I painted an aircraft carrier on the courtyard house for Dongda University.

Zhou Weiguo said with a wicked grin, "Alright, since you think it's a dream, then it's a dream. But this dream is really good. Come on, let your husband have a good 'taste' of our big star in the dream."

As he spoke, he pounced on her...

The next day, Zhou Weiguo was awakened from his sleep by a knock on the door.

He got up and opened the courtyard gate, only to find that the person who came was the guard who had come with Elder Long yesterday.

The guard gave a stern salute and said solemnly, "Good morning, sir! Elder Long requests your presence. Are you available now?"

Zhou Weiguo was taken aback, and his expression turned serious. He nodded and said, "I understand. Please wait a moment while I change my clothes."

The guard saluted again and stepped aside to wait.

Zhou Weiguo returned to his room to change. Natasha, who had been pretending to be asleep, could no longer keep up the act. Ignoring the fact that she was exposed, she sat up, pouted, and glared at him: "Little master, you're really something! Not only did you drag me to your rescue in the middle of the night on your wedding night, but you're also leaving your little wife and me, your little slave, behind first thing in the morning! Are you going out to 'cheate' on your own?"

Zhou Weiguo glanced at Tian Zao, who was still fast asleep, gently kissed Natasha, and said, "Don't be jealous. I'm going to Haizi's place; it must be something important."

Upon hearing this, Natasha stopped joking and quickly got up to help Zhou Weiguo straighten his clothes.

The car sped along Chang'an Avenue without any obstruction and soon entered Haizi.

Zhou Weiguo followed the guard into a two-story building.

As soon as he entered, he saw Elder Long and Elder Qin sitting on the sofa. Zhou Weiguo instinctively saluted and greeted them.

Old Master Long greeted them with a smile, "Come, come, for the sake of the country, sit down, don't be so polite."

As soon as Zhou Weiguo sat down, Old Qin asked urgently and seriously, "Weiguo, how much do you know about manufacturing precision instruments, high-precision machine tools, and thermal power generation technology?"

This question stumped Zhou Weiguo.

Zhang Wei does have a lot of memories about high-precision machine tools, but most of them are about their use and maintenance.

Simple improvements and upgrades might be possible to find a way, but manufacturing from scratch is extremely difficult, and even if it could be done, it would take a lot of time.

As for other precision instruments and thermal power generation technology, he knew absolutely nothing about them.

Zhou Weiguo quickly explained, "Mr. Qin, I don't know much about this. I can try to improve machine tools, but manufacturing them is too difficult. My current research focuses mainly on military weapons."

Old Master Long sighed, "That's true. No matter how capable you are, you can't possibly know everything."

Zhou Weiguo asked curiously, "Elder Long, what happened? Can you tell me?"

Old Long nodded to Old Qin, who said helplessly, "Actually, it's not a complicated matter. Our country was only recently established, and many technologies are still lagging behind. Like the ones I just mentioned, although we can manufacture them domestically, the gap with international standards is too large. To solve this problem, we wanted to ask Canada for help, but we didn't expect that even Canada isn't mature in some technologies and lags behind European and American countries. More importantly, even if there is a gap, they don't seem very willing to teach us. In the past few years, we gritted our teeth and borrowed some money from Canada. We finally managed to contact the United States and negotiated for a long time before they finally agreed to sell to us. You know, we finally bought some equipment and technology, and it was originally arranged to be shipped back to China soon. But who would have thought that the cargo ship was seized by the United States when it passed through Hong Kong! Yesterday, the news came back that the United States not only seized the ship, but also accused us of smuggling embargoed goods, and even arrested the patriotic Hong Kong businessmen who helped with the purchase."

Zhou Weiguo's eyes lit up, and he asked with delight, "You two want me to handle this and bring the items back?"

The two elders were taken aback at first, but Elder Qin quickly said, "Of course not! For the sake of the country, how could we let you take such a risk? We've already arranged for people to handle it. I just suddenly thought that if you had the technology, we wouldn't have to go through all this trouble."

Zhou Weiguo was somewhat disappointed. He had thought he would be able to go to Hong Kong, but it turned out like this.

Old Long saw through his thoughts and asked with a smile, "You don't really intend to go to Hong Kong yourself and bring the stuff back, do you?"

Zhou Weiguo nodded matter-of-factly: "That's right! With my abilities, this shouldn't be a problem."

Old Qin panicked and hurriedly said, "No, absolutely not! You are now the treasure of our Xia Kingdom, how can you take such a risk?"

Zhou Weiguo rolled his eyes at Old Qin: "What kind of adventure is this? It's just going to get some things back. It's nothing to me."

Old Master Long pondered for a moment, then asked, "For the sake of the country, are you confident? If not, I'd rather lose this foreign exchange than let anything happen to you. Besides, you still have a job at the steel mill, and there are projects we agreed to push forward. What will happen to all of that if you leave?"

Zhou Weiguo quickly explained, "Don't worry! Regardless of whether the mission can be completed, my personal safety is definitely not a problem. I'm the most suitable person to go! The work at the factory has been arranged. As for the new technology, I've prepared the technical data and samples. You just need to arrange for the technical personnel to cooperate with me. Just tell everyone that this is a sample I developed. You can make up a reason. It definitely won't delay the work. If there's anything that can't be handled, we'll talk about it when I get back."

Old Qin was still somewhat hesitant after hearing this.

Old Master Long stood up and paced back and forth.

After a long pause, he walked up to Zhou Weiguo, looked into his eyes, and asked with a determined expression, "Weiguo, I need to confirm with you yesterday, is it true that 'no matter what happens, your safety can be guaranteed'?"

"Absolutely, Elder Long! Don't worry! Think about North Korea; I can move freely in and out of enemy bases with tens of thousands of troops, let alone now!"

Upon hearing this, Elder Long breathed a sigh of relief and slowly nodded: "Alright, you have such confidence in the country today, so I agree to this. However, you must promise to take good care of yourself. You must remember, you are not just yourself, you are the hope of our entire Xia Kingdom. Old Qin and I can both be in trouble, but you cannot. You are the ladder for our Xia Kingdom to reach the top."

Although Elder Qin was still somewhat unwilling, Elder Long had already made his decision, so he could only reluctantly agree.

The three then had another discussion.

Upon hearing that Zhou Weiguo wanted to take out the technical data and some weapons first, Old Long's eyes lit up. After making a phone call, he drove away from Haizi with Zhou Weiguo.

To Zhou Weiguo's surprise, the drive took more than two hours, until the vehicle traveled for another ten minutes or so in a tunnel before finally arriving at its destination.

Zhou Weiguo got out of the car with a curious look on his face, looked into the dark distance, and then looked at Elder Long and Elder Qin beside him with a puzzled expression.

Elder Long did not speak, but simply gave a few instructions to the people next to him.

Accompanied by a "pop pop pop" sound, beams of light slowly appeared in the darkness in the distance.

When all the darkness was illuminated, Zhou Weiguo subconsciously gasped.

P.S.: Please urge me to update more and give me good reviews. Thank you!
