The Red Era, the Opening University Speech

Chapter 416 We have to think of a way to teach him a lesson

A group of people walked into the station, stood on the platform, looked towards the north, and waited quietly for the arrival of the train.

Fortunately, the train was not delayed.

After about 10 minutes, the sound of the whistle could be heard from afar.

Hearing the voice, everyone was shocked and looked over at the same time.

I saw a train, its headlights emitting bright light, slowly approaching through the dark night.

……

With a "puff" sound, the special train stopped steadily at the platform.

However, Qin Feng and others waited for a long time, but no one got off the car.

After a long time without any movement, everyone felt strange and anxious.

If something goes wrong, it will undoubtedly be a huge and irreparable loss for the Xia Kingdom.

Just when someone couldn't wait any longer and wanted to go in and ask.

Guan Jianmin walked quickly out of the train.

Before he could speak, Qin Feng asked anxiously, "What happened?"

"Nothing happened." Guan Jianmin was shocked to see so many leaders and quickly explained:
"It's Consultant Li. He seems to be immersed in thought and didn't notice that we have arrived at the station."

"We wanted to wait, but after waiting for a long time he still didn't respond."

"How about...I go call him now?"

After he said that, he was about to walk into the train.

But before she could turn around, Qin Feng grabbed her wrist.

The latter said urgently: "Don't shout!"

"Ah?" Guan Jianmin turned his head in confusion.

It seemed that he felt that the voice just now was a little loud and was afraid that it would disturb Li Mu.

Qin Feng whispered: "Since Li Mu is immersed in his thoughts, we should just wait here and we must not disturb him!"

After he finished speaking, he turned around and looked at Guo Mo and the generals.

Everyone nodded slightly.

"Just stand there a little longer. Maybe during this time, Li Mu can build a big satellite for us!" Guo Mo whispered in a teasing tone.

They originally came to welcome Li Mu, so it didn't matter how long they had to wait, so they didn't care at all.

On the contrary, if you are in a hurry to see someone, or feel that you have lost face and are dissatisfied, it would be counterproductive to call Li Mu out now.

What is face? Can it be as good as the Xuanniao-1 helicopter?

You know, the performance data of this helicopter are unique in the world.

In the past, only Emperor M and Big Brother had top-notch helicopters.

Now they have too.

Not only that, but the gap has also widened to a huge level, causing both helicopters to fall from the top to the first-class.

When treating such an important scientist, we must respect him but also be cautious.

Who knows what Li Mu is researching at this moment? What if it is something comparable to the Xuanniao-1 helicopter? If they disturb him a little, they will not be able to sleep at night.

So, everyone waited quietly at the exit of the special train carriage without making any sound.

……

The sky is getting brighter.

Inside the carriage, Li Mu stood up, looked at the pile of manuscript papers piled up on the table in front of him, and stretched lazily with satisfaction.

"Finally done," he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

In order to memorize the key information of Type 99, he recited it day and night in the past two days.

However, even so, it is incredibly difficult to memorize hundreds of GB of data.

So in the end he could only memorize by focusing on key points.

The core information must be memorized, but for those that are not so core, you can write an outline on paper and write down the key research ideas.

In this way, although it would take more time to study in the future, he could memorize everything before Ask left Kyoto.

While putting away the manuscript paper, Li Mu shouted, "Jianmin, is there anything to eat? Give me some."

After shouting, there was no movement for a long time.

Just as I was wondering, Wang Ya walked in from the door and said:

"You can eat later if you want to. While you were in a daze, Leader Qin Feng and the others have been standing outside for a long time."

"What!" Li Mu was shocked and filled with surprise.

After Wang Ya said this, she realized that the "bang bang" sound of the train running in her ears had long disappeared, leaving only silence.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly prepared to go out.

But at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded, saying: "No need to come out, we are in."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Feng walked in from outside the room, holding a bowl of egg custard in his hand:

"Xiao Guan said you stayed up all night. You, you, you, I've told you so many times that you should take care of your health, don't you know?"

"You must be hungry by now. I asked the comrades at the station to make it."

"Eat quickly. There's more. Fill your stomach first, then go back and take a good rest."

As he said that, he placed the egg custard in his hand into Li Mu's hand.

Just now outside, Qin Feng certainly didn't just stand there, he asked Li Mu about his performance in the car over the past two days.

Looking at the steaming egg custard in his hand, Li Mu's eyes reddened slightly and he said, "Thank you, boss, but I don't need to rest."

The war with India was imminent and he still had a lot of things to do, so there was no way he could stop at this moment.

