The "Fortune Tree" named by the water baby is not a fortune tree that everyone usually puts in the office for ornamental purposes, this is a real fortune tree that can bring wealth.

The fortune tree is genetically recombined from four plants: coconut palm, Populus euphratica, Brazilian rubber tree and moso bamboo, which has the drought tolerance and cold tolerance of Populus euphratica, deep and lush, and can adapt well to the arid climate, while the developed root system can also absorb water and consolidate the soil and reduce soil erosion.

The genes of the Brazilian rubber tree allow the fortune tree to produce a considerable amount of bio-petroleum energy each year through photosynthesis, which can be used directly as diesel oil without refining.

Extracting some of the genes from the coconut tree can make the bio-oil produced by the fortune tree every year be stored in the coconut in the form of coconut, that is to say, the coconut produced by the fortune tree is not a delicious coconut water, but a bio-oil that can be used as an energy source.

The genes of moso bamboo can allow the fortune tree to grow and shape quickly under the right conditions, and it can grow into a towering tree in just a few weeks like moso bamboo.

Inside the glass, several researchers in white coats first dried some dry bamboo grass seeds on the simulated Loess Plateau, and then planted the seedlings of the fortune tree at certain intervals.

The basketball court-sized test field didn't allow for too many seedlings, and soon a few people planted a dozen seedlings before withdrawing.

The water baby who has cultivated Yuanli has very good eyesight, and can clearly see the black dry bamboo grass seeds in the loess, and the tender green Fortune Tree seedlings are only a few centimeters high, and they are also packed in a nutrient bag, planted together with the nutrient bag.

"Chen Gong, it's ready!" The people under him don't dare to call him a water baby like others, they are generally called Mr. Chen or Chen Gong.

"Let's get started!" The water baby nodded, and the people under him turned around and activated a button after listening, this button can carry out a precipitation on the simulated field, and the amount of precipitation is set in advance.

The simulated site evenly sprayed out some fog water, the amount of water is very small, but the soft loess is still slightly changed, but within 5 minutes, the fortune tree began to grow, this kind of growth is difficult to find if you don't pay attention to it carefully, but the water baby and others who have been staring at it still see it.

After another 5 minutes, the bamboo grass seeds began to sprout and take root!

After one hour, the fortune tree had grown more than 1 centimeter more than it had just started, and all the seeds of the bamboo grass had taken root and sprouted, and they had begun to emerge and nodded.

After 5 hours, the fortune tree has grown to a full 5 centimeters tall, blooming a few small branches, and the dry bamboo grass has also been about 1 centimeter, and the whole simulated loess plateau has begun to turn green, and the yellow loose soil is full of green.

After 24 hours, the fortune tree has grown to a height of more than 20 centimeters, forming a small shrub forest, and the dry bamboo grass has been 5 miles high, and the entire loess slope has completely turned into a green blanket, and the shrub-like fortune trees on it are on it.

A week later, the entire test site simulating the environment of the Loess Plateau has turned into a small forest, with more than one meter tall fortune trees, with lush branches and leaves, and some small round balls like beans can be faintly seen between the branches and trunks; At the bottom of the grove, a group of more than 30 centimeters tall dry bamboo grass is stretching its body.

A month later, the entire basketball court-sized simulation field has completely lost the traces of the original Loess Plateau, and the height of the fortune tree has been 10 meters, and it will no longer grow taller, but has begun to thicken and become stronger, and the small round balls between the branches are now the size of eggs.

The color of the small round ball is not coconut green, but speckled yellow, and underneath the fortune tree is a dry bamboo grass that is already more than 1 meter tall.

The water baby cut a few small yellow balls with a sickle tied to the bamboo pole, and several sheep, cows, and horses next to it are leisurely eating the dry bamboo grass, looking at the way they chew, you can know that the dry bamboo grass is a very good pasture, and the livestock like to eat it very much.

"Hey!" The water baby uses a sharp drill to drill a small hole in the hard small round ball, and pours out some golden transparent oily substance, you don't have to think about it to know, this is why the fortune tree is called fortune.

"Take it and analyze this!" Shui Wa said to the assistant next to her, Shui Wa continued to drill, poured out a little, and analyzed it carefully.

There is no peculiar smell of diesel, the color is golden, if it is diesel, it can be compared to the best diesel, you must know that the color of diesel is the lighter the quality, the better the quality, the dark color indicates that there are many impurities inside, and the best diesel is now this transparent golden yellow! However, China does not seem to be able to refine it, or a few barrels of oil have never been sold to the common people.

"Water baby, yes! It's only been a few months, and you've got it! Shui Wa, who was concentrating on research, didn't notice Liu Qingquan's arrival at all, and didn't know until the other party patted him on the shoulder.

