Every Day One Step Closer To the Manifestation

For people like Feng Yi and Tang Kui who catch snakes and raise snakes, the cobras in these farms are certainly not fierce, but for ordinary people, they can run two miles away just by hearing their names, let alone photographing them. head!

And these are with fangs! The poison glands were not removed!

If Mo Xiaoguang was alone, he would definitely run away when he saw the cobra.

Tang Kui asked Feng Yi: "Brother Yi, have you ever seen a wild Zhoushan cobra?"

He shouted after Mo Xiaoguang, "Brother Yi" is more intimate, and the title "wind expert" is too polite, and there is a sense of distance.

It's rare to meet people of the same age who can have a common topic, and they are still professionals with real skills! Tang Kui was very excited and talked more than usual.

Feng Yi: "Well, I was caught during the scientific examination with the team." I also molested.

Tang Kui: "How do the ones in my field compare to wild ones?"

Feng Yi: "This snake is really fat."

Tang Kui laughed and said, "Sure! They don't have to worry about eating and drinking. They eat when they're hungry, and find a place to sleep in a daze after eating!"

While speaking, Tang Kui patted the back of a snake again.

"The reaction speed of breeding can't be compared with wild ones, and the murderous look is not strong when angry. I applied for a volunteer for the scientific expedition team in high school. I was a minor at the time, and the area I could enter was limited, but luckily I met a cobra. I almost got bitten when I grabbed it.”

Tang Kui led them out of the room, closed the door, and joked about encountering a snake in the wild.

Feng Yi also remembered that when he and the team went to the mountain for scientific research, someone in the team failed to catch the Zhoushan cobra and was carried to the hospital, so he turned his head and said to Mo Xiaoguang:

"The Zhoushan cobra is still very dangerous. Don't imitate Tang Kui's approach. How far away can the cobra in the wild be?"

Mo Xiaoguang: "Of course!"

You don't have to say it!

Not to mention the snakes in the wild, but the "not fierce" ones that you have raised in front of me, I can't wait to run out on hot wheels!

As a first-time entrepreneur, Tang Kui is very high-spirited: "Now I only raise Zhoushan cobras in this business, but I plan to start breeding five-step snakes in the next step. The market for five-step snakes is very good."

Mo Xiaoguang was puzzled. As a person who doesn’t usually pay attention to snakes, he always hears people talking about cobras. Some people change their nicknames, choose names for film and television dramas, design icons and images, and so on. Although the name of the five-step snake is very arrogant, it is rarely mentioned, and it is not common in daily life.

"I think cobras are more powerful. Why didn't you start with simple ones when you started your business? Raise five-paced snakes first and then cobras?"

Tang Kui paused, and said with a faint smile: "The five-step snake is not easy, and it is not easy to raise. If you refuse to eat and are lazy, you have to artificially feed it."

"Oh, it sounds like I have a bad temper." Mo Xiaoguang seemed to understand, "The five-step snake is more poisonous or the cobra is more poisonous?"

Tang Kui: "In terms of toxicity alone, referring to the value of 50, the Zhoushan cobra is more poisonous. But the detoxification volume of the five step snake is larger than that of Zhoushan.

"However, there are also some cobras with a relatively large detoxification capacity, such as the king cobra, which is large and powerful. If it is a king cobra, I would not have dared to get so close to lift the quilt just now!"

Tang Kui and Mo Xiaoguang couldn't talk about this kind of topic, so he continued to exchange experiences with Feng Yi.

"In the wild, I think the five-step snake is more dangerous than Zhoushan, at least for me. Brother Yi, have you ever seen a five-step snake in the wild?"

Feng Yi thought about it for a while: "I've seen it. There was a big one, which was caught by another expert in the team in the crevices of the rocks by the stream."

Tang Kui scratched his head: "Hey, I just think the five-paced snake is too vicious. It looks like that, and you can't find it in the grass. It's the kind of snake that can't be startled by weeding! Although many vipers can shake their tails, but It’s another story if you can’t see it. Hit the weeds with a stick for a long time, but nothing moves, and you will be bitten if you take a step forward! That’s terrible!”

