Chapter 283: Continue to do research
"It's okay, just live here with peace of mind. If you like research, then do it here. This will definitely allow you to give full play to your abilities." Yi Ke said without hesitation.
"Really, we can do research here?" Old Su became excited. He was itching to try solar panels, and now he was overjoyed to hear that he could continue his favorite research.
"Yike, are you serious? We can do research here? That would require a lot of equipment and instruments." Although Wu Feifei was excited, she still remained rational.
"It's okay. As long as you like them, we will buy those things for you. But it seems that it's impossible for just the two of you to do it, right?" Yi Ke touched his head and said awkwardly.
"You don't understand this. Research does not necessarily require a large number of people. More people are just there to help. We can concentrate on the most important part, so we can do it without anyone." Wu Feifei said with a smile.
"Yike, we appreciate your kindness, but forget about continuing the research." Now that Mr. Su has calmed down, he knows the difficulty of continuing the research. It is not a question of whether there are people or not, but that research requires materials, which means a lot of money, and some rare materials cannot be bought with money.
Wu Feifei also thought of this, and both of them lost interest.
"Hey, grandpa, aunt, what's wrong with you two? You were so ambitious just now, how come you have lost your fighting spirit in the blink of an eye? Are you afraid that you won't be able to research anything? That doesn't matter. We don't have to have any big results. We'll be happy as long as there's a little progress. You have lost confidence before you even start, that's not okay." Yi Ke thought the two of them had no confidence.
"Yike, to be honest, you are good enough to us, so you don't have to do those researches. We are not really obsessed with research like crazy, and we don't care about anything for the sake of research. You have already paid so much for us. You see, the three of us are eating and drinking for free here, so how can we let you spend more time and energy on our research? We all know that research is a money-consuming machine, and no matter how much money you have, it may not be enough. You may not understand this, so I will give you a simple example..."
What Wu Feifei meant was that research is a money-burning job, and even if you spend money, there may not be any results. Moreover, at the moment, even if there are results, you dare not publish them, as they may even put your life in danger.
Yike was silent for a moment, thinking that what her aunt Wu Feifei said made sense, but she was unwilling to leave two talents alone.
Besides, technology will be very advanced in the future society. If these two people stayed in the mountains and did not continue their research, by the time they were rehabilitated, they would have wasted more than ten years of their time. That would be such a pity.
"How about this, Grandpa, Aunt, can you help us research some agricultural machinery first? This will make it much easier for us to farm in the mountains."
"But we haven't studied this aspect?"
"It's okay. Brother Ziyi will tell you. He has some experience in this area. The three of you can work together to develop agricultural machinery. You can use tillers to plow the fields and harvesters to harvest. If you can develop unmanned aerial vehicles, you can let unmanned aerial vehicles help us spray pesticides on the crops in the sky. Haha, how convenient!" Yi Ke thought of how he used drones to spray pesticides on crops in his previous life, which saved time and effort. Drones must be difficult to manufacture, but harvesters are not a problem. Ziyi can definitely make it.
"What? What do you mean by drone?" Old Su grabbed the man who was imagining the use of drones in the future.
"Oh, you mean a drone? That's a small plane that doesn't require a pilot and flies in the sky." Yi Ke answered unconsciously.
"An airplane without a pilot. This requires very advanced technology to achieve this. Can we really develop it?" Old Su muttered to himself.
"Why can't I figure it out? I just--" Yi Ke suddenly stopped. What did he say? How could I say something that hasn’t been said in this era? Oh my God, what am I doing? How could I be so confused? Now I know what I am doing. How am I going to explain this?
"Yike, how do you know about drones? Which country developed this? How come we don't know about it? Was it only developed recently?" Wu Feifei asked puzzledly.
"No, no," Yi Ke waved his hands hurriedly, "I was just talking nonsense, really. You guys are all researchers and you don't know, how would I, an outsider, know."
"But what you just said seemed true. I thought it really existed. If this kind of drone is really developed, it will be a great help to the country in war." Wu Feifei said regretfully.
"Is that so? Then you and Grandpa will research it here? Once you have researched it, hand it over directly to someone you trust. This way, there will be no harm."
"You talk as if it has already been figured out. We have no idea at all, so how could we possibly figure it out?"
"That's okay. Research is something that needs to be done slowly."
"Yike, I suddenly think what you said is feasible. We don't have any research projects now, so we can really try what you said. But, Yike, do you have money?" Old Su suddenly leaned over to Yike with shining eyes.
"Well, we can make money, right? We can make money while doing research. Look, we produce so many products, and we can make money by selling them."
Yi Ke did not tell them whether he had money or not. However, even if he had money for their research temporarily, they would definitely need more and more money in the future, and by then they might not have enough money for their research, so Yi Ke just said something ambiguous.
"Yes, let's produce more things and sell them while conducting research." Old Su suddenly became very interested. The person who suddenly became depressed in front of him didn't seem to be him.
"Then you must first develop agricultural machinery to replace manpower, so that we can free up our hands to process these agricultural products. Only processed agricultural products can be sold in the mountains to gain value."
"Okay, let's first study the tilling machines and harvesting machines you mentioned." Old Su said with determination.
"Okay, then we'll build a laboratory for you. This way, you can do all your experiments in the laboratory in the future, okay?"
"Okay, okay, Yike, thank you so much! Meeting you is the greatest luck in my life." Old Su said excitedly.
Wu Feifei quickly lowered her head and blinked a few times to suppress the sourness. Finally, he raised his head and looked at Yi Ke with gratitude. Although he didn't say anything, the gratitude was clearly written on his face.
