Chapter 1098: Chapter 1095: Handle with Caution! A National Treasure!

"Mr. Huang, this information is really important, you must find a way to get it!" Director Ding said resolutely.

"I’ll do my best!" Huang Qiyang was speechless inside. Where on earth did Luofeng get this material from? Someone at Ding Yigang’s level was this excited?

Huang Qiyang thought of the Shen Suansi from Luofeng’s Zhongyi Tang.

This was a mysterious hacker.

Could it be him?

On Luofeng’s side, he quickly saw the incoming call from Huang Qiyang and hung up directly.

Then he sent a message through the secure software.

Luofeng: I’m in the dorm, it’s inconvenient, wait a bit!

Huang Qiyang: Alright.

Luofeng stood up, glanced at a few roommates, and said, "Sons, your old man’s going to the supermarket, what do you want me to bring back?"

Li Hu spoke first, "Two bottles of Red Bull, a pack of beef jerky, and get some boneless chicken feet while you’re at it!"

WangGui said, "Instant noodles and coffee!"

Zhang Long said, "I want instant noodles too, just not the pickled vegetable flavor, anything else is fine! And a Cayman Holding Corp green tea!"

"I can’t remember all that, just send it to me on WeChat, and transfer the money while you’re at it!" Luofeng said with a smile.

Li Hu joked and made complaints, "No way, Brother Feng, you’re actually asking us for money?"

"Or what?" Luofeng laughed.

The three of them all started making complaints together.

But they didn’t actually want Luofeng to treat them; instead, they liked his attitude of taking the initiative to accept money.

After all, treating you to a meal is treating you to a meal.

It doesn’t mean he has to bring you stuff for free, right?

After leaving the dorm, seeing that everyone had sent the money, Luofeng collected the payments one by one.

He put on his headphones and called Huang Qiyang via voice on the secure software.

"Where did you get the drawings you just sent?" Huang Qiyang asked directly.

"Take a guess?"

"Shen Suansi stole them?" Huang Qiyang asked.

"What do you mean stole?" Luofeng made complaints.

"Is the material in your hands?" Huang Qiyang asked.

Anyway, in Huang Qiyang’s mind, this material was definitely stolen by Shen Suansi.

Otherwise, did Luofeng bring a team to research it himself?

Sorry, at this level of research, no matter how incredible Luofeng was, it was impossible.

"Of course it’s in my hands!" Luofeng said.

"Then send me the complete set of materials?" said Huang Qiyang.

"Sure."

"You’re being this generous?" Huang Qiyang grew wary.

"Of course, I’ll send it right away!" Luofeng nodded.

Inside, Luofeng was secretly laughing. When he contacted Huang Qiyang, he already knew they’d definitely ask for the full set of plans.

But in reality, this was the trap Luofeng had dug.

Not only was he the king of grabbing a bargain, he was also the King of shifting blame.

What he was best at was shifting blame.

And this time, it was actually Huang Qiyang who miscalculated—this wasn’t stolen by Shen Suansi, it was a reward from the system.

But the system didn’t conjure it up out of thin air either; it had a specific source.

So this set of materials could bring trouble to Luofeng, which was why he dumped the blame on Huang Qiyang.

He’d wait for him to take care of the trouble, and then come back to enjoy the fruits of victory.

At this moment, Huang Qiyang was pondering what exactly was behind Luofeng being so generous.

He didn’t even name any conditions?

"Looks like there’s something wrong with this material?" Huang Qiyang guessed to himself.

But after thinking it over, for information like this, even if there was a problem, they still had to take it.

This was an open Conspiracy—knowing full well there were huge issues, they still couldn’t walk away.

"Alright, the material’s been sent! I’m hanging up now!" Luofeng had already arrived at the campus mini-mart; there were quite a few students inside, so it wasn’t suitable to keep talking.

"Got it!" said Huang Qiyang.

After the call ended, he immediately printed out the materials that Luofeng had sent, then... he originally wanted to send someone to deliver them, but after thinking about it, decided to personally deliver them to the Daxia High Energy Physics Research Institute.

About half an hour later...

"Director Ding, the information you wanted is here!" Huang Qiyang found Ding Yigang and handed him the materials.

Ding Yigang immediately started looking through them. He first skimmed them to get a general idea, then began reading carefully.

Roughly half an hour later, he let out a sigh. "This material should be from Sakura, and if nothing unexpected happened, it should be from Sakura Electric Power Company!"

Inside, Huang Qiyang’s heart thumped, and he said to himself, "No wonder that guy was so generous!"

So now that this material had landed in their hands, it had nothing to do with Luofeng anymore.

Luofeng’s Conspiracy was really shameless.

No, this was an open scheme!

Daxia couldn’t possibly turn down something this good, right?

"How valuable is this material?" asked Huang Qiyang.

"I don’t think you know much about the Hangbo Pile, do you?" said Ding Yigang.

Huang Qiyang gave him a speechless look. If he knew, would he be asking?

"What is it?" asked Huang Qiyang.

"I’ve said before, the Hangbo Pile is a high-end application scheme of fourth-generation nuclear power plants. Let me first explain our current nuclear power plant situation." said Ding Yigang.

Huang Qiyang nodded.

What followed was a whole series of technical explanations.

Huang Qiyang only half understood.

"By using Hangbo Pile technology, we can massively increase the utilization efficiency of uranium fuel, from 0.72 percent up to more than 70 percent!"

Hearing this, Huang Qiyang was stunned. "That’s a hundredfold increase?"

"No, no, no, not necessarily, and it could be even more!" said Ding Yigang.

"Mr. Huang, imagine this: the nuclear fuel demand for a nuclear power plant drops to one percent of what it used to be, the operating period goes from a few months to a year or two, up to several decades or even a hundred years, and it’s a one-and-done setup. What kind of change do you think that would bring?" said Ding Yigang. "In the nuclear power field, nuclear fusion is still something illusory; even fifty years from now there won’t be any progress. But the Hangbo Pile is nowhere near as difficult as nuclear fusion!"

There’s a difference between nuclear fusion and nuclear fission.

Nuclear fission is one nucleus splitting into two or more; nuclear fusion is two or more nuclei combining into one. In terms of quantity, one is going from less to more, the other from more to less.

The energy they produce is different: while nuclear fission can generate enormous energy, it’s still far less than nuclear fusion. Nuclear fusion requires temperatures close to one hundred million degrees; on Earth, such temperatures can be reached during a nuclear explosion.

But the reserves of nuclear fuel for fission are extremely limited. Not only does it generate intense radiation that harms the human body, its waste remains hazardous for thousands of years and is very difficult to deal with.

By contrast, nuclear fusion produces much less radiation, and creates new, heavier nuclei (such as fluorine). Neutrons have relatively large mass, but since they carry no charge, they can escape the pull of the nucleus during collisions and be released; the massive release of electrons and neutrons manifests as an enormous energy output.

One is a source of radiation that causes harm for thousands of years; the other is a clean energy source.

But as mentioned earlier, there will be no real progress in nuclear fusion even fifty years from now.

Basically, the moon in the sky is something you can’t see or touch, but the Hangbo Pile right now is truly a national strategic asset.

"So with this material, can we build a Hangbo Pile nuclear power plant?" asked Huang Qiyang.
