The Interstellar’s Expert Plant Tamer

Chapter 90: conference

Views:

The next morning, when Xie Sen and Main had just finished their breakfast, Long Teng and Bai Jiao came to help them move. It is very convenient to have a backpack with space to move. Put all the things in the backpack, and the hands of the four people are still empty.

Xie Sen thought of the scene of unscrewing his luggage and moving his dormitory in the past, and he felt so refreshed!

Maine contacted the landlord and checked out the house. After the formalities were cleared, the four of them went to the new residence.

It took time to tidy up the house. Fortunately, Maine and Long Teng are strong, so they can put the furniture wherever they want, and they don't feel comfortable moving it around.

In less than two hours, Xie Sen and Main's new home was finished. Seeing that it was still early, Xie Sen took out the plant seeds obtained from the Yamu Continent, and found tall tree seeds from them.

Long Teng asked curiously: "What is this for?"

Xie Sen explained the plan of the land next to him: "I'm going to plant the seeds of these trees first." Thinking of the poor soil quality, he took out some watermelon seeds.

After the plants in the system grow, the soil quality can be improved, so that these trees can grow up smoothly.

Hearing this, Long Teng curiously followed them outside with Bai Jiao.

Xie Sen circled the area with white lime powder, Maine dug a hole, he threw the seeds into the hole, and Maine covered the seeds with soil. The two cooperated very well.

Seeing their casual appearance, Bai Jiao couldn't help but said, "Is it really possible to grow a living like this? Why don't I take the seeds to the laboratory to grow and germinate them for you to plant?"

"No need," Xie Sen shook his head, "That's fine."

Wood energy has been withdrawn, and watermelons are planted next to it. He is not worried about the growth of green plants at all.

The four of them moved very neatly, and the seeds were planted in the morning.

At noon, Xie Sen cooked a sumptuous lunch in the new apartment, and invited Xu Da over, thanking him for helping to take care of the contracted beast. After the meal, the three of Xu Da left, and Xie Sen and Main went to the Institute of Botany.

Ma Qun gave Xie Sen permission, and Xie Sen swiped his wristband all the way without hindrance. After asking the staff, he went directly to the cultivation base to find Ma Qun.

Walking into the planting base, Xie Sen's eyes lit up immediately. Not far away, patches of pepper trees grew very lushly, and the green leaves matched with the red fruits were particularly beautiful.

There are still many people standing in the bushes. They walk up and down in the bushes path, bending down from time to time to check, and then make records.

"There." Main said, pointing to the furthest group of horses.

Xie Sen dragged Main along the path beside the chili tree to find the horses. As he walked, he looked at the pepper tree, and the more he looked at it, the happier he became. There are a lot of peppers on the tree, both blue and red, almost half of each.

"Dean Ma." Xie Sen greeted after approaching, pointed to the pepper tree and said, "The red ones are ripe, you can pick them."

The horses were bending over to test the chili tree, when they heard his voice, they straightened up and looked over, with smiles on their faces: "This half is ready to be planted, so that it can continue to grow, and the other half will start picking tomorrow. "

Xie Sen laughed: "Then I'm lucky!"

Ma Qun said with a smile: "I'll give you the first batch of chili peppers. Yours is indispensable. The output is much more than we expected. After half a month, the blue ones will grow up, and the current flowers will bear fruit again at that time."

After Ma Qun finished speaking, he waved to Xie Sen: "Come with me."

Xie Sen pulled Main, and the two followed the horses to the edge of the pepper field. When they got to the side, Xie Sen happily said: "Tomato tree! You have successfully cultivated it!"

The tomato tree is only about two fingers long, but it is very vigorous, and the number is not large. At a glance, there are only twenty or thirty trees, but as long as it can be cultivated successfully, the number is not important at all!

When these trees grow up, they will bear a lot of fruit, and they can be planted in large quantities by saving seeds and sowing.

The horses nodded, looked at the tomato tree with relief for a while, and then looked at Xie Sen: "Thank you very much."

Xie Sen waved his hand: "This has nothing to do with me. The tomato tree was brought back by Researcher Li You, and it has nothing to do with me."

Ma Qun said: "Even if you don't talk about saving him, I still have to thank you. Do you still remember what I said about the failure of tomato cultivation?"

Xie Sen nodded: "Yes, you said so."

Ma Qun looked cautious: "When I contacted you yesterday, I said that there was a new discovery." He looked at the pepper bushes, "Since the pepper trees were transplanted to the ground, we have been very careful and have done various data tests every day."

His eyes fell on Xie Sen's face: "We found that with the growth of peppers, the soil quality of the land where peppers are located is constantly changing, becoming more and more suitable for plant growth."

