Volume 3 Chapter 104 Seems to Have Found Something Amazing (Bao Yi)
After sending Tia to Huaxia and rushing back again, Li Sheng was ready to do a big job. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The main business that the farm needs to carry out now is flower and sericulture. Roses and mulberry trees, branches that have been cut into living need to be replanted into the ground. It is a labor-intensive job. Although there are tractors that can plough the ground, planting still requires manual operation.
These two efforts not only brought in the women of the Gilolo tribe, but also brought in women from Bukapocro to work as temporary workers. These two crops will take at least a year to be harvested. But Li Sheng is very concerned about this. Because these are two heavy-handed products that he thinks will broaden the farm business.
At this time, paclitaxel fruits begin to ripen. To Li Sheng's surprise, these ripe fruits turned out to be brown. It's a very strange situation. Could it be that these paclitaxels become infertile when they come into this world?
You know, these shrubs can't reproduce vegetatively, and now they don't even have seeds, don't they have male flowers, or do they wait until a certain year to have stamens before they have sex reversal? Although I couldn't figure out what was going on for a while. But, that's a good thing anyway.
The active ingredient in brown paclitaxel fruit is about 10 times higher than that of red fruit. It's just that at the beginning, he estimated the yield according to the corresponding ratio of the two kinds of brown and red fruits, but now all of them are brown fruits, and the production seems to be a bit excessive.
After he went to see it, he called Chen Bo and Fernando to tell him about it.
When Fernando heard that the paclitaxel he had been waiting for would finally be harvested, he immediately said that he would go to the farm in the near future to discuss it in detail. Chen Bo and Luo Zheng also planned to take a look.
Li Sheng had to wait for them to come and talk about it.
After noon that day, everything that should be arranged was arranged, and he was bored at home alone, and he went to the South District to stay in the office and have nothing to do. It was hot enough that he didn't want to bask in the sun outside, so he went to the lab to have a look.
Today, the farm's laboratories don't look as empty as they used to be. Because of the research project, which was said to have the potential to overcome cancer, Huaxia sent more than 20 researchers. All of a sudden, almost all of the labs were available.
Feng Xiaoting stayed in his office and lounge. After Li Sheng knocked on the door and entered, he found him facing the computer: "Are you busy?"
"Analyzing experimental data. Feng Xiaoting made him a cup of bagged coffee.
Speaking of which, the coffee grown on the farm has also been produced, but the yield is not very high. Not many people on the farm like to drink, and the researchers in the lab like to drink. They need a coffee pick-me-up. It's just that they don't spend a lot of time drinking coffee, and most of them drink bagged coffee. So their coffee is all bought outside.
Li Sheng will come over here, that is, he wants to understand the situation. I didn't know what his research project was for, so I didn't care much. But now it is clear that if his research really produces the expected results, the significance will be far greater than he imagined. For such a research project, even if he does not get any economic benefits in the end, he is willing to invest. It's not that he's kind, it's because of his fame and the property rights of his technology.
He took the coffee and took a sip, he really didn't like the bitter taste. He put down his cup and asked, "Your experiments are going well." ”
"It's going well, but this study can't be done in a day or two. Feng Xiaoting heard him ask, thinking that he was in a hurry to produce results. "This study requires the translation of the genes of the X virus. Although already many research departments are already working on this, there are even people who have done a part. But no one announced it, so we had to do it ourselves. ”
He paused for a moment, and then said, "In addition, it also takes time to analyze and extract immune substances. ”
Li Sheng smiled, waved his hand and said, "I just want to see if your research has encountered any hardware difficulties." Nothing else. ”
Feng Xiaoting also smiled when he heard him say that, and said, "Boss, don't worry, if there is any difficulty in that regard, I will not be polite to you." ”
He suddenly thought of one thing: "By the way, the experiment you asked me to do last time, the results of the experiment proved that neither that kind of honey nor that kind of rose can significantly promote the speed of cell metabolism." ”
"Neither?" Li Sheng didn't expect the experiment to come to fruition so quickly.
Feng Xiaoting explained: "Doing such an experiment is actually very simple, just verify it directly. The cycle of this experiment is not long. As long as you do a few experiments, the control group can get the results at once. I've done two experiments, and the results are that those two things can't make an animal's wound heal significantly faster. ”
Li Sheng listened to him and nodded. But in his heart, he wondered what he was missing.
Tia must have healed so quickly because of something on the farm, and she couldn't even see the scar now. That thing may have a greater meaning to Feng Xiaoting, but for Li Sheng, it means a new product. Moreover, it can operate products that are monopolized during the growth period.
A drug that speeds up wound healing, and may be used by anyone who is injured. The injuries he was referring to were certainly not minor wounds, but the ones that could leave scars. In fact, there are many kinds of wounds that can leave scars, such as relatively large abrasions and deep tears.
It can be said that the market for such a drug must be very large.
Unfortunately, now he has no way to verify what exactly caused it.