"You said no, but your eyes are red from staying up late. Why is it that my words are no longer effective?" Qin Feng said firmly.

Although he came to the station to greet him and did have something to discuss with Li Mu, there was no rush.

Even superiors would do the same, and would even give him a few days off first.

Li Mu wanted to say something else, but Qin Feng didn't give him the chance to speak. After he finished speaking, he turned around and left with Guo Mo and others who had just walked in.

Before leaving, he specifically instructed Guan Jianmin to make sure Li Mu had a good rest.

Seeing this scene, Li Mu was moved and helpless.

……

Here.

After Qin Feng came out, he first apologized to the old generals who had waited with him for a long time, and said:

"Li Mu has been through two days and now he urgently needs a rest."

"Everyone has been waiting for a long time, but now is really not a good time to meet."

"I want to apologize to you on behalf of Li Mu."

He just finished speaking.

A group of veteran generals hurriedly said, "It's okay, it's okay. Advisor Li's health is more important."

It is obviously impossible to have no opinions in mind.

After all, so many people waited for a long time, but in the end he came out without even saying a word.

But after hearing Qin Feng's words, and knowing that Li Mu had worked for two days and two nights doing research for the country, he no longer had any objections.

Why shouldn't they respect such a dedicated scientist who is always thinking and researching?

"That's good." Qin Feng nodded, and then said: "Then let's postpone the originally scheduled meeting for two days to let Li Mu have a good rest before continuing."

He made the decision straight away.

The veteran generals had no objections.

Originally, Li Mu was the protagonist. If Li Mu was not there, the meeting would definitely not be able to continue.

After saying this, Qin Feng and Guo Mo got into the car again and headed quickly to a small courtyard.

……

In the superior's office.

When I learned from Qin Feng and Guo Mo that Li Mu had been doing research on the special train for two days without sleep.

The superior who was reviewing the documents put down his pen without saying a word and hurried out:
"This Li Mu is simply outrageous. He won't listen no matter how many times I tell him to."

"I think I have to teach him a lesson this time."

"Otherwise, you might do it again in the future. If something goes wrong...if something goes wrong..."

He sounded angry, but his tone was full of worry.

"If something goes wrong, where will the technological path that the country has just found go, and who will be in charge of it?" Qin Feng and Guo Mo unconsciously filled in their minds what their superiors had not finished saying.

But despite their thoughts, they were still moving fast, so they quickly stopped the man and explained, "Don't worry, leader, we have already criticized him and ordered him to rest."

"It's always like this. Has he learned his lesson? I think we need to think of a way to make him remember it." The superior leader paused and then said.

As the saying goes, the deeper the love, the more severe the criticism.

Qin Feng didn't say anything and looked at Guo Mo.

He is definitely not as familiar with Li Mu as the latter.

The superior leaders naturally looked over there.

Seeing this, Guo Mo couldn't help but sweat profusely and said, "Leader, there's nothing I can do about this!"

Even if he had an idea, he wouldn't dare to say it.

If the punishment is too severe, it will offend Li Mu.

It is useless to impose fines and offend superiors.

No matter what you do, it’s wrong, so you might as well play dumb.

Seeing Guo Mo's face full of rejection, the superior leader and Qin Feng withdrew their gazes.

They also know that this is not an easy task.

We do need to be cautious when dealing with Li Mu and not make hasty "punishments".

Otherwise, if it's too light, it won't be effective, and if it's too heavy, I'm afraid it will hurt Li Mu's feelings. I have to handle it well.

Thinking of this, the superior leader walked back and said, "Forget it, remember it first and go find him later."

Originally, he planned to go over there and criticize him in person.

But then I thought, Li Mu should have just rested at this moment, so it would be better not to disturb him.

Hearing this, Qin Feng and Guo Mo looked at each other and couldn't help but smile.

They said “remember”, but how could they not know? Could the superiors really bear to scold Li Mu?
……

the other side.

Li Mu returned to the special building and fell asleep immediately.

He slept until the sun set and gradually woke up from his bed in a daze when it was dusk.

After putting on your clothes, leave the bedroom.

Just as I was about to go to the kitchen to get something to eat, I saw Wang Ya coming out of the study and asked, "Are you awake? Do you want to eat?"

"I want to eat, but I'm afraid it won't be enough if you cook by yourself." Li Mu touched his stomach, and his hungry stomach kept making waves of groans.

The egg custard I had in the morning was just enough to fill my stomach, but it has been completely digested without leaving any residue.

Wang Ya said, "Then I'll call Guan Jianmin and ask him to go to the canteen in the institute and bring some back."

