CHAPTER 801 SAINTS IN THE WORLD

Seeing this scene, Caroline covered her forehead somewhat speechlessly, her eyes filled with pity.

Emma and Amy were also gloating and looking at Leo, waiting for him to make a fool of himself.

What can a soldier say?

But the students and teachers on the stage didn't know that, under Finley's hype, their expressions

became even more excited, and they really thought that Leo was some famous big shot.

The headmaster, Aydin, however, looked worried; he had been in the Pearl and naturally knew about

Leo.

But Leo still stood up with a smile on his face, took the microphone with a smile and said, "I'm not as

good as he said. I've lived a very simple and austere life these past few years, I went into the army and

just quit this year."

Everyone in the school was dumbfounded at this statement.

Cheers and applause, all at once, stopped.

It's not that they don't respect the profession, it's just that it's a bit too shabby compared to the ones

before him.

Emma and Amy are laughing, so he really been as a soldier!

Finley took a light sip of the mineral water in front of him, with a light smile on his lips.

His aim had been achieved and Leo had made a fool of himself in front of the whole school.

He gave Caroline a faint look to see how she would react.

But she still looked calm.

It was clear to Caroline that there was an afterthought to Leo.

Leo then added with a smile, "You guys must be disappointed, aren't you? Ten years have passed, and

I haven't made a name for myself as a soldier."

Emma, Amy and the others froze for a moment, and even Finley frowned slightly.

Was he going to say anything else?

They only saw Leo being silent for a while and suddenly asked, "Working after graduation for what?"

"In a small way, it's about having a better life for yourself, but in a larger way, what is it about?"

"For country and for your family!"

Leo spoke in a louder voice, "When the youth is strong, the country is strong, and when the country is

strong, the youth is strong! This is complementary to each other."

"......"

At the news, the whole school was dumbfounded on the spot.

Isn't it about presenting his opinion? Why is he talking about the country?

"I thought that the most direct way to help the country would be to become a soldier."

Leo continued, "So I went ahead, and in the process, I also thought of how to work on the economic

level, and doing business is also a good choice. There are many ways out, it all depends on your

choice."

At these words, the crowd was outright dumbfounded.

Does this not mean that in addition to being a soldier, he was also in business?

"There is also literature, martial arts, music and medicine, all of which are equally covered. No one is

perfect and there is no end to learning." Leo said.

His words echoed throughout the playground and those present were already too shocked to know

what to say.

They thought that Leo was just a soldier, but they never thought that he would do something other than

being a soldier.

If what Leo said is true, then Finley and the others are nothing at all.

Anything that rises to the level of the nation can awaken patriotic feelings in the hearts of the people.

Thus, there were the Seven Maestros.

Caroline's eyes shone with a strange colour, she had never understood what Leo had done in the past

five years.

Now it was vaguely clear to her.

Finley's face was unpleasant, and the expressions of the people present changed, looking at Leo like a

kind of saint, with reverence.

With a flash of gloom in his eyes, Finley picked up the microphone and said to Leo, "Leo, how can you

just talk without doing anything? How are you going to prove that you have done so much?" This content © 2024 .

Caroline stood up, "What do you mean, Finley? The purpose of this school celebration is to create a

positive image of upward mobility, it's not like we're trying to compare anything."

Leo, however, waved his hand, "I know what he wants to say, there is no saint in the world, much less a

person of high moral character. Who will rise from a small family to a nation, such a person is called a

'fool'."

Emma and Amy also looked disdainful, thinking that Leo must be making things up.

If a country could be so easily improved by one man, everyone would be a great hero.

Such a person is known as 'the inflection point of the age', which was rare.

"Words are not enough, so I decided to prove it to you next."

Leo smiled lightly, then looked at Aydin, "Principal O’Brien, is the school now planning to expand, but

struggling to get the funds in place and the plan is on hold?"

At the mention of this, Aydin blushed, "Yeah, otherwise I wouldn't have invited you guys over ......"

The remark was made in private and not for the whole school to hear.

The construction of the school is linked to the promotion rate, and if the promotion rate is high, the

school will be rated as a key high school by the education sector, and funding will be tilted, as a matter

of course.

This is the difficulty with public schools.

Leo nodded and then smiled, "Principal O’Brien, you treated me well in the past and helped me a lot, I

should know how to repay a favour."

"I intend to put up an initial 200 million as funding for the construction of the second secondary school

renovation."

When this statement was made, both Aydin, Finley, Emma, Amy, and the whole school were shocked.

Everyone suspected that their ears had been misheard, and a number of teachers had even got up

from their seats.
