Chapter 1974: Work is Here

After accepting the arduous task issued by the mentor to raise the Yi element content of X spinach to 10?, Xia Qing accepted two tasks issued by the Base Commander:

First, lead the employees of the Ninth Center to farm well and harvest more grain; second, cooperate with the beasts in the Hui-3 evolutionary forest to carry out a large-scale investigation of evolutionary forest animals and find out the genetically modified species released into the evolutionary forest.

Then, Xia Qing, who took on the heavy burden, shrank in the corner and gnawed on dragon fruit silently, listening to the two big shots continue to burn their enviable brains and explore the political situation.

After introducing the development plan of the Hui-3 Base for the next five years to the Fu big shot, Tan Tan Junjie looked down at his phone and revealed a surprised expression, "Old Four has finished the work, beautiful!"

After forwarding the video sent by Gao Ying to Zhang San and Xia Qing, Tan Tan Junjie stood up to say goodbye and took a helicopter back to the safe zone.

After sending the Base Commander away, Xia Qing returned to the idol's office and asked what she should do next, "Third Brother, I need to go to the hot spring lake to catch Saki Snakes, right?"

Zhang San nodded, "Saki Snakes belong to large snakes..."

Seeing the new human reveal an expression of disapproval, Zhang San raised his hand and pressed his forehead, "Why, do you have an opinion on classifying the Saki Snake, which can reach 45-50 pounds in weight and 4-6 meters in length when adult, as a large snake?"

Xia Qing immediately shook her head, firmly supporting all the idol's remarks, "No! It's a snake, not a python. This weight and length absolutely belong to large snakes!"

Are snakes and pythons parallel relationships?!

Zhang San's expression became even colder, "According to evolutionary primitiveness and specific bone structure, the snake order is divided into multiple families such as python family, boa family, colubrid family, and elapid family. Therefore, a more accurate statement is that the Saki Snake belongs to the colubrid family, not the python family. The small, medium, and large of snakes are divided according to weight and length. Before the catastrophe, there were 8 genera and 28 species of narrow-sense python family snakes, of which 8 were small, 12 were medium, and 8 were large. In addition..."

Xia Qing, who was holding the dragon fruit peel, felt her scalp tingling, and instinctively grinned to reveal a smile.

Seeing that the new human looked relatively pleasing to the eye today, Zhang San's tone softened, "Do you also have an opinion on the Saki Snake belonging to albino snakes?"

This...

Xia Qing sincerely admitted her mistake, "I remembered it wrong. I thought that white snakes lacking tyrosinase do not belong to albino snakes."

Zhang San pressed his forehead, "Who have you told about this, wolves, monkeys, or Yang Jin?"

Xia Qing answered truthfully, "Yang Jin. Third Brother, I will refresh his knowledge base when I go back." Fortunately, I didn't pass on the wrong knowledge to the idol's beloved disciple Little Boss Duan...

Zhang San glared at Xia Qing and continued the topic just now, "Saki Snakes belong to large snakes. It takes at least two years from hatching to laying eggs. Among the 10 adult snakes caught by you and the wolf pack, only 3 are female snakes, which can lay eggs this year; among the 232 snakes born last year, 83 are female snakes, which can lay eggs the year after next."

"If they are to be listed for sale in October next year, they must be small snakes hatched in October this year. The eggs laid by three snakes are definitely not enough. Third Brother, when shall we take action to catch Saki Snakes?"

Xia Qing's luck in catching female snakes was a bit poor. Among the three adult female snakes in Territory No. 7, two were caught by the wolf with the missing ear, and one was caught by the handsome giant wolf.

The female snake caught by the handsome giant wolf? That is a god of wealth wolf; it didn't look for it deliberately at all, it just bumped into it while walking.

Zhang San nodded and issued a task to the new human, "It's not catching snakes, it's picking snake eggs. According to the environmental temperature calculation, Saki Snakes will swim from the hot spring lake of Mountain No. 67 to the python lake of Mountain No. 60 to mate in early May this year, and then return to the vicinity of the hot spring lake to lay eggs in early August. At that time, you lead a team to go over and pick at least 2000 Saki Snake eggs back."

