Year: I planted trees in Saihanba

Early the next morning.

The eight people got up early and had breakfast.

And so another day of work began.

Using timber transported up from the dam, they began constructing the main structure of the laboratory.

Another busy day.

With the combined efforts of the eight people, the laboratory was finally set up after two days.

"Xia, take a look, is there anything you're not satisfied with?"

After the laboratory was completed.

Yu Zheng came to accompany Xia Tian as she inspected the laboratory.

"Uncle Yu, set up a few more frames, tables, and chairs."

Summer made another request.

Yu Zheng came to Shangba this time to help them solve the problems in the early preparation work for seedling cultivation.

"Okay, Xia, whatever you say goes!"

"Yes, thank you for your help, Uncle Yu."

Yu Zhenglai, Qu He, and four other people started a new round of busy work.

Xia Tian was organizing the data with Engineer Chen.

Most of the materials were mailed from the Ministry of Forestry.

There were also a few sets of relatively rare materials that his teacher mailed to him in the summer.

"These materials are invaluable!"

Looking at the materials that Xia Tian had brought, Engineer Chen was deeply moved.

"Engineer Chen, with this information, I believe we will soon be able to plant trees on the dam."

"Yeah yeah!"

……

"Xia, come and take a look, is this shelf okay?"

"Okay, that's great!"

"Uncle Yu, make two more of these frames!"

Xia Tian was very satisfied with the shelf that Yu Zheng and his team had set up.

Although the raw materials are rather rough, they can withstand the skill and ingenuity of some talented people.

"Okay, as long as it works!"

Yu Zhenglai wiped the sweat from his brow and said with a smile.

After another busy day, everyone finally got the lab equipment ready.

Summer placed all the experimental equipment that came from the capital into the laboratory.

Looking at the fully occupied laboratory, Xia Tian nodded in satisfaction.

"Xia, is there anything else we can do for you?"

That evening, everyone gathered together again.

"Director Yu, that's all for now!"

"With the laboratory, we can carry out a lot of our work!"

"Leave the rest to me and Engineer Chen!"

"it is good!"

"Xia, do you think we should leave someone behind to help you?"

"No need, those four young comrades haven't been home for over a month!"

"You and Section Chief Qu are leaders, so you definitely can't stay!"

"You've already helped complete the most important task; leave the rest to us!"

"Alright, Xia, we'll head back tomorrow!"

"Supplies will be delivered to you and Engineer Chen every ten days!"

"If you need anything, just give it to the people delivering the supplies!"

"Yes, Director Yu, don't worry!"

"Okay, everyone get some rest. We'll go down to the dam first thing tomorrow morning."

Yu Zhenglai said something to the four young men.

……

"Engineer Chen, from now on, it will just be the two of us left on the dam."

"Yes, Xia, you have a long way to go!"

Early the next morning.

The six of them then went down the dam.

I got up early in the summer morning and went to the afforestation area in Laokeng.

He collected some soil from the surrounding area, intending to take it back for experiments.

"I wonder if the pH map the system gave me is real or fake?"

Summer was thinking about things, but her hands were moving quickly.

"If they all match up, then that map will be incredibly useful."

Soon, summer had completed the collection of soil samples from the surrounding land.

"This afforestation area is quite large!"

"If we can successfully cultivate seedlings on the dam, we can give it a try here."

As Xia Tian walked towards the campsite, he pondered these thoughts.

"Xia, where did you go so early in the morning?"

"Engineer Chen, I went to check on the old pit where the trees were planted."

"I collected some soil samples and plan to conduct a soil pH test."

"Soil pH? What's that?"

"Soil pH value is the acidity or alkalinity of the soil."

"Soil pH testing is essential for successful seedling cultivation."

"Is that pH value you mentioned really that magical?"

"Engineer Chen, although it's not that magical, it can still serve as an important basis."

"Okay, Xia, you're a college student, I'll listen to you."

According to Engineer Chen, seedling cultivation shouldn't be that complicated.

Just find a suitable spot, set up a seedbed, and that's it.

This requires experience.

However, Xia is a college student after all, and she learns a lot at university.

Listen to Xia Xia, you can't go wrong.

……

“Engineer Chen, look, the soil pH value of that suitable afforestation land is 7.5.”

"It is somewhat alkaline soil."

Summer looked at the experimental data she had obtained.

The data found was almost identical to the map data provided by the system.

The error is approximately 0.1.

However, in the summer, I decided to collect soil samples from several different locations.

Compare several more sets of data.

Only then can we get more accurate results.

Is it alkaline?

Looking at Xia Tian's lab report, Engineer Chen found that there were many things in it that he couldn't understand.

Xia, I don't understand this report!

"Engineer Chen, it's alright, I'll teach you!"

In the summer, Chen was led into the laboratory, and the first thing Chen was shown the experimental equipment.

One of them was willing to teach, and the other was willing to learn.

For a moment, everything was incredibly harmonious.

Soon, Engineer Chen understood the purpose of everything in the room.

"Xia, I'm getting old, I can't keep up with you young people anymore."

"The future of the country still belongs to you young people."

"It's getting late, let's call it a day!"

"There's still a long road ahead."

"Thank you, Xia!"

"Hey, Engineer Chen, let's not talk about this!"

"Okay, let's not talk about this."

……

Peking City.

Northern Forestry University.

"Tang Qi, are you really going to resist to the end?"

"Section Chief Hou, I really don't know!"

Tang Qi blinked her big, bright eyes, looking completely innocent.

That guy was so pitiful to look at.

Unfortunately, Section Chief Hou was completely oblivious to romance, staring at Tang Qi with a blank expression.

Tang Qi still doesn't know what happened.

He was perfectly fine when the security personnel brought him here without any explanation.

"I want to see Section Chief Hou! I want to see Tang Qi!"

Suddenly, a shout came from outside the security office.

"Teacher Feng, you can't go in!"

"Teacher Feng!"

"Get out of my way! Get out of my way! I need to see Section Chief Hou!"

Soon, a man who looked very much like Xia Dongqing barged into the security office.

"Teacher Feng, I heard you were looking for me?"

Section Chief Hou looked at Feng Cheng with a forced smile.

"Section Chief Hou, on what grounds are you arresting Tang Qi?"

"What exactly did Tang Qi do wrong?"

As soon as Feng Cheng saw Section Chief Hou, he began to be aggressive.

"Teacher Feng, it's like this, we are still in the investigation stage regarding Tang Qi's matter."

"As for the specifics, it's not convenient for me to tell you here."

"Then I demand to see Tang Qi!!"

"No problem, Xiao Xu, take Teacher Feng to see Tang Qi!"

After a brief consideration, Section Chief Hou agreed to Feng Cheng's request.
