Backlund University starts on Monday in early September.
Of course, this is the start of school for students.
For lecturers, faculty and associate professors, they need to start working at least one week in advance, that is, the last Monday in August, to formulate teaching plans and assign teaching tasks.
Monday, August 27th.
Valeera took a carriage to Backlund University. On the office floor of the History Department, in the large offices of the lecturers, she got her own small office area, a semi-partitioned one.
After attending the nearly two-hour teaching meeting, she also clarified her responsibilities.
The number of students at Backlund University is naturally far greater than that at Huoyin University, so there are classes. In the coming semester, trainee lecturers like Valila's main job is to be responsible for the students in a class. A professional course, as well as other matters such as writing teachings, handouts, papers, etc.
The trainee lecturer will definitely be responsible for less important courses at the beginning, and Valeela doesn’t care about improving her professional title, plus the advantages brought to her by extraordinary means... For her, this job is Quite relaxed and free.
She only has two classes a week, a total of four classes, about three hours in total. Other than that, most of the time, unless there are special circumstances, as long as there are no problems with her teaching, no one will care whether she goes to the office or not. .
In such an era of change, this situation exists in many respectable industries.
Some people go to work for a high salary, and they work hard to get a decent job; while for others, such a job is just a temporary interest for them to express themselves.
From the outside world, Valeera clearly belongs to the latter category.
Of course, relaxation and freedom were the conditions after the teaching work officially started. During the recent preparation period, she still had to show up at school on time.
Valeera adapted to the new job, new environment, and new interactions, winning more or less favor from almost everyone.
Two days later, Valeela began to selectively send out invitations to the ball.
She is planning to hold a dance at her residence on the night of September 1st.
When the invitations were sent out, the preliminary preparations for the dance had been basically completed.
In order to hold this ball, Valeera spent several hundred pounds, which was really heartbreaking.
But this dance is a respect for etiquette, a milestone in further integrating into the upper class social circle, and is indispensable.
Of course, this ball has another meaning to Valeela.
She can use this to pave the way for a big event that is about to happen——
"Hurricane Admiral" Chillingas assassinates Duke Negan.
Valeera has confirmed this matter through various channels, and there is no big deviation from the description in the original book.
A few days ago, first Audrey asked her about Shepherd's abilities, then there was a letter from Klein, and then there was the "mirror call" between Xio and Forsi... Obviously, what they said It's the same thing.
There is a lot of money to be made in this matter. Even if you don't take into account the magical item "Crawling Hunger", there is also the bounty and Duke Negan's thank you money, which adds up to more than 40,000 pounds!
Valeera took a fancy to this property.
Not only that, she even thought about how to use this property for investment and how to use the income earned.
For this reason, some details certainly need to be laid out in advance.
The time soon came to Saturday.
At eight o'clock in the evening, brother and sister Valeera and "Kili" welcomed the guests at the door and sent each guest into the ball hall.
There were many invited guests.
For example, Audrey's friends such as Grelint, Cons, Murray, and Christine; such as the lecturers, teachers, and associate professors of the History Department of Backlund University; and some military officers and parliamentarians whom "Kili" met. Waiting for a friend.
Of all the guests at this ball, the most important and eye-catching guest is of course Audrey. Generally speaking, it is impossible for her to appear at a ball of this level.
In addition to Audrey, several guests also received Valeela's secret attention.
For example, the "proud sewer girl" Hazel, whom Valeera had a chance encounter with, such as Associate Professor Barak and his wife, and the couple Doragu Gale and Mary Short.
Hazel, who had always been proud, completely lost her pride at this dance.
When Valeela and Audrey stood together and smiled and communicated, they were brighter than the huge chandelier on the dance floor, attracting almost everyone's attention.
Of course, if she only has looks, then she at least has the advantage of extraordinary abilities.
But with the "thief's" eyesight, Hazel easily discovered that Valeera had several high-value items on her body, and she was most likely not an ordinary person.
After the dance started, as the host, Valeela and her brother "Kili" danced the opening dance to the melodious music. At the same time, the men present also began to look for the dance partner they wanted to invite first.
Invariably, their eyes first glanced at Audrey, who was standing on the edge of the dance floor, but... they just glanced at her and quickly looked away.
Look again and again, think again and again, and have some idea in your mind.
They shifted their gazes, and many of them's eyes lit up when they saw Hazel not far away.
At this moment, Hazel frowned inconspicuously, moved her steps, and walked to Audrey's side.
After the opening dance, Valeela noticed Audrey and Hazel talking, and was slightly surprised.
She walked over and heard the two of them whispering about occult knowledge.
Of course, neither of them revealed their identities as extraordinary beings, and they only talked about the superficial aspects of mysticism.
Valeera soon joined in their conversation.
Part of her thoughts were the same as Hazel's, they both planned to use Audrey as a shield to politely refuse the man's invitation to dance.
…
In the middle of the dance, Valeela found an opportunity to talk to Ms. Mary Short. She is the director of Coium Company, which specializes in anthracite and high-quality charcoal, and controls 20% of the company's shares.
Coyim Company is the most important investment target that Valeela has planned in advance.
She knew very well that in the next few months, due to the implementation of new laws and the "Great Smog" incident, Kaoyim Company would have a huge development, and the overall value would increase several times.
Because it was a sure thing, Valila started discussing investment intentions with Ms. Mary before the expected wealth was obtained.
Of course, what she wants to do is invest, not buy Mary's shares.
Valeera has already thought of an investment method that will not only protect Mary's interests, but also avoid the subsequent two crises of equity competition and military takeover of Coyim Company.
Well, the premise is that she can convince Mary to help complete her investment plan.
