Chapter 4: Looks and Talents

Coming out of Professor Alfred Young's office, Weiss felt that it was easy to get this way out, and his plan would not have too many technical obstacles. Now that you have come to the best polytechnic university in the Federation, there are actually many treasures to be excavated here, such as the School of Mechanical Engineering, the School of Metallurgy, the School of Engineering, the School of Chemical Engineering, and so on. You can expect the professors of the School of Geography and Geology to take students to carry out exploration and research on minerals, but it is difficult to expect the professors and students of the School of Geography and Geology to help you design a set of machines with great market value - they study the principles of machinery, and these theories can allow them to build traditional machines or improve existing machine designs. In addition to daily study, students from the School of Geography and Geology can go to various places to engage in exploration and survey, while students from the School of Mechanical Engineering usually go to the university-affiliated factories for practice, mainly to operate and maintain some common machines, which is regarded as work-study. In the field of mechanical technology with real commercial value, high-end patents are often in the hands of several manufacturing giants, Grumman Group only occupies a certain advantage in military manufacturing, in the field of civilian manufacturing, especially aviation, they are completely uncompetitive, can only act as a secondary parts supplier, is the role of beating the side drum and beating the gong.

For these reasons, Weiss did not expect to gain "instant combat power" at the Mechanical Academy, but planned to plan ahead in terms of technical talent. The School of Mechanical Engineering of Ulster University of Technology, the office building and the teaching building are next to each other, there is nothing unique in the appearance, and there is no eye-catching mechanical equipment, and the huge plaque in front of the office building reads the name of the School of Mechanical Engineering. Weiss swaggered in and asked, Mr. Dean was not there, and the professors were not interested in talking to him at all, so they walked around and had to leave in a huff.

Walking along the tree-lined paths of the campus, I was completely relaxed and enjoyed the scenery. As he was walking, a beautiful black-haired woman walked past him quickly, Weiss only glanced at her side face, although it did not have that shocking feeling, but it was also a beautiful woman with a pretty nose and cherry lips and skin as white as snow. From behind, she has a well-proportioned body, curvaceous curves, and a vigorous pace. At this time, Weiss couldn't help but think of Octavier, who was also so popular, but the heroic handsomeness of the man in front of him, who was obviously missing a soldier.

For beautiful things, whether it is people or scenery, people always want to see a few more glances, but after those life and death in the war, Weiss has a lot of light on many things in life, he did not speed up the pace, let alone the idea of going up to talk, but slowly walked his own way, and the pretty figure gradually disappeared and disappeared.

Fate is such a thing, no one can say clearly, clearly. At noon, Weiss found a random restaurant on campus, asked for a very ordinary set meal and hot tea, found an inconspicuous corner, and was eating, when he suddenly saw that beautiful figure appear in sight again, and took a seat at the table diagonally opposite. When her gaze inadvertently drifted to this side, Weiss showed full calmness, and slightly raised the corners of his mouth to make himself appear kinder.

The beautiful woman only glanced at him and said nothing. In Weiss's own eyes, after the baptism of war, Long Clumber Haysen's original appearance conditions were blessed by military bearing and steady quality, and he should have reached a slightly above average level among his peers, and he was still somewhat attractive to the opposite sex. It's just that there are a lot of sunny and handsome boys on this young campus, and at first glance, he is still the type that stands out from the crowd, and it is not surprising that he has not attracted the attention of the other party.

In the face of the delicious beauty, Weiss quietly savored it: this beauty had black hair like a waterfall, and her appearance was neither traditional Eastern nor typical Western, but had both Western-style angular three-dimensional contours, as well as Oriental skin tones and lip shapes. When she was thoughtful, her expression was really similar to Octavil, and it was also a feeling of being cold and unapproachable, but in comparison, Octavil's appearance was higher, and the hardcore temperament of a soldier was also something that ordinary people did not have. But this is a little inferior, so that the person in front of him is a beauty, which is different from Octavier's beautiful face that seems to be in the heavenly realm, and it has the atmosphere of fireworks in the world.

Some beauties feel like a glimpse, but they are unbearable, and some look ordinary at first glance, but the more you look at them, the more they taste. , and some are types that look good at first glance and are also durable after a long look. Weiss scanned the food on the plate, leisurely sipping hot tea with a normal taste, and enjoying the unique scenery in front of him. It didn't take long for another familiar face to come to the cafeteria - Professor Alfred Young, Dean of the School of Geography and Geology. He walked in somewhat aimlessly, as if he was still thinking about something. Many people greeted him, and he responded nonchalantly, until he saw this black-haired beauty, he instantly showed a smile that did not match his temperament, and walked straight to her table, and without saying hello, he sat down next to her with a big grin.

For Professor Yang, this beauty did not seem disgusted or happy, and her faint expression felt accustomed to it. Professor Yang said a few words to her with a smile on his face, and suddenly saw Weiss, and hurriedly beckoned: "Ha, Mr. Clumber-Haysen, what a coincidence, let's sit together!" ”

This was something Weiss couldn't ask for, and he sat down with his teacup. The black-haired beauty seemed to notice that Weiss had been observing her just now, and she seemed a little unhappy, but in front of Professor Yang, she didn't show this emotion too obviously.

