Chapter 830 Refuse kindness
"Don't you want to do some kind of animal protection? You can do it over there. Du Yulin said.
Xiao Peng whistled: "Brother Du, you're not kidding me, are you?"
If nothing else, let's talk about the Hengduan Mountains, which are the longest and widest north-south mountain ranges in China, located in the southeast of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, running through Sichuan and Yunnan.
At present, a large part of the reason why it is difficult to develop the western part of China is because of the Hengduan Mountains. Because it 'traversed' the east-west traffic, China's population and economy were divided by the Hengduan Mountains. Gansu, Sichuan, Guizhou and other provinces west of the Hengduan Mountains have a very good population and economy, but the Qinghai-Tibet Gaoyuan to the east of the Hengduan Mountains is sparsely populated.
During World War II, China's famous 'Hump Route' was to fly over the Hengduan Mountains, where nearly 600 planes were lost or surrounded, and more than 1,600 pilots were killed.
The existence of the Hengduan Mountains can be said to be of great significance to the southwest of China, where the colorful national culture of southwest China was born, and it is precisely because of the Hengduan Mountains that the economy of those areas has always stagnated. It is the result of the collision and extrusion of the Eurasian and Indian Ocean plates, which is why earthquakes occur there frequently.
Because it runs through the north and south, the climate of the Hengduan Mountains is also very different: the climate in the north is quite harsh, mostly vast grasslands, suitable for nomadic life, extremely limited resources make the conquest between various ethnic groups and tribes in history continuous, and the defeated have to give up the resources on the grassland to take refuge in the south; and the rugged and complex terrain of the southern mountains covers a large number of defeated ethnic groups, so since ancient times, the southwest border of China is full of small countries and tribes, engaged in closed farming and herding life. There are insurmountable communication barriers between tribes in various countries, and the availability of resources is very limited, so it is rare for one group to unify the others.
In today's Yunnan-Guizhou region, there are many so-called 'ancient countries', such as Anshun, Bijie, Yelang, Gudian, Dali, Jumachi, Nanzhao, Ziqiγγγγγγ But at that time, the scale of traffic restrictions was not as strong as imagined.
It is said that the country of Dali, which is well-known because of "Tianlong Babu", covers today's Yunnan, Guizhou, southwest Sichuan, as well as Myanmar, Laos, Vietnam and other places, and the population of the capital Yangtho is less than 10,000. Can he fight with anyone?
Basically, it is the kind of people who come from other places and go into the mountains, and the enemy runs outγγγγγγ Therefore, for the Central Plains Dynasty of China, the expedition to the southwest is definitely twice the result with half the effort, so the management method has always been to set up counties and manage counties. Except for the reign of Emperor Cheng of the Western Han Dynasty, when the Yelang Kingdom coerced the surrounding 22 yi to rebel and the Han Dynasty was destroyed by the Western Han Dynasty, the Central Plains tribes almost never had a large-scale war against that side. (This is where the idiom Yoro arrogance comes from.) οΌ
Moreover, in this closed environment, the inconvenient transportation directly hinders the merger and integration of the ethnic groups, so the customs and languages of each tribe develop independently and are different from each other.
Now only Yunnan Province, there are 23 ethnic groups living together, is the province with the largest number of Chinese nationalities, and because of the closure, so the clothing, language, and habits of various ethnic groups have been completely inherited.
This treacherous geographical environment can maintain the peace and stability of one side in wartime, but in peacetime it has caused a lot of obstacles to the flow of people and materials, and to this day, the 'zipline' is still the main way for local residents to cross the river. The saying 'build roads before you get rich' is especially important in today's Hengduan Mountains region.
Take Yunnan, for example, which is the most suitable province for border trade with ASEAN countries. It not only borders Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Myanmar and other countries, but also has access to the Indian Ocean through Myanmar. But among the many neighboring countries bordering it, only Vietnam has the same railway, and if you want to pass through Myanmar through the Indian Ocean, you have to cross the Hengduan Mountains!
Huaxia is recognized as the world's 'infrastructure madness', and it has also hit a nail in the Hengduan Mountains.
If you want to use the waterway here, you basically don't want to think about it, you should have an impression of the Nu River after watching "My Regiment Leader, My Regiment", that is, the water flow in the standard Hengduan Mountains, because of the steep terrain, so the river flow speed of the Hengduan Mountains is extremely fast, and inland waterway shipping is basically a dream.
The Yunnan-Tibet Railway, which is known as the 'Heavenly Road' and one of the five railways into Tibet, is planned to spread diagonally from east to west to the Hengduan Mountains, and the Dazhushan Tunnel has not been broken through for 10 years since the construction started in 08 years, refreshing the history of railway construction in the world! It is the most difficult 'hard bone' in the history of infrastructure construction in China!
A 156-meter-long swallow's nest fault has been dug for 26 months! The handling of various faults, debris flows, high temperatures, high-pressure water sprays, gas leaks, and other dangerous situations and problem research have accounted for almost ninety percent of the project! The construction of the railway, which was originally expected to be opened to traffic in 2014, has been dragged to this day and is scheduled to be completed in 2021!
