Chapter 2284: Marry Him If You Feel Grateful to Him
The doors of the training center opened and sunlight shone in through them. The teachers standing at the doors all widened their eyes.
This was a 500 square meter big hall. What was even more shocking was the neatly placed kitchenware.
The all metal cooktops that were giving off a bright silver gleam, were lined up neatly like soldiers.
The cooking bench, chopping bench, sink, utensils, pots and pans were all available. Furthermore, there was a knife rack on every chopping bench with three knives in it.
Everything was the same. They all came in a set and they filled up the entire great hall.
Meanwhile, there was a standalone kitchenware at the very front. It should be the teacher’s cooktop.
“Gulp.” Meli swallowed her saliva and asked with a shocked look, “Isn’t this awesome?!”
The other teachers had similar expressions. They were all shocked by what they saw.
“Will this be too extravagant for a classroom that teaches culinary skills?” a teacher asked softly.
The other teachers looked taken aback too.
…
Luna loudly said, “This is the training center built by Teacher Mag and he sponsored everything. I do not think that this is extravagant. Instead, this is professional.”
The teachers stopped their discussion after hearing that.
They had also heard many rumors about that Teacher Mag. They knew he was the best chef in Chaos City and he was also rich and kind.
It was naturally great for the Hope School’s students that he spent money to build a teaching building like this.
Then, Luna and the teachers went up to the second floor and visited several comprehensive classrooms.
The door to the teachers’ office on the third floor was still locked. Luna looked at the key in her hand. She didn’t bring them in for a look, instead, she declared the tour over and they would return for their morning meeting.
All of them looked through the Night Elves’ resumes during the morning meeting.
Everyone turned quiet halfway through.
A teacher said to Luna, “Principal, I think it isn’t suitable to select 20 of them.”
“I think so too.”
“Can’t we… take all of them?” a teacher asked seriously.
They were too outstanding!
This was everyone’s conclusion after they read the resumes.
Almost everyone was a talent on the giant name list that the Night Elves sent over.
Their average power had exceeded 6th-tier. Magic casters, knights, archers, pharmacists, healers, plant magic casters… they had every genre covered.
These were talents that were difficult for Hope School to recruit. At least, there were rarely talents like them among the teachers that they had recruited now.
Luna was also shocked by the Night Elves’ generosity. Even though she had heard about the Night Elves’ considerations from Mag, which was to improve the Night Elves’ overall quality after these people learned how to teach, she didn’t expect Princess Irina to send the best of the best talents from the Night Elves.
Luna nodded and said, “I think we can try to make them stay to the best of our capability. They will possibly stretch the upper limit of our Hope School after they get used to teaching. We can open a series of courses that we have set aside.”
The addition of these Night Elves was equivalent to bringing in powerful troops for Hope School. The benefits were obvious.
“We should treasure talents, but we are also choosing teachers for our children, so they need to have both talent and morals. I hope all of you teachers will interview them as per procedure and audit every teacher that will come in contact with the children seriously.” Luna added.
The teachers’ excited expression faded away as they nodded solemnly.
This interview lasted for the whole day and all 200 elves were interviewed. Results were released on the spot.
Apart from five of them who were deemed unfit to be teachers, all the elves passed the interview.
The elves sent by the Night Elves were way more outstanding than the terms listed simply in the resumes.
The elves’ long lifespans, smart brains and outstanding learning abilities made it easier for them to be teachers.
Meanwhile, humility was the main reason that people found them easy to get along with.
“We’ve got ourselves treasures,” an old teacher walked next to Luna and softly said, unable to hide her excited expression. “With this batch of talents joining us, our Hope School has gotten closer to the standard of Chaos School.”
Luna was also unable to hide the joy on her face as she smilingly said, “We still need you seniors to guide them along.”
That old teacher nodded and said, “You don’t have to remind us about that. We old fogeys have already discussed among ourselves. For the next three months, we’ll train them whenever there are no lessons to get them used to the classroom and learn how to be a real teacher as soon as possible.”
Luna walked out of the meeting room and gave some encouragement to the elves who had taken part in the interview, and welcomed them into Hope School, before making arrangements for the upcoming work.
The 20 recruitment quota was changed to 195 new intakes immediately, but before they got the recognition of the teachers’ judging panel, they needed to be trained first. They couldn’t start teaching immediately.
As for their salary, Luna decided to pay them the same salary as the other teachers.
Ashley, who led the team today, walked over and said to Luna, “Principal Luna, thank you for your trust in us, but we Night Elves don’t need to be paid. Save this sum of money for the children’s other expenses. You only need to provide us with three meals a day.”
“But…” Luna was hesitant.
“We came here to learn and the princess wanted to do something for the children too, so their salary will be paid by the textile factory.” Ashley explained with a smile.
Luna nodded thoughtfully before saying gratefully, “In this case, thank you all very much.”
The annual salary of 200 teachers was over 10,000,000 copper coins, which was, without a doubt, a huge sum for the school.
“You’re too courteous,” Ashley smilingly replied.
After a long day, the tired teachers went home after eating their dinner at the cafeteria.
Luna came out of the cafeteria. She looked at the evening clouds and Hope School, which looked golden under the sunset, and smiled.
“I didn’t expect my dream back then to come true so soon,” Luna murmured softly. Everything was ready, they just needed to welcome Hope School’s first batch of students two days later.
She could only use her meager pay to buy some food for the homeless children back then. She had also imagined that they could read and write in a clean environment like the children in Chaos School.
Now, this dream of hers was going to come true.
“How should I thank Mr. Mag? There would be no Hope School without him.” Luna looked at the Chef’s Training Center in a daze. Suddenly, a phrase that Vivian always said popped up in her mind, “Marry him if you feel grateful to him. How are you going to repay him when you don’t even have the determination to marry him?”
