Melbourne Airport is less than 20 kilometers from the city, but the house Xu's father bought is not in the city center, but in the Glen Waverley area in the southeast of the city, which is the second largest Chinese community in Melbourne.
Xu's mother asked, "How is the company now? Last time you said that a big customer was missing and the performance dropped by half."
He said, "I just took two big orders and it's back to what it was before."
"That's good. If you encounter any difficulties, just say it and don't hold on. By the way, Ziyan has been lately."
After chatting for a while, the car slowed down. Looking at the various villas on the street, he knew he was almost there.
After driving another two or three hundred meters, the car turned right and drove into a courtyard. Wang Lidong looked at his Australian home through the car window, a two-story Cape Cod-style villa with a pointed roof and beige.
It has colorful walls and a large chimney in the center of the roof.
After getting off the car, what I saw was a large lawn, which was more than 300 square meters. On the edge of the lawn was a log fence. There were many flowers, grass and small trees planted in front of the fence. There was a lawn of about 20 square meters in the southwest corner of the yard.
Swimming pool, "Mom, the villa is more than 300 square meters, right?"
"Well, it's 386 square meters, and there's a small garden at the back. Together, it's 830 square meters."
Wang Lidong couldn't help but sigh, "It's so cheap!"
If a villa of this size were to be placed in Mingzhu, even in suburbs such as Huating and Qingpu, it would not be available for less than RMB 30 to 40 million. But his family only paid 1.1 million Australian dollars, equivalent to 5.5 million Sihai dollars.
Xu's father parked the car, got out of the car and asked, "Xiaoshan, why don't you take a nap first to get over the jet lag?"
Wang Lidong waved his hand and said, "No, I slept all the way."
"Then go to your room first, put your luggage away, and then show you the house." Father Xu said and took out his son's luggage from the trunk.
Wang Lidong picked up the little girl next to him and followed Father Xu into the living room. His first impression was that it was empty. The living room was very large, estimated to be fifty or sixty square meters. It was decorated in a simple style, with mainly beige colors.
Not many things
Father Xu made an introduction as he walked, "The kitchen, living room, and a storage room are on the first floor. There are four rooms on the second floor, three bedrooms, and a study room." As he said this, he led Wang Lidong up to the second floor.
To a bedroom at the end of the hallway.
He walked into the room and looked around. It was more than thirty square meters, with wood-colored floors, white gauze curtains, and a row of green plants by the window. It was simple and refreshing.
Xu's father put the luggage in front of a large wardrobe, "The quilts on the bed and so on are all new. Your mother washed them after buying them."
Wang Lidong felt warm and walked to the fireplace and looked at it, "Can this thing be used?"
"After I moved in, I burned it once. The effect was not as good as the air conditioner, and it was very troublesome. If you want to try it, I'll get some firewood for you."
Wang Lidong waved his hands hurriedly, he just wanted to ask.
Qi's father checked the time and said, "I'm going to help your mother cook. Xianxian, please help take care of it. The entrance to the basement is next to the stairs in the living room." Before leaving, he also explained the various electrical switches.
The little fairy said cutely, "Brother, let's go play?"
"What do you want to play?"
"Bicycle."
"Where is Cheche?"
"downstairs."
"Okay, let's ride the bike, but before riding the bike, Xianxian, please show your brother to your room, okay?"
"good."
Wang Lidong picked up his sister and walked around the old couple's bedroom on the second floor, not much to see.
I opened the door and entered the fairy's room. The walls were painted colorfully, as if I had entered a fairy tale world. The floor was covered with various toys. The other room was a study room, and several bookshelves were filled with books.
In his memory, Xu's father never read books before.
I walked to the bookshelf and scanned it briefly. Most of them were domestically published books, and there were also some domestically published books. I randomly picked out a book and flipped through it. It was about things that happened thirty years ago. Some of them were true, but there were also some places.
exaggerate
Go down to the first floor and go down to the basement through the stairs. There are two rooms in total, one is decorated as karaoke, which is Xu's mother's hobby, and the other is decorated as an activity room with an automatic mahjong machine in the middle.
"Xianxian, where is your car?"
He followed Xiao Xianxian's baton and found a children's tricycle in the corner of the living room.
After taking the car to the yard, the little guy got on the car excitedly and pedaled with great vigor. Unfortunately, he didn't have much strength and the car swayed, which was just a little faster than the speed of a turtle.
