Era: Starting from divorce from female college student

Chapter 235, Research and Development Direction Plague
It was August 1961, the hottest day of summer.

In the past two months, there has only been one rain in the capital, and it was a light rain.

In the past three years, rainfall across the country has dropped sharply. Even if there are occasional major floods, the lack of well-built reservoirs cannot store the rainfall, which instead causes flood disasters.

"Dad, why is it so hot now? Grandma said it hasn't rained in a long time."

On Zhongguancun South Street, in the Zhao family yard, Zhao Huijun was waving a fan, with beads of sweat on her forehead. Looking at Zhao Mancang who was busy making a small rocking chair next to her, she sighed and said.

Under normal circumstances, when she saw her father, she would definitely rush over to hug him.

But now it's summer and it's so hot that she's not as clingy as before.

"It's the Little Ice Age now, the weather is abnormal, so there's a food shortage across the country."

Zhao Mancang responded without looking up.

He needed to make the rocking chair as soon as possible and let Little Stone sit on it.

Little Shitou is now over one year old and has learned to walk, but he is very clingy.

If it were usual, Zhao Mancang would be happy to hold the little guy, but now, he just wanted to let the little guy play by himself.

Don't even think about anything else, the most important thing right now is that he can play by himself, or practice walking well.

"What is a small glacier?"

Soon, Zhao Huijun became a question-maker with a hundred thousand whys, constantly asking questions because she was indeed very curious.

Hu Xiaocao and her four siblings pricked up their ears to listen. Zhao Juntao and Xiao Baozi were also playing nearby, but they didn't want to hear anything.

During this rare leisure time, Zhao Mancang stays at home and his main job is to take care of the children.

He has been in this state since he came back a few days ago.

Cheng Ziyang and other secretaries took time out to go to Guozi Lane, but were told by Wei Huayong and others that Zhao Mancang was already on vacation.

Since he was on vacation, Cheng Ziyang and the others did not visit him and disturb Zhao Mancang's rest.

During the hottest days of August, Zhao Huijun and her classmates were on summer vacation and had nothing to do, so Zhao Mancang thought about doing something else.

So, a rocking chair was made for Xiao Shitou, so that Zhao Mancang could free his hands.

After finishing this work, he put the small stone on the rocking chair, and began to carve a bamboo head next to it in an orderly manner.

This is the southern bamboo. If this kind of bamboo is used for carving, it is very interesting to make beautiful wooden toys.

For example, if it is made into the shape of a tabby cat, it will be a cute and stupid fat cat, which is definitely very tempting to little kids like Zhao Juntao.

At dusk, when Lin Wan returned home, she saw that Zhao Mancang had carved several handmade toys in different shapes, including a tabby cat, a football, a national treasure panda, etc., which made people fall in love with them at first sight.

This kind of manual skill from later generations is indeed a dimensionality reduction blow to people of this era.

There is no doubt that Lin Wan and the others have the ability to appreciate beautiful things.

"Mancang, did you carve all these?"

"Yeah, I had nothing to do. You know, I'm very fast, so I made these in one afternoon."

Zhao Mancang said with a smile, feeling very happy.

Throughout the whole day today, the little ones around him kept exclaiming in amazement, and he has received a lot of praise.

Now I'm waiting for Lin Wan's praise.

"When did you acquire such skills? This is so realistic, so beautiful, so pretty."

Zhao Mancang was extremely happy to hear Lin Wan's praise.

However, Lin Wan asked if she could carve one for her as well?
"What do you want to carve? I'll arrange it right away!" Zhao Mancang said, patting his chest. His wife's request must be met.

"I want a cute little rabbit in the image of the Jade Rabbit from Chang'e flying to the moon. How do you like it?"

It’s true that this difficulty is a little bit, but that’s all.

Zhao Mancang nodded in agreement and started to busy himself without caring about dinner.

