Volume 3 Chapter 106 The Meaning of the Existence of the Xiangxi Stone Frog (Bao 3)
Soon, Li Sheng came out of the space. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info he packed up and drove to the lab in a helicopter, this time with a red bucket with a lid.
He went straight to Feng Xiaoting's office. I found that the door was closed, and no one answered when I knocked. He didn't know where Feng Xiaoting was doing the experiment, so he had to call him.
A few minutes later, Feng Xiaoting appeared in the corridor dressed like a doctor, and he came over to Li Sheng and said, "Boss, why are you here?" ”
Li Sheng said: "Let's go inside and say. ”
Feng Xiaoting took out the key to open the door and let Li Sheng in, only then did he find that Li Sheng was still carrying a bucket in his hand, and asked, "Is there something new to analyze this time?" He walked in and closed the door.
Li Sheng said: "Remember the last time I asked you to analyze the reason for Tia's wound healing? ”
Feng Xiaoting stood still, looked at the bucket that had been placed on the ground, and asked, "This is?" He knew that if it weren't for new clues or evidence, Li Sheng wouldn't have asked him about this matter again.
Li Sheng nodded and said seriously, "That's right." ”
Feng Xiaoting squatted down, but did not open the lid of the bucket, and asked, "What is this?" ”
"A kind of frog." Li Sheng opened the lid of the bucket and searched for a while among the dozen or so stone frogs, finding the one that he had almost disemboweled.
He turned the stone frog to Feng Xiaoting and said, "Do you see the pink line on it?" This is the knife cut I broke last night. As a result, after an hour, the opening was much smaller. And this morning it turned out like this. ”
He paused, stretched out the index finger of his left hand, and said, "Here, I cut the wound myself last night, and then scratched the cut frog meat a few times." Although the wound is not deep in the first place, it is impossible to heal completely overnight. ”
Feng Xiaoting saw that there was indeed a small wound on his index finger, and the dead skin was formed. He took a deep breath and asked, "I understand what to do." I'll be able to give you a definite answer in two days. However, it can only be confirmed whether the body fluids of the frog have the effect of speeding up the healing of wounds. The specific effect may need more experimental verification. ”
Li Sheng nodded and said, "If you find other effects, it's best to do a side effect experiment as well." ”
Feng Xiaoting was a little excited. If such a thing is really discovered, it will be of great medical significance. Once it can really be applied to clinical practice, whether it is internal bleeding or trauma, it can have a great effect. And for biological experiments, it also has great scientific implications.
He was now glad he had been forced to stay on the Silent Farm. If it was somewhere else, he might never have access to them.
He looked at the stone frog in the bucket, like a pervert seeing a beautiful woman stripped naked. He didn't look up and said, "I'll make a thorough experimental plan." But are there many of these frogs? I'm talking about, is there anything left when this frog runs out? ”
"I'm afraid no one else has one. But I can guarantee that you have enough ingredients here. Also, I'm going to artificially raise some on the farm. So when it comes to experimental materials, you can rest assured. ”
"That's good. I'll be watching this experiment myself. Boss, you can rest assured. ”
Since Feng Xiaoting gave a guarantee, and seeing that he was eager to go to the experimental breeding immediately, Li Sheng did not stay longer.
Next, Li Sheng did not stop entering the space to explore deeply because he had found a reason to promote wound healing. However, he didn't stay in the space all day long, usually going in for half a day and then staying on the farm for half a day.
The scope of his exploration in space was relatively blind at first, and he went wherever he wanted. But then he mainly explored tropical and subtropical regions. Because most of the biological resources that leave this range cannot be transplanted to the farm, it is not of much use to find them.
However, during the time he wandered around, he still found a lot of good things. For example, a large piece of mutton fat jade the size of a dinner table. A wild ginseng forest was also found. Although it is an exaggeration to call it a forest, there are indeed a lot of ginseng in the hilly forest. Sometimes you can find one plant every few steps.
He didn't dig much, but when he saw that the stems and leaves were thicker, he dug them out. He did not dig ginseng with a shovel, but directly controlled the water on the surface to wrap all the roots of ginseng, and then pulled out the whole ginseng. That way, not even a single ginseng will be left in the ground.
He doesn't know what to read, he dug it out anyway, and it's no different for ten years and a hundred years. He probably dug up more than 100 beads, but found nothing of value, and then dug out a few smaller ones and left. As a result, after the small ones were transplanted, the hot leaves fell off within a few days, and it was obvious that they could not adapt to this climate.
After learning a lot of lessons, he searched for a low-temperature climate zone that did not exceed the subtropics. Maybe the animals are okay, but the plants, he doesn't feel that the things in the space can adapt better than the real world. And the other half day he stayed on the farm to deal with his work.
For example, the Xiangxi roses and Xiangxi mulberry trees are being planted. In addition, he will direct the construction of a breeding farm for Xiangxi stone frogs. Because this farm needs Xiangxi water, it can only be built next to the cultivated land where Xiangxi water flows.
