Interstellar Farmer

At the docking station of the underground base, after Han Zhen got off the airship, Tan Gongyan came out with two people.

Ever since the first research institute was built on Earth, there have been clear rules. No matter who comes, it is you. You don’t need to alert other researchers who are working. You only need to let the dean in charge be responsible for the reception! Tan Gongyan is the dean here. The former agricultural core research and development group has long been split into several parts, and now they are all at the hospital level. The only thing that has not changed is that they are still directly managed by Han Zhen.

The two people following Tan Gongyan were not outsiders. On the contrary, they were closer to Han Zhen than him. They were both Han Zhen's disciples, two of the eight earliest disciples: Liu Yukun and Yang Yichen.

Han Zhen has accepted four batches of apprentices, and so far the number has reached one hundred. Han Zhen dare not say that he has included all the most talented geniuses in the Chinese race, but these hundred people are definitely the most talented! You must know that the Chinese people have so many talents, how can it be possible that there are only so few, especially after the vigorous promotion of jade fruit and cloud rice among the Chinese people, even an ordinary person will be an elite in all walks of life in the surrounding countries; If you have access to level seven technology, you should be able to reach the same conclusion! The Chinese people are the foundation of our foundation.

Han Zhen does not interfere in the choice of all his apprentices. They all contribute to the family anyway. Does it matter where they go? Among the eight apprentices, only these two were interested in agricultural development. For example, Yang Yichen was very outstanding in resourcefulness. Han Zhen initially thought of letting him go to the staff headquarters to receive training and then put him into a more important position, but in the end, because Yang Yichen loved him more. This business is up to him.

The status of the two of them in the Special Research Institute is also very high now. They are already the deputy dean. They can sit in this position at the age of more than 40 and less than 50 years old. They do not rely on their master-disciple relationship with Han Zhen. , but after making achievements step by step, you are promoted bit by bit. Here, only ability is valued, not relationships! The position of the vice president of the Special Research Institute is also different from before. He can manage dozens of important research projects alone. In the past, it was administrative responsibilities and played a role in coordinating with each other. However, this is no longer needed in the Special Research Institute. There is also a special guarantee agency, and all researchers have only one job, and that is to do research!

Lord (Master)! The three of them shouted respectfully after seeing Han Zhen.

Han Zhen smiled and nodded towards Tan Gongyan, and encouraged the two apprentices a few words. There were no excessive formalities, no need for them. The group of people got on the internal traffic vehicle of the base and entered the experimental hall.

There are thousands of holographic screens of different sizes in the hall. In addition to the displays in various parts of the institute, the content inside is more about the outside situation. Including the planet to which the institute belongs, a total of four planets have implemented Full display. It is not difficult to understand that the institute was chosen here because of the testing environment here. It can be said that the four mineral planets here are four huge testing grounds.

Han Zhen came here once a year ago, pointed out some shortcomings in the research, handed over the new species obtained in those years, and taught them what he learned at that time. The Special Research Institute, which has obtained these, has developed much faster than before, but the time is still too short, so before Han Zhen left last time, he paid special attention to the research and development of several important species. This time, he came here just to see Look at their specific progress.

The Star Tree originally used the Han Star Vine as the base, and then integrated a large number of plants with the same properties. After tens of thousands of optimizations, a new Han Star Vine was formed and renamed the Han Star Tree. According to factors such as differences in planting areas and differences in fruits, , with species ranging from 1 to 884; and then merged with plants that are representative in some aspects such as strong vitality, strong fecundity, fast generation speed, etc., and after tens of thousands of optimizations, it became He discovered a plant that had never existed in the universe, so Han Zhen changed its name to the Fosun Tree. There are many types of Fosun Teng, reaching more than 3,000. After a trip to Mengkong, I learned that the areas to be planted are more and more complex, and there are more and more new species. After Yu Nao’s preliminary calculations, There will be as many as eight thousand kinds of matching! …. In order to distinguish them from the previous species again, and because this time they would be qualitatively formed after completion, Han Zhen simply named these more than 8,000 new species after star trees.

More than 8,000 new species developed according to various environmental changes cannot be developed in a short period of time, such as a day or two or a year or two. Even if Han Zhen stays here all the time, it is impossible. You know This is a new type of subject, involving countless problems, and they have to be overcome one by one. Even if Han Zhen is a god, he must do it step by step. The difficulty is beyond imagination! It is equivalent to re-creating the most powerful plant that has never existed in this universe, a domineering plant that combines the original talents of almost all powerful plants and amplifies them countless times!

