Live: Beating the Siberian Tiger violently, this is called Little Lolita?

There are not many plants in the desert, and even less that are edible.

But after all, there are a few things that can be considered specialties.

For example, this squid, or the cold cactus that was just served.

Yes, cacti are edible, but they are a little different from what you usually see.

After Wen Wanwan adjusted the camera, he continued to introduce it to the audience in the live broadcast room.

"The one cut into strips in front of us is an edible cactus. It is native to the Americas and is abundant in Mexico. In 1997, it was introduced from the Mibonta region of Mexico by the Quality Agricultural Products Development Service Center of the Ministry of Agriculture of my country."

"After adaptive cultivation and variety screening, the Mibonta cactus was selected and promoted to the market."

"The fleshy stems of edible cactus can be eaten as vegetables, and the fruits can also be used as natural facial masks."

"This kind of cactus was selected by the Mexicans from more than 300 varieties of cactus as a vegetable. After a long period of cultivation, domestication, and cross-breeding, it was finally brought to the table."

“Edible cactus is rich in potassium, calcium, iron, copper, polysaccharides, flavonoids and low sodium, oxalate-free.”

"Long-term consumption can effectively lower blood sugar, blood lipids and cholesterol, and also has the effects of promoting blood circulation, removing blood clots, anti-inflammatory, moisturizing the intestines and beautifying the skin."

"There are many ways to eat this kind of cactus. The more common methods are pan-frying, stir-frying, deep-frying, boiling, and cold salad."

"Maybe people don't see it much in China, but it's very popular in many countries in Europe and Africa."

"Mibonta edible cactus is highly adaptable to planting, resistant to barren soil, and can be planted on barren hillsides. It grows rapidly and has an annual output of about 10 tons."

"And the harvest period is long. Once planted, it can be harvested for ten to fifteen years."

"But unfortunately, because of the market size of this thing, it is difficult to popularize it now."

"The price of cactus tender slices in my country's current market is eight to fifteen yuan per kilogram, and they are often sold at a low price, so demand exceeds supply."

Wen Wanwan had naturally eaten this thing before and knew its taste.

When I saw this on the menu, I ordered a plate without hesitation.

The audience in the live broadcast room looked at the cold cactus in front of them, and the barrage became more and more lively.

Light roll: [The order has been placed, but it will take three days to be delivered! 】

Jian Qi Jinyun: [I'm so numb, why doesn't the snow area offer free shipping? I'm almost thirty per pound! 】

A Bingbing: [No, I was just a few minutes late. Why are all the online shopping platforms sold out? 】

Edible cactus is in short supply, and there are quite a few people in Wen Wanwan’s live broadcast room now.

Even if only a small number of people are interested in buying it to have a taste, it will be enough to clear the rest of the market.

Many desert areas in China are now trying to plant cacti in an attempt to change their economic model.

At present, the effect is good, but for the market, it will take at least ten years of development to reach the level of a conventional vegetable.

Wen Wanwan stuffed a mouthful of cactus, feeling the faint tofu dregs and the unique taste of cactus fuse in his mouth, and the dryness from the desert was reduced a lot.

After taking several bites, he continued to introduce it to the audience in the live broadcast room.

""Lingnan Medicine Collection" records that cactus is roasted, heated and ironed to treat the initial onset of mastitis and tuberculosis."

"The "Compendium of Materia Medica" records that cactus has a mild taste and cold nature, and its functions are to promote qi and activate blood circulation, clear away heat and detoxify, reduce swelling and relieve pain, invigorate the spleen and stop diarrhea, and soothe the nerves and diuresis."

"If you frequently get angry or have poor Qi and blood due to sitting for a long time, you can try adding something like cactus to your daily meals."

"It's about twice as effective as regular vegetables."

"But cactus itself is cold. Women should eat it once or twice a week, but never eat too much."

Wen Wanwan's words made the audience in the live broadcast room raise questions all over the screen.

Most of the audience was angry and hungry.

No drinking tonight: [MD, that’s because I don’t want to eat it, that’s because I can’t buy it at all! 】

Big-headed baby: [I’m so angry. Where is the place where this thing is produced? I can’t find any for sale! 】

Gu Yue is not Hu: [Who has the channels? I really want to have a taste! 】

The audience in the live broadcast room watched Wen Wanwan eat one mouthful after another, and the word "envy" had been said thousands of times.

