Peanut has a very romantic name. Its underground fruits grow directly from flowers on the ground through fruit needles. It is considered a separate genus of Arachis and is not a tuber plant.
The natural wild dispersion of this growth method is relatively limited, and its seeds will only be scattered in a small area near the previous generation of plants. Wang Qi has the sacred tree in hand, and its potential is great.
The flower is the container of the ovary, and the secret of Aralia lies in the ovary. After pollination is completed, the ovary stalk will elongate and send the ovary underground. This process is the focus of Wang Qi's use.
The most famous plant known to have the ability to crawl is wheat. It makes the wheat awns move by adjusting the humidity and dryness day and night to achieve crawling on the ground.
The ovary stalk is directly connected to the mother body and has sufficient nutrients and water. If it wants to crawl, it will be faster, but it cannot crawl away, which is not conducive to centralized harvesting.
On average, one plant should have one to three seeds that have crawled farther away. After fruiting, the fruit needles should be automatically separated. It is best to adjust the shape so that the early form of the synthesizer that collects sunlight on the surface is similar to that of weeds, so as to avoid being harvested during collection. Take away in one pot.
In summary, the form is very good and the implementation is not difficult.
In terms of fruity flavor, when Wang Qi was working on various sacred tree juices in the early days, he happened to come up with peanut-flavored ones. The specific synthesis of flavor substances can be copied directly. The rest naturally continues the advantages of peanuts, mainly vegetable oils and vegetable proteins. We have already had experience with these nuts in the Sacred Tree Nuts. Although there are no direct peanuts, you can refer to the best-selling chestnut-flavored Sacred Tree Nuts. The taste is relatively close to the two, so just reduce the starch ratio.
There are also difficulties, the process from sacred tree to herb.
Besides being green, trees and grass have very little in common. They even have certain differences in their cell structures. However, trees are more advanced from an evolutionary perspective. Their cell classification covers the herbaceous system. The focus is on how to form independent herbaceous plants that can reproduce themselves. .
The final decision was to do it in batches.
First find an outpost to adjust the traits and produce peanut-flavored syrup and chestnut-flavored nuts at the same time, using this as the basis to shape the first-generation seeds.
The first-generation seeds become herbaceous plants after being separated from the sacred tree, but an extra organ needs to be retained to connect to the sacred tree seeds in order to adjust its growth and reproduction patterns.
Once the plan is ready, start right away, spend two days fussing over the artifact book, and let Akeem, the seed "expert", plant the seeds and go to the nearby South Town outpost to make adjustments.
It seems easy to adjust the flavor substances of the output products. In fact, for the sacred tree, it involves the formation and transportation of compounds in the entire internal circulation system. It took several days to get the first generation of peanut seedlings.
It is said to be a peanut seedling, but it is actually a little monster, with a root attached to the seed of the sacred tree, and it is still twisting and turning.
Herbs are small in size and grow very quickly in the palace flower beds. You can see the results within a few minutes of planting seeds.
After two days of tossing and iterating more than a dozen times, it seems to be working, but the subsequent steps have become very time-consuming.
In order to reduce the risk of large-scale biological contamination, Wang Qi requires that this new peanut can reproduce completely without the control of the parasite.
The dividing point is the peanut grown on the last experimental plant that can be connected to seeds. Its descendants are already in a parasitoid failure state and can no longer be connected to seeds. In this state, it takes 80 days for it to bear fruit again. .
But 80 days is just Wang Qi’s plan. In fact, it is completely unknown what the host body will become after it does not exert its combined effect. It may die in a few days, or the peanuts that will be produced again may not have the ability to develop. Once in the middle If there is a problem in any link, it is necessary to analyze the cause and readjust the original strain, and then start the self-reproduction process from scratch.
After this, wild observation will be carried out, and its wild viability and plant density will be appropriately adjusted to meet the requirement of "three to four hours of collection".
The entire work of creating new species is much more troublesome than directly manipulating the sacred tree. We hope to meet the requirements in about three years.
After entering the observation period, Wang Qi does not need to keep an eye on him all the time, as he still has official business to deal with.
Let’s start from the economic point of view.
Previous bank statistics show that the total number of Phoenix coins circulating in the market in the form of cash is 3.7 billion yuan, of which about 2.2 billion yuan is circulating domestically and the overseas share is 1.5 billion.
You can't tell much by just looking at this set of numbers. You can realize the problem by superimposing the aviation bureau's cargo trade route map.
There is very little trade between the kingdom and Fatel. Including other regional lords and most of the territory of the Ongi Kingdom, the estimated population covered by the trade routes is more than 16 million people.
