After plants wither, they are often decomposed and decayed by microorganisms in the soil. Therefore, plant fossils are difficult to obtain and can only be preserved under very few special conditions.
Leaf fossils are of very important research significance to archaeologists. Through research, they can better understand the geological environment and ecological system at that time.
"I was really lucky this time. I was able to dig up a leaf fossil. Compared with dinosaur fossils, the number of leaf fossils is much smaller."
"The place where I am standing now may have been a lake tens of millions of years ago. Only leaves falling where there is water will not decompose quickly!"
"Researchers can analyze the carbon dioxide concentration and weather conditions at that time by obtaining this kind of leaf fossils. However, it is actually of little use for ordinary people to obtain these fossils."
[Lake? Lao Wang, is it possible that where you are standing is the ocean? If it is the ocean, what would it be like to dig out a megalodon? 】
[Lao Wang is really versatile, he can dig and talk, he can do everything. Why don't you give us a full-time job and let others dig it! 】
[Where there is water, there are fish. It would be good to dig out some fish fossils. The dinosaur fossils are so big that it takes a day to dig them out. Many fish fossils are relatively small, so you can see one in one dig!]
[Lao Wang is very efficient and fast, which is fun to watch. It would be better if he works overtime on Saturdays and Sundays, so that he can dig out more fossils! 】
[Let’s take a look at the digging conditions of several other pits. These workers could have dug out a dinosaur fossil if they had been slower for just one day!]
When the audience heard the word lake, they immediately thought of the ocean. Several audience members wanted to see some large beasts in the ocean.
Many movies these days show large creatures from ancient times, and many viewers don’t know that the animals shown in the movies really existed in ancient times, or that they were just made up by the screenwriters.
This time the audience hoped that what Wang Xiaoshan dug was the ocean, so that he would have the opportunity to dig out some ancient marine creatures and take a look.
There are thousands of marine creatures, how can you be so lucky to dig up a large one in one go?
Nowadays, some museums do have large fish such as Megalodon and Dunkleosteus, but only a few museums have them, and many museums only have fossils of small fish.
There was still a little time left and Wang Xiaoshan was not ready to continue. There happened to be viewers who wanted to see how other pits were being dug. He was about to end the show after watching it for the viewers.
Several other pits were dug very deep, but the treasures underneath were not dug out.
The dinosaur fossil discovered by Wang Xiaoshan in the morning has entered the stage of manual excavation, and dinosaur bones can already be seen in some places.
This dinosaur won't be dug out until tomorrow at the earliest. It's impossible to see the whole thing today.
Captain Shi: "Old Wang, what fossil did you dig up?"
Wang Xiaoshan: "I just dug up a leaf fossil."
Captain Shi: "Let me see."
Captain Shi carefully observed the fossils excavated by Wang Xiaoshan and exclaimed: "Old Wang, you are really amazing. You have dug out such rare fossils!"
Other staff who were resting nearby heard that what Wang Xiaoshan dug up were leaf fossils and hurried over.
Some people may not be able to dig out this kind of rare fossil in a lifetime, but Wang Xiaoshan found it within a few days of coming to Barren Mountain.
"Old Wang, you are too fierce!"
"Old Wang, where did you dig it?"
"Does Lao Wang accept apprentices? Just accept us!"
...
The staff surrounding Wang Xiaoshan all wanted him to teach them how to find such awesome fossils, and now he is the idol worshiped by these staff.
Captain Shi saw that the impact of being surrounded by so many people was not good, so he asked everyone to disperse.
Wang Xiaoshan lets the audience see all the pits being dug, and the audience won't give up until they see it.
"I have just shown you all the pits being dug. No treasure can be found in these pits today. If you want to see them, you can only see them next week!"
"The fossils are relatively large, so they won't be transported immediately after being dug up. We will definitely be able to see what the dinosaurs looked like when we come next Monday!"
"If we dig up a particularly large dinosaur in the future, it may take the next day to see what the dinosaur looks like. Everyone must be mentally prepared."
[I really want to know what kind of dinosaur is under the pit tomorrow. The day lilies will be cold by Monday. Can Lao Wang do it in advance? 】
[Just one day later, as long as you can find dinosaur fossils every day, you can guarantee that you can see one every day!]
[If you don’t dig it out after you find it, you are really anxious. Why don’t you dig up some small dinosaurs in the future? This will ensure that they are dug out on the same day!]
