Lin Dong didn't know what Hou Ruohai was thinking, but he could feel that Hou Ruohai was not very happy. Of course, this was just a little puzzled for Lin Dong, and then there was nothing.

I am not your full-time psychological counselor, why should I care about your emotions? I helped solve what you need according to my principles, and I did what I should do. Do I need my full guarantee for the rest?

Therefore, after feeling Hou Ruohai's emotions, Lin Dong did not ask questions, but turned his attention to the last college student, Tian Minjie from the Agricultural College.

"Hello, Mr. Lin..." Tian Minjie felt Lin Dong's gaze. He didn't know if it was because of his emotions or because he was introverted, but he actually stuttered. "Lin...Mr. Lin, actually, my classmates and I have a research project, which is about water-saving planting... Now the research has made certain progress, and I want to invite Mr. Lin..."

Water-saving planting?

Lin Dong's mind flashed, and rows of information flashed out of the encyclopedia.

Water-saving planting has always been a key aspect of China's agricultural research. As we all know, although China has a large land area, the per capita arable land area is at the back of the world. Solving the problem of food and clothing and allowing the people to have enough food is definitely the top priority. This is also why Yuan Longping, the father of hybrid rice, was able to receive such a high honor - the contribution of others, can be called great!

However, despite this, there are still large areas in China that cannot be planted - deserts, deserts, saline-alkali lands, Gobi deserts... These places are either water shortage, water quality cannot be planted, or excessive planting causes soil deterioration, inability to plant, etc.

Therefore, water-saving planting is the best solution for planting in deserts, saline-alkali lands and other places - however, this technology is always only in the research stage.

But then Lin Dong felt relieved. This topic must have been studied by many people. As for what level can Tian Minjie study? The breakthrough in water-saving planting technology in the encyclopedia was created by an agricultural professor named Deng Haiguo and a scientific research team fifteen years later. It did not mention anything about Tian Minjie... So, how is the water-saving technology developed by Tian Minjie still to be further tested.

But since there is, you might as well give it a try. Lin Dong smiled and said, "This is a good recipe. To be honest! Where have you been studying?"

"There have been preliminary results." Seeing Lin Dong being interested, Tian Minjie immediately became excited. "The wrapped seed technology we have developed has been able to sprout and take root in deserts, or equivalent to deserts, but... it's just that the growth is not smooth... the mortality rate has reached 80%..."

Is this person too honest?

After hearing this, the other three people had a terrible expression. You were at least a little hopeful. It was too pessimistic. Who would invest money for you?

Lin Dong was not as disappointed as they imagined, but said with interest: "What seeds have you tried? Is it improved or is it just making a fuss outside the seed?"

"All of them." Tian Minjie was not sure how many mistakes he had made in the eyes of his peers. When talking about his major, his speech speed returned to normal and he could speak smoothly and fluently: "We tried various seeds such as wheat, cotton, millet, corn, etc., and even some weeds. For example, tare grass, etc. The results of the experiment were different. Some seeds were wrapped and improved and could survive in the soil in the desert. However, the plants had changed, the growth period became shorter, and the solidity was less and weak... At present, our funding was short. The simulation environment was not real enough... so..."

What I said before was OK, but later when it came time to ask for funds, Tian Minjie became sensational and his tone was not so sure.

This is really not a good salesman!

Lin Dong sighed secretly, but this should be a good researcher!

Looking at Tian Minjie's nervous expression, Lin Dong said quietly: "Okay, when this New Year's Day event is over, I will go to your laboratory to learn about your experimental data, and then decide whether there is hope for investment. Here is my business card, just contact me at that time."

Lin Dong handed Tian Minjie the business card, looked at the expectant gaze of others, and sent a few more pictures.

When Hou Ruohai took the business card, he showed a forced smile on his face, and said honor, but he was complaining in his heart that he was better than a farmer than a computer network!

Another group of classmates came over, naturally trying to get to know Lin Dong, so Hou Ruohai turned around and left.

"Lao Hou, what are you getting?" A familiar friend came over and asked, "Have Lin Dong invested in you? I heard that this time they got a contract of 40 million US dollars from Oscars!"

"How can you get anything?" Hou Ruohai took a sip of red wine and said depressedly: "A stingy man, I have to evaluate our website before talking about it. This is obviously not to give us face. After all, we are his senior brothers!"

In fact, Hou Ruohai knew in his heart that his small website had no future in development. This was the fact that he recognized after he put it online in the second week. The reason why he was still struggling to support it is to be able to get a sum of money and then get rid of the website and leave. Unexpectedly, Lin Dong really didn't act as a sucker, which made Hou Ruohai feel extremely uncomfortable.

"Don't look at how he laughs now," the friend whispered: "Do you know? The virtual helmet he made is fine, but the supporting game is said to be intercepted, and it is impossible to pass the level, and it is stuck and not allowed to issue a license. If there is no supporting game, what's the use of that helmet? Look, it's going to be a big deal!"

"No way? I heard that Lin Dong's backstage is very tough..." Hou Ruohai was surprised, "Is this news fake?"

"What's the use of hard background? If you encounter something harder, you still have to fall into it? You can't see if you can't pass this month..."

Hou Ruohai looked at Lin Dong who was chatting and laughing over there, and his smile seemed to have a thorn in his heart. If he had smiled like this to himself just now, caring as much as Tian Minjie, even if he invested 10,000 yuan to the website, he would have immediately sold the news to him... But now... after hesitating for a moment, Hou Ruohai's face returned to normal: "Since that's the case, let's go and see, and I don't know if he can pass this level... Young people, if you fall a little and learn some lesson, it will still be beneficial to future development!"

After hearing his words, that friend said nothing. Human nature is really complicated!

ps: Thanks to the monthly tickets from the huh-hee-hee book friends. The subscription has been relatively poor recently. I am considering whether to anti-pirated version. After all, I heard that anti-pirated version can increase subscriptions and let those book friends who read pirated websites return to the starting point... (To be continued.)
