The leisurely life of the reborn daddy

Fu Xianghui asked Cao Shujie: "Old Cao, how much money are you going to invest in this laboratory?"

According to what Cao Shujie just described, the future prospects of the "nutrient solution" they developed should be very good.

According to Fu Xianghui's understanding, there are actually similar products on the market, and there is more than one, but the effects of those products are much worse than what Cao Shujie just described.

Fu Xianghui even can't wait to go to the orchard on the mountain to see the strawberries planted by Cao Shujie and the fruit trees he planted to see what the effect is after adding nutrient solution.

After understanding this relationship, Fu Xianghui touched another strawberry to take a look, then put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly. He suddenly understood why the taste of this strawberry was different.

"Are these strawberries also your experimental subjects?" Fu Xianghui asked.

Cao Shujie nodded: "Old Fu, have you ever thought about a question?"

"Our research is still closely related to various plants, but if you only keep your research in the laboratory or on paper, or in various PPT reports, there may be no problem with the theoretical data, but there are still big loopholes in the actual application."

Fu Xianghui listened carefully, and then he heard Cao Shujie say: "I hadn't thought about this at first, but after I came back from Beijing, my parents gave me their orchard. At that time, I found that the fruit trees they planted had problems and had serious malnutrition problems."

"Later, I took out a loan to expand the orchard. Through my gradual cultivation and exploration, I finally understood this principle and came up with this product."

"After all, the 'nutrient solution' I'm researching is for the benefit of various plants. If you don't have personal experience, it won't matter how good the data is."

At the end, Cao Shujie looked at Fu Xianghui and added, "Of course, these are just my personal opinions and cannot be made public."

"How can this not be accepted in public?" Fu Xianghui firmly disagreed.

He thought Cao Shujie's idea was simply great. As Cao Shujie said, if he hadn't practiced it himself, he might not have been able to make this product.

Fu Xianghui looked at Cao Shujie and sighed inexplicably: "Old Cao, you are really different now than you were in the past."

Cao Shujie laughed and asked him, "Old Fu, tell me, what is different about me?"

Fu Xianghui hesitated for a while before saying, "How should I put it? Now you seem more stable, your ideas are more practical, and you consider things more maturely. You are not like some people in our institute who are so ambitious that they want to fly to the sky."

Fu Xianghui thought of himself again. He had been engaged in various theoretical research in the laboratory and then proved his ideas. He never thought of finding a place to practice like Cao Shujie.

It was not until he heard what Cao Shujie said that he suddenly realized how big the gap between him and Cao Shujie was.

This also forced him to rethink the issue.

He wanted to come to Cao Shujie and participate in the project that Cao Shujie mentioned.

Because Fu Xianghui realized that if he returned to the Agricultural Science Research Institute in Beijing, he would not have as many conveniences as Cao Shujie did here, where he could not just be given a piece of land to tinker with and conduct various experimental fields.

"Should I stay or go back?" Fu Xianghui kept thinking about this question in his mind.

For him, this is really a difficult decision.

From the perspective of his family, he must return to Beijing, but from the perspective of personal development, it would obviously be better for him to stay with Cao Shujie.

Fu Xianghui's eyes were full of confusion, but he didn't show it on his face.

Continue to eat, drink and chat with Cao Shujie.

Fu Xianghui also told Cao Shujie what happened at the Agricultural Science Research Institute after he left.

In fact, without Fu Xianghui's explanation, Cao Shujie could guess something. Everywhere is a place of fame and fortune, and the research institute is no exception.

There is no direct conflict of interest between different research topics, but the same topic will also have the problem of competing for credit.

Moreover, the project funds within a period of time are limited. If you have the funds, his funds will be gone. Who wouldn’t want to compete?

Some people also want to be the first author on a published paper, and there are many such cases.

Fu Xianghui is also very tired. There are human relationships and open and covert struggles everywhere, unless he leaves that world of fame and fortune.

Thinking of all the bad things and the fact that his wife couldn't understand him, Fu Xianghui just felt tired and inevitably drank too much at night.

……

The next morning, Cao Shujie and Fu Xianghui drank a bowl of beef soup and ate two beef patties at a farm restaurant. Then they went up the mountain to check on the growth of the strawberry and kiwi trees.

