Lin Ruofu was reluctant to say deeply, and it was inconvenient for Zhou Liwen to ask, but he could still guess one or two about the general situation.

Maybe it was because he said the sullenness in his heart, Lin Ruofu's mood was much better than before, seeing that the time was not early, Zhou Liwen got up to say goodbye, and quietly gave Lin Yaxuan a look when he left, so that she didn't have to go downstairs, and stayed at home to take care of her father-in-law.

Leaving Lin Yaxuan's home, Zhou Liwen's ears somehow always recalled what Lin Ruofu said, he thought about it and made a decision, preparing to go to the Shanghai Academy of Sciences the next day.

Early the next morning, Zhou Liwen rushed to the Shanghai Academy of Sciences after dealing with himself. The Academy of Sciences is located in a corner of the city of Shanghai, where it is quiet, surrounded by more than 100 years of old buildings, tall sycamores stand on both sides of the street, it is the early spring, the new branches are just teeth, such as the autumn and summer season, here is as beautiful as the scenery in the oil painting.

The gate of the Shanghai Academy of Sciences is 3o meters away from the intersection, although the situation of the Academy of Sciences is day by day over the years, but its status and administrative level in the national research institutions are still placed here, although there is no armed police standing guard with loaded guns and ammunition at the door, but this door is still not very easy to enter.

At the doorman, he said his intention, and the old man's class vigilance was extremely high, not only carefully inquired about Zhou Liwen's personal situation, but also asked him to go to the ID card to look left and right, and finally picked up the phone and dialed a number.

"Xiaowen, didn't you say that you went back to Huacheng? Why did you run my unit here? About ten minutes later, Lin Ruofu came to the doorman, looking very surprised.

"The unit temporarily changed my flight because of something, and I happened to be nearby just now, so I came to see you."

Lin Ruofu didn't think much about it, nodded and turned to the old man of the doorman and said, "Old Wang, this is my son-in-law." ”

"Okay, it's good not to be an outsider." Master Wang saw that Zhou Liwen was indeed Lin Ruofu's family, and the face that had been holding it finally showed a smile, and nodded: "Director Lin, sign the guest list and you can go in." ”

"Thank you, Lao Wang!" Lin Ruofu took the guest list handed by Master Wang and signed it, then tore off the copy of the list and handed it to Zhou Liwen, then said hello to Master Wang and took Zhou Liwen inside.

"Don't lose this order, and give it to Master Wang when I go out."

"You're really strict enough." Zhou Liwen put the deputy list in his pocket and couldn't help but sigh.

"Hey, what kind of strictness is this, I think I couldn't get in even the secretary of the municipal party committee without the pass of my superiors. Where is it like now, that is, to make a form of self-comfort...... Lin Ruofu shook his head and sighed, according to what he said, this is still the minimum system that the doorman's old master Wang demanded with all his might, if it weren't for his insistence, I'm afraid that anyone at the gate of the Academy of Sciences would be able to enter casually.

"Old Master Wang, ...... he?"

"He was the former head of security at the Academy of Sciences, and he volunteered to come back to work as a concierge after his retirement."

Zhou Liwen suddenly realized and nodded in understanding.

The Academy of Sciences covers a large area, from the gate to the main building is the size of a football field, the whole main building is a hundred years ago, and the materials used at that time are all large granite stones, after so many years of wind and rain still make people feel that its design is exquisite and majestic.

The main building has five floors, divided into east and west wings, where many scientists of the new China were born and made indelible contributions to national scientific research. Today, when the wind blows the leaves across the yellow lawn, the building looks depressed.

Lin Ruofu's office was in the east wing of the building, and he walked down the stairs to the door, and he led Zhou Liwen to the third floor. When going upstairs, Zhou Liwen noticed the elevator on the side of the stairs, which is an old elevator that can only be seen in old movies, that is, the kind of old-fashioned elevator that uses people to pull the door by hand, and now this elevator is rusty, I don't know how many years it has not been used. Even the wooden stairs up the stairs creak when you step on them.