Tang Kui smiled and continued to exchange skills on catching five-step snakes with Feng Yi.

Mo Xiaoguang, who was standing beside him, said in his heart: Heh, people like you who say "very dangerous" with a smile are really scary!

Tang Kui didn't just talk to Feng Yi, he noticed Mo Xiaoguang's fear of snakes and restlessness, and comforted him: "Don't be afraid, there is anti-cobra venom here."

Mo Xiaoguang: "Oh."

Although I know that being bitten can be saved, I still feel very delicate when I hear this, and I always feel as if I can be bitten by a snake at any time.

"Can I bring one of this serum? It's not for nothing, I'll buy it! There are other snakes, and I have one!" Mo Xiaoguang said.

I have to go fishing later, what if a snake escapes from prison this time? Or what if a wild snake breaks in?

Of course it is better not to use it, but it feels safe to carry it with you!

Tang Kui said helplessly: "I have other antivenoms in my big place, not far from here. If you are bitten, you can be treated in time. There are professional freezers for storage. Antivenoms have certain storage conditions. .”

The cost of making and storing antivenom is not low, but with the scale of Tang Kui's farm, antivenom is a must. The breeds of venomous snakes that have been kept always have serum.

Mo Xiaoguang was disappointed when he heard that there was a request for storage: "That's it."

Tang Kui: "When there is no antivenom serum, there are other ways to deal with it. Brother Yi should also know that scientific expedition teams rarely carry serum with them."

Mo Xiaoguang looked at Feng Yi.

Feng Yi nodded: "Yes. Someone was bitten at that time, and the team directly used the things in the medicine box for first aid, without serum."

Mo Xiaoguang said to Tang Kui again: "Then you help me assemble a first aid kit, and I'll pay for it!"

This is not a troublesome thing. There are spare medicines and tools. Tang Kui did not refuse, "Okay, I will install it for you later. If you encounter a snake, stay away if you are not bitten. If you are accidentally bitten, do it well." First aid, then go to the hospital for treatment. If you don’t know what snake it is, take a photo and let the doctor know what snake venom it is. Antivenom is specific, and snake venoms of different families and genera may not be able to neutralize the toxin. Know what snake bites It is better to use medicine for the wounded."

Seeing that Mo Xiaoguang's face was barely pale with a smile, Tang Kui changed his words and said that Mo Xiaoguang might be interested.

"Snake venom is dangerous, but it is also very valuable. Liquid gold is not for nothing."

Mo Xiaoguang was taken aback when he said this, "Is it really that expensive?"

Feng Yi also prepared to take notes.

Tang Kui led them to another building:

"It's expensive. Snake venom has always been expensive. My grandfather and his generation thought that snakes were all treasures, and snake venom was a treasure. At that time, the city circle was not big, and the village was on a hill far away from the town. There were many snakes, and there was no such thing as animal protection." , Some villagers catch poisonous snakes and make wine when they encounter poisonous snakes on the mountain, and some people like to mix snake venom with wine."

Mo Xiaoguang shook his goosebumps: "How about mixing snake venom with wine?"

Tang Kui: "Yes, take the venom, pour it into wine, shake it, and drink it like that. I heard that people abroad inject themselves with snake venom to keep them young!"

Mo Xiaoguang began to think about it.

Tang Kui continued: "I don't know the health effects of snake venom mixed with wine, and there is not enough scientific basis. In fact, it seems dangerous now, and I dare not imitate it. Snake venom is basically protein. In theory, it goes directly into the stomach It can be digested, and will not be poisoned if it does not touch the blood circulation, and high alcohol can denature and inactivate the protein and remove the toxicity. However, there is also the theory of protein renaturation.”

Mo Xiaoguang tentatively asked: "Then if the snake venom in the wine has not completely lost its toxicity, and I have oral ulcers, if I take a sip, will there be any major reaction?"

Tang Kui: "No big reaction."

Mo Xiaoguang was eager to try: "That's okay."

Tang Kui: "Let's just spiral up to heaven."

Mo Xiaoguang: ""

Mo Xiaoguang deleted the snake venom wine from his mind. I originally wanted to use it for installation, but forget it.

