0391 Living Fossil

"Hello, is Manager Luo here?"

Luo Jiying paused because she already knew who was coming. Zhang Jing, who was standing aside, changed her face and said, "Zhang Heng, why are you here?"

At this time, the two parties had a face-to-face meeting. The store was relatively long, and there was quite a distance from the entrance to the bartai. The clerk waiting at the door was one of the people who had despised him before. He was recognized as soon as he entered the door.

come out!

"Well, I arrived downstairs early, so I came up to express my gratitude." As he said this, Zhang Heng came closer. Compared with more than a month ago, he looked a little more mature. There was an aura of Mo Fei under his sunny appearance, and he had an outstanding demeanor.

!

"You have changed so much!" Luo Jiying lightly opened her red lips. She always judged people very accurately, but she could no longer figure out the young man in front of her. Clothing, demeanor, and temperament could all be disguised, but the charm between her brows could not be concealed.

, this young man has the charm of a superior person in his eyebrows, even more powerful than many superior people she has seen.

Zhang Heng showed a smile and said sincerely: "Young Master Heng didn't have anything to do that day and came here recklessly. I came here specifically to express my gratitude today!"

Luo Jiying thought. The tone was neither humble nor arrogant, but the word "heng" actually made her feel the charm of an ancient family. Could three million really completely change a person's life?

"You're too polite. It's convenient for me that day. As long as you don't blame me for negotiating a lower price." Luo Jiying adjusted her attitude and began to receive her formally.

Then Zhang Heng followed him to the inner hall with great hospitality. There was only a small office, which was considered good here. There was no such thing as an office in the Computer City.

After entering the coffee entrance, Zhang Heng took out the box and placed it on the coffee table. He said loudly: "These are two small items. Please accept them, Manager Luo."

"No. We have rules and we cannot accept guests' things casually." Luo Jiying is thirty years old, plump and wearing a white OL skirt. She is currently described as a royal sister.

Zhang Heng smiled and said: "There is no reason to take back what I give away!"

The words were not serious, but Luo Jiying's heart was beating violently, and she couldn't help but ask: "What is Mr. Zhang doing now, can you tell me more conveniently?"

Zhang Jing next to him wanted to interject several times, but stopped when he reached his mouth. She also had the same doubts and was very curious about what caused him to change so much, and in such a short period of time.

.

"Haha, I'm just doing some small business with my friends. There's no other reason to come here today. This is my phone number. If Manager Luo has any troubles that can't be solved in the future, you can call me." Zhang Heng said and took out his phone number.

A business card was placed on the table, with only his name and phone number on it. But there was a line of Tibetan text under the Chinese name, which translated to "Barbarian King of Sichuan". This was prepared for him by Dolma.

Luo Jiying did not touch the gift box, but solemnly took the business card into her hand. She glanced at it and felt a sudden surprise in her heart. The Tibetan text on it reminded her of the recent changes in Chengdu...

――――――――

A few minutes later, Zhang Heng and Zhang Jing went downstairs together. Only then did Zhang Jing say: "Zhang Heng, why don't you sell Ye'er cake anymore? The stall owner has also changed."

"Well, we are temporarily closed for a while. The new shop is already being renovated. It is downstairs at Feng Qitong opposite the market." He then said, "Has your cousin arrived?"

"We're here, just wait downstairs." Zhang Jing responded, but her mind was recalling the situation of Feng Qitong. This is a recently built business building at the intersection, and there is a small garden downstairs.

The elephant shop has long been full and business is good. It is not cheap to open a shop at this time.

When they got downstairs, sure enough, Zhang Heng saw a very thin woman. She was 1.7 meters tall, but she was really too thin. She was probably only 90 pounds at most. She had long hair, an oval face, a beautiful face, and very beautiful eyes.

It is agile and gives people a very smart feeling. It is not very beautiful, but its temperament is a bit higher than ordinary ones.

"Zhang Heng, this is my cousin Liu Zixuan." Zhang Jing added: "Zixuan, he is Zhang Heng who provided the leaves."

"Hello, thank you." Liu Zixuan stretched out his hand in an elegant manner. His fingers were slender and as white as his skin. You could even see the veins under the skin. This kind of skin is so tender.

"You're welcome!" Zhang Heng politely stretched out his hand and shook it.

Immediately, Liu Zixuan's beautiful eyebrows frowned. This man's palms were too rough, and his hands were a little burned.

Zhang Heng smiled and asked the two women to get on the bus and go to the teahouse opposite. Zhang Jing had already made a reservation. It was only suitable for afternoon tea at this time, and it was too early to eat.

Drinking tea was just a formality for him. After sitting down, he asked bluntly: "How is the matter with the leaves?"

Liu Zixuan's emotions fluctuated when he talked about the leaves, and he said hastily: "It has been initially confirmed that it is a relic plant, which refers to a species that has been preserved from ancient times. This kind of tree species is very rare and on the verge of extinction. China's relic plants are all in two hands.

Counting them all, the well-known ginkgo tree is a descendant plant and is also called a living fossil!"

"Ginkgo, living fossil?" Zhang Heng muttered. Of course he knew about ginkgo, because there was a rumor in the village that it was very valuable at some time. In the more than ten years he had grown up, he had only seen five large ginkgo trees in total, and now there is only one big ginkgo tree.

They disappeared and were all sold by the villagers. A 20-year-old one sold for 50,000 yuan, but these things are hard to come by. In the past, who would plant a slow-growing ginkgo tree? It was also called a ginkgo tree in the village.