The old man said to the beautiful woman, "This is just the case, didn't you say that you plan to take the students to go on a field exploration?" Now the opportunity has come for Mr. Clumber-Haysen to offer us a sponsorship and hope to establish a new and long-term relationship with us. ”

Hearing this, the black-haired beauty's attitude towards Weiss changed slightly, but instead of immediately showing a smile, she nodded politely: "Fortunately, Mr. Clumber-Haysen!" ”

The old man introduced Weiss: "This is my right-hand man and the youngest first-class professor in our School of Geography and Geology, Aisha Young. ”

When Weiss heard this name, he couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Huh? You ......"

The old man and the black-haired beauty exchanged glances with each other, such a tacit understanding, plus the surname between them, what else is there to ask?

"Well, it's hard to imagine that such a fairy-looking lady would delve into such a boring subject as geography and geology." As soon as Weiss finished speaking, he regretted it a little, because this kind of remark seemed to belittle the study of geography and geology. Sure enough, the brunette didn't like this kind of remarks, and she asked-for-tat, "Is there anything wrong with this?" Who said that geography and geology should only be studied by boys? ”

"It's me who is abrupt, actually, I just think geography and geology are not as interesting as history or art, and field surveys and explorations are very hard, so it may be easier for men to do it." Weiss hurriedly explained.

This is also true, the beauty did not resist him again, but snorted at the old man: "If you want to blame, blame him for cultivating my strong interest in geography and geology since childhood." Some things, imperceptibly for too many years, have become a habit. I was really not interested in getting involved in other disciplines. ”

"I see!" Weiss nodded in understanding.

Professor Alfred Young said to his daughter: "This Mr. Clumber Haysen, I have heard about him, he has been leading the local army and people against the enemy occupation during the period when Lorraine was occupied by the enemy, as if he had been captured by the enemy, and then escaped, and then led his troops back to Lorraine until the enemy drove them away, right?" ”

In front of the black-haired beauty, Weiss deliberately restrained his emotions, introduced his story of fighting guerrillas in Lorraine in a humble and low-key way and in relatively concise language, and concluded that the guerrilla war in Lorraine was due to the tenacity of the federal military and civilians, and he only played the role of threading the needle.

Professor Xiao Yang was not disrespectful to the hero, but he was not very interested in his topic, but he was more interested in what his father had just said: "What is the new type of long-term cooperation model you are talking about?" ”

"Oh, I think it would be more appropriate for Mr. Clumber-Haysen to explain it!" Professor Yang kicked the ball to Weiss. At this time, the beautiful little Professor Yang had already finished eating. Taking advantage of the opportunity of Professor Yang to bury his head in the meal, Weiss told his plan to the black-haired beauty in a more detailed way. These topics, which were not so attractive to ladies, made the brunette beauty sound very serious. When Weiss finished speaking, she changed her indifference just now and said very positively: "This is a very good idea, all mineral mining and water conservancy projects should have a complete and long-term plan, especially to pay attention to the protection of the ecological environment." Unfortunately, there are too few people who have the right vision. ”

"I knew it was to your liking." Professor Yang interjected.

"But I have to take the little sweet fruit with me." Professor Xiao Yang said to him.

Weiss wondered at first whether this "little sweet fruit" was a stuffed doll or a small pet, but he heard Professor Yang say: "She is only four years old, and she is so far away with you, can you take care of her alone?" ”

"Or else? You can't take care of her! Professor Xiao Yang retorted in a voice comparable to that of a machine gun.

Weiss listened in horror on the sidelines: the fact that the black-haired beauty is so young, and the baby is four years old, this fact is a little caught off guard......

Professor Yang pouted: "That's right, she wants to cry at night, I can't deal with her!" ”

After they had discussed briefly, the black-haired beauty symbolically asked Weiss, "You shouldn't mind, right?" ”

"No, how could it be?" Weiss hurriedly responded, "I have an eight-year-old nephew who is very cute and naughty. His father, my brother, was killed in the war. His mother stayed in his hometown with her little daughter, and he lived alone with us in Lorraine, with my parents taking care of him and a couple of very nice servants. If you go to Lorraine, you can rest assured that she will stay with us. ”

Sometimes, talking too much is not necessarily a good thing, and Weiss's hurried explanation feels like human trafficking, and this abduction is a big and a small. Not only the black-haired beauty, but even the old man seemed to be a little vigilant when he looked at him.

"When can you take your students to Lorraine? Do I need to pay your travel expenses in advance? Weiss quickly changed the subject.

"There will be no direct contact between me and you regarding the fees, you will provide the sponsorship fee to the college, and the college will arrange the expenses and subsidies for our trip. All you need to do is follow the checklist I have provided to prepare the equipment for the exploration and survey, and take care of our food, accommodation and transportation in Lorraine. "We'll bring some of our own equipment, but heavy equipment isn't easy to carry, and the academy doesn't have any extra preparations other than for teaching." The specific list of equipment, if it is convenient, please come to the college in two days to get it, or leave an address for me, I will send it to you. ”

This seems very simple, but Weiss also knows that there are a lot of equipment and materials involved in geological exploration and survey, and if you add the later mining, trial and adjustment, the investment is quite huge. Without the financial support of banks and consortia, it would be difficult to achieve even if the Clumberhaytham family was hollowed out. Having said that, the funds of banks and consortia are not given in vain, but need to bear a certain amount of interest, although for such a large project, they have appropriately lowered the interest rate, but also must have real operating income, in order to have the ability to repay the principal and interest. On the one hand, the income comes from the project itself, and on the other hand, it also depends on the level of management and operational efficiency, which is the same as the organization and implementation of combat operations in wartime.
