Chapter 204 Experiment Successful (36)

Master Gong Jin immediately stepped forward, took the list from Li Xiaotao, looked at it for a while, and then his eyes lit up.

"I see, Mr. Chen was prepared!"

Luo Tong took the list and nodded knowingly when he saw the Queen Gold-Eating Ant inside, understanding what was going on.

Back then, Chen Yu went on a shopping spree on the Dream Maker platform, purchasing a lot of things.

Thirty thousand gold-eating ants are still lying in a special freezer, unhatched.

These ants can grow up to the thickness of a thumb. Although they look rugged, they are gentle in nature and feed on minerals.

These gold-eating ants are modified; they can digest pollutants, excrete the treated pollutants, and sort them, making them excellent at cleaning up pollution.

However, the improvements have also reduced the adaptability of gold-eating ants to the environment. Many things that they could do on their own before now require the help of breeders, which makes gold-eating ant breeding a very difficult job.

At first, Luo Tong didn't understand why Chen Yu wanted to buy this, but now he does.

"Is this also part of President Chen's plan?"

"Not really. In my opinion, Mr. Chen was just being proactive and purchasing a batch of useful tools in advance."

"I feel the same way, but being prepared is the most needed quality right now. Tianyuan is full of pitfalls and loopholes, so we must take all kinds of precautions."

"Hey, do you think Mr. Chen was referring to this when he asked us to spend money?"

"Very likely! President Chen probably knew the former committee was going to cause trouble, so he warned us in advance."

"Perhaps President Chen obtained the information in Wenchang, but since it concerns other star deities, it's not appropriate to say it outright!"

"It must be like this!"

After the discussion, Luo Tong finally understood Chen Yu's good intentions and also felt the heavy burden on Chen Yu's shoulders.

The journey to Wenchang involved preparing the dream world, registering as a dream weaver, contacting various forces in Wenchang, and ultimately inviting Bai Yanbing, a bigwig in the education sector, to come over.

How much hardship, how much effort, and how many smiles were endured along the way.

Mr. Chen, thank you for your hard work!

Letting out a sigh of relief, Luo Tong said to the others, "President Chen has shown us the way; now it's time to put our strength to use! Assistant Li, when will the temple keeper of the Wood Star Lord come to inspect?"

Li Xiaotao quickly flipped through the records, then looked up and said, "Next month."

“Then next month! President Chen hinted to me that money should be spent, but it should be spent on meaningful things! The former committee's bastards are a bunch of worthless trash, and we absolutely cannot spend money on them.”

"No...that's right!"

"We need to find a way to raise gold-eating ants now, and try to turn these 30,000 into 300,000, 3 million, or even 30 million!"

"You're right...you're right!"

“Zeng Hui, how about you take the lead on this? You were the best at biology back then.”

The short Zeng Hui immediately stood up, his baby face filled with excitement.

He shook hands firmly and said resolutely, "Don't...don't worry."

He then left without looking back, heading straight for the books Chen Yu had temporarily placed in the factory, to find out how to raise gold-eating ants.

Li Xiaotao recalled Zeng Hui's name, checked it on her phone, and then said in surprise, "Zeng Hui... is the Zeng Hui who won second prize in the statewide biology competition two years ago."

"It's him." "Second prize... The special prize and first prize are predetermined; only the second prize is awarded to truly talented contestants, and it's him. But shouldn't someone who wins second prize be guaranteed admission to the Myriad Beasts Sect?"

Luo Tong lowered his head: "...I've implicated him."

"Feel sorry."

Recalling Luo Tong's case, Li Xiaotao patted Luo Tong on the shoulder regretfully.

However, Luo Tong didn't care.

What good is going to university? You'll just end up as a beast of burden for other sects.

If it weren't for that one time, I wouldn't have met President Chen and then started working hard for the revival of Tianyuan.

It can only be said that there are gains and losses, and fate has its own plans.

The cause and effect here are indeed wondrous.

The short man who rushed into the library didn't say much, but instead began to continuously run spells, using "highlighting" to find the key points in each book.

Then, he found books related to ant farming and conducted targeted research based on the habits of ants.

After designing the relevant temperature control chamber, he asked the tall man to help him make the temperature control chamber using a digital magic machine tool. Then he took out the frozen gold-eating ant eggs and began to conduct related research.

Thirty thousand eggs may seem like a lot, but the experimental process often requires calculations in units of hundreds, and one hundred eggs can be lost if one is not careful.

Every failure frustrated him, while every small success filled him with elation.

The young boy picked up the pipette again, combining his hobby with his work, and constantly used various methods to measure the hatching and growth conditions of gold-eating ants.

Zeng Hui's fanatical state astonished Gong Jin.

Biology is a very tedious job. Laboratory technicians often go for days without sleep, fearing that the target will die while they are away, interfering with their experimental results.

They can also become quite mystical. For example, after discovering that wearing red underwear increased the hatching rate of gold-eating ants, Zeng Hui bought a hundred pairs of red underwear to make himself a patchwork garment, and then wore it to conduct experiments.

At the same time, he also selected several workers who were interested in biology and had some basic experimental skills to serve as his assistants.

These people are all taciturn, and the entire laboratory is a quiet place. They only talk in hushed tones when sharing their results each day, and then continue their experiments, forging the ladder to success through failures.

Their silence made Gong Jin think they were crazy several times, but when he saw the excitement in their eyes after their success, he could understand their thoughts.

How fortunate it is to be able to immerse yourself in a career you love.

They don't find biological research boring. The sound of ants hatching sounds like heavenly music to them. The ferocious-looking gold-eating ants are their beloved little darlings. They pour all their passion and affection into these ants, just to find the best breeding program.

During their conversation, a glimmer of light appeared in their eyes.

In the quiet laboratory, they silently contributed their efforts, gradually advancing the hatching and cultivation of gold-eating ants.

Although it was just the breeding and research of ants, they did not achieve basic research success until early June.

Looking at the experimental results and cultivation plan summarized by the group, Gong Jin patted the short man in front of him and said sincerely, "Thank you for your hard work."

The short man gave Gong Jin a bright smile, then snuggled into someone's arms and fell fast asleep.

After reviewing the report, Gong Jin handed it to Luo Tong and added, "The experiment was a success, perfect."

　I'll update three chapters first, and the remaining three will be released this afternoon.