Li Mu nodded slightly, then walked into the study.

There was a book on software engineering on the desk, and the information that he had spent two days recording was neatly placed on the corner of the desk.

Just as he was about to step forward.

After finishing the call, Wang Ya came back and said, "My superior called and said he would give you two days off."

"What? Give me a day off, are you kidding me?" Li Mu widened his eyes.

He was planning to make a big splash as soon as he came back, but he was banned as soon as he landed?

Wang Ya said:
"Who made you stay on the train day and night for two days? And you didn't listen when I advised you."

"Now I know I was wrong, it's too late!"

"Just take a rest and don't think about continuing your research secretly. The leader asked me to keep an eye on you."

After she finished speaking, she skillfully took out a small lock from her pocket and locked the study door with a "click".

"Not really. I'm going to call my superiors and report something important!" Li Mu was still unconvinced.

He still didn't believe that he had leaked the news about the Type 99 heavy tank, and the higher-ups could bear to punish him by giving him two more days of rest. Hearing this, Wang Ya continued, "Don't fight. The leaders said they knew you would do this, so they won't contact you in the next two days."

Hear this.

Li Mu was completely at his wit's end.

I really didn't expect that the higher-ups would be so determined to allow him to spend these two days of vacation in peace.

——Knowing that I couldn’t resist the temptation of what he offered, I simply refused to listen.

"There's no problem with resting, but I just woke up. I can't go back to sleep after eating. What's the difference between that and a pig?" Li Mu muttered softly.

The only solution for now is to hope that my wife can be more flexible.

But he mumbled for a long time.

Wang Ya didn't react at all. Instead, she crossed her arms and had a half-smile on her face.

Although it is for research work.

But she still felt a little angry at Li Mu's insistence on staying up for two consecutive nights.

Seeing this, Li Mu had no choice but to say, "How about we make a deal and give me three hours every day?"

Wang Ya didn't say anything.

"Two hours is fine." Li Mu tried to lower his requirements.

Wang Ya still didn't speak.

However, a smile gradually appeared in his eyes.

Now the initiative is entirely in her hands.

As long as she doesn't give in, Li Mu will never be able to enter the study.

Of course, it is not impossible to do research outside.

But after Li Mu finished writing the information, he couldn't remember it clearly when he woke up.

Without it, work will inevitably be bumpy.

Finally, Li Mu said helplessly: "One hour, just one hour, no less!"

His pretended sad and angry expression successfully made Wang Ya's tense face smile.

"One hour, not even a minute more." Wang Ya said.

Li Mu nodded repeatedly and said:

"no problem."

"How about starting today?"

"No, no, I just got back today and I'm so tired. How about half an hour?"

After he finished speaking, he looked at Wang Ya with a trying look.

It was a pity that the latter ignored him completely, snorted softly and went straight back to the room.

Li Mu had no choice but to continue resting after finishing the meal brought by Guan Jianmin.

……

The next day, early.

The sunlight was strong, shining into the bedroom through the gaps in the curtains.

Li Mu said he was not sleepy but fell asleep as soon as he got into bed. His eyelids moved and he slowly woke up.

I slept for a whole day and night.

Now he only had one feeling - comfort.

The warm sunlight fell on my body, and I stretched lazily.

He got up, dressed, and went to the living room.

But Wang Ya is not staying at home today.

After all, including the time she spent in the three provinces, she had already taken five or six days off.

If she continues to invite them, the institute won't mind, but she will feel embarrassed.

“Now that you mention it…” Li Mu looked towards the study.

As expected, there was a small lock hanging on it.

He stepped forward, stared at the lock, and held out his hand.

With a "click", the lock opened.

"I am really strong." Li Mu clapped his hands in satisfaction, and then prepared to restore the lock.

After all, since I promised to take a rest, I can't go back on my word.

The temptation of research is certainly great, but there will always be a second time after a first time.

Once Wang Ya finds out, I won’t be able to get it for even a minute, let alone an hour.

However, just when Li Mu was about to lock it again.

--The lock is broken!

Looking at the broken lock in his hand, Li Mu slapped his forehead.

There is no other way but to buy another one later.

"Let's get something to eat first." Li Mu put the lock into his pocket and went to the kitchen.

There were eight or nine lunch boxes on the stove, probably left by Wang Ya.

After heating it for a while, he began to eat it with relish.

……

Department store in Kyoto.

Xiao Du is an ordinary salesperson.

In the past, she was responsible for selling televisions, and she only had a few orders every ten days or half a month.

It's not busy, but it's not fun either.

