Go back to the prosperous days and become a layman

Chapter 705 Chapter 704 Don't fight a battle without preparation

"Why do I feel like you have bad intentions?" Xiao Wang blurted out when she saw her husband's subtle expression.

After a couple has been together for a long time, they cannot say that they can see through each other's thoughts at a glance, but they can guess it almost accurately.

"You've changed. You don't love me anymore. You don't even want to listen to what I have to say." Tang Zhitong almost got hurt from holding it in, and said with a resentful expression.

"Okay, then tell me, what's your immature suggestion?" Xiao Wang had never seen anything like this before. For a moment, he felt that he had guessed wrong.

"You see, when you have a fever you have to sweat, right? Once you sweat, the fever will go away. I think you should do some proper exercise. As you know, exercise will make you sweat." Tang Zhitong said seriously.

"This sport you mentioned...is it serious?" Xiao Wang was a little suspicious of her husband. She felt that the sport he mentioned was a little too abstract. She also doubted herself and thought she shouldn't have distrusted her husband.

"Serious. Especially serious." Tang Zhitong nodded seriously.

After hearing this, Xiao Wang did not comment and continued to ask: "What about the bold idea?"

"Look, I have participated in the compilation and review of the Manual. Based on my experience, you are in urgent need of an injection now." Tang Zhitong continued without changing his expression.

"An injection? There's no need for that, right? It's not serious. Besides, it's too late at night to go to the hospital." Xiao Wang felt that he was fine lying in bed and didn't want to move.

"No need to go to the hospital, I have a syringe with a thick needle!" Tang Zhitong gestured with a thick and long syringe, and finally couldn't hold back his laughter.

"Tsk! I knew you had no good intentions!" Xiao Wang understood and heard what was said. She spat at her husband, put the enamel jar of brown sugar ginger water on the bedside table, and slipped into bed.

“Hahahaha…” Tang Zhitong laughed heartily.

As a couple, if they are always serious, the life will always feel boring. If they can make some jokes to relax, they can make each other smile and make the life more interesting.

By the time Tang Zhitong had packed up and was ready to go to bed, Xiao Wang had already started sweating.

"Do you really want to get that injection?" Student Wang felt a little hot and asked, stretching his arm out of the quilt.

"I was just saying that. I was just joking with you." Tang Zhitong shook his head. No matter how curious he was, he couldn't bother a patient.

After that, Tang Zhitong reached out and touched Xiao Wang's forehead, which was sweaty. He stood up and took a towel to wipe her, and said, "Wipe it off if you are sweating. I will find you some clothes to change into when you stop sweating."

"No need to look for it, this is fine. Let's talk about it tomorrow." Seeing her husband with his arms open, classmate Xiao Wang was afraid that he would catch a cold too, so she spoke up to stop him.

"It's uncomfortable to stick to your body. If your sweat wets the quilt, come over to my side later." Tang Zhitong ignored Xiao Wang's objection, found the clothes and placed them next to her pillow, and instructed.

Anyone who has ever sweated knows that although the quilt keeps you warm, once it gets sticky with sweat not only does the friction increase, it also becomes wet and cold, making it very uncomfortable to stick to your body.

"Okay, that's fine. You've been busy all day, go to sleep." Xiao Wang was very happy and enjoyed the feeling of being cared for and treated as a treasure.

"Okay, I'm thirsty and want to pee. Call me when you want to change clothes or something." Tang Zhitong glanced at the bedside, put the thermos and enamel pot beside the bed, and then began to undress and get into bed.

With something on his mind, Tang Zhitong did not sleep well that night. He woke up from time to time to check on Xiao Wang and tuck her in, but in the end he did not experience the feeling of 39 degrees.

Although he has not tried it, Tang Zhitong guessed that it would be more comfortable if the temperature was slightly higher.

Nature’s design for humans is very wonderful. When a woman ovulates, her body temperature will be about 0.5 degrees higher than usual.

0.5 degrees is not noticeable, but married gay men all know what it feels like.

As for how high the temperature is, Tang Zhitong thinks that European sailors in the past have a say because they were keen on bringing ewes when they went out to sea.

As we all know, sheep's body temperature is much higher than that of humans...

Thursday, March 3th.

Early in the morning, Xiao Wang felt refreshed. Although his nostrils were still a little stuffy, his body temperature had returned to normal.

"Are you awake? I'll mix some pickles for you later. Don't eat chili peppers for the next two days." Tang Zhitong yawned, rubbed his sleepy eyes, stretched and got up.

"I think I'm fine." Student Wang protested tactfully while putting on her clothes. For a girl with Sichuan and Chongqing ancestry, the food would have no flavor without spiciness.

"Be obedient. It will take two days at most. If you don't have any other symptoms, you can continue to eat it." Tang Zhitong was unmoved. There is a rule in traditional Chinese medicine that states that one should avoid certain foods whether taking Chinese patent medicine or drinking decoctions.

