"You don't have any plans for the future, right?" Qian Zilin asked. "You've been so tense lately, it's time to take a good rest."
Ling Yue looked at the endless sea, smiled and shook her head: "I'm going to Xinjiang later to see the airdrop at Uncle Deng's place. I want to go and see it."
Speaking of this, Ling Yue looked up at Qian Zilin with a complicated expression. Because the destroyer arrived earlier than planned, the atomic bomb project that was originally assigned to him was deviated. He didn't know...
No, you can't think like that. This world is not the original world.
Ling Yue turned her head away, hiding her emotions: "Uncle Qian, I'll leave directly from here. When you return to the capital, please tell Uncle Zhou and me about this."
Qian Zilin frowned: "You won't let me follow?"
Ling Yue shook her head: "I'm not a child, and as the dean of the Fifth Academy, why are you following me around all day?"
"This time I'm just going to take a look, not to do any project."
Qian Zilin nodded when he heard this. There were indeed a lot of things waiting for him to deal with in the capital, and Ling Yue also had someone following her, so he didn't have to worry too much.
Qian Zilin was thinking, but before he nodded, he saw the communicator running over: "Boss Ling, Engineer Qian, the Forbidden City is calling."
Qian Zilin then remembered that they had not yet informed the Palace Museum of the good news.
He slapped his forehead and said, "Let's go and answer the phone first."
Ling Yue followed Qian Zilin, got off the boat and walked towards the yard.
Along the way, Qian Zilin kept muttering, "Today is really... I'm old now and can't remember anything."
As he spoke, he walked to the phone. The phone was not hung up, but lay quietly on the table.
Qian Zilin answered the phone, and Ling Yue found a stool and sat down.
"Yes, well, it has been successfully tested in the water." Qian Zilin has a loud voice, especially when he is on the phone, he almost shouts.
"Ling Yue? I just need to report something," Qian Zilin heard the question from the other side and replied, "Ling Yue just said she was going to Xinjiang. Yes, she is next to me."
After that, Qian Zilin handed the phone to Ling Yue and said, "Ling Yue, Comrade Zirun wants to talk to you."
"Hello, this is Ling Yue. Is there anything I can do for Comrade Zirun?" A cold voice sounded after Ling Yue answered the phone.
Qian Zilin walked out silently. There was still a lot to do after the project was completed, and he didn't have time to wait here.
"I heard you were injured? Is it serious? Come back and let the doctor in the capital take a look."
Ling Yue paused holding the phone. Qian Zilin had always been by her side, so it was definitely not him who leaked the information. It could only be Zhang Nan.
No wonder he didn't go to the hospital with me. It turned out that he went there to inform on others.
"No need, I'm fine, I just got scratched by a small nail." Ling Yue said, "I'll be heading directly from here to Xinjiang in the next two days. Uncle Qian just reported it to me."
"I've also heard about what's happening in Xinjiang. You should have some confidence in Comrade Deng He. It's okay to be late for a few days, but your health is not a small matter. Come back first and see me."
Ling Yue pursed her lips and said, "I'm really fine. The situation in Xinjiang is more urgent."
After saying that, the other party was silent for a while: "Alright, I'll ask a doctor to come over. You can wait until the doctor arrives before leaving."
"good."
"By the way, can this destroyer be mass-produced?"
Ling Yue thought for a moment and said truthfully, "The current economic situation isn't quite right. A drought already occurred in Jilin last year, and I'm worried it might worsen this year."
Zirun, who was rarely smoking, paused and suddenly wanted to have a cigarette. This problem had slowly emerged in his mind.
It is the spring plowing season now, but it just doesn't rain. Several major agricultural regions have reported this situation.
Because of this incident, Xiangzhong has been negotiating frequently with the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Economy, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Now the wealthy countries are imposing an economic blockade on them, and the poor countries are unable to provide them with assistance.
"Well, we've received the news. The destroyer issue will be postponed until at least the people can have food to eat. We can discuss it in detail later."
Zirun lit a cigarette, narrowed his eyes, and said, "The Ministry of Economic Affairs has applied for a total of 31 international patents for that washing machine you invented. Xiangzhong is currently exporting it. When you come back, I'll have the head of the Ministry of Economic Affairs come to you to sign the contract."
"Okay, then can this money buy food?"
"Haha, in this world, money really isn't everything. It can buy things, but it can't buy much."
At least it is not enough for the 400 million Dragon people to eat.
Zirun didn't say the latter part of the sentence, but even if he didn't, Lingyue could guess it with her intelligence.
Ling Yue didn't know what to say for a moment.
She did have two plans in mind, one was nutrient solution and the other was high-yield rice.
There is indeed such a thing as nutrient solution in Interstellar, which can maintain the body's needs without eating, and is especially suitable for office workers.
But this thing has a drawback, which is that it requires genetically modified people to use it. In the interstellar world, this is no longer a drawback, as all people are the product of genes.
If it has not been modified, the human body will not eat for a long time, which will cause stomach atrophy and lack of satiety, leading to insomnia, fatigue and a series of other problems.
Genetic modification also has side effects, and reducing the birth rate of naturally conceived babies is a big problem.
The best way is to grow high-yield rice.
However, in interstellar space, due to the issue of nutrient solution, the demand for rice has also decreased, and only those who have time or love gourmet food will use it frequently.
Therefore, she did not systematically study this knowledge at the beginning, and only had a better understanding of heavy engineering such as physics and chemistry.
After thinking about it, Ling Yue decided to keep the idea of nutrient solution in mind and said, "There's a point to be made. The agricultural department should be able to cultivate high-yield rice."
"Well, I won't bother you anymore. I'm here to congratulate you on your success."
"Thank you!" Ling Yue accepted it happily and hung up the phone.
According to the current trend of the Blue Planet and the Earth, there is a high possibility of a three-year drought, and this is just the beginning.
After hanging up the phone, Ling Yue did not go back, but just sat in the chair blankly.
"Number Seven, can you find a method for developing high-yield interstellar rice?"
[Please wait, retrieving...]
Before he finished speaking, relevant technical methods appeared on the microcomputer.
"So comprehensive?" Ling Yue looked at the things on the computer in surprise and asked in disbelief.
Isn't this confidential?
[No need to keep it secret, this has been patented.]
Ling Yue did not modify it without authorization, but downloaded it verbatim, then read it several times, deleting anything that should not appear. When only the research method was left, she returned to her room and printed out the document.
Without experimental reference data, they have to figure everything out by themselves, but at least there is such a document that can point them in a direction.
