Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 3061 A Game of Insane Difficulty
After the children fell asleep, Ran Qiuye returned to the master bedroom, where Yang Xiaotao leaned against the headboard, rubbing his head.

Seeing this, Ran Qiuye sat on the bed, reached out and placed Yang Xiaotao on her lap, and reached out to relieve Yang Xiaotao's discomfort.

"tired?"

"Tired."

"What's wrong?"

"What else can we do? None of these people in the family are easy to deal with."

Yang Xiaotao closed his eyes and recounted the events of the day.

Ran Qiuye applied slight pressure to her hand, and Yang Xiaotao almost cried out in pain. "You said it yourself, isn't it all because you spoiled him?"

"Look at everyone in the yard, who spoils their child like you do?"

"And our daughters, they're all fearless, it's all because you spoiled them."

As she spoke, she reached out and poked Yang Xiaotao's head, but Yang Xiaotao grabbed her hand, opened his eyes, and laughed, "Wife, these are a bit crooked, how about we practice one more?"

Ran Qiuye paused for two seconds, then understood what Yang Xiaotao meant, "Get lost! You just arrived this afternoon, do you think you can handle it?"

Yang Xiaotao suddenly stood up. "What a joke! You're questioning my abilities, aren't you?"

And so, the second battle began.

The clouds dispersed, the rain ceased, and all was quiet.

Ran Qiuye wiped the sweat from her forehead, then nestled in Yang Xiaotao's arms with dazed eyes.

"Dad, there's something you shouldn't forget."

"what?"

Yang Xiaotao's mind raced as he tried to recall what had happened.

"You must have forgotten again."

Ran Qiuye spoke with a hint of coquettishness, and Yang Xiaotao quickly patted his back, his eyes lighting up, "You mean that thing about adding computer lessons to junior high school?"

"Yes, I reported it to my uncle today, and he also felt it was very necessary."

He also said that this technology requires a large number of people to generate a cluster effect.

"It's also good for the child's future development."

Yang Xiaotao nodded, "I remember. Don't worry, since I proposed this, I will definitely get it done."

"That's great! I've talked to my uncle about this. We need to introduce the children to computers early on, and every junior high school should have a computer lab so the kids can learn more and gain a better understanding."

Ran Qiuye talked about her plans while relaxing her body.

"Well, our computer production is still increasing, and we don't have that many computer instructors. We need to train at least some teachers."

"I suggest that if you want to establish this, you should recruit a group of computer teachers after the New Year. Our department can help you train them. They can master basic operations in three to six months and become competent teachers."

"Once the new semester starts and computer production increases, we'll have a surplus and be able to arrange computers for you."

"What do you think?"

"Okay, I'll recruit people as soon as possible, but..."

"You don't need to pay for training, do you? We've run out of funds."

Ran Qiuye said hesitantly, while Yang Xiaotao shrugged, "Then we'll see how someone performs."

Upon hearing this, Ran Qiuye felt Yang Xiaotao's mischief and blushed.

"Not tonight, tomorrow, tomorrow night."

Yang Xiaotao laughed, "Okay, the teaching is free, and the three meals are free."

"Oh, right, there's one more thing I need to remind you of."

"Ok!"

Ran Qiuye spoke in a weak and listless voice.

Yang Xiaotao reached out and hugged her tightly, then told Ran Qiuye what Zhao Gang and the others had found out.

The next second, Ran Qiuye, who had been feeling weak and sore, suddenly perked up and looked up to ask, "Is this real?"

"It should be fine. Those people's methods aren't very sophisticated, and besides, our quality control department staff are all professionals."

Ran Qiuye nodded; she trusted her man on this point.

"Alright, I'll give you a backup of the materials. You can decide how to resolve this yourself."

"Of course, just let us know if you need any help, after all, we paid for it ourselves."

Ran Qiuye nodded again, then a wave of exhaustion washed over her, and she fell asleep on Yang Xiaotao's chest.

As for Yang Xiaotao, after his period of deep contemplation, he began to think about the computer.

The next day, Ran Qiuye got up early, prepared breakfast, and then left the courtyard with Cuiping.

What Yang Xiaotao said last night is very serious for them.

After talking to Cuiping, Cuiping was also furious. How could she not be angry that such a disgusting thing could still happen under such circumstances?
The two quickly left the courtyard and headed towards their workplace.

Inside Ran Qiuye's pocket, Xiao Wei lay quietly, as Yang Xiaotao had specifically instructed, just in case.

Yang Xiaotao then took Dudu to the Ran family, talked with Ran's mother for a while, and then brought the four little ones to the Ninth Department.

"Kids, have you missed your godmother?"

As soon as she got off the bus, Lou Xiao'e reached out and hugged the little ones, carrying a lunchbox.

Upon seeing this, Rongrong rushed over immediately, and Lou Xiao'e scooped the child up.

Yang Xiaotao parked the car and then said to Duanwu, "Remember to listen to the staff and don't move anything."