[Aren’t you excited by Lao Wang’s many dinosaur fossils? It’s boring to have weekends off on Saturdays and Sundays. Come to Barren Mountain and live broadcast for me. You don’t have to dig, just live broadcast! 】
[Will Lao Wang still take us to dig dinosaurs for a week next week? Or do you want to continue digging in the wild lake? 】
Digging for dinosaurs is different from digging for other treasures. There is nothing you can do if you dig slowly. Who made dinosaurs so big?
Many viewers are more concerned about where Wang Xiaoshan will go to dig for treasure next week. Most viewers still hope that he can continue to dig for fossils in the barren mountains.
The audience was a little tired of watching the baby before, but now they want to watch it in a different way, and the novelty of dinosaurs has not been over yet.
Now the audience is in the most excited stage, wishing that Wang Xiaoshan would stay in the barren mountains digging for fossils every day.
"I won't work overtime on Saturdays and Sundays. I've marked the places that can be dug for the staff. When everyone comes on Monday, they can dig out the dinosaurs in the pit!"
"Next Monday I will go to the reservoir first, and then come to the barren mountain to show everyone the dinosaurs I excavated!"
Now both the reservoir and the barren mountain are in great need of Wang Xiaoshan. It can be said that without him, the work on both sides would be impossible to carry out. Now the work on both sides depends on him.
Wang Xiaoshan's wild lake can wait a little longer. He contracted it for one year and there is still a long time before it expires. Now he has a lot of time to dig other places first.
A few days ago, the village chief even made a special trip to Wang Xiaoshan's home to ask him if he had any difficulties digging the wild lake. If there was someone in the village, they could find a way to help him solve it.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! When the village chief came, he also brought a contract for Yehu. The second year of the contract was for free to Wang Xiaoshan without charging a penny.
Keep him.
Wang Xiaoshan is now a cash cow. Wherever he goes, a large group of people follow him. Moreover, he has also boosted the village's economy. The village has regarded him as a treasure of the village.
Now, as long as Wang Xiaoshan makes a request to the village chief, he will definitely agree to it as long as the village chief can fulfill it. Now other villages are extremely jealous when they see their village getting rich like this.
[Mark more places for dinosaur fossils and ask these workers to dig out more on Saturdays and Sundays. Lao Wang, why don’t they hire more people? There are too few diggers!]
[If hundreds of people come to dig together, the speed will definitely be fast. In the final analysis, there are few people and the speed is slow. If everyone has Lao Wang’s speed, it will be acceptable if there are fewer people! 】
[We can go there on Monday just in time to see if any decent treasures have been dug out of the reservoir. Next time I go there, Lao Wang will give them some advice not to transport the treasures away so quickly!]
[You still need to take a look at the reservoir. You may have dug out some valuable treasures after a week. There must be good things in such a huge reservoir! 】
[Time is always short and I really don’t want to let Lao Wang stop broadcasting. If Lao Wang doesn’t want to chat for a while, it’s Friday today and we’ll have a rest tomorrow!]
As far as the points Wang Xiaoshan has marked now, it is a question whether the staff can dig them all out on Monday. There is no point in marking a few more.
It's a good idea to hire more people, but Wang Xiaoshan can't make the decision. Now that both places are under construction, Director Wei may not have any extra people.
The reservoir has indeed unearthed a lot of good stuff this week. Photos of these treasures have been sent to him by the staff in charge of the reservoir.
It's just that these treasures are relatively small and have been shipped away the same day they were dug up. The audience will not have a chance to see the treasures on Monday.
Wang Xiaoshan usually doesn't have much time to go to the reservoir. It's really difficult for the audience to see any particularly valuable treasures in the reservoir, unless he is at the reservoir every day.
"I'll get off first. I wish everyone a happy weekend!"
After saying that, Wang Xiaoshan took Li Miaomiao away. Originally, he planned to finish early and go home directly in the evening. He wasted some time digging for leaf fossils and couldn't go back today.
Wang Xiaoshan: "We will stay here for one night today, and we will go back tomorrow!"
Li Miaomiao: "Okay, I'll go back to the city tomorrow when I wake up naturally. I want to go back to ventilate the house and pick up some clothes!"
Li Miaomiao doesn't choose a place to sleep at all. She can live anywhere. However, it takes more than three hours to drive from the place where she digs fossils to where she lives, and it's already late at night.
Wang Xiaoshan: "Okay, what would you like to eat later in the evening?"
Li Miaomiao: "Let's go eat skewers. I checked on the Internet that there is a restaurant that makes good skewers. Let's go try it!"
After deciding what to eat, the two of them went home, took a shower and went out.
