1970s Gangster Couple NOT MTL

80

Wang Wei became anxious when he heard that Xiao Xiao had not eaten until now. He immediately led her home, frowning and unhappy, "Are you silly? Didn't the Dong family feed you? Why did you stay so long?" Who will feel sorry for you if you starve?

Xiao Xiao hurriedly said, "Don't be angry, Grandpa Dong and Dong Wei are very nice. How could they not feed me? It's mainly because I got carried away talking with Grandpa Dong and forgot the time. Besides, I'm not used to eating anything that's not made by you. If I did that at someone else's house, wouldn't they say I'm impolite?"

Hearing this, Wang Wei's lips quirked, and he huffed, "Don't think a few nice words can make this situation of you being hungry go away!"

From the moment they left the Dong family's doorstep, the two of them were inseparable, leaving Professor Chen unable to get a word in. Seizing an opportunity, he quickly said, "Xiao Xiao, this project will be led by you. I'll assist you. Tell me your requirements, and I'll start preparing now."

"Teacher, let's go to my house. I'll write it down for you." Xiao Xiao finally remembered Professor Chen.

"Good, good, let's go to your house."

Professor Chen followed Xiao Xiao and Wang Wei to the small courtyard they rented. While Wang Wei cooked dinner, Xiao Xiao listed all the experimental requirements.

Upon seeing the list, Professor Chen's face showed difficulty, "Xiao Xiao, we don't have the equipment you've listed here." Huaguo is now impoverished and has no advanced experimental equipment.

Hearing this, Xiao Xiao frowned. She had researched these devices, which existed in this world, albeit crude by her standards, but still better than nothing. She had not expected that Huaguo lacked even such equipment.

"Can we find slightly inferior substitutes?" She could create a quantum computer by herself, but doing so would be too shocking and unconventional. She wanted to follow the experimental steps of this world, take it slow, ideally involving more people in this project to thoroughly research quantum computing, while also building up a talent pool for Huaguo.

After struggling for a while, Professor Chen nodded with difficulty, "I'll report this up and see if we can meet your requirements."

Xiao Xiao nodded, "Okay, also, teacher, if there are people who want to join this project, as long as they are confirmed to be suitable, let them all join."

Upon hearing this, Professor Chen immediately nodded, "You can count on me. Ever since your quantum mechanics theory was published, the physics research institute has almost gone mad. If they could join the project you're leading, they would undoubtedly be eager." He understood Xiao Xiao's intention; even if she was outstanding on her own, ultimately, she couldn't be everywhere at once. Completing the quantum computer project while also cultivating talent for Hua country was equally important.

Professor Chen took the list of requirements from Xiao Xiao and left in a hurry without even stopping for dinner.

Xiao Xiao waited for Professor Chen to complete the preliminary preparations. She stayed home and read books for the next few days. However, during these days, the number of people sent to protect her increased. A small courtyard was guarded like a fortress.

Even when she went out for a short while, several plainclothes guards followed her.

It must be said, when the Huaguo government decided to do something, their efficiency was very high. In just three days, the site, equipment, and personnel were all prepared. Even finding substitutes for the equipment Xiao Xiao listed was challenging, but they still managed to procure them promptly.