"Also, Miaomiao, take good care of your younger brother and sister."

“Tell me if anyone disobeys.”

Miao Miao nodded, "Okay, Dad!"

Yang Xiaotao glanced at Rongrong, who was lying on Lou Xiao'e, and said, "Especially you, don't cause me any more trouble."

LOL

Rongrong stuck out her tongue, and Yang Xiaotao was so angry that his teeth ached.

"Have Lu Tao come find me."

After saying something to Lou Xiao'e, Yang Xiaotao turned and went upstairs.

After Yang Xiaotao left, Rongrong whispered, "Aunt Xiao'e, I said yesterday that Dad bought a pager for my brother."

Lou Xiao'e's eyes lit up, and she immediately smiled, "You clever little devil, Auntie will reward you today!"

"I need a pager."

Rongrong immediately called out, but Lou Xiao'e shook her head, "That won't work, your dad said you're too young."

Rongrong pouted, and then Lou Xiao'e continued, "How about this, this afternoon I'll take you to see how the movie was filmed, okay?"

"well."

Miao Miao also became interested during the Dragon Boat Festival and immediately nodded.

Lou Xiao'e then led the children to play and headed towards the research institute.

In the office, Yang Xiaotao sat at his desk and turned on his computer.

While the computer was booting up, Yang Xiaotao opened his system page.

Looking at the credit section, if I remember correctly, the last time I upgraded my computational proficiency to level 2 was in January of this year.

It's December now, almost a year has passed.

Looking back on the past year, I've only earned about a thousand points, so I've definitely become a bit 'lazy'.

Upgrading to Level 3 Computer Proficiency requires 20,000 credits, which would take about three years at this pace if there are no other sources of income.

But by then, the daylily buds would probably be too cold.

Moreover, the 'Intel 8080 microprocessor' that was a reward for the last upgrade will be released in the United States soon, following the original historical trajectory.

Yang Xiaotao didn't want to lose this opportunity to be the leader.

However, Yang Xiaotao had a headache when he saw the hundreds of design drawings of the 'Intel 8080 microprocessor' in the system space.

These are all schematic diagrams and logic diagrams, but Yang Xiaotao's current knowledge is insufficient, making them somewhat difficult to understand.

To achieve a comprehensive understanding, one must improve their computer knowledge and skills.

In this case, you either have to earn credits or work slowly and painstakingly.

However, compared to the second one, the first one was clearly simpler and made Yang Xiaotao feel more at ease.

After all, the knowledge points provided by the system are definitely not wrong.

Furthermore, Yang Xiaotao can also obtain academic credits from other sources, indirectly supporting research in other areas.

This allows for multifaceted development.

With that thought in mind, Yang Xiaotao focused his gaze on the open computer. This time, it took five minutes to boot up.

I still miss the laptops from my past life that booted up in twenty seconds.

The computer is turned on, and the screen appears.

Several folders appeared on the desktop, one of which was labeled with the words 'Carrier-based Aircraft'.

Albert is about to return, which means the arrival of the Tomcat carrier-based aircraft.

Yang Xiaotao thought of finding inspiration from the Tomcat, then replacing it with the Jingwei engine, domestically produced radar, etc., to create a carrier-based aircraft suitable for the Han Wudi.

If this project succeeds, the system should reward us with at least ten or twenty thousand credits.

Then upgrade the computer, thoroughly understand the design of the 'Intel 8080 microprocessor', and then modify it to create a CPU suitable for Dawn, thus earning another round of credits.

And then there are all sorts of computer software, tools, and games.
Yang Xiaotao felt that many credits were waiting for him to earn.

Oh, right, games.

Yang Xiaotao took a deep breath. "A tall building rises from the ground, and the plan for the day is made in the morning."

"Work, work."

Then, click the mouse on a red five-pointed star icon on the desktop, click guerrilla mode, and run as administrator.

In an instant, a metallic scraping sound came from the computer.

"The sound quality needs improvement."

Yang Xiaotao muttered to himself.

The screen then went black, and after about ten seconds a white screen appeared, with three boxes appearing from left to right.

Below are texts describing the scene: a frozen wasteland, the North-South war, and the island takeover landing.

This is the final version after discussion.

Moreover, this game only has these three maps, and each map is limited to a limited number of players.

Just like in the snowy landscape, there can be six bases on the map, while in the North-South War there are four, and in the island-seizing landing there are three.

In other words, on the snowy map, players will face five enemies.

This time, Yang Xiaotao didn't let the Game Research Institute make things too complicated, dividing the enemies into easy and ruthless ones according to their difficulty.

As for the difficulty...
Taking over the island and landing is naturally the simplest method.

The most difficult thing is dealing with five ruthless enemies.

Thinking about this, Yang Xiaotao felt an itch to do it.

In his past life, he was a ruthless and undefeated man who could take on six opponents single-handedly.

Nod your finger and choose the snowy landscape.

Then select the country.

For the sake of 'harmony', Yang Xiaotao did not allow the research institute to use its real name.

