The next morning, at around seven o’clock, Li Sijin woke up dutifully. She knocked on the door and asked everyone to get up and wash up before going to eat.

After all, they were here to study. It wouldn’t be good if they were late.

The commoners of Dongsan County also understood this principle and obediently got up to wash up.

At around 8:10 a.m., they finished tidying up. Then, they gathered at the entrance and arrived at the agricultural courtyard in Bingcheng at around 8:40 a.m.

As a large agricultural province, this place had an advantage that Zhonghai could not compare to.

In the past, Lin Yi felt that Zhonghai was already very advanced in this aspect. However, when he came to Bingcheng, he realized it completed outclassed ZHonghai.

As they had agreed to meet at nine o’clock, everyone waited at the door when they arrived. Everything had to be done according to the rules.

However, Du Yuming and Tan Songming still did not come out by ten past nine.

“Call and ask what’s going on.” Lin Yi was a little impatient.

“Why don’t we wait a little longer? He’s probably busy. Let’s not rush him,” Li Sijin said softly.

Lin Yi pursed his lips and didn’t say anything else. He continued to sit at the side and chatted with Liang Ruoxu on WeChat.

However, after waiting for more than half an hour, no one came out, so Li Sijin was a little impatient.

“Let’s call and ask. We can’t keep waiting,” Lin Yi said.

“Got it, Brother Lin.”

Li Sijin took out her phone and dialed Du Yuming’s number.

“Department Director Du, we’re here. You…”

“We’re on our way. We’ll be there soon. Just wait a little longer.”

After a simple reply, Du Yuming hung up.

They were supposed to meet at nine o’clock, but he was almost an hour late. However, he didn’t say anything, as if it was only natural.

“What did the other party say?” Lin Yi asked.

“He told us to wait for a while. He’ll be here soon,” Li Sijin said helplessly.

It was as though they had no choice but to lower their heads under someone else’s roof.

“What the f*ck.”

Lin Yi cursed. He felt that this person called Du Yuming was indeed a little unreliable.

Fortunately, Liang Ruoxu had arranged this for him. If he had been the one to do it, he probably would not have gained anything from this trip.

About 20 minutes later, a Volkswagen Magotan stopped at the entrance of the research institute. Du Yuming and Tan Songming got out of the car.

“I’m really sorry. I was delayed by something,” Du Yuming said casually.

“Director Du’s business is more important. There’s no problem for us to wait for a while,” Li Sijin said politely.

Du Yuming nodded. “Is everyone here?”

“We’re all here.”

“Then I’ll show you the equipment in the courtyard first, but I have to make one thing clear. The equipment inside is very expensive. You just have to look. Don’t touch anything willy-nilly. If anything is damaged, you won’t be able to afford it.”

“Got it.”

Li Sijin forced a smile and agreed with Du Yuming.

The sense of superiority emanating from this person made her extremely uncomfortable.

Even someone as rich and powerful as Brother Lin could get along with the commoners of Dongsan County. Why was this person called Du Yuming so arrogant?

However, since they were already here, they still had to listen to him. They would walk away with valuable insight if they could learn something from him.

After a few reminders, Du Yuming led the people into the Agricultural Research Institute.

Although it looked very imposing from the outside, the interior environment was still an eye-opener for the commoners of Dongsan County.

Rows of rooms were filled with unknown instruments and equipment.

There were colorful potions on the table, and everyone looked at them curiously.

There was a large courtyard behind the agricultural research institute. There were many new agricultural machinery and equipment inside. There was also a large acre of experimental field. It made the people feel like they had arrived in another world.

Du Yuming arranged for the director of the laboratory to explain to the people in Dongsan County what the various laboratories were for.

Although everyone was listening with interest, Lin Yi didn’t care. It was useless to talk about these things. Their main job was to farm, not to work in a research institute.

However, Lin Yi didn’t say anything. Since he was here, he would take things as it came. After all, he didn’t need this person called Du Yuming for the training.

When Director Chen returned, he would arrange everything.

Smack!

Just as Lin Yi was thinking about these things, he suddenly heard the sound of glass shattering.

Lin Yi looked up and saw that Li Sijin had accidentally broken a glass instrument.

“What’s wrong with you? When I came in just now, didn’t I tell you not to touch the things inside? Did you ignore my words?!” Du Yuming scolded loudly.

Li Sijin wasn’t a feisty and outgoing person to begin with.

Now that he was scolded by Du Yuming, his expression was uneasy and extremely awkward.

“I-I’m sorry. 1 didn’t mean to. I didn’t see it when 1 turned around.”

“I’m really impressed by you. What’s Old Wang thinking? He actually sent you to lead the team.” Du Yuming was still unwilling to let this go.

“Do you know how much this thing costs? It’s 100% imported. It costs more than 30,000 yuan each. Can you afford it?!”

“Department Director Du, don’t be angry. There are still spares in the lab. I’ll just go get another one. It won’t delay the testing.”

The person in charge of the laboratory was a middle-aged woman. She was a little chubby and smiled when she spoke. She gave off a very friendly feeling, in sharp contrast to Du Yuming.

“It’s not a matter of availability. This kind of experimental equipment costs more than 30,000 yuan. If it’s broken, it has to be paid off. It was such an avoidable calamity.” Du Yuming said unwillingly.

“If I had known, I wouldn’t have let them in.”

After saying that, Du Yuming looked at the twenty or so people from the Dongsan County and said,

“Don’t come in. Stand at the door and watch. Don’t break anything else again.”

“It’s just a device worth more than 30,000 yuan. Is there a need to be so arrogant?”

“Brother Lin, I’m sorry…”

Lin Yi nodded and pulled Li Sijin behind him. He said to the middle-aged woman in the laboratory,

“Director Miao, how much did the broken experimental equipment cost?”

“This, this…”

Because Lin Yi and the others came here to study through connections, Miao Lijuan was embarrassed to ask them to compensate, but this was not something she could decide.

“It’s fine. There’s no need to be vague. Just tell me how much it is.”

“This stuff is imported from Meiguo. Along with taxes, it’ll be about 34,000 yuan.”

“Can I borrow your phone?”

“My phone?”

“Yeah, for a minute.”

Miao Lijuan was too embarrassed to refuse. After unlocking it, she handed it to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi opened WeChat, pulled out the payment code, and transferred 40,000 yuan to Miao Lijuan.

“Director Miao, I’ve transferred 40,000 yuan to you. You can transfer 34,000 yuan to the finance department. As for the remaining 6,000 yuan, buy yourself a cup of coffee to enjoy. You’ve been talking to us for so long. I can’t have you work for nothing..”
