Siheyuan: My Northeastern Farmhouse

Chapter 194 Saint’s Halo
  Damn it! How does a person like a fat old man grow his brain? How can so much knowledge be divided into categories and yet be stewed in one pot!
  Gu Weijun felt that his eight-core brain was almost running out. The cold wind blew a few snowflakes and stuck them on Gu Weijun's forehead, cooling his brain slightly. He suddenly remembered that it was already one o'clock in the morning. It’s already Monday.

Gu Weijun tightened his collar, went on patrol first, and then quickly went to the space to sleep! I'm still growing! Be sure to get enough sleep!

The following week was busy and fulfilling again. On Saturday afternoon, Gu Weijun returned to his dormitory to pack his things and prepare to go to the steel rolling mill to continue being beaten. Before going out, he was reminded by Wang Xuewen, "Gu Weijun, the final exam is next Monday. Are you ready?" ?”

"Oh, ah! Is the final exam next Monday?" Gu Weijun looked at the calendar and said, next Monday is January 1th, which is the New Year!

Gu Weijun was slightly in a daze, time passed so slowly!
  However, Gu Weijun couldn't care less about his sorrow for the time being. There were even sadder things waiting for him!
  Qian Weichang's beatings always caught him off guard! There are more things involved in the two-stroke engine. Gu Weijun inevitably let go of Director Li, but now his status is not that important, so he can just handle it appropriately!
  Especially men of Director Li's age know even more how precious Double Whip Liquor is! This old boy has a lot of good cigarettes and good wines, and his sincerity represents the weight of Double Whip Liquor. If he doesn’t shave it off properly, how can he be worthy of the effect of Double Whip Liquor! Who knows who uses it!

So Gu Weijun did not go to Director Li's house on Sunday morning, but once again asked Zhao Chenggang and Yang Yu to go out of the city to transport meat. If the four pigs that he had promised to supply to the security department were not transported back, there was no guarantee that no one in the security department would complain. Hatred!
  Hey, it’s so difficult to win people’s hearts! However, in order for the security department to continue to be under his control or influence after the wind rose, Gu Weijun had no choice but to aggrieve himself.

On the way back to the city, Gu Weijun slumped in his seat and finally remembered to ask Xiaoyu about the situation in the Chemistry Laboratory of Peking University: "Xiaoyu, how is the progress of Mrs. Li's drug research? Has it been a while since you called me over?"

Xiao Yu scratched her head, "It should be soon! Professor Xu has tested about 20 kinds of synthetic chemicals on mice! I heard from Ling Mei that there is a chemical structure that shows antagonistic effects! It's just that the side effects seem to be relatively large, and there are more advanced optimization!"

"F*ck!" Gu Weijun was shocked to the ground. It's not that I'm uneducated, but I can take the world by saying "f*ck!" Are the scientists in our country too perverted?
  You must know that it took the UK almost 10 years of research to develop the first-generation H2 receptor antagonist - cimetidine. After several more years of toxic resistance experiments, it took 14 years of research and development before it entered clinical use! And another kind of ranitidine is almost 20 years old!
  Although I intervened and drew a few equations, it was faster than expected, right? It has only been studied for more than two months. Gu Weijun really doesn’t know what to say. At this rate, cimetidine will be ready for clinical trials this year, right?
  Cimetidine has appeared, and ranitidine is not far away!
  These two stomach medicines are powerful killers. In the early 80s, the sales worldwide were more than 10 billion US dollars a year! It's the mid-60s now. Let's make a compromise. It's still selling tens of millions to 1 million US dollars a year!
  Before the advent of omeprazole, cimetidine and ranitidine were the only two good medicines for gastric diseases! Does this count as helping the country to conquer capitalist countries?

Gu Weijun touched the back of his head. He was considered a saint, right? Are there one or two circles of light at the back of your head?

But I also thought that the wind was about to start, and I didn’t know if Mrs. Li could avoid suffering with this merit. Thinking of the situation of Niu Jingyi and others who synthesized artificial insulin, the situation is still not optimistic and they still have a long way to go!

But if it can be successfully commercialized and achieve sufficient foreign trade achievements, will it be more valued by the country? So that this research result really becomes a talisman?
  Gu Weijun smiled mockingly to himself, he was blocking the car with his arms!

"Hey, who is Ling Mei?" Gu Weijun suddenly discovered something. But he was in a low mood and didn't bother to ask!

