I ask you to design equipment, but you do science fiction for me?

After a while, he suddenly spoke up and started discussing with the others.

Although he doesn't understand this field, he has some knowledge of it because of genetic technology.

I've also heard other experts discuss this.

After chatting for a long time, Su Chen's food had gotten cold, and everyone finally dispersed.

Tang Yumo served Su Chen another meal and placed it in front of him with some dissatisfaction.

"Don't forget to eat while you're doing research. Don't ruin your health; everyone is counting on you."

Su Chen smiled, not caring.

He is currently focused on research, but not to the point of neglecting sleep and meals.

After a moment of silence, he asked Tang Yumo what she had been doing lately.
Since completing her research on gene technology, Tang Yumo has basically not had any specialized research of her own.

Tang Yumo shrugged and looked into the distance, saying, "I've been supervising the construction of the Huatian Tianlong for you recently. It's all your hard work."

"I will supervise their work closely for you, and there will be absolutely no problems."

Su Chen smiled and asked about the construction.

Construction of the Tianlong submersible has just begun.

This "just beginning" means that materials are being transported to the construction site, and construction has not yet actually started.

First, gather all kinds of machinery and equipment, prepare enough materials, and then construction can begin.

Because the Tianlong spacecraft is very large, they had to think about some issues before construction began.

For example, where should it be built? Is the location big enough?

If there are mountains or similar structures nearby, they need to be cleared by blasting in advance, otherwise it will affect subsequent construction.

Anyway, there are many things that need to be planned in advance.

Su Chen then asked Professor Wang and Yuan Jingna what they were doing, mainly wanting to know what Yuan Jingna was doing.

Since it had been a long time since they had seen Yuan Jingna, no one knew what she was busy with.

Speaking of Yuan Jingna, Su Chen still felt a bit of a headache.

Once this girl gets busy, she almost disappears without a trace and rarely comes out.

People who don't know him might think he's no longer at this base.

Because he had been too busy recently, Su Chen wasn't really sure if Yuan Jingna was at the base.

Tang Yumo shook his head, somewhat dazed, because he had not seen Yuan Jingna either, nor did he know where she had gone.

His eyes lit up slightly, and he smiled as he took Su Chen's hand. "Let's go see what he's doing. I haven't seen him in a long time."

Upon arriving at the planting base, the two did not find Yuan Jingna.

After inquiring, I learned that Yuan Jingna was working in the research lab and hadn't come out for several days.

In order to better conduct his research, Yuan Jingna set up a room next to the research lab for rest, so it was normal for him not to come out.

I thought Yuan Jingna would definitely be doing research, but when I arrived at the research lab, I didn't find her there.

Tang Yumo arrived at the door of Yuan Jingna's room and gently knocked.

The door opened, and Yuan Jingna stood in the doorway with her hair disheveled, wearing a cartoon pajama set, looking at Tang Yumo with some surprise.

When he found Su Chen, he slammed the door shut with a bang, feeling a little embarrassed. When he opened the door again, Su Chen was already dressed in decent clothes.

"Why did you two suddenly come here?"

After he finished speaking, he invited the two people inside.

The room was spotless, and the blankets were folded neatly.

Tang Yumo deliberately placed her hand on the blanket, feeling its warmth, and teased, "Did you just wake up? This isn't like you."

Yuan Jingna smiled shyly and tidied her messy hair.

"I've been quite busy lately. I just finished my work yesterday, so I'm going to take a good rest for the day."

After he finished speaking, he poured a cup of coffee for the two of them.

Su Chen took a sip and asked him what he had been busy with lately.

"Don't push yourself so hard, take care of your health, don't wear yourself out."

Yuan Jingna tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and said with a smile, "I'm not very tired, but we're about to produce results, so I wanted to get the answer as soon as possible. I stayed up a little late yesterday, but the rest of the time I was just doing normal work."

The three chatted about everyday things for a while, and then Yuan Jingna changed the subject, asking the two people if they had come to see her for something.

He felt that the two people who came to see him must have something on their mind.

Tang Yumo shook her head, glanced at Su Chen, and said with a grin, "Su Chen, I haven't seen you in a long time. I missed you, so I dragged you here to see me."

Su Chen shook his head helplessly and coughed. "I'm currently preparing to build a large interstellar warship. If you're not busy, you can work with me on it."

Upon hearing this, Tang Yumo's eyes darted around, indicating her dissatisfaction.

"Yuan Jingna is a plant expert. Can she do research with you?"

"If Yuan Jingna can do research with you, then so can I. Why don't you ask me?"

Su Chen rolled her eyes and said without any mercy, "You have too bad a temper, you're not suitable."

"I need to find a quiet person to do my research with."

Tang Yumo snorted, flicked her sleeves, and left.

Watching Tang Yumo's departing figure, Yuan Jingna paused for a moment, then asked Su Chen very seriously, "Do you really need to do the research yourself?"

Su Chen nodded. He didn't need Yuan Jingna to cooperate with his research, but rather he needed her to help him study some plants.

These plants are used on interstellar warships. They not only need these plants to grow fruit and provide food, but also to provide photosynthesis and other functions.

However, it is somewhat troublesome to make a plant have multiple functions, so Yuan Jingna needs to conduct research.

When Su Chen told Yuan Jingna about this, Yuan Jingna readily agreed.

This was not a difficult job for him, and it was also his job.

Moreover, he also hoped to do something on the Tianlong in China to provide Su Chen with some assistance.

Because the Tianlong submersible has not yet been successfully built, his work is not particularly demanding at the moment.

Once the external structure of the Tianlong-class destroyer is fully completed, it will go inside to begin its work.

That was when he was busiest; he wasn't in a rush now, as he could help Su Chen with other things.