Generally speaking, raw, cold, spicy, greasy and radish foods should be avoided, which gives people the feeling that they can't eat this or that, as if the ineffectiveness of Chinese medicine is caused by not following the doctor's orders.

"Okay then." Xiao Wang's stomach was reluctant, but since her husband said so in a doting tone, she happily agreed.

After arriving at the Post and Telecommunications College, Tang Zhitong first went to Zhou Zheng's office to ask for leave, as he had no report scheduled for the next day, but he could not come to school yet because he had to participate in the work of planting potatoes in the escort department.

"Just arrange your own things if you have something to do. You don't have to ask for leave for every time. It's best not to fall behind in your studies." After the meeting, all the teachers had reached a tacit understanding and completely turned a blind eye to Tang Zhitong's absences, but it was not easy to say this openly.

"Okay, Teacher Zhou, I promise to pass every subject." In college, 60 points are the best, and one more point is a waste. Although this is still a bit ahead of its time at the moment, the Post and Telecommunications University is not like some colleges that expel students for one point difference, and most of these students come from workers and farmers' families.

Today's report was scheduled for 9:30 in the morning. By the time Tang Zhitong finished it and walked out of the school gate, it was already 11 o'clock.

Because he wanted to learn from Wan Xianghong about the laboratory preparation methods of magnets, Tang Zhitong did not return to the Post and Telecommunications University, but went to the Iron and Steel Institute.

"Brother, I just asked this morning, and Director Ren said that the laboratory matters are still under discussion." Wan Xianghong was a little surprised at Tang Zhitong's arrival, and thought he was here to ask about borrowing the laboratory.

Seeing Wan Xianghong's somewhat guilty expression, Tang Zhitong waved his hands repeatedly: "I didn't come here to borrow the lab. Is that guy still bothering you? Has the school dealt with it?"

"He hasn't contacted me in the past two days. The school may have talked to him." The current environment is ashamed to talk about love between men and women. Wan Xianghong is no exception. Although she can understand why Tang Zhitong did this, she still feels a little embarrassed when asked this question. "It's a good start. Wait for another two days. If the school still doesn't deal with it, tell me." Tang Zhitong didn't intend to let this go. He always remembered Wan Xiangyang's kindness in his heart. If Brother Yang hadn't stood up for him at that time, I'm afraid Old Wan wouldn't have been so obedient.

Even if Wan Xiangyang felt that they were clear of each other, how could he have the unilateral final say on whether they were clear or not?
"Yeah." Faced with the concern of her half-brother, Wan Xianghong felt warm in her heart and nodded in agreement.

"Do you know the laboratory preparation process of magnets?" After talking about Wan Xianghong, Tang Zhitong finally asked.

"Well, after you talked about it last time, I borrowed the lab notes from my senior. Wait for me, I'll go back and get them." After Wan Xianghong said this, he turned around and went back to the classroom.

"Xiang Hong, wait a minute. I see that you are in self-study in this class and it will be lunch time soon. Take your notes and your lunch bowl, and when you get your lunch, we can talk while eating." Tang Zhitong saw that some students were already coming out of the classroom in twos and threes with their lunch bowls, so he made arrangements.

"Okay." Wan Xianghong hesitated for a moment, nodded, and entered the classroom.

When he came out, Wan Xianghong was holding a rice bowl in one hand and a notebook under his arm.

"Borrow your classmate's? Send it back to him, don't delay his meal. I brought my own lunch." Seeing this, what else did Tang Zhitong not understand? In order to prove that what he said was true, Tang Zhitong reached out and took out his lunch box from his bag, which contained not only steamed bread but also pickled vegetables.

Wan Xianghong wanted to be polite, but was rejected by Tang Zhitong.

However, Wan Xianghong finally showed her enthusiasm. While Tang Zhitong was sitting at the dining table reading his notes, she not only ordered food, but also bought some hard dishes with minced meat.

"Okay, I've used up your scholarship. Don't spend money like this in the future." Faced with Wan Xianghong's kindness, Tang Zhitong did not refuse.

"I don't think it's a waste of money to buy anything for you. The school cafeteria has limited conditions, brother, please bear with me." Wan Xianghong was speaking from her heart. She knew that Tang Zhitong drank and even wanted to buy him some wine, but it was not sold in the school.

"How can I be so picky? In our college, dishes with minced meat are the best dishes. Yours are about the same, right?" Tang Zhitong opened his lunch box and pushed the pickled vegetables between the two of them.

"Yeah, that's the same. We came here early today and the dish was sold out in a short time." Wan Xianghong said frankly, but she didn't say that she usually couldn't bear to buy this kind of dish with minced meat.

