Fortunately, Professor Li is also a hospitality person, and with Chen Hao, the "confidant" who showed his face, Li Zhou's endless insect explanation lasted for most of the afternoon.

Regarding the information about the fireflies that Chen Hao is most urgently lacking, Professor Li also studied it and reported more than a dozen of them at one time.

I won’t talk about the most common varieties in China like the black fireflies, Ji Hongying, and window-breasted fireflies I saw in the corridor on the first floor before. There are also some unpopular varieties such as yellow-brimmed fireflies, strip-backed fireflies, and large-scale black fireflies that were also very impressive.

"Professor Li, are there any fireflies that glow blue in nature?" Chen Hao suddenly asked suddenly.

Of course, his question was quite meaningful.

Because the flower species he selected as the [Light-Light Flower] is blue [Forget-me-not], if you want to set off the beauty of this blue petal, it is best to match it with blue fluorescence.

If it is matched with the yellow and green light of ordinary fireflies, wouldn’t it be in vain?

"Blue-lit fireflies?"

"This is not the case, because the light source of fireflies is caused by luciferase. They can only emit orange and red light. There are no blue fireflies in nature."

"As for the blue fireflies circulating on the Internet, they are all fake."

"Insects that can emit blue light in nature can only be achieved during the larvae period of a special insect in Australia. Moreover, this blue light is extremely weak and lasts for a short time, which is far inferior to the real fireflies."

"Of course, in addition to the larvae of this mushroom mosquito, like some special luminous jellyfish in the ocean, marine plankton can also emit blue light." Li Zhou introduced in detail.

Now, Chen Hao was disappointed!

"There are no fireflies that emit blue light?"

"Then I've been in vain to visit Xishuangzhou this time?" Chen Hao was a little puzzled, but he still admired Professor Li's knowledgeableness on his face.

...

The time to visit the institute passed quickly, and with the explanations of Professors Xia Xue, Li Zhou and Cao, Chen Hao did not feel bored.

As for the largest research results of this Institute of Medicinal Plant Research, it is the Chinese herbal medicine like Panax notoginseng.

Panax notoginseng, also known as Tianqi, ginseng Panax notoginseng, is a hemostatic medicinal material that is specialized in Yunsheng and is very similar to Yeshan ginseng. Li Shizhen, a famous pharmacist in the Ming Dynasty, called it "Golden Bus".

As for the use of this kind of Panax notoginseng, it is also extremely wide.

In addition to being used in large quantities in traditional Chinese medicine formulas, the most famous use of Panax notoginseng is to use it in Baiyao.

You read that right!

It's Baiyao!

It can remove blood stasis and stop bleeding, promote blood circulation and relieve pain, detoxify and reduce swelling. Almost every family will prepare a few bottles. The products are sold all over the world, with an annual output value of tens of billions, and the formula and crafts are listed as the top secret healing medicine in China.

The reason why Colonel Liu, who I met on a helicopter, respected Professor Cao so much is that this inconspicuous old man wearing glasses is one of the few great masters in China who mastered the introduction of 37 genitals.

After learning about this amazing background, Chen Hao became more and more admiring the people in the Institute of Medicinal Plants.

Not to mention anything else, Chen Hao alone started using Baiyao since he was a child.

Because this guy was naughty when he was a child, he often played and played among the ridges of the mountains and fields. In addition, the children had weak bones, so how could he not get hurt if he had too many tricks?

Whenever this happens, Chen Hao's parents will take a bottle of white medicine spray and spray Chen Hao's injured area.

Although the smell of Baiyao is not very pleasant, the real treatment effect is surprisingly amazing. As long as you don’t twist the bone, you will be sprayed with Baiyao after spraying Baiyao for three or five days.

Moreover, it is rumored that once this Baiyao encounters serious injuries, it can be applied internally to stop bleeding. As long as it is not too thoroughly injured, it can hold it in a breath after taking Baiyao. It is not much less effective than the few hundred-year-old ginseng plants catalyzed by Chen Hao before.

This made Chen Hao even more amazed: "I have come to a research institution with a very deep background."

So during the next visit, Chen Hao became serious, for fear that he would miss the famous scientific research results displayed to the public in the exhibition hall of the Institute of Medicinal Plants.

...

After I wandered around the exhibition hall and listened to some long discussions about medicinal plants, it was already evening.

At Professor Cao's warm invitation, Chen Hao followed everyone to a secluded corner of the institute and planned to have a meal in the canteen of this institute.

After all, I just finished the hotel with big fish and meat at noon, and I went to the restaurant tonight and had too much oil and water. Everyone thought it was too fucked, so I planned to have a light meal in the canteen of the institute.

But as soon as he walked to the canteen gate, Chen Hao's nose moved and suddenly smelled a rich fragrance emitting from the air.

This fragrance is not the fragrance of rice emitted from the canteen, but from a corner of the institute, similar to the fragrance of petals.

But looking around, there are no special flowers with fragrance in this institute besides the garden green plants!

So, after stopping and sniffing his nose and sniffing for two sips of fragrance, Chen Hao couldn't help asking: "Professor Cao, what kind of fragrance is this? How could it be so strong?"

"fragrance?"

"Oh! You are talking about those [Yiranxiang] plants!" Professor Cao was stunned at first, then immediately reacted, then raised his hand and pointed to the tall trees planted by the canteen, and began to explain.

It turns out that this plant that exudes a strong aroma is a tropical woody spice plant called [Yiran ylang-scent].

This kind of [Yiran ylang-scent] is an evergreen tree, and after it becomes a timber, it can be as tall as more than 20 meters. The flowers it blooms are like ordinary leaves and are extremely inconspicuous. No wonder Chen Hao looked at it for a long time but didn't find it.

However, in addition to having a unique and rich aromatic smell, this flower also has an oil yield of 2 to 3%. It is a precious raw material for the spice industry and is widely used in perfumes, soaps and cosmetics.

And I heard from Professor Cao that some well-known cosmetic companies around the world use [Yirang Xiang] flowers to extract a special spice called "Yirang Yilan" to make the most expensive natural high-quality spices and high-quality fragrance setting agents in the world today.

As for the distribution of this kind of [Yirangxiang], the production area is also extremely rare, and can only be found in Southeast Asian countries such as Myanmar, Indonesia, Malay, and the Xishuang Autonomous Prefecture of China.

Their plant [Yiranxiang] in the Plant Research Institute was also a tree species that Professor Cao specially found in the primitive dense forests of Xishuangzhou when he was young. After decades of cultivation, it has been grown to this tall and mature appearance today.

As for why Chen Hao suddenly became interested in this [Yiranxiang], it was because the fragrance of the flower that pounced on his nose was too strong.

"If you transplant this high-quality gene of [Yiranxiang] to [Forget-me-not]."

"Then can't the disadvantage of the weak smell of [Forget Me Not] be solved?" Chen Hao's heart moved, and his eyes were staring at the [Yiran Xiang] with a fiery look.

After all, after understanding before, Chen Hao was found that there were no blue-light fireflies in nature, which made Chen Hao depressed enough. However, the unexpected discovery of this unique and rich floral fragrance [Yiran scent] can solve another defect gene of Chen Hao’s [Forget Me Not].