His eyes were shining brightly: "Later we tested the land near it, and it turned out that they were also affected! We discussed this many times, and in order to confirm this, we purposely planted tomatoes at the location closest to the chili field, and succeeded. Already!"

Xie Sen immediately understood that Adan said that after planting plants, the soil quality can be changed, but the research institute was able to find the problem so quickly because they worked carefully, and he admired it very much.

The horses looked at him: "After that, we tested all the land where the plants were planted. Only the peppers and potatoes you provided will change the soil quality, and the rest of the plants will still not work."

He asked excitedly, "Where do your plants come from? Are your contracted plants grown?"

Xie Sen smiled and said, "Dean Ma, don't forget that there are two types of plants you mentioned. How could the contracted animal plants grow two different plants? Peppers are my contracted plants, and potatoes are found in the wild. .”

The horses pondered: "Did you do anything after you got the potatoes?"

Xie Sen shook his head, the horses frowned, and said to himself: "This is very strange, why can it change the soil like pepper?"

Xie Sen smiled and said, "Maybe you guys fertilized it?"

The horses shook their heads: "No, we have been applying various fertilizers and nutrients to the land, but the nutrients in the land will be lost, and the plants will not be able to absorb them. The peppers and potatoes you give, the land where they are planted and the nearby land, the nutrients can be retained. In the soil, it can also be absorbed by plants, and it will grow well even without fertilization."

Xie Sen blinked: "Ah, it's really amazing!"

Ma Qun looked at his confused face, smiled and said, "You really don't know why?"

Xie Sen said: "I don't even know if you don't tell me!"

The horses thought for a moment: "Do you have any other plants?"

Xie Sen nodded: "Yes, I found a lot of plants when I went out this time, and I just want to give them to you."

Ma Qun showed joy: "Let's go to the office to talk."

When he arrived at the office, Xie Sen took out the seeds and fruits brought back from Yamu Continent, the seeds of watermelon in the system, as well as rice and dragon fruit.

Ma Qun called two researchers to separate the various seeds. When the researchers saw the seeds, they were excited and excited, and carefully put the seeds away.

Ma Qun recorded all the seeds: "Do it according to the old rules or give you a reward?"

"Old rules." Xie Sen didn't hesitate. For him now, plants are more attractive than money, and the way of dividends is definitely more cost-effective in the long run.

Ma Qun nodded, quickly drew up a contract, and both parties signed it.

Xie Sen smiled and said, "Then I won't bother you anymore, I'll contact you if there is something else."

"Wait a moment," the horses raised their hands and stopped him from leaving, "There is one more thing."

Xie Sen looked at him suspiciously, and Ma Qun said: "After the peppers are picked tomorrow morning, the research institute will hold a press conference at noon to announce the availability of peppers. You are the discoverer, it's best to show up."

Seeing Xie Sen's hesitation, Ma Qun said: "I've thought about it, you are a public figure, you are not afraid to show your face. Besides, you are a student of the Department of Botany, and July is the professional assessment month for fresh graduates. Full marks."

Xie Sen almost forgot that he hadn't got his graduation certificate yet. Thinking back to the comprehensive scoring project of the graduation certificate, the exam in March, the internship from April to June, and the professional assessment in July, the comprehensive score must pass before he can graduate in August. certificate.

The whole month of July will be assessed, and I don't know how to test it. If I have to identify plants everywhere, wouldn't it take a lot of time

Thinking of this, Xie Sen immediately agreed. Anyway, he has passed by the live broadcast room many times, so he doesn't have to worry about being known about his appearance: "Okay, I'll come over tomorrow."

Ma Qun said: "The press conference will be held in the lobby on the first floor of a building. You can go there at ten o'clock tomorrow."

Xie Sen agreed, bid farewell to the horses, and left the institute with Maine.

Back at the apartment, Xie Sen went to find the contracted beast, while Maine went to the workshop. After Main arrived at the workshop, he first opened the live broadcast room and projected the screen onto the wall opposite him. After seeing Xie Sen, he began to design the program.

As soon as Xie Sen entered the living area, he heard the voice of the gift broadcast: "... the giant crocodile is awesome, come to the middle of the camera!"

Xie Sen raised his eyebrows, wondering what the giant crocodile did. He swept his eyes and saw the giant crocodile at a glance. The giant crocodile was crawling fast, and Little Silver was lying on its flat and wide back, being carried around by it.

Little Silver seemed very excited, keeping his shell open, like a huge moving lantern.

