Professor Gu's daily life in the countryside after his rebirth

Li Yuquan looked at the young man in front of him whose face was slightly flushed by the scorching sun, and quickly asked Gu Zhan to sit down. After a while, an office staff came in and brought Gu Zhan a cup of tea.

"Thank you!" Gu Zhan took the tea and placed it on the table with a smile.

From then on, it was mostly Li Yuquan asking questions and Gu Zhan answering them. What's your name? Where do you live?

During the whole process, Li Yuquan was observing Gu Zhan's every move. After seeing that his words and deeds were beyond his expectations, he felt a sense of anticipation in his heart. Could this young man be the one who met the requirements of this job, and could he help the city solve the current work difficulties?

In order to verify his guess, Li Yuquan took an English book, paper and pen from his desk and handed them to Gu Zhan.

Meeting Li Yuquan's expectant eyes, Gu Zhan took the book, opened it and took a quick look. It was a book on agricultural professional planting.

Because the content of the book is very professional, it may seem a bit obscure and difficult for outsiders to understand, especially some professional terms, but for Gu Zhan, a scientific research leader in the agricultural field in his previous life, it is a piece of cake.

"Gu Zhan, please try translating it. Just the first paragraph of the first page."

Li Yuquan raised his wrist and looked at his watch: "I'll give you an hour and a half." Then he walked back to his desk, took out an English dictionary and placed it in front of Gu Zhan.

Gu Zhan glanced at the first paragraph of the book's front page, which was nothing more than an introduction to the research background, purpose, and significance. Gu Zhan wrote the translation content in order on the white paper given by Li Yuquan without any hesitation.

Watching Gu Zhan writing almost without thinking, Li Yuquan was a little disappointed at first, thinking that he might have met an arrogant young man. However, when Gu Zhan came to the back, Li Yuquan took a closer look and was shocked. Although he did not understand English, looking at the content of Gu Zhan's translation, it should be similar, and Gu Zhan translated very quickly without using an English dictionary.

Li Yuquan excitedly turned around a few times on the ground. After Gu Zhan handed him the content he had translated, he hurriedly called his superior.

"Director Liu, a young man just arrived here, also taking the test. He translated the first paragraph, and it's almost identical to the translation by the expert we found in the provincial capital. I even think the content is more fluent than the translation provided by the provincial expert. In short, this young man is very capable."

About half an hour later, a tall middle-aged man and a young man hurried to Li Yuquan's office.

Before entering the door, he called out to Li Yuquan and asked, "Li Yuquan, where are you?"

Li Yuquan hurriedly stood up and went out to greet him: "Director Liu, you are finally here. You are in my office."

The middle-aged man called Director Liu walked past Li Yuquan and walked into Li Yuquan's office first.

Gu Zhan had heard the noise outside long ago and stood up from the sofa.

Li Yuquan caught up from behind, walked into the office, and introduced him to Liu Jianhua: "Director, this is the young man Gu Zhan I told you about."

Liu Jianhua took a rough look at Gu Zhan and saw that the young man in front of him was tall and slender, with clear and bright eyes. Even his coarse clothes could not hide his elegance. As Li Yuquan said, he was indeed not a simple person.

"Gu Zhan, this is Director Liu from our Municipal Agriculture Bureau."

"Hello, Gu Zhan."

Liu Jianhua took the lead in extending his hand towards Gu Zhan, who shook hands respectfully in return.

Liu Jianhua didn't want to waste any more time and said straight to the point, "Comrade Gu Zhan, please take a seat. Let's get straight to the point."

"it is good!"

"Please briefly tell me the main content of this book."

Liu Jianhua thought that asking this question would be somewhat difficult, as he not only had to quickly understand the content of the book, but also had to consider the English level of the person in front of him.

Gu Zhan knew the concerns of Director Liu in front of him. He opened the book and took a quick look at the table of contents, and he knew the basic content of the book.

"This book discusses some technical issues related to large-scale cultivation, including..."

Liu Jianhua listened carefully to Gu Zhan's words. Especially when Gu Zhan was reading a book while speaking, Liu Jianhua was a little shocked. With such a vocabulary and translation skills, there was probably no one else in the whole city. So Liu Jianhua made a direct decision: "It's you, Gu Zhan."

Li Yuquan was very proud because he had discovered this talent. Fortunately, he did not judge people by their appearance, otherwise he would have missed out on such a talented person.

"Director, we plan to recruit three people this time. Gu Zhan has taken up one position, so there are two left. What do you think..."

"The remaining two places will be filled as planned, with the best candidates selected through an exam the day after tomorrow. We must pay attention to selecting the best candidates. Our farmers can't wait any longer, and Jingshi's agriculture can't wait any longer. We must solve the current situation of our farmers relying on the weather for their livelihoods as quickly as possible."

Then, Liu Jianhua turned his attention to Gu Zhan: "Comrade Gu Zhan, when can you start work?"

"anytime."

Liu Jianhua was very satisfied with Gu Zhan's answer and ordered someone to quickly bring the books over.

"Director Liu, there is something I need to ask you for help."

"What's the matter? Is it about accommodation? I've had someone prepare a lounge for you here. You can use it until the translation work is finished."

Liu Jianhua had started thinking about this issue when he knew that Gu Zhan was not from the city. Since he was going to hire someone, he had to solve his worries so that he could work here with peace of mind.

"Thank you for your kindness, Director Liu. Since you are such a director, can I apply to take the book home to work? I have a pregnant wife at home who needs to be taken care of."

Hearing Gu Zhan's request, Liu Jianhua frowned. It was not that he was unreasonable, but the translation work of the batch of books on hand needed to be carried out urgently and could not be delayed. The main leaders of the city had been urging him recently, so he had no choice but to issue a notice to recruit people from the whole society.

Now that Gu Zhan has taken the book back, will it affect work efficiency?

After thinking for a while, Liu Jianhua asked, "Gu Zhan, how long does it take you to translate a book?"

"The book I have now will take about two days."

"Two days?"

Liu Jianhua pondered for a moment and said, "How about this? You stay here and translate the contents of the book you have. We'll have an expert from the province review it. If there are no major problems, you can take it home and translate it. How about that?"

Gu Zhan knew that Liu Jianhua was very reasonable to agree to his almost unreasonable proposal, so he agreed.
