Chapter 949: Chapter 943: It’s Exploding! Chapter 949: Chapter 943: It’s Exploding! Many people realized that what the forest expert had said was indeed true!

But there were also some who, despite knowing that the forest master’s words were very reasonable, couldn’t help but speak up!

[“That’s true, but I think, as people of a great agricultural nation who work so hard to plant trees, we must have developed a new method of cultivation by now!”]
[“Exactly, such a simple truth, doesn’t our country understand it?”]
[“Wake up! These are natural laws that cannot be altered by technological means!”]
[“…”]
The live broadcast instantly exploded, and Da Fei tried several times but to no avail, and finally gave up.

Instead, he walked towards the middle-aged man who was guiding the farmers in planting!

“Hello, uncle, I am Da Fei from the outdoor live broadcast!”

“Hello!”

“Uncle, how many trees have you planted?”

“One hundred thousand!”

“100,000?” Da Fei was startled, so that meant there were also one hundred thousand drones?

What a grand scale!

“Uncle, I saw you guiding them in planting saplings just now, you’re the mayor, right?”

“Hello, my name is Liu Gensheng, I am the director of the Northwest Desert Management Office!”

The moment he heard it was the director of the Northwest Desert Management Office, Da Fei immediately became excited!

“Hello, Director Liu, on behalf of the live broadcast platform, I have a few questions to ask you.”

Seeing that he was free anyway, Liu Gensheng asked those who were still watering the saplings.

“Ask.”

“Some netizens say that planting young trees in summer isn’t suitable for this season, so they can’t sprout, why do you plant them now?”

Da Fei asked such a sharp question right off the bat!

In the live broadcast room, many people were worried, it seemed they were going to be criticized!

However, Director Liu Gensheng wasn’t as unsympathetic as they thought!

He heard Da Fei’s words and chuckled.

“According to natural laws, summer indeed isn’t the best time for planting trees, but through our research, we’ve developed new saplings that can be planted in summer!”

“A new variety? Can you tell us about it?”

“I can’t tell you now, it’s a secret!”

The moment Liu Gensheng spoke, the live broadcast room immediately exploded!

[“I told you, our country definitely has something new for planting trees in this season.”]
[“That forest expert, did you hear that? He actually said our big agricultural nation is putting on a show. Pfft!”]
[“Please, look at this desert. It’s already 45 degrees Celsius here, surviving 2 hours is questionable!”]
[“Excuse me, Director, what is the survival rate of these saplings?”]
Seeing everyone asking this, Da Fei once again turned his attention to Director Liu!

“Director Liu, everyone in today’s live broadcast room is asking about the survival rate of these saplings, how successful is it?”

Upon hearing this, the director lapsed into thought. Xu Yang had planted eighteen saplings, and remarkably none had died; the survival rate was a hundred percent!

In addition, he had also asked Xu Yang about the survival rate of these saplings. Xu Yang had said it was a hundred percent success rate.

But now, with one hundred thousand Poplar trees here, there were bound to be a few that had died!

“The success rate is about ninety-five percent!”

Hearing Director Liu’s words, the forest experts in the live broadcast room couldn’t help but burst out laughing!

[Hahaha, that’s hilarious. I bet the director of the Northwest Desert Administration is fake, otherwise he wouldn’t say that!]
[You need to understand, according to data from these years, the success rate of cultivating saplings in the desert is only 5%! And you dare claim ninety-five percent, what a joke!]
[Didn’t you hear Director Liu say they’ve developed a new species?]
[Even if it’s a new plant, the survival rate of the saplings in the desert won’t exceed ten percent!]
[Idiot, if you don’t know, just shut up. I can guarantee a ninety-five percent survival rate for the saplings grown by Director Liu.]
[…]
Host Da Fei asked Director Liu Gensheng some questions, but Director Liu had other urgent matters and had to leave!

At this moment, his livestream room was exploding!

[Just wait here, I guarantee eighty percent of the saplings will get cooked by the sun!]
[The host just needs to wait two hours, and you’ll see those saplings get roasted!]
With the debate, of course, came popularity, and Da Fei’s livestream viewership climbed steadily, eventually surpassing three hundred thousand!

This was a bit too much for Da Fei, the host, to handle!

Many people were sending donations, trying to keep the host in the livestream room.

Da Fei glanced at the backstage, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

Looking backstage, there was actually eight million in donations!

This threw him into a panic, not knowing what to do. Even after the platform took its cut, he still had over four million in revenue!

Over four million, what kind of concept is that?

That’s not something ordinary people can earn!

For a moment, Da Fei even felt the urge to keep it all for himself.

But in the end, his rationality won out over everything, and he chose to donate it!

More than two hours flew by in a flash!

Da Fei looked at the saplings he had planted, seeing them all green and lush.

A breeze blew by, and the poplar trees swayed gently, as if waving at him!

Da Fei could smell a refreshing fragrance emanating from the small trees, even from a distance!

“Brothers, it’s already been two hours, and not a single sapling has died!”

Host Da Fei spoke while pointing his phone at each small tree, letting everyone see!

[Do you see now? You can no longer mislead the public in this way!]
[Our great agricultural nation really is amazing, able to grow saplings even in the summer!]
[We must admit, we underestimated those saplings, no matter how well they are nurtured, they cannot defy nature. Don’t forget, it’s only over thirty degrees now. When it reaches 2 PM, the temperature will rise to forty-five degrees, and then all the saplings will freeze to death!]
[Please hold on until 2 PM, we really need to let the forest’s idiot expert witness our country’s newly researched species!]
Seeing the desert covered in green, the livestream viewers’ confidence surged dramatically!

They hadn’t realized it yet, but Da Fei was suffering unspeakably!

After all, in this desert, there was absolutely no shade to block the sun!

Da Fei was enduring it to increase his popularity, holding on until almost twelve o’clock, when he could no longer stand the blistering desert heat.

He then told his fans that he would come back at two o’clock!

Seeing their favorite host drenched in sweat, face almost scorched by the sun, they really worried that if he left, there might not be a livestream at all!

So, they urged the host to hurry back home and then make it by two o’clock!

Two o’clock!

Da Fei drove there!

He noticed that the leaves of these saplings, under the sunlight, had only curled up a bit, and showed no signs of dying!