However, the sky gradually darkened, and the 25-watt light at home was only moderately bright, so Zhao Mancang could only finish his wood carving work today.

For the next period of time, Zhao Mancang stayed at home, busy with these things and accompanying his family.

It was not until mid-August that his vacation ended because the bulletproof vest had been developed.

Back in May, Wei Changyuan and his team boasted that they would be able to develop it within a month or two, and even develop a bulletproof vest before Zhao Mancang went to North America.

result!

It is already mid-August, and nearly three months have passed before the bulletproof vest is developed. It is somewhat embarrassing.

But no matter what, as long as it is developed, it is a good thing.

"Professor Wei, thank you for your hard work."

In Guozi Lane, in the yard of Longxing Research Institute, Zhao Mancang spoke to Wei Changyuan and others with a smile on his face.

"It's not hard, Director Zhao. We've tested it. This bulletproof vest is fully capable of protecting against 7.62*39mm bullets fired from the Type semi-automatic rifle."

Wei Changyuan gave a detailed explanation of the data, among which the bulletproof vest was tested at a distance of 30 meters. Within this distance, the bulletproof vest can defend against Type 56 rifle bullets, which is really amazing.

However, the bulletproof vest itself is a bit heavy. Wei Changyuan and his colleagues said that the bulletproof vest can be optimized.

While ensuring the protection requirements of the bulletproof vest itself, the weight of the bulletproof vest itself must continue to be reduced, which requires a certain amount of time to optimize, because this requires the development of new materials, such as the development of better fiber materials.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Mancang nodded from time to time to show his approval.

It must be said that people like Wei Changyuan have already entered that state and are very passionate about their work.

Now that the Longxing Research Institute is on the right track, the next step will be a period of explosive growth.

The first bulletproof vest came out, and although it achieved very good results, it ultimately did not meet the requirements of the super bulletproof vest that Zhao Mancang had mentioned before.

Special-grade bulletproof vests are able to protect against 7.62*54mm armor-piercing incendiary bullets fired by sniper rifles, and their weight is also below a specific standard.

Because whether they are soldiers or police, they already need to carry a certain amount of guns and ammunition while performing their tasks, which is already a heavy weight.

If the weight of the bulletproof vest exceeds the limit at this time, for example, reaching 20 kilograms or more, it will definitely have a serious impact on the soldiers.

Zhao Mancang encouraged Wei Changyuan and the others, and then took them to report the matter to the leader.

Now that the bulletproof vest has been developed, after reporting to the leaders, the Tamron factory can officially start work.

In Lingjing Hutong, the leader quickly found time to meet with Zhao Mancang and others.

After learning the specific data of the bulletproof vest, the leader praised Zhao Mancang and others highly, and told them to do it boldly.

You can see that the leader is in a very good mood.

To be honest, the leaders have been in a good mood in the past six months.

Because now they have swords in their hands, they are no longer afraid of being ridiculed by foreigners like Sam and Moscow.

Even at this time, Sam had already developed higher-level atomic bombs and hydrogen bombs.

so what?

For the University of Tokyo, as long as they have the atomic bomb, they will be successful.

Next, missiles, nuclear submarines, bombers, etc. will be launched one after another, and such projects will definitely be developed. Only then will we be truly fearless of others.

The truth is always in the hands of a few people and within the range of cannons.

The truth at this moment is indeed not in our hands, but we are not afraid because we believe that we will definitely catch up.

After leaving Lingjing Hutong, Zhao Mancang and his team began to prepare for the mass production of bulletproof vests.

Starting from the next day, many people came to Guozi Lane.

In order to entertain these people, Wei Huayong spent a lot of money on buying tea alone, but he also received a lot of gifts.

Gifts like special-purpose cigarettes are quite valuable, but the key is that you can’t buy them even if you have money.

There is a department store in Beijing. The first to third floors are open to ordinary people, while the fourth floor is not open to the public.

