Chapter 106 The Ambition of Human Evolution

Mr. Zhao, Chen Huaidong, Ye Nantian and their group had a working lunch in the company cafeteria at noon.

"Dean Li, it seems I will have to come to your place for meals more often if I have the chance in the future."

Before leaving, Chen Huaidong held Li Tang's hand, smiling and joking in a light-hearted manner.

The land for the construction of the Future Science and Technology Research Institute’s headquarters has been finalized, and Li Tang also promised to come up with a design plan as soon as possible.

When both parties see the bright prospects, they can naturally play happily together.

After seeing off Chen Huaidong, Zhao Lao and Ye Nantian left immediately, but left a message before leaving:
"Get ready. I'll come talk to you in the evening."

After everyone left, Li Tang turned around and walked back thoughtfully.

When Mr. Zhao left the message, his expression was somewhat solemn. It seemed that what he was discussing with him was not a trivial matter.

Judging from the time, Predator No. 1 should have arrived near Gat Island and was hovering over it conducting some tests.

Why choose this place as a destination for long flights?

Because this place has become the most important fulcrum of the second island chain chosen by the world's number one military power, even some of the personnel and equipment originally in hand have begun to be transferred here on a large scale.

For example, the Aifu 22 we saw early this morning. Originally, they deployed 12 aircraft in Canada, but this year, the first batch of four has been withdrawn.

It is said that the remaining eight aircraft will be withdrawn later.

Perhaps it is because the eight planes photographed in the morning have all left the hangar and are ready to fly, maybe they will withdraw to the mainland today.

Is this a sign of weakness?

Of course not. More people believe that this is the corner tower actually preparing for war.

Only when you retract your fist will it be more powerful when you punch out.

After all, the first island chain is already completely under our superior sea and air forces, as well as long-range firepower network. Even the world's number one has to avoid its edge!

Since Li Tang intends to make the "Predator" one of the main war machines in the future, it is natural to test its dominance over the second island chain.

What's more, Li Tang also hopes to make the [Predator] known to the world, so as to test whether it will have an impact on dreams?
Of course we have to keep doing things!
Li Tang was walking and thinking when he suddenly heard someone seemed to be talking to him.

"...Tangtang? It's really you..."

Li Tang raised his head and saw the man in front of him. He was about fifty years old, with a sturdy build. His face was full of traces of time, but his eyes were bright.

Seeing the puzzled expression on Li Tang's face, the man immediately reacted, "Look at me, I should call you Dean Li..."

"Uncle Meng, why are you here?"

The moment the old man spoke again, Li Tang already remembered who the person in front of him was.

This is Su Yafei's father, Su Daomeng, an old carpenter with superb craftsmanship who specializes in antique buildings.

When he came to Shangdu as a contractor, he established his own empire in the construction industry in Shangdu with his admirable reputation for quality.

The name of Centennial Workshop Construction Co., Ltd. was given by Li Tang's father, which is quite ambitious.

However, the industry has been in recession in the past two years and I almost became the one to go bankrupt.

Su Yafei's mother Lin Xi and Su Daomeng started a business together. At the beginning of the year, their creditors came to their door and her younger brother encountered a personal crisis on an overseas project.

He suffered a sudden cerebral hemorrhage due to anxiety and anger, but fortunately he was rescued in time.

Although he had difficulty walking, he managed to save his life.

This is also the fundamental reason why Su Yafei decided to return to China.

Su Dao suffered a blow from this and had originally planned to close the company.

However, as Li Tang Company was developing rapidly, Cai Xiaosong made large-scale acquisitions and carried out batch factory renovation projects.

As the saying goes, good things should be kept within the family. Cai Xiaosong simply took over the Centennial Workshop under Zehua Capital and used his own construction company to undertake the renovation project, which gave him more peace of mind.

Li Tang was happy to see this happen, but he was busy with scientific research and had not had time to meet Su Daomeng.

Thinking back, the last time we met was when Li Tang was 13 years old and was admitted to the junior class of USTC, and we held a teacher-apprentice banquet to celebrate.

We met again after not seeing each other for twelve years. I didn't expect that Lao Su had changed so much.

Fortunately, although he looks much older, he still has the energy and spirit of his youth.

"Oh, we have to finish the work in Building F today. I'll come over to keep an eye on it. Dean Li..."

"Uncle Meng, please don't be so formal. Just call me Tang Tang like we did when we were little."

"That won't do. Etiquette cannot be abolished. Besides, my Yafei is also working under you. She doesn't call you boss, but she is already taking advantage of our old relationship."

Li Tang was somewhat helpless. Su Daomeng was an old-school craftsman, and in some aspects he was somewhat similar to his grandfather. Back then, the two of them did have a lot to talk about on the topic of ancient buildings.

"Uncle Meng, what are you doing?"

Looking at the two workers led by Su Daomeng, they were smashing a pile of white substance, but after a few hits, the white substance did not change at all.