When he actually saw the strawberry plants and kiwi trees, and saw the plants and kiwi vines growing well, Fu Xianghui realized that the nutrient solution researched by Cao Shujie was so effective.

"Did you come up with this yourself?" Fu Xianghui still found it unbelievable.

Cao Shujie explained the general principle to him. Without Cao Shujie's explanation, it felt like there was a wall between them and it was difficult to understand what was going on.

But after he finished speaking, everything became very simple, and Fu Xianghui could understand the reason.

This was something that Cao Shujie had spent more than ten years researching in the research institute in his previous life. When he resigned from the research institute in this life, he had not yet started working on the research project of the nutrient solution. Therefore, Fu Xianghui did not suspect that Cao Shujie had started to get involved in this area while in the research institute and used his power for personal gain. Naturally, there was no question of the ownership of the nutrient solution.

Now Cao Shujie has set up his own laboratory and purchased various experimental equipment. The huge investment shows that he is going to do something big. Fu Xianghui really wants to work with him.

When they came down from the orchard, Cao Shujie drove him to the second factory of Xuemeng Food Factory.

Here, Cao Shujie introduced him to the three major components of the factory.

Aimeng preserved fruit production line, fruit wine and juice production line, and a laboratory under construction.

Especially when visiting the laboratory located at the northernmost end, Cao Shujie specifically explained to Fu Xianghui the purpose of this building.

"It will be completed soon. We will speed up the decoration after completion. The decoration will be completed this year and it will be put into use next year." said Cao Shujie.

This time is not too late, and they can conduct experiments in other places in the early stage, so there will be no big problem.

Fu Xianghui naturally knew this truth. He nodded and didn't say much.

He was weighing in his mind whether to go or stay.

After coming out of the laboratory under construction, Cao Shujie said seriously this time: "Old Fu, I believe you should understand that this is a very promising product. I personally hope that you can stay and help me. I can help you solve the problems of income, housing, and your son's schooling."

"But if you really can't leave, I won't force you."

"Give me a week and I'll go back and think about it." Fu Xianghui said.

Cao Shujie smiled and nodded. It was only a week, he could afford to wait.

But if Fu Xianghui kept him hanging for a few more months, Cao Shujie would definitely not wait any longer.

There are many talented people in this world.

To be honest, he is one, Fu Xianghui is one, and there are other talents.

But from Cao Shujie's personal perspective, there are not many people he can trust, but Fu Xianghui is definitely one of them. ...

Fu Xianghui asked for two days off this time and told his wife that he had to work two all-nighters at the research institute and that time was very tight.

After having lunch with him at noon, Cao Shujie sent him to Yiling Railway Station and watched him get on the train and leave.

Tong Jiayi also came over, and Cao Shujie made a special trip to meet him.

Tong Jiayi's attitude was very firm. He had already decided to follow Cao Shujie without hesitation.

This made Cao Shujie feel very relieved.

Since he gave the list to Wang Zhifeng, it means that Tong Jiayi is capable.

Moreover, Tong Jiayi is one of the people that Cao Shujie thinks is very likely to be brought over.

As expected, he was not disappointed.

However, the laboratory has not been completed yet, and the equipment he purchased has not yet arrived, so there is no rush for research.

Cao Shujie asked Tong Jiayi to familiarize himself with the situation here first.

Tong Jiayi is single and doesn't care about the environment at all. He looks a bit like a workaholic and wants to find something to do every day.

……

After returning from the town, Cao Shujie thought about the fact that he had been accompanying Fu Xianghui and Tong Jiayi for the past two days. His sister had just returned from the city, but he was too busy to take care of her.

When he returned home, he saw his sister playing with his son Cao Yirui in the yard. The little guy was not afraid of his aunt. He kept getting closer to her and asked her to carry him around.

It's such a hot day, it's amazing that his sister has such good patience.

"Brother, are you done with your work?" Cao Huifang asked specifically when she saw her brother coming in.

Cao Shujie nodded: "I just finished my work. How about you? How many days do you plan to stay at home?"

"I don't have anything to do recently, so I'll stay for two more days," said Cao Huifang.

Cao Shujie was puzzled and asked her, "Where is your classmate? Is she in the city?"