The fourth floor is the legendary Special Supply Department No. 34!

Many items come from the No. 34 Special Supply Department and are extremely popular. Generally speaking, ordinary people cannot see them.

To Zhao Mancang, these items are just so-so. In terms of scarcity and value, they are not as good as the wooden toys that Zhao Mancang carved for the children a few days ago.

Those who come to Wei Huayong all want to order bulletproof vests.

Tamron's factory hasn't even started production yet, but it already has a lot of orders.

Therefore, this forced Wei Changyuan and his team to set up a bulletproof vest production line as soon as possible, and on the other hand, they had to hurry to purchase more raw materials, otherwise the delivery time would be delayed.

Because bulletproof vests are different from other commodities. They are something needed by the army and are all custom-made. They are one of the guarantees for many soldiers on the battlefield.

Zhao Mancang is very experienced in factory operation and management, but he does not show it.

Besides, these messy and energy-intensive tasks should of course be followed up by the person in charge. Zhao Mancang will focus on the development of the Jiaolong Army and the entire comprehensive organization.

"Professor Peng, is the next research and development focus of our Longxing Research Institute the deep-sea snorkeling equipment I mentioned earlier?"

In the office of Longxing Research Institute, Zhao Mancang was meeting with Peng Xitian and others, mainly to discuss the future research and development direction of Longxing Research Institute.

"Director Zhao, this might be a bit difficult."

Upon hearing this, Peng Xitian's face suddenly turned bitter and he said helplessly.

As we all know, we haven't even developed a nuclear submarine, let alone deep-sea snorkeling equipment.

Even though this deep-sea snorkeling equipment is related to the hundreds of tons of gold in the ocean, and Sam or Kimura may be developing such equipment simultaneously, it is very urgent.

Zhao Mancang could not guarantee that the two underwater locations he knew, where large amounts of gold treasures were hidden, were also known to Sam and Kimura.

With Sam's family's technological and economic strength, if they want to develop equipment capable of deep-sea salvage, they will definitely be able to develop it before Todai.

Kimura's technological and economic strength are much weaker, but he was not bad before.

What Longxing Research Institute needs to do is to develop such equipment before Sam and Kimura, and salvage the gold treasure in the deep sea in advance.

"Professor Peng, it's normal to have difficulties, but what I want to hear more is the solution. Is it a lack of people, technology, or equipment? Tell us and we can discuss it and see if there is a solution."

Hearing Zhao Mancang's words, Peng Xitian took a deep breath and said:

"This is the rough plan we've developed for this deep-sea snorkeling salvage equipment. Director Zhao, you can take a look. We're currently lacking everything. It can be said that we have absolutely nothing."

Zhao Mancang lowered his head and said nothing, carefully examining the documents in his hand.

It is indeed difficult to decide whether to say it or not, but this is not an excuse.

You know, Zhao Mancang likes to challenge difficult tasks.

A few days ago, in order to please the children, Zhao Mancang spent several thousand experience points to exchange for woodworking carving skills.

For Zhao Mancang today, spending a few thousand experience points is no big deal, because he has a lot of experience points remaining.

As time goes by, his experience value balance will only increase.

He looked again at the prices of deep-sea snorkeling and salvage equipment and technology in the system mall.

After thinking for a while, he said to Peng Xitian:

"Professor Peng, I can find a way to see these technologies at Sam's place. If that doesn't work, I'll bring you a few people. I don't believe we can't reach the bottom of the sea several thousand meters deep."

If Zhao Mancang was an ordinary person, it would be difficult for him to reach such a place, let alone a few thousand meters under the sea, even a few hundred meters under the sea.

But Zhao Mancang is not an ordinary person, so he really wants to go to the bottom of the sea thousands of meters deep to see what the world is like there.

What's more, there is golden treasure lying quietly at the bottom of the sea, why not take it out and use it?
Gold mining is not an easy task. The pollution to the surrounding environment and the miners working day and night are all costs.

