On the other end of the phone, Yan Shutang paused slightly and said, "Sure, I just finished a meeting and I'm free. Where are you now? I'll come find you."
If it were someone else, Yan Shutang would definitely not be so easy to deal with, but when it came to matters concerning Tang Zhaosong, Yan Shutang did not dare to be careless at all.
"I'm at the Nanjiao Manor. Uncle Yan, if you come over now, I'll be waiting in the manor."
"Okay, I'll be there right now."
After saying that, the two hung up the phone.
"Miss, are you going to wait for someone here?"
As a super-dimensional robot, Meilin's five senses are much stronger than humans. She heard every word of the conversation between Yun Zijin and Yan Shutang.
"Well, let's find a place to rest for a while. Uncle Yan is very efficient."
"Everything in the main building has been arranged. You can go there anytime."
Meilin was the person who knew Nanjiao Manor best. As soon as Yun Zijin said he wanted to wait for someone, her program immediately came up with a solution.
Yun Zijin trusted Meilin 100%, so when he heard her say that, he accepted it without much hesitation.
"Then let's go. I don't know the way very well. Meilin, take me there."
Even if Yun Zijin didn't say it, Meilin would still stay by Yun Zijin's side.
Yan Shutang said he would come right away. Yun Zijin originally thought that Nanjiao Manor was located in such a remote place that it would take at least 40 minutes to wait.
Unexpectedly, after only waiting for half an hour, Yan Shutang arrived, accompanied by a person who looked like his assistant.
"Girl Zijin, I've been waiting for a long time. It's unfortunate that the meeting place I went to today is quite far from Nanjiao Manor, so I was delayed for a while.
You just called me and said you wanted to talk to me about something. Just tell me whatever it is.
As long as I can do it, I will try my best to meet your requirements."
Yun Zijin has already paid all the expenses for building Tang Zhaosong's laboratory. Yan Shutang still hopes that Yun Zijin can squeeze out a little more money from between his fingers and contribute some research funds to other research projects.
Those researchers somehow heard that Tang Zhaosong's current laboratory was provided free of charge by Yun Zijin, and they all came to Yan Shutang.
Either they wanted him to provide research funding, or they wanted him to act as a matchmaker with Yun Zijin.
After all, although the country also allocates research funds, there are so many ongoing projects, and if each project gets a little bit, there will only be a tiny amount left in their hands.
At this time, a generous "sucker" appeared, and they certainly would not miss the opportunity to obtain research funds.
When he received Yun Zijin's call today, he hurried as fast as he could, and as long as it was safe to drive, he asked the driver to drive at full speed at the speed limit.
Yun Zijin immediately felt that Yan Shutang's attitude today was not right.
Before, they would argue with each other whenever they met. When they were face to face, there was not a single harmonious second between the two of them.
Today, Yan Shutang greeted Yun Zijin with a smile right from the start.
When something is out of the ordinary, there must be something fishy going on. Tell Yun Zijin directly that there must be something fishy going on with Yan Shutang's behavior.
"No, you're not the same as usual today.
"If you show me kindness without any reason, you are either a traitor or a thief. Tell me, what do you want to ask of me?"
Yan Shutang was speechless by Yun Zijin. How could this girl be so sensitive?
"Look at what you're saying. Was my attitude towards you bad before? I was like this before, too. Maybe we haven't seen each other for too long, so you have a stereotype about me."
Although Yan Shutang's thoughts were in turmoil, he remained expressionless.
At this time, whoever can't hold on first will lose. It is the time to test each other's mentality.
"Heh, what kind of attitude did you have when you spoke to me before? Don't you know it yourself?"
Yun Zijin was amused by Yan Shutang. Some people really don't have a clear understanding of how they are positioned in the eyes of others.
"This... that must be your mistake. I have always been very friendly towards you.
Oops, we've strayed off topic. What do you want to talk to me about today? Let's get down to business first and talk about other things later."
The top priority now is the affairs of Tang Zhaosong’s laboratory.
“When Meilin and I were touring the manor today, we ran into researchers from the laboratory in many places.
I remember I told you before that when the manor is completed, I will definitely hold a banquet and a grand housewarming ceremony.
There will be people coming and going at that time. If someone finds a researcher walking around in the manor and attracts the attention of some people with ulterior motives, you should know the consequences without me telling you.
Even if I don't hold a banquet, the entire manor is so big that I will definitely have to hire servants after it is completed to be responsible for the sanitation work and green maintenance work in various parts of the manor, as well as kitchen chefs, housekeepers, etc.
These people must be there. Of course, you can ask them to help me find them, but it is better to be safe than sorry. Since you regard Professor Tang’s experiment as so important, you should do the relevant ideological work for these researchers.
Even if we take a step back, Nanjiao Manor is my private territory, and they have no right to enter and leave at will without my permission.
Based on this, I hope that all relevant personnel in the laboratory will not appear in my manor without my consent.
I remember that you later arranged a piece of land and started building residences for the researchers together with the laboratory project. I was fully responsible for the cost of this part. The construction team was the same, and the greening and layout inside were also not bad.
If you want to relax, chat or take a walk, you can do it there. There is no need to go all the way to my manor.
So, I hope you can make it clear to them and tell them not to come to the manor unless it’s necessary.
We have a cooperative relationship, and both parties are equal. I don't think they can enter the manor and walk around freely without my consent.
Strictly speaking, they are suspected of trespassing.
Minister Yan, what do you think?
After Yun Zijin's words, Yan Shutang was silent for a long time before he finally spoke: "I know everything you said. It is true that the researchers did not do a good job in this regard. I called them together to discuss the relevant issues.
However, these researchers spend most of their lives in the laboratory, so they may not have much awareness of the ways of the world.
But as long as someone brings it up and they know that it is wrong to do so, such a thing will definitely not happen again.
For the inconvenience they have caused you, I would like to apologize to you on their behalf. If you have any difficulties in the future, please feel free to come to me. I will consider it as my apology to you on their behalf."
Yan Shutang didn't expect that this matter would make Yun Zijin so disgusted, but now that Yun Zijin brought it up, they would just correct it.