About a quarter of an hour later, "Xiaoshan, it's time to eat." The voice of his mother calling for dinner was heard in the house. Wang Lidong picked up his little sister and came to the restaurant. Seeing her little girl sweating profusely, Xu's mother hurriedly stepped forward to take her.
, took a dry towel and carefully wiped away the sweat, "I forgot to tell you, immortals cannot sweat. Once you sweat, you will easily catch a cold if the wind blows."
Wang Lidong patted his head, forgetting what he had brought, and said, "I'm going to get something."
With that said, he ran to the room on the second floor and took out two large bags of things and two children's toys from the suitcase.
Returning to the restaurant, he opened a bag, which contained some snacks from Mingzhu, including Jintuan, Tiaotou Cake, and Shuangyongtuan. “You can buy everything online now, so I brought you some snacks.”
The old couple was very happy. Although they were worthless, they were all from their son's heart. Xu's mother opened a pack of Tiaotou cakes and took a bite. They were very authentic. The little fairy said greedily, "Mom."
"Xianxian is still too young to eat these things. My brother brought you a gift." Wang Lidong took out a string of bells and a rattle, "Dongdongdong", Xianxian's attention was immediately attracted by the small toys,
He took the gift and said sweetly, "Thank you, brother."
Wang Lidong stroked the little guy's head, then opened another bag and took out twenty paper packets of Chinese medicine, "Mom, do you have a casserole at home?"
Xu's father picked up a packet of paper and smelled it. It smelled like Chinese medicine. He looked at his son and said, "Xiaoshan, are you sick?"
"I didn't drink it." Wang Lidong explained, "During the last video, I found that my mother had lost her vitality, and Xiaoxian was born with a deficiency, so I asked someone to find a prescription to replenish my vitality."
"Who asked for the prescription? Is it effective? Don't take medicines randomly." Qi's father opened the Chinese medicine in his hand and looked at it. He recognized Codonopsis pilosula, Poria cocos, wolfberry and dozens of other Chinese medicines.
, "Xianxian is only two years old, can he still drink?"
"The recipe I got from Longhu Mountain," Wang Lidong said with a smile, "I specifically asked, it can be used by children too, but the quantity should be smaller. I have tried it, and the effect is good."
Qi's mother was moved and said, "Xiao Shan, you are very thoughtful. We have a casserole, how do you make this?"
"It's very simple, just put water and boil." Wang Lidong took a packet of Chinese medicine and followed his mother to the kitchen, poured the Chinese medicine into a casserole, filled it with water and waited until it boiled, then turned the heat to the minimum.
Just cook it for two hours.”
"Let it burn, let's eat first. The food is almost cold." Xu's mother took her son back to the restaurant.
Father Xu poured some red wine for everyone, raised his glass and said, "Let's raise a glass together, firstly to welcome Xiaoshan home, and secondly to celebrate our family reunion."
"Cheers." Xianxian raised the small cup and happily touched one with everyone.
"cheers."
Xu's mother picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in Wang Lidong's bowl, "Son, your favorite braised pork."
"Thank you, Mom." Wang Lidong picked it up and took a bite. It was fat but not greasy, soft and glutinous, and tasted great, just a little bit sweet. "Mom, if you open a private restaurant with your skills, the business will definitely be booming."
Xu's mother smiled and said, "If you like to eat, eat more."
Xu's father asked, "How many days will we stay this time?"
Wang Lidong said, "I'll go back after celebrating the immortal's birthday."
"Then I'll stay for ten days. Is it okay with the company?"
"It's okay. Everything was arranged before I came out."
Father Xu gave his son a piece of smoked fish and said, "We have plenty of time. Let's take a day off today. Let's go out to play again tomorrow."
Wang Lidong said, "I came here mainly to see you. Don't go far away, just take a walk."
He has been here twice and visited most places. The natural scenery is good, but the rest is just average. It can be said that Australia is almost the same. And this time he came here, he also had a lot of things to do.
Xu's mother said, "This is a rare occasion. Your father and I have discussed that we will go to Xinni for five days, then go to Brisbane for three days, and then return to Melbourne to celebrate Xianxian's birthday."
Wang Lidong said hurriedly, "Mom, I have something to do when I come here this time. I won't go anywhere else. I will just go shopping around Melbourne."
