Traveling through 1980 to become a top student

Chapter 33

Lin Jinglan was apprehensive, anxiously waiting for Hong Ze's answer.

On the one hand, she hoped that Hong Ze would say that she didn't like her, so that she wouldn't feel guilty because she couldn't repay Hong Ze's feelings, but she also felt that if Hong Ze really said that I didn't like you because you were thinking too much, she would feel too much. Awkward.

Hong Ze looked sideways at Lin Jinglan, his delicate eyebrows furrowed. After a long silence, Hong Ze nodded, "Yes."

"Yes, I like you."

Lin Jinglan asked, "Then you are going to Beijing to go to university because of me?"

Hong Ze hummed lightly.

Lin Jinglan sighed, "Don't make fun of your future. You gave up a better university in order to go to Beijing, but have you ever thought that even if we both go to university in Beijing, I will not reciprocate your feelings? I I won't fall in love with you, but fall in love with someone else."

Lin Jinglan asked, "Didn't it be a waste of time for you to fetch water from the bamboo basket? You have delayed your future in vain."

Lin Jinglan continued to hypothesize, "What's more, you also went to Beijing to go to university, but after so many months, you found that you don't like me anymore. Wouldn't it be a waste of regret? It will be too late to regret it by then gone."

Hong Ze smiled when he heard the words, "You don't have to worry about this. Since I made this choice, I won't regret it. Even if you don't like me, or I don't like you at all, I won't regret this choice .”

"Because it's a choice I made myself."

"Taking a step back, even if I have made other choices now, instead of going to Beijing, I will apply for a university that is more suitable for my score. Wouldn't I regret it?"

"If I fail the college entrance examination and miss the college students I applied for, will I regret that I didn't apply for Beijing University of Technology? Then I will be admitted."

"Or I went to another city to go to school and saw you falling in love with someone else in Beijing, marrying someone else and having children, would I regret that I didn't go to Beijing with you at that time? Maybe it would have a different result."

Listening to Hong Ze's words, Lin Jinglan couldn't find the words to refute.

Hong Ze carefully looked at Lin Jinglan's expression, "Is it because you know that I chose Beijing because of you, which makes you feel pressured?"

Lin Jinglan nodded, she really thought so, if it wasn't for her, Hong Ze could have entered a better university.

She wanted to persuade Hong Ze to go to the school immediately and change his choice.

Hong Ze looked serious, "Don't think so, this is my own choice and has nothing to do with you."

"This is the result of my deliberation."

Hong Ze said slowly, "You can't be too greedy—"

"I know what I want most, so I can give up some things that are not so important to me."

Hong Ze's eyes were shining, and he didn't know if it was the street lights on the playground or not.Lin Jinglan suddenly lowered her head, not daring to look into Hong Ze's eyes anymore, her face and ears began to feel hot.

Lin Jinglan was glad that Hong Ze couldn't see the color on her face clearly in the darkness.

Lin Jinglan finally gave up trying to persuade Hong Ze to change his mind, since he said it was his deliberate choice.

Even if he was young and frivolous, the thoughtfulness he thought was not so reliable, maybe he would regret it after many years.

Lin Jinglan thought, that was also Hong Ze's own business, besides, who hasn't regretted the few choices he made when he was young and frivolous?
Everyone who says "I've thought it through" really just means that if you later regret the decision, you have no one to blame but yourself.

In fact, Lin Jinglan felt that what Hong Ze said was right, everyone must give up some less important things for what they want most.

And those who can't figure out what they want most, and put the cart before the horse, are the most confused and miserable.

Zhao Yumei came back with a tea mug, and sighed, "There is no hot water. The boiler master said that the weather is getting hot, and everyone is drinking more and more water. There is no time to boil so much water."

Lin Jinglan frowned, "It's so hot, I can't even drink my saliva." The college entrance examination is getting closer, and with the heat, it's easy to get angry, let alone lack of water.

Zhao Yumei complained sullenly, "It's been almost a week, when will the water shortage be a problem?"

Lin Jinglan was very puzzled, "Isn't there enough boiling water last summer? It wasn't hotter than it is now in September last year, so why didn't the water stop?"

Zhao Yumei pouted, "Who knows."

Lin Jinglan really couldn't figure it out, so she went to the boiler room to have a look. The boiler master saw Lin Jinglan coming in, and yelled at her, "No water, no water."

Lin Jinglan didn't turn around and leave, but took two steps forward, stretching her head to look at the boiler.The boiler didn't emit any heat, obviously it wasn't heating water at all.

Lin Jinglan asked in surprise, "Didn't it mean that the water can't be boiled? Why is the boiler still not heating water?"

Lin Jinglan thought for a while, "Isn't it because the water can't be boiled, but because the coal isn't enough?"

