Into Unscientific Chapter 581

  Chapter 581 The person who shouldn't appear!

   Right now.

  Looking at the plastic bag in Chen Shutong's hand in front of him.

  Wang Ensheng's expression was faint

   Confused.

  Although his current position is the person in charge of the Jingxi County People's Armed Forces Department, he belongs to the standard "big boss" in everyone's perception.

   But no matter how thick it is, he still knows rice.

   Don't say anything else.

   Let's talk about the annual autumn harvest in Jingxi County.

  As soon as the autumn harvest comes, the officers, soldiers and militiamen of the Ministry of People's Armed Forces will temporarily take off their military uniforms and go to the various communes below to help collect grain.

  Bagui, where Jingxi is located, is in the south of China. The type of cultivated land is paddy field, and the main food crop is rice.

  Whether it is rice cultivated by farmers or wild rice, Wang Ensheng is no stranger to their appearance:

  The inflorescence is about 30 cm long, with rough edges and corners, and bends downward when mature.

  The two sides of the flower spike are very flat, generally oblong oval or oval.

  But the flower spikes of the rice plant in Chen Shutong's hands are somewhat different from what Wang Ensheng knew.

  It is a little smaller than ordinary rice, and the spikes are slightly split, as if they are dry due to lack of water.

how to say

   Looks a little wimpy, doesn't it?

  Seeing Wang Ensheng's surprised expression, Chen Shutong shook the rice plant in his hand again, and asked:

   "Captain Wang, do you also feel that this rice plant is a bit strange?"

  Wang Ensheng came back to his senses and nodded slightly:

   "Professor Chen, who looks a little weird, like he is malnourished, how did you find this thing?"

  Chen Shutong pointed to a bush with lush weeds in the distance, and explained:

   "Hey, didn't I collect soil samples over there before, but when I dug the soil, I saw a small piece of wild rice."

   "There are about seven or eight plants of those wild rice plants, and they all look like this. They don't look like single plants with malnutrition, so I just took a sample."

   "After I go back, I plan to ask the comrades from the Institute of Agricultural Sciences to take a look. Recently, they are collecting crop samples. After a special sample is adopted, it can be exchanged for a dime."

  Wang Ensheng nodded clearly:

"I see."

  Wild rice is very common in this day and age, after all, it is itself a standard crop at low altitudes.

   As long as the altitude is below 600 meters, where the sun is sufficient and the humidity is suitable for ditches and swamps, wild rice can basically be seen.

  Chen Shutong found the wild rice not far from the waterfall, needless to say the source of the humidity.

  At the same time, there are black soldier flies decomposing feces here, and the soil quality is extremely suitable for the growth of various plants.

  In addition, the terrain and sunshine meet the relevant requirements, so it is completely reasonable for wild rice to appear here.

  As for the rewards mentioned by Chen Shutong

   This can be regarded as an official reward in this period, which belongs to some kind of "expanded" species statistics method.

   When encountering special plants or crops, they can be collected and sent to local crops for identification. If they are adopted, they will usually be rewarded.

   Many special plants and even bird samples in China were discovered in this way, but during the period, some people with ulterior motives forged samples to cheat money.

   Later, as domestic sampling capabilities became stronger and stronger, this kind of reward was gradually canceled, which can be regarded as a product of the times.

Of course.

  This weird rice plant is just an episode for Wang Ensheng and Chen Shutong, not the main course.

   So fast.

  They turned their attention back to the black soldier fly and began to collect the larvae of this bug.

   Two days later.

  221 base.

  The recovery room of the staff hospital.

   Right now.

  The chief physician of the hospital, Lin Yu, was holding a small iron stick, and gently poked on the sole of a black foot:

   "Close your eyes and feel it carefully. Comrade Han Li, do you feel it?"

  After Lin Yu finished speaking.

  Xu Yun, who had his eyes closed, pondered for a while before slowly opening his eyes and shaking his head slightly:

"no feeling."

   Hear this statement.

  Lin Yu frowned suddenly.

  Xu Yun noticed Lin Yu's little action keenly, and couldn't help asking:

   "Doctor Lin, is my situation very bad?"

