When Mr. Qi heard Tang Yue say, "The lost satellite from Russia is with me," his previously calm and composed face instantly turned into one of extreme shock. His eyes widened, and he involuntarily leaned forward, staring intently at Tang Yue, as if trying to confirm whether he had misheard.
"Comrade Xiao Tang, are you... telling the truth? The Russian satellite is with you?" Mr. Qi's voice trembled slightly. He never imagined that the little girl in front of him would actually bring back such an important satellite.
Tang Yue nodded seriously and said, "Mr. Qi, it's absolutely true. I came to see you today because I want to hand over the satellite and do my part for the country."
Tang Yue seemed to have heard someone say that China has never launched a satellite so far.
Mr. Qi then came to his senses. He stood up and paced back and forth in his office, his brow furrowed and his expression grave. The importance of satellites to China was self-evident. Now that this satellite had suddenly appeared, and from a powerful country like the Soviet Union, it had to be handled with utmost care, and the most suitable placement and utilization plan had to be found.
“This…this is extremely important!” Mr. Qi muttered to himself as he paced back and forth. “We must act immediately, without the slightest delay.” With that, he quickly walked to his desk, picked up the phone, and dialed a series of numbers.
"If there's anything important, we must hold a meeting immediately and make sure everyone gets here as quickly as possible!" Mr. Qi said this to someone, his tone very firm.
After hanging up the phone, Mr. Qi turned to look at Tang Yue, his eyes full of satisfaction: "Comrade Tang, you have done a great job this time! However, the placement and subsequent use of this satellite require careful planning."
Tang Yue nodded understandingly and said, "Mr. Qi, I understand, and I will cooperate fully."
Tang Yue was a little puzzled. "Mr. Qi, aren't you going to confirm with me? What if what I said is false?"
Mr. Qi's mind nearly went blank while he was working, but then he snapped out of it and burst into laughter. "Comrade Tang, I believe you. Besides, according to our reliable intelligence, the Russian satellite has indeed disappeared. I've also heard that the satellite research base has been razed to the ground. This?"
Tang Yue shrugged. "I didn't do it. It was one of their generals who thought the thieves might have used something to conceal themselves so they couldn't see them."
So they planted a ring of bombs around the base, which were detonated immediately when the satellite went missing. Many of their own men must have died.
Even now, Tang Yue still thinks General Igorevich was quite stupid. Mr. Qi asked worriedly, "Are you alright? Are you injured?" The Russian bombs were quite powerful. Mr. Qi looked Tang Yue up and down.
"I'm fine, I'm doing great. Oh, by the way, seven of the people I brought back this time were from the satellite base."
Mr. Qi smiled; he understood Tang Yue's meaning. Having a familiar expert was certainly the best option. At this point, Mr. Qi remembered something...
"Comrade Tang, in principle, China should award you honors and merits for such an important matter. However, given your current situation, China would prefer to protect you properly."
"Leaving aside everything else, just take the supercomputer and warship projects as examples; your achievements have already earned you the rank of general." Mr. Qi smiled as he said this. "Now, we really can't think of anything else we should give you."
Tang Yue raised an eyebrow. So her secret military achievements had already reached the rank of general? Haha, then she's more impressive than those division commanders.
Seeing that the little girl was clearly very happy, Mr. Qi chuckled. After all, she was still a child; her happiness was written all over her face. But that made it all the more genuine.
Tang Yue thought this was pretty good. That old man, Commander Kang, was so old before he became a division commander. How old was she? Haha, she's already a general. She thought it was pretty good.
“Mr. Qi, I don’t want anything. Oh, by the way, do you know two old men, one surnamed Ke and the other surnamed He? They used to be from the military region, but now they’ve been sent down to farms in Northeast China.”
Mr. Qi had heard about this. "How do you know? Have you met them?"
Tang Yue nodded, "After what happened to Nie Youyu last time, his brother-in-law Lai Jiaxing and his family were also sent to the countryside. Lai Xiang and I are good friends, so I went to see her on my way there and ran into her."
She wrinkled her nose as she spoke, "Those two old people didn't have an easy time. If I hadn't gone there that day, they would have frozen to death that very night. Old Ke's leg was broken, and Old He couldn't move his back. The two of them sat in the drafty cowshed, slowly waiting to die."
Mr. Qi looked displeased, but Tang Yue didn't care what he was thinking. This movement had killed so many good people, and she didn't want the things she had worked so hard to bring back to end up benefiting a bunch of ungrateful wretches.
Mr. Qi sighed, "Alas, the people below have misunderstood what they meant by those above, and now..."
Tang Yue didn't reply. She heard a sound coming from the main gate outside, so she stood up. "Mr. Qi, why don't you two discuss this first? The Russian satellite base is built in a very open area. There are no obstructions around it, so any emergencies can be detected in time."
After saying that, he left. Mr. Qi found it somewhat amusing. Well, these people, you never know what they might be thinking; it's best not to let the little girl show her face.
After leaving Mr. Qi's place, Tang Yue strolled around the streets of Kyoto. Although Kyoto wasn't as well-developed as Japan or Russia, Tang Yue quite liked its style.
Yes, she knew what she wanted. She needed Mr. Qi to give her a few courtyards. Five, perhaps. And they couldn't be too far apart. She would live with her parents, and her brothers and Xiao Xixi would also need houses when they got married.
