Rich in the 70s: I Made a Rugged Veteran a Millionaire-Chapter 45: Our Night School Is Willing to Help

Chapter 45: Chapter 45: Our Night School Is Willing to Help

Jiang Cheng successfully "persuaded" Sister Kong.

Sister Kong not only didn’t ask for Dong Zi’s sentence to be reduced, she even demanded a harsher sentence for Dong Zi, preferably to be held in the most strictly controlled place.

In short, it’s safe inside, but deadly if he comes out.

With Sister Kong’s cooperation, Uncle Zhong obtained crucial information and hastily left the public security bureau.

Jiang Cheng didn’t have anything else to do, but she sidled up to Leader Tang, holding a newspaper.

The legitimate headline on the newspaper was news of a major murder case cracked by a certain public security bureau.

"Leader Tang, is this about our bureau?"

Leader Tang glanced at it, and with a slight choke in his heart, said, "No!"

Jiang Cheng exclaimed in surprise.

She awkwardly put down the newspaper and said, "My mistake, my mistake! I instinctively thought such an impressive matter was handled by our bureau!"

"Mainly because all of you are so capable, breaking such a big human trafficking case in such a short time. You’ve saved so many people, so many families!"

The heart-constricted Leader Tang suddenly felt empowered again.

Mr. Jiang was right, they were indeed impressive.

"With such a large case cracked, you’ll definitely make it to the newspapers."

Upon hearing this, Leader Tang frowned and said, "We’re grounded in our work and don’t need these flashy things."

Jiang Cheng heard this, her expression restrained, holding back, but couldn’t help it.

"Leader Tang, I beg to differ with your view."

Leader Tang looked up at Jiang Cheng, his tiger-like brow furrowed with pressure, but Jiang Cheng remained unfazed.

"Leader Tang, how did the science popularization go in the school the other day?"

"Very well!"

"Since that’s the case, imagine if this kind of science popularization was published in the newspaper, how many people would see it? If it was turned into a play, how many people would see it then? Wouldn’t those who see it raise their alertness, increase their vigilance against human traffickers?"

Jiang Cheng’s words opened a new door for Leader Tang.

Indeed, why hadn’t he thought of that!

But...

"The idea is good, but we don’t have time for these things."

"Indeed, your focus should remain on the cases, but couldn’t a brother unit handle these aspects? Like our night school is very willing to take on the job."

With a wave from Jiang Cheng’s hand behind her back, Principal Wang immediately walked over, it was his time to perform.

"Jiang Cheng is right, our night school is very willing to assist the public security comrades in doing a good job with publicity."

Leader Tang: I suspect this is your true intention!

Yet Jiang Cheng makes a valid point.

Prevention is better than catching after the fact.

After a discussion, things were tentatively settled, waiting for tomorrow when Principal Wang and Leader Tang report to the higher-ups together.

Late at night, Jiang Cheng and Principal Wang left the public security bureau, and after walking a long way, Principal Wang couldn’t help but ask, "Why are we doing this?"

Jiang Cheng didn’t look back as she responded, "Do you need a reason to do good deeds?"

"Others may not need a reason, but for you, it might not be the same."

Jiang Cheng suddenly stopped.

"Principal Wang, I need to seriously say something to you."

Jiang Cheng’s serious expression made Principal Wang completely attentive.

"Say it."

With a heartfelt expression, Jiang Cheng said:

"I... am truly a good person."

Principal Wang’s cheeks twitched as he rolled his eyes speechlessly, so much so that the roll didn’t even want to come back down.

"Jiang Cheng, I almost believed it!"

"I knew you could believe it!"

Jiang Cheng’s selective hearing left Principal Wang speechless, but he gritted his teeth and followed her.

Actually, Jiang Cheng’s thoughts were simple: human traffickers deserve to die.

She wanted to do her part, to bring future propaganda forward and reduce the occurrence of tragedies.

The two returned to night school, one to the office, and the other to the classroom.

Returning to the classroom, Jiang Cheng found He Dan attending class.

