When Ai Wen found Xu Kuang, Xu Kuang was sitting at the table listening to the report from the Explosives Research Institute:
"The cost of the newly improved first-order cyclone propellant has been reduced by 13% compared to the previous one, and the detonation speed has also been slightly increased. However, we still have a problem, that is, we are short of experimental materials and need to continue to purchase them."
Xu Kuang smiled and said:
"This is not a problem. I have already notified the Ministry of Commerce. In the future, all crystal cores will be selectively acquired. You can first ask if the acquisition has been completed. If not, I will notify the Ministry of Commerce and ask them to expedite the acquisition.
”.
Xu Kuang caught a glimpse of Ai Wen, waved away his men, and asked with a smile:
"coming?".
Ai Wen frowned slightly and said to Xu Kuang:
"You don't look like a good person if you take advantage of your children...".
Xu Kuang smiled and said:
"You are wrong. I am not taking advantage of them. They indeed admire you.".
Ai Wen snorted coldly and said no more.
Xu Kuang smiled and said:
"How am I doing here?".
Aiwen snorted coldly:
"It's not that good. All the researchers look amateurish."
When Xu Kuang heard this, he smiled and said:
"Really? This is exactly the reason why I want you to stay here. With a master like you joining me, my place will soon become stronger."
Ai Wen looked at Xu Kuang blankly and asked:
"why me?".
Xu Kuang smiled and said:
"Because I met you, I invited you."
Ai Wen frowned, feeling even more unhappy.
"The way you put it, I look like the wild flowers and weeds you randomly picked up on the roadside."
Xu Kuang shook his head and said to Ai Wen:
"The ones I picked up on the roadside in Gladiolus City were weeds, but the ones I picked up on the roadside in the Royal Capital were all rare flowers. What do you think?"
Ai Wen frowned, looked at Xu Kuang and asked:
"How are you so sure that I will join you here?".
Xu Kuang shook his head and said:
"I'm not sure either. I've just invited you. I don't know yet whether you agree or not."
Ai Wen was silent. He actually wanted to stay here, but he also understood that Xu Kuang was very ambitious and this was not a place where he could come and leave whenever he wanted.
For a person who advocates freedom, this is really uncomfortable.
Ewen asked:
"If I stay here, how much research funding can I mobilize every year?".
Xu Kuang thought for a while and said to Ai Wen:
"Actually, I don't know. It depends on what kind of project you want to study. If you just want to study a useless project, it may only be tens or hundreds of gold coins. If you are studying a project that can be applied immediately, then
I can only tell you that Momouling will do its best to satisfy you."
Ai Wen frowned, Xu Kuang's answer did not satisfy him.
"Boy, you are too naughty. What you say makes me feel unconfident, do you know that?".
Xu Kuang nodded and said to Ai Wen:
"In that case, you might as well take a look first to see if there is any value for you to stay here. Don't worry, you can also start researching it yourself during this time. All your expenses will be counted on my head."
Ai Wen thought this was actually quite good. He said to Xu Kuang:
"Okay, I'll stay here for a while, and you can find me a place to work."
Xu Kuang stretched out his hand and pointed to a suite in the distance.
"That suite is your research space. You can sort the rooms first, and I can wait for you."
Aiwen said:
"Don't worry, I'll take a look at your place first. It won't be too late to talk about other things after I finish the observation. What do you think?"
Xu Kuang nodded. He was in favor of this arrangement. He knew that if he wanted Ai Wen to stay here, he had to come up with something that could attract him. It was impossible to attract him just by relying on pure benefits.
.
"There is a landline phone in your room. If you need anything, please contact me anytime."
After Xu Kuang finished speaking, he left.
Ai Wen stared blankly at Xu Kuang who left. He couldn't believe that Xu Kuang really trusted him so much?
Muke also felt that Xu Kuang's reaction was not quite right, but he couldn't tell what was wrong, so he had to give up.
"That's all, ignore him, let's visit ours."
Ewen took Mook around the laboratory. He came to a work station, but found that there were no physical objects or tools at the work station, only paper and pens.
This man drew the design drawing carefully, completely unaware of the arrival of Ai Wen and Mook.
But then the man murmured:
"Something's wrong...how could this happen...".
Muke saw this man's problem at a glance, and he said to him:
"The parts you have here are too easy to wear. You can add an anti-wear array...".
After Muke finished speaking, he felt a little regretful. Alchemy priests were most afraid of other people pointing fingers.
Unexpectedly, this man raised his head and said to Muke:
"Thank you very much. I didn't find this problem. What a mistake."
Ai Wen and Muke looked at each other. They stood in front of this man. This man was not angry, but thanked them.
The more Aiwen and Muke looked at it, the more novel they felt, so they waited for this person to finish the design and then asked:
"Why don't you resist other people's advice?".
The man smiled bitterly and said:
"How can we resist? Our level is not enough. According to the lord, we are all still apprentices. We should be taught by others..."
Ai Wen looked at other work stations, then turned his head and asked:
"Is this true for everyone else?".
The man nodded.
Ai Wen didn't say anything and just continued walking.
He took Muke to several workstations in a row, and everything he saw was like this.
Ewen couldn't help but ask Muke:
"Did you find their problem?".
Muke looked at Ai Wen in astonishment and asked:
"what is the problem?".
"This group of people are too craftsmanlike and rarely have their own opinions...".
Muke glanced around guiltily, and then said to Muke:
"Old man, please keep your voice down, or you'll be beaten out."
Ewen said to Mook with an indifferent expression:
"But their advantages are more obvious. They work in groups of five or six people to explain each other's opinions. As long as the method proposed by one of them is reasonable, everyone will focus on that person and verify that person's ideas. They cooperate with each other.
, each person is responsible for one step, and the efficiency is much higher than five people doing it alone.”
Muke looked at Ai Wen in surprise and asked:
"Old man, is this what you are thinking?".
Ewen looked here and did not answer Muk's words.
He had already concluded in his heart that Xu Kuang was a great talent, a great talent without a doubt, or a pioneer.
This kind of research institute is still too weak, but what if it is ten or twenty years from now?
I'm afraid this place will become famous all over the world, and the director of this institute will also go down in history.