When Xiaoyin saw Xie Sen, the shell opened and closed, the lights flickered instantly, and the giant crocodile quickly turned around and ran to Xie Sen's side.

Xie Sen touched the giant crocodile's head and asked about its physical condition. The giant crocodile flicked its tail, and the thick tail hit the ground with a loud sound: "My body has recovered!"

Xie Sen glanced at the ground, fortunately there were no cracks, and he tapped the giant crocodile on the forehead: "Does it hurt?"

Giant crocodile: "It doesn't hurt, I don't use force, I can show you with force."

"No," Xie Sen quickly stopped, "This is your residence, please take good care of it!"

The giant crocodile said: "Well, the black panther told me, I will protect our territory!"

Xie Sen smiled, then stretched out his hand to touch Xiaoyin, Xiaoyin's voice was very soft, and his tone was extraordinarily excited: "Asen, I've checked this place all over the place, haha, new friends are amazing, I can go anywhere I want. "

Xie Sen smiled: "As long as you like it."

He went to see the giant bear again. The giant bear was learning to dance with the giant tiger. Xie Sen watched the two giants writhing back and forth, silently holding his forehead.

The barrage was full of 'hahaha', and someone gave a gift, and said specially: "Hahaha, the expressions of the anchors are so funny, let them learn to dance, don't stop them!"

Xie Sen smiled helplessly, both of them stopped, and stretched out their paws towards him at the same time. It touched one with each hand, and the giant tiger said: "Hahaha, the giant bear is very smart! It jumps like a human, definitely Our dancing king!"

Xie Sen burst into laughter: "Where did you learn this?"

The giant bear covered its face with one paw, but it opened its mouth and laughed boldly: "Haha, I still have to study hard. In the live show I watched in the morning, that dancer danced much better than me."

The giant tiger said: "We don't talk about modesty here! You are the king of dancing, didn't you hear what that person said? He has been studying for more than ten years, and you only study for an hour!"

The giant bear immediately said: "Yes, I am the King of Dance!"

Xie Sen: The poisoning is a bit deep... He saw the Dire Bear like this, and didn't ask about its physical condition, and he knew it was very good.

At this time, two giant leopard beasts walked over with graceful steps. The black panther raised the pad, and Xie Sen rubbed it: "What's wrong?"

The black panther turned to look at the gate: "We want to go out. I saw it when I came here. A large area here is fenced off. It's all your territory, right?"

Xie Sen: "..." Why does the word "site" sound a bit strange? He said: "Yes."

Black Panther said: "Then can we go to your territory to play?"

Xie Sen thought about it. He and Maine built a high fence around the land, which is considered a closed place. The contracted beasts have high IQs and are very obedient, so it is not a big problem to go out.

After all, the contracted beast is used to living in the forest, and has been staying indoors. No matter how large the area is, it is not as comfortable as outside.

He nodded: "Yes, but don't go out of the fence. There are a lot of seeds planted in the field outside, so be careful not to step on them."

"No problem." Black Panther nodded his head and tilted his head towards the door, "Let's go!"

Xie Sen walked towards the door with a smile, and two giant leopards followed behind him. The other contracted beasts saw him open the door and quickly ran over from everywhere.

He laughed, it seems that they all want to go outside!

"'Little Spot Guardian' gave the host a watermelon rain, ah, host, where are you going to take them! It's going beyond the camera!"

Xie Sen said: "They want to go out, um, they may go out often in the future, and I will ask someone to install a camera outside later, and it will not affect the live broadcast in the future."

After he finished speaking, he told the contracted beasts the precautions, and then opened the door to the maximum to facilitate the contracted beasts' entry and exit.

Seeing the spacious, open-air land, the contracted beasts screamed excitedly and rushed out. Xie Sen quickly called them to stop and taught them to identify the land where the seeds were planted so that they would not step on it.

The contracted beasts ran away in all directions, avoiding the field where the seeds were planted, and ran around happily.

The giant crocodile carried Xiaoyin on its back, and after running for a while, it returned to Xie Sen. Xiaoyin closed the shell, and Xie Sen put his hand on the shell. Xiaoyin softly said, "Asen, can we build a pool outside?" , I want to bask in the sun in the water."

The giant crocodile's tail twisted, and the tip of its tail lightly touched Xie Sen: "I want to too!"

Xie Sen looked at the land and thought about it. After the trees grew up, it seemed better to have a river dotted among the trees, and it was more convenient to water, and at the same time, it could meet Little Silver's needs.

He nodded: "OK, I'll arrange it."

He walked around, looked around, and made a quick decision to extend a man-made river from the water area of the living area to the top of the diagonal of the wall, which is the length of the largest span.

