Traveling between the 70s and the modern world

Chapter 473 Desire

Just as they were scolded by Mr. Gu, the chief walked in from outside. They stood up and greeted him. The chief waved his hand.

"Everyone sit down."

He walked straight to the first seat and sat down.

"Old Gu is right. We are a great country like China. We can't rely on a little girl for everything. If other countries knew about this, we might never be able to hold our heads up again in the world."

The leader's words made everyone else have no objections.

"Old Gu, is this girl the one who grows vegetables?"

The chief suddenly asked Mr. Gu about this matter. The vegetables he eats daily are all got from there. In order to avoid accidents, many people don’t know about it.

When Mr. Gu heard the chief's question, he smiled and said:

"Yes, that's her. This girl not only grows delicious vegetables, but also cooks even better food. The fruits in her orchard are also more delicious than those outside. She can do everything well."

"That's right. When she returns home after completing her studies, bring her here so I can see her."

Before the chief finished speaking, the people present looked at the old man with more subtle eyes.

The future granddaughter-in-law of the Gu family has caught the eye of the chief even before she graduated or was assigned a job.

How could her future development be bad? Even after graduation, her job would probably be arranged in advance.

Some people are wondering if there are grandchildren of the right age at home, and whether they can try to steal the girl from the grandson of the old Gu family. I heard that he is engaged, but engagement is not marriage, so it will not affect anything.

Gu Yizhou, who was on a mission at this moment, sneezed several times. He looked at someone not far away in confusion, thinking that Lin Qingyan was thinking about him, but he didn't know that someone was trying to poach him.

"Boss, what's wrong? Have they come out?" The people around Gu Yizhou saw him staring into the distance and thought that the person they were following had come out.

"No, you guys continue to watch here, I'll go to the other side to take a look." Gu Yizhou collected his thoughts and turned to walk to the other side.

Half a year later, Lin Qingyan had completed her studies at Yale University and was now auditing courses in other majors.

After class, Lin Qingyan packed up her things, put them in her backpack, walked out, and saw John who was already waiting.

"Lin, I'm here!"

John also saw Lin Qingyan coming out, and waved his hand with a sunny face.

"John, why are you here? Didn't you go to the branch office recently?"

Lin Qingyan looked at John in surprise. John had already graduated and was now officially working in the family business. His uncle had directly arranged a branch company for him to practice.

"Lin, don't you miss me?" John looked at Lin Qingyan with an exaggerated and resentful expression.

Lin Qingyan looked at him dangerously, and John was frightened by her gaze. He had been in contact with Lin Qingyan for a long time and knew that Lin Qingyan was not as harmless as she seemed.

He quickly said in a serious tone, "Lin, I came here for a serious matter. My uncle's pharmaceutical company has developed a drug that is said to be able to resist aging. All of us in the branch office have to come here for a meeting."

"So you finished the meeting?"

"Yes, Lin, I haven't eaten your cooking for a long time. I wonder if I will have the honor to eat your cooking today?"

John looked at her with a flattering smile, not at all the bad boy feeling he had when he first met her.

Lin Qingyan also smiled when she saw his expression. She now truly regarded John as a friend.

"Come on, I just bought a lot of food yesterday and put it in the refrigerator. You are in for a treat."

After John finished eating at Lin Qingyan's place, he leaned back in his chair and said to Lin Qingyan:

"Lin, can you still buy the ginseng you gave my uncle last time?"

"Why? Your uncle wants ginseng?"

John nodded, then shook his head.

"My uncle wants to buy ginseng from you. I don't know why, but I think it may be related to the company's new product.

Because I heard the person in charge of the new product talking to my uncle about ginseng, and then my uncle asked me to ask you if you had any ginseng to sell to him. "

Lin Qingyan lowered her head to clean up the dishes on the table. She did not answer the question directly. After she finished cleaning up, she said to John:

"John, you should know how precious ginseng that is old enough is. It is something that cannot be bought even with money."

"Lin, don't worry, I will refuse my uncle for you."

"I'll ask my family about it, and if I can find it, I'll get it for you.

John, your uncle is really amazing. He can even develop anti-aging drugs."

Lin Qingyan sincerely admired that the technology of this era can already extract the active molecules in ginseng.

The gap between China and here is too big. Currently, the top technology in China is unable to extract ingredients from vegetables and utilize them.

When John mentioned his uncle, he couldn't help but praise him with admiring eyes.

"My uncle is the person I admire most. There is nothing he can't do.

But the technical director of this pharmaceutical company is also very capable. He graduated from our school and was hired by my uncle at a high price."

Lin Qingyan listened to his sigh and pondered.

After John left, Lin Qingyan appeared in modern Country M. Since she came to Country M, she often came here to learn about the information of this era.

Lin Qingyan walked into Starbucks and ordered a cup of coffee. She took out her newly bought latest model of mobile phone and searched for information about pharmaceutical companies on the Internet.

The more I look at it, the more silent I become. Over the past few decades, none of the top pharmaceutical companies in the world are from China.

Are Chinese people less intelligent than them? No.

Is it possible that China, with a 5,000-year-old culture, has not produced a few Nobel Prize winners?

No, there have been Chinese Nobel Prize winners in recent years, but no Chinese.

Lin Qingyan couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

Looking at the global development in the next few decades, the root cause of all this is the backwardness of the country and technology.

There is also the loss of talent. Among the top talents cultivated in the country over the past few decades, how many have returned to serve the motherland?

Lin Qingyan knew that there were many reasons for all this, but she wanted to try her best to change the situation.

Especially when I saw on my mobile phone how the virus swept the world in the past few years, I realized how fragile human beings were. The Chinese people were once again closed for a few years, and the impact was also huge.

Lin Qingyan was very silent. She drank the coffee in her hand and found it very bitter.

When she saw the speculation that future wars would be biological wars, Lin Qingyan made a decision in her heart.

She decided to apply for early graduation and then apply to other schools. She wanted to study biology again.

But before that, she had to return to her country. After all, her overseas expenses were paid by the country, and she needed to give an explanation to the country first and implement the new plan after getting permission.

At this moment, Lin Qingyan didn't know what this decision had changed and what impact it would have.

What she didn't know was that at this moment in a small town in Country M, Gu Yizhou was protecting someone and hiding in a basement.