Fortunately, Director Li's generous and timely intervention soothed Gu Weijun's heart, and he exchanged four strips of Chinese and a box of Maotai for half a catty of Double Whip Liquor! Well, it's okay, this person can still be dealt with.

Monday's final exam is just a formality for Gu Weijun now. The only worry is that he has to copy the questions from the blackboard, what a waste of time!

After three days of exams, it was winter vacation. What Gu Weijun didn't expect was that he was even busier than during class? Since he had a car to travel, Gu, the coachman, and Weijun had to help the students buy tickets to return home and deliver them to the train station.

After delivering the last classmate on the 29th, Gu Weijun will send Spring Festival greetings to his relatives and friends again: meat! It’s already the 27th of the twelfth lunar month, and there are still two days until New Year’s Eve!
  Moreover, you cannot ask other butchers to slaughter the meat you give to your relatives and friends. The impact will be too great! Especially this year, there are many more people who want to send meat. Professors and teachers such as Li Youshan, Wu Zhonghua, and Li Jixiang from Tsinghua University should also express their gratitude, right? And the relationship between Wu Zizhen, president of the Simin Martial Arts Club, and Bai Yang also needs to be maintained, right?

Even if it's 5 pounds of meat for a family, it still costs more than 100 pounds. What's more, with Section Chief Gu's reputation, the price starts at 10 pounds! Half and half pigs and half sheep!
  Good guy, he damn well exhausted Gu, the butcher, and the Wei army. He killed two pigs and four sheep in the space. The key is that he had to burn the fire to remove the hair and process the internal organs. What a smell. ! The fussy Gu Weijun had no appetite for two days in a row!
  The shocked mother Gu thought her eldest son was sick? He resolutely refused to admit that it was his cooking skills that were not good enough! Fortunately, Gu Weijun can still drink porridge!
  The timing was also coincidental, and New Year's Eve arrived on February 2st in the blink of an eye. At Gu Weijun's request in advance, several families, including Aunt Wang's family, celebrated the New Year together on Beichizi Street!
  Gu Weijun brought out meat, including pigs, sheep, deer, chickens, ducks, and geese. Others brought out wine, including Maotai, Fenjiu, and Wuliangye!
  That is to say, Gu Weijun's house is the master room of this courtyard. The main room is large enough, and all kinds of dishes are served to fill two large tables! Everyone had a festive look on their faces. They pulled down the cotton curtains and saw the red fire burning in the room, as well as the steaming food and wine. Everyone's face was rosy and they were drunk before they drank!

"Thank you Chairman Mao for bringing us a wonderful life!" Aunt Wang Yizhi took the lead in raising a toast!
  "Thank you Chairman Mao!"

Gu Weijun smiled and watched his family members constantly thinking about their longing for a better life in the future, and couldn't help but get drunk!
  This kind of peaceful and joyful New Year’s Eve dinner will last for another year at most, and it is very likely that this year will be the last time!

Even if there is a Spring Festival next year, we must be more careful. No matter meat or other supplies, we have to stop!
  After New Year's Day, the People's Daily published very few articles, and I haven't written another article for a long time. Of course, if I write, I may not be able to get it published.

I sincerely wish all book lovers around the world peace and happiness!

After half-drinking, Gu Weijun carried several lunch boxes of hot dumplings, several lunch boxes of meat and vegetables, and two bottles of wine! I drove to Tsinghua University in a daze.

None of the classmates in the dormitory who had a long way to go went home. The journey alone took 5 or 6 days, and the round trip took 10 days. It was a waste of money and time.

The school's dining hall also organized dumpling making for students who could not return home, but Gu Weijun also had to do his part as a classmate.

"Wow, so much meat!"

"Wow, the dumplings are made of pure meat!"

Su Jianzhong, the big brother from Fujian, was shocked when he opened his lunch box! Then he immediately stopped the chopsticks of other students and said seriously to Gu Weijun: "Gu Weijun, you brought us all the meat, what do you eat at home?"

"Don't worry, our family is a dual-income family, and we have relatives to help. I have a god-sister from the countryside in the capital, and she has unplanned meat!"

"Oh! Fuck sister!"

"Yeah, fuck sister!"

After a while, Wang Xuewen, Wu Fengling, Li Zhongming and other classmates who lived in Beijing also came to the dormitory with wine and food to celebrate the 1965 Spring Festival together!

Gu Weijun fell asleep listening to the sound of firecrackers on campus, and his heart was racing. 1964 has passed, and I miss it very much!
