Siheyuan: Grassroots Counterattack

Chapter 145 Integrated Circuits

After Li Tianyi finished eating, Xiaoxue took the bowl to the kitchen. When they entered the bedroom, Xiaoxue shivered. Li Tianyi saw this and quickly stepped forward to help Xiaoxue take off her thick clothes, and then they got into the quilt.

The two of them snuggled together on the bed and talked quietly. Xiaoxue asked Li Tianyi: "Brother Tian, ​​you came back so early today. Is the project finished?"

"No, it's just that part of the project has been completed. The dean saw that we were too tired during this period, so he gave us two days off to have a good rest."

"Really?" Xiaoxue raised her head in surprise. "Brother, I'll give you the things for the New Year at home. You can buy them in the next two days. If you don't buy everything, mom and I will go after we have a break."

Li Tianyi's face was full of black lines at this time. He really didn't want to go shopping, but his wife assigned him the task, so he had to go even if he didn't want to.

"Okay, I'll go check it out first." Li Tianyi said helplessly, "Wife, it's still more than half a month before the Chinese New Year, why are you buying things so early?"

Xiaoxue stared at Li Tianyi with a half-smile, which made Li Tianyi feel a little embarrassed. "Wife, don't look at me like that. Can't I go buy it?"

"Hmph, that's how you behave." Xiaoxue patted Li Tianyi's chest soothingly.

"Brother Tian, ​​you can buy some first, mainly meat, it will be hard to buy at the end of the year!"

"I know. I'll go check it out tomorrow."

It was a dreamless night. When Li's mother came to make breakfast in the morning, Li Tianyi was already exercising in the yard. Seeing this, Li's mother hurried forward to ask about Li Tianyi's physical condition. Li Tianyi assured that he was really fine. Only then did Li's mother feel relieved and went to the kitchen.

After a while, Xiaoxue also got up and went into the kitchen to help. While eating, Xiaoxue mentioned that Li Tianyi had two days of vacation, and also expressed that Li Tianyi could go buy New Year's goods first.

Li's mother didn't have time to eat, and immediately asked Li Tianyi to get paper and pen. Li's mother said, "Li Tianyi, write." He quickly wrote a list of things that needed to be purchased.

Looking at the long list of purchases, Li Tianyi regretted agreeing to Xiaoxue's request. "Mom, why don't you go buy them yourself when you have a break? I'll stay at home to look after An'an and Doudou today."

Mother Li rolled her eyes and said to Li Tianyi unhappily, "An An is yours today, but you also have to go buy New Year's goods."

Li Tianyi's last struggle failed, and he even found himself a small burden.

Li Tianyi glared at An An. When An An heard that he could go out and play with his dad, he smiled so hard that his back teeth could be seen.

He didn't get angry even after being glared at by his father, and continued to drink his porridge with a smile. However, Father Li next to him was not happy about this. He thought it was outrageous that his eldest grandson dared to glare at him.

So Father Li raised his chopsticks and tapped Li Tianyi, "You're not eating, why are you staring at An An? I'm warning you, if An An complains to me when you get home from get off work today, I'll show you how I'll deal with you."

Li Tianyi dared to be angry but not to speak out. Ever since his father had a grandson, his status in the family had obviously declined.

After breakfast, Mr. and Mrs. Li went to work, while Li Tianyi put thick clothes on An An, put on a cotton hat, and made An An look like a ball before going out.

The northwest wind was blowing outside the door. Li Tian put An An on the small chair of the bicycle and asked with his head down, "An An, are you cold?"

An An shook his head, then urged excitedly: "Dad, let's go quickly."

So the father and son started a day-long shopping trip. Afterwards, Li Tianyi and Xiaoxue complained that they would never go shopping with An An again. This little guy was addicted to shopping and wanted to go in and take a look at everything he saw. However, after walking a few steps, he said he was tired and wanted Li Tianyi to hold him.

But Li Tianyi was carrying a lot of things in his hands, how could he carry him? So he changed from carrying to carrying him on his back. This day, Li Tianyi was very tired, he felt more tired than going to work.

But An An, who had been crazy all day, fell asleep after eating something at night. Li's mother also blamed Li Tianyi, saying that Li Tianyi had exhausted her eldest grandson.

Li Tianyi felt that he was more wronged than Dou E. The next day, Li Tianyi said he would not go out no matter what, so he stayed at home to look after the children for a day.

This morning, after Li Tianyi had breakfast, he went to work as if escaping. He felt that he still liked working. Yesterday, the two children were either crying or shouting, and he was busy serving the two young masters and had no time to rest.

When they arrived at the Academy of Sciences, Mr. Tang's secretary was already waiting in the office. After Li Tianyi greeted Secretary Zhang, Secretary Zhang said, "Engineer Li, Dean Zhang informed Mr. Tang yesterday that the batch of transistors you needed has arrived. Would it be convenient for you to come with me to pick them up now?"

"Of course it is convenient. Thank you so much, Mr. Tang and you." Li Tianyi hurriedly expressed his gratitude.

Afterwards, Secretary Zhang took Li Tianyi to pick up the things. After saying goodbye to Secretary Zhang, Li Tianyi carried the things into the office.

After opening the box, I first checked whether the items inside were qualified, and then began to check the quantity.

This time he submitted three times the number of orders to the Academy of Sciences. If the first attempt failed, he could conduct a second experiment, which also left himself a backup option.

From that day on, Li Tianyi locked himself in the office again. He first spot-soldered some things, and after buying the chips, he could directly install the transistors on the chips.

This computer uses thousands of transistors, all of which are welded manually. It is a huge project, but given the conditions in China, there is no way to use the machines.

During this period, Mr. Tang and Dean Zhang also came to Li Tianyi's office several times. Every time they came, they could see Li Tianyi lying on the table tinkering with transistors.

They didn't dare to disturb them, they just watched quietly for a while and then left quietly.

So when the Academy of Sciences was on holiday, Li Tianyi was still busy. Old Tang walked into the office and sat on the sofa. After Li Tianyi finished his work, Old Tang walked up to him and said, "Xiao Li, take a rest first. You have been too tired in the past ten days. Now we are on annual leave, you should also put down your things and go home to rest."

Li Tianyi raised his head, his eyes bloodshot, "Mr. Tang, I have already arranged the components on this table. They cannot be put into the safe, and the arrangement of these things is confidential and cannot be seen by others, so I want to get them all ready as soon as possible."

"Hey, Xiao Li, I understand how you feel. Don't worry, no one in the Academy of Sciences can steal secrets here. I will ask Dean Zhang to monitor this room 24 hours a day."

Li Tianyi thought about the progress of his work and realized that he would not be able to finish it before the New Year. If he wanted to finish all three sets of integrated circuits, it would take at least another month, so he had no choice but to accept Mr. Tang's kindness.
