I handed over to another world

Chapter 56: Breeding Creatures
Soon, Chen Lin got his wish and went to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences as arranged by Qi Ming.

His status as a special observer was taken seriously enough that the dean even came out to greet him personally.

This also gave Chen Lin a feast for the eyes again.

There are more than 20 kinds of fish assigned to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, most of which are edible.

Chen Lin also ate the "flat-headed fish" he saw in the illustrated book. As Qi Ming said, the pickled fish was extremely delicious.

As for the angler fish inside, I can only think about it temporarily because I didn’t get a share.

After the meal, the dean took Chen Lin to the backyard to let the special observers see the experimental fields they had planted.

The experimental field is not very large, but Chen Lin can already see green wheat seedlings on it.

"Normally, it germinates in a week, but here it germinates in two days."

The dean pulled out a wheat seedling from the ground and gestured with his hand, "The growth is much stronger than that on the earth. This is the fifth day, and it is already comparable to the growth over there in a month."

Chen Lin was reminded by the dean of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences and thought of the growth cycle of wheat on earth, which is usually planted in October every year and harvested in May or June of the following year.

"...But according to the growth momentum here, the wheat planted will be harvested in just over a month."

The dean looked at Chen Lin with a smile: "This is still a conservative estimate."

"It's faster than I thought... Is it because of the soil or the climate?"

"All."

The dean spoke a little more cautiously, "But the soil is a bigger reason. We have already analyzed it and found that the farmland opened up in the dense forest here is standard black soil and is rich in humus."

"Arable land contains many rare elements that are not found in earth's soil, and some of them may significantly improve the growth of crops."

"Compared to the other side of the earth, the climate here is more suitable for the growth of crops."

Chen Lin nodded, this was actually what he expected.

When he first entered here, Yang Li also made lofty ambitions to transform large areas of dense forest land into cultivated land to grow crops.

Chen Lin was still full of passion at the time, and he and Yang Li actually had similar ideas.

At present, the work of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences has begun. Although it is a bit slow, it at least means that it is taking action.

"It will take at least another month to plant wheat. The experimental field on the right is growing a crop we discovered here."

The dean pointed to the experimental field on the right and said, "Maybe the growth rate is not that fast. It has been five days and it has only grown a little."

Chen Lin curiously asked what kind of crop it was, and the dean made a gesture.

From his remarks, Chen Lin can somewhat have an expectation in mind.

This thing may belong to a variety of sweet potatoes. In the mature stage, the leaves of this crop alone are about two meters high. The sweet potatoes grown below even require two adults to carry them!
The dean talked with excitement about how they discovered this crop - when the exploration team was dealing with certain cave creatures, they discovered it in the sheltered areas of these caves.

These crops are grown as food by some cave creatures. After the exploration team brought back one plant, it was quickly detected that humans can also eat it, and in comparison, this kind of food tastes pretty good!

The starch content is very high, so there is nothing wrong with treating it as an earth sweet potato.

Except a little bigger.

Only then did Chen Lin realize why there were sunshade facilities on this cultivated field. The emotion was to simulate the living environment of this kind of crop.

"Our next step is to start large-scale planting. We will wait until the results of the experimental field come out. It won't be long." The dean said slowly: "The superiors have approved our plan and have prepared it for us. A piece of farmland has been opened not far away, covering about 1500 acres."

"Really good."

Chen Lin was sincerely happy for him, "Then I'll be waiting for your good news."

"Let's work together!"

The dean nodded with a smile. It was rare for a special observer to come to inspect the work, so he had to show off no matter what.

The experimental field is actually just the beginning of their research.

After all, after crops are planted, they need to be cultivated and hybridized to select the best varieties. When the quality of the varieties is stable, the superior varieties will be promoted and planted... The whole process is extremely time-consuming.

Many of these plants in other worlds need to be tested repeatedly, and many common experiences on earth may not be easy to use here.

In fact, the dean has tried his best to choose the best words to say.

Chen Lin was quite happy. He had never experienced the difficulty of farming, especially farming in a different world.

I just feel that the future is bright, at least there is hope.

For Chen Lin himself, the main purpose of coming here was to earn a living, and he also got to see the experimental fields of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences on the way, which was already an unexpected gain.

……

During the dinner in the cafeteria the next day, Chen Lin and Qi Ming started a small stove again.

This time the two of them ate meat belonging to the silver deer from another world.

This kind of alien venison tastes like beef. The large pieces of venison were stewed by the chef until it was soft, glutinous and fragrant. The two of them ate it solidly with the soup made from some kind of bird eggs and Northeastern rice. support.

After the meal, Chen Lin and Qi Ming went to the back of the cafeteria together, where they saw the alien silver deer being raised.

The deer pen is like a racecourse, with each railing more than three meters high.

Silver Deer Chen Lin had seen this thing before. It was mercury-colored. When he saw it, it was still hitting transport vehicles manically.

The silver deer being raised now have no antlers and have obviously been sawed off.

Groups of silver deer appeared in the field of vision. Chen Lin was obviously a little surprised by the number: "Are so many captured or bred?"

"The ones we catch are more...but this thing is quite capable of giving birth. Did you see those four little deer cubs? They were born in one litter."

The silver deer is much taller than the average deer creature on earth. The male deer is probably over two meters close to three meters, and the female deer is slightly smaller, about two meters.

The breeders behind came up at this time, thinking that Chen Lin and Qi Ming had selected silver deer as ingredients.

Chen Lin casually asked about the growth cycle of these silver deer, and the breeders seemed quite professional.

"According to the data we have estimated during this period, the growth cycle of these silver deer is generally about 6 months."

"It takes six months to grow?"

"Almost, half a year is enough for them to grow to the stage where they can eat...these alien creatures are very capable of gaining weight. As long as they are fed, they can gain almost ten kilograms of weight in a week!"

The breeder laughed as he said this: "This is faster than our sheep. Apart from having a bad temper, this thing can be said to be a perfect ingredient at this stage!"
