Chapter 33 A Trip to the Academy of Sciences - Part 2
He Yunyi took Ruan Tang downstairs to visit the R&D area.
The R&D area is the largest area in the Academy of Sciences, consisting of dozens of large laboratories, each with a different division of labor. For example, the first laboratory is mainly responsible for the research and development and transformation of new weapons, the second laboratory is responsible for the development and upgrading of artificial intelligence and robots, the third laboratory is responsible for the study of ancient earth culture and history, and the fourth laboratory is dedicated to Responsible for the restoration of natural ingredients, the fifth laboratory... In short, each department performs its own duties, and the division of labor is quite clear.
And He Yunyi wants to show Ruan Tang the fourth laboratory, because there are many ingredients that are being recovered and tested here, maybe some of Ruan Tang's whimsical ideas can bring them some inspiration. Other laboratories involve the secrets of the empire and require certain permissions to enter, so it is not suitable for Ruan Tang to take a look.
As soon as Ruan Tang entered the fourth laboratory, what Ruan Tang saw was a book sealed in a transparent container. The cover of the book was already tattered, and the paper inside was also yellow and wrinkled. It looked like it had been soaked in water for a long time. The time was short, but Ruan Tang recognized the style of the book at a glance—Ci Hai.
He Yunyi noticed Ruan Tang's gaze, and explained to him intimately: "This is the only complete book that was rescued from the ruins during the war, and it is also the cornerstone for the continuation of our human civilization."
Thousands of years ago, human bases suffered a devastating blow from aliens. Electromagnetic pulse weapons caused all human computer systems and information equipment to fail, and a large amount of precious data was lost. When humans fled the earth, they brought very limited paper materials, and after the war, the materials that survived were even more pitiful.
In fact, it is not difficult for the Academy of Sciences to use today's genetic technology to restore the plant seeds and animals that human ancestors kept in underground freezers thousands of years ago, but the difficulty is how to distinguish these species. After all, not all plants and animals Animals are edible ingredients. So they can only try their best to restore it while conducting research, and the efficiency is terribly low.
Fortunately, in recent years, the empire has made breakthroughs in space leaps, and an exploration team risked their lives to return to the devastated earth.
The earth's magnetic field has been completely changed, the ozone layer has been completely broken, and there is no living body at all, but many of those inanimate objects have been preserved, and they were brought back by the exploration team, which made their research possible. Breakthrough progress, the speed of restoring ingredients has also made a qualitative leap.
In order to speed up the research, the fourth laboratory is divided into many groups, and each group has a different research direction.
Those who specialize in plants, those who specialize in small animals, those who specialize in large animals, and those who specialize in animals and plants related to water...
Each group occupies a separate floor in the building of the fourth laboratory. He Yunyi first took Ruan Tang to the second floor, "This is the site of the first group, and the main research is all kinds of plants."
Entering the second floor, Ruan Tang felt as if he had come to a tropical rainforest, where all he could see was a piece of verdant green. Fruits, trees, flowers and even various vegetables were neatly placed in transparent containers. The researchers recorded water, nutrients, temperature, humidity and growth habits one by one, while sampling and analyzing mature plants, which can be described as methodical.
"Why are they all sitting there?" Ruan Tang noticed that these researchers like to sit under a tree when they use optical brains for research and analysis, and couldn't help feeling a little curious.
"Because it is an apple tree that is about to bear fruit. It is said that if you sit under the apple tree and get hit on the head by an apple, you will have wonderful inspiration." He Yunyi explained.
Ruan Tang: "..."
Newton's coffin board probably couldn't bear it anymore.
At this time, Ruan Tang saw a clump of jagged green plants in a transparent container with several knuckle-sized red fruits on it, which looked very attractive.
"What? Do you like it?" He Yunyi said with a smile, "This is a kind of ingredient that we restored in chapters. It should be called strawberries. After passing the safety inspection, I will send you some to taste."
"Thank you so much." Ruan Tang didn't refuse. He likes strawberries as he prefers sweet and sour taste.
Then they went to the second group, which was responsible for restoring small animals.
They use advanced genetic technology to cultivate cells into embryos, and then grow them slowly, recording their size, growth trajectory, living habits, feeding methods, sex and reproduction methods, and whether they can be eaten, etc. Of course, because the meat base is edible, in most cases they can only be classified according to the difficulty and appearance of the animals.
In the corner of the room, there is also a specially designated area, where several reed chickens are raised, and there is also a chicken coop that was built crudely.
