The office was very narrow, so I could only put down three desks vertically. Behind the third desk was a window. Through the window, I could see the basketball court. More than a dozen boys were playing ball on the playground, and cheers came from time to time.

Next to the window is a cheap stool purchased by the school for students. On the stool is an equally cheap electric kettle. The water is about to open and the cooing sound gradually becomes smaller.

Xia Qiu and Xie Mingde saw Wen Nairong who broke in, and they didn't say anything. The only sound of playing ball and boiling water were left in the office.

The girl's expression was plain, she said sorry, stepped back and closed the door.

Xie Mingde turned his head to look at Xia Qiu: "No date? Just an ordinary friend?"

He repeated what Xia Qiu said to him before.

“At least not now.”

"I remembered it, Wen Nairong started to answer the questions, are you having a bad time again?"

"I'm not in the state today."

"Okay, go, see what she is looking for you. Remember, the college entrance examination is the most important thing at the moment, and there are only more than two months left. After this battle, there will be nearly three months of vacation, and you can do whatever you want."

Xia Qiu came out of the office, he looked around and the little secretary stood by the door.

There were many people in the corridor, and the two of them walked up the stairs.

The classrooms on the uppermost floor are empty. Through the window glass in the corridor, you can see densely packed with unused tables and chairs in the classroom.

It's very quiet here.

Stop beside the stairs, Wen Nairong watched the summer and autumn.

She asked in a daze: "Why?"

Xia Qiu knew what she was asking, and the girl knew why.

He said, "Wow, do I need to explain this? You are so bad-hearted."

Wen Nairong just habitually looked for Xia Qiu to confirm.

This young man who made her feel inferior and could not find her meaning in him was using this method to prove her position to her suspicious.

The reason why Xia Qiu did not give her knowledge immediately was because teachers always liked to let good students answer difficult questions, so young people cannot be without knowledge before finding alternative knowledge.

Last night, Xia Qiu gave her knowledge and caused the trouble just now.

This is the confession of the boy's action, which is integrated with the confession of the party's language after the first pawn, complementing and proof of each other.

In order to reassure her, the young man was willing to put himself in trouble, and this confession was self-harm.

Wen Nairong's turbulent heart calmed down, and she felt a little affection, which made her panic.

She distracted her attention: "Please find a better reason next time, such as a headache."

"Okay, next time I ask the little secretary to get a plan."

Xia Qiu put his hand on the girl's head. Although she was scolded, she successfully calmed down the little secretary, and that's all.

"Because you can only find 'high school knowledge' among senior high school students in this province, and it is expected that all subjects will be found in more than ten days."

Wen Nairong's words were like a needle, which suddenly stabbed Xia Qiu's body.

Xia Qiu was shocked: "No, I want to pretend to be a headache for more than ten days? I'll take another monthly exam soon!"

"There is no way, the teacher's knowledge is not suitable for the exam, and the students outside the province are not the same as us."

Teachers are like coaches. Coaches can enable athletes to exercise and perform better, but they cannot replace athletes. Because of the different test papers, senior high school students from other provinces cannot be found, and there are only so many students in this province...

Xia Qiu frowned, and his hand on the little secretary's head was pressed to make the girl look up at him. He figured it out.

"Teaching the boss?" He pinched Wen Nairong's nose.

This little secretary is really amazing. He doesn't blink when he lies.

The senior high school students in this province have a huge base. It is not difficult to find students who are biased in this base.

"No." Wen Nairong's voice buzzed.

Xia Qiu let go of his hands and watched his small nose return to its original state.

"Then there is nothing to do, it's too long. You should play the role of adolescent rebellious and melancholy girl for a while! Give me the knowledge first."

"I can let them come here at noon today." The young secretary immediately changed his mouth.

"You have already contacted me? Why didn't you make arrangements earlier?" Xia Qiu felt strange.

"You said you should try to get a large number of people together to pawn."

"I said this, but I didn't say I wanted to put these students in the pawnshops in the club, right? You'll bring them all, and I'll get it done in a few moments."

Wen Nairong didn't speak. These ordinary words contained affection. She was ashamed to respond, so she looked outside the railing.

"Why didn't you get together last night?" Xia Qiu asked again.

“Last night was a recruitment of employees.”

"..." Xia Qiu rubbed the girl's hair hard, rubbing her around, "You are quite old-fashioned. Can't you get a few students in recruiting employees?"

Another doubt flashed in his heart. Last night's employee recruitment was decided by Wen Nairong. Girls can pawn first and put students in the pawnsmen. Why did she recruit first?

The reason is very simple. Recruiting employees first and then pawning is the rational process.

Looking back on the whole incident, Xia Qiu sighed in his heart that the little secretary did not bring the students alone because he was afraid of getting annoyed him.

It is strictly abiding by the required procedures without inserting students into employee recruitment, and first recruiting employees and then pawning.

I don’t know if I should say that this little secretary is too sensible or that this little secretary is too reserved.

He said: "Take them over at noon and put them in the office across from the school. What do those students want?"

"Money. If you want, you can share your knowledge with them."

Do you exchange knowledge for money? It's very stable and realistic.

On Zhihu, you often see such questions - which one should choose from the admission notice of a certain prestigious school?

The answer below will basically choose money.

There is a word in the critical theory of the Frankfurt School, called "instrumental rationality", which means that reason is actually a tool to achieve some utilitarianism.

For example, in order to get close to the girl you like, I wore a black scarf and took a knife, and let the girl go with you fiercely and coldly, locked her in the basement.

This process is undoubtedly rational, with a knife covered in the face, but overall, it is hard to say that this is a rational thing.

This is instrumental rationality, and rationality has become a tool to realize desires.

If we replace "rationality" with "knowledge", this theory is still valid.

Throughout history, apart from some saints and fools, knowledge is just a tool for people to pursue money and power, and knowledge itself has no meaning.

Using the process of "knowledge" to exchange for the result of "money" is equivalent to skipping the process and directly enjoying the results. It is really gratifying and you have to hold a good wine to celebrate.

Thinking of this, Xia Qiu was indifferent and he said, "It's very good, very convenient."

After the matter was over, it was time to go back to their respective classes. Wen Nairong suddenly asked a question that Xia Qiu could not expect.

"Do I want to call the boss Zhuang Yuqian's wife?" the young secretary pretended to be careless.
