationship, and now it is only further confirmed.
"It's not good, I've become an American citizen, so in their eyes, I'm a complete traitor."
Li Mu laughed at himself helplessly.
If you have a choice, Li Mu really doesn't want to become an American citizen, but there is no way, living in this era, Li Mu wants to find a strong enough backer, and the Qing Empire is obviously not a good option.
"It's great that you're a U.S. citizen," Oliveira exclaimed, the expression on his face not like a fake.
If Li Mu joins the American nationality, then the bad relationship with the young child who went abroad can be understood, of course, Oliveira does not think this is a "betrayal", the United States is originally a country of immigrants, Oliveira is not a pure American, Oliveira understands this as a yearning for the civilized world, and is sincerely happy for Li Mu.
"Speaking of the Education Bureau, can I ask you for a favor."
Li Mu thought about the school, and suddenly blessed his soul.
"Absolutely" "Willing to serve" Nosob and Oliveira said in unison.
"I have a factory here, and I want to run a school for the children of workers, but you know, it is not easy to run a school, school buildings, teachers, teaching materials, etc., there is a lot of work to do, I can solve the problem of school buildings and teaching materials, but the problem of teachers cannot be solved, if you can, can you help me find a few teachers in primary school" Li Mu hit this idea.
Nosob and Oliveira are both officials of the Connecticut Department of Education, although the Connecticut Department of Education has no jurisdiction over Connecticut schools, but they must be aware of the relevant news, as long as Nosob and Oliveira are willing to help, it is not a problem to find a few teachers.
"Do you want to run a school in Connecticut or in Massachusetts," Nosobh wanted to know more.
"Right here in Springfield, I can provide housing for teachers, and the salary package can be increased by 50 percent on the original basis, with only one requirement, the work must be done well, and the students must be treated seriously and responsibly."
Li Mu didn't ask for much, and the treatment he gave was very good.
"Then someone will rush to do this job, to be honest, you don't need to give so much, teaching and educating people is a teacher's duty, don't worry about whether they will do their duty, I promise to find you a few experts to come."
Nosob should come down in one bite, and this little favor can still help.
"That's great, you've done me a great favor."
Li Mu raised his glass to Nosob.
The lunch meal was a great meal, and Will still had a good face in Springfield, and invited a few officials from the Massachusetts Department of Education to come over, which made Nosobh and Oliveira eat very happily.
Later, Li Mu went to visit Old Man Chen again and wanted to ask Old Man Chen to help find a Chinese teacher.
Li Mu had a closed door this time, and Old Man Chen didn't even show Li Mu a face, it seemed that he was completely prepared to draw a line with Li Mu.
This is also normal, if Li Mu is old man Chen, it is estimated that he will not have a good face, and maybe he will do even better.
Since Old Man Chen can't work here, Li Mu won't force it, without Butcher Zhang, Li Mu won't eat hairy pigs, as long as he has dollars in his hand, Li Mu can hire people casually, but it's a little troublesome, it's best to send someone to the Qing Empire.
This is not very realistic at present, Li Mu does not have the ability to extend his tentacles to the Qing Empire, and the school's demand for Chinese teachers is not very urgent, as long as it is in place within a year or two, so Li Mu still has time.
In fact, from the standpoint of Chinese Americans, Chinese people should try their best to learn Western culture in order to better integrate into American society.

Li Mu also doesn't plan to train all Chinese children to be "Xiucai", as long as they understand Chinese culture, they won't be assimilated, Li Mu doesn't want to teach a group of banana people who can't speak Chinese when they practice Chinese, and they must have at least basic reading and writing skills