Ruan Tang saw a few scientific researchers squatting next to the chicken coop, staring at the hen that was brooding and hatching eggs, and whispering while holding the chicken, the picture was really suffocating.
At this time, Ruan Tang noticed that there were three kittens in a transparent container, one with light orange fur, one with gray, and one with pure white. They should have just been bred recently. The cat didn't even open its eyes, it could only open its pink mouth softly and call, it looked so cute that Ruan Tang almost couldn't walk.
"Like it?" He Yunyi asked with a smile.
"Well, but this should not be eaten..." Ruan Tang was afraid that he would say "if you like it, I will give you one to eat", so she rushed to say something first.
"I know you can't eat it. This animal is called a cat. It was the favorite captive pet of people on the ancient earth. It looks really cute. It should be very marketable when it is successfully bred. If you like it, I will give you one in the future."
Ruan Tang immediately said pleasantly: "Really? Thank you Brother He!"
The third group is responsible for restoring large animals, which is much more complicated to breed than small animals, and the cycle will be relatively longer. In addition to the restored pigs, cattle and sheep, Ruan Tang also saw deer and horses being bred.
The fourth group is responsible for restoring aquatic animals and plants, so there are water tanks everywhere, just like an aquarium. Seeing a large number of fish and shellfish marked to be tested, Ruan Tang felt that he was not far away from the day when he could have a good time.
The ingredients restored from the research and development area undergo a series of tests. After confirming that they can be cultivated normally, they will be sent to the cultivation area for breeding. After reaching a certain amount, they can be sold to the public. As for household appliances such as kitchen utensils, they are all developed by the seventh laboratory.
After the visit to the R&D area, the two returned to the first group. He Yunyi had asked someone to bring over the soybeans that Ruan Tang had brought.
He Yunyi clapped his hands and called all the researchers of the first team over, and then said: "This is the new four-star chef of the empire, Ruan Tang, who is also a special advisor to our Academy of Sciences. He is here today to demonstrate how to process soybeans. "He took out the content of the discussion with Ruan Tang in the office and briefly said it again, which immediately made a group of researchers' eyes brighten, and they looked at Ruan Tang with enthusiasm.
"As expected of a genius chef, he has more ideas than others!"
"Yeah, I think I've got some ideas."
"Me too… "
A group of people looked at each other, and looked at Ruan Tang more eagerly: "Hey, don't this be an apple tree spirit?"
Ruan Tang didn't know their psychological activities, but felt that the eyes of these people were all green when they looked at him, so he couldn't help shaking his body, and decided to make a quick decision and leave this place of right and wrong.
He used the remaining soybeans and physalis to demonstrate the process of making tofu again, explaining: "Depending on the degree of solidification, it can be made into four kinds of foods: soybean milk, tofu nao, tofu flower, and tofu. Soymilk is a finished product, and the other three are semi-finished products, with a little processing, you can make very delicious food."
In addition to soy products, Ruan Tang also briefly talked about dairy products, meat products and flour products, which made the eyes of these researchers shine. The details of these things have been described to He Yunyi before, and He Yunyi has also made detailed records, so they only need to go to He Yunyi to obtain relevant information in a while.
Probably because they were really instructed, after watching the demonstration, this group of people immediately ran back to their own experimental bench, or holding soybeans, or eggs, or other things, and started to talk on the optical brain while chanting. Draw a blueprint. It seems that it won't be long before a lot of new ingredients will appear in the shopping mall.
"It's almost time for me to go back. Thank you for your hospitality today." Ruan Tang looked at the time, it was almost five o'clock, and he felt that it was time to leave.
The Academy of Sciences is more interesting than he imagined, and the atmosphere is more lively. As long as they can really develop what he wants, then his trip today will be worthwhile.
"I should thank you. You have brought us a very good idea. Go back and wait for our good news."
"Okay." Ruan Tang agreed very happily, and then took out the small can of chili oil and handed it to He Yunyi, "Brother He, please bring this can of chili oil back to Major General He, he seems to like spicy food .”
He Yunyi raised his eyebrows slightly, unexpectedly Ruan Tang would still think about his stupid brother.
"It looks like he will be very pleasantly surprised at night." He Yunyi took the chili oil, hooked the corner of his mouth, and then patted Ruan Tang's shoulder kindly, "But it's not a good habit to be biased?"
Ruan Tang understood what he meant, and quickly nodded with a smile, "Okay, next time I will make double."
Declining He Yunyi's offer to send him back, Ruan Tang turned on his optical brain and ordered a hovering car.
There will be a live broadcast tonight, and if he doesn't go back, his audience should wait anxiously.