Ginkgo tree, because the fruit of ginkgo is white after shelling, it is a great tonic. The villagers will use it to stew chicken. The price in the town is fifty-one pounds. A few years ago, the cultivation of the ginkgo tree started for a period of time.

Due to the ginkgo fever, four out of ten farmers have planted ginkgo. However, it takes too long for ginkgo to mature. It will only bear fruit after twenty years of growth, which also takes up space. Later, some small saplings were cut down one after another. Zhang Heng’s family now has three kinds of ginkgo planted.

The trunk of a two-year-old ginkgo tree is only as thick as a baby's arm. In twenty-year-old it can be as thick as the mouth of a thick bowl in the village. This may be like raising pigs, which start to lose value when everyone raises them.

"Yes, it's Ginkgo. The reason why Ginkgo can be preserved to this day is because its tree bark has antibacterial components and will not be damaged by insects and ants. In ancient times, farmers would break the shells of Ginkgo and sprinkle them on the land as pesticides.

To use. Ginkgo is also of high medicinal value. It clears away heat, astringes lungs, relieves asthma, relieves coughs, promotes qi and blood circulation, and can also be used to make furniture and wood carvings. Ginkgo has a beautiful and dignified appearance, does not suffer from diseases and insect pests, does not produce garbage, and has a long life.

, are very suitable for landscape trees, and their prices have risen very quickly in recent years." Liu Zixuan continued.

Zhang Jing followed up and said: "The oldest ginkgo tree in the Rongcheng area is said to have been planted by Master Zhang himself 1,800 years ago. We are also a ginkgo-dense area in Sichuan. There are many wild tree species, but they are now basically exploited."

Zhang Heng was a little sensitive when he heard the ancient celebrity named Zhang, but he quickly calmed down and said: "Stop for now, we are talking about leaves, how come we study ginkgo." Although ginkgo is considered precious, it is

He had seen it many times as a young man in a remote rural area, so it was not surprising.

"Yes, the active components of the cells in the leaves you gave me are similar to those of Ginkgo biloba. This is good news. It can be initially determined to be a hermit plant. But the bad news is that neither my tutor nor I have been able to figure out what medicinal uses this plant has.

Value, can you provide a complete living tree species? I can help you apply for a research group. The research results belong to you, but the reputation belongs to our group. The funds are provided by the school research institution." Liu Zixuan came to Chengdu specifically for this purpose.

For this.

Zhang Heng shook his head and said: "So, the leaves may have medicinal value. Or other values?"

"Yes, to be honest with you, the ingredients extracted from trees smell refreshing, but we can't analyze the specific ingredients. But don't worry, there will be many outstanding talents joining us as soon as the funds are in place.

Once the crack is successful and the patent rights belong to you, it will be a great fortune." Liu Zixuan quickly got to the point.

But Zhang Heng replied: "I am not short of money now!"

Liu Zixuan had already considered this issue along the way and continued: "To tell you the truth, my mentor got an inside message that Chengdu is planning to establish a Ginkgo City and will plant more than 10,000 ginkgo trees in the entire Chengdu construction area.

A ginkgo tree, if the tree species you provide can make scientific research progress, it may be able to defeat the ginkgo and become the city tree of Chengdu. Ten thousand, even if one is worth a thousand, this is a wealth of ten million, and this is just the beginning. You

As long as you monopolize the market before you do it, you can buy more tree species, and if you have the drug patent rights in hand, you can still get a steady stream of wealth."

Zhang Heng pursed his lips. If he had said this earlier, he might have been moved, but now he has no intention of doing this.

Liu Zixuan's heart sank. He didn't seem to care about the other party's expression, and quickly added: "Rongcheng is called Rongcheng because its city flower is called hibiscus. I guess the tree species you provided has not yet been named.

Think about it, maybe you can name a provincial city with a population of tens of millions and make it famous for generations to come..."

Zhang Heng was delighted. It seemed that he had used this method before. When money was useless, he used vanity to impress people. But then he thought about it, what if he named the space tree species: "Sun Tree!"

When such sun trees are planted all over Chengdu, can it really be called a Sun City?

"Are you sure that this kind of tree can reproduce in large numbers and survive?" Zhang Heng asked aloud.

As a result, Liu Zixuan asked: "If you can provide trees, can't you prove that they can be planted and survive? As long as they are living tree species, they must be able to reproduce in large numbers!"

"How can you ensure monopoly if I provide tree species?" Zhang Heng asked again.

"Don't worry, we will sign an agreement with you in advance..." When Liu Zixuan heard that it was possible, a smile finally appeared on his face.

But who knew that Zhang Heng suddenly interjected: "First, I am not short of funds. Second, if I have funds, I am afraid that I will not have talents. Third, the tree species are in my hands now. I am the only one who controls this kind of trees. Finally, why should I

What about cooperating with you on development?”

The smile on Liu Zixuan's face paused and she looked at him in surprise. It seemed that she had made a slight miscalculation this time. If she made a wrong move, it would be difficult to talk about it later.

Sure enough, Zhang Heng smiled and said: "Hello, are you interested in doing something for me and continuing to study this kind of tree? I will provide the funds, the honor will be yours, and your salary will not be low!"

"I, I plan to continue studying for graduate school. I just got a place as a famous teacher..." Liu Zixuan seemed to be saying these words to himself.

But Zhang Heng waved his hand and said: "You have to consider the gains and losses yourself. Okay, let's talk about it today. This is my business card. If you have any news, please contact me!"

After that, he gave Zhang Jing an apologetic expression and said goodbye! (To be continued.)