In Australia, Zhao Mancang invested in a mining company called Nolinasun.

The number of miners in this mining company is probably over 10,000, and is still increasing at an alarming rate.

Because this company has successively acquired several mines and bought several pieces of land with astonishing value nearby.

And they are continuing to invest funds to acquire more mines.

Therefore, Zhao Mancang is certainly very clear about how troublesome gold mining is.

Take the Boddington gold mine as an example. Although it is a gold mine, it is certainly impossible to only mine gold during the production and mining process. There must be other secondary metals such as titanium and copper.

Therefore, a mine needs a lot of miners, and also a lot of skilled workers to purify these metal substances.

In comparison, Zhao Mancang prefers to dig for gold treasures directly.

From the gold jewelry and other treasures he found in the snow cave in the Siberian primeval forest, to after he joined the 108th Department, he gradually obtained a lot of gold from Mindanao.

In addition, a lot of gold and US dollar cash were traded with Sam, Gallic Chicken, etc.

This is the best way to make money.

However, this way of making money is now difficult, so Zhao Mancang can only come up with other ideas.

"Okay, then we would like to thank Director Zhao in advance. However, North America is not our territory after all."

Peng Xitian was very happy to hear this, but he also spoke with worry.

The last time, Zhao Mancang went to North America and sent Zuo Changsheng and others back to the capital. He also brought back equipment from several large merchant ships from Sam.

These production equipments are in extremely short supply for units such as BAIC Manufacturing Plant.

Even on Sam's side, Peng Xitian believed that this must be extremely advanced equipment.

But Zhao Mancang said he would bring the person back if he wanted to, and he was very capable. But Peng Xitian was worried, as horses can stumble and people can make mistakes, so he couldn't help but say a few words.

Zhao Mancang smiled and nodded, indicating that he would definitely pay attention. After all, it was not his first time to visit Sam's place, and he would definitely not underestimate the other party.

Just at this moment, someone came to the door and said someone was looking for him.

"Okay, Professor Peng, our meeting ends here. I wish us success in developing this device and bringing back the gold treasures."

After saying that, Zhao Mancang got up and left.

When Zhao Mancang arrived at the office next door, he didn't expect that the uninvited guest was Shen Zhongxin, the second-in-command of the steel plant, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

"Comrade Zhao, long time no see. Last year, all the comrades in our steel plant were very happy to hear that you had survived."

When they first met, Shen Zhongxin was still a little bit unbelievable and even hesitated to address her.

But soon, Shen Zhongxin recovered and spoke very fluently, with warm and polite words, trying to improve his relationship with Zhao Mancang.

It has been a long time since the two sides sat together and chatted like this.

Zhao Mancang did not have much hatred towards Shen Zhongxin. He was just not very satisfied with Xing Shuqi and Yang Shourong, but it could not be said that he hated them.

In 1958, Zhao Mancang left the steel plant. It was Xing Shuqi and Yang Shourong who made the decision, while Shen Zhongxin, the second-in-command, was unable to stop it.

After June last year, Xing Shuqi and Yang Shourong left the steel plant one after another and went to other units.

If Zhao Mancang guessed correctly, he should have been demoted.

Of course, none of this was done by Zhao Mancang personally, because there were people who were worthy of his personal attention, such as Qi Zhengze and Pei Yimin.

Both of them have passed away long ago.

Generally speaking, people in their forties and fifties are in their prime, but Qi Zhengze and his companions were both struck down by irresistible and serious illnesses, and passed away one after another. Despite the bizarre circumstances, some speculated that Zhao Mancang might have been responsible.
However, doctors from Union Hospital and PLA General Hospital had held a joint consultation, and even several Chinese medicine practitioners from the Health Bureau had tried to diagnose and treat the patient, but unfortunately, it was all in vain.

There are some diseases that really cannot be cured. We can only say that there are too many viruses that humans have not yet conquered.

