Two months later, the long river of time flowed into early summer. Although the desert area has not changed clearly, the growth of the daytime still makes the newly sown grass in the edge wetlands of the rapidly expanding LS experimental oasis grow more densely and gratifying.

Temporarily giving up planting other vegetation and planting the six good-quality forage grasses that the LS Group has worked hard to harvest on a large scale, the "green seaweed species" with the most habits, the fastest growth, and the most developed rhizomes is the only suggestion given by soil and water conservation experts.

Sometimes scientific conclusions are so simple that it makes people laugh, but the process of getting such conclusions and their value is never simple. In just a few dozen days, a pasture of more than ten square kilometers miraculously appeared on the desert.

At this moment, seventy or eighty cattle and sheep with different breeds were swaying listlessly on the grass that could no longer be seen, gnawing on the green fresh grass, and occasionally looking up at a group of people wearing various wide-brimmed hats under the scorching sun in the distance, watching everywhere.

The cattle and sheep were watching people, and people were also observing them. In the crowd, a white old man with a goatee, a thin body, dressed in a standard cowboy pointed to the livestock paced and fed, saying, "Dr. Li Sheng, judging from the water and grass resources, this place is better than the best pasture I have ever seen before.

Generally, the pasture can raise about 200 beef cattle in a circular manner per square kilometer of land, and the good pasture can be 10 to 20% more, but according to the growth of the forage here, 280 or even 300 cattle are enough for supply.

Unfortunately, the unique climate environment of the desert not only gives the forage an unprecedented benign growth environment, but also makes it very difficult to build a pasture.

This is very contradictory, but it is a reality. The good-bred forage grass screened by breeding experts can quickly adapt to the changing temperature of the sandy land, but it does not mean that the livestock can be so lucky.

The difference between plants and animals in terms of environmental resilience is outrageous, just like the height of Mount Everest and Mariana Trench.

Judging from the current hot temperature, this grassland is very suitable for raising short-haired livestock such as Berkeley black cattle and Orant flower cattle. However, when the temperature drops sharply to below zero degrees at night, the warmth of the cattle shed will seriously affect the growth of the short-haired cattle species, and the mortality rate will be very high.

If you raise alpine yaks at night, it will be fine, but the heat during the day can easily cause the long-haired cattle species to dehydrate and die...

Oh, I forgot that you are an outstanding biologist and say that these are a bit redundant. In short, we face many difficulties, many, and some of them can even be said to be insurmountable."

"Dr. Brown, a biologist, is not an animal husbandry scientist. Researching wild creatures and animals domesticated by humans are completely different concepts. I need the professional advice of you and your team.

I know that it is a huge challenge to build a qualified ranch in such a damn environment, but it is indeed our need, or the needs of all people living in "Noah". Billions of years of evolution have made people on earth replenish sufficient protein and fat if they want to live healthy and strong.

The deteriorating food crisis forces Noah immigrants to learn to build farms in the desert sooner or later. We cannot live forever on the grain and frozen sea fish grown in the skyscrapers.

It doesn't matter if you work hard and fail. History will remember our attempt. Please don't give up." Zhang Lisheng, wearing a sweatshirt, shorts, a big straw hat, a thick short beard and tanned skin, stood beside the old man, looking into the distance, interrupting the old man's words, and whispering endlessly.

During the period after the magical excavation of the wetlands at the edge of the oasis, he only did two things. One was to prepare a paper "Analysis of the evolutionary trajectory of desert flora and plant and water source changes" to explain the reasons for buying large amounts of sand and hiring excavators to dig the desert.

Scientific argumentation for a topic that has already reached a clear conclusion is as simple as shooting first and then drawing a target, because all the derivation processes he said have been proven to be correct by facts, and other scientists will never be able to come up with evidence even if they want to refute it.

After all, the convincing root of scientific research is the correctness of reality. As the saying goes, practice produces true knowledge. If a young man cannot dig out water in the sand, his paper is just an ordinary academic discussion. But if he digs out the wetland, then the paper will naturally become a practically verified "true knowledge", which is also the reality of cutting-edge scientific research.

The new paper was published in the first volume of Science without any controversy, not only successfully resolving doubts, but also brought Zhang Lisheng a very high academic status, making him a top-notch practical biology authority in one fell swoop.

After that, the young man did the second thing and began to plan to build a farm that would turn into a wetland and plant grass on the desert to build a farm.