Xu's mother asked curiously, "Is it better to be with someone else?"
Seeing the gossipy look on the cheap lady's face, he probably guessed what she was thinking, waved his hand and said, "I borrowed a chemistry laboratory to do some experiments."
Xu's mother was a little disappointed. After scooping a spoonful of corn kernels for her daughter, she asked, "What experiment?"
"I have been optimizing the formula of blue fireworks in the past few years. I recently made some discoveries and wanted to try them out."
"Fireworks? Dangerous cutting?"
Wang Lidong smiled and said, "Mom, I majored in chemistry in college."
"Where is the laboratory?"
"I have already contacted the Chemistry Laboratory of Mohina University before coming here."
"Oh, it's not that far. It takes five minutes to drive there."
The family ate and chatted, and the lunch lasted for nearly two hours. By the time the bowls were cleared away, Peiyuan soup had already been cooked.
A large bowl of Peiyuan soup was divided into three parts by Wang Lidong, three-quarters by Xu's mother, and half by each of Xu's father and Xiaoxianxian.
"Drink it after it has warmed up. You can only drink this decoction once a day. Xiao Xianxian is still young, so she can only drink a small bowl, not more."
After the soup had warmed up, Xu's mother closed her eyes and drank a bowl of Chinese medicine.
Just when I was about to take a plum to relieve my pain, I suddenly felt a warm current rising in my stomach. After a while, my whole body felt warm, and my whole body seemed to feel more relaxed.
Xu's mother was a discerning person, and immediately realized that the prescription was precious, and asked Wang Lidong, "Xiaoshan, didn't this prescription cost a lot of favors?"
He smiled and said, "A classmate from the university helped me. His family has relatives who are Taoist priests in Longhu Mountain."
"When you get back, you must thank them properly when you have the opportunity." Xu's mother warned her a few times, and then asked her wife and daughter to drink it while it was hot.
Xu's father asked doubtfully, "I have always been in good health. I want to drink too?"
Wang Lidong smiled and said, "Dad, this decoction has the effect of strengthening the foundation and cultivating the soul. You are over sixty this year, and this decoction has the effect of relieving aging."
After hearing that it could relieve aging, Xu's father immediately picked up the small bowl and Gu Dong drank the decoction in one gulp.
The little fairy also learned to pick up the small bowl, drank the soup in the small bowl with two sips, and then her little face wrinkled up. Xu's mother hurriedly fed her daughter some plum meat.
The little guy patted his belly and giggled, "Mom, warm me."
Seeing her daughter's reaction, Xu's mother finally felt relieved and wiped the sweat from her forehead with a towel, "Xiaoshan, how long do I need to drink this decoction?"
"Drink it for half a year first, and then check after half a year. If it returns to normal, then once a week. When dispensing the prescription, go to two more stores. If there is a Chinese medicine missing from the prescription, I will send it from all over the world in the future." Wang Lidong said.
, took out the prescription that had been prepared long ago.
"What medicine is missing?"
"Ucommia ulmoides."
“You can also buy Eucommia ulmoides here.”
"The effect here is too poor. We need 30 years of wild Eucommia ulmoides from Zhangjiajie."
Xu's father took the prescription and looked at it, "It's so particular. If you use the Eucommia ulmoides here, how effective will it be?"
Wang Lidong thought for a while and then said, "The effect is at most 30%."
Xu's mother was surprised and said, "Is it so different?"
Wang Lidong said, “Different places of origin lead to different medicinal properties.”
In the afternoon, the old couple took Wang Lidong for a walk around the neighborhood, getting familiar with the surrounding environment. They also went to sit at the houses of several neighbors with whom they had good relations. After dinner, Wang Lidong returned to his room.
I slept until dawn.
I looked at the time and it was already half past six.
After getting up, getting dressed, and washing up, I opened the door and listened to the noise. The whole family was still asleep.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! I came to the yard and started doing morning exercises.
When Xu's father woke up and was about to go downstairs to make breakfast, he found that the door to his son's room was open. He walked up and took a look and found that the room was empty. He went down to the first floor and walked to the yard and saw his son boxing. "Xiaoshan, what's wrong?"
If you don’t sleep a little longer, have you changed the bed and you can’t get used to it?”
Wang Lidong said, "No. I get up at this time every day. Dad, do you do exercise in the morning now?"