Liu Qingquan looked up at the fortune tree in the test site, the branches were luxuriant, lush, and then looked at the cattle that were grazing leisurely on the side, walked over and pulled up a dry bamboo grass, tore off a leaf, put it in his mouth and chewed it, it tasted a little sweet grass root, not bitter, no wonder these cattle and sheep ate so happily.

"Boss, look at it, this is biodiesel, transparent golden yellow, comparable to the best diesel!" Shui Wa handed Liu Qingquan a small glassware filled with golden liquid, and said excitedly.

Liu Qingquan took the utensils, first put them close to his nose and smelled them, there was no peculiar smell of petroleum refining, but there was a faint fragrance unique to vegetable oil.

Dip a little bit with your fingers, and under the gentle rubbing, it is greasy and smooth, and there is no irritation to the skin.

"Hmmm! Very good biofuel indeed! Liu Qingquan put down the utensils and nodded in affirmation.

"Boss, can we negotiate with the government as soon as possible, hurry up, it's summer now, there is a lot of precipitation, hurry up and sow seeds!" Affirmed by the boss who has always admired him, Shuiwa was extremely excited, and he wished that he was going to the Loess Plateau to sow seeds, and then after 1 month, the Loess Plateau would become a green ocean.

Where the poor people are happily grazing their cattle and sheep, waiting for the golden liquid on the fortune tree to bring rolling wealth, people can have a happy New Year, and the young men can marry beautiful daughters-in-law.......

"There's still work to be done before we can roll it out!" Liu Qingquan thought about it and said.

"What's the job? I think that the dry bamboo grass and the fortune tree are so perfect that they don't need to be improved at all! Shui Wa asked puzzled.

"I know they're all perfect, but Shui Wa, you must have forgotten one thing, and that is to genetically lock them!" Liu Qingquan thought that it was a gene lock.

The so-called gene lock is not the restriction of locking various superpowers mentioned in the novel, but a product secrecy method commonly used in the world. That is, through some special means for the transgenic species you have studied, so that others cannot reverse your genetic combination through the product.

Or it is to limit or amplify some functions of genetically modified organisms to achieve their desired goals, such as restricting the reproductive genes of genetically modified organisms, so that others cannot continue to grow the crop by keeping seeds, and must continue to buy seeds from you, so that you can make a good profit by selling seeds.

Nowadays, basically all rice seeds, corn seeds, soybean seeds, etc. are a generation of products, all of which have been genetically locked, and can only reproduce one generation, and farmers can only continue to buy expensive seeds from seed companies, and they have no choice of what to plant.

"Mr. Liu, how can you already be rich, do you still want to make money through this? Those peasants are all poor and white! Shuiwa stared at Liu Qingquan with red eyes, he couldn't accept that Liu Qingquan wanted to exploit the poor parents and villagers in his hometown through the results of his hard work.

"Haha! Water baby, where do you want to go, am I that kind of person? Listen to me first! Liu Qingquan saw that Shui Wa's red eyes were red, and he understood what Shui Wa was thinking, and patted him on the shoulder.

"I~~ I, boss, I know you're not that kind of person, but isn't the genetic locking just for the continuous exploitation of the peasants!" For the matter of gene locking of grain seeds, Shuiwa naturally knows very clearly, and those seed companies make a lot of money just by selling seeds every year.

"Who said that the gene lock must be for the exploitation of farmers, what should I do to better protect the interests of farmers, do you think! If the things we have worked so hard to develop are not locked and protected, then those foreign institutions will be able to develop all the technologies immediately."

"When the time comes, they will make further improvements, develop better products, and eliminate our products, and then the farmers will really have to be slowly exploited by them. Now that we add genetic locks, people abroad will not be able to study it for a while, so we can subsidize farmers at home by selling them at a low price or even free of charge, and selling them at a high price abroad, so that we can really consider them."

"What's more, if our technology is not locked and protected, everyone in the world can study it, but when there are many people, the market competition will be extremely fierce, the price of bio-oil will definitely plummet, and farmers still can't get benefits, do you want to carry out genetic locking?" Liu Qingquan hurriedly expressed his considerations.

This practice is a common practice in the world, which locks up and protects the genetic technology researched by oneself, restricts the research of others, sells it at a high price in the international arena to make huge profits, and vigorously carries out various agricultural subsidies at home to ensure the development of one's own agriculture at a loss.

Shuiwa was stunned when she heard the whole person, she just thought about helping the people in her hometown to get rich and change the serious problem of soil erosion on the Loess Plateau, and she didn't take into account other problems at all.

"I'm sorry, boss, I blamed you!" The water baby is like a child who makes mistakes.

"Haha! I can understand your feelings, we only sell at cost price to domestic farmers, as for foreign countries, hehe! Liu Qingquan patted Shuiwa's shoulder, and smiled to reveal the essence of "profiteer"! (To be continued.) )
