Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 1485 Experiment
"So, this is the situation." Zhu Xianxun looked at Long Long who was sitting in front of him, "We need you to work somewhere else temporarily."

Previously, Longlong participated in his "panacea" plan, which was the formula he exchanged from Xu Fu.

"Mimi?" Longlong tilted his head and looked over.

"Stop pinching me! It's not like I didn't hold you when you were a kid. Your voice wasn't like this when you were a kid."

"Mimi mimi mimi."

"I think you have forgotten how a panda calls. The sound a panda makes is baa-baa-baa. Let me remind you again, writing the panda's call as 'mimimi' is a plot from the TV series Fox Fairy at Home. What on earth do you watch?"

"Baaaa?"

"It's too late to cram now."

"Okay." Rumble gave up and lay back, "But even if you see through my disguise, I won't move."

"You interfered with my alchemy, and I'm not going to let you get away with it."

Not long ago, Long Long disturbed his alchemy - the recipe for the panacea he had taken from Xu Fu. At that time, Zhu Xianxin stuffed every element of the periodic table into it. But it was only with Long Long's reminder that he realized that the important thing about alchemy is not only the beginning, but also the end.

After that, Zhu Xianxin spent a lot of money to hire Longlong to his laboratory. He changed Longlong's family's diet to fruits and vegetables, and reduced the proportion of bamboo.

It's not about money. In fact, it's cheaper to send fruits and vegetables, because the amount of bamboo that pandas eat is very large, and it is impossible for the park to produce all of it, but it needs to be purchased from outside. Bamboo is essentially a kind of grass, which is difficult to keep fresh, so we can't store a lot of it at once, and we can only use vehicles for land transportation frequently. In order to maintain the original ecology, these bamboos are delivered to the Imperial Garden in complete pieces, and the shipping cost of transporting these bamboos is very expensive.

There is no such trouble for fruits and vegetables, which can be purchased directly in the market. In fact, the shipping cost of bamboo alone can cover most of these expenses.

This is an industrialized society, and you have to pay extra for things that no one else buys. But you can often get discounts for things that everyone else uses, especially for products with very large production volumes, such as fruits and vegetables.

It's like feeding leftovers to a dog, it's basically free.

But the question is - can a public dog eat leftovers? The panda is not his, and even if it is the imperial garden, it is not entirely under Zhu Xianxun's control. Moreover, how animals are raised and how feed is prepared is a scientific issue and cannot be changed due to personal factors. You cannot feed pandas what they like to eat just because you like them, instead of what they should eat.

However, now, Longlong, as a panda, has raised objections to this diet plan. He previously believed that pumpkin should be used to replace bamboo, and then a large amount of fruits and vegetables should be added to the diet. But this may cause three highs for pandas, which is not healthy at all and is not reasonable.

As for why Longlong asked for this, it was simple, it was delicious. People's diets are not always so healthy, such as soda. The glutinous rice balls for breakfast are a mixture of sugar and oil, and roast duck is a particularly unhealthy food after being smoked and burned. If people eat for health, then these things should not be eaten at all.

Ultimately, Longlong is preparing food that his family likes to eat, and he is willing to take responsibility for this choice.

In theory, this is against the rules, because the lives of animals should be guided by science. But in order to allow Longlong to provide help and guidance in the plan, Zhu Xianxi made a decision. He decided to bear the cost of changing the rules himself and agreed to let Longlong himself, his wife and children eat the fruit to their heart's content.

However, several months have passed and there has been no progress in the experiment that Long Long participated in.

He originally asked Longlong to research the panacea, a kind of elixir that can cure all diseases and restore the human body to normal. This is a benefit that the court is preparing to provide to everyone before ascending, so that more people can go to the next level.

However, the research on this panacea has not yet been completed, but the golden elixir that can make people immortal has made great progress. Although the nature of the two is different——

Panacea is a positive and active medicine that can prolong life. The golden elixir is ultimately a poison. The power to restore health comes from the future of the body. It also emphasizes performance rather than health, so that a person can exert his or her mental and physical strength at his or her peak, which is a huge consumption of the body.