Instead, it adopted the names of eight countries: dragon, bear, eagle, bull, rooster, Japanese chicken, cat, and white elephant.

It's not that we don't want to make more, it's just that the technology and hardware don't support it.

There's only so much memory; it's too complicated and difficult to manage.

There weren't many fancy or elaborate weapons involved.

Each country has only one or two special weapons.

Of course, it's our own country, so of course we have to support it.

The strongest infantry units are deployed.

Main battle tanks are being deployed.

Armored personnel carriers are being deployed.

The White Horse fighter jets were deployed.

And most importantly, there must be nuclear power plants.

It's worth noting that among the countries mentioned above, only three—the Dragon, the Bear, and the Eagle—have such countries; the others should just obediently build power plants.

Of course, to make the game more engaging and interesting, the designers at the research institute came up with some really creative ideas.

Then, under Yang Xiaotao's guidance, all sorts of random things were arranged, such as snipers, Guangling tanks, and missile vehicles.

After selecting an opponent, Yang Xiaotao entered the game screen.

"The visuals still need improvement."

"The reaction time is also a bit slow."

"Hmm, if one game like this goes on, it'll take at least an hour, right?"

While playing, Yang Xiaotao recorded his sensory experiences to facilitate improvements in version 2.0.

"The first step to success is having electricity."

"You have to mine first to make money."

"Then there's the barracks; we need to mass-produce more troops."

Seeing soldiers carrying Type 63 semi-automatic rifles coming out of the barracks, Yang Xiaotao quickly arranged his troops into formation.

"Then came the tank factory."

"We also need a combat laboratory, otherwise we can't develop a nuclear power plant."

Papapa

Suddenly, a series of sounds came from the computer, and Yang Xiaotao immediately knew that he had been attacked by a disgusting sniper.

Sure enough, the soldiers who had just been assigned disappeared one by one.

It's so easy to spawn troops, but they're gone in no time?
The key is to let the snipers keep shooting like this; it won't be long before they upgrade.

Decisively send the tanks to eliminate the snipers.

Before the tank could even get out, four airplanes appeared on the screen.

Done
Yang Xiaotao sighed inwardly.

Sure enough, the newly built mining site was gone.

Looking at the account balance, what's the point of playing around with this little money?

The next moment, just as Yang Xiaotao was preparing to sell his belongings for money, a group of tanks rushed into view.

This time it's really over.

Pong Pong Pong

When the knocking sounded, Yang Xiaotao quickly turned off the computer sound and then slowly exited the page.

"Enter!"

The door opened, and Lu Tao walked in.

"lead."

"Old Lu, have a seat!"

Yang Xiaotao said something, then smiled and said, "I called you here to ask about the computer production situation."

"Did Dean Han give any instructions?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Tao immediately replied, "Sir, Dean Han is basically staying at the factory now, just to produce more computers."

Yang Xiaotao nodded, "I know that, which is why I asked you."

"But then again, the computer factory also needs personal management. We can't expect Lao Han to handle both tasks at the same time."

Lu Tao nodded in agreement. These people were good at research, but they lacked experience in management.

Especially in large factories with tens of thousands of employees, sufficient experience and expertise are required.

At least he lacks confidence in doing so.

Yang Xiaotao only mentioned it briefly; he hadn't actually decided on a specific candidate yet.

The computer manufacturing plant is a key project of the Ninth Department, so we must find a trustworthy person to handle it.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in Yang Xiaotao's mind.

Suppressing his thoughts, Yang Xiaotao looked at Lu Tao and smiled, "How's production going now?"

Lu Tao quickly replied, "Boss, all the downstream supporting factories are also working overtime. With the current power supply, our output has reached 2,000 units per month. If we want to increase it further, we will need more professional personnel and for all factories to speed up their production."

"Now that we have met the needs of the paging stations, we have about three thousand computers in stock this month, but they all need to be installed with the system before they can be used."

Yang Xiaotao nodded. Right now, the computers he was selling definitely needed to have the operating system installed first.

In other words, once the seller buys it, all they need to do is plug it in and turn it on.

As for how to use it, the nine-part set comes with a basic instruction manual; for the rest, you'll have to figure it out yourself.

"Okay, you guys try your best, but three thousand units still aren't enough."

Yang Xiaotao then explained the situation again. Of the three thousand computers, he planned to take one thousand out and put them into Hong Kong to test the waters and see the reaction.

Lu Tao accepted the order and left; he was going to explain the situation to Han Sanfeng.

Yang Xiaotao then turned on his computer and clicked on the five-pointed star.

However, Yang Xiaotao didn't win a single game all morning.

Because the game is too simple and straightforward, some of the skills from my previous life simply cannot be utilized.

Then, Yang Xiaotao was brutally beaten more than ten times.

In the end, Yang Xiaotao switched to the island-seizing and landing strategy, and only then did he successfully win a round.

"Damn it, we still have to live a simple life!"

Winning the game made me feel great, and it gave me a lot of motivation to work.
