Chapter 352: (EDT) Second Part - Suggestion

"This…" Lucian shamefully lowered his head slightly after getting reprimanded by Zhang Qin Feng in front of his research team. But that was not all Zhang Qin Feng had to say. He might sound reprimanding, but Zhang Qin Feng knew that he had to give this man a hint of respect he deserved.

But not while his achievement is all over his head.

"Honestly, I'm very impressed. Even I have no certainty that you people could come out with a working project with minor results within the two weeks I'm away. But you people actually make it happen."

"But again, the definition of success lingers in between a fragile line. In one step, we might look successful, but we would be failing miserably in the next second. In this post-apocalypse, we cannot be standing on this line and let the ego within us get the better of us."

"Taking this chance while all of you are here, let me remind you again. The Seed Crystal Virus we're researching is thinking about how to kill us with every single second they had."

"Right now, we might be the god that decides what would happen to them. But at the next moment, they might be the one determine our life. I am telling you this because I can see recklessness in each of you, including you, Lucian." Zhang Qin Feng said.

"Honestly, funding your research is something simple for me. I saw the results; I'll continue to pay for your study. While you'll be risking your life in here, I'll risk mine outside to get the shards you need."

"But answer me again, is the shards what you need here? Or was it something else?" he continued. The question made everyone speechless for a moment.

'If Duranium Shards is not what we need, then how do we continue with our research?'

'Was our research not for the sake of making something like the shards? Or what are we doing actually?'

'Are we doing the correct thing? What if the starting point of our project was a wrong one?'

It seems the few researchers in the crowd are starting to question what they have been doing so far. And this is precisely his intention of asking them such a question.

Unless everyone knew what they had to do here, it would be pointless for him to keep injecting more funds.

"Boss." soon, Lucian looked enlightened as he raised his hand for permission to speak. There's also a hint of understanding in his gaze as if he found the answer behind Zhang Qin Feng's question.

"Go ahead." Zhang Qin Feng nodded.

"In my own opinion, I think what we need the most right now is the results. Duranium Shards are vital to the research, but that's understandable as we can only harness the required viral composition, DNA, and information from there."

"We might have a problem keeping the cost down for now, but we'll try our best to improve our test results. Right now, the Duranium Crystal might only contain 1/100 of what a shard has. Still, this energy we created is cleaner and purer."

"I'm sure with a little more effort is put into this, they could be beneficial in other industries, such as serum, medical, and ammunition," Lucian answered.

The answer from Lucian made Zhang Qin Feng smile. It seems that as the leading researcher in this facility, he's not only bright but distinguished and flexible. All he took was a few words from Zhang Qin Feng to get the hint of what he was looking for.

And like what Zhang Qin Feng said, injecting funds into this research was not a problem. All he needs is to search for more islands and continents to hunt the zombies until nothing else remains. But if the researchers only knew how to keep taking but not giving out results, the Duranium Shard would eventually stop coming in.

"Alright. The sixteen of you. I want each person to write down a suggestion on what to do with this research project next. The most proposed opinion will be the next focus and followed by one of my own choices." Zhang Qin Feng said.

The paper booklet from him was then taken into their hand as they wrote down what they had in mind.

Soon, everyone was looking at one another to see what was the result of this suggestion ballot. And to everyone's surprise, half of the sixteen researchers here were all into the idea to develop the Variant-Kind of Leech first.

As for the other eight researchers, three suggested increasing the number of cultivating facilities to breed the leeches. Another three mentioned the importance of improving the leeches' productibility.

And on the two remaining suggestions, one had a fascinating comment on the Blood Plant used as the feed for the leeches. While on the final note, this should belong to Lucian as the content in the paper is something only he would think of.

Lucian's suggestion was focusing on what kind of alternative can they use the crystal for instead of thinking about the quantity, quality, and facilities to be built.

And was it not because Zhang Qin Feng wanted to make an example from Lucian, he would have chosen Lucian's suggestion without a second thought.

But since the majority has quite a positive thought in selective breeding, Zhang Qin Feng decided to follow their suggestion and develop the leeches first. Perhaps with a better, more suitable breed, they could increase the quality of the crystals produced when they went through the Crystallization process.

And for the second option, he naturally approved Lucian's suggestion to search for an alternative on what the Duranium Crystals can be used for. If this alternative project could go smoothly, perhaps they could slowly move out from relying on the Duranium Shard and lean towards the manufactured Duranium Crystal.

Zhang Qin Feng then left ten thousand Duranium Shards there before returning to the Vermilion Empress. Taking a quick shower to wash away all the dirt and impurities from him, Zhang Qin Feng changed into a new set of clothing. He soon noticed that Valerian had quietly snuggled into the bed without anything on her.

As a man who could take the hint, Zhang Qin Feng made sure he "boned" her until she had a problem walking back to the Research Facility the following day.
