A few days later, when Zhang Yaoyang came to the tenth floor of the No. 2 hive again, Darwin had been waiting for a long time.

"Your Excellency, Commander, you have come just in time." Without saying a word, Darwin walked towards one of the rooms, and said as he went, "Fortunately, the cloned embryo has been synthesized, please come with me." ”

Zhang Yaoyang followed the other party into the room, only to see that on the door of the room, there was a sign that said "Clone Cultivation Room".

And, unlike ordinary laboratories, there are not many scientific instruments here, instead there are rows of tall glass jars, which are about one meter in diameter and more than three meters high, and the base is made of metal and connected to the floor.

On the top of the glass jar, there are dozens of large and small pipes connected at the top, and inside the jar is a piece of green water, the water quality is clear and transparent, and from time to time there are strings of bubbles at the bottom of the jar.

As these bubbles grow larger, eventually the liquid can't hold up and floats upwards.

These tanks are densely packed, and walking in them is like being in a green jungle.

"These devices are the clones' cultivation chambers." Darwin pointed to the jars and said, "There are one hundred and thirty-five of them, and the same number of clones can be bred at once. ”

"And what about clones?" Zhang Yaoyang looked into the tank in surprise when he heard this, but the tank was empty.

"Here." Darwin seemed to have known that Zhang Yaoyang would ask this, he pointed to the middle of the tank, Zhang Yaoyang looked fixedly, and then saw that in the center of the liquid, a fetus two or three centimeters tall was suspended in the green solution.

This fetus is wrapped in a transparent film, and within the film, the fetal head occupies half of the body, the facial organs are faintly visible, the eyes are like two black beans, but the mouth is not visible, and the limbs are four thick and short granulations.

In the body of the embryo, a faint red spot is faintly visible in it, which is the heart that has begun to develop.

"This is the clone that we buy commercially available and synthesized from your somatic nucleus." Darwin continued, "Because of your aesthetic requirements, the eggs we bought in this batch are all Chinese women's egg cells, plus your nucleus, the synthetic embryos will never appear mixed and foreign, strictly speaking, these clones are actually your children and grandchildren. ”

"Very good, it looks like I have a full house of children and grandchildren now." Zhang Yaoyang nodded with a strange expression, "But what I want to ask is, how long will it take for them to become adults?" ”

"It's going to take about a month." Darwin quickly replied, "I know your concerns, please rest assured, these green solutions are actually like the mother's body, containing everything needed for human growth, and we will inject 50ml of r-HGH into the tank every hour, which is an acidic polypeptide made by recombinant DNA technology, simply put, super growth hormone, the main function is to promote the growth of nerve tissue, bones, muscles and other tissues, promote body metabolism and protein synthesis, and fat breakdown." ”

"With a large amount of nutrient supply, one month is enough time for these clones to develop from embryo to adulthood, and return to normal physiological metabolism after leaving the tank without any sequelae."

"It's a bit long, but I can afford to wait a month." Zhang Yaoyang breathed a sigh of relief, "Then these clones shouldn't be self-conscious, right?" ”

"Not if it's just for a month." Darwin shook his head, "It will take at least six months for the fetus to develop thoughts, even if the brain of a clone can be developed in a few days, it is not enough to generate self-consciousness, after all, the time is too short, strictly speaking, we are just producing an empty shell without a soul." ”

Zhang Yaoyang was completely relieved, "But only a hundred clones can be produced at a time is too little, I need to expand the scale, at least triple the number!" ”

"Yes, the second batch of equipment ordered from abroad will arrive tonight, and by tomorrow night, the second batch of cultivation warehouses will be set up, and the day after tomorrow, the second batch of clones will be able to enter the cultivation stage."

After talking to Darwin for a while, Zhang Yaoyang left the clone breeding room and returned to the pharmaceutical factory through the underground tram.

"Whew, I didn't expect time to pass so quickly, it's late June now." Looking at the calendar, Zhang Yaoyang couldn't help but be slightly speechless, just in a blink of an eye, a full three months have passed, according to this time, the university is estimated to be on vacation, and it is summer vacation time.

During this time, Zhang Yaoyang did not cut off contact with his family, his parents were still well, and he concealed the news that he had dropped out of school and went abroad, but said that he had taken out a loan to open a company, made a small game, and then played thousands of yuan on his parents' cards every month.

At first, his father scolded Zhang Yaoyang, but later he saw that it had no effect, so he forgot it, and Zhang Yaoyang paid more and more money every month, from thousands to tens of thousands per month, which made his parents adapt little by little.

Fortunately, the parents were still acceptable to their son to start a company, and there was no bloody situation, but they were reluctant to spend this money at first, saying that they wanted to save it to be Zhang Yaoyang's wife, Zhang Yaoyang simply said that he had earned millions, and his parents reluctantly began to use the money he called to improve their lives.

And now, from my mother's phone call, I learned that my father had thrown away the motorcycle he had ridden for many years and bought a Ford, which he displayed in front of his relatives every day.

Although he couldn't see his mother, Zhang Yaoyang could hear the pride and pride from his heart when his mother said this.

As soon as he returned to the office, he received a call from his mother again on his mobile phone, and Zhang Yaoyang couldn't help but smile slightly bitterly.

"Mom, I'm not going home this summer." Zhang Yaoyang picked up the phone, and he knew without asking that his parents were urging him to go home.

"Yes, the company is too busy to live without people."

"Well, I know, I must pay attention to my body, Mom, you have to take care of yourself."

"Tell Dad, don't worry about me, I will definitely go home for the New Year."

……

After some nagging, Zhang Yaoyang was relieved when his mother hung up the phone, but soon, the warmth on his face quickly disappeared and he returned to his previous indifference.

"Ba Song, make arrangements, from B· W· Troop T selected ten of the most agile fighters, gave them a Chinese identity, and sent them to my parents. "Their mission is simple, to collect any suspected anomalies in Antario to prevent my parents from being in danger. ”

"But ten is probably too few, and they ...... their appearances," Ba Song hesitated.

"I know." Zhang Yaoyang waved his hand, "It's okay, this is only temporary, when the first batch of clones with Chinese faces is born, you go and send a hundred people to Anzhou, set up an anomaly monitoring team, and at the same time, I will persuade my parents to find a few nannies, and the task of the female clones is to protect the personal safety of my parents." ”

"And that's not all." Zhang Yaoyang's index finger tapped lightly on the table, "These 100 people, no matter what method they use, whether they are a tenant or directly buy a neighbor's house, in short, I want them to become my parents' neighbors, vegetable market salesmen, shopping mall salesmen, colleagues in the unit, etc., within a week, not to get close to my parents, just to be on call in all my parents' activity areas at any time, just in case of accidents!" ”

"Yes!"
