It wasn't actually tiring, as the elementary school only had 12 classes and 729 students.
Each class had only two art classes per week, so the two of them could manage perfectly well.
The teaching requirements from above were a bit high, requiring reasonable instruction that integrated with the students' existing knowledge.
This meant fewer purely artistic lessons and more art lessons that combined theory with practical application.
For example, in handicraft classes, they would make things like observing buoyancy, building rockets, or painting using the color-changing principles learned in chemistry.
In short, the workload wasn't heavy, but it required effort and thought.
Sun Haiping, who had lost an arm, was selected by the communication department of the intelligence division to become a communicator and satellite image observer, which was already quite good.
Zhu Mingjun had just graduated from university and was skilled with firearms, so he also entered the school to teach. However, he joined Tianfu No. 1 Middle School in the safe zone, responsible for teaching geography and serving as an adjunct firearms instructor for physical education.
Zhao Anjing had not yet graduated from high school, so she was assigned to Tianfu No. 1 Middle School in the safe zone, coincidentally becoming a student under Zhu Mingjun.
"Just right."
Of course, their relationship at school was purely that of teacher and student.
Teachers must set an example; they shouldn't encourage students to do things they shouldn't. Everyone goes through puberty, and developing feelings for each other is normal, but affection that arises from immaturity is also immature.
It wasn't opposed, but it wasn't encouraged either.
Only when a person recognizes the responsibilities they carry do they have the right to be responsible for another person.
With the apocalypse upon them, the school needed to quickly cultivate a group of talented individuals with reliable knowledge.
Therefore, they removed the less important parts of the original curriculum, retaining the essence, with the goal of accelerating talent cultivation.
The remaining knowledge would be supplemented gradually in the workplace as needed.
Naturally, the corresponding safety regulations were of the highest priority. Of course, these weren't the dauntingly thick books; for most jobs, except high-risk ones, they were concise content of only 4-5 pages. Every job position would organize a safety knowledge assessment at the beginning of each month, and it was taken very seriously.
Failed to pass?
Sorry, half of your salary would be deducted for the month, and you would receive a demerit. All your benefits for the month would be canceled until you passed the next assessment.
If you accumulated two failures.
Sorry, this job isn't suitable for you.
Got sidetracked...
Wu Mengyao, Liu Mengmeng, Liu Ziyi, Sun Qin, and other children would continue attending school.
Even Yan Ruyu, this girl, was not yet an adult and was in her second year of high school, so she also had to return to receive the enlightenment of knowledge.
Fortunately, Lin Yuan had kept them in a learning state while they were at the camp, so they should be able to catch up quickly at school and at least not fall behind.
The five women rescued from Du Minghu, although two of them were alone and had no children, also found decent jobs.
They took Lin Yuan's words to heart and, after finishing their shifts, diligently studied knowledge, just like the children.
Lin Yuan had predicted that in the safe zone, mechanical, agricultural, and teaching positions would be in high demand.
They studied well and passed their interviews, entering their desired positions.
Lin Yuan's parents, along with Lin Qingshan, went to the fruit and vegetable cultivation center. The three of them had only read about this in the past few months, and although they had a lot of skills, they preferred to dedicate themselves to the vital task of grain production.
Lin Qingshan also mentioned that once the fruits and vegetables were back on track, he would apply for a piece of land in a safer area outside to grow strawberries, blueberries, berries, watermelons, and the like, aiming to seize the fruit salad market.
Hahahaha (ಡwಡ)hiahiahia.
Lin Yuan couldn't help but laugh thinking about his uncle and father's confident expressions at the time. But he didn't say anything; he let them do something they enjoyed.
As for Zeng Yilong and the others, apart from Cao Xueqin, Lin Yuan didn't inquire further, but he heard they were doing well too.
However, as Lin Yuan had predicted, Cao Xueqin, a top sniper, was directly admitted with an exception and joined the special forces, responsible for external operations, though not in the same team as Mu Qingtian.
It made sense; how could the authorities waste two precious snipers in the same team?
Zhao Mengnan and Wang Zhihai didn't want to return to their old professions. Instead, they wanted to join the grassroots law enforcement team, which infuriated the manpower department, and their request was directly denied.
With their immense talents, why would they come to the community to be law enforcement officers instead of making achievements outside? Wasn't that a waste of talent?
Saying it was a waste of talent might be excessive, but their thinking was that good steel should be used on the sharpest edge.
So, the two had to obey orders and joined the special forces, and they were still in the same team as Mu Qingtian.
Their fate was not yet over, and they had to comply.
However, Wu Tian's job had not yet been finalized, only that she requested a teaching position at the school for free combat and archery.
Although the manpower department knew Wu Tian had strong combat capabilities, she wasn't an official law enforcement officer or soldier of China, so it was difficult to force her to join the special forces or the special security department.
After some thought, teaching free combat and archery at the school could also improve students' physical fitness.
Especially archery; when practiced well, it cultivates long, steady breathing, a stable stance, and strong arm power.
So, the manpower department also approved Wu Tian's job application.
Moreover, this job was quite relaxed, similar to Zhu Mingjun's part-time physical education teacher role.
Upon learning that Wu Tian hadn't chosen a position with a heavy workload, Lin Yuan guessed something.
Could this girl be planning to have a child so soon!
And Jiang Ziqi had told him countless times that his body could handle having a baby without any issues.
As for why she was so sure.
Tsk, that's a story that would make one blush. (Nothing happened yet, a preemptive warning: their relationship is pure...)
Meng Yue must have also been influenced by Jiang Ziqi. It seemed this girl was eager to become the godmother to his eldest son and daughter, fearing others would snatch the opportunity.
After hearing everyone's news, Lin Yuan also had to say goodbye, as Ying Tianlong and the others were waiting for him.
"Alright, Brother Wang, you go for your check-up first. We'll gather again tonight to chat."
"Alright, Captain. We'll head off now."
Most of the others had already gone for their check-ups. Lin Yuan didn't disturb them and went up to the fifth floor to find Ying Tianlong.
After a comprehensive examination, the nurse's mouth was agape in surprise: "Comrade Lin Yuan, your body is in the best condition possible. All your data is above average. Especially your strength and nerve reaction speed, they are nearly six times that of a normal human."
This was after Lin Yuan had held back a bit. The true data should be around seven times, which was the maximum improvement limit achieved by the God's Medicine, the M virus, and Lin Yuan's own luck.
As for self-healing ability, who would cut themselves during a physical examination to observe how long it took for the wound to heal? That would be considered insane, like calling him Mundo (a mad doctor from League of Legends).
Another nurse, seeing this data, was equally surprised: "That's strange. This morning, another person came for the same comprehensive physical examination as you. They had similar data."
???
"Who?"
"You don't know? We just reported it to the intelligence department. Her name is Wang Xiaoxin, she's a girl."
What!!!
