Chapter 533: Yan Chi wants to join the army?
Thinking of this, Lin Yuzhu's mind turned quickly, and he said calmly: "Our Construction Bureau has the most comprehensive national map. I remember that area was occupied by our country many years ago, right? Has it never been developed before?"
"……without."
Perhaps thinking of Lin Yuzhu's work, Gu Jianjun withdrew his suspicious look.
He explained: "It's too far from our southernmost city, and it's not very convenient to go there once. At present, we can only keep someone on duty at all times, so it's still a bit difficult to develop it."
Lin Yuzhu thought about the country's current technology. It is indeed not easy to reclaim land and build islands, so she nodded and said, "It's okay. Our country will become stronger and stronger in the future, and one day we will develop that place very well."
Gu Jianjun also laughed after hearing this, "You are right, one day... we will drive away those who covet our territory!"
At this time, Shuyao asked again: "Uncle Gu, you haven't told me yet, is it fun to live on such a small island?"
Gu Jianjun sighed and smiled bitterly, "It's not fun. At first, we built a wooden house, but it was very damp, not waterproof, and not strong. Later, it was changed to an iron house. Although it was waterproof and strong, it was very hot. Staying in it was like being in a steam oven. It was very unbearable."
"Ah? Can't we just use bricks to build it?"
Gu Jianjun shook his head. "No, the place is too small, it can't be built, and it's not strong."
"Okay," Shuyao sighed. "Uncle Gu must have worked so hard!"
Gu Jianjun smiled and said, "It's okay, we will change shifts."
But even though he said that, looking at his sunburned skin and the severity of his injury, everyone knew it must not have been easy.
For a moment, no one in the yard spoke.
No one noticed that Gu Jingmo was quietly clenching his fists. There was heartache in his eyes as he thought about how his father had spent the most time with him since he was a child, when he was hurt.
He secretly decided in his heart that since being a soldier was his father's dream, he could not persuade him to give up. He must become the best doctor in the future so that if his father was injured again, he could treat him personally.
No one knew that Gu Jingmo wanted to be a doctor because of this.
Gu Jianjun then told them many interesting stories about his military service, which made everyone very happy and their sad emotions disappeared.
…
Because Gu Jianjun was recuperating, the old couple of the Zhou family was afraid that he would be bored, so they asked Shuyao and Gu Jingmo to spend more time with him.
Shuyao agreed readily after hearing this, and brought Yanchi along. The three little guys pestered him every day to ask about interesting things about being a soldier.
After listening so much, even Yanchi, who was always honest and introverted, started talking a lot more.
Every time I came back, I would tell them the story again with great interest during dinner.
One time, she even said, "Uncle Gu knew I was learning to swim and praised me for being great. He said that all the navy members knew how to swim, so she told me to study hard and maybe I could become a navy member in the future!"
After hearing this, Lin Yuzhu looked at Zhao Yanshu in surprise and couldn't help asking, "Does Yanchi want to be a soldier in the future?"
Yan Chi hesitated for a moment, "I don't know, I haven't decided yet, I don't have anything I particularly like, and I don't know much about being a soldier, so I don't know if I like it or not, but I know I like swimming."
Lin Yuzhu nodded and smiled, "It's okay, don't worry. Since you don't know what you like, just look around and try more. You're still young anyway, so it won't be too late to decide when you grow up."
Yan Chi smiled and agreed after hearing this.
