Without Longquan wine, Gu Feitian ate a few bites of the dish and said, "It's such a good dish without wine, it's a waste of it." Zhang Ziqiu said with a smile, "Didn't you say that your liver is bad and you can't drink?"

Gu Feitian said embarrassedly: "My liver is so strange. He will get sick when he drinks good wine, but he will talk too much about the wine we brew ourselves! Ze Qiu, don't talk nonsense, go and get it!"

Then he turned to Li Xiaogang and smiled, "Don't look at our desert where we are not born in a desert, but we produce one thing."

Zhang Ziqiu got up and went to get the wine. Li Xiaogang asked with interest: "What's it?"

Gu Feitian took a few touches from his arms, took out a few grass roots that looked like long beards, and said, "Bulb grass!"

"This... is this grass?" Li Xiaogang took the so-called bulb grass from his hand, and found that the root system of the bulb grass was abnormally high, layer by layer, as if it was a big net woven.

At the top of the root system, there is a small green ball about the size of a ping-pong ball, which should be the above-ground part of the bulb grass.

Gu Feitian said slowly: "We are located in the desert, and what we lack the most is water. In order to absorb more water, these plants work hard to cultivate their roots so that they can take root deeper and closer to groundwater!"

Li Xiaogang was excited and said, "Since the bulb grass can survive here, it means there is indeed water under this desert! Right?"

Gu Feitian smiled and said, "That's natural! But the groundwater storage location is very deep, and you will understand when you look at these root systems. But what I want to tell you is not the problem of water, but this grassroots. Do you want to eat it and try it?"

Li Xiaogang cut off a small piece and stuffed it into his mouth. As soon as he bit his teeth, a sweet juice immediately flowed out, spreading between his teeth and lips. He couldn't help but smile and said, "It's so sweet! There is also a faint grass fragrance, but there is no slight smell of earth. It's really good!"

Gu Feitian laughed and said, "You like it too, right? This is our snack on weekdays. Everyone has a few pieces in their pockets and they can chew them when they are free. But the biggest advantage of this bulb grass is to be used to make wine."

"Making wine!? Can this be brewed?" Zhou Zongnan, as a senior botanist, naturally knew this special plant growing deep in the desert. He even knew it could be eaten, but he never thought that this could be used to make wine! "Why? Don't you believe it? No, here you come!"

Gu Feitian said, pointing to Zhang Ziqiu who was staggering in the jar of big wine.

Zhang Ziqiu patted the wine jar in his hand and said, "I went to the cellar for a few times, and then I found two jars delicious enough. One jar is here, and I asked the comrades to divide the other jar!"

Gu Feitian nodded with a smile, and then he opened the mud seal with one hand. A strong aroma of wine came. Li Xiaogang frowned and said, "It's really wine! It tastes quite fragrant!"

Gu Feitian smiled and said, "Try it first and then talk about it!"

After saying that, poured a large bowl for each person. Li Xiaogang picked up the wine bowl and looked carefully. He found that the wine made of bulb grass had a pure milky white, a bit like diluted milk.

After smelling it, although the fragrance is rich, it does not last long.

After drinking it all, Li Xiaogang felt more sweet, but the spicy wine was negligible and the fragrance was lacking. He always felt that it was not like real wine. It was more appropriate to say that he was a drink.

Seeing Li Xiaogang's brows slightly bulging, Gu Feitian laughed and said, "This bulb grass is a grass after all. The alcohol content is too small and the sugar content is also a lot, so the wine brewed is more like a drink. However, in this deserted desert, it is worth laughing at if you can drink this, so just give it a try!"

"Wow, the taste is very good, it's so special!"

A scream came, and it turned out that Li Shuang couldn't help but be curious and took a sip.

Seeing Li Shuang's satisfied expression, Qin Qin also picked up the wine bowl and took a sip. The next second he also praised it and said repeatedly: "It's really good. I have never drunk such a good drink."

Seeing Qin Qin and Li Shuang looking very satisfied, Li Xiaogang was moved and curious. If he added wine heart grass when brewing this kind of wine, what would the result be? Although Longquan wine tastes very good, it is also very popular among consumers, and has brought countless economic benefits to Longquan Group, Longquan Group has always been troubled by the problem of single varieties.

Li Xiaogang didn't think about adding varieties, but he struggled with no good inspiration.

It would be great if we could take the opportunity to create a drink that is widely loved by the world.

After all, it seems that more people don’t drink alcohol than those who drink alcohol.

Li Xiaogang asked Gu Feitian: "Brother Gu, are there many bulb grasses like this?"

Zhou Zongnan smiled and said, "I can answer you this! Bulb grass is a common plant that lives in the desert. As long as you are willing to look for it, it will be everywhere."

Li Xiaogang nodded and said, "That's good!"

