Chapter 207 Crossing the Army
I didn't expect this person to be a scientific researcher. I wonder if there are other people who have traveled through time in this era besides the two of them.
Through mutual understanding, Du Wenbo also knew the specific situation of the girl in front of him. In his era, the girl in front of him was the person of the future.
It is not an era, but a more developed era. They can travel freely through the universe. If it were not for the zombie virus, what would the earth develop into? What kind of era would that be? He could not imagine.
As a member of the traversal army, have you ever thought about taking the scientific expedition route? Mo Rao said sincerely.
After all, they were both time travelers, and based on this relationship, if he really wanted to pursue a career in politics, she would still help him with this. It would only cost some money.
Du Wenbo said bitterly, "Forget about the imperial examination. I'm not good at communication, and I don't understand the intrigues and deceptions of the officialdom. If I enter the officialdom, I'm afraid my head will be chopped off in a few days. It's better to be safe and not enter the officialdom."
Besides, studying is not really my ambition. Doing practical research is more suitable for me.
Du Wenbo suddenly became somewhat discouraged and continued, "It's a pity that this place is too barren. Even if I wanted to research, there's nothing for me to study. If it really doesn't work out, could you lend me some money so I can plant two acres of land and have some food and clothing? That way I can get by."
Can you farm? Mo Rao asked with a curious raised eyebrow.
No. Du Wenbo answered simply.
No, you still have to farm. Mo Rao said teasingly with a smile.
If you don't know how to do it, you can learn. Otherwise, what can you do? Since you are here, you can't starve to death! Du Wenbo said helplessly.
Tell us what your special talents are, so that you can have a direction for development.
I…
Du Wenbo was speechless for a moment. He didn't know what his special skills were.
He seemed to be incapable of anything else besides studying. For as long as he could remember, he rarely watched television or listened to family gossip. He had no friends as a child, and he remembered his parents avoiding anyone or anything that might interfere with his studies.
After that, he became a nerd in the eyes of others, studying rigidly.
Later, he became obsessed with invention, and his research was recognized by the country. After that, at a young age, he was given key training by the country.
He can be said to be an idiot in life. Coming to a place like this, he has to do everything by himself. He can imagine how miserable his future life will be.
Looking at you, I know that you must have been a nerd in your previous life, full of knowledge, but it's a pity that you didn't take the imperial examination.
There is nothing to regret. Officialdom is not suitable for me. Although the life of ordinary people is hard, I believe that as a knowledgeable person like me, I can definitely live a good life.
I didn’t expect you to be so confident, Mo Rao said with a smile.
If you really like research, I can provide you with a venue. Mo Rao stopped teasing him and said with a smile.
Eh! Du Wenbo didn't feel as happy as he had imagined after hearing what Mo Rao said. Instead, he sighed and said, "Even if I have a site but no research materials, I still can't develop anything useful."
As you know, this era was too barren, with nothing. Even if one wanted to make a chip, it would be extremely difficult, mainly because of the lack of materials.
Mo Rao said nonchalantly, "That's easy. We can make the materials ourselves, such as the alloy materials, which we can forge ourselves. Some ores have not yet been discovered in this era, so they are not under control. This also gives us an opportunity."
Glass products, alloy materials, power supplies, etc. As long as you can use these, we can develop them ourselves.
Du Wenbo said in disbelief, "You have to make all the materials yourself? Do you do it or do I?"
Mo Rao chuckled and said, "Of course you're the one doing this. Aren't you a scientific researcher? If not you, who will?"
Du Wenbo said with a look of frustration, "Sister, are you sure? Although I'm a scientific researcher, I'm not omnipotent. Every profession has its own specializations, and professional matters should naturally be left to professionals." Therefore, alloy materials were not his strong point. His previous inventions were based on having sufficient materials. Now there was nothing, so he was expected to create something out of thin air?
Why do I feel like you, as a scientific researcher, are so insignificant now? Aren't scientific researchers supposed to be well-rounded?
Mo Rao didn't really know what a researcher was like. After all, in her previous life, most researchers had died, and she was just a soldier. All she knew was written knowledge. She'd read a lot, so she had a photographic memory. Whatever she wanted to do, she had to go through multiple experiments.
Mo Rao straightened her expression and said, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. If you have the materials you need, I'll give you the experimental directions and experimental data. Is that still difficult?"
