When Tang Yue arrived at the satellite research base, the people there were working feverishly. Their car was stopped by the soldiers on duty quite a distance away. Commander Huang's military vehicle arrived quickly.

After seeing who was in the car, a look of shock flashed across Commander Huang's eyes, and he quickly let them pass.

Upon arriving nearby, as soon as Mr. Qi alighted from the car, Commander Huang immediately stepped forward, "Sir, what brings you here? Are you with Secretary Tian...?"

Without saying the rest, he watched as the little girl came down from the other side. Commander Huang swallowed his words abruptly. Then he burst into laughter, "Ah, Comrade Tang, we meet again."

After saluting Commander Huang, Tang Yue saw a research base that had already been built. Tang Yue went straight in; there was no one inside. Tang Yue arranged everything in the same way as a Russian satellite base, including the satellite that was still installed on the ground.

There are still several items that haven't been released.

"Commander Huang, how much longer will it take to complete the rest?"

Commander Huang checked the time. "At the latest, an hour." Tang Yue nodded. "Then let's wait."

Mr. Qi, Secretary Tian, ​​and Commander Huang entered the research base together. When they saw the well-packaged satellites laid out on the ground, their eyes turned red. Tang Yue followed behind.

"This is the one Russia is preparing to launch recently. I think China should be able to build a more complete satellite than this one."

Mr. Qi nodded solemnly, "It definitely will."

Commander Huang and Secretary Tian understood Tang Yue's meaning, and they agreed. China needs to grow, not simply copy others.

Then everyone's attention turned to the various sophisticated machines and supercomputers. They were excited; Russia really has a lot of good stuff! Haha, let's see if they'll still try to impose any technology blockade on China this time.

It was already 6 PM when Tang Yue left. After safely escorting Mr. Qi back to his office, Mr. Qi handed Tang Yue a sleeper ticket to the South Island. "Little girl, the country thanks you, and I'm very grateful to you too. There's no further room for advancement in rank or grade."

But we truly want to give you the best that China can offer. Is there anything you'd like to ask for?

Tang Yue: "I really like the courtyard houses in Kyoto. Give me six sets."

After saying that, she didn't take the ticket from Mr. Qi's hand. "Sir, I'm in a hurry, so I won't take the train. Please have someone refund the ticket; don't waste it. I'll be going now. Take care of yourself."

Before Mr. Qi could even react, Tang Yue had already left. She was extremely eager to go home. Once outside the courtyard, Tang Yue used her invisibility to fly away on her sword.

Secretary Tian entered Mr. Qi's office and said, "Sir, the little girl has left."

Mr. Qi sat in the chair. "This child, she has done so much for China, and all she wants are six courtyards in Kyoto. Don't you think that's too little?"

Secretary Tian hadn't expected Comrade Tang to ask for something so simple and unpretentious. "He probably doesn't have anywhere to stay whenever he comes over, and he wants a home of his own. Besides, he has four older brothers, so there should be another house for his parents."

Mr. Qi smiled; he understood perfectly well. "Oh, what a good child. Then go and pick out some nearby, not too far away, and not too small a yard. Once you find something suitable, make sure it's nice and well-maintained."

Even if the young comrade doesn't ask for anything, we can't just give her the runaround. She deserves the best from China.

"Yes! The whole nation should thank her! Comrade Xiao Tang's contributions are truly remarkable."

Mr. Qi nodded, his face beaming. "Most importantly, she's patriotic. Actually, she didn't have to bring these things out at all. By the way, have you started taking inventory? There absolutely can't be any labels on the supplies."

"Don't worry, sir, it's already being handled. The main problem is those machines; our people don't even know how to repair them, let alone upgrade them."

Secretary Tian is right, this problem is difficult to solve, but no matter how difficult it is, they have to solve it themselves.

"We still have to find a way. Right now, we not only have samples, but we don't even know how many production lines we have. Even if we have to disassemble one or two machines for learning purposes, we must make sure that their own machinery factory figures it out."

"Yes, oh right, Comrade Tang also brought back quite a few books. She didn't put them with the supplies, she put them at the guesthouse. She told me this just now when I saw her off."

She said, "Knowledge knows no borders. To catch up, or even surpass, one must not work in isolation—that's unacceptable!"

"Why!"

Tang Yue moved quickly; she couldn't wait to see her mother. In less than half an hour, Tang Yue was standing at the entrance of the South Island Corps.

The soldier on duty was new and didn't recognize Tang Yue.

"Little friend, who are you looking for? Please come over and register."

Tang Yue...

Tang Yue walked over, took out her officer's ID from her pocket, and handed it to the soldier. The soldier almost popped his eyes out when he saw it. They had heard about their 5-year-old company commander since their first day in the army, but they never expected it to be this little girl in front of them?

The soldier quickly saluted Tang Yue, "Greetings, Company Commander Tang!"

Tang Yue returned the greeting, "May I go in?"

"Great! Welcome back, Company Commander Tang!"

For a moment, Tang Yue felt a warmth in her heart.

It was just past dinner time, but with the Lunar New Year approaching, there were still quite a few people standing in the residential compound, even in the dead of winter.

When the older women saw Tang Yue return, they all greeted her, and Tang Yue responded as she walked home.

Lin Cuicui and Old Li had just finished eating when they heard a commotion outside the courtyard. "I wonder what's going on outside again."