Tang Kui: "Snake venom is expensive, and some of it is used to make antivenom serum to treat bite wounds. Besides, it has other great medicinal value, such as anticoagulation, analgesia, fiber reduction, etc.

"Another example is the snake venom peptides and snake venom-like peptides researched from snake venom, which simulate certain effective fragments in snake venom, and then use artificially synthesized active peptides for anti-wrinkle. Many well-known cosmetic companies have used them, but they may not Labeling the words snake venom has a bad influence and is easy to cause misunderstandings, and most of them are directly used chemical names. In fact, the early research and development are related to snake venom."

The three walked into another building, and Tang Kui wanted to show off a little: "This is my workshop, the left is the office area, and the right is the operating area."

Feng Yi observed, Tang Kui only led them into the office area, and did not let them pass the operation area. The two areas were separated by transparent glass, so they could see the layout there.

The operating area is not large, but there are operating tables and machines, and a device for extracting snake venom can also be seen.

Feng Yi glanced over the placed machines, and then looked at the printed periodical documents on the desktop in the office area.

Some are pure foreign languages.

There are also many books in the bookshelf, some related to breeding, and some related to biological theory.

Mo Xiaoguang was surprised: "You guys still need to look at these?"

Tang Kui spread his hands: "Learn more about the current cutting-edge research trends, those will also cause fluctuations in the price of snake venom."

Mo Xiaoguang was curious: "Is the snake you raise expensive?"

Tang Kui smiled and said, "The price is lower than that of the five-step snake. In fact, it was lower before. It's just that in recent years, there are many teams testing new drugs, the demand is large, and there are not many legal farms, so the price has rebounded. Good. Sell."

Nowadays, the number of snakes in the wild has decreased, and there is the strictest protection law restricting capture, and it is difficult to obtain a breeding certificate. Most of the snake venom is supplied by farms. In recent years, the demand for new drugs has increased, and these farms have become busy.

Mo Xiaoguang: "So in general, the price of snake venom here is not expensive?"

Tang Kui said flatly, "Well, it's a little more expensive than gold."

Mo Xiaoguang: ""

Tang Kui: "It's really not expensive. My parents have several kinds of very expensive venomous snakes, and they are all raised in cooperation with other scientific research teams. Those with higher medical value~www.readwn.com~ are more expensive, snake venom dry powder A gram is tens of thousands."

Feng Yi looked at the operating area and asked, "You get the poison yourself?"

Tang Kui replied: "There are still a few employees in the field, but as long as there is nothing else, I will take the snake venom myself. Improperly taking the venom will cause great harm to the snake."

"And then process it in the operating area?"

"Yes, it is simply processed into dry powder of snake venom, which can be stored for a longer period of time. We sell crude venom, and those experimental teams in pharmaceutical factories or research teams in universities will purify it to different degrees according to their needs."

Feng Yi wrote it down secretly.

If he wants to raise snakes, he won't raise too many snakes at first, a small scale like Tang Kui is fine. I don't have breeding experience, so I don't know if instinct is reliable or not.

The venom only needs to be crude and poisonous, and he has to buy a drying machine. Models with those in the Tang Kui operating area should be sufficient.

By the way, we still need to apply for a permit and find a place to build a farm.

"Is the snake easy to raise?" Feng Yi continued to take notes.

Tang Kui thought for a while, "Actually, I'm familiar with it and have enough experience. It's okay. During the raising process, we must pay attention to weather changes, pay attention to parasitic diseases, and check whether their moulting is smooth, and if they refuse to eat, etc., we must clean up. Disinfection, but also to shovel excrement, don't think that temperature-changing animals don't need to shovel excrement, it's still the same! "

Tang Kui talked a lot.

Feng Yi listened, and put down the little notebook in his heart again.

Take a deep breath.

Forget it, let's take care of yourself first.

I didn't know how to raise a snake myself, what kind of snake to raise!

Feng Yi himself knows what the "expert" is supported by.

Catching snakes depends on instinct, but how to raise snakes, instinct may not be able to help.

So, don't bother with those.

He licked the two fangs in his mouth.

Can these two guys make money?