1.5 billion are divided among 16 million people, and the average per capita is less than 100. If we take it more seriously, 90% of them hold no more than 1 yuan of Phoenix coins, and most of them are concentrated in traders and the "Ganlin" plan. For the covered relief households, the money in the hands of the latter will also be stolen by merchants, and the holdings will also not reach the average value.
For an economy as small as the Phoenix Kingdom, it is good to have this money circulating overseas. Compared with before the launch of the Ganlin Plan, the situation of being unable to get cash to purchase products overseas has improved a lot.
It's just that the industrial scissors are not offensive at home, but it is different externally. Once the Ganlin project is stopped, the money will soon flow back to the family.
This 1.5 billion needs to be turned into about 20 billion to completely eliminate the precious metal currencies in areas other than Fatal and form a certain degree of economic self-sustainability, while maintaining a basic balance of payments through multilateral trade.
It seems that the Ganlin plan can be realized if it continues to advance, but it is not that easy.
The essence of the Ganlin Plan is a work-for-relief infrastructure project. It is rapidly promoting the improvement of the Pangxun plate and its surrounding infrastructure. The project involves a labor force of nearly one million. In the past few years, the local road network construction and airport expansion in the relevant areas have been completed. The reinforcement and expansion of the city are coming to an end.
Continuing to deepen construction on this basis will involve the core interests of the lords.
For example, in order to increase the per capita income abroad, lowering the threshold for food acquisition is the basis of everything. According to Wang Qi, after infrastructure construction, there will be militarized farming groups. Without militarization, it is impossible to ensure the safety of planting during the Three Realms War. This kind of thing is done overseas. It absolutely cannot be pushed.
It’s not easy to just stop providing assistance.
Once the Ganlin project is stopped, the millions of laborers and their relatives who rely on their stocks, and about two million people will immediately lose their source of livelihood. If left alone, they will be easily taken advantage of by those with ulterior motives.
Although these people pose no security threat to the kingdom in the floating island environment, the Three Realms War will eventually pass, and rescuing a group of people to form a group of hostile forces is ultimately a hidden danger.
The early plan was to absorb some people during the implementation of the plan, and then absorb another part during the construction of Little Bear City. About one-third of the population would be deployed in low-end industries so that they could pass through the trade lake entrance.
At that time, we still underestimated the size and construction period of Little Bear City, and also underestimated the wool-gathering ability and labor enthusiasm of overseas victims.
On the one hand, the population absorbed into the country has not significantly reduced the number of beneficiaries of the Ganlin Plan. The overseas guys have basically maintained the original scale through various "reasonable reasons". On the other hand, Little Bear City is slightly delayed, and the overseas infrastructure work is a little faster. The time coordination is very poor, and it is a bit difficult to finish now.
However, it is not impossible to do anything. Simply put, when the Ganlin plan in the existing area is suspended, everyone will be given a severance package.
Their labor income is three cents per day with sugar and vegetables, a little meat and meals, and a severance pay of two hundred per person, which is enough to be considered a huge sum of money.
The purchasing power of Phoenix coins is high. Even in the environment of high overseas food prices, the comprehensive daily living cost including the purchase of durable goods is difficult to exceed six cents. Two hundred yuan is enough to hire someone to build a second-floor apartment that can accommodate a family of four. The living room is a clay house with an attic storage room.
In fact, the victims themselves are not all bad. They have also reclaimed some land in the past few years, and most of them already have fixed residences. The extra two hundred yuan is simply a start-up fund for starting a business.
With a population of one million, there are definitely not a few people who can successfully transform into small foremen, vendors, small merchants, and free farmers. After these relatively successful people have formed a certain strength, it will be difficult for those who are further encouraged to become successful. .
For the family, sending an additional 200 million in funds, after the business flow is gathered, should also be able to spawn several more local industries and increase the basic salary level to a certain extent.
However, this has only solved the possibility of Ganlin Plan to change locations and continue to operate. It is still far away from the 20 billion overseas floating currency.
It is unlikely that the wages and benefits of the Ganlin plan will be increased, because if food is not distributed, overseas businessmen will not be so kind to sell cheap food, and what will be left in the end will not be as good as now. If we continue to distribute food and simply raise wages, the total expenditure will be close to the kingdom's early one-yuan basic wage standard. It is too cheap for outsiders, and the people within the country will complain to some extent.
Even an extra dime would be unfair to the previous batch of beneficiaries. If we can increase the vegetable quota by two taels, that's the end of it.
Fortunately, the Ganlin Project is not the kingdom's only external lending channel, and Weng Ji can still think of a way.