That's fine, but do you really have so much data in your head? Du Wenbo asked curiously.
That's natural. Times are progressing. There's nothing strange about it, Mo Rao said indifferently.
How can it not be surprising? You can actually memorize so many books in your head. That means your brain is even more powerful than that chip. Du Wenbo said disapprovingly.
But if we want to conduct experiments, the materials are scattered all over the place. How can we find them? And how can we build a laboratory? The money required is not cheap. I see that you are a wealthy person and have a good life. Why don't you think of spending a huge amount of money on it?
Mo Rao sighed and said, "This era is just too boring. If I don't create something for myself, I always feel like I've come here for nothing." Now that I can eat and drink my fill, I can create something else. This way, I can prove that I've lived, and that my previous life wasn't just a figment of my imagination. Otherwise, she wouldn't even be able to tell if she existed in her previous life.
Hey! Who said it wasn't? Du Wenbo also sighed, especially his feelings were the deepest. The girl in front of him had already lived in the end times in her previous life. The world was about to end, and there was nothing to be nostalgic about.
But he lived in an era where he had no worries about food and clothing, lived a leisurely life, worked in a field he loved, had bodyguards when he went out, and had a butler. He even had more money in his bank account than he could spend in several lifetimes.
Although my emotions had faded, I at least lived a decent life. It wasn't like now. Life was fresh, and I'd experienced the ups and downs of life. Even the beggars on the street had it better off than me, and I'd almost become a waiter. Ugh! I can't think about it; the more I think about it, the more miserable I feel.
Now that I'm here, I don't know much else, but I do have some experience in R&D, so I'll work for you from now on! But we still need to build a lab.
I have a laboratory, but I'm in need of talent like you. I can provide you with any materials you need, so you can research with confidence. If we don't have some materials, we can research them ourselves, but the contents of this laboratory cannot be leaked.
After all, some things that do not belong to this era have appeared. These things are beyond their acceptance range, and they might burn us as monsters.
When Du Wenbo heard that Mo Rao could handle the materials problem, his eyes lit up. It must be the future of advanced technology. Nothing is a problem for this girl. She even gathered all the materials. If it were him, he would never be able to gather those materials in several lifetimes.
If time travel still meant that only the capable could take the throne, then he was just a filler. He didn't know what the heavens were thinking, dragging a useless person like him to such a place.
"Okay, I'll just focus on the research and not worry about anything else. I have another question," Du Wenbo asked cautiously.
"What's the problem?" Mo Rao asked.
Do I get any wages or bonuses? Du Wenbo felt a little embarrassed to ask this question. After all, he was a purchased slave. Even if he was mentally retarded, he knew that slaves in this era had no human rights. He had never cared about money in his previous life, but in this era, he still had to worry about income.
Don't worry, since we are all part of the same time-traveling army, your wages and bonuses will not be reduced.
In this way, Mo Rao found a good helper for herself. Du Wenbo didn't care about the officialdom at all.
Fame and fortune are nothing to him; research is his hobby.
Sixteen quickly bought Yuwu Mountain for fifteen hundred taels. Mountains were really cheap in that era. Yuwu Mountain was close to the official road, so it was convenient to travel back and forth.
You can use the remaining money to buy some strong men, and Sixteen will be responsible for the rest. Mo Rao briefly explained his plan to Sixteen, and after Sixteen understood it, he immediately went to carry it out.
It was already midnight when Mo Rao and others returned to the village. The carriage entered the village, causing the local dogs in the surrounding villages to bark non-stop.
The barking of dogs woke up many people in the village. Now that every family in the village has a better life, they are afraid that thieves will come to steal things. So when they hear the barking of dogs, they will get up and look around, for fear that there will be thieves.
From the dirt road in the village came the clatter of horse hooves and the gurgling of horse wheels.
The villagers stood at the door, lighting the oil lamps and watching the carriage drive towards the Mo family's house, they knew it was the Mo family's carriage.
The villagers were envious when they saw that even the servants of the Mo family had a horse each, and that they had a large and spacious carriage. They didn't know when the life of the Mo family became different from that of the farmers.
There are those who envy and those who are jealous, bah! What's so great about it? It's just a few stinky dollars. What's there to show off? It's all earned by seducing men. The woman said this and spat in the direction of the carriage.
