Professor Wu immediately became interested, so he waved to the assistant beside the god. The young man with glasses quickly walked over and put his ear close to Professor Wu.
"Take this product to our materials testing center for testing, and then send me the test results!"
The bespectacled man nodded immediately, and was about to leave when he seemed to remember something. So he asked again in a low voice, "Professor Wu, then you..."
"I'll stay here for dinner!"
The other party immediately nodded and left the tent with the silkworm cocoon. Lu Yuan felt somewhat smug, having finally cracked this tough nut.
Sure enough, this old man Wu was indeed a very stubborn old man, and also very proud.
"Since Professor Wu is planning to have dinner, let's begin! The food and drinks are a bit limited, but it's still our highest standard!"
Professor Wu didn't seem to care. He sat down beside her, straightened his clothes, picked up a pair of chopsticks from the table, and gently picked up a piece of meat from the grill, then looked at it in front of him.
"That's impressive, they can even get their hands on beef!"
After chewing it for a while, an incredulous light suddenly appeared in his eyes: "What kind of beef is this? Why is it so tender? It's just like beef that was just slaughtered!"
"Haha, Professor Wu, are you surprised? This beef actually comes from our camp. There are quite a few cattle in the camp right now!"
Professor Wu's gaze swept over Lu Yuan again, but this time he put away the contempt in his eyes and replaced it with a solemn expression.
Although Professor Wu, being in a high position, naturally possessed an aura that kept strangers at bay, he found it somewhat difficult to accept the successive blows Lu Yuan had dealt him this time.
He picked up the wine glass, put it in his mouth, and savored it gently. Instantly, the aroma of the wine filled the air, and the mellow taste lingered in his throat, making him feel as if he had returned to the world before the apocalypse. He stared quietly at the wine glass in his hand, and then looked at Lu Yuan.
"This...this is Wuliangye?"
Lu Yuan nodded: "That's right, these are the Wuliangye I left behind. There aren't many left now. If Professor Wu likes them, you can take a few bottles with you!"
Professor Wu actually really enjoys drinking. He doesn't have many hobbies, except for work and research, he just drinks a little. But he doesn't drink too much. However, after the apocalypse, he has rarely been able to drink alcohol anymore.
After all, grain can be used to make food and fill one's stomach. If it is used to make wine, it would be a complete waste. Many wineries have gone out of business as a result, and the wine that is left on the market has been almost completely consumed.
The remaining wines are mostly in the hands of collectors and wineries. To buy these wines, you would definitely need a huge amount of money. However, the other party glanced at Lu Yuan and felt that he did not seem to be one of the wealthy people he knew.
Professor Wu shook his head: "I appreciate your kindness, but a couple of sips will suffice!"
Lu Yuan didn't say anything. Instead, he had Xiao Shan slowly place the wooden box containing the wine next to the other person. Professor Wu glanced at the logo on the wooden box out of the corner of his eye. He was somewhat excited, but he didn't show any expression on his face. However, he didn't refuse either.
Seeing the other man's expression, Lu Yuan felt somewhat comforted. This old man Wu did have some hobbies, but more importantly, he only sat with people who were capable of cooperating with him. Otherwise, if Lu Yuan simply invited him to a meal for free, the other man wouldn't even sit down.
The two sat at the small dining table, eating in silence. Lu Yuan knew that if he tried to say anything to the old man at this point, the old man wouldn't listen. Anyway, he had nothing to say to the old man, so he could only wait for the test report to come out before they could talk.
After waiting for about half an hour, the bespectacled man rushed in with a look of surprise on his face, panting heavily as he placed a report in front of the old man.
"Professor Wu, look, this is the test report that was just taken!"
Professor Wu nodded slightly, took the report and glanced at the data. But as he scanned further down the report, his expression grew increasingly serious. When he saw the last line of statistics, he could hardly believe his eyes.
Professor Wu took off his glasses, rubbed them gently, put them back on, and glanced at the report. The numbers were still the same as before. He turned to look at his assistant beside him.
Can you guarantee the authenticity of this data?
The bespectacled man nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice: "Of course, I went through all these test reports myself, one by one, and there will absolutely be no discrepancies!"
Professor Wu pointed to the data on toughness and asked, "The toughness here exceeds that of spider silk. Are you sure? And its hardness advantage is so high. This doesn't seem to match what our research institute is talking about at all. You should know that the higher the hardness of a material, the lower its toughness, and vice versa. This doesn't make any sense. Look at this line, the Mohs hardness of the material exceeds that of diamond! How is this possible!"
The assistant scratched his head but honestly said, "But...but the test results just now really show this!"
Professor Wu's face immediately turned serious. He looked up at Lu Yuan, only to find that the other was still drinking and eating, seemingly quite confident about the research report.
"I'm going to get a second check-up. Why don't you come with me?"
