Dahan Technology Empire
Chapter 104, Gene Lock
? Named Fortune Tree by Shuiwa is not a fortune tree that everyone usually puts in the office for ornamental purposes. It is a real fortune tree that can bring wealth.
The fortune tree is made from the genetic recombination of coconut tree, Populus euphratica, Brazilian rubber tree and Moso bamboo. It has the drought resistance and cold tolerance of Populus euphratica. It can also absorb water to fix soil and reduce soil erosion.
The gene of the Brazilian rubber tree allows the fortune tree to produce considerable bio-petroleum energy every year through photosynthesis, which can be directly used 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 stored in the coconut in the form of coconuts. Bio-oil used for energy.
The gene of moso bamboo allows the fortune tree to grow rapidly under the right conditions, and grow into a towering tree in just a few weeks like moso bamboo.
Inside the glass, several researchers in white lab coats first basked some dry bamboo grass seeds on the simulated Loess Plateau, and then planted the seedlings of the fortune tree at certain intervals.
The test field the size of a basketball court cannot plant too many seedlings. Soon, a few people planted a dozen seedlings and then evacuated.
Shuiwa, 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. They are also packed in a nutrition bag and planted together with the nutrition bag. Down.
Chen Gong, it's ready! The people under his command didn't dare to call him Shuiwa like the others, they usually called him President Chen or Chen Gong.
Let's start! Shuiwa nodded, and the subordinates turned around and activated a button. This button can perform a precipitation on the simulated site, and the precipitation amount is set in advance.
Some mist water is sprayed evenly from the top of the simulated field. The amount of water is very small, but the soft loess still changes slightly, but within 5 minutes, the fortune tree begins to grow. Yes, but Shui Wa and others who had been staring at it still saw it.
Then after another 5 minutes, the dry bamboo grass seeds began to sprout and take root!
An hour later, the fortune tree had grown by more than 1 centimeter than it had just started, and the seeds of the dry bamboo grass had all taken root and sprouted, and had already started to nod their heads.
After 5 hours, the fortune tree has grown to a height of 5 cm, with a few small branches, and the dry bamboo grass has also reached about 1 cm. The entire simulated Loess Plateau has begun to turn green, and the yellow loose soil is green. Excited.
After 24 hours,
The fortune tree has grown to a height of more than 20 centimeters, forming a small shrub forest. The dry bamboo grass has also reached a height of 5 inches. The entire loess high slope has completely turned into a green blanket, and there are shrubs on it. like a fortune tree.
A week later, the entire test site that simulates the environment of the Loess Plateau has turned into a small forest, with a fortune tree more than one meter tall, with luxuriant branches and leaves, and some small bean-like balls can be vaguely seen between the branches and the trunk. ; Beneath the grove, the group has more than 30 centimeters of dry bamboo grass stretching its body.
A month later, the entire simulation field the size of a basketball court can no longer see the traces of the original Loess Plateau, and the height of the Fortune Tree has reached 10 meters. The small ball between the forks is now the size of an egg.
The color of the small ball is not the green of the coconut, but yellow with spots. Below the fortune tree is the dry bamboo grass that is already more than 1 meter high.
Shuiwa cut a few small yellow balls with a sickle tied to a bamboo pole. A few sheep, cows, and horses were leisurely eating the dry bamboo grass. From the way they chewed, you could know that the dry bamboo grass was very good. pasture, which livestock like to eat very much.
Hey! Shuiwa used a sharp drill to drill a small hole in the small hard ball, and poured out some golden yellow transparent oily substance. You don't need to think about it. This is why the Fortune Tree is called Fortune.
Take it and analyze this! Shuiwa said to the assistant next to her. Shuiwa continued to drill, pour out a little, and analyze it carefully.
There is no peculiar smell of diesel, and the color is golden. If it is diesel, it can be compared to the best diesel. You must know that the lighter the color of diesel, the better the quality. The darker the color, the more impurities in it. The best diesel is this one. A transparent golden yellow! But China doesn't seem to be able to refine it, or in other words, a few barrels of oil have never been sold to ordinary people.
Shuiwa, it's okay! It's only been a few months, and you've come up with it! Shuiwa, who was concentrating on research, didn't notice Liu Qingquan's arrival at all, until the other party patted him on the shoulder.
Liu Qingquan looked up at the fortune tree in the testing ground, which was luxuriant and lush, and then looked at the livestock that were leisurely grazing, walked over and pulled up a dry bamboo grass, tore off a leaf, and chewed it in his mouth. , a little sweet grass root taste, not bitter, no wonder how these cattle and sheep eat so much.
