Chapter 179: Breakthrough

The next morning, Jiang Mi was immersed in a dream, when suddenly, she felt someone sitting on the edge of her bed shaking her arm.

"Xiao Mi wake up, there's something big!" Jiang's mother's voice revealed an unconcealable excitement and expectation, "Wake up!" ”

Jiang Mi was dreaming, and when she heard her mother's voice, she couldn't help but feel nervous, thinking that there was some kind of aberration again.

She quickly sat up and asked nervously, "Mom, what's wrong?" ”

Mother Jiang couldn't help but laugh out loud when she looked at Jiang Mi's nervous appearance.

Mother Jiang gently patted the back of Jiang Mi's hand, with a happy smile on her face: "Don't be nervous, it's a good thing." Deng Lao: They have made a new breakthrough in planting! ”

"Really?!" A hint of surprise flashed in Jiang Mi's eyes, and he couldn't wait to ask, "What is the new breakthrough?" Did Mr. Deng say anything about the specific situation? ”

Jiang Mu shook her head, "I don't know the specific situation, but it seems that I can get planting results faster." We'll have to see for ourselves the details. ”

After saying that, the two of them came out of the space together.

Jiang Mi hurriedly washed her face with water, wiped the water stains on her face briefly, and hurriedly left the room.

Growing food has always been a heart disease of Jiang Mi, the food in the space can not last long, and now, with the increasing number of people in the base, the food is visibly reduced, and the study of food planting is imminent.

However, she was very much looking forward to the good news brought by Deng Lao.

Going out of the space, Jiang Mi hurriedly came to the plantation, and as soon as he came in, he saw Deng Lao and the others lying in the ground, concentrating on discussing and studying something.

Deng Lao squatted on the edge of the field, holding a piece of corn in his hand, sometimes frowning, sometimes frowning and smiling, he looked at it with a magnifying mirror, and then broke off the corn kernels and crushed them in his hands.

Seeing Jiang Mi coming, Deng Lao quickly stood up and strode towards her.

"Miss Jiang, I have a good thing to tell you!" Deng Lao was radiant, and his eyes were full of light.

Deng Lao's eyes flashed with excitement, he took Jiang Mi's hand and said excitedly: "We really did it!" We've found a way to speed up crop growth! It can shorten the growth cycle of crops to two-thirds of the original one! ”

As soon as I heard this.

Jiang Mi's heart beat violently, and she couldn't wait to ask, "What! Shorten the growth cycle to two-thirds? Where is the experiment? ”

"That's right, it's two-thirds of what it would normally be! The results of the preliminary experiments have been obtained, and the technical theory is completely fine, and after I do a few more experiments and the technology is fully mature, it can be implemented in large quantities. ”

Jiang Mi's heart beat like thunder, and she couldn't help but sigh, "What kind of technology is this?" ”

After all, the growth cycle of crops outside the space has been stuck in a short period of about half for a long time, although it is much faster than before the end of the world, but this era is different, and the expectations are not the same.

Deng Lao smiled mysteriously, and then pointed to the planting area behind him: "Look at those crops, they have begun to grow rapidly now. We used a new fertilizer that contains a special microorganism that is able to live in symbiosis with the crop and increase the growth rate of the crop. ”

Jiang Mi's eyes widened, carefully observing the crops in the planting area.

I saw that those bract rice seedlings, which were originally only knee-high, had now grown taller than her, and the branches were thick, and the fruits were plump, and they looked very healthy.

She clearly remembered the last time she came to the planting area, these sprouts had just sprouted, and now they were all bearing fruit.

Counting the days, how long has it been?

"Isn't that the future one crop of rice can become three crops of rice?"

Jiang Mi couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, so that the growth rate of crops in the planting area was basically the same as that in the space.

Deng Lao nodded, and his face couldn't contain joy, "That's right." ”

These days, he has been working day and night, eating and living in the experimental fields in the planting area, and he has finally come to fruition.

"Deng Lao, this time you really worked hard, and you were able to make a major breakthrough in research and development in such a short period of time," Jiang Mi exclaimed, "With this technology, when the time comes, there will be no problem for the base to accommodate more people." ”

"Yes, in this way, we can not only solve the food problem, but also improve the yield and quality of crops. This is a great thing for the entire base! Deng Lao said proudly.

Jiang Mi nodded, and an indescribable joy surged in his heart.

She knew that this breakthrough would mean a lot to the entire base. Grain is the foundation of the base, and with enough grain, they can develop more steadily.

Jiang Mi and Deng Lao returned to the laboratory together and began to discuss the details of this new technology in detail.

"By the way, Miss Jiang, in addition to fruits and vegetables, there have also been new breakthroughs in the research and development of wheat and rice."

Deng Lao smiled mysteriously, and then handed Jiang Mi a report, "This is the recent research result of our research team, and we have successfully applied this microorganism to the cultivation of wheat and rice, and the effect is also very significant. ”

"Although the speed is not as fast as that of fruits and vegetables, it has also made great progress on the original basis, and with these fertilizers, we may be able to grow rice and wheat indoors. And the technology will continue to break through, and it is believed that it will not be long before the growth rate of wheat and rice can be doubled. ”

Jiang Mi took the report and looked down carefully.

The report details experimental data and comparison charts, which clearly demonstrate the positive impact of the new technology on crop growth. Jiang Mi looked at these data, and his heart beat faster.

It was almost to be expected that the entire industry would flourish after that.

After thinking about it, Jiang Mi took out Xiao Ash and some ripe melons and fruits from the space again, "Old Deng, these are also handed over to you." Please help me with the research. ”

Deng Lao looked at the little ash and melon fruit handed over by Jiang Mi, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by excitement.

"Miss Jiang, this is ......"

"I think they might be helpful for our research as well. Please help me research and see if they can also promote the growth of crops. Or maybe there's a secret there. ”

Deng Lao nodded, happily took the things handed over by Jiang Mi, and looked at them over and over again.

"Okay, Miss Jiang, I'll arrange the research as soon as possible."

In the days that followed, Mr. Deng and his research team devoted themselves to the research of new technologies like crazy.

They experimented, observed, and recorded data day and night, and carried out experiments in full swing, without even taking care of eating.

After Jiang Mi learned about it, he had to sigh with emotion, Deng Lao is really a workaholic.