The boiler master didn't expect Lin Jinglan to be so perceptive, so he guessed the truth right away, so he had to confess, "It's true that there is not enough coal. Only half of the quota reported in the past two months has been approved. The boiler can't keep boiling water. It can be burned once, otherwise there will be no coal for cooking in the cafeteria.”

Lin Jinglan frowned when she heard this, "It's almost the college entrance examination, and there is not enough water."

The boiler master also sighed, "There is not enough coal, there is really no way..."

Lin Jinglan changed her mind, "Did you just say that the coal should be used for cooking in the cafeteria first, and the rest should be used to boil water in the boiler room?"

The boiler master nodded, "Of course, we must ensure that the teachers and students have food to eat."

Lin Jinglan turned her head and left. The boiler master looked at the back of Lin Jinglan leaving quickly, with a puzzled expression on his face.

Lin Jinglan walked straight into the cafeteria. It was not lunch time, only the staff were busy in the cafeteria.

Lin Jinglan asked, "Master, can you let me go into the back kitchen and have a look at your stove?"

The master in the cafeteria blasted Lin Jinglan out, "The back kitchen can come in at will, don't get in the way."

In the end, the master couldn't bear Lin Jinglan's various entreaties, and finally agreed to let Lin Jinglan go in and take a look.

Lin Jinglan took a quick look and then withdrew from the back kitchen.She could tell right away that the stove currently used in the back kitchen was the simplest and most common one—the one that consumed the most coal.

Lin Jinglan has already started to think in her heart, if the stove is improved, maybe the water can be boiled while cooking, and even a lot of coal can be saved.

As far as Lin Jinglan knows, the development of biomass energy utilization technology can be divided into four or five stages until her previous life, and the representative products of the first stage are energy-saving stoves and small biogas.

If the school cafeteria can be replaced with an energy-saving stove, a lot of coal can be saved, and the boiling water can be boiled while cooking, so there is no need for a boiler room at all.

Lin Jinglan sighed in her heart. In her previous life, the teachers in her major tried their best to put aside the relationship between their major and "burning coal", and desperately leaned on the tall.But in the current era, even the coal has not yet been burned. Lin Jinglan feels that there is still too much work to be done on the coal.

This kind of stove in the school really consumes too much coal for nothing.

Lin Jinglan hesitated again and again, but decided to design an energy-saving stove.Even if the school is not allowed to renovate the canteen, after she applies for a patent and publishes a thesis, if she can promote energy-saving stoves earlier, in a small town like Qingshan Town, it is estimated that [-] tons of coal can be saved every year.

At night, Lin Jinglan lay on the bed, closed her eyes and entered the system space.

She first wrote down the innovation points that need to be realized for energy-saving stoves, one is to rationally distribute the effective heat energy of the stove, and the other is to make full use of the waste heat...

After Lin Jinglan wrote the design plan of the energy-saving stove, she ran into the back kitchen of the cafeteria, measured the various sizes of the original stove and the space in the cafeteria, and began to design and calculate.

Thanks to her system, all kinds of data she needs, such as heat transfer coefficient, can be consulted directly from the literature.

After several days of hard work, Lin Jinglan finally calculated the various dimensions and was ready to draw the design drawings.

Lin Jinglan is actually not used to hand-drawing drawings, the progress of drawing is a bit slow, and she can't delay her college entrance examination review during the day, so it took almost half a month to complete the drawing.

At this time, the college entrance examination is only more than a month away.

Lin Jinglan hesitated and decided to continue.On the one hand, she is confident enough in her review that she doesn't care about spending two hours a day on it, on the other hand, she can't bear to give up all her previous efforts.

Lin Jinglan found the principal and tried to persuade him to transform the stove in the school.

The principal disagreed, "The college entrance examination is almost here, what are you messing around with?"

Lin Jinglan argued, "Why is it nonsense? The stove I designed can save a lot of coal. Now the coal is not enough, and the boiled water is not enough to drink. The students are either holding back their thirst or directly drinking the raw water from the well. .”

"My plan only needs to be modified on the basis of the original one. It doesn't need much material and it won't be too troublesome." Lin Jinglan didn't give up.

The principal insisted, "There is no room for negotiation on this matter. You go back and review carefully. Back then, you were so courageous and insisted on applying for Tsinghua University. Now you don't study hard. Do you want to repeat for another year?"

Lin Jinglan sighed. Her insistence on taking Tsinghua University made the principal very dissatisfied.

Lin Jinglan had no choice but to give up persuading the principal and decided to be patient, since the college entrance examination is not far away anyway.

But she was unwilling to let her previous hard work go to waste, so she sorted it out, wrote a paper and a patent application on the energy-saving stove she designed, and sent them to the post office together.

She found the address of the China Patent Office and sent the patent application. At this time, she had no idea that the China Patent Office had only been established for half a year.