After all, this is actually exchanging one's lifespan for energy. If it weren't for the immortality of the [Silent Work] stage later, this drug would be a real poison.

It was precisely because of the price that the refining of the golden elixir was quite smooth. However, because the effect of the panacea was so perfect, there has been no progress to this day.

This made Zhu Xianxi lose his patience with Longlong.

He naturally would not go back on his promise to Longlong, but now he asked Longlong to take another job.

"I protest." Long Long climbed onto the stool and sat down. "We agreed to only do one job, why do you want another one now?"

"Working? Think about what you have been doing in the lab these past few months—you just changed the place where you sleep! You haven't even taken action once."

"The time has not come yet. How can you ask me to interrupt the alchemy? It is obviously not your destiny."

"Then I want to extend the experimental plan now. What do you say? Ensuring the external safety of the laboratory is also part of the experiment."

"I protest!"

"Protests are useless. If you had really done the work I wouldn't have said anything, but the problem is that you didn't do anything."

"I'm just your assistant. You can't expect me to provide progress when you yourself haven't made any progress."

"But wasn't the reason I hired you as my assistant that I wanted you to provide me with some progress beyond my personal efforts?"

A man and a bear started arguing in the office, and Lord Wen Zhongwen was still nearby.

He didn't know what to say. Zhu Xianxin and the panda were arguing fiercely, so he didn't want to interrupt.

"In short!" Zhu Xianxi slammed the table, "It's up to you whether you want to do it or not. Go pull the cat cart. If you don't want to do it, it's up to you."

"." Long Long was stunned for a moment, "Stop, Zhu Ling's brother, don't do this!"

"I am the Son of Heaven. Can you please stop referring to me by Zhu Ling?"

"But Zhu Ling is my breeder. I just treat you as his brother. It's just that your brother happens to be the emperor. How about this, let Zhu Ling come and talk to me and I will agree."

"She's not available. She's busy with the space program."

"She's already back, I saw her updates on the ground. I demanded a meeting with my keeper!"

"." Zhu Xianxun looked at him, "Okay."

Manage spirit animals with spirit animal methods. Zhu Xianxin was not unable to accept this ethical view - animals would rely on their keepers, just like children would rely on their parents. In the final analysis, the relationship between him and Zhu Ling was that of owner and animal, and he was just the "owner's" brother.

As for titles like emperor and son of heaven, they actually had nothing to do with Longlong. Although he knew this, he actually had always respected Zhu Xianxun as the breeder's elder brother.

He was involved in the alchemy before, so he could understand it. But now Zhu Xianxun wanted to force him to do something he didn't want to do, so he would protest.

"I'll call Zhu Ling over. If she also wants you to pull a cart, what will you say?" "If Zhu Ling asks me to pull a cart, I will do it."

"Okay, it's a deal. Someone has to pull the cat cart. Even if we call her over, the result won't change."

Zhu Ling withdrew from the space station some time ago, and has not yet returned. Anyway, she already has a celestial body, and it is quite easy for her to travel back and forth between heaven and earth. She can go back at any time - she will wait until Shangluo returns before going back.

However, she didn't have much chance to deal with Longlong's affairs during this period, as she was mainly attending classes at school.

"Then wait a minute. I'll call her over. She doesn't have classes this afternoon."

"How about I go first?" asked Elder Wen. Calling the panda to discuss was just a business matter. If he called the princess back, it would be a private matter, so Elder Wen couldn't stay here for too long.

"Well, take care, Lord. You, go and see him off." Zhu Xianxun was talking on the phone while directing Longlong to go to work.

Longlong glanced at Master Wen and jumped down from the chair - he was not that lazy and could still do this kind of work.

The man and the bear walked down the stairs. Longlong sent Master Wen to the door, and he stopped there without taking a step further.

"Goodbye." Longlong turned around and went upstairs.

"Oh." Elder Wen sighed and picked up the phone.

"Shangluo, my grandfather said the experiment didn't go well."

Shangluo and Wenyuan walked side by side on the streets of Warsaw. As part of the occupation army, they were followed by a whole team of Prussian soldiers wherever they went.

