Kapitel 36: Physical Education Teacher
"Is that it?" Jake held the appointment letter from Princeton University, feeling a bit confused as he left Carter's office. Originally, Jake thought Carter would ask him questions about his abilities and experience. Who would have thought that they would just chat casually, and then Carter would hand him the appointment letter with his name already written on it, asking him to complete the formalities. Even interviews for elementary school teachers or private tutors wouldn't be this easy and straightforward, right?
If it were in a different place, Jake would definitely suspect that the person was playing a prank on him. However, the office wasn't fake, and the appointment letter in his hand couldn't be fake either. Could it be that interviews for university professors were really this simple?
"Anyway, I haven't lost anything. The benefits of being a teacher are still good," Jake thought, unable to figure it out, so he decided to stop thinking about it. At this moment, Carter sat at his desk, watching Jake leave with a mysterious glint in his eyes.
With Carter's assistance and the appointment letter, Jake's onboarding process went smoothly. Moreover, thanks to Carter's support, Jake didn't have to stay at the school when he didn't have classes. In a daze, Jake became a physical education teacher at Princeton University.
The students hadn't officially started school yet, so Jake naturally didn't have any classes. After completing the onboarding process, he left Princeton University and went to buy ingredients. After the lesson from a couple of days ago, Jake bought a lot of ingredients today, which meant he had a lot more work to do.
"It seems like I really need to hire someone. Otherwise, with this amount of work, doing it alone would not only be tiring, but I might not be able to finish it," Jake thought while skewering the meat. Previously, when his business was struggling and he could barely support himself, he didn't consider hiring anyone. But now that his business was improving and he had advanced culinary skills, Jake believed that his business would continue to grow. Coupled with his new role as a teacher, he would have less free time and would need someone to help him.
Over the next two to three days, Jake's life went on as usual. He made skewers during the day and grilled them at night. At night, he would go to another dimension. His life was busy but fulfilling. The barbecue business had been doing well these past few days, and word-of-mouth was spreading.
Of course, this naturally aroused jealousy among the owners of the neighboring barbecue stalls. Sometimes, they would come over and deliberately say a few disparaging words. Jake's response to such situations was to ignore them. Over his more than a year of work experience, Jake had encountered all kinds of people. Some people just couldn't stand others doing better than them. They wouldn't look for reasons within themselves but would instead try to belittle others.
Seeing Jake act "timid," the owners of those barbecue stalls felt both proud and helpless. They realized that most of their business had been taken away by Jake. Furthermore, the peak season for barbecue only lasted a few months. If they didn't make money during these months, it would be difficult to make money afterward. As a result, they began to have malicious intentions and planned to sabotage Jake's business in order to take back what was rightfully theirs.
In the game world, Jake hadn't received any new quests in the past few days. He had been killing monsters to level up. With his silver-grade weapon, Jake's monster-killing speed had improved significantly, and his level had also increased by one. It was truly difficult to level up there.
Jake had killed quite a few monsters, but he had only gone up one level. It was not an easy task to increase his level. However, each level-up increased all his attribute points by one, which had a decent effect. Without using a weapon, Jake's attributes were now three times that of an ordinary person.
Thinking about it, by the time he reached level ten, his strength and agility alone would probably be comparable to those of special forces soldiers. Since he couldn't sell the ore for now, Jake hadn't been mining in the cave these past few days. Currently, his main source of income came from decomposing the monsters' remains. Although the earning speed was slower than mining, it was stable and wouldn't raise any suspicion.
What made Jake happy was that the seeds he planted in the empty space behind his house had actually sprouted and emerged from the soil. The growth rate was much faster than in reality. It was normal to think about it. After all, it was a game world, different from reality. Moreover, time passed faster there compared to the real world, so naturally, the growth rate of plants and animals was also faster.
Jake didn't miss his morning running exercise every day. Every morning, he could see Wendy's graceful figure on the playground. Since their last encounter, Jake would always greet her when they met, and Wendy would respond. However, their interaction was limited to that, and they didn't have much deeper conversation.
This morning, after finishing his workout, Jake didn't return to his residence. Instead, he went to his office. Today was the first day of school at Princeton University. Although he didn't have his own classes, Jake felt that it would be better for him to go to his office.
This was Jake's second time coming to his office. The first time was when he completed the onboarding process. At that time, there was no one in the office, and Jake just took a quick look before leaving. But today was different. When Jake arrived at the office, there were already two people inside.
"Excuse me, who are you looking for?" a middle-aged man in his forties asked when he saw Jake entering. The other person was younger, and after glancing at Jake, he continued lifting dumbbells. The physical education teacher's office was different from other teachers' offices. Here, in addition to the desk, there were various fitness equipment.
"I'm not a student. I'm also a teacher here," Jake walked towards his desk and then looked at the man who had just spoken, saying, "My name is Jake, the new physical education teacher."
"Hmm?" The middle-aged man was stunned, and the person lifting dumbbells also stopped and looked at Jake.
"You're a teacher?" the middle-aged man asked.
"Yeah," Jake pointed to his desk and said, "I'll be sitting here."
"You're so young," the middle-aged man exclaimed, "My name is David, also a physical education teacher."
Jake looked at the young man exercising, and the other person looked at Jake too, saying somewhat arrogantly, "With your physique, what can you teach?"
Indeed, compared to the other two, Jake's body seemed a bit weaker. However, this was just an illusion. Jake's physique was not bad at all. With each level increase, his body would undergo changes, making it more and more perfect. It was just that under the cover of clothing, he appeared somewhat thin and weak.