  Lin Yu was silent for a moment, and finally nodded slightly, admitting:

   "It's really not optimistic. After all, Comrade Han Li, it's been almost two months since you woke up."

   "It is obviously impossible to recover at this time, and it is not realistic to get out of bed and walk normally—you are not a sports student."

   "But in theory, no matter what, the feeling of the limbs should be restored."

   "At least. The sole of the foot shouldn't be poked with four holes and still feel nothing."

  Xu Yun:

  There seems to be something strange about this sentence?

"Of course."

   Then Lin Yu smiled and waved his hands again, comforting:

   "People's physiques cannot be generalized. For example, I know a volunteer soldier who once used cover in an extremely angry situation and used stones to kill three devils who surrounded him and held automatic rifles across the sea."

   "Therefore, Comrade Han Li, there may be some differences in your physical functions compared to ordinary people, so your recovery is relatively slow."

   "Anyway, you don't have to have too much psychological burden, and you will always get better if you take care of yourself slowly."

  Xu Yun also nodded.

   Actually.

  His mentality is much better than Lin Yu imagined, and it can even be said that there is no fluctuation.

after all

  This body is not his real body.

  Although it is definitely better to be able to recover and go to the ground than sitting in a wheelchair, but if he is really paralyzed, it will not make him lose all hope.

   It's a big deal to be Hawking in the copy.

  Anyway, this is his home, and no one will force him to go to Lolita Island to prove the no-hair theorem of black holes.

   "Xiao Han!"

   Just as Xu Yun was thinking.

  The figure of Lao Guo suddenly appeared at the entrance of the recovery room:

   "Xiao Han, good news, the larvae of the Black Soldier Fly have been found! The first batch of samples just arrived at the base half a day ago!"

  Xu Yun was shocked when he heard the words, and suddenly turned his head to look at Lao Guo:

   "Guo Gong, have you found the gathering point of the Black Soldier Flies so quickly?"

To know.

  Before, in order not to make his words and deeds too abnormal, Xu Yun gave Li Jue and the others a total of several locations for candidates—several of which even crossed provinces.

   Except for Jingxi.

   It also includes Sichuan Province and Fujian Province, which basically refers to wherever there are many mountains.

   The result was unexpected.

  The efficiency of the above is so high, it only took three days to find and send the black soldier fly larvae to the base?

  See this scenario.

  Xu Yun also ignored today's rehabilitation arrangements, and immediately said to Lao Guo:

   "Guo Gong, where is the larva now?"

   "At Professor Zheng's place."

  Lao Guo mentioned a name that Xu Yun is not very familiar with, but it sounds like it should be the person in charge of a branch responsible for animal breeding.

   Then he looked at Lin Yu again, and asked tentatively:

   "Doctor Lin, look."

  Lin Yu heard the voice of Lao Guo's words, and could only helplessly spread his hands:

   "Okay, today's rehabilitation is cancelled, come back tomorrow."

   "Little Qiao, work hard and accompany Comrade Han Li there."

   Xiao Qiao saluted Lin Yu with a smile:

   "Decree!"

   Then under the guidance of Lao Guo.

  Several people quickly took the special seats of the employee train and arrived at the 15th branch factory located in the southwest of the 221 base.

  The fifteenth factory area is the base's tap water plant, which is used to supply the base's daily water.

   But in addition to the water supply function.

  There are several laboratories for various purposes around the 15th factory area.

  These laboratories do not have too much chemical pollution and potential safety hazards, such as the production and processing of some small precision instruments, or

   Microbiological testing laboratory.

  When Xu Yun, Qiao Caihong and Lao Guo arrived at the scene.

  Qian Bingqiong and factory director Li Jue have already arrived in this laboratory first.

   After entering the house.

   "Old Qian, Lao Li."

  Old Guo first greeted Qian Bingqiong and Li Jue, and then looked at another bald middle-aged man at the scene:

   "Professor Zheng, how is the analysis going?"

   This bald middle-aged man is named Zheng Yi, and he is one of the directors of biomedicine at the base.