Seeing Li Xiaogang's thoughtful look, Qin Qin couldn't help asking curiously: "Hey, what's the idea you have come up with again?" Li Xiaogang looked at her, stuffed the whole bulb grass into his mouth, chewed it hard, and said: "If you talk to me again, I will ignore you in the future!"

Qin Qin stuck out her tongue playfully and said loudly: "Hey, I was wrong! Hey, can you forgive me? Hey, go and die!"

Li Xiaogang curled his lips, his face full of helplessness, but he made Zhou Zongnan, Gu Feitian and others laugh endlessly.

Whether it is wine or a drink, as long as you treat it as wine, you can taste the wine.

Everyone had a great time drinking one cup and one bowl. The atmosphere was even more lively.

Gu Feitian had completely let go of his last scruples, hugged Li Xiaogang's shoulder and asked with a smile: "Brother, tell Brother Gu, are you here to visit this desert where birds do not shit? "

Li Xiaogang smiled bitterly and said, "Tourism? Do you think I have such a good life?"

"Then what are you here to do? And what are you going to lend me a prisoner for use? What are you saying?" Gu Feitian hugged Li Xiaogang anxiously and asked repeatedly.

Li Xiaogang said two words mysteriously, "Planting trees!"

"Planting trees!?" Gu Feitian was stunned on the spot and couldn't help laughing, "I heard it right? Do you want to plant trees in this desert? Don't you know that the sand under our feet is the most ruthless. They only devour life and will never give birth to life. If I weren't crazy, then you must be crazy!"

Li Xiaogang took a sip of wine and said, "The desert is ruthless, but people have feelings! Here, right in this ruthless desert under our feet, aren't there still people who are sentimental and intentional in your life like you? Your concern for comrades and your love for prisoners have touched me. I firmly believe that those who are sentimental will definitely conquer the ruthless desert!"

Gu Feitian smiled bitterly and said, "These are two different things. Conquering the desert is useless to be affectionate? That requires wisdom!"

Li Xiaogang laughed and said, "We are even more lacking in wisdom. Come on, let me introduce you to these friends." He pointed at Li Xiang and said, "This is a well-known professor at S Agricultural University. He is now independently presiding over the operation of a scientific research institute." After saying that, he turned to Zhou Keqing and Zhou Zongnan and said, "These two are national treasure professors in the Department of Biology at Tsinghua University and the other are authoritative Botany College of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. They enjoy a high reputation internationally."

After saying that, Li Xiaogang glanced at Li Shuang and Qin Qin and said, "…wait."

Li Xiaogang's words made Li Shuang and Qin Qin angry. They pinched Li Xiaogang's waist from left to right, and shouted angrily: "Wait? Who of us is waiting? What do you mean? Are you looking down on others so much?" Li Xiaogang endured the pain and apologized repeatedly, which made the two women let him go.

Gu Feitian was surprised when he heard the identities of these people, one by one, and looked at Li Xiaogang and asked, "Where are you, brother? Are you also a scientist?"

Li Xiaogang said with shame: "It is really a humiliation that the words "scientists have such noble words falling on me, I am just one..."

"Is a profit-oriented businessman!"

Qin Qin continued Li Xiaogang's words in revenge.

Li Xiaogang shrugged and said, "You heard that I am just a profiteer." With scientific research and financial support, the team in front of him seemed to be really aimed at conquering the desert.

Gu Feitian was cheered up and asked, "So, what you said before is true?" Li Xiaogang smiled bitterly and said, "Or what do you really think we are here to play?"

Gu Feitian frowned and asked, "Can we really plant trees in the desert here?"

Li Xiaogang nodded and said, "Now the theoretical research has been completed. We are here to do the experiment this time, so I hope Brother Gu can support and help!"

"Finish! If you can really turn this endless desert into a green forest, I will help you even if I try my best!"

Gu Feitian said excitedly.

Li Xiaogang shook his head and said, "Our purpose is not to turn this place into a forest, but to turn it into the world's largest farming base and make it a new granary for our country! A few years later, when you look out the window again, what you see will no longer be the sand in the sky, but a grain field that sways lightly in the wind.

Golden wheat, green corn, soybeans, even grapes, orchards. By then, you will be able to eat fresh vegetables every day and you will never have to eat pickles again…”

Listening to Zhang Jue's description in his ear, Gu Feitian seemed to be brought to a wonderful, full of vitality and beauty by Li Xiaogang.

The scenery there is picturesque, people's lives are comfortable and relaxed. On the green grassland, everyone sang and danced, and the joyful laughter filled the sky above the entire vineyard.

Gu Feitian felt that he was a little bit, and was immersed in the bright future described by Li Xiaogang.

But will that day really come? Looking at Li Xiaogang's twinkling eyes like stars, Gu Feitian said calmly in his heart: "Yes, there will definitely be such a day!"