In this way, it is convenient to water the saplings. At the same time, Xiaoyin and water-loving animals can go to and from the outside and the living area through the artificial river.

After thinking about it, he immediately contacted the construction company, and then contacted the staff who installed the lens. Both parties said they would come to the door as soon as possible.

Twenty minutes later, Xie Sen's bracelet rang. It was the notification tone of the doorbell. The situation outside the door was also displayed on his bracelet. At the same time, the doorbell at the door rang.

The giant python was closest to the gate, and it curled up in the shadow of the wall. When it heard the sound, it raised its head and leaned against the wall to look out.

"Ah..." Suddenly, several screams came.

The eyes of the giant python Biyu blinked, then retracted its head and stretched it towards Xie Sen.

Xie Sen was going to open the door remotely, but when he saw this, he ran over and tapped on its head. The giant python whispered, "I didn't mean to."

Xie Sen smiled and said, "It's okay." He stepped forward and opened the door.

Some of the five people at the door looked terrified and some looked excited. When they saw the rest of the contracted beasts looking at them curiously inside the door, their emotions doubled.

Xie Sen said: "Please come in, you don't have to be afraid, as long as you have no malicious intentions, they will not attack you."

The five people came back to their senses and entered the door. Xie Sen closed the door, and first asked the person who installed the lens: "I hope the entire land can be included in the lens."

The staff said: "A spherical global camera can do it, but the price is a bit expensive, and the minimum is 200,000."

"That's it." Xie Sen made a final decision, and the staff agreed. After inspection, they chose the most middle position and started the installation.

Xie Sen told the construction company about his plan for the location of the man-made river, and at the same time made a request: "At least three meters wide, and the river bottom and walls are inlaid with white tiles. How long will it take to complete?"

The head of the construction said: "If we rush to finish the work, we can finish it today, but if we need to call people again, the relevant water diversion facilities and river channels will be started at the same time, so it will be much faster."

Xie Sen looked at the contracted beasts gathered and saw the nervous and excited look of the staff, and immediately said: "Then call someone and finish it today."

The construction head didn't delay, so he called ten people over, each of them was driving an excavator, a soil transporter and other tool vehicles, and the construction head neatly arranged the work content for them, one person was in charge of a section, and the work started at the same time.

Seeing this, Xie Sen finally understood why the construction team's construction efficiency was so high.

The construction head glanced at the staff, checking the progress of their work, and suddenly paused: "My God, what is that?"

Xie Sen looked over and saw that the giant armored beast was digging a hole. It was so fast that it dug a short section in one go. Xie Sen laughed: "It's a giant armored beast, it likes to dig holes."

The construction head looked envious: "It would be great if I could work in our company!"

Xie Sen smiled, and walked to the giant armored beast: "If you are tired, rest." The giant armored beast nodded, buried its head and started digging again, its tail wagging happily from side to side.

Xie Sen looked at it for a while, and couldn't stand it under the sun, so he talked to the staff and the contracted beasts, and prepared to go back to the apartment.

The construction head was taken aback: "Well, how can this work, so many high-level contracted beasts are here, what if... what if something happens?"

Xie Sen comforted him: "Look, they all play their own way, and nothing will happen. As long as you don't hurt them, they won't hurt you."

When he returned to the apartment, Maine was coming down from the second floor when he walked into the hall, and Xie Sen told about the construction of the river.

Maine hugged him and sat on the sofa, poured him a glass of water: "Take a break."

At ten o'clock the next day, Xie Sen and Maine arrived at the lobby of the Botanical Research Institute on time. Xie Sen swiped his wristband and entered the arena. He was shocked when he entered. camera equipment.

Xie Sen lowered the brim of his hat subconsciously. When he and Maine came, they each wore a peaked cap, which covered most of their faces, and no one noticed them along the way.

"A Sen." A person walked over quickly, Xie Sen raised his head, saw that it was Li You, and quickly greeted him with a smile.

Li You smiled and said, "This is the reception area for the reporters and the lottery audience. Come with me, and I'll take you to the backcourt."

In the backcourt, Xie Sen saw Dean Ma, who had obviously dressed up specially, and several familiar researchers, and greeted each other. Ma Qun said: "Don't be nervous, the press conference will end within an hour. When your name is said, you go out and say hello."

Xie Sen nodded, when the staff shouted: "Dean Ma, you still have two minutes to give a speech."

Ma Qun got up and straightened his clothes, pointing to the wall in the back court: "You can watch the live broadcast here, you can watch it for a while, and just stand next to me when you go out." After he finished speaking, he walked out quickly.