Wen Wanwan glanced at the barrage in the live broadcast room and pondered for a moment before speaking.

"If you have time, you can try to buy some mibonta edible cactus seedlings and raise them yourself."

“This seed from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences will produce fresh cactus to eat every year.”

"If you take care of it yourself, the cactus produced within about seven years will be the best tasting."

……

With Wen Wanwan’s introduction, the online shopping platform has once again experienced a cactus seed crisis after experiencing a brief cactus crisis.

The edible cactus sold out in less than ten minutes, first the young leaves and then the seeds.

Wen Wanwan could probably guess what was going on, but she really couldn't meet the needs of the people in the live broadcast room.

Because of the problem of growing cacti, the market in this area is a bit strange.

Most farmers don't like this thing very much. It takes at least ten years to harvest after one year of planting, which makes many people unable to believe that such a good thing exists.

Coupled with the low market acceptance, most of the existing farmers currently cooperate with suppliers and export directly.

As a result, the circle of edible cacti is now not known to outsiders at all.

After a somewhat sumptuous dinner, Wen Wanwan also stretched and took the audience in the live broadcast room to wander around the haven.

The entire haven is about the size of a village, but because the buildings are relatively dense, it seems extremely lively.

Wen Wanwan looked at a photography store not far ahead and was about to go shopping. Who would have thought that he would be blocked by someone in an instant.

"Hello, is this Wen Wanwan, right?"

"it's me."

"We have received a report that you are suspected of illegally capturing my country's second-level protected animals. Please cooperate with our investigation."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wen Wanwan finally understood what was going on.

The Tarim rabbit didn't hide anything when it came to the haven. Many people saw this lazy little guy.

Many people living in desert areas know this animal and know that private capture and breeding is illegal.

"The rabbit is in my room, but this is a misunderstanding. I have proof!"

It was also the first time for Wen Wanwan to encounter this situation, but she didn't have any complaints against the two people in front of her.

It is their dedicated protection that saves many animals from poachers.

The two men, who were obviously plainclothes men, softened somewhat when they saw Wen Wanwan's attitude.

"This is an investigation, not a summons for detention, so don't be nervous."

Although they said so, the positions of the two people still clearly blocked Wen Wanwan's escape. He led the two of them all the way back to the hotel. As soon as he opened the door, the little rabbit rushed to Wen Wanwan's feet, holding his calf with his two front paws.

Wen Wanwan picked up the little guy with a smile, and then explained to the two plainclothes men.

"Wait a moment, I'm looking for ID."

"Not urgent!"

Seeing the appearance of this rabbit, the two of them could probably guess that this was definitely a misunderstanding.

It's not like they haven't seen poachers before. Animals can easily tell whether humans are releasing good intentions or malicious intentions.

If Wen Wanwan was really kidnapped, the little guy would never behave like this.

Wen Wanwan also quickly dug out her veterinary qualification certificate and animal protection work certificate in her suitcase.

These two things are must-haves for practitioners, especially the animal protection work certificate.

Without this certificate, no artificial behavior is allowed on wild animals.

For example, Wen Wanwan's behavior of taking a protected animal away from its original habitat without a certificate is considered poaching. Although it is not serious, it is definitely within three years.

In fact, every year many people go to jail or have criminal records due to this reason.

For example, last year, a farmer on the Changbai Mountain side found two sika deer cubs when they went up the mountain.

As a result, in the past three days, when we went back, the two cubs were almost starving to death.

It was obvious that the doe had an accident for some unknown reason. The farmer followed the principle of kindness and brought it home and fed it with rice soup.

As a result, someone spread the word about this, and the farmer was arrested a week later.

The crime is illegally raising wild protected animals.

Although in the end the court looked at extenuating circumstances and sentenced him to six months' probation and three months' probation, he was not allowed to go to jail.

But after all, a criminal record is left, and the children can no longer take the public examination or enter a state-owned enterprise.

The law is merciless at certain times, just like Wen Wanwan's situation today. If you don't bring your ID, you will definitely be detained.

