Hearing this, a picture flashed through Ling Yue's mind, and then with a "snap" sound, it slapped her forehead.

"you......"

Ling Yue smiled bitterly and lowered her head: "Last time on Xiaogang's birthday, I promised Xiaogang that I would remind Uncle Qian to go back. Ugh... I forgot!"

Deng He: "...Xiaogang will hate you to death."

He shook his head. Ling Yue was really like that. She was only interested in the project. If he could get her even a little bit of attention in other things, it would be like getting all of her.

"Let's go, don't think about it. What can we do if we've already forgotten it?" Deng He said, "Let's go eat first. When we get back, find some time and bring something to comfort the little one. Children are forgetful and they might not even remember it themselves."

What else could Ling Yue say? This was the only thing she could do.

In the cafeteria, it is very rare to see people walking in groups of three or four. Most people come in alone in a hurry, grab a meal casually, and eat while walking.

Ling Yue looked at the round, cone-shaped object in their lunch box and asked curiously, "What is this?"

"This is steamed bread, made of corn. You've never eaten it, have you?"

Ling Yue shook her head. Since she came here, no matter where she ate, it was either rice or corn rice. When she was in Fujian, Zhang Nan was eager to send the best things in the world to the cafeteria, but she had never seen this thing before.

"Here, try it. It's a little spicy, but it's good for satisfying hunger."

Upon hearing this, Ling Yue also took one, but after taking a bite, she couldn't eat any more. Even with the cabbage soup, it was still too dry to swallow.

In order not to waste food, Ling Yue ate it in small bites. By the time she finished, the box of cabbage soup in front of her was gone.

"Is this what you usually eat?"

Deng He sighed. "Some time ago, I went back to Beijing for a meeting. The ground along the way was so hard I couldn't even plow. Now I'm lucky to have something to eat. The country has given priority to frontline researchers like us."

Ling Yue was stunned. If the drought was already so severe at the beginning, then the next three years would probably be even more difficult to endure.

At this moment, Ling Yue's unfinished plan on the train gradually emerged in her mind.

If there are currently no conditions for growing rice, what about genetically modified upland rice?

In the interstellar space, there is a planet that has very little water due to geographical reasons, but the dry rice grown there maintains the operation of the entire planet. For a period of time, this thing was even used to make a profit.

Even though few people eat out in the interstellar world, many of those who love food have both money and time.

Ling Yue was thinking about something, and her expression became unpredictable. Deng He looked at her and couldn't help shaking his head.

You don't have to think about it to know what this girl is thinking about.

Some people are just born with something they are not meant to be, and any random word can bring them inspiration.

Some people go their entire lives without a single inspiration, and this gap is difficult to bridge.

"Uncle Deng, I have something to do. I'll go back first. Can you help me collect it?"

Before he finished speaking, he had already walked out of the cafeteria.

After returning, Ling Yue closed the door and turned on the microcomputer. Now was the best time to plant genetically modified upland rice.

As long as we can get through this year, we will have food stored for next year. We don’t have to worry about dry weather, at most it will just be a little hotter.

As for water, there are many ways to convert seawater into edible water. First, get the food out, and then she will solve the seawater problem.

With food and water, people can survive.

Thinking of this, Ling Yue tapped on it quickly with her fingers.

With his brain working at high speed, No. 7 kept retrieving relevant information.

Genetic variants are not natural mutations. They are a way of synthesizing genes, that is, re-arranging the genes of hybrid rice with the genes of original upland rice with extremely low yield.

This is different from gene mutation. It retains the characteristics of gene mutation, that is, under certain conditions, the gene suddenly changes from its original form of existence to another new form of existence.

At the same time, it changes its own shortcomings. The shortcomings of original upland rice are low yield, low rice yield and poor rice quality.

It just so happens that rice can solve the shortcomings of upland rice very well.

Gene mutations can occur at any stage of development, but gene variants have very strict requirements for developmental events and can only force cells to divide before development begins.

In other words, if you want to obtain genetically modified upland rice, you need to undergo cell division after harvesting and before planting the seeds, and then implant the rice's gene chain.

Ling Yue rubbed her sore neck. It was already early morning the next day.

The next day, the umbrella was remade and Ling Yue checked it again with a heavy head.

There is no problem packing both wings.

"How many did you make in total?" Ling Yue asked.

If this one is still not qualified, you have to do it again. If it is qualified, just use this one directly.

"Just one, I'm not stupid."

How could he not know the problems that Ling Yue could think of? This thing is not a disposable thing.

"The weather is nice today, let's do an experiment."

Deng He glanced at Ling Yue and changed the subject as abruptly as before.

When Ling Yue came to the control console again, she was not relieved just because she had tested it once. She kept an eye on all the data throughout the process.

It took only one minute and twenty-four seconds from the time the order was given to the time the sound was heard.

Everyone can wash their face clean of the sweat from their palms within a minute.

It was not until they heard the sound that everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

After getting the parachute back, Ling Yue looked at the marks on it. It was perfect. Fortunately, the parachute was tested alone and not with the atomic bomb, otherwise such a perfect parachute would have been lost.