But even so, we still have to persevere, because the Hengduan Mountains are not connected, and western China will always be a desolate place.
But thanks to the harsh traffic environment here, there are countless national nature reserves there, such as Ailao Mountain National Nature Reserve, Cangshan Erhai National Nature Reserve, Gexigou National Nature Reserve, Bitahai Nature Reserve, Wolong National Nature Reserve, Xishuangbanna Nature Reserve, Hualongshan National Nature Reserve, Tangjiahe National Nature Reserve, and so onγγγγγγ
Du Yulin looked at him with a smile: "Brother Xiao, what am I teasing you? Don't you want to live a quiet life? β
Xiao Peng directly got up and turned on the computer, connected to the big screen, pointed to the map on it and asked Du Yulin: "Brother Du! Take a look for yourself! Is there any special place in the entire Hengduan Mountains? All of them are nature reserves, and they are all national-level! You still say that you are teasing me? Everyone knows that our country is paying attention to environmental protection now, but this is too much, right? I can't imagine how the local people live!"
Du Yulin shrugged: "It's not because of money?"
The management of the national national nature reserve is appropriately subsidized.
Xiao Peng figured this out, and sat back on the sofa with a sigh: "Then aren't you making me happy?"
Du Yulin shook his head: "No, no, no, this is really not to make you happy, you have covered the barren mountains over your horse farm to protect animals by yourself to give the country a new idea." β
Xiao Peng was speechless: "You want to leave animal protection to private individuals? Isn't this a dream? It's just an idle person like me who does this, you think, according to the regulations of our national nature reserves, it is forbidden to carry out all activities such as logging, grazing, hunting, fishing, collecting medicine, reclamation, and mining in nature reserves.
Du Yulin showed a wicked smile: "Didn't you do this?"
"Huh?" Xiao Peng was stunned: "Damn, Brother Du, you are really not kind, I am contracting barren mountains, 60 square kilometers of barren mountains, and I only used 50 million yuan for the right to use it for 45 years, or RMB, if I really listen to you to engage in such a big wild animal, it will cost 500 billion, right?
Du Yulin shook his head violently: "How is it possible, not so much, not so much." β
Xiao Peng grinned: "Brother Du, you are not kind, I am kind enough to help you, you are good, dig out your mind to toss me, if I agree to come down with a hot brain, good guy." It's not enough money for me to fill in. Okay, now that the ALS fund is closed, I don't have to bother with all the hellish stuff like ALS. It's good to be idle like this. β
Du Yulin's old face flushed: "Don't you like those animals?" I'm thinking about you. β
Xiao Peng laughed: "Okay, Brother Du, how much appetite to eat, I'm not so greedy, okay Brother Du, I know what you mean, I really don't need any national rewards, just let me and my family calm down." β
Du Yulin scratched his head: "But you have made such a great contributionγγγγγγ β
Xiao Peng waved his hand and interrupted Du Yulin's words: "Hey, it's just a gesture." If you really don't want to goγγγγγγγ Why don't you give me two pandas to keep and play with?"
"Huh?" Du Yulin was stunned.
Xiao Peng smiled: "Don't you think it's interesting to raise two rolls? Do you have to pay a deposit? β
Du Yulin scratched his head and stared at him with a puzzled look: "You did so many things just to get two pandas?"
"Hey, Brother Du, don't say that, you know? When I was traveling abroad, people kept asking me if I had pandas in every house in China, but I had never even touched a panda except for seeing a panda in the zoo. As you know, none of those people in my family have ever seen pandas, so I'm very satisfied with being able to pet pandas. Xiao Peng said with a grin.
"Well, I know what to do. This requirement is not difficult. Du Yulin said.
"Really?" Xiao Peng's eyes widened, he just mentioned it casually, he didn't expect it to really work.
"Well, I want to ask, aren't you talking about panda adoption?"
The so-called panda adoption right everyone can do, generally there are pandas in zoos can do this, take Kyoto Zoo as an example, donate 500 can get the zoo method of adoption certificate, you can use the certificate to visit their own animals for free, not only pandas, other animals can also.
Zoos that donate more than 1,000 can publish the name of the adopter and adopt the animal in front of the animal house, and donate more than 10,000 yuan to name the animal that is automatically adopted. Expires after one year.
And there are many people who adopt giant pandas, such as Jackie Chan and Zhang Yining, but adopting a giant panda is not to bring the giant panda home, so it is not interesting.
Du Yulin said with a smile: "Brother Xiao, why are you confused? You have your own small animal reserve, and it is not impossible to say that it is a wildlife park, as long as you can prove that you are capable of raising giant pandas, it is not difficult to get two pandas in the name of the reserve." The Modu Zoo has raised five pandas in ten years, isn't there still pandas there?"
"Can it really work?" Xiao Peng was skeptical.
Du Yulin nodded: "It really works! Your current conditions can apply for the "Domestication and Breeding License", of course, there is a premise, you have to ensure the effective source of personnel technology and feed. β
Xiao Peng's face bloomed with a smile: "Brother Du, believe me, as long as you have money, it's not a problem! Come on, come on, I'll let Mengzi make two side dishes, let's have two drinks today!"