Li You called Xie Sen and Maine to sit down and watch the live broadcast together.

Xie Sen looked at the popularity in the lower left corner, which was more than 52 million, and it was still rising rapidly. He was surprised: "Is this the real-time number?"

Li You nodded: "The live broadcast is for the entire Brant Star, and it is not open to aliens. The number of people is not too large."

Xie Sen was stunned, isn't that too much

The host made a short opening remark, and then said: "Next, I would like to invite Dean Ma Qunma of the Institute of Botany to give a specific introduction."

Ma Qun walked up to the stage, with his usual elegant smile and bright eyes: "Welcome everyone, today we are going to announce a new type of vegetable—pepper. This vegetable was very popular in the past, and it is also a kind of vegetable seasoning."

The barrage immediately praised: "Principal Ma is a good guy, straight to the point, without ink stains at all!"

"Dean Ma is so handsome today!"

Ma Qun paused for a while, then continued: "After careful data analysis, the results we obtained are very gratifying. Peppers are rich in vitamins and trace elements, among which vitamin E is closely related to the fertility rate. We are optimistic that it may improve The problem with the plummeting fertility rate right now."

All of a sudden, a huge voice of discussion came from the crowd at the press conference. Everyone's face was very excited, and the live broadcast room where the smart barrage had been set up was full of barrage.

"Really? My God, sell it quickly, I want to buy it!"

"I want to eat! I can eat a hundred catties!"

After Ma Qun waited for the scene to quiet down, he continued: "Currently, the research institute still has a variety of plants under research and planting, and I will meet you one by one soon."

His tone was full of passion: "I believe that the day when we can eat vegetables and fruits at any time is not far away. One day, we will return to a normal diet and no longer need nutrient solution. All newborns will be healthy and strong! "

The audience at the scene responded one after another, and the barrage was also swiped by the "Botanical Research Institute Niubi".

Ma Qun said: "This is the result of everyone's hard work over the years. Many people have sacrificed their lives for this. I would like to express my deep gratitude to all those who have contributed to the cause of plants."

He paused as he spoke: "Now, I will introduce the discoverer of chili to everyone - Xie Sen, thank him."

Suddenly, there was thunderous applause.

Maine shook Xie Sen's hand, and Xie Sen's nervous mood suddenly calmed down. He tilted his head and smiled at Maine, got up and walked out.

As soon as he went out, facing many cameras, he couldn't help feeling nervous, with a standard smile on his face: "Hello everyone."

Discussions came from below, Xie Sen heard the words 'live broadcast' and 'contracted beast', and it was no surprise that he was recognized.

Ma Qun thanked him again, and then said, "That's all for the information about chili peppers, and the next step is the questioning session."

The reporters' questions basically revolved around peppers, and the biggest focus was on the nutrition of peppers. Ma Qun answered them neatly. Xie Sen didn't have to worry about it, he just nodded in agreement, which almost became his subconscious action.

Ma Qun suddenly asked: "Asen, can you cook?"

Sean nodded.

Ma Qun said: "Okay, finally, according to the usual practice, let the pepper discoverer show us how to eat it!"

Xie Sen raised his head that had just been lighted, and was stunned, so now demonstrate cooking

Ma Qun asked: "What do you want to do? What ingredients do you want to prepare?"

Xie Sen watched the staff move the kitchen equipment to the stage, and thought for a while: "The fish with tender meat, it's best to bring them in slices."

Soon someone delivered a large bowl of fish fillets, Xie Sen looked at the chili and salt, and deeply felt that there were too few such condiments.

He thought as he burned the oil, how did the vinegar and soy sauce work? It seems to be made of food, maybe ask a culinary student? It's sad to have food without seasoning!

Boiled fish with limited condiments is really good. He stir-fries chili peppers to make chili oil, puts salt and water into the fish fillets, and the spicy taste spreads quickly in the venue.

The reporters and audience at the scene stretched their necks neatly to see the pot, their saliva was hooked by the spicy taste, and they swallowed silently. Someone couldn't help shouting: "It's so delicious! Dean Ma, I'm applying for a taste!"

"I'm here, I'll try it!" The reporters and audience at the scene raised their hands, eager to try.

The lens shows a close-up of the inside of the pot. There is a layer of red chili oil floating on the white fish fillets, which looks extraordinarily gorgeous and delicious.

The barrage exploded: "Dean Ma! I'm at the gate of the research institute, let me in!"

"I'm going too. Looking at the expressions of the people present, I'm simply too curious! What does it smell like!"

"Dean Ma also swallowed, I saw it!"

"Tell me! When will it start selling? If I can't get it, I'll chop it off!"
