The conversation stopped when Zheng Tan and Guo came in They continued after Guo left
Zheng Tan sat on his own chair and listened to their conversation
Papa Jiao was talking about the brokentheory
This topic was generated because Jiao Yuan co homework In today's Chinese class, the teacher criticized some students who copied other people's homework To Jiao Yuan, people copied homework for other subjects as well Why was this teacher the only one who couldn't let it go?
Papa Jiao heard hiive him a lesson on the brokentheory
The brokentheory believed that if someone broke aand this as not repaired in time, someone else may be influenced by this and believe that the behavior was acceptable This could result in rising crime rates
”Behavior and environestive If the firstis not repaired in ti worse may happen Sa homework is acceptable, not only will they do this s could happen”
Zheng Tan was confused why Papa Jiao was trying to explain so so complicated to an ele Tan was a student, he did it all Frohts and even atte could be solved withfrom teachers, as there to stop him?
Nevertheless, Zheng Tan still sat there listening to their conversation, but the topic had switched to business ement
”There are two types of working environ condition, equip atmosphere, enterprise culture, interpersonal relationshi+ps and ement style Take uncle Yuan Zi for example, he pays special attention to the so called ”broken s” in his company He is fast to take action whenever s appear in the hard qualities of the company As for the soft environment, a brokencould be much more destructive”
”Every critical issue is the accumulation of smaller issues Uncle Yuan Zi is always alert because if anything happens, action s can have bad influences on his coant you are, you have to take good care of the broken s if you want a better future”
”The sa a part of this class if your class had a bad reputation”
Jiao Yuan greed with Papa Jiao One of the classes in his grade had a terrible reputation At first, it was said that people were stealing pens and erasers, but both the students and teachers of that class didn't pay much attention to the problem Soon, money was stolen
At this point, everyone avoided people from that class Students of that class were always afraid of being despised
”This kind of chain reaction could also be positive For example, if your mom buys you a pair of socks with your favorite Transformers on it You would try to choose to wear cleaner shoes with the socks When you finish dressing up, you will also subconsciously try to avoid getting your clothes dirty In this process, your personal ie will improved a lot”
”I get it now Just like Xiong Xiong, His posture is terrible His mother scolded hi tall He didn't listen because he is already one of the tallest in his class However, one day his ht him nice new clothes His mother told hihtened, he would be irls! It worked”
Zheng Tan was speechless Was she encouraging puppy love?
Having heard what Jiao Yuan said, Papa Jiao thought for a second and said, ”So what you are trying to say is…”
”What I'et to buy new clothes for the co New Year? I will not be satisfied with just a pair of socks now!”
Zheng Tan was speechless again It was painful listening to them talk How could they make so much out of a normal class phenomenon!
The custoet to buy new clothes for the New Year As for the grown-ups, it depended on their own financial conditions
Papa Jiao kneas coet and how et will depend on how you behave at school”
”Ok! But will you let me decide the style of clothes I want if I am top 5 in my class?”
”I will”
”Will you approve even if I want to buy those funky styles with spikes?”
”Not a problee your hair to match your clothes”
”Deal!”
Jiao Yuan got what he wanted so he went back to his roo The end of the terift
Mama Jiao stepped out of kitchen with a dish and said to Papa Jiao, ”Did he ask for things again?”
”Kids of this age are so predictable”
”Will you really allow him to dress like that if he makes it into the top 5?”
”Don't worry You just need to take hie his o for the toy gun He wanted one since last year, but was only 6th in his class”
”What if he can't make it this time?”
”He was the one who set up the rules, and he has to be responsible for what he says If he really failed, still buy him one but make him choose one of the set what he wants even if he doesn't live by his words,” Papa Jiao said calmly
