Chapter 195: Sowing and Reaping! Ma Jun!

Liu Xian, Zhao Han, and Wei Yuan were all very puzzled, but they were even more curious about what important item had prompted the need for an A-level scientific product escort to Liyuan Farm.

Since they had received a call from the provincial government, they had no choice but to cooperate. They didn't even try to inquire with Liyuan Farm, understanding the rules and knowing that such a situation shouldn't be probed.

Liu Xian quickly notified the county police department and personally accompanied a few police cars to the highway entrance of Youcheng to wait.

While waiting, they soon saw the escort convoy arriving.

Seeing the police cars waiting, Zheng Baishan knew what was going on and had his men pull over before getting out of the car. Since Zhao Chong had arranged for the Youcheng team to cooperate, it was necessary to make the proper handover.

"Academician Zheng," Wei Yuan said, his face full of surprise, hurriedly greeting him with respect.

In the agricultural community, he naturally knew Zheng Baishan's status and contributions to domestic agriculture.

"Academician Zheng, we are ready to assist you. Shall we head to Liyuan Farm now?" Liu Xian also quickly approached, respectfully speaking.

To them, the elder was no different from a young upstart.

"Let's go!" Zheng Baishan nodded.

At Liu Xian's invitation, he also got into the county's car. Wei Yuan sat in the front passenger seat, while Zhao Han had to squeeze into a police car with two officers.

The convoy became even longer.

As they drove towards Liyuan Farm, Zheng Baishan couldn't help but praise, "Liu Xian, Youcheng has produced an outstanding young man. I really admire him."

"Mr. Zhang is indeed admirable. Youcheng has also benefited greatly from him, becoming better and better," Liu Xian quickly agreed, knowing who he was referring to.

Zheng Baishan smiled and said, "That also shows that Youcheng has the wisdom to recognize talent. If someone was blind to talent, not only would the person not develop, but they might even face suppression. Many self-important people like to play balancing games, which only creates chaos."

Indeed, unless both sides are evenly matched, competition can produce a chemical effect. Otherwise, it drags everyone down, like Kai Lin Investment.

Such a young man is one of a kind, and it's hard to find another like him in this industry.

At least in this era, they felt there might only be one such person.

Zheng Baishan smiled again, "This time, Mr. Zhang has done us a great favor, so I came specially."

Hearing this, Liu Xian couldn't help but ask, "Old Mr. Zheng, what exactly are you here for? We were quite surprised when we received the notification."

Zheng Baishan also smiled, "There's no need to hide it from you. It's a medicinal herb called Mosigan Flower. This herb can be used to make a drug that can only be imported and treats various conditions. Because of its high price, many families struggle to afford it."

Liu Xian understood the reason after hearing this.

Luckily, this was in China, so Old Mr. Zheng could bring just a few cars.

If this happened abroad, producing such a herb would cut off the pharmaceutical companies' profits, and they would likely send mercenaries after you.

But he couldn't understand when Mr. Zhang had managed to produce this herb?

It seemed to have happened suddenly.

The convoy moved forward, passing through the main streets of Youcheng, drawing much attention.

Soon, the convoy arrived at Liyuan Farm. The escort personnel got out of their vehicles and secured the area, preventing anyone from getting too close.

This scene caught the attention of the surrounding tourists, who, seeing the weapons in the hands of the escort personnel, dared not approach.

Liu Xian immediately welcomed Zheng Baishan into Liyuan Farm, followed by the escort personnel carrying special transport containers.

Zhang Lin naturally received the news first and met Liu Xian and Old Mr. Zheng as he came out of the office center.

"Old Mr. Zheng, welcome, welcome!" Zhang Lin greeted him warmly.

He hadn't expected the old man to come in person, which showed his dedication.

"Mr. Zhang, I never thought you would bring us such good news so quickly," Zheng Baishan said, unable to hide his amazement.

"Old Mr. Zheng, it seems even the heavens want your provincial research institute to develop this herb," Zhang Lin laughed.

"Indeed, Mr. Zhang is right," Zheng Baishan couldn't help but laugh, then asked, "Mr. Zhang, I'm very curious about how you changed the color of the Mosigan Flower?"

The method was a colorful mutation, but he couldn't reveal that.

So, he could only shake his head and say, "Old Mr. Zheng, I'm not a scientist. I really don't know how to answer that. It's all thanks to Ma Jun. He researched it."

He naturally pushed all the credit to Ma Jun.

Such a good scapegoat shouldn't be wasted.

"Ma Jun?" Zheng Baishan was taken aback.

Liu Xian, Zhao Han, and Wei Yuan were also stunned.

The name was both familiar and somewhat strange.

They remembered this person. His online antics had caused a stir, and when he suddenly became associated with Liyuan Farm, they were all confused.

It seemed like two completely unrelated parties, yet Liyuan Farm had suddenly stood by him and offered him a 100,000 RMB monthly salary.

