Chapter 1131 - Land Reclamation, Farming, and Steelmaking (2/2)

Jiang Chen asked, “What do you think is there?”

Kelvin shook his head helplessly. “I don’t know; maybe it’s really an alien city. But I hope it’s the grave of an alien or a fossil. If there are living Martians, then it will absolutely be a disaster for our colony.”

Jiang Chen didn’t know if it would be a blessing or curse to discover relics of “aliens”. On the one hand, he was excited to see what the colonists could discover, but on the other, he was worried if this would bring disaster to the Mars Colony.

Just when Jiang Chen felt conflicted, he suddenly remembered that maybe someone could give him the answer.

With a stomach full of questions, he took the space elevator back to the ground the next day.

Coro University.

Unlike third-rate universities not much better than community colleges, Coro University was now a world-class institution. Whether in academia or enterprise, the university began to grow its sphere of influence. Of course, their influence was mainly reflected in studies of aerospace, new energy, and materials science. As for other professions…

They weren’t worth mentioning.

When the university was first established, Jiang Chen promised the dean to teach an elective course called Cosmology. It also satisfied his desire to become a university professor. But since he pulled Hawking from his wheelchair, his short-lived interest disappeared and he gave the job to Hawking.

On the shadowy path among the tall trees, many naïve faces traversed between classes. Students with different skin colors chatted with their friends talking about girls, clubs, professors, where to chill next…

Because it was a Saturday, the campus as quieter than normal. Whenever this happened, the students often chose to take a stroll in the downtown area or buy boat tickets for a day trip to Penglai City.

Only hard-working students or students taking public electives stayed in the building.

Jiang Chen quietly visited the campus without catching any attention. He made a phone call with Rafael Leif and learned that Hawking was in class, so he drove straight to the school building.

After waiting for the class to end, Jiang Chen found Hawking, who had just exited the auditorium.

Hawking was surprised by the unexpected visitor as he paused.

“…a rare guest.”

Jiang Chen made a helpless expression. He was about to speak before Hawking said first, “I guess you have something to ask me?”

This time, Jiang Chen paused. He didn’t expect the genius Hawking to have the ability to read minds.

“Yes, there’s a small problem at work… I don’t know if this is a convenient time for you?”

“Of course? If it’s inconvenient, I don’t know how many scholars would be more than willing to have the opportunity to answer questions from the president,” Hawking said good-naturedly, pulling Jiang Chen to the side. “It’s lunchtime, so let’s talk as we go. The cafeteria at the East Building is quite good—the pancakes there are delicious. I highly recommend them.”

Now that class was over, many students noticed the two people at the door. After they recognized Jiang Chen, some people even took out their phones. He would be surrounded.

Jiang Chen didn’t have time to learn about the enthusiasm of university students for the time being, so he quickly followed Hawking and left the building.
