With more than two years left until the election year, Lin Yan felt that his worries were unfounded.
Shui Sheng has done a good job and you should have more confidence in him.
Among a group of friends, in the election year, only Shui Sheng, Hong Ling, Mao Mu and Lin Yun are over 18 years old and qualified to run.
Among the four, except Shui Sheng, who has the idea of entering politics, the remaining three are focused on studying and have no plans in this regard.
In the future, if you want to lead the development direction of Sun City, you still need reliable people to have the right to speak. Therefore, Shui Sheng can only bear the pressure.
After that, Qinghua went to Lin Yan several times to inquire about the situation. Lin Yan asked her to wait patiently. The arbitration tribunal deliberations took time, and there would be a result as soon as January next year.
Lin Yan was busy carving stencils, copying books, and discussing ship improvement drawings with Feng Wenwen every day. In a blink of an eye, it was October and the cold season was here.
The goal she set had not been completed. Looking at the dictionary with less than fifty pages left, Lin Yan sighed. She had tried her best.
After getting up and moving his body, Lin Yan was still thinking before going to bed that he must finish copying the dictionary within ten days. There is also a thick foundation of herbal medicine waiting for her.
Hurrying slowly, Lin Yan finally finished copying the dictionary on October 12th. There were more than a dozen notebooks in a thick stack. Lin Yan took them to find Hua Min.
As soon as he put the notebook on the table, Lin Yan said proudly: "Did you see that I have done everything I promised you? Don't rush me in the future. Every time I see you coming to see me, I feel like I owe you money." , I feel very guilty. From today on, I will definitely feel confident when I see you again."
Hua Min didn't care what Lin Yan said. She picked up the notebook and started to read it. When she saw the pages filled with writing, she almost cried with joy.
"It's really hard work. I will remember your contribution and will never bother you again." Hua Min turned to the next few books and took a closer look. "Your handwriting is really getting more and more perfunctory. If it weren't for You can't even recognize it if you look closely. Fortunately, I'm familiar with your notes and can copy them down. If you hand it to someone else, they probably won't be able to make out the words."
"You are still nitpicking. It's good to finish copying. I will never do such hard work again. It is really not done by humans. When I think about what I still owe Huang Ying, I get a big headache."
Hua Min chuckled and said, "Thank you very much. I've finished copying the dictionary first. It just so happens that Bai Chen's character templates are made quickly, so she can make more character templates according to the dictionary. The first-grade enlightenment book has been printed. It will be useful next year. No more copying by hand."
"It saves you trouble. I'm the only one who has to work so hard. You don't know how difficult that basic herbal medicine book is. I didn't dare to be distracted at all when copying, for fear of missing a word. It's too difficult."
"Come on. You can take down such a thick dictionary. There's nothing you can't do. I'm very optimistic about you." After Hua Min finished speaking, she was about to take out a blank book and planned to copy down.
There is only one copy of Lin Yan's manuscript, so it should be treasured carefully. Hua Min always took out his own manuscript and asked others to copy it.
"Don't be busy with work yet. Let me ask you, how are Qingjun and the other seven doing in school?"
"It's pretty good. They all have good brains, are smart, and can learn anything quickly. They are all good prospects. I think they can complete the two-year course in one year at most. I was just going to ask you, do you want to Don’t teach them anything more esoteric.”
"Have you finished learning the Chinese characters? Do you speak Sun City fluently?"
"Speaking is not a problem at all. I have recognized all the words I was taught. Not only do I know them, I can also write them very well. After adapting, the seven children are very diligent and hardworking. When the cold season is over, I want them to go home and stay for a while. Teach their tribesmen what you have learned. Just let them bring back a few more literacy enlightenment books."
"The cold season is over, and the fleet will definitely go to Qingyan and the Wilderness Tribe, so it's just right to take them with them. They should be homesick after being away from home for a few months. Anyway, the ships will have to travel frequently in the future, and it will be convenient for them to come to Sun City. You Teach whatever you want to teach.”
"Why is the fleet going to Qingyan and the Wilderness Tribe? Do you want to deliver goods?" Hua Min asked curiously.
"It's a delivery, and I'll bring back some goods by the way. Tell Qingjun and the others, let them stay in peace, and send them home when the time comes."
"You don't want to bring salt back, do you?" Hua Min couldn't believe it. "You have also seen that not many people in Sun City really recognize salt. Bringing so much salt back is of little use. Will the arbitration tribunal agree? ?”
Lin Yan smiled but didn't answer, "Don't worry about this and just copy the dictionary. I'm leaving first."
Shortly after returning to the office and sitting down, Lin Yan was about to draw a drawing when Huang Ying came, and she suddenly felt something bad.
Sure enough, Huang Ying hit the nail on the head as soon as she opened her mouth, "You've finished copying Hua Min's dictionary. My herbal medicine basics are already a month old. You must give me part of it."
"Don't worry, I've finished copying the dictionary. Next, I will concentrate on copying the medical books. I will make sure you see the complete version as soon as possible. Believe me, I can definitely finish it in half a year at most."
Huang Ying looked at her with a half-smile, "Do you still have your credit?"
"Well, just wait, I will definitely do what I say."
"Okay, by January next year, you have to hand over part of it to me." Huang Ying felt that it was better to put some pressure and agree on a time point, otherwise it would end in vain.
"No problem." Lin Yan said with certainty. She felt that Han Ji's hard work would not be a big problem. "How are the people in your laboratory doing?"
Huang Ying has five people under her, all of whom she selected from the elite class. Lin Yan rarely saw people, so he suddenly remembered and asked.
"They are pretty good. They are smart, eager to learn, and can endure hardships. Speaking of which, I plan to take them to the wild to search for medicinal herbs next year."
"Are you serious? It's so dangerous outside, can you guarantee your own safety?"
Huang Ying smiled and said: "Don't worry, it's not just a few of us. I have already told Lan Yue that she will bring people from the military department with her."
"Why did the military send Lan Yue to take people out?" Lin Yan heard this for the first time and had no idea about the military's plan.
"For experience and to complete the mission. The military will send a small team to accompany them. Their mission is to find more resources. In addition to iron, there are also metals such as gold, silver, and copper, which are the goals of the military. After I heard about it at the time, I feel this is a rare opportunity. The medical research laboratory should also explore more herbal medicines and hone themselves through practice."
"It is indeed an opportunity. Where are you going?"
"The place hasn't been decided yet. It should be a wild place that has never been visited before. There is a high chance that there will be new discoveries in places that no one has ever been to."
Lin Yan nodded, "Take me with you." She needed to collect more things in exchange for contribution points, and there were only 15 rooms open in the science and technology museum.
Huang Ying was startled, "Are you really going? There are so many things waiting for you to do. The time of our departure is uncertain. If we are delayed along the way and cannot come back, we will be in trouble."
She knew very well that Lin Yan was different from others and could not take risks. Huang Ying didn't want Lin Yan to follow.
