"Brother Tang, we're here to pick you up. ”

After the plane landed at the airport, Tang Ming got off the plane, walked to the exit with his suitcase, and saw the person sent by Pei Yuanping to pick him up.

"Why did you two come and pick me up?"

Tang Ming was very surprised to see Xu Zhiyuan and Feng Fatzi coming to pick him up.

Feng Fatzi said: "Brother Tang, Zhiyuan and I have changed majors, Professor Pei said, when we graduate from our senior year, he will recruit us as graduate students." ”

Tang Ming was dizzy and asked in disbelief: "This is okay, is it really fake?"

Feng Fatzi wanted to say something, Xu Zhiyuan preemptively said: "Brother Tang, don't listen to the fat man's nonsense, there is no such thing at all, Professor Pei and they don't have time to do experiments before we let us come and pick you up." ”

"Fatty, you dare to lie to me. Tang Ming pretended to be angry and stared at Fat Feng, in fact, he was not angry at all, but felt that Fat Feng was very interesting.

Feng Fatzi sneered and said, "Brother Tang, don't be angry, Zhiyuan really wants to change majors, but it hasn't been recognized by Professor Pei yet." ”

After listening to this, Tang Ming looked at Xu Zhiyuan and asked, "Why do you want to change majors?"

Xu Zhiyuan said: "I feel that the finance major is boring, I don't like this major very much, it was my parents who forced me to choose this major, otherwise I would not have chosen this major, I went to Professor Pei's laboratory a few times, I felt that botany was very interesting, so I wanted to transfer to botany." ”

Tang Ming thought for a moment and said, "If it's not a whim, I can help you talk to Professor Pei." ”

Xu Zhiyuan hurriedly said: "I really like the botany major, and now I am studying on my own. ”

Tang Ming said: "Okay, I'll help you talk to Professor Pei, I hope you don't regret it in the future." ”

Xu Zhiyuan knew that Tang Ming sponsored Professor Pei's laboratory, and knew that Tang Ming had the ability to influence Professor Pei, so he was very happy in his heart, and hurriedly said, "Thank you, Brother Tang." ”

Tang Ming said: "You're welcome. ”

Feng Fatzi squeezed his eyes at Xu Zhiyuan, and Xu Zhiyuan gave him a look and warned him not to talk nonsense.

Tang Ming saw their small actions, but he didn't care, Xu Zhiyuan had a sense of justice, Feng Fatzi was smart, and Tang Ming had a good impression of them.

However, Tang Ming looked at Feng Fatzi and joked with a smile: "Fatty, didn't you just say that you also want to transfer to the botany major, let me help you also talk to Professor Pei, just with Zhiyuan." ”

Feng Fatzi hurriedly shook his head and said, "Brother Tang, no need, it's too troublesome." ”

Tang Ming said: "It's not troublesome, what's the trouble, in a word, on this little thing, Professor Pei will still give me some face." ”

Feng Fatzi was about to cry and said, "Brother Tang, I really don't need it, I still like my current major." ”

Tang Ming said: "I really don't need to, fatty, you don't have to be so polite to me." ”

Feng Fatzi shook his head vigorously and said, "I really don't need it, Brother Tang, I'm not polite, I really don't want to change majors." ”

"Alright then, just forget it. Tang Ming stopped teasing him and stopped the topic.

"Tang Ming, I'll help you carry the box. Feng Fatzi wiped the sweat from his head and reached out to take the box in Tang Ming's hand.

Tang Ming was not polite and handed him the box.

They walked out of the airport and found a GMC van in the parking lot.

Tang Ming looked at the car and asked, "This is not your car, is it?" ”

Xu Zhiyuan said: "This is Professor Pei's car, and he specially asked us to drive this car to pick you up." ”

"Hmm. Tang Ming nodded and said, "Let's go, Professor Pei, they should be in a hurry." ”

Tang Ming and Feng Fatzi sat in the back, Xu Zhiyuan sat in the front and drove, they chatted while walking, chatted all the way, and soon arrived at the University of Sydney.

Xu Zhiyuan drove the car to a three-story building and stopped, Tang Ming got out of the car and saw a sign hanging on the small building, which said Pei Yuanping Botany Laboratory.

He didn't expect Pei Yuanping to actually name the laboratory after himself, but it didn't feel strange to think that many laboratories did this.

Xu Zhiyuan said: "Brother Tang, let's go in." ”

"Good. Tang Ming agreed, and walked to the laboratory, Xu Zhiyuan and Feng Fatzi followed him.

Xu Zhiyuan introduced to Tang Ming while walking: "Brother Tang, this small building belongs to Professor Pei's laboratory, with a usable area of about three or four thousand square meters, and there are plant slice room, plant herbarium room, cytology laboratory, molecular biology laboratory, tissue culture room, microscopic camera room and other experimental rooms, and the equipment in the laboratory is the most advanced in the world, I heard my brother say that the equipment here is worth tens of millions of Australian dollars, and it is the equipment that Professor Pei has saved over the years......

"Mr. Tang, I'm sorry, the experiment is too busy, I don't have time to pick you up, so I can only ask the two children to pick you up. ”

They didn't go far before they saw Pei Yuanping, and when he saw Tang Ming, he immediately apologized to Tang Ming.

Tang Ming smiled: "It's okay, Professor Pei doesn't have to be polite, I won't mind." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Tang, for your understanding. Pei Yuanping said politely again, and then said: " This time, I invited Mr. Tang to come over, because we have a major discovery, we found a new substance in the bark of the golden tree, this substance I call it golden alcohol, of course, this is not the final name of this substance, the name is still left to Mr. Tang to do it himself, as for why I call this substance, because this substance is similar to paclitaxel, it is found in a kind of tree, and it has not been found in other places, why the golden tree exudes a unique fragrance, is because there is this substance in it... …”

"Professor Pei, you mean that there is this substance called golden alcohol not only in the bark of the tree, but also in the trunk of the tree. ”

Before Pei Yuanping could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Tang Ming, he didn't dwell on the name of this substance, but asked another question.

Pei Yuanping said: "Yes, we have also extracted this substance from the trunk of the Golden Tree, but the content in the trunk is much lower, less than one percent of the bark. ”

"Understood. Tang Ming nodded and continued to ask, "Professor Pei, what is the effect of this substance other than the fragrance exuded by the Golden Tree?" ”

Pei Yuanping said with a smile: "There are many functions of this species, for example, we used to guess that the bark of the golden tree can treat insomnia, dreaminess, neurasthenia and other abilities, all of which are determined by this substance. ”

"I see. Tang Ming was very excited, these things were just speculations before, and there was no evidence to prove it, but now that this substance has been discovered, even if there is a theoretical basis, no one will question the efficacy of the bark of the Golden Tree in the future.