"Secretary Shen, it's been a while since we last met. What's the matter with you visiting me now?"

Zhao Mancang smiled slightly as a greeting, but he did not show much enthusiasm when he spoke. It was obvious that he did not want to continue dealing with the people from the steel plant.

The people and things of the past are already a thing of the past for Zhao Mancang now.

Now he only cares about his family and his current career. As for everything about the steel plant, it really has nothing to do with him.

Shen Zhongxin sighed slightly when he heard this:
"Mancang, are you still resentful towards me?"

"Secretary Shen, what are you talking about? I have no grudge against you."

Although Zhao Mancang said that he had no resentment and his expression was very serious, Shen Zhongxin knew very well what he was thinking in his heart.

The former is just a polite remark, I don't want to make things so awkward, that's all.

No matter what, for Shen Zhongxin, since he can't get closer to Zhao Mancang, he can only rely on the little bit of friendship from the past to try to wake him up.

However, is it useful?
Useless!

So Shen Zhongxin had no choice. After Zhao Mancang raised his glass again and again and gestured to "serve the guests with tea", he could only tell them the purpose of his visit.

"Comrade Mancang, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. We are indeed in trouble now. We have invited many experts to help, but they are unable to help. If it weren't for this, we wouldn't want to bother you."

"There's a big problem at the Jundushan farm. A major plague has suddenly broken out, killing over fifty musk deer, and several of our keepers have also been infected."

"The situation is very serious right now. Although they have been quarantined for the time being, we are still very worried. After this, I'm afraid the Jundushan Farm will be completely gone."

"Comrade Mancang, we all know that Jundushan Farm was founded by you and is the product of your hard work."

"You are the only one who can save the Jundushan Farm now."

Zhao Mancang was shocked when he heard this.

Shen Zhongxin kept staring at Zhao Mancang's face. Seeing the latter's reaction, he immediately felt that there was a chance, so he continued to increase the weight.

In fact, the original Jundushan breeding farm was founded by Zhao Mancang, and the thirty musk deer were captured by Zhao Mancang and the security department in the Lesser Khingan Mountains in Northeast China.

Even on the way back, Zhao Mancang wasted a lot of experience points to treat these musk deer.

Although Zhao Mancang no longer cared about the Jundushan breeding farm later, and didn't even pay much attention to it.

Because the farm was already on track and growing stronger at that time, Zhao Mancang certainly didn't pay too much attention to it.

But Zhao Mancang never imagined that such a great plague would happen.

After a long silence, Zhao Mancang shook his head and said:

"Let the Jundushan farm be destroyed. It's all in the past anyway. Besides, the capital isn't really suitable for musk deer breeding. The Sichuan and Western Qin regions are more suitable."

When Shen Zhongxin heard this, his eyes suddenly dimmed.

It seems that what happened back then had a really big impact on Zhao Mancang. Faced with such a thing, Zhao Mancang actually "didn't help"?
Zhao Mancang really did not help the person in need because there was nothing to save.

The outbreak of the great plague was definitely not sudden. It must be because the farms themselves did not do the relevant hygiene work well, or other work was not done properly, so such a thing happened.

Before he left, he had already taught all the musk deer breeding techniques to breeders such as Liu Baochan, Zheng Haichao, and Yuan Xiaoxia, but it has only been a few years, and Zhao Mancang guessed that some of them may have become slack.

Musk deer are very delicate animals. If you want to raise them well, you need to put in a lot of effort and be very careful, serious and responsible.

Now that something has happened, it definitely has a lot to do with the breeder himself.

Shen Zhongxin left, leaving with disappointment, his back looking somewhat lonely.

But these have nothing to do with Zhao Mancang.

After Shen Zhongxin left, Wei Huayong walked into the reception room and asked with a smile.

“It’s just what happened in the past.”

Zhao Mancang briefly talked about musk deer breeding. When Wei Huayong heard it, he became interested and asked several questions in succession.