As Su Chen summarized before, he wanted to build the Huatian Tianlong into an interstellar warship similar to a planet.

Inside this interstellar warship, they can be self-sufficient, and even if a major crisis occurs outside, it will not affect their lives inside.

Both air and plants can circulate and grow inside.

These problems were all left to Yuan Jingna to solve.

As for Su Chen, he should continue to study the core issues.

For example, there were issues with the power system of the Chinese Tianlong submersible, and also with the construction materials used in its construction.

The issue of construction materials is of paramount importance right now. Without the necessary materials, construction is impossible.

Su Chen now needs an extremely hard material so that the Huatian Tianlong can become extremely tough and withstand any danger.

This is a rather difficult task, as their current materials are not quite suitable.

Su Chen also needs to research a new composite material, but ordinary composite materials cannot meet the standards.

Su Chen and the experts spent several months researching and indeed developed several very hard and excellent materials.

However, after applying these materials to the Huaxia Tianlong, they found that these materials were still insufficient to support Su Chen's ideas.

We need some better materials.

These materials not only need to be hard and flexible, but also require the presence of other elements.

Because they have to do a lot of things inside the starship, these materials not only serve to protect the starship, but also have other functions.

For example, photosynthesis, and the effects of temperature, are all factors that need to be considered.

It is extremely difficult to make a material have many advantages.

Su Chen and his team don't have a good solution yet.

When Su Chen goes to bed at night, he considers what kind of materials are suitable for construction.

He came up with a material, but it was a bit far-fetched.

He hopes to develop a self-healing material that will break when damaged by external attacks, but will automatically heal itself.

This is a material that Su Chen wants to research and develop.

However, given their current level of technology and knowledge, it would be difficult for them to research it.

They haven't found anything that can heal the wounds on an object.

In the field of gene technology, they have made some breakthroughs in wound healing.

However, gene technology and materials technology are completely different things, and it is almost unrealistic to combine these two technologies.

However, Su Chen still had Tang Yumo study this problem, hoping to make a breakthrough.

After a period of effort, Tang Yumo and her team developed a medical product that can heal wounds, similar to a liquid.

When an organism's skin is injured, applying this liquid to the wound will cause it to heal slowly.

However, this has little to do with the materials.

Tang Yumo reported this matter to Su Chen, who looked at the information and fell into deep thought.

Is it possible to add this liquid to a certain material, so that the material also has healing capabilities?

He shared this idea with Tang Yumo.

Tang Yumo shrugged with a wry smile; they had already tried it before.

However, there is no material that can mix with a liquid and produce this effect.

Su Chen sighed, put down the documents in his hand, and gently rubbed his temples.

He told Tang Yumo to continue working, while he went to the research lab to conduct thorough research on the liquid.

They analyzed the various elements of this liquid and then tried to fuse various materials, but all attempts ultimately failed.

Su Chen couldn't help but feel a little down.

He had plenty of confidence when he was conceiving the idea.

But now he has encountered too many difficulties, and none of them can be resolved, which makes him feel somewhat uneasy.

The experts, however, continued their work methodically, believing that these difficulties were only temporary.

Su Chen will definitely figure it out, and no one is urging him.

However, Su Chen himself was a little anxious.

It's okay if we can't figure it out now, but if we can't figure it out in the long run, it will definitely affect the whole plan and everyone's mood.

Half a month has passed.

On this day, Su Chen's research finally yielded a discovery.

He developed a material that does not have the ability to heal, but it has an extremely rapid recovery ability.

If a problem occurs in a certain area, it can be replaced with the same material. This replacement does not require cutting out the damaged area; it only requires covering it with the same material to repair the damaged area.

Su Chen was still not entirely satisfied with this material, but given the current situation, there shouldn't be any better materials available.

Su Chen called the experts together for a meeting to discuss whether to use this material.

Tang Yumo and others expressed their support, saying that this was the best material that could be researched so far, and that it was relatively common and not so rare.

It is more than enough for them to build the China Tianlong.

After a vote, it was decided to use this material.

With the materials in hand, construction of the Tianlong submersible officially began.

This project is quite large and requires someone to supervise it personally.

Originally, I wanted to hand this matter over to Professor Wang, but he declined, saying that he was not capable of handling it.

He personally hoped that Yuan Jingna could do this, but Tang Yumo was a little reluctant, feeling that she could do it herself.

Su Chen glanced at him, said nothing, and handed the matter over to Yuan Jingna.

Tang Yumo is indeed capable of handling this matter, but his personality is not well-suited to managing such a large issue.

Yuan Jingna is more reliable, more meticulous, and better at taking care of people than him.

Moreover, many internal designs also require Yuan Jingna to study, so entrusting them to him is the most suitable approach.

Tang Yumo snorted twice and angrily asked Su Chen what kind of work he would be given.

Su Chen smiled and said, "There's a lot of work for you to do. Our Huatian Tianlong needs a lot of space-class mechs. Aren't you researching gene technology? You can integrate gene technology into the mechs and produce some mechs that can fight in space."

"I will build several combat bays inside the Tianlong of China. These warehouses will store mechs, small interstellar warships, and so on."

Tang Yumo was very interested in this matter, nodded with a smile, and led the experts to study it.

As for Su Chen, he still needs to study other core technologies.

However, with the most difficult problem solved, the remaining problems were relatively easy.

They have been researching the power issue and are making continuous progress.

It won't be long before it's fully researched and developed.

Once the power problem is solved, the Tianlong submersible will have few major issues left; the remaining problems are minor and can be successfully developed in a short time.

During the time they were conducting their research, many people were trying to find out more information.

Especially the one above, who would ask about the progress every now and then.

People from other bases were also very concerned about this matter, inquiring about it every few days. (End of Chapter)
