After leaving the headquarters, Xu Jianguo drove to the foot of the mountain where the 523 Institute was located. After parking the car, he walked towards the entrance halfway up the mountain.
When the guard standing guard at the door saw that the person coming was Xu Jianguo, he immediately stood at attention and saluted.
After Xu Jianguo returned the gift, he walked in. As soon as he entered the cave, he saw Pei Zhiwei, the director of the institute.
When the Binhai base was replaced, the former director and deputy director of the institute both submitted retirement applications to Ma Guoliang on the grounds of health, so they did not follow the troops to the Northeast.
Pei Zhiwei was forced to take on the role and was directly appointed by Ma Guoliang as acting director. The position of deputy director was no longer in place, and Xu Jianguo also served as the chief engineer and part-time director of the institute.
"Old Pei, what are you busy with?" Xu Jianguo walked over and asked with a smile.
"Hey, you're back?" Pei Zhiwei asked.
"What are you busy with?"
"Hey, isn't the latest batch of equipment going to be shipped out this afternoon? We're currently arranging it!"
"So soon? I remember it wasn't long ago that the last batch was shipped away?"
"Who knows? Anyway, we've received a letter from the General Staff. The commander has given the order, so we'll just carry it out."
"That's right, is there anything going on at the station?"
"Nothing's wrong, everything's normal. So, what are you going to do next?"
"I haven't thought about it yet, I need to think about it!"
"That's right. Alright, go figure it out quickly. I still have to go check the warehouse."
"Okay, hurry up and get busy. I'm going back to the studio."
After saying goodbye to Pei Zhiwei, Xu Jianguo went around the workshops and chatted with Li Delong and others for a few minutes before returning to his studio.
After lighting the stove and boiling water, Xu Jianguo made himself a pot of tea. Then he sat in a chair with the teacup and began to think.
"What should we do next?" Xu Jianguo muttered to himself.
Up to now, Longxia Country’s individual equipment can basically meet the needs of soldiers, but due to economic factors, it is impossible to equip on a large scale.
So according to his inner thoughts, he planned to temporarily suspend the progress of research and development, but judging from Ma Guoliang's expression, he probably still hoped that he would continue with the research.
Xu Jianguo had a headache, and suddenly, as if he thought of something, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Yes, since the country does not have the money to mass-produce new equipment, can I improve the combat effectiveness of the troops by modifying old equipment?" Xu Jianguo thought in his mind. The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed. Finally, he slapped the table and made up his mind.
After determining the direction, Xu Jianguo took out paper and pen and began to write and draw.
He first listed the light weapons and equipment that he thought were currently used by the soldiers of Longxia Country, then picked out the equipment that could be modified, and finally wrote down the modification plans that he thought were reasonable.
Li Delong brought him lunch again today. No one in the institute could do anything about this workaholic chief engineer who often forgot to eat because of work.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Jianguo put down the pen in his hand, picked up the teacup on the table and was about to drink some water. He then realized that the water in the cup had already been drunk by him, and he couldn't help shaking his head.
After standing up and stretching, and pouring himself another cup of tea, Xu Jianguo noticed the lunch box on the table and thought to himself that he had forgotten to eat lunch again.
I took a sip of water, took the lunch box, and found that it was still warm, so I opened the lid and started eating.
After lunch, Xu Jianguo drank the tea in the cup, put the paper and pen on the table into his bag, and then left the studio with his shoulder bag.
After leaving the research institute, Xu Jianguo drove towards home.
"Woof woof, meow!" As soon as I pushed open the gate, Xiaohei and Erhei came to greet me.
Xu Jianguo smiled and touched their heads, then opened the door of the main room and walked in.
"Wife!" Xu Jianguo shouted, but there was no response from the house.
He was a little puzzled, wondering where Wen Sitian had gone, so he turned to look at Xiao Hei and asked, "Where's my wife?"
Xiao Hei dug his head and looked at his master. He thought for a long time before coming to Xu Jianguo, holding his trouser leg in his mouth, and walked towards the entrance of the basement.
Seeing this, Xu Jianguo immediately understood that Wen Sitian had gone to the toilet.
Sure enough, after waiting for a while, Wen Sitian came out of the basement holding Wenwen.
"Oh, you're back. Why did you get off work so early today?" Wen Sitian asked with surprise.
"It's nothing, I just came back early. Did you have any trouble last night?" Xu Jianguo said with a smile.
"It's okay, Xiao Hei is safe at home."
After hearing what his wife said, he looked unhappy and walked over to hold his big son in his arms.
After living together for so long, how could Wen Sitian not understand her man? She rolled her eyes at him and said, "You're a grown man, yet you're still competing for favor with Xiao Hei."
"I..." Xu Jianguo suddenly felt like he had received 10,000 critical hits, but he didn't know who to complain to, so he had to use his newly grown stubble to tidy up the baby in his arms, causing the little guy to giggle and keep using his chubby little hands to resist his unreliable father.
Du Yu was still the one who made dinner today. The three girls were very happy to see their brother come back, and they chattered non-stop while eating.
As time approaches late September, the temperature difference between day and night in the Greater Khingan Range area becomes increasingly larger. The temperature is often above 10 degrees Celsius during the day, but drops below zero at night.
So after the sun went down, Xu Jianguo went to the yard to light the boiler. As the hot water flowed through the heating pipes, the house became warmer.
When he returned to the house, the family started their nightly entertainment activities again. In addition to these regular activities, Xu Jianguo also took out a hula hoop and a skipping rope from the space at Wen Sitian's strong request.
The reason was that during the period when she was weaning Wenwen, her weight did not decrease but increased, and she felt like she could no longer control it. This was definitely a nightmare for a woman who loved beauty.
So she asked Xu Jianguo to exercise with her in order to lose weight, which made Xu Jianguo look helpless, but he dared not disobey.
Looking at Wen Sitian swinging the hula hoop wildly beside him, Xu Jianguo had no choice but to pick up the jump rope and start playing. However, before he had jumped a few times, the voice of the system suddenly rang in his mind.
