In the laboratory, Ou Weiqi was dressed in a white coat and held a shrinking baton in his hand, pointing to a small piece of grain in the laboratory that had already produced full ears and said to the visitors: "This is what we have achieved for some time. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info As you can see, the growing environment of these grains is a common desert saline-alkali zone in the northwest of our country, and the environment here is completely simulated in the local environment, and there is no watering the day after tomorrow, but this super seed can take root for several meters, absorb water from the ground, and can produce such full grains, which shows that our experimental direction is successful! ”

Lao Xiang and the experts and scholars who came to inspect looked at the experimental fields with surprised expressions on their faces. This is indeed very incredible, this crop grows, almost against common sense.

One expert, who didn't seem to believe the authenticity of the experiment, crouched down and peeled open the still salty layer of soil with his hands, ready to see what was underneath.

Ou Weiqi picked up a small shovel from the side and handed it over. The expert was a little surprised, but took the shovel and dug it up.

After a few shovels, you can see that the root system of this grain is very developed, but at the beginning, almost the taproot is straight down, and the soil layer below is indeed the kind of sandy soil layer with salt and alkali, and there are even some Gobi stones mixed in it.

The expert had been on the front line and could clearly see that the grain was not transplanted here later. Some fibrous roots are still wrapped with small stones, and this growth state is normal.

It's just that, in this harsh environment, such a normal growth, how is this possible?

This plant and the grains that are usually seen, but the leaves are thinner, the plant is harder, and the surface seems to be pasted with a layer of wax, the specific principle, this expert can guess a little, but the cultivation method, he can't think of at all!

"We also have plants that can grow in the desert environment," Ou Weiqi waited for the expert to wash his hands, and then took them to another experimental field, "although this plant can not be used as a food crop, but it can improve the small environment in the desert area in a small area, this plant also has a certain role in sand fixation, and the practicability is very strong, the most rare thing is that after this plant grows, its witherable branches have large oily content and good flame resistance, and it is a good economic plant." ”

Experts began to observe the plant, and some simply broke the plant to see the sap seeping out of it, and even smelled it.

The expert just now had a small shovel in his hand and dug directly into the sand.

It is indeed a desert state, down is dry sand, digging down nearly half a meter, the sand is only a little damp, the taproot of this plant is not forked, it is still straight down, the outside of the root is wrapped in a layer of withered brown skin, experts know that this is to protect the water in the taproot from loss.

After digging down more than two meters, I saw that the taproot began to branch out of the first small fork, and at this time the sand was still only slightly damp.

Experts understand that plants growing in this environment, not to mention at the edge of the desert, even in the depths of the desert, have a high chance of surviving: in the big desert, the main sand dunes are dug down a meter or two, and usually the sand begins to get wet.

Except, of course, for the fast-moving sand dunes, where the water is dried by the wind as it shifts.

After looking at these experimental fields, Ou Weiqi took them to the conference room.

The experts all sat down, and Ou Weiqi quietly turned to leave.

"Senior engineer, look at ......" Lao Xiang looked at the expert who was holding a shovel in his hand just now. Among these experts, he is the most authoritative, and he has just observed the most carefully.

"Very good!" Gao Gong's face was expressionless just now, but when Ou Weiqi left, he did not hesitate to praise the words: "This plant, judging from the current adaptability, their propaganda is not exaggerated in the slightest, and it can indeed grow on the edge of saline-alkali land and desert. However, I haven't seen the specific experimental data, and I don't know what will happen after large-scale planting. ”

"That's good!" Lao Xiang automatically ignored the last sentence, and then turned to another expert: "He Gong, you see, the economic value of these two plants ......"

"Very big!" That He Gong was obviously also very optimistic about these two plants. "I just read the nutritional analysis of this grain, this is a very good kind of food, let's not mention the value of land improvement and environmental transformation, the value of these two plants alone, is enough to make our investment pay off! I suggest that we should continue to invest more in the research of these two plants to ensure that we can maximize our benefits after success! ”

Lao Xiang nodded, obviously, the words of experts, the words of these real experts, he listened to them.

After a while, footsteps came, and Fang Shaojie walked in.

"Mr. Xiang, experts, what do you think of our experiment?" Fang Shaojie asked modestly with a smile. In fact, he already knew from Ou Weiqi just now that these experts did not pick any thorns. Since there is no picking, then it should be satisfied.

"It's okay overall." Lao Xiang said: "We are very pleased that your experiment is very effective, and the adaptability of the seeds studied is also very strong. ”

Fang Shaojie nodded, accepted Lao Xiang's praise, and then introduced: "We are the fourth generation of seeds. However, at present, it is only suitable for small-area experimental planting, and if you want to plant on a large scale, you need to continue to optimize it - but to be honest, there is not much experimental funding left now......"

"How can it be so fast?" Lao Xiang was very surprised, with the consent of Mr. Liu in the early stage, a large amount of experimental funds were allocated to this laboratory, and it was gone so soon?

"We have special accounts," Fang Shaojie smiled bitterly: "In order for the experiment to produce results, some materials must be used." And many of the auxiliary materials in the early stage are very expensive - fortunately, after the seeds are cultivated, they will not be needed for mass production. It's a tough stage, but I think it's worth it! ”

……

Mr. Liu looked at the evaluation report in hand, his brows furrowed, he was also a little unhappy that the funds in the laboratory were used so quickly, and hundreds of millions of funds had been invested before and after. Now the experts have come to a very good conclusion, but he still has to continue to invest, although the prospects are good, he is a little hesitant, when will he see the output?

Mr. Liu has now regretted it a little. This is the longest period of money he has invested, and in the past, he always looked at the target, started by different means, and then dismembered those companies, went public through backdoor listings, and walked away with money. The longest is only a year and a half, but the benefits are clearly visible.

Now, nearly a year has passed since the experiment, and the funds that have been invested are not only the cost of the experiment, but also the cost of contracting land. Although it is said to grow in desert areas and desert areas, those lands need people to work, so most of the land he is looking for is wasteland with villages around, although it is not as good as the price of those dry land, but it is also a lot of money to build supporting facilities.

Although this money is not much for Mr. Liu, he still needs to invest in the follow-up, which makes him a little unhappy!

This is a gold-swallowing beast!
