After a long exchange between the teacher and the student, Professor Smith finally figured out what happened.

Although he tried his best to deny it, his student still looked like he knew everything.

"Keep a low profile, keep a low profile, I understand, teacher... this kind of hard relationship really can't be too high-profile."

"No, I'm a teacher, where does the relationship come from? Your senior, who is the most promising, is now just a middle-level official, and this is the biggest background for a teacher." Professor Smith wanted to explain it clearly.

Others don't know, but he doesn't know it himself?

But in the end, he found that he couldn't explain it clearly, this is the first time in the world!

Could it be... I really have some relationship that I haven't discovered?

Could it be that the dead father is a hidden big shot?

The student closed his mouth, but his eyes were clearly full of "I understand, I understand everything."

God knows how Professor Smith saw the words in his eyes.

Suppressing his surprise and suspicion, Professor Smith continued the class, but he couldn't help it halfway through.

Go to class, I'm going to be an official.

Professor Smith didn't even take the book and just left.

Not everyone can be indifferent to power.

It's true that the professors at Hadley University are very respectable, but they are just teachers after all. At most, they dominate a research project and can control tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of gold coins.

But those gold coins are not their own, so they can't be greedy.

For more professors, a project worth a few thousand gold coins a year is enough to make them happy.

But what is the status of the director of the Power Department?

This is a serious department-level official of the Great Xia Empire. Even if we don't talk about the future development prospects, he would not change this status even if it was replaced by a president.

Smith walked to the office building, and the news that he was appointed as the director of the Power Department had spread.

After confirming that it was not fake news, the temperature of the entire office building rose by three degrees.

It's not that everyone is breathing in the cool air, it's purely restless.

This is the highest-level official who has come out of Hadley University so far, and he holds real power.

It seems that the future of the academic school is shining.

Professor Smith just walked into the office building and "accidentally" met the beautiful lecturer in the office.

"Director Smith, are you back from class?"

The other party greeted Smith warmly, and he felt awkward with the enthusiasm.

You know, Smith was not so popular before, otherwise he would not have remained single for many years after the divorce.

Professors at Hadley University are glorious, but only they know the pain.

The people they usually come into contact with are all the powerful and wealthy classes of the empire, but in terms of actual status and wealth, they are completely different classes.

It can only be said that the academic tycoons have not yet risen, and the academic school still needs to work hard.

Just when Professor Smith was a little uncomfortable being entangled by the enthusiastic female colleagues, the secretary of the president squeezed in to help him out.

"Go away, let's see what you look like. Do you still have the character of a teacher?" The secretary of the president righteously scolded everyone, then turned to look at Professor Smith, showing a gentle smile like spring breeze: "Director Smith, please follow me, President Delong invites you to come over."

Smith experienced the fickleness of the world in a short time.

Fortunately, he is not a young man who has just started out, otherwise he would not be able to grasp it.

Reluctantly suppressing his joy, Professor Smith followed the secretary to the outside of the principal's office.

While the secretary was reporting, he adjusted his expression and mentality.

Although the real power in the hands of the president of Hadley University may not be comparable to that of the director of the Electricity Department.

But the other party is a big man who can meet His Majesty the Emperor. As Hadley University students gradually rise to high positions, their influence is increasing day by day.

Smith, who has slightly changed his mentality, must maintain respect even for utilitarian considerations.

If he wants to get involved in official career in the future, he also needs the support of the school.

The academic school, even if it is weak now, can provide a large number of grassroots officials. These are the specific executors. Whoever wants to do something cannot do without the support of these grassroots officials.

After the secretary finished reporting, Smith walked in under the guidance of the other party.

"President!!"

"Sit down, I just got the news that His Majesty personally appointed you as the director of the Electricity Department, so I called you to give you a few words."

President Delong is young and strong, and is at the best age of energy.

Smith sat opposite him and felt inexplicable pressure.

"Thank you for your concern, President. I was also surprised. I really didn't expect such a good thing to happen to me." Smith expressed his feelings truthfully.

He really had no psychological preparation. He was teaching and doing research, how could he suddenly become an official?

But he was a smart man who stood out from thousands of scholars after all, and he quickly figured out the clues.

Good luck comes suddenly, and you have to grasp it.

At least for now, the school is reliable.

He needs the support of the school, and the school also needs someone to help expand its influence.

As a member of the academic school with a good family background, he couldn't think of any conflict between the two sides for the time being.

So, after Professor Smith expressed his feelings, he asked for advice very happily: "Please give me some advice, President. I really don't know what to do."

President Delong smiled. He was indeed worthy of being the person favored by His Majesty. His mind was really fast.

Of course, just as Professor Smith thought, the two sides had no conflict of interest, but were natural allies.

"Your Majesty's mind, we can't guess.

But you should do your job well. You are the director of the Electric Power Department, so you are definitely not here for show.

Didn’t you just complete the verification of the power system? Grasp this work, and see if His Majesty has any other instructions.

It doesn’t matter if you have no experience. The Electric Power Department must have a deputy director, and the power can be appropriately delegated.

In addition to you, two professors from our school have also been transferred to the Electric Power Department. I can also help you recruit a group of working graduates, so you won’t be left alone. "

President Delong pointed out the situation to him as soon as he opened his mouth.

And Hadley University has a lot of invisible political resources. To be the director of the Electricity Department, you don't need to stand in line, you just need to make achievements.

After listening to the analysis, Professor Smith felt relieved.

Although he has little experience, he is not helpless behind him.

The whole university is his backing, and there are really few department-level officials who can compare with him.

In terms of professionalism, he also has enough confidence.

Therefore, Professor Smith made up his mind to give up the benefits that should be distributed, do a good job in promoting electricity first, and then slowly plan for the future.

This may be his unique advantage. Otherwise, if he gets caught up in the struggle for power, he will fail the expectations of His Majesty.

When he left the principal's office, Smith had already faced his new life calmly.