Today is Friday. There are many people on the street. Many restaurants are full. There are very few restaurants where you don’t have to wait for a table. There is always a shortage of customers in delicious restaurants.
When the two of them drove to the restaurant, there were at least twenty people sitting in front of the restaurant. It was really popular and it was really hard to get a bite of delicious food!
Wang Xiaoshan: "You may have to wait a long time to eat here, so you have to think carefully!"
"I'm going to ask." After saying that, Li Miaomiao went to get a number. First, she checked how many tables there were. If there were fewer tables, it would be OK. If there were more, she would have to change places.
After a while, Li Miaomiao came back with a number: "If you're not hungry, let's wait. We have eight tables in front of us!"
Wang Xiaoshan: "I'm fine, just don't be hungry!"
Li Miaomiao: "I'm not hungry. Let's go and walk around for a while before coming back!"
The stools at the entrance of the hotel were already full, and there was no place for the two of them to sit. They just had something to do, so they went for a walk nearby.
While the two of them were walking around, they also met several workers who were digging fossils in the barren mountains during the day. These workers were all on leave.
Today, a few people happened to have a day off, so I walked around the city and bumped into Wang Xiaoshan and Li Miaomiao.
When these staff members saw Wang Xiaoshan, they first took a group photo with Wang Xiaoshan. During the day, everyone was digging holes and it was dirty, so it didn't look good in the photo. Today, I just happened to take a photo.
Passers-by on the street thought Wang Xiaoshan was some kind of big star. Many people turned back while walking. Passers-by were still very curious.
"Are you Lao Wang?" a middle-aged man asked.
"Well, I am." People named Wang Xiaoshan are usually his fans. He always thought that most of his fans are young people, but he didn't expect that middle-aged uncles also like to watch his live broadcasts.
"Old Wang, I am your fan, can I take a photo with you?" the middle-aged man said excitedly.
"no problem."
Wang Xiaoshan is still very easy-going, and he will satisfy fans' requests for photos.
After taking the photo, the middle-aged man said, "Thank you, thank you!"
This fan was still very rational. After taking the photo, he chatted with Wang Xiaoshan for a few words and then left.
Li Miaomiao: "Your fans are everywhere. I think you will have to wear a mask when going out from now on!"
Wang Xiaoshan: "No, we just meet each other when we meet. It's just a matter of taking photos and signing. It's okay. I'm not afraid of meeting people!"
Li Miaomiao: "Okay, there happens to be a market ahead. Let's go see what fruits are available and buy some to eat on the road tomorrow!"
Wang Xiaoshan: "I haven't finished today yet. I'm just thinking about tomorrow. Now you're not ready to lose weight?"
Li Miaomiao: "You won't get fat if you eat fruit. Just eat less staple food. Didn't you see those celebrities only eat a little fruit and vegetables every day?"
Wang Xiaoshan: "When you get married, you don't need to control your diet. You can eat whatever you want!"
Li Miaomiao: "Who said that I have to control my diet even after I get married? I want to always look beautiful!"
Wang Xiaoshan: "Okay, okay, go buy it quickly, it's almost time to get our order!"
Taking some time to take pictures just now, Li Miaomiao quickly took Wang Xiaoshan to the market. This market is not big, but the fruits are quite fresh.
The two of us bought some apples, oranges, and bananas. Fruits are hard to store in this weather, so they buy them now and eat them now. If you buy too much and don't finish it, they will spoil easily.
Wang Xiaoshan and Li Miaomiao happened to arrive at their table when they returned from shopping. Fortunately, they were fast enough, otherwise they would have passed the table.
When the two of them entered, the restaurant was full and the waiters were clearing the tables. The table turnover rate was too high.
Today the two of us ordered a mandarin duck pot, with spicy meat and non-spicy vegetables. It was already past 8 pm and both of us were starving.
The two of them split up, Wang Xiaoshan went to get the meat, and Li Miaomiao went to get the vegetables. By the time the pot was boiling, the two of them had already returned with two large iron plates full of skewers.
Wang Xiaoshan tasted the food and felt that the skewers in this restaurant were pretty good. No wonder there were so many people. The aroma of the wine was so good that the alley was not afraid of it.
Wang Xiaoshan put the meat into the pot one by one, one piece of meat per skewer. He only started to eat after finishing the whole bowl every time. Otherwise, it would be too unsatisfactory to eat them one by one.
The large iron plate full of beef and mutton was cleared away by the two of them in a short time, but it was too hot to eat skewers. They had just taken a shower in the afternoon, but their backs were already soaked before they finished the meal.