Lin Ruofu's office is very large, but the facilities inside are not very good. They are all old guys who have been used for decades, and stepping into it is like traveling through time and space to the history of the year, and only the air conditioner against the wall makes people feel the breath of the current era.

"Water or tea?" After entering the door, Lin Ruofu asked.

"No need Dad, I'll just stop by and sit down, don't be so troublesome."

"It's okay, I just need some water." Lin Ruofu smiled and pointed to the sand on the side, motioned for him to sit, and walked straight to the other side and picked up the hot water bottle.

As soon as he started, Lin Ruofu frowned slightly, because the water bottle was empty.

"Xiaowen, you sit down for a while, I'll go downstairs and get some water."

"I'll do it." Zhou Liwen hurriedly stood up.

"I'll go, you don't know the way."

"What's this, you won't show me. I'll come here, you can rest here. Zhou Liwen couldn't help but pick up the hot water bottle, then asked the location of the boiler room, and then went downstairs with it.

When I got to the first floor, I looked around in the direction pointed out by Lin Ruofu, and finally found the boiler room in the corner. After making hot water, Zhou Liwen turned around and left, returning the same way.

Who would have thought that this corridor is the same as a labyrinth, obviously Zhou Liwen remembered that when he came, he went directly through a corridor and turned a few corners, but when he walked back, he went up the stairs to the third floor and felt that it was wrong, because the environment in the corridor was a little different from just now.

Stunned, Zhou Liwen immediately realized that he had gone to the wrong corridor, and this was not the east wing where Lin Ruofu's office was located, but the west wing. It's strange that the two stairs on the first floor have exactly the same pattern, and Zhou Liwen came for the first time, so he walked directly from the stairs in the upper west wing without paying attention when he walked back.

Just as Zhou Liwen smiled self-deprecatingly, shook his head and turned around to go downstairs, there was a noise not far away, which made him stop.

"50,000? 50,000 you are calling Hanako! You don't know how much money this project will cost! What can 50,000 do? You said! What can 50,000 do? An angry voice came from the office next door, the door was open, and the voice echoed in the empty hallway with great clarity.

"Director Deng! Old Deng! Grandpa Deng ......! Another voice seemed to plead, "Can't I call you grandpa?" Do you think I'm here to open a bank? Don't you know the situation in the hospital, how much money is allocated by the superiors in a year? 1oo million! It's only 1oo thousand! The 1oo also includes the salaries, bonuses, and benefits of all the personnel in the hospital, plus water, electricity, coal, office and other expenses, and I have to take out some money from here to maintain everyone's needs. That's right, your Director Deng University applied for a research grant of 7o yuan, but only 120,000 yuan was approved in the end, but this 120,000 yuan can't be all given to you alone, right? ”

"I don't care! It's okay to approve 120,000, give me the 120,000 first! ”

"Impossible!" Another voice categorically refused: "It's already good to give you 50,000, and there are important arrangements in the other money courtyard." ”

"What is more important than my research?" Director Deng slapped the table and roared.

"Lao Lin's research room can't even afford to buy guinea pigs now, so I have to keep some for him, right? And Lao Zhang's research topic has reached a critical juncture, and the material report he needs has been working for half a year, so I have to help him solve it first, right? There are also Lao Kang and Lao Bai's ...... Everyone is engaged in scientific research, who is not waiting for the rice to be cooked? And you see, this is the report of the General Affairs Office, we still owe the power supply bureau half a year's electricity bill, this is not counting the water and gas bills, this will not be solved when the power supply bureau pulls electricity, how can everyone work? ”

"But...... That's 50,000 is too little! Director Deng was silent for a while.

"Lao Deng, Director Deng, insist on persevering, overcome the difficulties first, something is better than nothing, or you first engage in theoretical research, make the theory solid, and then carry out substantive operations? You can rest assured! I will find a way to continue to apply to my superiors, I keep your business in mind, as long as the next batch of funds arrives, I will be the first to consider you, okay? ”

(I have to go to the hospital tomorrow, continue to ask for tickets, collect and reward!)