So she would often go to other sales clerks to help out and do more work.

Because of this, she was even commended by the director.

But in recent months, she hasn't been able to do that.

Since semiconductor televisions were launched, many people have come into the store every day to watch and buy televisions.

When it's busy, we even have to transfer people from other places.

Of course, not everyone comes in to buy a TV.

After all, the price of hundreds of dollars is still quite expensive.

Even if people can already afford it, they are still reluctant to spend the money.

But this does not prevent them from coming to take a look and satisfy themselves.

For example, the young man in front of me.

A man wearing washed-out clothes and with a dark complexion came in and looked around for a long time without asking a single question.

Xiao Du stared at him for a long time, then suddenly stepped forward and asked:

"What have you been looking at?"

The young man was startled when he heard someone calling him, and quickly explained:
"I just came to take a look."

As soon as he finished speaking, another middle-aged guest walked in from outside.

As soon as you enter the door, go straight to a certain location.

When he saw a familiar semiconductor TV still lying there intact, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Then he shouted directly: "Someone come and help me wrap it up."

As he spoke, a blush appeared on his face.

Xiao Du looked at his colleagues around him, and everyone was busy with something.

So she said "Wait for me here" and walked towards the guest who had just spoken.

After determining which TV the other party needed to buy, she expertly packed it and explained the installation and usage tutorials to the other party.

The middle-aged guest grinned and said:
"No need to introduce it. I've heard it several times. Comrade, just pack it up for me."

"I've asked for leave and I have to get back to the factory. I can't delay my work."

"The country has given me the opportunity to work, so I can't be lazy and must work hard!"

His tone was full of gratitude and pride for his country.

Hearing this, Xiao Du kept moving his hands and said with a smile: "Brother, you are a worker who entered after the 'factory construction', right?"

She was good at chatting and immediately caught the middle-aged guest's attention.

The latter immediately couldn't help but say:
"You guessed it right. I was just a temporary worker before, and my salary was less than 20 yuan."

"But this is not because of my inability or lack of effort, it's simply because there are no vacancies in the factory."

"It was not until many factories were rebuilt that I became a regular worker. Not only did I have enough food to eat, but I even had a TV..."

The middle-aged male guest talked incessantly about his life experiences.

Xiao Du has become accustomed to this.

After all, in the past few months, there have been many workers like the middle-aged male guest.

But even though she has listened to it many times, she still likes it very much and never gets tired of it.

Just when the middle-aged guest said that his family was a little more well-off and he wanted to buy a TV for his children.

Xiao Du also finished packing and said, "Brother, I have packed it for you. Take care."

"Okay, comrade, you did a great job. If I buy other electrical appliances in the future, I will come to you again." The middle-aged customer grinned.

Then he picked up the TV and left.

Then, Xiao Du turned around and looked at the place where the young man had just stood.

I originally thought that the other party might have already left.

I didn't expect that he actually listened to her and stood there motionless.

"Hey, idiot, are you still watching TV?" Xiao Du walked up and asked.

The young man who was staring at the middle-aged guest's back was startled again and said quickly:
"No, no, I, I can't afford it."

His face was full of embarrassment and he was ready to leave immediately after he finished speaking.

Xiao Du stopped him, looked at him for a moment, and said:

"I know you can't afford it. You look like a student from out of town. How can you have so much money at your age, right?"

The young man nodded without saying anything.

Although he was admitted to university, he received a subsidy every semester.

However, those subsidies are barely enough for living.

Of course, if you live frugally, you can save a little.

But with that money, it would be better to send it back home to help my younger brothers and sisters improve their lives.

It is not easy to fill your stomach, let alone buy a "luxury" like a TV.

"But just because you can't afford it now doesn't mean you won't be able to afford it in the future, right?" Xiao Du said with a smile.

She said she was not mistaken and that the man must be a college student.

Just about to ask the other person's name.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded, "Gao Jialin, why are you here?"

Hearing someone calling him, the young man turned around.

When he saw who was coming, he felt as if struck by lightning and froze in place.

The same went for Xiao Du beside him, who stared at the familiar figure with his eyes wide open, his mouth wide open in surprise.

Although he was wearing a pair of glasses, upon closer inspection, it was clearly Li Mu.

"Li, Li..." Xiao Du almost lost his voice.

Seeing that he was recognized.

Li Mu quickly raised his finger and made a "hush" gesture.

There are a lot of people in the department store, and if he is discovered here, it will definitely cause a sensation.

"Consultant Li, it's really you!" Xiao Du finally reacted and hurried forward, suppressing his excitement.