Indeed, the wound on He Dan’s forehead, mistakenly inflicted by Lin Mother, had mostly healed.

He Dan had missed a few days of class and had studied at home by herself, following the night school’s learning progress, so He Dan didn’t think there would be a problem.

In reality, she was wrong.

During her absence, the night school’s learning progress had accelerated greatly, elevating every student significantly.

He Dan struggled to keep up, but there was still much she didn’t understand.

Moreover, why were there so many exercises?

Why did everyone not talk during breaks, but instead keep scribbling and asking questions?

Why did they all go to Jiang Cheng with their questions?

Even Zhang Cuijuan went to Jiang Cheng with her questions!

And wasn’t Sun Jiandong known for looking down on everyone? Why was he smiling so amiably?

Even though it had only been a few days, He Dan felt like she was in a different school altogether.

After night school let out, Jiang Cheng quickly ran out of the classroom and handed the materials she organized regarding anti-human trafficking science popularization to Principal Wang.

"Principal, take this with you when you go to the meeting with Leader Tang tomorrow. Think of how many families you’ll save with proper publicity!"

"In the past, your contributions could have merited a separate page in the family tree!"

"And if this task is done well, at the end of the year, when they select advanced units, our night school will indeed be stable."

Jiang Cheng’s enthusiasm struck a chord, causing Principal Wang to nod earnestly for the first time: "Good!"

Jiang Cheng flashed a bright smile, turned, and ran down the stairs, riding her bicycle, the handle adorned with a signature brass gong, racing all the way.

In his office, Principal Wang held the thick stack of materials in his hands.

"This girl must have been planning this since the first time they caught human traffickers."

The materials were very comprehensive.

The serialized human traffickers’ story in the newspaper, how it should be written, and if made into a script, how it should be structured.

Thick and all handwritten.

Embracing the "separate page in the family tree" spirit, Principal Wang opened the first page and began familiarizing himself with the information.

Early the next morning, Jiang Cheng was aware she didn’t need to go to Elder Xu for class today.

She stared into space for two minutes sitting on her bed, then took out the book Teacher Lü needed translated, reading it from start to finish once, and then again.

Only after fully reading it twice did Jiang Cheng prepare to begin translating.

At seven, Jiang Cheng was startled by Shen Yue’s knocking, drawing her out of her focused translation work.

"Sister, are you okay? Ready to eat?"

Shen Yue’s slightly worried voice sounded from outside, usually by this time Jiang Cheng was already up.

"No problem, be right there!"

After responding, Shen Yue still waited outside worriedly.

With a creak, Jiang Cheng came out, seeing Shen Yue, she laughed and said, "Yue Yue still cares about me the most."

"Yes, yes! I’m the best!"

Shen Yue eagerly accepted, leaving Shen Xing speechless from seeing Shen Yue being brainwashed and coaxed by Jiang Cheng daily.

Always feeling that if Sister Jiang Cheng said the sun rose from the west, Shen Yue would eagerly agree with both hands and feet.

The four of them ate together, the atmosphere warm and pleasant.

Jiang Cheng went to work at the recycling station as usual, but today was destined to be not so smooth.

The recycling station caught fire, four classifiers died, and Sister Kong was arrested.

Old Sun, who patrolled at night, however, was not involved, but was unawares of the daily drugs Sister Kong administered, and slept soundly through the nights.

The recycling station manager wanted nothing more than to fire him, but at the moment there was really no one available, additionally, firing someone in this era was rather cumbersome.

While the recycling station manager lamented, Jiang Cheng arrived.

"Manager, why don’t we borrow some people from other recycling stations to help out, we’re all brother units, mutual assistance and support?"

The manager waved his hand and said, "Forget it, it’d be good enough if they don’t watch the spectacle."

"Oh? Is that so, I thought they’d be fighting to come, they could get five job positions!"

After Jiang Cheng’s words fell, the manager’s eyes brightened explosively.

Indeed!

He had only considered the lack of workers, but hadn’t thought he was holding onto five job positions!!
