Minister Lv, a learned man, was also one of them.
Fang Huai witnessed Mr. Shrew’s eyes widening with surprise once again, only this ti, they were brimming with delight.
"This is great! This is absolutely fantastic!! Wait for , I need to go tell the whole work team! We’ve got our own system architecture, our own dostic platform now! Hahaha..."
Mr. Shrew Lv transford into Sun Wukong in an instant and turned to leave, almost wishing he could sorsault directly into the Administration building.
But after two hurried steps, he noticed Fang Huai hadn’t followed and asked, puzzled:
"Why aren’t you coming?"
"...Didn’t you tell to wait?"
Lv Xianzhi smacked his confused head, turned around, rushed up to Fang Huai, and hurriedly tugged at his arm to go.
"Co on, hurry! Repeat what you just said to the people in the work team!"
...
Once the news spread, the work team, occupying only three offices in the Administration building, was electrified.
It was a big deal!
All the technicians and leaders of the work team arrived within half an hour.
It was as if the forces of heaven and earth were with them!
Having their own system architecture ant they had their own guardians of information! Thus, the research and developnt achievents of this team were strongly secured!
As for the issue of switching to a new system, everyone was confident. They were willing to relearn the new system’s instructions, rewrite and manually supplent them based on the existing frawork!
"As long as there is hope, as long as there is hope, we can start afresh!"
"Haha... The long journey is daunting as if made of iron, but now we stride forward from the very beginning!"
One by one, the faculty mbers in the office let out their youthful enthusiasm, amusing Fang Huai to no end.
"Experts and leaders, once the new system and experts arrive, let’s move fast, shall we? You certainly get paid, but our company’s substantial investnt, like the school, is still awaiting funds from the project approval!"
Everyone laughed heartily.
"Hahaha... Fang Huai, you really are a Little Grandet!"
Police Colonel Luo was also present and, pointing at Fang Huai, joked self-deprecatingly:
"Right, what’s the use of us being in a hurry? Aren’t we working for this little capitalist anyway?"
His words triggered a burst of laughter and desk slapping in agreent.
"Yes, that’s right! Principal Chen, this guy’s graduating, and soon he won’t be under your charge. If we want him to buy servers and build laboratories in the future, we’ll have to be at his rcy!"
"And what about his graduation and commissioning orders, have they co through? I see this guy always asking for leave, not abiding by the school rules; he should be held back for a year!"
"Oh my, sitting in front of a computer all day has wrecked my back, and not even a sip of tea to drink. What are we slaving away for? When the project cos through, it’s not us who’ll be making the money! Right?"
"Eh... that Xinyang Maojian tea from Old Lü is really good... Fang, where did you buy it? After being busy for half a year, I’m also flat broke; it’s ti to indulge!"
Fang Huai looked helplessly at the elders, all making their acidic remarks.
"Dear teachers and leaders, don’t forget, the state will have shares in this! Plus, I’m leaving the academy the day after tomorrow. Tomorrow, for the thirty-two people in the work team plus the fifteen technicians from our company: a box of Wuyi Mountain’s finest Da Hong Pao tea each, afternoon at Yingjiang Building, signature beef, and Little Knife Roast Duck, okay?"
At these words, smiles finally appeared on everyone’s faces.
Principal Luo even walked over to Fang Huai, patted him on the shoulder, and said cheerfully:
"Fang, no need to be so formal! We’re all part of this work team for the dream of strengthening our country! Everyone here is an old Party mber; who would shirk their duties?"
With a tone of utmost integrity, the leadership had spoken, and the rest felt a bit sheepish.
"Of course! Once this system concept is fully realized, our nation’s coastal authority will be firm!"
"That’s not all! If it cos to fruition, won’t it be a monuntal military reform? Aren’t the Aricans’ Washington still at Yokosuka Port? If they dare to co, we’ll chase them and hit them right on their tail!"
The faculty mbers, filled with righteous indignation, excitedly discussed over their cups of tea.
It was at that mont that Principal Luo murmured to Fang Huai with a chuckle:
"Though I still can’t get used to oolong tea. Do you still have so of that Xinyang Maojian for Old Lü?"
Fang Huai turned his head, his eyes wide with surprise.
Principal Luo, chuckling, reminded him, "I heard Little Chen did well this year."
Fang Huai:...
"Give a few days, and I’ll find so for you!"
...
What you put in is what you get out.
It applies both ways.
Whether for the Squadron or for Fang Huai, it was so.
In early June in Guiyang, the heavy rain shrouded the distant mountains.
Taking a Taxi in the rain, all one could hear was the pitter-patter against the window.
By the ti the Taxi went from Longdongbao Airport to the Squadron, the rain had miraculously stopped completely.
Before formally graduating and leaving the Squadron, Fang Huai, who had taken leave to return early, ca back filled with all sorts of grandiose ideas to dazzle everyone. But upon entering, he only saw a single Guard Post and two new recruits clearing the water in the courtyard, and the closed doors of the Squadron’s Garage.
"Captain, you’re back!" The new recruit on guard duty opened the door for Fang Huai and shouted excitedly.
To the new recruits of the Squadron, Fang Huai was soone as revered as a janitor monk, having been at the Military Academy for a good month or so. His return surely ant significant events were about to unfold.
The Regular Company service pin, which had excited Fang Huai for a long ti, didn’t matter to a single new recruit.
Fang Huai scratched his head and looked around. A squadron with people and one without can be distinguished just by the sounds. Speaking out loud felt eerily silent as if the words were suspended in the air.
"Where is everyone? Where have they gone?"
"Reporting, Captain! They all went out last night! There was flooding in the city! Many underground parking lots got subrged! I heard the water even started spilling out from the parking garages’ exits!"