Su Daomeng explained, "These are the waste materials that were cleared out by the Materials Institute last night. They asked us to transport them away today, but somehow they have become stuck together and even an iron pickaxe cannot pry them apart."

Li Tang suddenly became curious. He reached out to a worker and asked for a pickaxe, then used it to chisel at the white substance.

With a "clang" sound, the collision of the two actually made a sound of metal and stone.

"Boss, this thing can't be chiseled at all. We have been trying for a long time."

Li Tang put down the pickaxe and reached out to touch the white substance. Although it was a bit rough, it was very hard when pressed.

I reached out and knocked on it, and it felt like steel.

"President Li, please go ahead and do your work. I'll get a Hundred Workers robot here later. It will definitely be able to take away these waste materials." Li Tang stood up and looked at Su Daomeng. "Uncle Meng, are you used to using Hundred Workers robots when doing engineering work?"

"You're so used to it! I'm not one to follow fashion, but your robot can do the work just as well as the masters I trained. It seems that we, the older generation, are really going to be eliminated."

Li Tang smiled and said, "That's not necessarily true. I'll have someone send you some equipment someday to try out and see if you can cooperate with the [Hundred Workers] robots and work together with them."

"Really? That's a nice touch."

"Uncle Su, don't touch this pile of white material for now. I'll call the people from the Materials Institute. I'm afraid they've thrown away the good stuff as waste!"

"Oh, fine then, call someone quickly, I'll watch here!"

Li Tang took out his phone and called Chen Xue.

"Dean, the leader has left?"

“Ask which project team, yesterday when the waste was cleared out a pile of white material, it was dumped next to the garbage dump between Building E and Building F.

You bring them down here and find a way to study it carefully. How did these materials solidify into such a hard state overnight? "

"Ah? That's the case. Don't worry, I'll take care of it right away."

After hanging up the phone, Li Tang took another look at the white substance.

I chatted with Su Daomeng about family matters, asked about Aunt Lin Xi's health, and listened to Su Daomeng's nagging about his daughter.

I said goodbye to him and walked towards the temporary hangar.

The cell phone suddenly rang, and I took it out and saw, "Su Yafei".

"Where are you now? I went to your office just now, but I didn't see you. Have the leaders not left yet?"

"I'm over here in Building F. I was just chatting with your dad."

"How did you two meet? What did you talk about?"

"Let's talk about auntie's body and you too!"

"What are you talking about?"

Su Yafei's voice became noticeably unsteady.

Li Tang thought about Su Daomeng's nagging just now and blurted out: "Why don't you find a boyfriend after chatting..."

"Are you two grown men bored?"

Su Yafei quickly changed the subject, "Come to my lab right away, I have a new discovery!"

Li Tang was attracted by her words and said, "I'll be there right away."

A few minutes later, in the Biological Laboratory on the 12th floor of Building B.

"I extracted an active biological enzyme from your blood, which can greatly increase the cell activity of mice. The key is that I detected that its cell telomeres were lengthened!"

In order to study his own body changes, Li Tang also began to include biology books as bedtime reading.

Li Tang knew something about cell telomeres.

This thing is said to be related to human life span. Simply put, cell telomeres determine cell activity, or the number of times a cell divides.

Long cell telomeres indicate that the cells divide many times and are active, thus having a long lifespan.

"You mean, a biological enzyme extracted from my blood can lengthen the telomeres of mice? True or false?"

"Of course it's true. I won't joke with you about this kind of thing."

"Then I will become Tang Monk?"

Su Yafei was stunned and couldn't help laughing, "It seems that this can really be believed. Using your blood may be able to prolong people's lifespan."

"Don't laugh. Who else knows about this besides you?"

This is obviously a very important matter. If subsequent experiments further prove that the life span of mice can be extended, and experiments on other animals and even humans also prove that this biological enzyme is effective.

It can be said that the dawn of human evolution has appeared.

After all, if life expectancy can be extended, many things will change dramatically.

Even though Li Tang is still young, he also has some ambition to live a long life.

Su Yafei's smile faded, "Don't worry, I know what I am doing, and no one knows about this except me."

Li Tang thought about it and said, "From now on, only you can test any of my biomass samples, and don't let others get involved.

I will equip your laboratory with a new robot assistant, and from now on, only you will be able to conduct my research."

"You trust me that much?"

"What's the relationship between us? If I don't trust you, who should I trust?"

Su Yafei found that he spoke very naturally, and her heart moved slightly. She turned around and pretended to look at the instrument.

But he said, "We are just a boss and subordinate relationship."

"How could it be so ordinary? We are childhood friends, and you and my sister are good friends. Our two families know each other very well, and our relationship is very close."

Su Yafei was left in a state of confusion by what Li Tang said.

Then he changed the subject and said, "By the way, you gave a lecture to several R&D team members a while ago, and you held a discussion at Fudu University the other day. I set up instruments and collected some data."

"How's it going? Did you find anything?"
