After hearing Yang Lin's words, General Chen also cast a curious look at the pond in the greenhouse over there.

"Good boy, Xiao Fang, you are really good."

"Not only have they opened up such a large piece of land, but they've even started raising livestock."

"What kind of thing are you raising? Why are you so secretive? Are you afraid that we'll go broke eating you out, so you don't dare take us over to see it?"

"Mr. Chen's words make me seem like a stingy person."

Hearing this, Fang Yu smiled and said.

"The reason I didn't take you with me isn't because I'm afraid you'll eat me."

"It's precisely because this thing is too embarrassing that I don't want to tell you."

"Fang Yu, what you said seems to be a bit disrespectful to us."

Hearing Fang Yu's words, General Chen shook his head and said with some dissatisfaction.

"Thinking back to when we were climbing snow-capped mountains and crossing grasslands, starving to death with nothing to eat or drink, I even ate grass roots and tree bark."

"There's really nothing I can't eat in my diet."

"Even if the things you raise in the pond are bad, they can't be worse than grass roots and tree bark, right?"

"Yeah, yeah, among us, who hasn't gone through hard times?"

"Director Fang, you really worry too much."

At this time, Yang Lin also echoed.

"Director Fang, please take us over for a tour."

At this time, after seeing the various crops planted by Fang Yu, Yang Lin was completely convinced by Fang Yu.

So, in Yang Lin’s opinion, no matter what the thing in the greenhouse pond is.

They are definitely species with extremely high yields.

If I can bring it back and promote it in the south of Longguo, then there will be at least one more edible food on the dining table of Longguo.

So, even if he had to be shameless, he had to go and take a look.

"Well, since both Mr. Chen and Dean Yang are interested in this thing, if I refuse again, it would seem that I am too greedy."

"Everyone, follow me."

After saying that, Fang Yu led the group to the front of the greenhouse.

After the door was opened, everyone entered one after another.

But as soon as they entered the greenhouse, the group of people from the imperial capital, represented by Yang Lin, were not as shocked as before.

Instead, he showed a hint of confusion.

Unlike other greenhouses, this greenhouse does not have a field, but a pond that is one acre square.

Above the pond, Fang Yu built dozens of steel structures, but no one knew what they were used for.

The pond is not as clear as an ordinary fish pond.

Instead, a thick, inky green algae covered the surface of the water, completely covering the bottom of the pond...

Seeing this scene, Yang Lin felt that his brain was not enough.

According to common sense, no matter what Fang Yu is cultivating, there cannot be such thick algae on the surface of the pond.

Once there is too much of this thing, it will not only completely block the surface of the pond and block the sunlight in the pond, but also be detrimental to the growth of aquatic organisms.

Moreover, these algae have a huge demand for oxygen.

Once they grow wildly, the pond will become a stagnant pool.

No matter whether Fang Yu raises fish or shrimp, they will definitely not survive.

It’s such a simple thing that even ordinary people who have been involved in farming for a few days know it.

How could Fang Yu not know this?

If someone had told him this before, Yang Lin might have believed it.

After all, Fang Yu's major is industry, so it is possible that he has no common sense about agriculture.

But, it's already now.

After seeing Fang Yu's series of improved seeds, it would be really funny if anyone still said that Fang Yu was a young master who knew nothing about farming.

But, precisely because of this, Yang Lin felt even more puzzled.

Based on his understanding of Fang Yu, no matter what Fang Yu did, he would not make such a low-level mistake.

So, after looking at it for a while, Yang Lin said it in a tactful way.

"It seems that I am really old and I can't understand some things anymore."

"Director Fang, can I ask what exactly you're raising in this big pond?"

"The water quality is so bad, what can I raise to survive?"

Yang Lin's problem immediately attracted the attention of General Chen and others from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

In an instant, everyone pricked up their ears, wanting to hear Fang Yu's explanation.

After all, there were many people in their group who were proficient in breeding techniques, but they had never heard of anything being raised in such a dirty pond...

"Didn't Dean Yang already see this?"

After hearing Yang Lin’s question.

Fang Yu just smiled slightly and said lightly.

"?"

Hearing this, Yang Lin frowned slightly, a look of surprise appearing on his face.

Then, his gaze fell again on the dark, ink-like water surface of the pond.

"Could it be that... Director Fang, these are the algae you're growing?"

"Yes, what I grow is algae!"

After hearing Yang Lin's words, Fang Yu nodded directly.

However, Fang Yu's words immediately caused an uproar.

Including General Chen, everyone who came from the imperial capital had a complicated look on their face.

No wonder Fang Yu refused to bring his group here before.

It turned out that he was actually growing algae!

This is a bit embarrassing.

After all, algae is edible, grows very quickly, and has a large yield.

But the problem is, this stuff has basically no nutritional value.

Eating it only makes you feel full, but it cannot provide energy to the human body like regular food.

Moreover, there are a lot of disadvantages to this thing.

Because of its strong reproductive ability, it will grow rapidly once it enters the paddy fields in the south.

Once it reaches a certain scale, it will easily cause poor ventilation, resulting in oxygen deprivation to the roots of rice in the field, and rotten seedlings and seeds.

The same is true in the pond.

Once the algae grow to a certain size, they will block the air circulation between the water and the outside, causing the oxygen content in the water to drop sharply, and all the creatures in the water will die due to lack of oxygen.

It can be said.

The disadvantages of raising this thing far outweigh the advantages.

Until now, the southern part of Longguo is still worried about how to completely eliminate the algae in the ground.

There is hardly a farmer in the country who likes this thing.

However, Fang Yu is now doing the opposite.

Not only did they not study how to get rid of this thing, but they openly cultivated it as a treasure.

If Fang Yu had not already developed domestic fertilizers for Longguo and cultivated so many high-quality and large-scale seeds.

They even had some doubts.

Could it be that Fang Yu was an undercover agent deliberately released by the imperialists like Eagle Sauce to destroy the agricultural environment of Longguo?
