Chapter 121: You Can't Feed Them
However, Li Xiaogang was really difficult to answer Zhou Zongnan's question, and told him that he got it back from Shennongjia? If you can't keep it, will Zhou Zongnan pester him and ask him to take him to Shennongjia for a visit, you must know that Shennongjia is a treasure trove in the eyes of botanists, and the attraction is infinite!
Besides, Li Xiaogang's behavior is mysterious and weird everywhere, if he says it, he must scare the old scientist in front of him!
Zhou Zongnan looked up at the lush mother tree, the huge canopy covering the five acres of land like an umbrella, and the golden sunlight above his head reflected the rendering of the glass of the greenhouse, scattering a refreshing beauty.
The rays of light are refracted and scattered by glass at different angles, and then pass through the dense or sparse branches and leaves, presenting a bizarre atmosphere.
"Professor, you are a senior botanist with an insight into plants that ordinary people can't understand, so according to your eyesight, does this tree's presence here have any purpose?"
Zhou Zongnan is a senior botanist, yes, but what he is familiar with is what has been discovered by the world, and standing here, he is like a newborn ignorant baby, full of curiosity about the surrounding qiē, and the surrounding qiē is full of mystery in his eyes.
Zhou Zongnan's eyes climbed up to this mother tree, his expression suddenly stunned, and he pointed to the two heart-shaped lover fruits that appeared between the leaves from time to time!
"That's it?" ”
Li Xiaogang looked at Zhou Zongnan's finger and said with a smile: "That's the fruit of this tree, I call him Lover's Fruit!" By the way, let's try it. It's beautiful! ”
Li Xiaogang picked four lover fruits and gave them to four people.
It's not the first time Gao Yuanyuan has eaten it, and since he took the first bite of Lover's Fruit, Gao Yuanyuan was attracted by that dreamy taste.
Soon it came to the point of no success.
Under Gao Yuanyuan's demonstration, Zhou Zongnan. Qin Qin and Long Ling'er opened a small opening on the lover fruit, and then put it to their lips and drank it as if they were drinking coconut water.
"Ahh Zhou Zongnan seemed to have been shot by a bhikshu divine arrow, his whole body suddenly became stiff, his eyes were full of strange brilliance, and his lips trembled a little and said, "What is this?" Why does it taste so good? ”
After speaking, Zhou Zongnan couldn't wait to take a sip of lover's juice into his mouth. And then it's like you're addicted, and there's no way to stop! He never imagined that there was anything better in this world than wine.
The look of amazement on Qin Qin and Long Ling'er's faces never disappeared, and from the first sip, the two of them were deeply attracted by this taste, the mysterious breath of pure natural nature, the all-round stimulation of the taste buds, and the kind of pleasure that made the whole body feel comfortable. This qiē all turned into a heartfelt emotion in an instant.
"It's like the taste of love, sweet and charming!" Long Ling'er said as if she was whispering.
Li Xiaogang laughed.
Although it is not the first time that Gao Yuanyuan has eaten it, but every time it gives her a completely different feeling, every time she has a new taste, a new understanding, hearing Long Ling'er's sigh, Gao Yuanyuan was stunned, pitiful. looked at Li Xiaogang with begging eyes.
Li Xiaogang looked at her puzzled, not knowing what she wanted to do.
Gao Yuanyuan just looked at him for a while, and then looked at the lover fruit in his hand. Something muttered in his mouth.
Lover's fruit naturally has to be tasted by lovers, Li Xiaogang saw this kind of ** from Gao Yuanyuan's eyes after a while, Li Xiaogang was a little helpless, picked up a piece of dead branch from the ground, and quietly used divine power to open up the solid in it, and made two simple straws. Hand one to Gao Yuanyuan, and then insert the other straw straight into the lover fruit that Gao Yuanyuan was holding. He glanced at her and sucked it to himself.
Ever since the white clouds have been tricked. Li Xiaogang and Gao Yuanyuan now seem to have returned to the time when they first started falling in love, and Li Xiaogang did not have any immunity to Gao Yuanyuan's request, especially when Gao Yuanyuan looked at Li Xiaogang with her big watery eyes, Li Xiaogang was only left to surrender!
Gao Yuanyuan's heart was satisfied, and his face was full of happiness and he inserted a straw into the small hole that had been broken in advance, his heart was full of love for Li Xiaogang, and sure enough, the taste of Lover's fruit immediately changed a lot, more sweet, and more pleasant.
Gao Yuanyuan's face was full of intoxication.
Qin Qin and Long Ling'er both looked at Gao Yuanyuan with some jealousy, looked at the two of them who were close, and looked at the deep love that permeated the two, both of them really hoped that the person who drank a lover's fruit with Li Xiaogang was themselves.
Zhou Zongnan eliminated three lovers in a row, and Guocai Zhaba Zhaba smiled with satisfaction on his lips.