For this purpose, he recruited more than a dozen famous animal husbandry scholars and purchased thousands of different breeds of livestock at high prices. After five consecutive weeks of experimental grazing, it is time to test the results.

As a scientist who leads the breeding experiment, Brown is obviously not satisfied with the results he has gained from working hard for more than 30 days, but this does not mean that this stubborn old man born in a cowboy family in California would admit defeat.

"Dr. Li, we all know that no matter how good a scientist is, it is unlikely to achieve groundbreaking results when he is over forty years old. But I am already sixty-one this year, and not long ago, I was begging God all day long to give me another real job opportunity.

Noah has no ranch, and cattle and sheep are kept in ‘air-conditioned rooms’. From birth to slaughter, they are enclosed in less than eight square meters of space. I am a scientist and a cowboy. I cannot allow myself to wear all-white experimental clothes and slippers, and draw blood for livestock in crowded buildings for physical examinations all day.

That is not a place where animal husbandry scholars should stay, at least not where stubborn old guys like me should stay.

You gave me the opportunity to regain my ideal, and I will seize it until I succeed and never give up." Brown answered Zhang Lisheng's concerns vigorously.

Facing the old man's stiff and solemn expression, although the young man did not quite understand the spirit of the American cowboy, he clearly read a kind of stubbornness that was moving forward.

He understood the character and perseverance represented by this expression, and was stunned for a few seconds, and suddenly smiled slightly, "Sorry, Dr. Brown, I actually doubt the willpower of a cowboy with a real scientific spirit.

From now on, you will be responsible for all planning of the ranch. I believe in your professional attitude and knowledge.

After the farm is completed, I will reward you with 5% of the annual livestock income, and you will allocate it to the team members as a bonus..." Speaking of this, he raised his wrist and looked at the watch, "Oh, so there is no need for me to stay here.

It's 4:40 pm now, and it's still time to go back to New Washington A for dinner, so I'll say goodbye first and see you all." He turned around and walked towards the oasis in the distance.

"I'll leave everything to me, so everything will be left to me..." Brown opened his mouth and said incredibly, looking at the youth's gradually dissipating back in shock.

"This is the boss' style of doing things. Dr. Brown, he has a unique vision and decisiveness, and is very good at using these two traits. When encountering difficulties, he can always find the most suitable person to solve in the shortest time." Charlie behind the old man shrugged and said, "Okay, now tell me what else do you need, whether it is funds or personnel, or material things, just talk about it..."

On the newly sown grassland, the president of ‘LS’ began to discuss the next investment with the founder of the group’s most important industry in the future, while the founder of the company drove his own light jeep out of the oasis and galloped towards the city 150 kilometers away.

After galloping across the sand for more than an hour, in the evening, the outlines of the skyscrapers with rows of skyscrapers had already appeared clearly in the eyes of young people.

Although the news confidentiality treaty was signed and after more than a hundred days of precipitation, no matter how hot the news began to cool down, Zhang Lisheng was careful not to go home. Instead, he wandered around the city aimlessly for a while, and casually found a restaurant with good business and stopped the car.

But unexpectedly, he had just gotten out of the car and before he could enter the restaurant, he heard someone whispering behind him: "Li Sheng, why are you in the city?"

"I can't stay in the desert forever, Ruili, but I've become like this, but you can still recognize me with your back alone. It's incredible." Zhang Lisheng turned around and looked at the Raven's parents who had just gotten off work and was carrying his handbag freely behind him.

"Oh, my poor brother, are you changing careers and running to the beach as surfing far away? How could you be so dark and have a beard?" Ruili joked, "I didn't recognize you, but I recognized your car. Are you planning to accompany me when you came here to have dinner?"

The young man was stunned when he heard the girl say this, and then he suddenly found that the NBC Building was just around the corner, half of the sign was clearly visible, and the wooden door inlaid with unique copper corner handles also flashed with the neon sign of Thereportershome (Reporter's House) above the wooden door.

"Oh, I randomly found a restaurant that looks good on the street. I didn't expect it to be your NBC reporter's 'Candy House'. Fate is so arranged. It seems that I can only treat you to a meal." Zhang Lisheng shook his head in a silence, answered jokingly, and walked into the restaurant with Ruili.

This is a typical rice-style restaurant that perfectly integrates drinking and dining. From the unique and dense news clippings printed on the long bar that has been quite old, it can be seen that the customer base I face is very clear, namely, broadcaster or newspaper employees.