"Your mother and I used to go for a walk every morning when we got up. Ever since we had the little ancestor Xianxian, we are tired every day and have no energy to exercise." Father Xu said, suddenly noticing something different from usual.
, usually his head feels groggy when he wakes up, but today he is very energetic. He immediately told his son about his situation, "Xiaoshan, your decoction is really amazing."
"As long as it works."
"Xiao Shan, do you do Tai Chi?"
Wang Lidong held the bird's tail in his arms and said, "Health-preserving Tai Chi."
Xu's father had also practiced Tai Chi for a while before. After watching it, he found that it was a little different from the street products. "Xiaoshan, where did you learn this set of boxing?"
Wang Lidong said, "Classmate Longhushan taught me this."
Xu's father's eyes lit up and he quickly asked, "Is this the classmate who gave you the prescription?"
"right."
"Can it be told externally?"
Wang Lidong said, "My classmate didn't say we can't spread the word."
"Wait a minute, I'll call your mother." Xu's father said and ran into the house. After a while, the old couple came to the yard with the sleepy Xianxian in their arms.
"Today I will teach you the first three postures."
After a while, the little fairy shook her head and swung her legs, saying "hey hey haha" and having a great time.
In the next three days, the family drove around Melbourne, including Sovereign Hill gold rush town, steam train, Great Ocean Road, Penguin Island Museum, and art galleries.
Wang Lidong looked through the car window at a Qinlou restaurant called "Tiantian Xingxin". He flipped through the information and found that it was a listed company with 18 rooms. The rooms were very large and had many decorations. rz
The charge per room is AUD 180/hour, and if services are required, an additional AUD 90 will be charged.
Netizens' reviews are not cheap, but the service is very good. There are all kinds of regular ones from all over the world. I heard that they can also provide invoices.
Wang Lidong glanced at Xu's father who was driving. He held the steering wheel seriously and stared at the road ahead.
"Dad, where are we going now?"
“Go to Graffiti Alley”
It’s just an internet celebrity check-in place. It’s actually just a small alley. There are many colorful graffiti paintings on the wall. It’s eye-catching at first glance, but after a second glance, it’s just like that.
"There's nothing to see there, so I won't go there." Wang Lidong checked the time and saw it was almost half past five, so he suggested going to eat.
"Would you like to eat out tonight?"
"What to eat?"
Wang Lidong asked, "How about Huaiyang cuisine or Cantonese cuisine?"
Xu's mother said, "There is no authentic Huaiyang cuisine here, but there is an authentic Cantonese restaurant."
“Then let’s eat Cantonese food.”
A quarter of an hour later, the car stopped in front of a restaurant called "Fumanlou" and walked into the lobby. The business was very good and most of the tables were full.
90% of the guests are Chinese. Listening to the dialects from all over the world, you feel like you are out of time and space.
Xu’s mother introduced, “The owner of this restaurant is an authentic Cantonese and is also the chef of this restaurant. The food is very good and the price is affordable, so the business has been very good.
This person lives near us, I have contacted him just now and left a small private room for us."
The family followed the waiter into a small private room and ordered seven dishes and one soup. After the cold dishes were served, Wang Lidong picked up a piece of barbecued pork and tasted it. The taste was okay. If it was stored in the 1960s and 1970s, it would be level 7.
The level of the chef.
"Xiaoshan, how does it taste?"
"The taste is very good. The price is great value for money." Wang Lidong gave a thumbs up. When the meal was almost done, he discussed it with his parents. After playing all the fun things, he was going to do chemistry experiments tomorrow.
.
"It's only been three days, why don't we spend another two days? There are several nice towns nearby, including Fairy Town, Bendigo, and Apollo Bay. The scenery is all very good."
Wang Lidong said, "Next time, there will be more opportunities in the future."
The next day, before nine o'clock, Wang Lidong arrived at the gate of Mohina University. A young Chinese man in a black coat came forward, stretched out his hand and said, "Is this Mr. Xu Huanshan?"
Wang Lidong stretched out his hand and shook it, "Are you Mr. Liu from Citibank?"
He is now a VIP customer of Citibank, and this time he rented a laboratory through Citibank.
Mr. Liu smiled and said, "Mr. Xu, just call me Xiao Liu or Lawrence."
