Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 2504 Who came up with this?

In the house, by the fire.

Faced with Yang Xiaotao's enthusiasm, Teacher Shu Xingbei was a little nervous.

But Yang Xiaotao felt that he had really found a treasure this time.

"Teacher Shu, what do you want to do, or what do you plan to do?"

Yang Xiaotao tried hard to stay calm and speak normally.

But people who are familiar with Yang Xiaotao know that at this moment Yang Xiaotao is already moved.

"This~~"

Shu Xingbei held the cigarette in his hand, looked at Mr. Ye again, and finally said uncertainly, "Well, Chief Yang, I just have this idea, and I haven't made any specific arrangements yet."

"It's okay, tell me what you think now."

"correct."

Yang Xiaotao turned to look at Ran Qiuye, "Wife, prepare a few more meals tonight."

Ran Qiuye immediately understood, "Okay, there is still a pork chop at home, we can make pork chop soup tonight."

"it is good!"

Yang Xiaotao responded and then stood up, "Master, Teacher Shu, let's go inside and talk."

Mr. Ye and the other man nodded, and then followed Yang Xiaotao to the study.

Outside the house, the old Taoist shook his head and placed the chess pieces, preparing to start another game.

Old Jin looked at the closed door of the study with curiosity and helplessness.

"Old Taoist, what on earth is that thing you're talking about?"

The old Taoist put his black chess pieces in place, glanced at Comrade Lao Jin, and then said leisurely, "I don't know what it is, but it must be something we haven't seen before."

Upon hearing this, Comrade Lao Jin smacked his lips twice. What he said really makes sense.

Several people came to the study and sat down. Yang Xiaotao found paper and pen and wrote down Shu Xingbei's ideas.

"Teacher Shu, I think your idea is very practical."

Yang Xiaotao was talking on the side, summarizing Teacher Shu's ideas. With the help of Mr. Ye, the ideas on the paper became clearer and clearer.

Among the three, Mr. Ye and Mr. Shu Xingbei are both masters of physics, while Yang Xiaotao has learned a lot of random things with the help of the golden finger, and more importantly, he has insights from later generations.

When the three of them got together, they understood the relevant theories almost immediately. As for practical production, that was the follow-up work.

However, with theoretical guidance, I believe that with the scientific research level of the nine departments, it is only a matter of time before it is accomplished.

The idea of 'program-controlled electronic switch' was soon created on the table in the study.

"Teacher Shu, this is the most important thing now, to make the signal processor."

"At the same time, this is also an important part of satellite phones. I think these two projects can be merged together."

Yang Xiaotao circled the important part on the paper. Mr. Ye and Teacher Shu Xingbei nodded with joy. After such an analysis, they felt that everything in front of them suddenly became clear.

"However, we have not done any research in this area yet, and I don't know if there is any research in this area in China."

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, the two of them shook their heads almost at the same time.

Like Yang Xiaotao, they were completely clueless about the domestic and international situation.

"Master, why don't you ask Uncle Chen?"

"The Chinese Academy of Sciences might do some research on this."

Yang Xiaotao blinked, and Mr. Ye gave a reassuring answer, "Okay, no problem."

Then he smiled and asked, "What would you do if the other party has it?"

Yang Xiaotao took out a cigarette from the table and handed it to the two of them, then said without hesitation, "Of course we will cooperate."

"However, it would be best if the researchers could come to our Nine Departments."

After the first sentence, the two of them looked at Yang Xiaotao with some admiration.

However, after saying the last sentence, both of them showed an expression of "as expected".

This guy has done a lot of poaching.

Regardless of what the two thought, Yang Xiaotao continued, pointing to the word "storage system" with a pencil, "This "storage system" is also an important part. You can ask Lao Yan for help. They already have some ideas about the computer storage system!"

Shu Xingbei immediately responded, "I know that. Dean Yan and his team are developing very quickly."

Yang Xiaotao laughed, then he felt distressed again when he thought of the investment in computer research.

Last time, I got 120 million from Camel, and invested 10 million directly in the research of this computer.

If there were no results yet, Mr. Li and Mr. Liu would be crying.

Of course, the 10 million is just the beginning. Most of it is used for the production and expansion of high-purity silicon alone. As for the costs of personnel and machinery, they are not included.

"We can ask Wang Kun and his team for help with this algorithm. They have already found a way..."

"There is also this receiver, Liu Xiangdong has also done research on it."

"and this."

Yang Xiaotao spoke enthusiastically, with arrangements for each one, looking like he had everything under control.

Seeing Yang Xiaotao like this, Mr. Ye, who was standing by, felt very emotional.

Thinking back to when I first came here, not only was I all alone and helpless, but the road ahead was even more bleak.

Not to mention one's own inner ambitions.

But now?

The Ninth Department's research institute grew little by little right under his nose.

He believed that with the solid foundation laid by the Nine Departments now, it would not be long before they could enter an era of rapid growth.

Only then will the Ninth Department truly take off.

It is the real locomotive.

Shu Xingbei listened to Yang Xiaotao's analysis of the situation, then stared blankly at the seven words "Programmable Electronic Switch" on the paper.

