202 【Bull Middle School】

"What conditions?"

Ma Shao: "Actually, there are no special conditions. The most important thing is that you have to stay here as a teacher for a long time and teach students from Apache."

After hearing this, Boole hesitated for a moment.

Although he is indeed an excellent teacher, the job he most wants to do is not to be a teacher, but to study mathematics.

Whether it is running a school or teaching, it is just a means for him to make a living. After all, he hopes to gain true freedom one day and be able to devote himself to academics without restraint.

What Ma Shao meant was that he hoped that he would serve as a teacher "for a long time", which inevitably made him hesitate.

However, he also knew that he had no choice now. His mother had to support him and his father was seriously ill. If Mashao could really offer a good price, it would undoubtedly be a timely help.

In fact, the horse whistler had no choice.

It is not easy to find a middle school teacher who satisfies him. So far, there is only one teacher, George Boole.

He hopes that his people can receive the best education. The ability of ordinary middle school teachers is obviously not enough.

People like Kelvin are capable enough, but they are not suitable to be middle school teachers, and it is impossible to become one.

Only George Boole had strong enough academic standards and taught middle school students all year round. He could be called a fighter among middle school teachers.

So Mashao will definitely come up with a price that satisfies Bull.

A few days later.

The "Boarding School for Young Gentlemen" has moved to new premises.

The new site used to be a farmer's manor and had been abandoned for a while, so it looked half-new but not old. Fortunately, it was spacious enough and cheap.

The total area is about fifteen hectares, and the price is only 3,500 pounds.

Although the architectural style is still not quite like a school, it is at least much more stylish than the previous small hotel-like building, and it can free up a large area for a playground.

In fact, the small building before was also Buell's home. He not only had to manage the school and teach students there, but also lived there and took care of his seriously ill father. It was really cramped.

The name of the school was also changed.

The new school gate clearly reads: Bull Middle School.

Looking at this name, Bull couldn't help but turned around and asked: "I still don't understand, why do you need to use my last name? I think your reputation is much greater than mine."

"You may not know what letters I have received." Ma Shao said, "The academic community is quite friendly to me - at least the physics community, but among the British people, there are more than one people who regard me as a barbarian.

two."

"If the name of the school is something like 'Ma Shao Middle School', which is difficult to pronounce and conspicuous in the eyes of the British, it will not be long before people start throwing rotten tomatoes at the school gate." After a pause, he added, "

Therefore, in order to minimize unnecessary trouble, this school is still yours in name, and in fact part of it is indeed yours."

For similar considerations and in order to maintain Buell's work enthusiasm, Mashao did not buy the school outright, but only became the majority shareholder.

The new venue needs to be renovated before it can be put into use. During this period, Mashao and Buer's work is mainly recruiting.

Apache will continue to send international students to the UK in the future, and the scale of Buell Middle School will naturally become larger and larger. It is far from enough to rely solely on Buell himself and his assistants.

There are two aspects to recruitment requirements, one is ability and the other is concept.

In terms of ability, Boole is mainly responsible for the inspection. All teachers who come to apply for the job must have their knowledge and teaching ability recognized by Boole before they can join the job.

In terms of concepts, it is completely reviewed by Mashao himself. After all, he prepared this school for Apache students. If the teacher is a white extreme racist or something like that, then he is asking for trouble. Who knows what will happen in the future?

What a moth.

As for the milder racists, Ma Shao thought about it and finally decided to recruit them.

After all, white people who have no racist ideas at all are really hard to find. They may be even rarer than white people who are reverse nationalists, or even impossible to find.

It’s okay to be a little biased, just think of it as vaccinating young students.

Ma Shao offers relatively high salaries to teachers. In fact, he has always been generous with his salaries, so there are many teachers who apply for jobs, enough for him to pick and choose.

He is not worried about losing money, and is even confident that he will build Buell Middle School into a famous school, which will not only play a good role as a "preparatory class" for Apache international students, but also attract rich white students, and make money by the way.

It is also because the West lacks the culture of being a question writer, and there is no such thing as a national unified college entrance examination. Otherwise, Mashao will soon make the whole British people experience the cruelty of entering a higher education.

In his spare time, Ma Shao would discuss mathematical problems with Boole.

Since Bull had already signed an agreement to work for Ma Shao on a long-term basis, Ma Shao was much more generous and often hinted at things about the future in conversations, and sometimes a single sentence could make Bull feel in a trance.

Bull originally thought that he might not have many opportunities to engage in academics in the future, but now he was surprised to realize that the best way to engage in academics might be... to follow the horse whistle.

Ma Shao has been really busy for a while.

What he didn't expect was that even though he had gone to the countryside, he would still be visited by people.

Fortunately, the person who visited him this time was not an annoying guy, but a frequent visitor in middle school textbooks—Amodio Avogadro.

That's Avogadro's constant.

His theory was recognized and developed by later generations, but at present, there are many voices opposing him.

As the saying goes, it's hard to find a true friend. Ma Shao publicly supported his molecular hypothesis at Cambridge University and later published a paper elaborating on it in detail. This caused the Italian scientist, who was over 70 years old, to travel thousands of miles to the UK to visit in person and express his hatred for each other.

Late love.

"I have read all the conjectures in "Holy Questions". Although it covers such a wide range of fields and I can't understand many of them, I can still feel the profound physical insights." Although Avogadro is over 70,

Years old, but looking energetic, he said enthusiastically.

Horse Whistle: "Mr. Avogadro, how long do you think it will take for all these conjectures to be resolved?"

Avogadro thought for a moment: "Fifty years?"

Ma Shao smiled: "I also hope it will be fifty years, but it is more likely to be one hundred or even two hundred years."

Most of the conjectures and questions in "Holy Questions" have not been resolved until the 21st century. Even if Mashao tries his best to promote science in this world, fifty years will definitely not be enough.

"Maybe." Avogadro seemed optimistic.

He changed the topic: "There will be a celebration for Gauss soon. I wonder if you are willing to participate. I think you should be able to meet many outstanding scholars there."

"If there is a chance." Ma Shao hesitated.

He may not need to attend this event, or even deliberately interact with any scientists. After all, he has already obtained his ticket to the academic world, and his purpose has been achieved.

"So you're not going to Europe?" Avogadro said.

Ma Shao shook his head: "I will definitely go to Europe, but not for academic exchange."

ps: Regarding the money issue in this chapter. Historically, Darwin bought a manor with a seven-hectare garden for more than 2,000 pounds. As for how much money the protagonist gave Boole... I don’t know how much is appropriate, maybe a few hundred

Pounds.