After the two exchanged pleasantries, he followed Xiao Liu to the chemistry laboratory. After giving some instructions, he handed the key to him, "Mr. Xu, when you are done using it, just give the key to the doorman."
Already."
"Okay. Thank you, Xiao Liu."
"You're welcome. This is my job. Goodbye."
After seeing off Xiao Liu, Wang Lidong looked around at the laboratory equipment, including the central table and fume hood. He opened the utensil cabinet and saw that many conical flasks were broken and the round-bottomed flasks were also scratched. He picked up one
After looking at it, the glass is very thin. Heidolph's rotary evaporator has manual lifting and lowering.
You get what you pay for, cheap stuff doesn’t mean good stuff, so just make do with it.
He ordered Tangyuan to take over all the electronic equipment in the laboratory, and after Tangyuan reported k, he started the experiment.
The main reason for the poor stability of blue fireworks is that the formula contains a large amount of copper ions and dyed phosphorus, and their storage requires very high dry and wet conditions in the environment.
Based on the calculations given by Tang Yuan, a brand new stabilizer was derived, which can make blue fireworks as stable as other gunpowders.
It took two full days, and after n attempts of failure, Wang Lidong finally succeeded in preparing a stabilizer called 'ptz', with a molecular formula and a molecular weight of white and slightly gray flaky crystals.
He worked non-stop and immediately prepared a small batch of 'blue fireworks' with 'ptz' stabilizer added, and then conducted low-pressure, high-altitude, low-temperature, thermal shock, moisture and high-temperature tests.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After struggling for a long time, looking at the test results, the ‘blue fireworks’ with stabilizer added are more stable than ordinary fireworks.
"Pah," Wang Lidong picked up the phone and kissed the glutinous rice balls, "Tangyuan, it's successful."
Tangyuan didn't meow, turned around, and pointed the fat pg at Wang Lidong. In the past two days, the two-legged beast scolded it miserably. The number of times it was scolded, it clearly remembered 16 times for stupid and 56 times for idiot.
'Fuck' exactly 199 times
Guys have dignity too!
Seeing Tang Yuan being playful, Wang Lidong hurriedly coaxed her, and Tang Yuan moved slightly pg
"After I return to Mingzhu this time, I will give you a luxurious house."
Tangyuan immediately turned around and said, "Boss, do you keep your word?"
Wang Lidong waved his hand proudly and said, "Your boss, when have I ever deceived you?"
Tangyuan rolled his eyes, as if he had never experienced this before, and immediately said excitedly, "Boss, I want a Sunway TaihuLight."
"Cough cough cough!"
Wang Lidong squirted the mineral water in his mouth all over the floor. Regardless of whether he had that much money, even if he had money, it would be difficult to buy it. "Tangyuan, how much money do we have in our account now?"
Tang Yuan said, "One minute ago, the total amount of all our accounts was Australian dollars,"
"As far as I know, the Sunway Taihu Light you want costs 1.8 billion Sihai coins. Our current total value plus one yuan is less than 200 million. In addition, we have to add venue fees and various decorations, which cost at least 20
100 million"
Tangyuan patted his chest and said, "It's only 2 billion, boss. I can make it in less than half a month."
"An old man once said that if you take too big a step, you will easily get hurt. Let's take it one step at a time. This time we go back." Wang Lidong thought for a while and then decided, "I'll help you get a job worth tens of millions first."
Seeing the non-negotiable tone on the boss's face, Tangyuan knew that there was no need to discuss the matter. Although there was a gap between it and his dream, it was much better than what he had now. He shouted, "Boss is great. I wish you good health."
Wang Lidong hurriedly interrupted, "Stop, stop, stop, you are not a female anchor, and I am not the big brother Tangyuan on the list. Clean up and clear all the data for these three days."
After cleaning the laboratory and confirming that nothing was left behind, Wang Lidong happily closed the laboratory door, went to the guard room, and handed the key to the old man with glasses who guarded the door.
On the way back, he called the bank's customer service manager, Xiao Liu, and said, "Xiao Liu, if you are free this afternoon, please come to my house. I want to apply for an invention patent and also register a fireworks company.
"
Xiao Liu asked, "Okay, Mr. Xu. At one o'clock in the afternoon, can you take a look?"
Wang Lidong said, "Okay."
Xiao Liu, 'Okay, Mr. Xu, see you at one o'clock in the afternoon.'