He didn't expect that he just had an idea and wanted to come over to tell it so that he could study it in private.

Of course, it would be best if Yang Xiaotao could support us.

Unexpectedly, after coming here, I not only gained the support of Yang Xiaotao, but also further improved the ideas in my mind.

Just looking at the design drawings and operating principles on the table, he always had a feeling, who on earth came up with this?
Did you come up with it yourself?

But why do I feel like this was something Yang Xiaotao had planned a long time ago?

"Teacher Shu?"

Yang Xiaotao asked gently, and Shu Xingbei immediately reacted, then nodded and said, "No problem, I will follow up on this throughout the process and ensure that there will be no mistakes."

"That's good."

Yang Xiaotao smiled seriously, then looked at Mr. Ye and said, "Master, this satellite phone and program-controlled electronic switch are two different projects."

"So, I think Teacher Shu needs to take on more responsibilities."

Shu Xingbei reacted and then realized something.

"In this case, you will be in charge of the satellite call, and Teacher Shu will be the assistant."

"As for the program-controlled electronic switch project, let Mr. Shu take charge of it. What do you think?"

After hearing this, Mr. Ye immediately slapped his head on the table and nodded, "It should have been done a long time ago. I'm old now, and it's time for me to give them some seats."

"But I'm still a little overwhelmed with this satellite phone. You need to find someone to help you!"

"Okay, no problem! I'll find someone later!"

As soon as Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, Shu Xingbei disagreed, "Teacher Ye, you are being too kind. I, Shu Xingbei, never care about opinions, and I have never thought about fighting for power and gain. You say that, and I, Shu Xingbei, am ashamed!"

Seeing that he was excited, Mr. Ye quickly reached out and grabbed him, "Old Shu!"

After he finished speaking, Mr. Ye looked at Xingbei in a daze, and Teacher Shu also looked at him, and they were speechless for a moment.

"Teacher Shu, right now!"

As Old Master Ye spoke, he looked at Shu Xingbei, and then at Yang Xiaotao. Shu Xingbei followed Old Master Ye's gaze to Yang Xiaotao, and then looked back at Old Master Ye.

Then I heard Mr. Ye say earnestly, "You should have seen it!"

"At our age, we are able to embark on the road of scientific exploration again. Do we still care about those details?"

Upon hearing this, Teacher Shu Xingbei's breathing paused. He opened his mouth, but felt that he couldn't utter the words in his throat.

But a warm feeling arose in my heart.

An indescribable feeling of being moved.

If one must ask where this feeling of being touched comes from, he would say that it is a feeling of being touched by a close friend.

It comes from treating each other sincerely.

Perhaps, it can be described as "a scholar dies for his confidant". In silence, the two people in the study room actually had the illusion of looking at each other without saying a word.

"Teachers, you don't have to be so modest. You are all the pillars of our nine departments anyway. Why do you need to be so clearly divided?"

Yang Xiaotao tried to persuade him at this time, and Old Ye shook his head again, "We are not the pillars of the Ninth Department."

Teacher Shu also nodded and said in agreement, "We are at most the pillars of a house, but you are the pillar that stabilizes the entire building!"

Yang Xiaotao was stunned.

He never thought that he could be the mainstay, at most he was just a supporting role.

"Xiao Tao, if this happens, our research funding may be tight."

Mr. Ye was a little worried. After all, the funding for satellite phones was already tight, and if he started another project, the funding would definitely be tight.

Shu Xingbei also looked over. This was one of the reasons why he came here.

But Yang Xiaotao didn't care at all. "You don't need to worry about the funding. The initial investment is 50,000 as the start-up cost."

"I will approve one million for research expenses later. Of course, this depends on the situation. If there is more, I will refund or pay more."

Yang Xiaotao said it lightly, but the two of them were shaken in their hearts when they heard it.

This is fifty thousand or one million.

This is not a small amount!
Yang Xiaotao saw the two of them like this, so he smiled and said, "Master, Teacher Shu, it's about the money, hehe."

Yang Xiaotao came up to him and whispered, "We still have nearly half of the 100 million left, and this time, after the delivery of our plane, we will receive another 200 million, so..."

"We have money!"

After hearing what Yang Xiaotao said, the two were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.

The fact that the nine ministries are rich means that they have enough funds for research.

"Well, let's take this opportunity to talk about the satellite phone."

"The Chinese Academy of Sciences is almost ready now, so we have to speed up."

Yang Xiaotao quickly changed the subject. The two looked at each other and then got back into the conversation.

Night falls.

The snow outside became sparse, and the ground was covered with a thick blanket of snow.

The sizzling aroma of meat came out of the pressure cooker in Yang's house and soon drifted into the yard through the doors and windows.

At the dinner table, the sounds of toasting, shouting, and children's laughter made the room lively.

It's so hot that you can't feel the cold outside.

The entire courtyard also became much more joyful in this atmosphere.

Qin family.

Qin Huairu put the coal briquettes in the stove and then sat beside it in a daze.

Xiaodang took Huaihua to play in the yard. She was the only one at home, and it seemed very lonely.

Yan Fugui and his family in the front yard returned from the northwest.

Also brought back information from the northwest.