After a while, Wei Huayong finally understood why it was necessary to raise musk deer.

Musk is used as a traditional Chinese medicine simply because musk deer, musk deer, and black musk deer in nature are difficult to catch, and artificial breeding is more in line with the needs of modern people.

If we keep hunting musk deer and other animals that can produce musk, the number of such animals in nature will surely decrease sharply in the near future.

Besides, capturing musk deer is not easy in the first place. Although artificial breeding is difficult, it is a long-term process and can ensure a stable production of musk.

Stability is the key!

"Mancang, logically I shouldn't be interfering in this matter, but have you ever considered that the expansion of Jiaolong Comprehensive Organization is actually for everyone, and also for your children to have a better environment in the future?"

"The destruction of the Jundushan farm may not matter to you, but it is the product of your hard work. It will also be a heavy blow to our country's burgeoning musk industry. Perhaps a major epidemic will strike."

Wei Huayong began to persuade.

"I am truly grateful to you for my son's situation this time. I have no right to persuade you to save the Jundushan Farm."

"But I hope you can consider it. How about our Jiaolong Comprehensive Institution raising musk deer?"

People are like this. Only after being caught in the rain will they think of holding an umbrella for others.

Of course, there are also evil-hearted people who would think of tearing other people's umbrellas apart.

Zhao Mancang suddenly fell silent. He was thinking about his decision. Was it really wrong?
The experience at the steel plant a few years ago is still fresh in his mind, scenes flashing by like a movie, especially that woman whose eyes were full of him. He was also cruel and has never seen her again until now.

Without any explanation, they just distanced themselves from each other.

Even Hu Xiaocao's four siblings, Xu Wenluo, Zhuang Xiaoting and others were strangers to Zhao Mancang, but he often went to meet them.

Although his purpose was to gain experience points, he had already selected a number of Jiaolong soldiers who could help him accumulate more experience points, so he didn't need to meet people like Zhuang Xiaoting, Xu Wenluo and others.

But in fact, he would still make time to meet her every time.

If these people can meet, why can't I meet Liu Baochan?

It can also be regarded as a final explanation.

After thinking about it carefully, Zhao Mancang shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

He is very satisfied with his current life, and there is only one deep-seated reason why he is overly concerned about all this, and that is that he has become arrogant!

When he was in Moscow, he went to the Kobelco Palace Hotel and relieved his stress with a waitress named Valentina Shayk. At that time, he was more or less intoxicated.

Just like he was struggling at this moment.

Watching Zhao Mancang get into the car and leave, Wei Huayong couldn't help but sigh, but he was also helpless.

He had just learned about musk from Zhao Mancang, otherwise he would not have known about it before.

The reason why his son Wei Shouchang was able to live well was also the result of Zhao Mancang's treatment.

"Forget it, I'll think of a solution tomorrow. It's really sad that the farm is gone. After all, it was his hard work."

Zhongguancun South Street, Zhaojia.

After Zhao Mancang came back, there was no trace of the "work look" on his face, and he was in a very relaxed state.

He likes staying at home very much. This is the warm home with his wife and children that he has always been looking for.

Lin Kai and Han Meimei came, and Lin Guohua and his daughter Lin Shuxian also came.

Today is not an important day, we just want to take advantage of Zhao Mancang being at home to have our weekly gathering.

During the meal, Zhao Mancang specifically asked Lin Kai about the breeding room. The latter didn't think much about it and told him the story directly.

In fact, Lin Kai also knew that his brother-in-law didn't like the people from the steel plant very much, so he usually tried to say as little as possible.

But today his brother-in-law asked him about it, so he wouldn't hide anything.

The news of a major plague at the Jundushan breeding farm caused Lin Wan and others to exclaim in surprise, thinking that they had encountered a very bad thing.