Because of the Xiangxi water, Li Sheng is not worried that the source of Xiangxi stone frogs will flow out, and in the future, Xiangxi stone frogs can only be cultivated in Silent Farm.
If it's just for the sale of stone frogs, it doesn't matter if you raise more or less. But because the stone frog may be a medicinal ingredient to extract and accelerate the healing of trauma, he needs to build more breeding ponds.
In order to save land, he asked the construction team to build the farm into a three-story farm, although that would slow down the construction and increase the cost of building the building. But he can afford to wait, and he has that money. Although Feng Xiaoting confirmed that the body fluids of the stone frog do have a natural effect on accelerating the metabolism of cells, it will take a certain amount of time to fully understand this stone frog. A lot of work is also needed to extract the active ingredients from it.
In the end, if the active ingredients in the body of the stone frog can be extracted, it will take a long time to test it before it can be made into a prescription drug. Otherwise, it will not be available for sale at all. So this is another development project that belongs to the future like roses and mulberry trees, not the current one.
When the paclitaxel fruit is finally mostly ripe. Li Sheng arranged for workers to pick the fruit. It is also a manual job that requires a lot of manpower. These men were also recruited by Cabocro women.
When he heard that the paclitaxel fruit was finally ready to be picked, Fernando came again, and Chen Bo and Luo Zheng also came on the same day.
They arrived at the farm separately after less than half an hour, and Li Sheng also went to pick them up.
Chen Bo and Luo Zheng arrived late, and Li Sheng and Fernando went to the airport to pick them up. The weather at the end of September was very hot. Although it is not summer, there is not a single cloud in the arid rainforest, and the temperature can even reach 367 degrees under the sun. Even an all-terrain vehicle with shade in such weather will inevitably sweat.
So Li Sheng: They drove an air-conditioned pickup truck to pick up people.
After the four of them got on the pickup, Luo Zheng first asked: "Are we going to the plantation?" "He's talking about paclitaxel plantations.
Li Sheng lit the fire and drove and replied, "No, there is nothing beautiful about picking fruits." Let's go see the juicing workshop. ”
The active ingredients of paclitaxel fruit are all in the juice. The fruit has a moisture content of more than 70%, which means that about 30% is dry matter. These things are useless things.
This time, he estimates that he will be able to produce 500 to 600 tons of fruit, and these fruits are all brown fruits with a high paclitaxel content. So there were a lot of big mistakes in his judgment before. Before, he thought that the red and brown fruits would be about half, so he thought that he could produce hundreds of kilograms of paclitaxel. But now it looks like production should be about doubled.
Li Sheng drove the car to a wooden house that was not very large and got out of the car.
Luo Zheng also got out of the car, and when he saw the wooden house in front of him, he felt a little strange: "You use the wooden house as a factory?" ”
Li Sheng said with a smile: "These wooden houses were built before. Later, the engineering team was allowed to build some buildings, and the workers no longer lived in these wooden houses. I didn't want to waste it, so I put these wooden houses to use. ”
In fact, many of the wooden houses on the farm, except for the office area, have been used as workshops. For example, rice rolling machines and mills are using these wooden houses.
All four got out of the car, and Li Sheng walked them in. The door to the wooden house was closed, but a strong smell could be smelled outside the door. Li Sheng pushed open the door and walked in.
There was air conditioning, but only a worker wearing a mask was operating it.
Seeing Li Sheng's voice as a worker, he was very vague: "Boss, you are here." ”
Li Sheng asked, "How is it, can you stand it?" ”
The worker nodded and said, "Although the taste is not very good, it is not choking, and there is no discomfort in the eyes." ”
Li Sheng smiled and said, "That's good." If you feel unwell, wear a gas mask and glasses. ”
"I see, boss."
Li Sheng looked at the blender that was stirring the broken fruit, and asked the worker, "How much did you beat today?" ”
"There are about sixty frames. The broken fruit, which is pressed in the middle. ”
Li Sheng looked at the purple jam, nodded and said, "Then you are busy, let's go inside and have a look!" ”
Li Sheng motioned for Fernando and them to follow, and the four of them pushed open one of the doors inside. Inside are some fiberglass cylinders with pistons on them that slowly squeeze the purple jam inside. These cylinders are not very large.
Li Sheng and the others looked at it for a while, and saw that several workers could only pour two eighteen-liter buckets into it at a time. It seems that this crushing process will also take some time.
"It's for sake brewing, guess?" Fernando asked.
Li Sheng nodded and said, "This is actually a set of wine presses. ”
Fernando looked at the brown juice that had been squeezed out= and flowed into the milk bucket and said, "How long will it take for the juice to be pressed this time?" ”
Li Sheng did the math and said, "It will probably take more than a week." "It's going to have to be around the clock. (To be continued.) )
