Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Lu Zhou began to wonder maybe that was why his mom was so enthusiastic about Chen Yushan.

Her son was single for so long, every girl looked like a perfect match…

As long as they had two Y chromosomes, Fang Mei couldn’t wait to abduct them as a daughter in law…

“Oh my, look at you,” Fang Mei said to Chen Yushan.

Chen Yushan was unmatched in this small town when it came to appearance. Her outgoing and friendly personality made Feng Mei a little worried as she felt like her son’s cold and awkward personality wasn’t good enough for Chen Yushan.

“Oh auntie, don’t say that,” Chen Yushan blush and said.

“Oh it’s fine, are you looking for Lu Zhou? Come on in! My son’s a little introverted, don’t take anything he says to heart. We’re still eating right now; did you eat yet? How about… Old Lu, go get some chopsticks and a bowl!”

“Okay!”

Chen Yushan was a little baffled by Fang Mei’s enthusiasm, and she euphemistically declined.

“No, no, it’s fine, I already ate.”

Lu Zhou sighed and put down his chopsticks.

Even though he still wanted to enjoy his food…

“Mom, I’m full.”

“Already?”

“Yeah, and you… come with me.”

With his parents and sisters watching, Lu Zhou brought Chen Yushan into his bedroom.

Lu Zhou closed the door and sat at his desk. He finally felt relieved.

He was finally away from his overly-excited family.

After Chen Yushan went into Lu Zhou’s room, she curiously looked around.

“This is your room?”

“Yeah, but I only stay here during the holidays.”

Chen Yushan suddenly noticed a framed photo sitting on the desk. She then said, “I see… Oh? Is this a photo of you in high school?” Her eyes lit up like she just saw a piece of treasure. However, before she could closely look at it, the “treasure” disappeared from her sight.

“I don’t have time to clean up yet…” Lu Zhou said as he quickly stuffed the photo frame into a drawer. He said, “Please sit.”

“Selfish!”

Chen Yushan looked around and saw that there wasn’t another chair in the room, so she sat on the bed instead.

They were good friends, so there was nothing weird about this.

Lu Zhou couldn’t help but ask, “Why are you here? Also, why didn’t you tell me?”

“I told you, but you ignored me.” Chen Yushan took out her phone and said, “Look.”

Lu Zhou took her phone and looked.

Those emojis look like Xiao Ai’s writing…

Lu Zhou took out his phone and secretly sent Xiao Ai a message.

[Why didn’t you tell me to reply!]

Xiao Ai: [But Master, you told me to decline all visiting requests?]

This kid!

Just a few days ago, I was praising its intelligence, but now, it’s gone full retard again!

Chen Yushan looked at Lu Zhou typing on his phone and tilted her head.

“Are you busy?”

“No.” Lu Zhou put away his phone and said, “It’s the holidays, why are you here… Don’t you want to celebrate?”

Chen Yushan: “Holidays, my as*! Chinese New Year was three days ago. I flew here from Beijing.”

Lu Zhou: “But it’s still the holidays, aren’t you going to stay with your family?”

“Can’t stand them.” Chen Yushan sighed and rolled her eyes, “As an unmarried woman in her mid-twenties, my family thinks everything I do is wrong. My dad arranged two dates for me the day after Chinese New Year’s Eve. I had to escape.”

Lu Zhou wanted to say that he was going through the same thing, but he felt a little weird sympathizing with her.

“What’s wrong with a blind date? What if you like them?”

“I don’t like it.” Chen Yushan shook her head and said, “Having to spend the rest of your life with someone you’ve never met is worse than buying a lottery ticket.”

Lu Zhou felt like, because of her father’s background, the guys being introduced to her were all top-tier.

However, everyone had their own ideas about marriage.

After all, romance was only one part of life; there were more meaningful things to do.

For example, self-actualization.

That was far more meaningful than passing on one’s genetics.

Chen Yushan smiled at Lu Zhou and said, “Whatever, I’m not here to harass you. I wanted to go back to Jinling, but I had something to do at the Jiangcheng semiconductor site. Plus I had some things I need to discuss with you in person, so I came here instead.”

Lu Zhou: “What?”

“I’ve read your suggestion letter. I made some simple modifications. Of course, that’s not why I’m here.” Chen Yushan took out a document from her bag and placed it on the table as she said, “Look at this, I got this from my dad’s connections. It’s internal information.”

“19+2 city group…” Lu Zhou looked at the document and frowned as he said, “Isn’t this a policy from a long time ago?”

“Not the same,” Chen Yushan shook her head and said, “Thanks to your shares in East Asia Energy, I heard that East Asia Energy plans on building a new fusion power plant in the Yangtze River Delta Economic Zone near Shanghai. This power station is likely going to serve the Yangtze River Delta city group!”

Lu Zhou curiously asked, “So?”

Chen Yushan smirked and said, “You do know I studied economics and management, so I have some experience in macroeconomics. The expansion of controllable fusion energy over the past three years will certainly accelerate the urbanization process of fusion power area coverage.

“After combing some information I heard from my father, I have a feeling that Beijing is actively trying to accelerate this process. They are going to start with the Yangtze River Delta city group!”

Even though Lu Zhou still had a ton of questions, he had a general idea of what Chen Yushan meant.

All in all, Chen Yushan speculated that the Yangtze River Delta could become a test pilot for building a modern city group, and this meant unlimited business opportunities.

Lu Zhou: “So, do you have any plans?”

“That’s what I’m planning on discussing with you.” Chen Yushan took out another document from her bag and placed it on the table. She smiled confidently and said, “Unfortunately, we’re not in the real estate business; otherwise, I would definitely recommend you to buy the surrounding land in Shanghai. Fortunately, real estate isn’t the only place to make money. After all, we are a high-tech company. We should focus on our own niche.”

Lu Zhou curiously asked, “Like what?”

“Smart city.” Chen Yushan’s tender finger tapped on the document on the table as she said ambitiously, “Listen carefully, I’m about to tell you the core concept of this plan…”
