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

In order to save time, Gu Zhan put his luggage in the lounge and handed Gao Yuan the list of material requirements he had prepared at home.

Gao Yuan was anxious to avoid delays, so he took the order and quickly asked his subordinates to purchase the necessary materials overnight.

After a while, the staff member took the list back and handed it to Gao Yuan with a hesitant look on his face.

Gao Yuan took the order with confusion: "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

The purchasing staff member stammered, "Director Gao, is there really no problem with this order?"

Gao Yuan then took a closer look at the list Gu Zhan had drawn up. It listed rice, charcoal, cooked steamed buns... cooked corn cobs... all of which were common ingredients. Among them, rice was probably the hardest to get. The north mainly ate pasta, so rice was rare, but it was not unavailable.

Gao Yuan was not sure at this moment. After thinking about it, he felt that there was only one possibility, that is, Gu Zhan might have taken the wrong order.

Gao Yuan hurriedly took the list to the lounge and asked Gu Zhan to confirm it again.

There have been a lot of things going on these days, and the translation progress of the batch of books from the Municipal Agricultural Technology Center has been delayed a lot. It happened that he had some free time at this time, so Gu Zhan took out the books, paper and pen and started working for a while.

As soon as Gao Yuan arrived at the door, he saw Gu Zhan working at his desk. He was about to raise his hand to knock on the door when Gu Zhan raised his head and looked towards the door.

Gao Yuan lowered his raised arm and walked in with a smile: "Comrade Gu Zhan, I came here to confirm with you whether this list of required raw materials is correct?"

Then he gave the list to Gu Zhan.

Gu Zhan was stunned. He had confirmed the list and given it to the staff, so it was unlikely that there would be any mistakes.

Taking the list, Gu Zhan glanced at it and said, "No problem, that's it."

Gao Yuan touched his head embarrassedly: "I thought the raw materials you needed would be very complicated, and I was worried about where to get them."

Gu Zhan smiled gently: "This is our current situation. If the conditions are not met, even the most complex process will have to be simplified."

"That's true."

Gao Yuan came out of Gu Zhan's lounge and handed the list to the staff again: "No problem, just buy what's on the list."

"Ah? Okay. So, is penicillin really that simple, Brother Gao? Shouldn't we learn it if we just study it?"

"See what you can do, kid."

That evening, all the necessary items on Gu Zhan's list had been purchased, and the two staff members, Guo Kai and Zheng Guodong, who were transferred to him from the County Agricultural Technology Center by Zhu Changzhi, were also in place, waiting for Gu Zhan to start work.

After dinner, Gu Zhan brought the hot steamed buns and corn cobs that had just been delivered from the cafeteria to the laboratory. He spread them out neatly, covered them with a cloth, and then closed the door and left.

The two staff members looked at Gu Zhan's action and looked at each other in confusion. What was he doing?

Who can't arrange steamed buns and corn neatly? Could it be that Director Zhu hired a con man in the countryside?

The two, filled with questions, reported the entire incident to Gao Yuan. "Director, you don't know, that kid called Gu Zhan, he just placed the steamed buns on a wooden board and covered it with a cloth. This... don't you think this is nonsense?"

After Guo Kai finished speaking, Zheng Guodong also found it difficult to understand and chimed in, "This... not to mention that he's wasting food, with that pretty face of his, can he actually produce penicillin? Don't let him delay our business."

Gao Yuan's heart began to beat fast after hearing this. The doubts of these two staff members were also the doubts in his heart.

But then he thought of Director Zhu's trust in the young man and felt that he could wait and see. Besides, Director Zhu would be back tomorrow morning at the latest, so there would still be time to make a decision after he returned.

When Gao Yuan left the yard at night, he looked through the laboratory window and actually saw steamed buns and corn neatly arranged on a wooden board.

At night, Gu Zhan continued to work overtime translating the manuscript and did not go to bed until two o'clock in the morning.

After borrowing the equipment, Zhu Changzhi did not dare to delay for a moment. He set out from Jingshi before dawn and returned at a little after seven in the morning.

Gu Zhan heard some noise in the yard, opened the door and saw Zhu Changzhi carrying boxes down from the car.

Gu Zhan hurried out to help.

"Xiao Gu, are you still used to staying here last night?"

"Very good, Chief Zhu."

"If you need anything, just tell us and we'll do our best to help you."

"Okay, Chief, these are all I need for now."

After saying that, Gu Zhan, Zhu Changzhi and the driver began to move the things in the car downstairs.

There weren't many things, but they were scarce, so we had to be extremely careful during the entire moving process.

After going to work in the morning, Gu Zhan and two staff members officially started their work, placing and installing equipment and conducting tests. After everything was ready, the intensive work officially began.

When Gao Yuan came to work, Zhu Changzhi was already in the office.

Gao Yuan was struggling with this for half the night. After much deliberation, he decided to tell Zhu Changzhi about this matter. What if this kid did something and penicillin could not be produced, which would delay important matters.

"Director, when did you come back?"

Zhu Changzhi stretched his aching shoulders a few times and said with a smile, "I just got back not long ago. I'm really exhausted from this journey."

Gao Yuan stood there, looking at Zhu Changzhi, with an expression as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Zhu Changzhi frowned: "What's the matter? Why are you so hesitant?"

Gao Yuan made up his mind and said, "Director, is that kid surnamed Gu reliable?" Then he told the whole story of Gu Zhan placing the steamed buns last night.

Zhu Changzhi looked at Gao Yuan quietly without saying a word. Gao Yuan felt nervous, as he was not sure what Zhu Changzhi was planning now.

After a while, Zhu Changzhi said, "Gaoyuan, trust people when you employ them, and don't employ people if you don't trust them. I believe this young man. It was he who decided to use medicine to save the cattle of the Shanghe Village Production Brigade."

Gao Yuan was anxious. He retorted, "Director, treating patients with medication and manufacturing pharmaceuticals are two different things. We can't put all our hopes on a young man."

Zhu Changzhi sighed. He was not willing to do such a time-consuming and uncertain task, but there was really no other way now. Now, all the cattle in the entire Jing City were basically at risk of infection.

Veterinary drugs are allocated in fixed quantities each year, and with such a huge demand now, it is difficult for any place to afford it at once.

He also went to the Municipal Animal Husbandry Center to inquire yesterday, and was told that there was not a single bottle of antibiotic veterinary medicine left in the entire city.

The only one I can count on is Gu Zhan.

"Gao Yuan, we have no other choice. We might as well try to trust this young man. I have a feeling he will bring us a surprise."