In fact, it is not Lin Wan's fault that they are so afraid of the plague, because in history, diseases like plague almost always lead to large-scale deaths, which is a devastating blow to ordinary people.

If things go wrong, a family may lose its inheritance and an entire county may be destroyed.

The sharp decline in population in ancient times was caused by three major reasons: war, plague, and poverty, among which plague ranked second.

Zhao Mancang listened to Lin Wan and the others' questions and gave a brief explanation.

After all, he is a doctor and a veterinarian before, so he is naturally familiar with diseases like plague.

"Brother-in-law, have you been to Jundu Mountain? I heard the situation is quite serious. You founded that farm. If it were to be destroyed, it would be such a shame."

Lin Kai bravely said that he didn't want to "persuade" his brother-in-law because of what Shen Zhongxin or others said, but simply because he felt regretful and sorry.

"Did your leader ask you to say this?" Zhao Mancang looked at Lin Kai with a smile, but the latter shook his head.

Seeing this, Zhao Mancang nodded silently.

His brother-in-law really didn't have the courage, and Lin Kai was not that kind of person. If that were the case, Lin Guohua would definitely teach his brother-in-law how to behave.

The next day, when Zhao Mancang was thinking about whether to go to Jundu Mountain to take a look, Wei Huayong had already talked to him about the incident they had discussed yesterday.

If the steel plant cannot manage the Jundushan breeding farm well, then their Jiaolong Comprehensive Organization will take over.

After hearing Wei Huayong's words, Zhao Mancang was speechless.

"Old Wei, I don't have that much energy to take care of these things. I am a human, not a god."

"You don't have to worry about it, I'll take care of it. I'm bored every day anyway, so I'm just looking for something to do."

"That won't work either. Our budget is all allocated and it's not even enough. We don't have the money."

"Hey, Mancang, I've done some research. This farm is easy to set up and doesn't cost a fortune. Musk is a good thing, and it will bring prosperity to future generations."

Wei Huayong has a detailed understanding of the effects and functions of musk, and he can also find out the difficulty of musk deer breeding.

Most importantly, the Jundushan Breeding Farm is Zhao Mancang’s hard work.

Although Zhao Mancang himself acted very indifferent, Wei Huayong still thought that the former was too embarrassed to do so, so he let him play the bad guy.

Zhao Mancang was speechless and could only say:
"Okay, okay, I'll go to Jundu Mountain. Old Wei, don't get involved. Although we're called a comprehensive organization, we really don't do breeding!"

It is pure nonsense to merge the Jundushan Breeding Farm into the Jiaolong Comprehensive Organization. It is absolutely not feasible.

Of course, what Wei Huayong said about the Jundushan Breeding Farm being his hard work makes a lot of sense.

"Okay, okay, let's go and take a look. I haven't seen a musk deer yet."

Upon hearing this, Wei Huayong was extremely happy and hurriedly pulled Zhao Mancang to the Jundushan breeding farm.

After more than three years, Zhao Mancang came to Jundu Mountain again. The mountain had not changed, but the way up the mountain was very different.

The steel plant did do some work and repaired the road leading into the mountain, making it relatively wider. It also paved the road with a lot of small stones, making the road up the mountain much easier to walk on.

In the past, it was just a small path. Pedestrians and horses could pass through it without any problem, but driving was impossible.

However, it is impossible for a car to arrive directly at the entrance of the musk deer farm. It can only be parked halfway up the mountain, a few hundred meters away from the farm.

"Old Wei, put on this suit, the mask and gloves, and also the foot covers."

After arriving at the parking lot, Zhao Mancang instructed Wei Huayong.

Before coming, he stopped by the General Hospital and asked Li Jinxiong for two sets of protective clothing.

The hospital must have a lot of such sanitary protective clothing, so it’s right to ask them.

After they were both dressed, they headed towards the farm.

At this time, the farm had already been closed to the outside world.