At the time, he had even called the provincial government, using their connections to fend off South China University.

Zheng Baishan also recalled this person.

At the time, due to owing a favor to Liyuan Farm and unable to tolerate the underhanded dealings of Huannong University, he had agreed to intervene and protect Liyuan Farm.

Their agricultural system in Fujian Province didn't need outsiders meddling.

The incident eventually died down, and later, Liyuan Farm announced that Ma Jun would be joining their team.

But he never imagined that the person who managed to develop the Moxiguan flower in such a short time would be this Ma Jun.

This...

He really didn't know how to express his feelings at the moment.

The saying "as you sow, so shall you reap" must be what this means.

If they hadn't helped Ma Jun back then, he wouldn't have come to Liyuan Farm, and there wouldn't have been this Moxiguan flower.

"Damn, that Huannong University is really a bunch of dogs." Zheng Baishan couldn't help but curse.

Anyone could see how brilliant Ma Jun's research capabilities were, given his ability to fundamentally alter the Moxiguan flower in such a short time.

Yet, this young man was almost prevented from graduating and even nearly ruined by Huannong University.

If not for Liyuan Farm's support, it would have been a loss to the country.

Truly despicable.

This matter couldn't just be left like this.

He didn't want to meddle in other people's affairs, but having dedicated his life to agriculture, he couldn't stand by and watch someone destroy such outstanding talent for their own selfish gain.

Zhang Lin was taken aback by the old man's cursing.

This old man was really... a man of passion.

"Mr. Zhang, let's go see the Moxiguan flower and Ma Jun," Zheng Baishan said quickly. "We owe Ma Jun a favor this time. If possible, I can help him resolve his academic issues so he doesn't have any regrets. Our Fujian Agricultural University is also quite good, and I can personally serve as his recommendation mentor."

"Old Mr. Zheng, you are truly considerate," Zhang Lin was somewhat surprised. The offer of a recommendation from a renowned academician was something others could only dream of, especially when it came to Huannong University.

When the matter resurfaced, it would undoubtedly embarrass Huannong University.

For some reason, he sensed that the old man was doing this on purpose, though he wasn't sure if he was mistaken.

"Mr. Zhang, please lead the way!" Zheng Baishan said eagerly.

"Old Mr. Zheng, please follow me," Zhang Lin nodded and led the old man into the office center, with the security guards carrying the special transport containers following closely behind.

The group's arrival naturally caught the attention of the farm employees.

Zhang Lin waved at the employees, and they quickly understood and returned to their work without making a fuss.

Soon, Zhang Lin led the group to the research lab, where they found Ma Jun conducting his research.

Zheng Baishan stepped into the lab and observed the modest setup, which clearly hadn't hindered Ma Jun's work.

At that moment, Ma Jun noticed the group and, knowing their purpose, said bluntly, "Mr. Zhang, have them take the things and leave. With so many people around, the air feels oppressive and it's affecting my research."

This made Zheng Baishan feel awkward; Ma Jun was giving no one any face.

However, it was normal for someone with such exceptional abilities to have a peculiar personality.

Zhang Lin, feeling embarrassed, said, "Ma Jun, this is Old Mr. Zheng. Please meet him."

He knew Ma Jun was being deliberately difficult, having lost all trust in official figures after the Huannong University incident.

It wasn't personal; he was against all official figures now.

Hearing his boss speak, Ma Jun couldn't ignore it and put down his work to give a perfunctory greeting, "Old Mr. Zheng, hello."

Zheng Baishan sensed this and wasn't bothered, instead smiling and asking, "Ma Jun, you were doing research just now. What was it about?"

Ma Jun replied casually, "Bougainvillea. Originally, it only had one color, but I managed to change it to five colors. Once successful, the bougainvillea on the market will be trash."

"I see, so the Moxiguan flower used this method," Zheng Baishan realized.

Wei Yuan and Liu Xian's eyes lit up instantly.

They understood what this meant. If Liyuan Farm could produce such bougainvillea, they could promote and cultivate this flower industry, much like they did with the white sweet potatoes.

Ma Jun, not wanting to waste more time, walked to the window, picked up the Moxiguan flower seedling, and handed it to Zheng Baishan, "This is what you need."

Zheng Baishan was stunned as he held the Moxiguan flower seedling.

Did he just pick it up from the window?

They had mobilized A-level security for this, and he just left it on the windowsill?

Even the security guards were bewildered.

The person carrying the special transport container instinctively looked at his container, feeling a bit dazed.

Doesn't he know how significant this is, and how much recognition it could bring?

"Quick, quick, put the seedling in the container, don't touch it," Zheng Baishan immediately instructed the security guards.

He now understood the meaning of "treasure what others discard."

Facing such a groundbreaking achievement, Ma Jun's nonchalance showed that he truly didn't care, and also indicated that his talents went far beyond this.

Zheng Baishan looked at Ma Jun, his eyes growing brighter and more intense.