Two plainclothes men checked Wen Wanwan's ID and checked the specific information through the inland network before they were completely relieved.

"Sorry for causing you any trouble!"

"It's okay, everyone is here for work."

Wen Wanwan didn't pay any attention to this kind of thing. Looking at the slightly younger plainclothes man beside him, he also handed over the rabbit in his hand.

"Want a hug?"

"Ah, is that okay?"

Naturally, this was not a question to Wen Wanwan, but to another plainclothes man.

"Hold him for a while, this little thing is pretty hard to see here."

"Thank you!"

With a smile on his face, the plain-clothes man reached out to take the little rabbit, put it in his hand and rubbed it, his face suddenly filled with satisfaction.

The furry little guy is very cute, especially because he is so small and quiet.

The location they were in charge of was on the edge of the desert. Although there were many plants, there were not many Tarim rabbits.

Even because of the desolation, the people assigned here are called exiles.

They are all exiled. Do you expect people like those by the Tarim River to still be able to enjoy life with two little rabbits in their arms?
"The little guy is so kind. Doctor Wen, are you planning to take him away?"

"If you don't take him away, the little guy was abandoned by the mother rabbit. He will be released in a resource-rich place after leaving the desert."

One sentence made the young plainclothes feel even colder.

At the time of the internal examination, there were ten people in total, corresponding to ten regions.

In terms of force value, he overwhelmed everyone and took first place, and in terms of culture, he was underperformed by everyone.

Therefore, he was nicknamed: Rough Man!
With good physical fitness and no brains, being assigned here is completely the best choice.

After a few years of training in a tough environment and a lot of brainstorming, there will be huge room for future development.

For a reckless man, this is indeed a good path.

But it’s too difficult to hold on!
Although Mangfu has practiced martial arts since he was a child and can endure hardships, that doesn't mean he eats sand every day. Many times he is unable to take a bath for a week due to lack of water.

Now even this cute little guy has to leave the desert, which is even more difficult to accept for the reckless man who already feels that this ghost place is desolate.

"Doctor Wen, you are a professional. Is it really difficult for these little guys to survive in the desert?"

After hesitating for a moment, the reckless man finally asked the question.

He has only been assigned to the desert for a year, but he has already seen many times that scientific expedition groups or conservation organizations took away batches of animals from the desert.

He had seen with his own eyes that several lynxes were so hungry that they were skin and bones.

"It's difficult, but there is always a chance."

Wen Wanwan could probably guess what this plainclothes man was thinking. After all, it was easy to guess what a person with his emotions written on his face was thinking.

"Hey……"

The plainclothes man didn't say anything more, he just let out a long sigh.

He and the old plainclothes man caught no fewer than ten poachers last year, but they still couldn't stop batches of animals from leaving the desert.

For him, who had grown to like this place, it was hard not to feel a sense of despair.

Wen Wanwan really had nothing to do about this situation. The desert was indeed not conducive to the survival of animals.

But it itself is an essential part of the ecology.

"Thank you Dr. Wen. If you've bothered me too much today, we'll take our leave!"

The old plainclothes patted the reckless man on the shoulder and motioned for him to put the little rabbit down.

After Wen Wanwan escorted the two of them out of the hotel, they returned to the room.

The audience in the live broadcast room also fell into a heated discussion because of the plainclothes words. Wen Wanwan took a quick look and understood what the group of people were talking about.

Why can’t deserts disappear completely?
After thinking for a moment, Wen Wanwan also reduced the technical terms and explained to the audience in the most understandable language.

"The desert cannot be eliminated. Many people think that if the desert can be turned into a forest, there will be a lot more space for humans."

"But in fact, most of the formation of deserts is due to climate reasons. If you look carefully at the distribution of deserts in the world, many of them are located just around 30 degrees north and south latitude."

"Moreover, deserts are also an important part of the earth's ecological adjustment. The specific heat capacity of deserts is small and the temperature rises quickly. Therefore, the thermal difference between sea and land is dramatic, which can make ocean water vapor penetrate deep into the land."

"So when we face the desert, we can only choose to manage it, rather than completely turning it into a forest." (End of Chapter)