"Really?" Shang Luo glanced at the time. "At this point, it's already afternoon in Jinei, but it's still morning here - so what happened?"

"There are no cats that can pull carts over there. It seems that in Kinai, cat carts are defined as red leopard and civet cat carts, so they find spiritual animals like pandas that are both leopards and have patterns to pull carts."

"No. This is different, isn't it? Red leopard and civet cat, it should be a red leopard and a civet cat, how can it be split in the middle to form a 'leopard pattern'? You use the word "really" to make a sentence, and you end up making 'The apples I ate today were really delicious'?"

"But there are no other red-striped leopards and civet cats in Kinai, so just treat this as an intertextuality. In fact, it's a red-striped leopard and civet cat, huh."

"The red-striped leopard civet cat should look for a panda with red stripes. What's the point of looking for Longlong? Longlong is black and white."

"There are red ones? Are you sure you don't mean the red panda?"

"Yes, there is a reddish-brown version of the panda. You don't know? I'll ask Zhu Ling later."

When Shangluo dialed the phone, the situation there was already in chaos.

"Zhu Ling! Help me!" A rumbling voice came out from the receiver, "Your brother wants me to pull the cart!"

As he spoke, the rumbling sound became louder and softer, farther and closer, as if it was rotating at high speed.

"I know you should stop rolling around, okay? I'm negotiating with my brother."

"But I don't care how you negotiate. I still have to go pull the cart. Woo woo woo."

Zhu Xianxin's voice also emerged: "If the carpet is broken, take it from your diet!"

"I said, Brother, I actually have a plan."

"Did you hear that? Shang Tianjun has a plan. Stop rolling around!"

It became quiet over there for a while, and Zhu Xianxun also breathed a sigh of relief.

"I really regret it. Why did I listen to him and ask Zhu Ling to come over?"

"What's wrong?" Shangluo asked.

"This kid is too cunning. He knew there were outsiders here, and he didn't want to embarrass himself in front of everyone. As a result, after calling Zhu Ling and sending the ministers away, he immediately started rolling on the ground like a dumpling and couldn't get up. No matter how much we persuaded him, it was useless. He just didn't want to pull the cart."

"I say, Senior Brother, have you ever considered using it?"

Shangluo repeated the proposal of "Red-striped Leopard and Cat" to him.

"Red-striped leopard civet?" Zhu Xianxin was stunned for a moment, "There are also different-colored versions of pandas?"

"In fact, there really are," Zhu Ling nodded. "In the Qinling Mountains in Shaanxi, rare reddish-brown pandas have been found before. However, due to their rarity, we haven't actually encountered them up close yet. We have only seen them from afar. It's amazing that Shangluo knows this."

"I see." Zhu Xianxun said in a deep voice, "Indeed, if it is a reddish-brown panda, it will meet the requirements of a red-striped leopard civet cat. Hey, do we have to invite another panda?"

"I'll go!" Longlong stopped rolling around immediately, "I'll catch it!"

"Hey, hey, hey, pandas are your people." Zhu Xianxun wondered, "Are you just going to betray your people like that?"

"What do you mean by betrayal? It's so nice to work for the court. You'll have food and drink, and we can discuss anything."

"What he said is actually true," Zhu Ling said helplessly, "Pandas are a species that are inexplicably very adaptable to living with humans. Some pandas, after eating human food, especially things like honey cakes, never want to return to the wild. Even if they are sent hundreds of kilometers away for release, it will take several years to find them again. They can't be thrown away even if you want to - wild animals usually yearn for freedom, but there are always some pandas that particularly yearn for life in the system."

"So I am working for the welfare of my fellow people. Your Majesty the Holy Emperor, don't you agree?" Long Long stood up.

"Why do you only call me His Majesty the Emperor at this time? So it's settled, you go and catch him?"

"Well, I'll go catch the red panda."

"Do you need help?"

"No, just prepare a parachute bag for me. The Qinling Mountains are too deep. I don't want to walk there, so I'll just parachute over. In a few days, I must persuade the red-striped leopard civet to come and pull the cart."