Boss, look, this is biodiesel, it's transparent golden yellow, comparable to the best diesel! Shui Wa handed the small glass vessel filled with golden liquid to Liu Qingquan, and said excitedly.
Liu Qingquan took the utensils and first smelled them close to his nose. There was no peculiar smell of petroleum extracts, but there was a faint fragrance unique to vegetable oils.
Smear a little with your fingers and rub it finely, it is greasy and smooth, and it is not irritating to the skin.
Yeah! It's really a very good biofuel! Liu Qingquan put down the utensils and nodded affirmatively.
Boss, can we negotiate with the government as soon as possible, hurry up, and hurry up to sow as it is summer and there is a lot of precipitation! With the affirmation of the boss, whom he has always admired, Shuiwa is extremely excited, eager to Immediately go to the Loess Plateau to sow seeds, and then in a month, the Loess Plateau will turn into a green ocean.
Where are the poor people grazing cattle and sheep happily, waiting for the golden liquid on the fortune tree to bring the rolling wealth, people can have a happy New Year during the New Year, and young men can marry beautiful wives...
Before the promotion, there is still a job to do! Liu Qingquan said after thinking for a while.
What kind of work? I think the dry bamboo grass and the fortune tree are perfect now, and there is no need to improve it at all! Shui Wa asked in confusion.
I know they are all perfect, but Shuiwa, you must have forgotten one thing, that is to genetically lock them! Liu Qingquan thought of genetic locks.
The so-called gene lock is not the limitation of locking various superpowers mentioned in the novels, but a method of product security commonly used in the world. That is, using some special means for the genetically modified species that you have researched, so that others cannot reversely push your genetic combination through the product.
Or to limit or amplify some functions of GMOs to achieve what you want, such as restricting the reproductive genes of GMOs, others cannot continue to grow the crops by saving seeds, and must continue to buy seeds from you. , so you can make huge profits by selling seeds.
Now basically all rice seeds, corn seeds, soybean seeds, etc. are first-generation products, all of which have been genetically locked and can only be reproduced for one generation. Farmers can only continue to buy expensive seeds from seed companies, and plant nothing at all. self-choice.
Mr. Liu, how rich are you already? Do you still want to make money through this? Those farmers are poor and poor! Shuiwa stared at Liu Qingquan with red eyes, he couldn't accept that Liu Qingquan wanted to study hard by himself. The results come out to exploit the poor folks in their hometown.
Haha! Where did Shuiwa go? Am I that kind of person? Listen to me first! Liu Qingquan understood what Shuiwa was thinking when he saw Shuiwa's red eyes, and patted him on the shoulder.
I~~I, boss, I know you're not that kind of person, but isn't the purpose of genetic locking to continue to exploit farmers! Shuiwa naturally knows clearly about the genetic locking of grain seeds , those seed companies make a lot of money every year just selling seeds.
Who said that genetic locking must be for the exploitation of farmers, what do I do to better protect the interests of farmers, you think! If the things we have worked so hard to research are not locked and protected, those foreign Institutions can work out all the technology right away.”
At that time, they will make further improvements, develop better products, and eliminate our products. At that time, farmers will really only be slowly exploited by them. Now we add gene locks, People from abroad can’t study it for a while, so we can give farmers a low price or even free of charge in the country, and sell it at a high price abroad to subsidize the country, so that we can really consider it for them.”
What's more, if our technology is not locked and protected, everyone in the world can study it. When there are many people, the market competition will be extremely fierce, the bio-oil price will definitely plummet, and farmers will still not get benefits. Do you want it? Gene locking? Liu Qingquan hurriedly expressed his thoughts.
This practice is a common international practice. It locks and protects the genetic technology researched by itself, restricts the research of others, sells it at a high price internationally to earn huge profits, and vigorously provides various agricultural subsidies to the country, and guarantees the domestic agriculture at a loss. develop.
Shuiwa was stunned when she heard the whole person. She only thought about helping people in her hometown to get rich and changing the serious soil erosion problem on the Loess Plateau. She didn't consider other problems at all. various problems.
I'm sorry, boss, I'm blaming you! Shuiwa looked like a child who made a mistake.
Haha! I can understand your feelings. We only sell the cost price to domestic farmers. As for foreign countries, hehe! Liu Qingquan patted Shuiwa on the shoulder and smiled to reveal the essence of profiteering! (To be continued.)