It’s not that no one in the universe has ever thought of using plants to mine minerals, and it’s not that no one has found plants that are extremely powerful at absorbing minerals, but they all hit a wall one by one on just one issue of adaptability. However, optimization is Han Zhen's strength, and it is also a unique ability that only he has mastered. Therefore, this problem can be solved only here, and only here.

Zooming in on dozens of holographic screens, more than twenty points in the laboratory and more than a dozen physical planting sites on the planet's surface appeared.

Master, this year we have developed forty-six types of star trees, three of which can be planted directly on Planet No. 1... The growth rate of all star trees is very fast, reaching the 1475 to 1499 of its parent Fuxing tree. The growth data of these twenty five species...are already 600 meters deep underground, and are expected to reach a maximum of 3,000 meters...

Any plant needs nutrients. Before Han Zhen customized a new type of plant like Star Tree, he had already separated its nutritional requirements from the conventional conditions of sunlight, water, temperature, soil, etc. More than 8,000 species may seem like a lot, but when you break them down, you immediately feel that they are normal. For example, among the forty-six species, 16 species do not require sunlight, 19 species require a small amount of light, and the rest are It is specially developed for growth in environments where the temperature exceeds 100 degrees and below 600 degrees and the light is extremely strong; the required nutrients, water and conventional nutrients are already solved in the Fosun tree, but the Fosun tree still needs to be hydrated in the body. And the decomposition of conventional nutrients, but the Star Tree does not use it at all. It uses the basic minerals produced on the barren planet as nutrients. As long as there are some basic minerals, they will have the soil to survive!

Although they are both called star trees and can survive without water and conventional nutrients, they are still very different from each other. For example, the basic minerals on the planet are a very clear example. The basic minerals determine the main body of the star tree. The difference in basic mineral content leads to inevitable differences in different types of star trees.

Han Zhen was very satisfied with being able to develop forty-six types in one year. He listened to Liu Yukun's explanation and looked at the detailed test data. In fact, Han Zhen never thought that he would be able to implement plant mining directly on all mineral planets in one go. First of all, it must operate on the administrative planet. Don't think that it is not needed on the administrative planet. Han Zhen thought this way before, but after obtaining a lot of data, he realized that this was a big mistake.

No matter how advanced the mining technology is, even if it is from a seventh-level country, although it can achieve very fast mining speed, there is one problem that they cannot avoid no matter how they do it, and that is the damage to the environment! The rarer the minerals, the more expensive they will be, and the less distributed they will be. Even more rare minerals are associated with a variety of minerals, and if you want to get them, you have to search the entire planet. Not a few. This is the reason why almost all countries list all the minerals on their important planets as being prohibited from development; although it can be corrected later by purification methods, this rapid purification method seems to be It is only in the hands of Han Zhen.

What's the absorption rate of Star Tree No. 45? Han Zhen asked, pointing out a plant covering an area of ​​100,000 square meters on the planet's surface.

Seeing that he was responsible, Yang Yichen immediately said: Teacher, No. 45 absorbed the Spirit Devouring Ore alone, using the swallowing and absorption method. It has been tested ten times and the loss was extremely small, only one thousandth. It has been able to It’s finalized.”

Spirit bite ore, this is a good thing, the melee weapon particle knife must use it. Its function is far more than as simple as making a particle knife for a level four country. The famous mecha knife is just as useless without the spiritual bite ore. In a seventh-level country, the use of the spiritual bite ore is even wider. Let’s still take the mecha knife as an example. The seventh-level mecha knife, which is the kind used by the Bracelet Guards and Guard Divisions, needs to first deal with the spiritual bite ore. After further purification, the aura crystal was obtained, and then the fusion reaction was carried out with thirteen other substances to obtain a new substance, Oulkin! This new substance is one of the reasons why the mecha knife can ignore the battleship's protective shield.

How many months has it been growing now?

It is only seven months old, has a maturity period of three years, can grow to ten square kilometers, and has a lifespan of ten years. It will automatically cut off its vitality after one to ten years. It is made of twenty-six kinds of metals such as iron, copper, and silver. Nutrients, after ten years, he will automatically die and still be able to provide at least tens of millions of tons of second-level purified basic minerals.