   But it is different from Lin Yu's clinical medicine.

  Zheng Yi is mainly responsible for the prevention and treatment of various viruses and pathogenic bacteria. Biology and medicine are more inclined to the former, which is somewhat similar to Xu Yun's real situation.

   Heard Lao Guo's question.

  Zheng Yi pointed to a small box not far away, and said:

   "Here, the first batch of Black Soldier Fly larvae are here, a total of ten 1X1X0.2 boxes."

   "The specific number of larvae has not been counted, but according to sampling analysis, there are about 30,000 to 40,000 larvae in the ten boxes—together with unhatched eggs."

  Seeing this, Lao Guo led Xu Yun to a box, and took a few glances with his head.

  As Zheng Yi introduced.

  The size of the box is about 1X1X0.2, without a lid.

  However, the inside of the upper half of the box wall has been covered with a layer of thick liquid similar to escape fluid to prevent the bugs inside from escaping.

  I saw this moment.

  The sand in the box has been sifted out, and the box is full of thick, light yellow larvae that are constantly wriggling and making rustling sounds.

   Then Zheng Yi also came to Lao Guo's side, pointed to a few grasses on another table and explained:

   "Director Guo, these are several pastures that we picked up from the Jinyintan Grassland."

   "This is alfalfa grass"

   "This is ryegrass

   "This is white clover"

   "This is red clover"

   "According to our preliminary observations, these larvae showed a high feeding preference for several pasture grasses."

   Finished speaking.

  Zheng Yi took a few clover grasses from the table, folded them into several sections, and threw them into the box.

  Shushasha—

   These few clover grasses are like fat meat thrown into a hot oil pan, instantly causing a burst of boiling in the 'pot'.

   Less than a few seconds.

  These larvae quickly used the alfalfa as the base, and gathered densely together, forming several 'long dragons' like ears of wheat.

  This is a somewhat sanguine plot, it looks like Cthulhu.

   I don't know if it's an illusion.

  Old Guo seemed to hear the sound of chewing

   After a while.

  Old Guo just came back to his senses, subconsciously glanced at Xu Yun, and asked Zheng Yi:

   "Professor Zheng, I wonder if the components of these black soldier fly larvae have been tested?"

  Zheng Yi nodded, and led everyone to another experimental platform.

  There are several glass containers on this experimental bench, and some 'meat paste' can be seen faintly in them.

   Then Zheng Yi picked up a pair of small tweezers, tapped the petri dish a few times with the tip, and explained:

   "Director Guo, according to our preliminary tests, the protein content of these larvae is indeed very high."

   "The more is as high as 45%, the less is 35%, and the average is about 40%."

   "A larger larva can basically produce one gram of protein steadily."

  Old Guo heard the words, and his whole body suddenly stagnated.

   After regaining consciousness.

  He hurriedly asked:

   "Professor Zheng, what about its pathogenic bacteria?"

   "Pathogenic bacteria."

  Speaking of pathogenic bacteria, Zheng Yi could not help but sigh:

   "According to our preliminary tests, these larvae basically do not contain pathogenic bacteria such as Salmonella, Shigella, and Staphylococcus aureus."

"On the contrary, Escherichia and Citrobacter have some manifestations, but the proportion is not high, and long-term use will not cause obvious harm to the human body-let's put it this way, the proportion of Escherichia is only one-fifth of that of locusts. one."

   "And this is the proportion of the flora of the first generation of larvae in the wild. In the case of artificial breeding for multiple generations, the proportion of these flora will be even lower."

   Well known.

  PCR technology was proposed in 1985, which is a core technology of modern microbial detection.

  But just like the IPHONE4 belongs to an epoch-making model, but it is not the first smart phone.

   Long before the emergence of PCR technology, there were some microbial detection methods in the biological world.

   Actually.

  The standard node for the emergence of automated microbial detection technology was just a year ago, but there is no way to master it in China now.

  In this day and age.

  The main method of domestic microbial detection is to make a 1:10 suspension of the substance to be tested, and then conduct a bacterial drug susceptibility test.

