"Yaaawn~"
Su Chen sat at the dining table, yawning from time to time. You could faintly see that his eyes were bloodshot.
"Sir, did you stay up late last night?" Jiang Hui asked softly from the side.
"Yeah... yaawn~ I was looking up some information last night and lost track of time. Before I knew it, it was two or three in the morning. I’m going to go catch up on some sleep. Wake me up when Wu Jing gets here."
Last night, after Su Chen saw the water resource purification technology from the system’s blind box, he had only planned to glance at it before sleeping. Who would have thought he’d get completely engrossed the moment he saw the table of contents?
The contents of this water purification technology were incredibly comprehensive. It could purify anything related to water—even nuclear wastewater...
Take the wastewater purification technology, for example. While purifying sewage, it could also use corresponding techniques to extract various components from the water. Beyond known metals like gold and copper, it could also isolate precious compounds like algin, which can promote cell division and slow aging.
Moreover, the wastewater purification process utilized a brand-new technology—electronic beam irradiation—which falls into the realm of the nuclear industry.
This technology was not only efficient, convenient, and low-cost, but it also had no side effects on the surrounding environment. It could even purify industrial wastewater into normal drinking water.
Besides purifying wastewater, there was also a highly efficient technology for converting seawater into drinking water. It could truly deliver on the promise: give me an ocean, and I’ll give you countless tons of fresh water.
Anyone with some knowledge in this field could quickly establish a water resource treatment company.
Last night, Su Chen had only managed to read less than a third of the entire document on water purification technology. He didn’t plan on reading the rest—mainly because he couldn’t understand it. Even for what he did read, he had to constantly look up related concepts as he went.
"Very well, Sir," Jiang Hui replied.
Su Chen ate a simple meal and went back to his room. His eyelids were fighting to stay open, and after a series of seven or eight yawns, he just couldn’t take it anymore.
Not ten minutes after he went upstairs, Wu Jing rang the courtyard’s doorbell.
"Ah... Sir was busy late last night. He just finished breakfast and went back to his room to rest. I didn’t expect you to arrive so early," Jiang Hui explained with a calm expression.
Wu Jing nodded silently upon hearing this.
"I’m not sure when Sir will wake up. Perhaps you could come back this afternoon, Mr. Wu?"
"It’s fine. I don’t have anything else to do today anyway. I’ll just wait for Mr. Su," Wu Jing had nothing else scheduled, so he decided to just stay and wait in the courtyard house.
Seeing this, Jiang Hui didn’t press the matter. He led Wu Jing to the guest lounge and brewed him a pot of Yuqian Longjing tea.
Smelling the rich aroma of the tea, Wu Jing said apologetically, "Steward Jiang, sorry to trouble you."
