Chapter 445: Heavenly Tree
Remember [Qianqian] in one second, and provide you with wonderful reading.
I saw that the body of this big tree is far higher than the surrounding trees, as if standing out from the flock, although it grows in the valley bottom, but the crown of the tree has already covered the southwest birch that grows on the hillside, the southwest birch is at least thirty meters high, if it is calculated in this way, the height of the big tree is definitely more than sixty meters, and from the exposed section of the tree body, the tree body is straight and straight, not a little bent, until the top of the branch is separated, from the appearance alone, it is definitely a good material for making totem poles.
What worries Shen Yibin is that there are no more leaves on the canopy of this big tree, it seems to be a dead tree, so the body of the tree should not rot, right? And I can't tell what kind of tree it is, I don't know if the wood is hard, and whether it is suitable for carving totem poles.
"Oh, that tree is the treasure of our forest farm, called Wangtian Tree, a tree species belonging to the dipterocarp family, and it is also a unique tree species in our province." Lao Qi explained to Shen Yibin, "The tallest tree in our China is a Wangtian tree in Xishuangbanna, which is 84 meters high, and the height of our Wangtian tree is 68 meters, which is the tallest tree in our Yunzhong City." ”
"Abin, I checked some information yesterday, there are not many trees in the world that can grow to more than 80 meters, and there are only a few, first of all, the almond eucalyptus in Australia, according to the data, the tallest almond eucalyptus is currently known to be 156 meters high, about 50 stories high; The second is the sequoia trees of the Americas, and there is a sequoia tree called the 'Stratosphere Giant' in Humboldt State Sequoia Park in California, which is 112.5 meters tall, which is the tallest tree in the world before the almond eucalyptus was discovered; There is also the big gamba bean in the Southeast Asian rainforest, this kind of tree can also grow to 80 to 90 meters, and the fourth place is our Chinese Wangtian tree. Wen Yuan also added on the side, "But this tree is a national Class I key protected wild plant, which can be called the giant panda of the plant world, let's just go and take a look, it is impossible to cut it back to make a totem pole." ”
"Hey, it's a pity, the wood of Wangtian Tree is hard, durable, rot-resistant, not susceptible to insects, straight texture, uniform structure, and is definitely a good material for totem poles." Wen Yuan shook his head regretfully, feeling quite pity.
"Mr. Wen is really an expert, and he knows more about Wangtian Tree than me, an old worker in the forest farm." Lao Qi gave a thumbs up, and then showed a mysterious smile, "But you didn't say that you can't cut it back, but it's not true, if you fancy it, I can really let you take this tree back." ”
"Don't! Isn't this causing trouble for you and Director Qin, we don't do anything that violates the law and discipline. Wen Yuan hurriedly refused, he thought that Lao Qi was taking the opportunity to slap Qin Qing, but as long as this kind of thing was involved, it would be trouble, and he didn't want to get into this kind of trouble, "It's really not good, let's just take the toon tree back just now." ”
"Mr. Wen, I have been in the forest farm for more than ten years, but I have always been honest and responsible, and we have never done anything illegal." Hearing this, Lao Qi was a little angry, what do you think of me! "It's really not illegal to cut down this Wangtian tree!"
"Huh? Is there anything to say? Of course such a good Shu Wenyuan wanted it, he refused just now for fear of breaking the law, but now when he heard that he could be taken away legally, he immediately became excited.
"Hehe, I'll take you over and you'll understand!" Lao Qi also sold a pass, and walked towards the Wangtian tree with his hands behind his back, Shen Yibin and the others hurriedly followed, came down from the hillside, came to the bottom of the valley, and after a long while, they finally arrived at the bottom of the Wangtian tree.
I saw that this tree did not survive alone, there are some shorter Wangtian trees around, these Wangtian trees are only twenty or thirty meters high, it seems that they are still in a juvenile state, and they can only see a big tree of more than twenty meters when they have just walked a long way, but they can be seen everywhere here.
"Huh?" Hal stood at the bottom of the tree, desperately tilting his head as if to see the top of the tree, but he couldn't see it, and finally fell to the ground with a straight bang.
Xiao Liu saw that the tree also opened his mouth wide, limped to the front, opened his two arms and hugged it, who knew that even a third of the tree had not been hugged, the bald head Qiang took his wife to help together, and the three guys did not hug it together.
"This tree has a diameter of 1.5 meters at breast height, and they can't hold it." Lao Qi said with a smile, the diameter of the chest is the diameter of the chest, and the diameter of the tree at a height of one meter and three meters from the rhizome is called the diameter of the chest.
"Hey, is this tree dead?" Wen Yuan walked up to the tree, carefully observed the bark, knocked on the tree again, and suddenly turned back and asked.
"Yes, otherwise I wouldn't be guilty of breaking the law if I cut it." Lao Qi revealed the mystery at this time, he patted the tree and sighed, "Hey, since I came to this forest farm, it has begun to show an old state, I thought it could last for a few years, but I didn't expect that the leaves began to slowly fall off in the first few months, and I found several groups of botanists who couldn't save it, and now it's been dead for a few months." ”
Now Shen Yibin understands that the living Wangtian Tree is a national Class I key protected wild plant, so no one dares to cut it, but since it is dead, there is naturally no need to protect it, as long as there are relevant legal documents, it will be cut down.
"The documents are all in my office, even if you don't come for a while, I'll cut it down, how about it, Mr. Wen, do you want it or not? If I want to, I'll go back and get the papers, and then I'll find someone to come and cut them, and if not, we'll go somewhere else, and I remember that there are still a few toon trees and hemlocks of 278 meters in the forest farm. Lao Qi asked.
"I don't have to look at anything else, as long as the formalities are okay, I'll take this tree!" With a sixty-eight-meter-high tree, who can still look at a twenty-eight meter tree, Wen Yuan touched the trunk of the tree with an obsessive face, "If this is put in ancient times, I am afraid that such a good tree can only be used by the emperor, even if we use it, even if we use it, it will be killed!" "He's a designer, and it's exciting to think about using this unique material in a project that he's designing.
"Okay, then this tree!" Shen Yibin also recovered from the shock, no matter how much it cost, I will take this tree away whatever I say, "Field director, go back and get the documents, call a few people to come over and help do some other work, if you cut down the tree, we can just do it!" ”
Well? You don't even have a saw, how can you cut down trees? Do you gnaw with your teeth? Lao Qi is a little confused!
