Zhao Xiaoer has been very busy recently.

Since he won the Tang Dynasty Royal Science and Technology Award, he has had a lot of social engagements.

It’s almost a week before he has time to have time to have dinner with Xu Qiao.

"Aren't you talking a while ago about how to borrow some money from the Tang Dynasty Royal Money House?

Why do you come to Dowde to treat me to dinner now?”

Xu Qiao is looking for a waiter's childhood friend, so he speaks very casually with each other, without any burden, and does not need to think too much, and says whatever he thinks.

"I asked you Hongfu to earn some extra money."

Xu Qiao said in a good mood.

"Don't be sarcastic when speaking. I just won the Tang Dynasty Royal Science and Technology Award for Interpretation. I have won this award, so there is nothing to be proud of."

Zhao Xiaoer raised his head arrogantly.

The face seemed to be saying, "Praise me, come and praise me."

"I'm not sarcastic, what I'm saying is a fact."

Xu Qiao poured Zhao Xiaoer a glass of wine a little bitch.

"What facts do you have to do with me if you make money?

Are you doing bad things under the name of Guanshishan Academy Steam Engine Research Institute?

That's not possible. The academy is the academy, and I, Zhao Xiaoer, are Zhao Xiaoer.

If you really have difficulties and the Tang Dynasty Royal Money Bank refuses to lend you money, I can lend you a little.

Anyway, I just got the prize for the Tang Dynasty Royal Science and Technology Award, so there is no special place to use money for the time being."

Zhao Xiaoer is still very generous when facing his friends.

He remembered very much that one year during the Chinese New Year, he was about to freeze to death. Xu Qiao begged for a steamed bun on the street to make him come alive.

"Of course it's related. Don't worry, when did I have the idea of ​​your Steam Engine Research Institute of Guanshishan Academy?

Do I have the courage?

Besides, even if I want to make an idea, others won’t give me a chance.”

Xu Qiao was a little aggrieved and filled himself with fine wine.

"What the hell is going on? Are you still short of money now?"

"No shortage of money! Didn't I just say it? I've earned some money by asking you Hongfu!"

After Xu Qiao said this, he raised his glass and ran into Zhao Xiaoer.

"This is the thing. Didn't you win the Tang Dynasty Royal Science and Technology Award? I happened to bet on the gambling house in advance and you would win the award.

So when you really win the award, the money I bet on immediately changed to ten, and five hundred guan will become five thousand guan.”

Xu Qiao did not keep it in hiding. After drinking a glass of wine, he briefly explained the situation to Zhao Xiaoer.

"Five thousand guan of money? Do you call this small money?"

Zhao Xiaoer looked at his friend in amazement.

Can you still make money like this?

I also earned 5,000 stagnants of money in one go!

"Hehe! Lucky, I'm lucky! Compared with those rich people, my five thousand stagnant money is just a small amount of money."

Xu Qiao's face was about to burst into laughter.

He didn't dare to promote this good news casually. Zhao Xiaoer was obviously a very good person to show off.

He will definitely not borrow money from himself, nor will he spread the word everywhere.

"Didn't you say you wanted to borrow money from the Tang Dynasty Royal Money House some time ago?

I also asked me to help you with guarantees, why do you have money to gamble now?

If you lose this bet, won’t you have nothing left?”

Zhao Xiaoer never gambles.

But Xu Qiao is the opposite of him.

This is often the source of quarrel between two people.

"Most of my five hundred stagnant money was borrowed from the Tang Dynasty Royal Money House.

It was originally intended to be used to expand the scale of the workshop, but it happened to be awarded by the Royal Science and Technology Awards of the Tang Dynasty.

That old man launched a new game of betting. I think this is giving me money, so I couldn't help but take action."

Xu Qiao's view made Zhao Xiaoer speechless.

"Send you money? Do you think people open a gambling shop to give you money? Where do you get the confidence?"

"You are an important figure in the Steam Engine Research Institute of Guanshishan Academy, and have published many papers over the years.

Then haven't you been researching that light recently?

You said that was an epoch-making product.

He also said that it was a product that even His Highness the King of Chu was very optimistic about.

Isn’t it natural for such a product to win the Tang Dynasty Royal Science and Technology Award for Interpretation?”

After Xu Qiao said this reason, Zhao Xiaoer was speechless.

Just because I was studying electric lights, I dared to bet on winning the Tang Dynasty Royal Science and Technology Award?

Who gave him the courage?

Although there has been some progress in the research on electric lamps, no very suitable filaments have been found so far. Electric lamps are just products that stay in the laboratory.

He never thought that such a product would win the Tang Dynasty Royal Science and Technology Award so quickly.

Now Xu Qiao not only believes it, but also bet on all his worth.

I have nothing to say about this confidence.

"How about it, now you believe I'm not messing around, right?

I have said it before, and now I don’t want to go to the gambling house easily.

This time I really thought that someone was giving me money, so I took a gamble.

As a result, you also saw that my five hundred guan money became five thousand guan money.

Not only did I have money to expand the workshop, I could also recruit some craftsmen to be responsible for the research on new technologies.

Maybe in a few years, my workshop will be listed on the Datang Stock Exchange.

By then, my brother, I will also be a big business with a wealthy family.”

Xu Qiao continued to fall and describe his great achievements there.

And Zhao Xiaoer really doesn't know what to say.

Who made me really win the Tang Dynasty Royal Science and Technology Award for Interpretation?

Although the reason for this award is the research results related to heat conduction, it has nothing to do with electric lights.

But what's the point of saying this now?

Anyway, after all, Xu Qiao believes that he can win the award, and then he really won the award.

The truth is so simple.

"Are you ready to study new technologies? Do you have a certain research direction?"

After eating several bites of food, Zhao Xiaoer quickly changed the topic.

If he continues like this, he feels that his little heart can't stand it anymore.

"I haven't thought about this yet. I'll ask you out for dinner today. In addition to celebrating you, I also want to listen to your suggestions.

You are the authority in this regard."

Zhao Xiaoer told his true thoughts without hiding them at all.

Anyway, the two of them know the truth, so there is no need to hide it.

"Now there are many large and small workshops in the workshop city that are very active in researching new technologies.

Whether it is the development of rubber workshops, the research on engine-related technologies, or the smelting and processing of various new metals.

These are all promising things.

It is hard to say which one is the easiest to achieve results and which one has the highest input-output ratio.”

When it comes to real money investment, Zhao Xiaoer is still very cautious.

Although the money invested is not his, it has nothing to do with him whether he makes money or loses money.