  This method is very simple and fast, and results can be obtained within three hours.

Of course.

  This time corresponds to the limited accuracy of the data—normally, it is difficult to produce results if the Petri dish is less than ten hours old.

   But no matter how limited the precision is, it is still quite easy to judge 'yes' and 'no'.

   In other words.

   Now it is basically certain that the Black Soldier Fly larva that Xu Yun mentioned.

   It does have high nutritional value!

   Dash, non-toxic nutritional value!

   As for its taste

joke.

  I've been drinking elm soup these days, what else do I care about the taste?

  Think here.

  Old Guo quickly turned his head and exchanged glances with Qian Bingqiong and Li Jue.

   Then Li Jue took a deep breath and looked at Zheng Yi solemnly:

   "Old Zheng, I'm afraid I will have to work hard for you next."

   "You have to work out a feasible breeding plan for black soldier fly larvae within three days, maybe five days."

   "In about a week, we will have a large number of black soldier fly larvae delivered—the number will start at a few hundred thousand."

   "There are also the breeding temperature and suitable conditions for black soldier fly adults, etc. Old Zheng, your task is very difficult."

  According to what Xu Yun said.

  The male and female black soldier flies basically only live for less than ten days, including the development period of the eggs, which is only one month.

   Predictably yes.

  Once the base starts breeding black soldier flies, their reproduction speed is likely to appear an extremely terrible number

  At the same time, how to prevent the adults from escaping from the breeding site and the temperature conditions of the specific breeding are also things that require a complete plan.

   Therefore, what Li Jue explained is very important, and it can even be said to be related to the lifeline of the base.

  If the current batch of black soldier flies are really raised to death, the rabbits may not be able to find another black soldier fly gathering point of this size in a while.

  But Zheng Yi, who was on the opposite side, had an excited expression on his face.

after all

  Due to the limitation of technological level these days, a non-applied biologist like him is usually rather boring.

   In a sense.

   Their laboratory is one of the few 'mascots' in the entire base, and there is almost nothing to do while eating dry food.

   such as the recent period.

  The laboratory is already free enough to help cut donkey hair

  From the completion of the base to the present.

   This is the first time the entire laboratory has received such an important task.

  While feeling the pressure, Zheng Yi was also quite excited.

  I saw him push his chest out vigorously, and said loudly:

   "Director, don't worry, I promise to complete the task on time!"

   Li Jue's gaze stayed on Zheng Yi's bald head for a while, and he nodded reassuringly.

  People with this kind of strong hairstyle are probably quite reliable—except for a logistics leader.

"Oh, right."

   Then Li Jue thought of something again, and asked Zheng Yi:

   "Old Zheng, I heard how many other comrades arrived at the base with these bugs?"

   "I have a meeting with Comrade Bingqiong this morning, and I haven't met them yet."

  Zheng Yi nodded and pointed to the side:

   "That's right, a few comrades are next door, please follow me."

   Then Zheng Yi left the laboratory with a few people, and went straight to another room—protective clothing for microbiology laboratories will not be popularized in China until twelve years later, and now they only wear hoods and masks.

   This room is not big, about 30 square meters.

   There is also a somewhat dilapidated ping-pong table in the middle, which looks like a lounge, and some entertainment activities are usually carried out.

  When everyone arrived in the house.

  There are five men sitting in this room, one of them is in a wheelchair.

   Then Zheng Yi took the initiative to walk among several people, and made an introduction on his own initiative:

   "Factory Director, Comrade Bingqiong, Director Guo, and Comrade Han Li, let me introduce you."

   "These are experts who participated in the domestic crop seminar in Baise. They discovered something on the way to the conference, so they were specially approved by the capital and arranged to the base."

   "The one sitting in the wheelchair is Professor Yang Kaiqu, and the four are Professor Hou Guangjiong and Professor Guan Xianghuan, and..."

   "Comrade Zhou Kaida, a student of Professor Yang Kaiqu, and Comrade Yuan Guoliang, a teacher of Anjiang Agricultural School, a student of Professor Guan Xianghuan."