In fact, there is no need for a blockade, because the farm is built at an altitude of more than 1,000 meters, far away from the crowd. As long as we ensure that no outsiders come to the farm, it can be considered isolated.

Therefore, the farms, which usually have no visitors, are almost in quarantine.

"Who are you? Please leave. This is the Jundushan Farm of the Steel Plant. It's not a place for outsiders to come."

Guan Lishan and Han Xiaochuan were guarding the door fully armed. When they saw Zhao Mancang and Wei Huayong coming, they couldn't help but remind them loudly.

The latter two were wearing masks, making it impossible for Guan Lishan and the others to recognize them.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Mancang had no choice but to step forward to prove his identity.

"Lao Guan, Xiao Han, do you still remember me?"

He just pulled the mask down slightly, and Guan Lishan and Han Xiaochuan were stunned instantly.

"I founded the musk deer farm here. It's been almost three years. I never thought I would come back here again."

The Jundushan Musk Deer Breeding Farm was established in mid-August 1958, following a meeting and discussion led by Li Minwei, Director of the Animal Breeding Department of the Ministry of Agriculture, Qian Zongfang, Associate Professor of Beijing Agricultural University, and Tan Taiping, Director of the Important Management Office of the Health Department. Zhao Mancang personally implemented the plan and established the farm.

It has been only three years since its establishment.

After being petrified, Guan Lishan and Han Xiaochuan suddenly became excited.

"Brother Zhao, you're finally back! That's great! The musk deer in there are saved, and so are Xiao Zheng, Xiao Liu, and the others."

Hearing Han Xiaochuan's words, Zhao Mancang was stunned for a moment, and then asked:

"You just mentioned Xiao Zheng and the others. Did they all get the plague? Was it serious? Were they not sent to the city hospital for treatment?"

Han Xiaochuan immediately shook his head and said that Zheng Haichao and the others were all receiving isolated treatment at the farm and could not return to the city for treatment.

Moreover, the reason why he and Guan Lishan were guarding here was because this place needed to be isolated and outsiders were not allowed to approach.

"Okay, I understand. I'll go in right away. You guys guard the gate and don't let outsiders in."

Zhao Mancang nodded solemnly, then turned to look at Wei Huayong next to him and said:
"Old Wei, don't go in. Just go back to the car and wait for me. I don't know what's going on inside, and I'm not sure. If I need help later, you'll be busy then."

The latter also understood, nodded, and reminded Zhao Mancang to be careful.

After entering the farm, Zhao Mancang found that it was quite clean.

It seems that the doctors who came this time are quite knowledgeable and know how to maintain good hygiene.

Soon, Zhao Mancang saw the person, but the doctor was very dissatisfied with Zhao Mancang's sudden appearance, and even shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Who let you in? Huh? Don't you know how serious the situation here is? What are the security guards at the door doing? Didn't we agree not to let anyone in?"

The doctor was a stranger and Zhao Mancang didn't know him.

So Zhao Mancang could only reveal his identity first, but the doctor in front of him, Sui Zhixian, still said fiercely:
"Comrade Zhao, even if you founded this farm, do you know about the plague? Do you know how powerful this virus is? You don't know, and I don't know either, so the best way is to stay away from it."

Although the other party was kind-hearted, Zhao Mancang didn't want to waste time talking to him and interrupted him directly:

"Comrade, thank you for your kindness. I'm also well aware of the plague. You can tell from my attire that I'm not unprepared."

"And the most important thing now is to save people, not waste time here."

Sui Zhi was stunned for a moment, then looked at Zhao Mancang suspiciously and said:

"Are you sure you're here to save people and not cause trouble? I know many great doctors in the capital, but I've never seen you, let alone heard of you, not to mention you're in the breeding business."

Zhao Mancang was so helpless. With his reputation in the medical field, how could the doctor in front of him have never heard of his name?

But then he shook his head. The capital is so big, it seems normal that some people have never heard of his name.
