Xu Jianguo picked up the phone and said, "Hello, I'm Xu Jianguo!"
"Jianguo, I heard from Tai Wei that you just came over? What's the matter?" Ma Guoliang's voice came from the phone.
"Well, it's nothing serious. I was thinking of coming back to tell you about it!" Xu Jianguo said.
"Come on, don't I know you? You are a man who doesn't come to visit for no reason. Hurry up and tell me!" Ma Guoliang scolded with a smile.
"Well, let me tell you, there are two main reasons why I came to you. The first is to report to you that the manufacturing of the new tactical helmets and low-light night vision goggles has been completed. So far, all the work of this new equipment research and development project has been completed, and only the subsequent testing work remains." Xu Jianguo said.
"Okay, Deputy Commander Dong and I were just discussing the equipment testing. I still can't contact the old leader, so the testing will probably have to wait!" Ma Guoliang said.
"I understand, but it has to be done as soon as possible. The old man told me before that things are not peaceful in the west, and I am worried that the situation will change." Xu Jianguo said.
"I know. I'll call my old friends later and ask if anyone knows the whereabouts of the old leader!" said Ma Guoliang.
"Okay!" Xu Jianguo nodded.
"Aren't there two things? What is the second thing?" Ma Guoliang continued to ask.
"The second thing is a personal matter. My wife's due date is in a month, but I'm usually at the research institute and I'm a little worried about the situation at home, so I want to apply for a telephone line at home so that I can know in time if anything happens." Xu Jianguo said a little embarrassedly.
"Do you need to tell me such a small matter? Why don't you just go to the communications company directly?" Ma Guoliang said unhappily.
"That won't work. You know that my rank of lieutenant colonel is just a nominal position. My officer certificate only states that I'm a scientific researcher. Logically, I'm not qualified to apply to pull telephone lines," Xu Jianguo said.
After hearing what Xu Jianguo said, Ma Guoliang rolled his eyes on the other end of the phone and said, "Okay, okay, okay, this has made you feel wronged. I'll call the communications company now and have it installed for you this afternoon, okay?"
"Hehe, okay, thank you, Commander!" Xu Jianguo said with a silly smile, an expression of success on his face.
"Is there anything else? Also, what are you going to do next?" Ma Guoliang continued to ask.
"I haven't decided on the next specific project yet, but the general direction remains unchanged. We can try to develop equipment that can improve individual soldier combat capabilities! By the way, I've been too busy lately, and I wanted to ask, have my sister-in-law and sister gone to the hospital? How are they?" Xu Jianguo said.
"Hahaha, since you have already taken action, then what's the problem? Just wait for the full moon drink!" Ma Guoliang said with a big laugh.
"Haha, okay!" Xu Jianguo also said with a smile.
"I have no objection to the general direction you just mentioned. You know more about professional things than I do! However, you have been free recently. Why don't you write down the materials about modern warfare that I asked you to organize before? I'm also hoping to recharge those old stubborn people in our base!" Ma Guoliang said.
"Okay, I got it. I'll write it when I have time!" Xu Jianguo agreed.
"Okay, let's do this for now. If you don't have other work, I'll give you three days off so that your subordinates can have a good rest. Besides, school is about to start, so you have to make arrangements for your three girls!" Ma Guoliang said.
"That's great, thank you, Commander!" Xu Jianguo said with a smile.
After hanging up the phone, Xu Jianguo raised his wrist to check the time and found that it was not yet two o'clock in the afternoon, so he shouted outside: "Everyone come in!"
After hearing Xu Jianguo's voice, Li Delong and others walked in from the outer room.
"Mr. Xu, what's the matter? Is there a new project?" Liu Yong asked.
"Not so fast. The commander just called and praised our recent work. He specially approved three days of vacation for us. Including this afternoon, it will be three and a half days. Those who don't have anything to do should go back and rest early!" Xu Jianguo said.
When they heard that they could take a break, they immediately showed expressions of surprise on their faces and grinned.
"Okay, stop laughing silly and let's go!" Xu Jianguo said with a smile.
"Yes!" everyone agreed.
"Calculate the days carefully and don't take a break too long!" Xu Jianguo reminded.
"Don't worry, Mr. Xu, we will definitely be back on time!" several people said, and then left the small workshop happily.
After everyone left, Xu Jianguo picked up his backpack, put out the stove, turned off the power, and finally put the assembled low-light night vision device into the space.
After checking that he had not left anything behind, Xu Jianguo left the small workshop, locked the door, and walked out of the research institute.
At this time, the people from the General Staff and the Weapon Research Institute had already left the 523 Institute and were secretly taken away from the Binhai Base by people from the Secret Affairs Office and the National Security Bureau. No one knew where they went, and no one knew what fate would await those who made mistakes.
But what is certain is that anyone involved in this matter will not have a good ending.
The temperature difference between day and night in Binhai in February is quite large. Although it is still very cold at night, it is still very warm when there is sunshine during the day.
Xu Jianguo did not enter the space, but smelled the salty sea breeze blowing in the air, and slowly walked towards home, feeling comfortable and cozy.
