Suburbs, Tea Tree Manor

Li Mo didn't know that there was such a place in Yanjiao, a whole row of single-family villas, the roadside was lined with trees and flowers were in full bloom.

"Where is this?" He turned his head and asked Elder Wang who was resting with his eyes closed.

"My house." Elder Wang closed his eyes tightly.

Li Mo: "."

There is such a retirement resort, why live in a remote village, I really don't understand.

But now is not the time to ask this question.

Brother Hai could only sit in the co-pilot due to an arm injury, with a look of sadness on his face.

At the end of the road is a garden-style villa. The yard surrounded by wooden fences is larger than the other yards we just passed by.

The car stopped gently.

Haige got out of the car first and opened the door.

Wang Lao took a few steps to the fence door, hesitated for a while, finally sighed, and gently pushed the door open.

Entering the living room, there are marble tiles, solid wood simple sofas, and gray rock with kung fu tea tables. Li Mo found that although the place is extremely clean, it seems to lack some fireworks, as if it has been idle for a long time.

Elder Wang seemed to have some resistance to this, sat down on the sofa, and said nothing again. On the contrary, Brother Hai hung his injured arm and began to prepare the tea set. While he was walking into the kitchen to boil water, Li Mo also followed.

The kitchen utensils are also complete, the pots, pans and spoons, and the smoking stove are spotless.

"Where is this house?" He asked while helping Brother Hai wash the water glass.

Brother Hai shook his head, "Old Wang prepared this for his son, don't ask too much."

It sounds like there is a story in it, and Li Mo knows it by heart.

"Old Wang, it is a blessing for us to be able to drink your tea today."

Li Mo returned to the living room and found that several leaders of Yanda University had arrived, and a middle-aged man with a bald head was talking.

"Hello leaders, Yunwu Tea is here." He greeted and arranged the tea utensils neatly on the tea table.

Several leaders only thought that he was someone close to Mr. Wang, and they all nodded their heads. It was the vice-principal, Zhou Feng, who had sharp eyes: "Isn't this Li Mo? Why are you here?"

Li Mo replied while pouring tea: "Mr. Wang is my old mentor. If there is nothing, I will come to help."

The leaders were stunned, they knew the identity of Mr. Wang best, but they didn't expect Yanda, a talented young man, to have anything to do with him.

After making tea, Li Mo didn't turn around and leave. Instead, he moved a chair and sat beside him.

The leaders exchanged glances tacitly. If they, the elites in the social field, can't understand the meaning, then they won't be able to get along with the school's senior management.

"Drink tea." Wang Lao held up a cup of tea and signaled.

The leaders brought tea.

"Sweet, really fragrant. This tea smells extraordinary. It tastes bitter before it tastes sweet, leaving a fragrance on your lips and teeth. Could it be that it was picked from the mother tree on Laolong Mountain?" A chubby vice-principal exclaimed. .

"Tea does not pay attention to origin, as long as it tastes good, it is good tea." Elder Wang said slowly.

"That's right, Mr. Wang, you are a master tea taster. If you approve, it must be a good tea." A vice principal wearing glasses said with a smile.

Wang Lao put the teacup on the table and looked around, "If the tea is good, it is good, and if it is bad, it is bad. This is determined by the tea itself and has nothing to do with people."

"At work, your attitude is unacceptable."

The vice-principal was sweating on his forehead and nodded repeatedly, "What Mr. Wang taught is that the students should remember."

The vice-principal who had been taught a lesson didn't show a trace of sadness on his face. Instead, his face was flushed, as if it was an extremely honorable thing to be criticized by Mr. Wang. He went on to say: "Student Li Mo is really lucky. Mr. Wang is an old man in our scientific research field. Learning from Mr. Wang will benefit you a lot."

Li Mo nodded, "The teacher's academic attitude is really worth learning from me."

"That's right, thinking back to when Wang Lao and the others braved the low temperature of more than minus 20 degrees in the desert to carry out experiments, that kind of spirit is always worth learning." A vice principal answered.

"Without the hard work of Mr. Wang and the others back then, we wouldn't be where we are now."

Faced with such "flattery", Mr. Wang couldn't deny it, as if he was tired, he closed his eyes and leaned on the sofa.

Everyone started chatting sentence by sentence, from tea to satellites, from small vendors to overseas trade, from big Internet companies pushing community group buying, to the insecurity of imported cold chains. But no one mentioned the purpose of this visit, as if the tea party was just for chatting.

Li Mo listened quietly at the side, he felt that he had to admire the patience of these leaders.

Finally, Mr. Wang who "had had enough sleep" opened his eyes, "Okay, let's stop here today. You all have official duties, so I won't stay any longer."

The leaders stood up and said goodbye.

The principal of Yanda turned around at this moment, and said with a smile to Li Mo: "We happen to be having a school affairs meeting, so you should go and listen in, so that we can give the school some ideas."

Li Mo cast his eyes on Wang Lao.

Elder Wang nodded.

school meeting room

It was the first time for Li Mo to step into this meeting room. The decoration of the meeting room was very simple, and there were a few chairs beside the Zaomu conference table.

"Everyone welcomes Professor Li's participation, Chi Chi Chi Chi." The principal presided over the meeting.

The applause sounded, and Li Mo remembered that he still has the title of a visiting professor. Don't tell me, it sounds much better than a student.

"We are discussing the future development plan of Yanda University. I wonder if Professor Li has any opinions?" The principal sat in the chairman's seat and followed the guidance.

Li Mo looked straight at him, "I need to build a laboratory on the Yanda campus."

"laboratory?"

"Don't we Yanda have several laboratories?"

"Is this laboratory private or school?"

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the school leaders attending the meeting immediately talked about it. It is wishful thinking for a small professor to want to build a laboratory.

The principal suppressed his hand, and the discussion became much quieter. It can be seen that he is actually very authoritative.

"I don't know what kind of laboratory you want to build, and what aspects need the cooperation of the school." The principal has already made up his mind. A laboratory is not a play toy, and it requires a huge amount of capital investment. Although the young man in front of him is a student of Mr. Wang, if he doesn't have a suitable reason, that's not acceptable.

Li Mo thought for a while and said, "What I want to build is a private laboratory. I don't need the school's financial support. I will raise the funds myself."

Hearing this, all the leaders here breathed a sigh of relief, they were afraid that Professor Li would speak loudly in the name of Mr. Wang.

"However, I need the school to provide the laboratory space. Of course, I will pay the rent every year."

The principal set his sights on the vice principal in charge of infrastructure.

The vice-principal said: "Our school happens to have a newly handed-in building. I wonder how big an area you need?"