I came to the lab and got disappointing news. Li Sheng didn't bother Feng Xiaoting's work much, and left after sitting for a while.
He was quite disappointed that Feng Xiaoting could not give him a satisfactory result. When he saw that Tia's finger wound was so weird, at first he just wanted to see if he could have another money-making project. But then, he had a hunch that he might get more.
But now it can be said that the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
Nothing else on the farm, whether pasture or something else, is not indispensable. For the time being, the only thing that is indispensable may be paclitaxel. But the market for that thing is not in great demand, and there are studies on artificial production in the United States and China.
The United States is artificially combined, while Huaxia is engaged in stem cell extraction. No matter which country studies it, no matter how low the price of paclitaxel on the farm is, it may not sell a drop. He had to guard against the self-protection of the national industry.
It's only been three years, and the farm's two staple foods have spread. And these two staple foods can also take advantage of the epidemic of virus X. Once the X virus is resolved, it is likely that the farm's grain sales will return to a situation where it is difficult to sell. And other crops have the same concern.
No one wants to see a man who plays agriculture become the richest man in the world. In other words, such the richest man in the world, as long as he does not have too many scruples, is too easy to clean up. So Li Sheng hopes that he has the power of the real richest man in the world.
With such a long-term worry, he can only keep finding new and useful things to transplant to the farm management.
As a businessman, where does power come from? The most important thing is the driving force of world development. Bill Gai is rich, and if it weren't for his Microsoft's control of the development of the world's computer software technology through various patents, he would not have been able to reach the top of the list of the world's most powerful people. In fact, in the past few years, he has not stabilized on this list because of the increase in his wealth, on the contrary, it has been declining. Microsoft may still have the same control, but he, the majority shareholder of Microsoft, no longer has the control it once had.
Silent Farm is now very profitable, but it has no ability to control the industry. Li Sheng can now use the original grain seed to blackmail the Huaxia side, and maybe in the next few years, he can have more power because of this thing. But what about later?
If drugs can be developed to allow wounds to heal quickly, the situation may be different. Whether it's because of honey or fragrant creek roses, there can't be anywhere else to produce it other than Silent Farm. He felt that this thing could be operated into a necessity that could not be replaced in twenty years. Then he would have enough time to continue looking for more things that the other forces would not be able to ignore the Silent Farm.
It's just that this hope has been dashed for the time being.
The Xiangxi roses and mulberry trees that he had made before have now begun to be planted, but these two things may be quite profitable, but they cannot meet his needs. That's not a necessity.
So he was disappointed and decided to continue exploring the space for a while. Whether it is the topography or climate, the space is very changeable, and the area is not small. There were plenty of creatures in there, and he thought he should be able to find something like that.
So he went back to the days of searching the farm every day. The time in the space is one-to-one, and he doesn't have much time to explore every day. Sometimes I have to go out at noon so that the rest of the farm doesn't worry.
On this day, Li Sheng came out of the space, and after dinner, he sat on the sofa and carefully observed something, which was an earthy yellow dried insect, but a thing like grass teeth appeared on the insect's head.
This thing looks like cordyceps, and he ate it before the college entrance examination when he was in school. He knew that Cordyceps camps were produced in alpine mountains, and that the specimens were usually the size of chopsticks. The one he had in his hand was found in a savannah climate area on the slope between the rainforest and the high plateau in space, and one was about the size of his little finger.
Originally, he didn't think about bringing it back. Because on the earth, there are many things that seem to be cordyceps. Huaxia can also be found in the mountainous areas of Northeast China and North China. Of course, those are fakes. So at first, he thought it was just an ordinary fungus infestation. But the smell of the dried bugs made him doubt his judgment a little. The smell was very similar to the so-called cordyceps he had drunk. And the protozoan smell is stronger than that of Cordyceps.
The farm's cultivation of purple shirt fruit is caused by the smell. There is such a positive example, he still brought this thing out, planning to send it to the laboratory for analysis to see if there is any medicinal ingredients of cordyceps sinensis in it. If there is, even if it is extracted from the active ingredients, it may be possible to make money.
He put the worm back on the table in the pile of thirty identical withered worms, and picked up one of the leaves from a handful of leaves. The taste of this leaf is not good, and the reason why he brought it out is because this leaf allows him to see a feast of baboons in the sea court.
In fact, it was because of the leaves that he found the dried worm. This morning, he spotted a group of monkeys foraging in the grass, or rather some baboons picking the leaves to eat.
As a result, the baboons that ate the leaves became agitated at noon. Let him watch a morning's [messy] sex. And those who eat this leaf are male baboons, and it is important. He stumbled upon the male symbol of those male baboons...... Ahem, they're all majestic!
The more he waited for the baboons to leave satisfied, he went to pick a few leaves. The leaves are dwarf weeds, and when he picks them, he smells Cordyceps. So he took both things with him.
Eventually, he couldn't help but be curious, and took a small bite of the leaf, and when he chewed it, he found that although the taste was strange, it was not very unpalatable. (To be continued.) )