First it was Liu Haizhong’s family. Although everyone treated it as a pastime after dinner, they still sighed when they heard what happened to Liu Haizhong’s family.

Then there was the news that Yan Fugui inadvertently revealed, about Sha Zhu's father, He Daqing.

Unexpectedly, He Daqing is still alive.

What was even more unexpected was that He Daqing used his skills to find another widow.

This time when I met Yan Fugui on the farm, I specifically asked about Sha Zhu's situation.

Yan Fugui did not hide anything and told what had happened in the courtyard over the years.

After hearing this, He Daqing fell silent.

Later, he asked Yan Fugui to come back and bring a message saying that he was living well in the northwest, and if Sha Zhu had nowhere to go, he could go to the northwest to find him.

Yan Fugui naturally would not refuse, but he would not go to find Sha Zhu either, so he told her this.

The purpose is to let her pass on the message.

patter
The sound of burning wood came from the stove. Qin Huairu hurriedly tilted the iron hook and thought about how to tell Sha Zhu.

There was a crunching sound of footsteps on snow outside the door. Qin Huairu hurried to the window and looked up to see Yang Xiaotao and Zhou Kui supporting two people walking towards Ye's house.

The two of them came in and helped light the stove in the house. It took more than half an hour before they left the Ye family.

Looking at Yang Xiaotao's departing back, a faint sadness filled my heart.

"Maybe it would be nice to go to the northwest."

"What? Fifty thousand?"

The next day, in the ninth department, in Yang Xiaotao’s office.

Li Hongfeng was standing aside, and when he heard that Yang Xiaotao was going to set up a new research group, his expression was very serious.

Especially when I heard about the research funds approved by Yang Xiaotao, I became even more suspicious, wondering if this guy didn't take the money seriously.

The Jiubu family has a large fortune, but it cannot be wasted like this.

"Yes, fifty thousand. Moreover, this fifty thousand is just for the initial research of myself. We will have to increase the investment later."

Yang Xiaotao replied in the same serious tone.

"Increase investment? How much?"

"It could be a million. It could be ten million."

Yang Xiaotao spoke seriously, and Li Hongfeng sat down on the chair, not wanting to talk.

Liu Huaimin, who was standing by, also had a speechless look on his face. Seeing that Li Hongfeng didn't say anything, he took the initiative to say, "But, but this fifty thousand, the higher-ups only gave fifty thousand for the insulin research.

"Isn't this a bit much?"

Liu Huaimin was referring to the project proposed by Wang Guangmei to study human insulin.

At that time, Mr. Chen gave 50,000 yuan in research funds.

Could it be that the importance of this new project is comparable to this one?
After hearing this, Yang Xiaotao said earnestly, "Old Liu, Teacher Wang and his team's research should be done even if it costs five million, not to mention five hundred thousand, because once it is done, the benefits will be greater than that of the scalper brand insulin."

"Similarly, if Professor Shu's research topic can be realized, its importance will only be higher than that of human insulin."

Liu Huaimin didn't know what to say after hearing this, but finally asked, "Is this your idea, or is it Teacher Shu and the others'?"

Yang Xiaotao didn't think about it. "It was Professor Shu who told me that. I think it's necessary to study it. Besides, I'm optimistic about this research."

Hearing this, Liu Huaimin relaxed his frown and said to Li Hongfeng with emotion, "Forget it, Old Li. We are all outsiders. Let's not get involved in this matter."

After hearing what Yang Xiaotao said, Liu Huaimin made up his mind.

After all the past events, he understands Yang Xiaotao better than Li Hongfeng.

As long as it is something Yang Xiaotao values, he will do it without any hesitation.

Not only him, but also Yang Youning, Chen Gong, Wang Guodong and others have reached a consensus on this issue.

Seeing Liu Huaimin said this, Li Hongfeng couldn't continue to insist, and then looked at Yang Xiaotao, "Since you have made up your mind, I have nothing to say."

"However, the flow and use of funds must be strictly approved and controlled."

Yang Xiaotao naturally had no objection.

Even if they didn't mention it, Yang Xiaotao would take the initiative to mention it, "No problem, Lao Liu, you can lead someone to supervise this. If there are not enough people, we can go to the school to recruit more people."

Speaking of going to the school to recruit people, Liu Huaimin immediately turned his head to look at Li Hongfeng.

When Li Hongfeng was looked at by Liu Huaimin, he was a little panicked. "Don't look at me like that. I can't do this job of poaching people from the school."

Yang Xiaotao was also helpless after hearing this.

There are still too few talented people in the Ninth Department.

Especially talents in mathematics, physics and chemistry are in great demand in every department these days.

Moreover, many universities have specialized laboratories, and many talented people are retained by the schools, leaving other departments helpless.

Yang Xiaotao wanted the Ninth Department to grow stronger, so he had to find a way to recruit people.

"I think it's better to let Lao Chen do this."

Liu Huaimin said tentatively, but Yang Xiaotao's eyes lit up.

Li Hongfeng nodded even more vigorously.

Chen Gong, this guy is from the old Sijiu City.

Let him do this, there will be no problem.

"I can see it."

"I think that's okay too."