"Come, eat it while it's hot. I want to try the food from your school too. Let's exchange them." Tang Zhitong saw the steamed bread on the lid of the universal red rice jar and took one on his own initiative. This one was a larger size and a little worse than the one at home.

Wan Xianghong was very touched by the care given, and was more attentive when explaining the laboratory preparation method of magnets.

Some things are difficult to understand on your own, but it is different with the guidance of professionals.

The notes that Wan Xianghong borrowed were very well written, covering everything from the initial ingredients to the final sintering temperature and time. Even Tang Zhitong, a layman, was able to get a general idea after just reading them once.

Now with Wan Xianghong's special guidance, in about an hour, Tang Zhitong has already understood the preparation process of ferrite clearly, from the initial ingredients, grinding, mixing to the subsequent pressing, sintering, temperature and time.

Tang Zhitong knew the approximate ratio of NdFeB magnets, but he didn't know whether the laboratory preparation process of NdFeB magnets and ferrites was the same.

Regarding this point, Tang Zhitong felt that since the main raw materials were magnets, even if there was a difference, it should not be very big. After all, the melting point of iron was there. So he might as well give it a try and see if it works later!

Overall, the trip to the Steel Institute was well worth it.

Wan Xianghong had classes in the afternoon, so Tang Zhitong didn't take up too much of her time.

After graduating from the Iron and Steel Institute, Tang Zhitong still did not return to the Post and Telecommunications Institute, but went directly to the Science and Technology Commission. Now that he has the theory, he has to connect it with practice, right?

In order to get Ding Hui to contribute, Tang Zhitong even bought a newspaper that had not been sold yesterday on the roadside, intending to present strong theoretical basis to Ding Hui like a small vendor who went to Qinghe to resell things.

Ding Hui was surprised by Tang Zhitong's arrival, but he was also very enthusiastic. However, after hearing Tang Zhitong's needs, he frowned: "Do you want to participate in the preparation process of magnets?"

"Yes, I want to see if I can make a magnet that is smaller in size and has a stronger magnetic force." Tang Zhitong lied with his eyes open. He certainly couldn't talk nonsense about proportions.

When it comes to new materials, which one can succeed without thousands of attempts and finding thousands of "mothers" for failures?

If you start by accurately stating the proportions of various ingredients right away, you'll definitely be mistaken for a monster.

Although there was the precedent of Kekulé discovering the benzene ring in a dream, Tang Zhitong did not dare to use this excuse. He was a professional and it was understandable that he dreamed about something during the day, but what did he have?
From any perspective, the process of discovering NdFeB magnets was due to Tang Zhitong's unfamiliarity with the materials, his mismatch of raw materials, and his "accidental" and "extreme luck".

Faced with the powerful theoretical basis in Tang Zhitong's hands, Ding Hui could not make any rebuttal.

In Ding Hui's opinion, Tang Zhitong's request was just a joke, but he couldn't say it directly.

As one of the people who knew the inside story, Ding Hui knew that Tang Zhitong was an inventer and that many of his products had generated foreign exchange, earning considerable foreign exchange for the country.

The instructions in the newspaper were definitely not specifically for Tang Zhitong, but what Tang Zhitong was doing was right within the scope of the instructions!

"Although our Science and Technology Commission and the Academy of Sciences both have the word 'science' in their names, they are not subordinate to each other. I can only say that we should try our best to communicate." This is a difficult task, but Ding Hui is willing to give it a try.

Tang Zhitong nodded after listening, but he knew that Ding Hui only talked about the difficult side. Although the two units had no subordinate relationship, the level of the Science and Technology Commission was higher than that of the Academy of Sciences. It not only managed the general direction of scientific research, but also held funds, which was equivalent to holding the lifeline of the Academy of Sciences.

Even so, the Academy of Sciences should give the Science and Technology Commission some face, right?

In order to make things go smoothly, Tang Zhitong lowered his requirements: "Director Ding, it doesn't matter if it's in the name of visiting and learning or in the name of cooperation, as long as I can get in. I won't ask the Academy of Sciences to build a furnace specifically for me. I just want to make a mold myself, use their materials, borrow their equipment, and customize a few special-shaped magnets needed for my own project. Even if this fails, there won't be much loss, it's just a little material."

"Okay, I got it. I'll call you when there's a result." Ding Hui's brows finally relaxed a little after hearing what Tang Zhitong said. It's just a little material, how much is it worth? It's not like they're going to open a furnace specially. As long as they can catch up with the furnace opened by the Academy of Sciences, it'll be fine.

"Okay, then I'll go back and wait for good news from Director Ding." After saying this, Tang Zhitong stood up, as if he was about to leave.

After sending Tang Zhitong out of the office, Ding Hui left a message: "I'll contact you as soon as possible."

During the entire process, Ding Hui never mentioned the matter of fees, and Tang Zhitong seemed to have forgotten about it.
