"Okay, President Sun." Gu Zhan agreed readily.

Sun Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was very confident in Zhang Yunhe, these articles were too professional and unpopular. Even someone with a good command of English would feel pressured after reading them.

Sun Yuan had already made preparations in his mind. As long as Gu Zhan could roughly translate the meaning of the article accurately, he would make use of this young man.

Sun Yuan brought the person into the conference room, took out some white paper and a pen and handed them to Gu Zhan.

Gu Zhan happily accepted it and sat at the table to concentrate on translating.

Sun Yuan prayed in his heart, hoping that this young man would meet the job requirements.

Their current work progress has fallen far behind. Ontario's agriculture has entered a critical period of increasing production, and Ontario farmers can no longer wait.

Ontario's agriculture must also improve and be able to adequately feed the people here.

Gu Zhan flipped through this highly professional paper and finally found the feeling he had when doing scientific research in his previous life, being serious, dedicated and meticulous.

Zhang Yunhe and Sun Yuan were sitting opposite the table, watching Gu Zhan pick up the pen. They were so nervous that they didn't dare to breathe, for fear of disturbing the concentration of the person opposite them.

The rustling sound of writing was heard, and Sun Yuan's eyes were filled with surprise and smile.

It seems that the young man in front of him is really capable. His doubts about Gu Zhan's ability have dissipated. Now it is a test of his accuracy in professional vocabulary translation.

During the moment when Sun Yuan was distracted, Gu Zhan had already translated a page of paper. Sun Yuan excitedly wanted to go over and take a look, but Zhang Yunhe stopped him with a look.

"What are you doing?" Zhang Yunhe said in a low voice.

"I'll just take a look."

"Wait until the translation is finished before reading it."

Zhang Yunhe knew Gu Zhan's abilities, and he also knew that Gu Zhan had no pressure at all in translating the manuscript, so he stopped Sun Yuan from taking the manuscript to take a look, and he also meant to show off Gu Zhan's abilities to Sun Yuan.

Sun Yuan's heart beat fast as he looked at Gu Zhan's fluent writing style and the translated manuscripts that he kept placing on his left hand.

Finally, half an hour later, Gu Zhan raised his head from the paper.

He slowly put the cap on the pen in his hand, then piled the translated manuscript into a pile, stood up, walked to Sun Yuan, and handed the manuscript to Sun Yuan.

Sun Yuan couldn't wait any longer.

He quickly took the translation manuscript from Gu Zhan's hand and read it sentence by sentence. He felt that the words translated by Gu Zhan seemed to have great power, which could present knowledge in front of him in the form of words.

As for the professional terms, it can be said that there is no difference at all from what he knows.

"It's done, Lao Zhang, it's done. The young man in front of me is the one I'm looking for. Lao Zhang, thank you so much." Sun Yuan thanked Zhang Yunhe incoherently.

Zhang Yunhe smiled knowingly, "It's all for our country and our people. I have no reason to refuse. No need to thank me, Old Sun. I'm honored to be able to help you."

Indeed, Zhang Yunhe had also been there and had labor experience, so he was full of sympathy and understanding for the lives of ordinary people. He also hoped that the ordinary people here could have enough food and clothing.

When Gu Zhan saw all this, his eyes became slightly moist. In his previous life, he had also devoted his whole life to agricultural scientific research with this mentality. Now in this difficult era, seeing his predecessors working hard with such beliefs, he couldn't help but feel a sense of empathy.

Sun Yuan patted Gu Zhan's shoulder excitedly and said excitedly: "Well done, young man."

Dinner was eaten in the institute's cafeteria. After all, it was a provincial institute, so the food was better than in the city or county, but still not as good as the home-cooked meals of ordinary people in later generations.

There were steamed buns made from a mixture of wheat flour and cornmeal, a plate of fried shredded potatoes, a plate of cold beans, and finally a plate of stewed pork ribs with potatoes.

When Gu Zhan came in, he noticed that there was no stewed potatoes with pork ribs in the staff meal. It seemed that Sun Yuan had specially asked for this dish to be added.

"Come, Lao Sun, Gu Zhan, have a taste. These steamed buns are made from the wheat and corn grown in our research institute. These potatoes and beans are all grown from seeds we cultivated."

"Then I have to try it carefully to see how the seeds cultivated by you, an old fellow, are doing. Come on, Xiao Gu, pick up your chopsticks."

After Sun Yuan and Zhang Yunhe started eating, Gu Zhan picked up his chopsticks and tasted a bite of shredded potatoes. The shredded potatoes were fried according to the local style and were slightly soft, but the potatoes themselves had a good starch content, which was the best food to fill the stomach in this era.

There are also beans. Although they are not as good as the newly cultivated varieties in later generations, they still taste very good at present.

"Well, not bad. It seems that you, an old man, did not slack off. What you researched is pretty good." Zhang Yunhe tasted the dishes one by one and said with a smile.

Sun Yuan laughed triumphantly: "Now that we have the help of Comrade Gu Zhan, I believe that our Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences will be even more powerful. I believe that in a few years, the people's dinner tables will not only have sweet potato porridge and cornmeal cakes.

"I like to hear that."

The guests and hosts enjoy a meal together.

After the meal, Zhang Yunhe left the Academy of Agricultural Sciences and went back, leaving Gu Zhan to talk with Sun Yuan at the Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

Because Gu Zhan's situation had already been mentioned on the phone, Sun Yuan did not ask much. There had been frequent developments recently, and the country would soon get better. In addition, Gu Zhan had outstanding abilities, so Sun Yuan was not worried that there would be any problems with the young man in front of him.

Therefore, Sun Yuan asked more about Gu Zhan's thoughts on English.

Gu Zhan had originally told Liu Xiaoxi that he would be back in about four days, but looking at the progress of the work here, he must first translate a batch of manuscripts for emergency use before he can go back. Otherwise, Sun Yuan might not let him go.

Taking this opportunity, Gu Zhan also made things clear with Sun Yuan in advance: "President Sun, how about this? I'll stay at our provincial research institute for a few days and translate a batch of the most important manuscripts for you to keep as a backup. I'll take the rest home and translate them. How do you think?"

Sun Yuan did not expect Gu Zhan to raise this question. To be more precise, he thought Gu Zhan would choose to stay in the provincial research institute to translate the manuscript.

Now, the proposal put forward by Gu Zhan made him feel a little embarrassed.

"Xiao Gu, is it okay for me to call you that?"

"No problem, please help yourself."

"Xiao Gu, do you have any difficulties? If it's about food and accommodation, our Agricultural Science Academy will definitely take care of it for you. There are staff dormitories for accommodation and a cafeteria for food, so you don't have to worry."

Gu Zhan pursed his lips and smiled, saying gratefully, "Thank you, Dean Sun, for your kindness. It's not really a matter of food and accommodation, but I have a pregnant wife to take care of at home, so it's not convenient for me to be here."

"Is that so?" Sun Yuan rested his chin on his hand and thought for a moment before saying, "Okay, no problem. You can take it home for translation, but the contents of the manuscript must be kept strictly confidential."

Although there are some trends now, there is no clear conclusion, so if these manuscripts are circulated, it may cause some inconvenience.

"That's no problem. I'm willing to sign a confidentiality agreement."

"it is good."

Sun Yuan readily agreed.
