n“The first thing is about the expansion of the library. This is the support that the higher-ups have allocated to us. On one hand, it’s to make up for the losses our library has suffered. On the other hand, it’s also to increase the influence of our Jianghai city library.”
nYe Xiao, who was in the crowd, fell into deep thought.
nA library was the foundation of a city. A city might not have a martial arts academy, but it definitely had to have a library.
nThat was because the martial arts academy only targeted and screened stronger students. There were specialized martial arts experts who carried out systematic training and were then sent to the front lines.
nAs for the library, it could allow the students of the martial arts academy to learn, and it could also allow ordinary people to learn. It had the widest compatibility and could be said to be the foundation of all people practicing martial arts.
nGenerally speaking, the size of a martial arts library was strictly determined according to the size of a city.
nIf a martial arts library was expanded, would it mean that the city also needed to be expanded?
nYe Xiao often read books on history and geography.
nCurrently, the branches of every city in the nine provinces were very reasonable. There was no need for them to rashly make changes to a city.
nCould it be that… They were under pressure to the point that they had to add more large cities.
nShould he say that he wanted to gather the population of the surrounding small cities instead? To form a large city?
nThinking about it carefully, it had been more than 50 years since the last beast calamity, right?
nYe Xiao’s brows were slightly furrowed.
nIf his assumption was true, then the problem would be very big.
nAn extremely powerful star beast would appear in the beast calamity, and its strength might even reach the divine grandmaster level.
nAlthough he could kill enemies of a higher level, he was still unsure of his limits.
nWhat if he could not defeat those in the divine sect?
nThen he would be dead.
nIf that was the case, reading an extra hour a day might not be enough.
nIt seemed like he would need another half an hour.
n“Manager Ye, Manager Ye.”
nJust as Ye Xiao was deep in thought, Ning Yuhen stretched out his arm and held his elbow, pulling his thoughts back.
nHe raised his head and looked at everyone. They were all staring at him, and he could not help but be stunned. He immediately used the Big Dipper’s Grand Mystery to directly extract everyone’s memories. Only then did he understand what was going on.
nThe expansion of the library, coupled with Yang Zhengyi killing a few old people in the library when he stole King El’s map, now the library urgently needed to add more management personnel.
nPeople like Ye Xiao would naturally become one of the candidates.
nThe other managers naturally had the qualifications as well.
nNow, it was time for him to go up and give a campaign speech.
nYe Xiao coughed lightly and walked up to the stage under everyone’s gazes. He said simply,
n“Thank you for everyone’s trust and the director’s trust, but I personally feel that I’m still young. The other seniors are better than me in terms of work experience and organizing activities, so I won’t embarrass myself.”
nNodding slightly in greeting, Ye Xiao walked down the stage again under everyone’s puzzled gazes.
nOuyang Yunzhong looked at Ye Xiao’s back with some surprise as if she did not expect that Ye Xiao would actually be so free and easy.
nThat kid’s temperament was amazing.
nIt was a pity that he did not awaken his soul. Otherwise, he would definitely be pretty good on the path of martial arts.
nHowever, the election still had to continue.
n“Ahem… Thank you, Ye Xiao. Next is Wang Na.”
nThe manslayer, Ms. Wang, was not as courteous as Ye Xiao. She went up directly to thank the director and everyone. Every time she thanked and bowed, her collar would automatically hang down.
nThey could not help staring but they were also embarrassed.
nIf Gu Hai was here, he might have already started whistling.
nNing Yuhen could not help but ask in a low voice,
n“Manager Ye, why aren’t you running for election? If the election is successful, wouldn’t it be good to get a promotion and a raise? If you were to get another promotion, you should be the supervisor, right?”
nYe Xiao shook his head.
n“I’m not interested.”
nThere were only three supervisor positions, but there were eight or nine people running for office.
nIt was needless to say about Wang Na. In the entire library, other than herself and Ning Yuhen, who had not fallen into her hands, the others were more or less having an affair with her.
nShe was a woman who stood on countless mountains!
nEven if she was lying down, she was more popular than the others.
nThere were too many people who were her equal. If she did not go up, justice would not allow it!
nAmong the remaining candidates, one of them was the junior of the director and was guaranteed to be sent up. Going up to give a speech was just a formality.
nIn other words, there was only one spot left.
nYe Xiao could not be bothered to snatch the position from them.
nBesides, so what if he managed to snatch it?
nHe would have to increase his salary a little more, but he would have to manage more matters. He would have to hold meetings every day to convey the concerns of the meeting of the higher-ups. If there was trouble, he would have to charge ahead.
nIn order to earn an extra 1,000 to 2,000 yuan, he had to buy out his youth for others. Only a fool would do that.
nNing Yuhen’s face revealed a look of admiration.
nAs expected of Manager Ye, who he admired the most. He was not moved at all by the promotion and salary increase.
nThere were really too few people who were indifferent to fame and fortune.
nWith someone like him who did not care about fame and fortune, and who was not greedy, he would definitely be a good leader.
nOnce he had decided, he would vote for him!
n…
nAfter Ye Xiao spoke, he continued to be in a daze, waiting for the meeting to end so that he could go back and read.
nHowever, the result made him greatly surprised.
nThe first two predictions were correct. One was Wang Na, and the other was the junior in the director’s family.
nHowever, the third one was actually him!
nWhen that result came out, Ye Xiao was stunned.
nHis face was filled with confusion and doubt.
nWere there problems with those people’s brains?
nHe had already said it very simply. He did not want to be a supervisor, he only wanted to be a manager. He could read books every day and improve himself.
nIt was better to reject it. After all, being an official was too big and troublesome.
nYe Xiao had always been a person who did not like the trouble.
nOuyang Yunzhong looked at Ye Xiao and smiled.
n“Looks like little Ye is quite popular in everyone’s hearts. Since that’s the case, I think the third supervisor should be you.”.
n“In addition, after the library’s reform this time, the salary of the supervisor would also be increased correspondingly. It would exceed 10,000 yuan a month.
n“It will be implemented from this month.”
nYe Xiao was silent for a moment
nWhy not… Try It for a few days first. If it was really not possible, then choose to reject it.
nAfter all… 5000 yuan was not just 1000 or 2000 yuan. They should still give some face.
n“Today’s meeting ends here. If there is anything that everyone does not understand, you can bring it up now.”
n“No!”
nYe Xiao shouted along with everyone. Ouyang Yunzhong nodded her head in satisfaction.
n“Alright, since that’s the case, let’s head to our respective areas. In a while, there will be workers moving the books. All of you will be in charge of directing the positions where the books are placed and taking stock of them in detail. Don’t make any mistakes.”
n“Yes!”