After saying the quantity, Zhang San paused and explained, "The number of eggs laid by adult Saki Snakes is between 80-110. 2000 snake eggs are the eggs laid by about 20 Saki Snakes, which will not affect the ecological balance."

Xia Qing nodded to indicate that she understood, "Third Brother, what is the hatching rate of Saki Snake eggs? Are 2000 enough?"

Zhang San responded, "It is predicted to reach about 65%. Plus the eggs laid by the three Saki Snakes in the laboratory, it should be able to hatch 1500 young snakes, which is enough. Female snakes will definitely guard the snake eggs, and giant pythons may also help. After the bear king understands the nutritional value of Saki Snakes, it may also interfere. You make a plan in advance and try not to trigger large-scale conflicts."

"Understood, don't worry about this, I will handle it clearly."

Xia Qing went through the things she had to do recently in her mind and asked, "Third Brother, is the pollution-free spring water in my territory introduced from the fifth district of Mountain No. 49 to your territory?"

"Introduced from the underground waterway." Zhang San opened the underground water system map of Northern District 1 Territory and the third and fifth districts of Mountain No. 49. The map has already marked the water diversion channels. The channels are divided into two colors. The section connecting the fake spring eye of Territory No. 7 is green, and the channel color outside Territory No. 7 is red.

Green represents completion, and red is the area waiting for construction, which is clear at a glance.

When the meeting of all members of the Territory Alliance about planting strawberries was held last year, there were several topics, one of which was to improve the defense level of the territory, the Territory Alliance funded the Zhang San team to survey the underground water system of Northern District 1, and if a larger underground river was found, install iron wire mesh to prevent snake packs from invading the Northern District 1 Territory from the underground waterway.

This proposal was passed unanimously.

Before the meeting, Xia Qing went to Territory No. 7 to tell the idol about this. At that time, she just wanted to find the underground river, and it was Zhang San who proposed to survey the entire water system.

Now, Xia Qing finally understands why the idol wanted to survey the water system.

Most people during the catastrophe take one step at a time. Xia Qing is relatively cautious and takes five steps at a time. Her idol at the top of the pyramid is definitely taking one hundred steps, no, ten thousand steps!

Look at this water diversion channel drawn by the idol again, it only involves Territory No. 3, Territory No. 7, and the third and fifth districts of Mountain No. 49, so this water diversion project does not need to be negotiated with other lords at all, and the confidentiality effect is first-class, and the concealment effect is first-class.

This plan is much better than the storage pond Xia Qing thought of digging in the fifth district!

Xia Qing looked at her idol with her black and yellow shining eyes, "Third Brother..."

"Shut up."

"Yes."

Zhang San ordered listlessly, "If you agree, I will let Da Ya construct according to this map and open the waterway within ten days."

Xia Qing immediately expressed her position, "I agree, thank you Third Brother. Does Ya Brother need my assistance?"

Zhang San nodded, "The pipes in the underground water system are installed by underwater robots. The section at the spring eye in your territory needs to be installed manually. At that time, you cover for Da Ya."

"No problem!" Xia Qing brewed for a few seconds and mustered the courage to speak, "Third..."

Zhang San, who was holding the scalpel, said coldly, "You want to say that you have a lot of things to do recently and don't have time to write a thesis, so you want to postpone it? Your basic knowledge is weak, and your blind spots are everywhere. If you don't study, think, and write more, how can you improve your logical thinking?"

If it weren't for considering Xia Qing's tight time and heavy tasks, Zhang San would have given her a research report on Saki Snake tyrosinase typing today!

The idol is worthy of being a brain-domain evolver, he guessed it right...

Xia Qing pretended not to see the scalpel spinning in the idol's hand and straightened her back to express her position, "You are right, I must improve my logical thinking, so as not to make major decision-making mistakes due to knowledge blind spots and logical reasoning errors one day in the future." ===== CHAPTER 1975 =====

Xia Qing pretended not to see the scalpel spinning in her idol's hand, straightened her back, and stated, "You are right. I must improve my logical thinking so that I don't make a major decision-making error one day due to a blind spot in my knowledge or a flaw in my logical reasoning."