"Oh, it's so enjoyable! I couldn't have imagined such a delicious thing before, but today I didn't expect it to make me drink to my heart's content! If this thing is on the market, I don't know how many people will be sought after! Especially this name acquisition is good, lover fruit! Those lovers aren't crazy enough to snap up a pass? Wonderful, wonderful! ”
Zhou Zongnan said with satisfaction while patting his bulging belly.
Li Xiaogang smiled: "Grandpa Zhou, you haven't told me yet, what is the purpose of this tree here?" Li Xiaogang looked at Zhou Zongnan with a smile, as if he was testing his knowledge!
Although Zhou Zongnan didn't know anything about the mother tree at all, his years of work experience and profound botanical knowledge did not make him flinch, and Zhou Zongnan carefully looked at the surrounding environment.
Finally let him find the young shoots that had just broken through the ground.
Seeing that they were neatly arranged and regular, Zhou Zongnan suddenly thought that this must have been made by Li Xiaogang himself.
Under the shelter of the mother tree, it grows strongly.
Zhou Zongnan sighed lightly, squatted on the ground and carefully observed these shoots, as he expected, these shoots were not any kind of plants he knew, and even the subject to which they belonged Zhou Zongnan couldn't tell.
Zhou Zongnan was surprised to find out at this time. There was no plant in this greenhouse that he knew or understood, and it was so strange to him.
Suddenly, Zhou Zongnan felt that he was so ignorant, and at the same time, he deeply felt how poor the knowledge that people had in the face of infinite nature! People always like to add the word great before human beings, but they don't know that in front of the truly great nature. Human beings are so small, like a speck of dust that can be ignored!
After a long time, Zhou Zongnan said: "Although I don't know what these shoots are, I can guess that they are actually the most important things in this greenhouse!" And this tree is actually for them! Nature's wonderful companion system is really not something we can understand! ”
Li Xiaogang suddenly laughed out loud: "Sure enough, he is worthy of being an authoritative botanist in my country, and he can still say a ** without knowing anything." It's amazing! ”
Li Xiaogang paused and said: "Actually, I also discovered this tree by accident, and I named it the Mother Tree!" This means that it is like a mother sheltering the plants that live under its canopy, sheltering them from the wind and rain! These shoots are like the children of this tree, which can only grow under her protection! ”
"Haha, what a mother tree. Sure enough, it's apt enough! It fully embodies its greatness. ”
Zhou Zongnan excitedly stroked the mother tree that had undergone hundreds of years of historical changes, and said with a smile.
"Xiaogang, I have a reluctant request, and I hope you can agree!"
Zhou Zongnan hadn't said it yet, Li Xiaogang had already guessed what his reluctant invitation was, and shook his head with a smile: "No." Grandpa Zhou, I can't promise you! Not a single plant here can take out of this greenhouse! ”
Zhou Zongnan looked at Li Xiaogang with some surprise, in his eyes, he always thought that Li Xiaogang was an elegant and gentle young man who was easy to discuss. There is such respect for the elderly, so Zhou Zongnan proposed to bring the plants here back to the research laboratory for study, even the mother tree. Zhou Zongnan also wants to remove one!
But he never expected that he would be rejected by Li Xiaogang before he could say it, and his tone was still so resolute and tough, it seemed that there was no room for negotiation at all!
Zhou Zongnan said: "Xiao Gang, I know that these are huge fortunes for you, and the lover fruit produced on this mother tree alone will bring you unimaginable wealth to the market!" But as a human being, you can't just care about money! They only represent money to you. But for human beings, it means immensely, and it is very important. You have to weigh it up! ”
Listening to Zhou Zongnan's words, Li Xiaogang just smiled faintly. This was followed by two unequivocal words: "No!" ”
Being rejected by a young man with a smile on his face, Zhou Zongnan was a little annoyed.
"Okay, okay, let's do it, how much loss do you have, just ask, I'll come forward and ask the government to pay you a subsidy, it's okay for me to buy it, right?" Zhou Zongnan said helplessly, in his eyes, the reason why Li Xiaogang is like this must be because of money.
But he can't blame Li Xiaogang, the huge value of these plants and mother trees can be seen even by an economic idiot! However, when it came to money, Qin Qin's favorability towards Li Xiaogang immediately dropped a lot.
A mercenary man has never been her favorite type, even if this man is full of mystery and attraction to her.
The disdain in Qin Qin's eyes did not make Li Xiaogang feel angry at all, compared to the importance he attaches to his career, a woman's likes and dislikes for him have long been ignored by him! Don't say that Qin Qin just showed some disdain in her eyes, even if she opened her mouth to scold Li Xiaogang for being a greedy villain, Li Xiaogang would only laugh it off.
"Yes, you're right! I just grow them to make money! But I don't give them to you, not because of money, but because you can't grow them at all! To give them to you is to sentence them to death, and you say, "Can I give them to you?" Li Xiaogang said in a calm tone and with a flat expression.
"What? You say we can't grow them? You look down on people too much, don't you? Hearing Li Xiaogang's words, Qin Qin was the first to express strong dissatisfaction, as a botanist, if he can't even grow a plant, it is the biggest irony for them!