"No, she bought a Magotan for her father and went home to give the car to her father. I guess with her personality, she will show off at home for a few more days after she finally gets the chance to show off." Cao Huifang said.

She recalled that afternoon, after having dinner at Xinjiang Hotel, she and her good friend Deng Miaoshan came out of the Five Star Department Store and went to the 4S store in the south to buy a car. She thought it was quite interesting.

After much deliberation and comprehensive consideration, her best friend finally bought a Magotan, the 2017 330TI Leading model that was just launched last year.

The discount was less than 20 yuan, which was enough for her to pay the full amount for the car.

Deng Miaoshan sent her a WeChat message these two days, saying that her father saw the new car she drove back and was stunned to find out that it was a gift for him.

Then he cried with joy.

Deng Miaoshan told Cao Huifang that she cried too!
After living for more than 20 years, this is the first time I feel that I have done something useful for this family.

As for other things, Deng Miaoshan didn't say anything, but she specifically told Cao Huifang that she wanted to stay at home for a while longer.

Originally, Deng Miaoshan's parents were very dissatisfied with her quitting her job in the system and running to the south like a crazy girl, but later they were afraid of irritating her again, so they didn't mention it again.

But this time, when they saw the new Magotan car that their daughter bought with full payment without a penny from the family, the old couple no longer had any grudge against their daughter for quitting her job in the system.

They felt that this showed that their daughter was indeed capable and could earn money, and that she would be able to take care of herself in the future even without relying on their connections, so they felt relieved.

Let her do whatever she wants.

According to Deng Miaoshan’s father, he accepted his daughter’s intention of buying a new car, but they did not want the new car. He decided to let Deng Miaoshan drive it away by herself so that it would be convenient for them to do business in the future.

But Deng Miaoshan was also stubborn. She told her father clearly that the new car was bought for him, and she also said that she would earn more money to buy her mother a decent gift.

Cao Shujie found it very interesting when he heard his sister telling the story of her classmate Deng Miaoshan buying a car for her father.

"Fangfang, your classmate is pretty good. You two have made a lot of money during this period." he asked.

Cao Huifang curled her lips and said, "Brother, compared to the money you make, what we make is nothing."

"How can you think like that?" Cao Shujie felt that his sister's idea was wrong and said to her: "If that's the case, there is a big gap between me and Lei Jun, and I am also far behind Xiao Ma."

"Even if it's Zhang Yiming from Toutiao, I can't compare to him."

Of the people his brother mentioned, Cao Huifang had only seen Lei Jun, and had only heard of the names of the other two but had never seen them in person.

"Brother, you will definitely be able to do it in the future." Cao Huifang said.

Cao Shujie laughed: "You are more confident than me."

"That's right, who is my brother? He is Cao Shujie, the Party Secretary and Village Director of Caojiazhuang Village, Qingshi Town, Pingyuan County, Yiling City! Isn't he awesome! Haha!" Cao Huifang laughed while hugging her nephew Cao Yiru.

When she talked about her brother, her tone was full of pride and honor.

The little guy didn't understand why and laughed along with his aunt.

Cao Shujie puffed out his chest, and inexplicably felt like he was two centimeters taller.

In the afternoon, Cao Shujie was thinking about picking up his daughter from school, but his sister took the initiative to take on this task, ran out ahead of him, and drove to the town.

Cao Shujie didn't care about her. After his wife came back, Cao Shujie told her what had happened in the past two days.

Cheng Xiaolin also asked him about the situation of Tong Jiayi and Fu Xianghui. She also knew that her husband attached great importance to this laboratory, so she asked him how it went this time.
How sure are you?

"It's not a big problem. If it doesn't work, I'll do it myself!" Cao Shujie was ready to do something big.

Cheng Xiaolin never expected her husband to say that.

But the more this happens, the more it can be seen how seriously her husband takes this matter.

"Isn't Manager Wang out? Is there any news from him?" Cheng Xiaolin asked him.

Cao Shujie shook his head. There was still some news in Beijing, but things were not going well in Shanghai. The three people he told Wang Zhifeng about were all like stubborn stones and none of them was easy to talk to.

Wang Zhifeng also called him to report the situation, but Cao Shujie asked him to come back first.

"Manager Wang is on his way back now. I am considering the next step of cooperating with universities." Cao Shujie told his wife. (End of this chapter)
