Chapter 154 The Research Base in the Forest

"Tiance, are you up yet? I'll be there in about half an hour, pack up and wait for me in the hotel lobby."

Feng Tiance, who was sleeping, was still awakened by the ringtone of his mobile phone. Looking at his watch, it was already 08:30 in the morning.

"Yudie, I'll get up right away, and I'll wait for you downstairs in a while."

Feng Tiance put down the phone, quickly washed his face and brushed his teeth, then packed his luggage, and went to the lobby on the first floor to check out the room.

"Tiance, haven't you had breakfast yet? I bought some, let's eat in the car."

Meng Yudie walked into the hotel on time, and she saw Feng Tiance sitting on the sofa at a glance, and she walked over with a smile.

"Yudie, did you wake up before dawn? Thank you for your hard work. Let's go, let's talk in the car."

Feng Tiance got up, pulled his suitcase, and walked out of the hotel with Meng Yudie.When he came to the parking lot, he saw Meng Yudie stop in front of a jeep, and then opened the door.

"Go up, this is the only car. This car was assigned to our team by the research institute, and it's the only one."

Meng Yudie opened the trunk after getting in the car, Feng Tiance put the trunk in, and sat in the passenger seat.

"Yudie, how long will it take to get from here to your place?"

Feng Tiance finished the breakfast prepared by Meng Yudie in two mouthfuls, and signaled her to leave.

"The mountain road is not easy to walk, and it takes about an hour to get there."

As Meng Yudie said, she started the car and slowly drove away from the parking lot.Her research team on the mountain does not have a full-time driver, so almost everyone can drive, and whoever has something to do can drive down the mountain by himself.

"Tiance, isn't the scenery here beautiful? Here, the highest mountain over there is the main peak of Bozhu Mountain. Our base is halfway up the mountain."

Said it was an hour's journey, but in fact it took almost two hours.However, Feng Tiance was attracted by the topography outside the window along the way, coupled with Meng Yudie's explanations from time to time, it didn't feel boring at all.

There is a management station of Laojunshan Nature Reserve halfway up the mountain, and the base of Meng Yudie's research team is built near the management station.

"Tiance, we've arrived. However, don't dislike the poor conditions here. After all, large-scale construction is not allowed in the core area of ​​the reserve."

After getting out of the car and taking out his luggage, Feng Tiance saw the so-called base, which was actually just a few rows of wooden houses.

"In the primeval forest, it would be nice to have such conditions. Let's go, take me to visit your base."

Feng Tiance didn't care much about these conditions, since he wasn't here for vacation anyway.As soon as I took a step, I saw a man and a woman coming out of the wooden house in the first row.

"Yudie, is this your old classmate? It's quite eye-catching. No wonder someone got up before dawn to pick him up."

The girl looks about 27 or [-] years old, wearing a pair of high myopia glasses, not tall, obviously a little thin.As soon as she walked over, she joked with Meng Yudie and looked Feng Tiance up and down for a long time.

"Hello! Are you Feng Tiance? My name is Yan Qin, and his name is Guo Xiaodong."

Following behind Yan Qin was a very sunny boy, about 22 or [-] years old.He is tall, well-proportioned, with delicate facial features, and he smiles shyly.

"Yan Qin! Don't make jokes, he is a foreign aid I invited." Meng Yudie didn't expect sister Yan to make jokes in front of Feng Tiance, so she quickly reminded her. "Tiance and I haven't seen each other for many years since we came out of school, and we only got in touch not long ago. Don't scare him away with nonsense."

"Haha, it's okay, it looks like you guys get along pretty well with each other. Sister Yan Qin, Brother Guo, nice to meet you."

Feng Tiance automatically ignored the jokes between the women, and stepped forward to greet the two warmly.

Guo Xiaodong just called out "Brother Feng", and then there was no more text.

"Okay, Xiaodong and I still have something to do. Yudie, go and arrange the accommodation of your old classmates. We'll add some dishes in the evening, and let's have a few drinks."

Yan Qin pursed her lips and smiled, habitually adjusted her glasses on the bridge of her nose, and then pulled Guo Xiaodong away.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the room I prepared for you first, and then we'll walk around. Tiance, Sister Yan is a nice person, but her words are a little out of tune, don't worry about it."

Meng Yudie led Feng Tiance to the last row of wooden houses and entered the easternmost room.

"It's okay, Yudie. Do you think we are such stingy people? Wait a moment, I'll put my luggage away and go out right away."

In fact, he felt that it would be better if some words were not explained, otherwise it would be a bit embarrassing for you to say something to each other.

"Well, I'll wait for you outside, and come out when you pack up."

Meng Yudie thought that Feng Tiance was going to change clothes or something, so she hurried out to avoid it.But that's fine, when Feng Tiance came out of the room, the slightly awkward atmosphere before had disappeared.

Five minutes later, Feng Tiance walked out of the cabin, and the two walked and chatted near the base.

"Yudie, with the existing equipment and conditions on your mountain, I'm afraid you can't do detailed research, right?"

Feng Tiance guessed that Meng Yudie's team was stationed in the reserve mainly for first-hand information.As for some high-end analysis, I am afraid that after the sampling, it must be taken back to the research institute to carry out.

Meng Yudie nodded, then shook her head. She has been working in the reserve for several years, and she discovered that there are many problems that are far from being solved by precision instruments.

"Tiance, let's take a look around today. Tomorrow, I'll take you to see the few remaining wild canopy trees in the world. The location over there is relatively far away. It takes a whole day to go back and forth. "

After a moment of silence, Meng Yudie remembered that this old classmate seemed to have a special interest in Huagai wood, so she talked about the itinerary for the two days.

"Okay, let's get acquainted with the environment first today. Besides the canopy wood, I'm also interested in the characteristic plants growing in the reserve. Let's visit slowly."

With Meng Yudie's invitation, it was no problem for Feng Tiance to collect a small amount of plant seeds or branches in the reserve.The more troublesome thing is how to bring him out of the protected area.

Meng Yudie first took him to visit their workplace, which is the first row of wooden houses, and then walked with him to a small nursery base not far from the wooden house.

"Tiance, we are also trying to cultivate the seedlings of the canopy wood here. However, the germination rate of the seeds of the canopy wood is very low, and even if they germinate, the survival rate of the seedlings is less than 50.00%."

The nursery base is divided into many small areas, one of which is dedicated to cultivating canopy wood seedlings.
