Chapter 464: A Trip to Yinchuan
The largest city next to Wuhai is probably Yinchuan. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Yinchuan is not very far from Wuhai, about 160 kilometers by car, about two hours to get there.
This is the first time Lin Quan and Denise have come to this northwest city.
Speaking of which in the western Xinjiang, there are not a few big cities in the entire northwest, Yinchuan, Lanzhou, Xining several cities are relatively concentrated, all located under the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and then go west is the sparsely populated western Xinjiang, there is only one Urumqi in the western Xinjiang.
Speaking of which, the strategy for the large-scale development of the western region has been put forward for a long time, but this strategy is doomed to be impossible to succeed, and it is also necessary to have conditions for man to win the day, and the natural conditions of the western region make it necessary to pay a huge price if this strategy is to be realized.
First of all, there is the problem of road transportation, the west of the Tengchong Mohe line, the land is vast and sparsely populated, the traffic is very inconvenient, the geographical conditions are very bad, and the excessively scarce population also makes it impossible to make ends meet if you invest in infrastructure here, which is like the Russian Far East.
With a land area of 17 million square kilometers, Russia is the largest country in the world, and from the map, it looks several times larger than China because of its latitude, and during the Soviet era, it was more than 20 million square kilometers, which is even more scary.
When the Soviets stationed millions of troops in northern China, the reason why they brought so much pressure to the Chinese was not only because the Soviet steel torrent itself was too strong a deterrent, but also because of the huge pressure from the map!
A red one, entrenched above your head, its volume is really huge like a bear, anyone who sees this map, the heart is probably a little worried!
As a result, the Celestial Empire had no choice but to gather most of the elite troops to the north to prepare for war, in order to maintain this huge army, the country's finances were simply overwhelmed and almost collapsed, and the reason why Taizong wanted to disarm so much, from more than 6 million to more than 3 million, was because the army was too big, the equipment was too poor, the money was too much, and the burden on the country was too heavy.
And this can also be compared to the conflict between China and Vietnam, when we took turns to transfer troops to the round of battles, so that the troops could see blood and train with war.
My rabbit himself was not affected too much, and he easily let the troops go out for a round of exercise, and by the way, a lot of equipment and ammunition were emptied, but Vietnam in the south was miserable!
When the USSR compared to China, it was only one or two times bigger, but China was not one or two times larger than Vietnam, but dozens of times!
So from 79 to 89 years, Vietnam has opened the nightmare mode, China is making a small fuss, they are all soldiers, there is no day to take a breath, if it were not for the drastic changes in Eastern Europe in the late 80s and early 90s and the collapse of the Soviet Union is not suitable for China to continue military training, it is really hard to say whether Vietnam still exists now.
And because of the great changes at the end of the 80s, the Chinese side only let go of Xiao Yue Yue, and if the two sides continue to fight, it is estimated that someone will profit from the fisherman.
Sometimes the more the land, the better, if there are resources, that's okay, but if there are no resources, the geographical environment is bad, it's very bad!
Speaking of which, there are many places west of the Tengchong Mohe River line, and a few cities on the edge of this line have become the leading cities in the northwest.
Yinchuan, Xining, and Lanzhou are all such beings.
The two came to Yinchuan mainly to purchase some equipment.
These things are rarely sold in Wuhai, not to mention the equipment, and there is a lack of installation team, so he had to come to Yinchuan.
Yinchuan is also a city in the west, and its economy is not developed, at least compared to the eastern and even central cities, Yinchuan's economy and scale are nothing.
If you go inland along China's eastern coastline, the population density is getting lower and the economic development is getting worse.
The population of the magic capital can reach 24 million, Wuhan in the middle can reach 11 million, and Yinchuan is only 2 million, the GDP of the magic capital is as high as 2.4 trillion, and Wuhan's is also more than 1 trillion, but Yinchuan is only 150 billion, this achievement is simply scum compared to other provincial capitals, and there are only three provincial capitals in the country with a lower GDP than Yinchuan.
The main reason for this situation is the problem of resources, the transportation in the coastal areas is convenient, a large amount of capital is rapidly accumulated there, and then it develops rapidly, and the cities in the central part of the city because of the convenient transportation of highways, railways and the Yangtze River roadway, although not as developed as the shipping of the coastal cities, but the traffic conditions are also very good, at least much better than the cities in the west, so they have no problem at all in their development.
However, because the cities in the west are vast and sparsely populated, lack of water resources and have no convenient transportation, it is difficult to retain talents, and even the population cannot be retained, and a large number of people begin to gather in the central and eastern regions, which makes the foundation of the western region shaken, and under the superposition of so many factors, this has caused the situation that the western cities cannot develop.
However, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the industry in Yinchuan is much more complete than that in Wuhai, so if you buy things that you can't buy nearby, you can generally find them.
"What's the price? 2 million? This is too high, too high!"
Lin Quan shook his head after hearing the other party's offer, although 20,000 acres of land sounds like a lot, but this water pipe is not available everywhere, he just makes a rough shelf, this water pipe is only for surface engineering, in fact, he still needs to rely on his own water jade to solve the problem, so if he consumes too much money in this matter, Lin Quan is definitely unwilling.
Generally speaking, the price of drip irrigation equipment is not particularly expensive, about 1000-2000 yuan per acre of land, and it needs to be updated and maintained every year, which also costs a lot of money.
According to this price, Lin Quan's farm will cost more than 10 million, but in fact, this is a high standard of drip irrigation, used for the irrigation of greenhouses and other sites with relatively high requirements, Lin Quan is not so advanced, he has a plan here, the actual amount of work may be less than one-fifth of the normal, the price of 2 million he can't accept, the drip irrigation sprinkler does not need so much, the standard can be cut by more than half!
According to his estimates, the entire system, including procurement and installation, should cost less than 1.5 million, if it exceeds this price, he doesn't want to consider it, if the price exceeds this range, then directly use flood irrigation.
