90: The submarine nuclear reactor project has been launched! The spring of the Dragon Kingdom's nuclear-powered submarine has arrived!

Although he complained in his heart, Lin Qi remained calm on his face.

Soon.

After the warm family dinner, Lin Qi proposed to leave before 8 PM.

After all, this was Old Huang's home, and the elderly couple were quite old.

Even if they went to bed late, they usually went to sleep around nine or ten o'clock.

If Lin Qi stayed until then, although Old Huang wouldn't say anything, there would definitely be some estrangement in their hearts.

Moreover, the family education Lin Qi received since childhood also prevented him from doing such a thing.

After agreeing on the time to enter the Nuclear Energy Institute tomorrow, Lin Qi and Shen Wanyue left Old Huang's home and went straight to the place arranged by National Security colleagues for rest.

Looking at the extremely quiet and secluded courtyard, which was at most half an hour's drive from the Nuclear Energy Institute, Lin Qi couldn't help but curl his lips and say, "Goodness, no wonder they say being an official is good. Look at this place, ordinary people might not be able to live here their whole lives!"

Shen Wanyue didn't speak.

After all, there was no way to respond to such a topic.

Fortunately, Lin Qi didn't have any cynical moral Cleanliness, and after satisfying his verbal craving, he quickly blended into the courtyard.

'What a pity, although the environment is good, there are no electronic products from later generations.'

'I wonder if, with the technologies I provide in this life, there will be some technologies that didn't exist in my previous life?'

'Especially the Holographic AR Training Pod.'

'If this thing could be used for civilian purposes and connected to the internet, tsk tsk tsk, who knows how many eye-catching masterpieces could appear!'

Thinking about the shooting games he played in his previous life, especially horror games, Lin Qi's lips unconsciously curved slightly.

'Perhaps if I have time in the future, I can design a few such games, just as entertainment for the soldiers!'

"Then..."

"That's it for today?"

Lin Qi looked at Shen Wanyue and said, "After all, we'll be busy tomorrow, so get some rest early today so you won't be too tired and fall asleep early tomorrow."

Shen Wanyue nodded.

Having worked together for so long, she knew Lin Qi's temperament well; he was always the most serious when it came to official business.

Watching Shen Wanyue enter the room across the hall, Lin Qi took a deep breath, seeing the antique stone table and tea set in the adjacent courtyard.

Especially the clearly well-maintained grape vine pergola not far away, Lin Qi shrugged and walked into his room.

Soon.

The night passed without a word.

As the morning sun once again spread across the land and the gentle morning breeze brushed through the window, Lin Qi ate the steamed buns and soy milk that Shen Wanyue had somehow gotten, and thanked her, "You've worked hard. After this project is over, I'll treat you to a good meal! No! I'll treat you to ten meals! I must thank you formally!"

Shen Wanyue smiled and shook her head.

Seeing that she was about to say something about it being her duty, Lin Qi quickly waved his hand and said, "Alright, alright, I know my own situation. If I were you, I would have probably given up a long time ago!"

"So..."

"I'm treating you, and you have to accept it. After all, after treating you, I can feel more at ease letting you take care of me!"

Shen Wanyue: "Is that a human thing to say?"

Lin Qi laughed heartily, "Of course!"

Shen Wanyue: "......"

Chatting and laughing, they finished breakfast. Soon, with Shen Wanyue driving and Lin Qi reviewing the material in his mind during the journey, the two once again stood before the Nuclear Energy Institute.

"Xiao Lin! Little Shen, you're early! It's still half an hour before the agreed time, and you're already here?"

"Good morning, Old Huang!" Seeing that Old Huang was already standing at the entrance, clearly having waited for a while, Lin Qi and Shen Wanyue quickly got out of the car and said, "We just wanted to come early and start working early! We didn't expect, Old Huang, that you would arrive even earlier than us?"

Old Huang waved his hand.

"I'm old, I sleep less. Staying at home is just staying at home, so it's better to come here earlier after breakfast. I can also help you keep an eye on them."

The "them" Old Huang referred to were naturally Jiang Chen and the other researchers they saw yesterday.

Clearly, from Old Huang's words, these researchers were similar to those in his own institute, the kind who get so busy they don't go home.

But it's quite normal when you think about it.

Just like people who love games will play all night, for researchers, this world-leading project before them is their passion.

Naturally, they all want to complete it as soon as possible and achieve the sense of accomplishment that will draw worldwide attention.

After some lighthearted chatting, Lin Qi and Old Huang soon entered the large room again, which was called the Ship Nuclear Reactor Research Lab.

"Good morning, Teacher! Good morning, Chief Engineer Lin!"

"Good morning, Old Huang! Good morning, Chief Engineer Lin!"

......

Seeing Lin Qi and Old Huang appear, everyone who had been waiting for a long time greeted them.

Lin Qi and Old Huang nodded repeatedly.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Lin Qi took a deep breath and told everyone to continue with their work. He then asked Jiang Chen for the current project progress report.

After flipping through it for more than half an hour, Lin Qi finally got a complete understanding of the project's current status.

'Not bad, as expected of a team led by Old Huang. Although the project is very difficult, it's still progressing in an orderly manner.'

'And to be honest, while this reactor indeed has many outdated aspects, it's not entirely without merits.'

'By building on these merits and adding the technology from the nuclear reactor design blueprints, I believe this reactor can be improved by at least 50%!'

With thoughts surging in his mind, Lin Qi directly expressed to Old Huang his intention to temporarily take over the laboratory.

Old Huang didn't refuse upon hearing this; he even stated that if needed, even he would be Lin Qi's subordinate!

Upon hearing this?

Lin Qi smiled, "Since you say so, Old Huang, then I won't be modest. In my vision, there are indeed some things you can do."

"Oh? Really?! What is it? Hurry, hurry, I, this old man, haven't been this excited in a long time!"

Hearing Lin Qi's words, Old Huang's eyes instantly widened, his excitement evident.

Lin Qi didn't play coy, but directly assigned "tasks" to Old Huang, and then told Jiang Chen and the other researchers what they needed to do.

For a moment.

Listening to Lin Qi's incredibly clear instructions, Jiang Chen and the others even subconsciously forgot Lin Qi's age!

They all thought he was an old senior, an old national scholar of the same age as Old Huang!

However...

After all, everyone was working on nuclear reactors. Soon, the crowd gradually figured out whether Lin Qi's methods were feasible based on his instructions.

"My goodness! It can actually be done this way? Why didn't I think of it before?

Yes! If this part is improved, or even discarded directly, wouldn't the energy operation here be even better?"

"Goodness, as expected of Chief Engineer Lin. With just a few words, he solved a problem that has troubled us for so many years?"

"Quick, quick, quick! I'm already impatient to see how powerful the energy ratio the improved reactor can produce!"
