"You are now the temporary minister of the Ministry of Transportation." Wu Song continued to say to the woman, "If this matter is completed, you will be directly transferred to a regular position, and the Ministry of Transportation will be handed over to you in the future."

Hearing this, the woman who had always been very serious couldn't hold back a smile on her face.

After all, who doesn’t want a promotion? Moreover, Wu Song has great prestige in the Ice Keepers organization, and he always sticks to his word.

You can tell from the details in the leader's language whether he is trying to impress his subordinates.

If Wu Song said, if this thing is done well, I will let you become a regular employee.

Don't think about it, this must be painting a cake. What is the standard for doing it well? It’s not just a matter of Wu Song’s words.

But what Wu Song said was that he would be promoted to a regular employee once the job is done.

That means that only if a woman can deliver the person to the location within two days, Wu Song will definitely fulfill his promise.

Rigorous, transparent and fair.

"Where is the person in charge of the Department of Biology and the Department of Health?" Wu Song bypassed the middle-aged woman and looked at the crowd behind.

Having just witnessed Wu Song dismissing the former Minister of Transportation, others naturally did not dare to neglect him. Four or five people in charge with different skin colors hurriedly ran to Wu Song.

"No matter what method you use, the list of members of the response team will be sent to the Ministry of Transportation within two hours." Wu Song glanced back and forth on the faces of several people, "Viruologists, doctors, biologists, archaeologists, etc. No one should be missing from the list of scientists.”

"Yes." Everyone agreed in unison.

"Also, a few people from the response team need to go to the 249 scientific research station."

"Huo Yu is the only icekeeper who has come into contact with that area. Stop all his outings and quarantine him." Wu Song paused and thought for a while, "He is an excellent icekeeper. If he develops any symptoms, , must be treated with all our strength.”

"yes."

"One last thing, no matter what corpses of ancient creatures you find there, try to preserve them as intact as possible, especially remember to extract the active cells in them."

"Maintaining biological diversity is also one of the responsibilities of our icekeepers." Wu Song's eyes became dark.

. . . . . .

"If those ancient wolves had intact cells, today would be considered a great achievement."

"Ahem, there are actually hundreds of thousands of species on Blue Star, but humans have a bad phenomenon now, especially after the rapid development of agriculture, which is the unipolarization of species."

Before the live broadcast was interrupted, Huo Yu coughed twice, turned his head and said to the camera.

"We only plant and protect species that are beneficial to humans, and we even have to eliminate those so-called pests and harmful birds. This is a very dangerous thing."

"Europeans eat wheat, and Chinese eat corn. As a result, a large proportion of the crops in the world are wheat and corn." Huo Yu felt his throat was a little dry and itchy, and subconsciously scratched his throat and continued, "This leads to many unique things in Africa. Crops are gradually dying out because no one is cultivating them, and scientists call them 'orphan crops.'"

What Huo Yu said is a point of view that the scientific community has paid more attention to in recent years.

Before this, human beings had always classified other living creatures as good or bad. China also carried out a vigorous campaign to "eliminate the four pests", which was eventually terminated due to strong opposition from zoologists.

This is why there is no emphasis on biological diversity at all. The DHA of species on earth all have certain similarities. Humans and a leaf have exactly the same DNA fragments.

If we keep planting the species that are most beneficial to us, such as corn, there are actually many negative effects.

Nowadays, the corn kernels are plump and juicy, and those wild corns that are not delicious will gradually be eliminated. In the end, only the most delicious type of corn will be left.

As long as a deadly virus targeting corn appears at this time, it will be a disaster, because the wild corn that can resist this virus has been screened out by humans.

"You're so excited. No wonder Mr. Yu was so excited when he discovered those frozen ancient wolves."

"Every living thing is a treasure for mankind."

“Everything needs its harmony to live, and each needs its nourishment to become complete.”

"I'll go, that intellectual upstairs, are you here again?"

"That's good, but what does this have to do with my monthly salary of three thousand?"

Huo Yu glanced at the barrage and smiled helplessly.

"Maybe it doesn't have much to do with you, but it has something to do with all of us humans." Huo Yu did not refute, but said patiently, "If you are poor, you can benefit yourself, and if you are rich, you can benefit the world. I just hope that when everyone has the ability time, you can pay attention to the common destiny of mankind."

Huo Yu knows very well that environmental protection cannot rely on moral kidnapping.

Many people are still unable to survive well in this world, so it is obviously unrealistic to ask them to do distant things such as rescuing wild animals, protecting species diversity, and protecting the environment.

The correct approach should be to use a small group of people to lead a large number of people, starting from small things like saving water and using electricity, and eventually develop into a great cause recognized by mankind.

The ice keepers are that small group of people.

But what is worrying is, can Blue Star’s environment survive until the day when all humans begin to protect the environment from the bottom of their hearts?

After chatting with the audience for a while, the snowmobile arrived at the 249 scientific research station.

Huo Yu slowly parked the snowmobile in the courtyard and ran to the backyard immediately.

Once again, I forgot to feed Sister Cow. Who knows how angry the cow was, so I had better comfort the tool cow quickly, otherwise I and the little ones would have no milk to drink.

Walking into the backyard, the three fish ponds were all empty. It seemed like Xiao Bu should go to the beach to play.

Turning his head to look at the cowshed, the black and white lady cow was placing her head listlessly on the fence, looking longingly at the wooden box storing fodder not far away.

"Sorry, sorry." Huo Yu walked over apologetically and clasped his hands together.

"Moo——"

Sister Niu gave a weak cry, obviously she no longer had the strength to protest with Huo Yu.

Huo Yu quickly put some fodder into the trough and filled it with water.

"Ahem, eat quickly." Huo Yu stretched out his hand and touched the cow's head.

The cow gave him a blank look, shook her head and refused to eat.

Huo Yu smiled. Are you starting a hunger strike now?

"It's fine if you don't want to eat it, beef skewers." Huo Yu looked at the strong muscles of the cow. "There's nothing in the belly. It will be easy for me to handle when the time comes. You think so, beef skewers?"

"Moo."

The cow gave a cry of grief and indignation, biting into a handful of grass and chewing reluctantly.

"That's right." Huo Yu stretched out his hand and continued to touch the big head of the cow to wipe the oil. "Eat more, and I can grill a few more skewers by then."

The cow's mouth suddenly stopped chewing fodder.

Even if I eat it, it’s beef skewers. If I don’t eat it, it’s still beef skewers. Should I eat it or not?

Grab the bamboo shoots.

When the cows at your scientific research station are all damned for eight lifetimes!
