Chapter 178 Unless Food and Lodging are Provided
"Actually, they are just some tests on physical fitness. Considering your condition, Comrade Chen Jue, you should be able to pass it very smoothly. It's just a matter of going through the process." Liu Chengdong said.
"Passed the test? Not body research like blood drawing or biopsy?" Chen Jue glanced at the other party and said.
"No, no! There is absolutely no such thing!"
"Our research institute is very formal and is considered the best among current flower growers. The tests are only for some physical exercises and we will never do anything harmful to you." Liu Chengdong shook his head like a rattle and hurriedly explained.
Chen Jue also saw some sincerity in the other party. With his current divine connection after the perfection of [Small and Large Circulations], he could basically see through a person's good and evil thoughts as long as he was not blocked by the mind like the Buddha's bones and relics.
He could see the spiritual imprints of gentleness, kindness and sincerity in Liu Chengdong, which was why Chen Jue felt at ease and bold enough to let this person into his house.
After all, many things in Chen Jue's room were too shocking to be placed outside, such as the pair of dumbbells and the nutritional supplements that filled every corner of the room.
"Do I need to sign a confidentiality agreement to go for the test?" Chen Jue continued to ask.
"Need not!"
"That kind of thing is only to restrict the internal personnel of our institute to prevent some data from being leaked. You are an invited tester, so you don't need to sign that kind of thing. And with your status, these things at this level cannot restrict you."
"If you accept the invitation, I can arrange for the staff to transfer the money to you right away. The environment in the research base is very good, and food and accommodation are provided. We have hired professional chefs who specialize in the eight major cuisines, as well as nutritional supplements . We guarantee that you will have as much as you want, and we can even provide you with a higher quality version."
"Oh, right! There are also some lost martial arts and qigong, many of which are out-of-print and ancient books that cannot be found on the market. We can even provide them to you in our research base for some scientific research papers related to the body!" Liu Chengdong answered truthfully.
"The conditions are so good?" Chen Jue's heart moved. Money didn't matter. The most important thing was that the information mentioned by the other party aroused Chen Jue's interest.
After all, when he was looking inward at the universe in his body before, Chen Jue could clearly feel that his own knowledge reserves were insufficient, and the information in the folk martial arts exchange group he had joined before mostly involved boxing, martial arts and the classics of the three religions. Although there were some unverified exercises, there was no theoretical knowledge at the microscopic level of the body.
Liu Chengdong happened to bring this opportunity, so Chen Jue naturally would not miss it. He nodded and said, "Well... OK! Director Liu, since you have said this, I will take part in this test."
"You agreed? That's great! Comrade Chen Jue, I promise that this trip will be worthwhile for you!" Liu Chengdong said as he took out his mobile phone and sent out a few messages.
As for Chen Jue, he went upstairs to pack his luggage, only to see his cell phone vibrate and discover that his bank card had received a deposit .
"This efficiency... is quite impressive!" Chen Jue took a look at the text message. Although the money was not much and could not compare to the Hongmu Group's wealth, it was at least sincere.
…
After packing his backpack, he and Liu Chengdong got into the jeep driven by Political Commissar Yao.
The car did not go to the high-speed rail station in An County or the airport in Wen City, but instead went to a small internal airport, where Chen Jue saw a Fat Kun transport plane that he had seen on the Internet before.
"Take this?" After having taken several luxurious private jet rides, Chen Jue felt that the steel beast in front of him looked like a real plane. The status of this XX Research Institute was even higher than he had imagined.
"right!"
"The institute has made special arrangements to pick you up, Comrade Chen Jue." Liu Chengdong said with a smile and took Chen Jue onto the transport plane.
After that, we flew all the way for more than 2 hours and the plane landed in a plateau area.
After getting off the plane, Chen Jue was picked up by a special car and followed Liu Chengdong to the XX Institute.
It is called a research institute, but in fact it is a base with a very large area, and there are armed checkpoints everywhere.
After entering the base, Liu Chengdong first took Chen Jue to a simply decorated dormitory to put his luggage, and then invited Chen Jue to have lunch in the cafeteria inside the base.
It’s true that the food here is really delicious and tasty, much better than the noodles Chen Jue makes at home.
After eating and resting in the room for a while, Liu Chengdong took Chen Jue to the reading room of the base. Just as he said, many books and materials on martial arts and qigong that were lost or burned in the old times could be found here, but they were all photocopies. The originals were probably collected.
In addition, Chen Jue also saw a professional book search computer in the reading room. The books inside covered many fields, including some SCI journal papers, some internal research papers that were not published externally, etc.
"Comrade Chen Jue, the reading room is open 24 hours a day. You can come anytime if you want to read a book."
"If you don't want to come in person, you can also download the APP and watch it on your mobile phone when you return to your room. I have opened the permissions for your ID." Liu Chengdong introduced.
“It’s quite convenient!”
"Aren't you afraid of your information being leaked?" Chen Jue asked after downloading the APP and raising his phone.
"No! A special communication channel has been set up in the base. There are only incoming signals. It is basically impossible to send them out. Of course, it will not affect your contact with the outside world."
"The staff at the base are all human beings. They are flesh and blood and need to communicate with their family and friends. These things will not be banned." Liu Chengdong explained with a smile.
Chen Jue nodded, thinking that this research institute was quite humane. He followed the other party and talked while walking to the preliminary testing site.
There was a row of equipment in the venue that had never been seen by the outside world. Except for one force measuring machine that looked familiar, Chen Jue couldn't name the other equipment.
Liu Chengdong introduced Chen Jue while calling several staff members in the testing area: "Everyone, please pay attention. This is Comrade Chen Jue who was invited to take the test. He is currently a first-level candidate."
"After the test, it will even be listed as a special grade. Adjust the machines and equipment properly, don't let them fail at the critical moment!"
"And send a few sets of nutritional supplements. Comrade Chen Jue needs to replenish his energy after the test."
Upon hearing this, several staff members immediately took full alert and began to run the machine testing program in the training ground step by step.
Chen Jue took the test form that Liu Chengdong brought over and took a look at it. Except for his name on the test form, the rest of the form was blank.
"Director Liu, which one should I test first?" Chen Jue asked curiously.
"Well... let me see... let me test this electric swivel chair with vestibular function first!"
