The Transmigrated Li Jin's Daily Farming Life (Translated With Mtl)

Chapter 81

Zou Xiujie and Chen Xiran explained to Li Jin the significance of "scores" and elaborated on two methods to earn extra points.

For instance, excelling in class participation or performing exceptionally well in the end-of-month assessments.

Li Jin nodded and quietly stored this information in his mind.

Fortunately, due to his prior experience with Jiang Lang's debate, the lecture hall atmosphere was pleasant, allowing Li Jin to quickly adapt and not falter.

Otherwise, his score might have been quite modest.

The next day, after finishing school and having lunch, Li Jin headed to the Department of Mathematical Studies to organize books.

Apart from Li Jin, there was another teaching assistant named Pan Youfeng, with an extensive background.

Pan Youfeng hailed from a scholarly background and was now past his thirties. He had participated in the autumn examinations twice before but hadn't succeeded. He now planned to stay in the academy as a lecturer. However, due to the lecturer positions being filled, he had to start as a teaching assistant.

When Li Jin arrived around noon, it was still early, and the Mathematical Department was empty. Armed with a clean cloth, he wiped away the dust from the math books while sorting them into different categories such as basic, elementary, intermediate, and advanced.

After nearly half an hour, Pan Youfeng hurriedly arrived. Observing Li Jin's progress in book organization, he exclaimed, "Li Jin, why are you here so early?"

Li Jin's colleague's audacity left him momentarily stunned, and he hadn't even had a chance to respond.

Pan Youfeng seemed rushed, directly taking a book and retrieving a couple of sheets of rice paper from the table, promptly beginning the process of transcribing.

At this juncture, two instructors entered. Upon seeing both assistants occupied, a hint of contentment flickered in their eyes.

Without disturbing them, the instructors took their seats and resumed studying the books left behind by the senior leader.

Li Jin, meanwhile, continued to classify books in his spot.

As the senior leader had previously stated, they were to finish sorting the books before any transcription work could be done. It was a reciprocal arrangement that allowed them to transcribe unique copies for their personal use.

However, Pan Youfeng appeared well-presented. How could he commit such actions?

Fortunately, the subject of mathematics had relatively few books, so Li Jin anticipated completing the task within a few days.

In the afternoon, Li Jin arranged the portion of books he had organized onto the shelves. On the other side, Pan Youfeng had already put down his brush, holding a book while discussing matters with an instructor.

Li Jin furrowed his brows, but given his recent appointment, he didn't want to sour relations with his colleagues right off the bat.

He approached another instructor and politely requested, "Sir, I come from a residence in the inner city, and I need to return home."

"No problem. You've been sorting books for quite some time. If you're thirsty next time, I have tea here. Feel free to pour yourself a cup," the instructor replied.

"Thank you, sir."

On the other side, while Pan Youfeng was still mulling over his questions, he was astounded to hear that the usually stern and impartial Wan Jiaoyu had actually invited Li Jin for tea!
