Chapter 576: Never Forget Your Original Intention (7)

What can Qiu Manyan say? He said that it was originally to protect Shen Yanming's identity information?

But I still have to keep it a secret now, so I still can’t tell you.

When I saw Old Man Xu’s expression, I knew that I was probably in trouble.

But he couldn't admit it, so he could only say guiltily: "What's the matter? Is it necessary to be so excited?"

Dean Xu's fingers and lips were trembling, and tears were streaming down his face, shocking all the researchers in the laboratory.

Everyone rushed forward to support him, some used tissues to wipe his tears and nose, and some patted his back to help him calm down.

Qiu Man didn't expect that Dean Xu would be so sad. He is so old and he was afraid that he would have a stroke.

"President Xu, if you're unhappy, you can hit me or scold me, don't keep it in your heart!"

Dean Xu turned his head away and ignored him.

I feel depressed when I see him now. I think of the wasted time and the wrong research direction, and it hurts so much.

When he finally recovered, he looked at Qiu Man with great sorrow: "Mr. Qiu, do you know how much precious time we wasted because you said a few less words? Do you know how many permutations and combinations of those plants there are in the ancient recipes? How many experiments would it take for us to try them one by one?"

Qiu's cheeks flushed, and he took a deep breath before saying, "Dean Xu, I am a liberal arts graduate, and I can't figure out the permutations and combinations you mentioned. But you can't put this hat on me.

I omitted one sentence at the beginning, but can you guarantee that if I had said it, you would have thought that they were plants mentioned in ancient medical books?

Besides, I am here today just to propose a hypothesis. I don’t know whether it is true or not!

Isn't that what science is all about? It requires constant trial and error. It's possible that we will achieve great scientific research results in the end, or we may waste our lives and achieve nothing in the end.

Dean Xu, your reaction makes me regret telling you my guess.

I am a little worried. If it is finally confirmed that these plants have nothing to do with the medicinal materials mentioned in the ancient medical books, will you and your researchers blame me for coming here and talking nonsense today?"

Qiu Man's tone was calm, but it made Dean Xu feel extremely embarrassed. He was too excited just now and didn't think about these things.

What Qiu Man said makes sense. If he had really told him at the beginning, he might not have linked them together.

Dean Xu stood up and bowed, which frightened Qiu Man so much that he jumped away.

I thought to myself, President Xu is still as vigorous as ever.

Qiu Man's heart was pounding as he heard Dean Xu say, "Xiao Qiu, I'm so sorry for what I did just now. I was too extreme. I, I was also..."

Qiu Man quickly helped the man up and said, "I don't blame you. I know you are doing this for the alliance and the people. It's normal to say something you don't want to say when you're anxious. But our original intention has never changed, right?"

"Yes, yes, that's right. I'm worried too. Although pustular disease is not as destructive to the body as the HZ virus, it not only affects the appearance, but also the normal life of the residents.

Tell me, who would dare to walk around in broad daylight unless they have no other choice?

There is also that young man who goes on a blind date and gets turned off when he sees the other person’s face full of pustules.

If you are married, you want to be intimate with your wife or husband at night, but before they even touch each other's faces, the abscess bursts.

As for those units that are not essential to operation, all employees were given holidays to go home and stay at home.

But are those factories really out of work? Not necessarily!

We stopped working for a month because we were worried that the pus in the abscess would be contagious. This has seriously affected the normal operation of our Qinghua country!"

Qiu Man nodded as he listened. He also knew about the situation, but he was powerless to do anything.

Sometimes I feel that the end of the world is a test from God to mankind. But they are just a bunch of little ants, under the control of others, no matter how hard they struggle, they can't get out of the sky.

They are too small and too fragile. If they are given a little hardship or obstacle, they will lose a large number of brothers and sisters.

Even though there are no restrictions on fertility now, the number of newborns is far less than the number of deaths due to various reasons. This has led to a decreasing number of people on the planet.

With fewer people, there will be more resources.

However, frequent disasters and climate change have never given the survivors the opportunity to use these surplus resources.

Everyone is struggling on the line between life and death, only Qinghua Country is relatively stable.

On the way back to the headquarters, Qiu Man kept thinking about all these messy things.

It was not until he saw the figure of Chief Alliance Officer Li that his panicked heart calmed down a little.

"How is it? What's the situation?" asked Chief Alliance Officer Li.

Qiu Man told the truth, even mentioning how Dean Xu resented him for not explaining the relationship between seeds and medical books in a timely manner.

Chief Alliance Officer Li patted Qiu Man on the shoulder and consoled him with a smile: "Old Xu has a bad temper. As long as it is related to research, he will ignore it. Wasn't it because he didn't ask about the source of the seeds at the beginning, and it caused trouble for you."

Qiu Man shook his head. "I don't feel wronged. In comparison, Dean Xu has contributed much more to the alliance than I have. I just put up with his criticisms. Most importantly, after he vents his anger, he can focus on his research."

Chief Alliance Officer Li smiled helplessly, "In my heart, none of you is more important. Everyone in this building is contributing to the Qinghe Alliance in their own positions. It is their selfless dedication that has brought the temporary harmony and peace of Qinghua Country today."

But this tranquility will eventually be broken. Sometimes he feels like he can't hold on any longer.

Qiu Man felt that Chief Alliance Officer Li exuded an aloof and cold aura, and called out anxiously, "Chief Alliance Officer?"

"Oh, it's okay!" Chief Alliance Officer Li came back to his senses and thought, "I hope Qinghua Country will last forever!"

"Okay, you can go out now. Follow up with Old Xu, and report back as soon as you see any movement. Also, implement the inhibitors mentioned earlier as soon as possible. We still have to resume production, we can't just stop like this."

"Okay, I understand." Qiu Man nodded.

As he turned to leave, he remembered Shen Yanming's instructions. After a moment's hesitation, he said, "Xiao Shen said that when he was watching the news, he noticed that you looked tired, so he wanted me to tell you to 'pay attention to rest, because your health is the capital of revolution'."

Chief Alliance Officer Li was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "He is thoughtful, and so are you!"

Qiu Man said nothing and closed the door after leaving the office.

Chief Alliance Officer Li leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to rest.

Indeed, he couldn't overdraw his life like this any longer, otherwise, his body would collapse before the end of the world.

I thought of something and called a certain organization: "Is that thing ready?"
