Chapter 110: Preventing Sarin
August passed quickly, and halfway through September, Steiger came once, and Lin Quan reported the money for the purchase of poplar trees to him, he would definitely not pay for this money himself, and the Nigerien government would definitely have to reimburse him, this kind of thing can't be used to, otherwise the other party won't be so easy to talk about in the future, so Lin Quan was also unceremonious.

Steiger didn't say anything about this, but he was very sorry, they didn't have enough saplings to provide at the last moment, so Lin Quan and they had to find a way to buy saplings by themselves, and almost made the plan of 100,000 trees not complete, if this matter is messed up, the impact on himself will be very great, fortunately, Lin Quan completed this task in the end, otherwise they would really be bad this year!
"What kind of tree is this? How is it so straight? ”
Steiger's curiosity was a little curious, he might have seen poplar trees, but he didn't know the poplar trees in the seedling stage, so he asked.
"This is a poplar tree, a very famous tree in our hometown, its vitality is very tenacious, it can be very good against wind and sand, in our side, the government planted this kind of sapling outside some important cities, as a sandproof forest to prevent those yellow sand from blowing into the city!"
Lin Quan didn't hide anything, poplar trees were very ordinary, and they could be found in North Africa, so there was no need for him to hide anything.
"Huh? Anti-sarin? Can it prevent sand and dust? ”
Steiger's eyes lit up, Niger is a desertified country, most of the country is desert, so almost every city is facing a very serious phenomenon of sand and dust, and the impact of sand and dust on the city is very large, including the capital Niamey, many cities, have been suffering from this situation, but the Nigerien government has not had a good way.
At this time, when he heard Lin Quan say that poplar trees could form an anti-sand forest, Steiger's eyes immediately thought of something, so his eyes when he looked at Lin Quan became eager.
"Mr. Lin, you really are my lucky star! Every time I come to you, I get something new! ”
Without saying a word, Steiger rushed up and gave Lin Quan a bear hug, and Lin Quan himself was still confused, and he didn't know what was going on, could it be that Steiger likes men and not women?
Lin Quan suddenly felt the cool breeze swishing through his back door, and subconsciously clamped his legs.
"Lin, you know what? Our capital, Niamey, has a population of more than 1 million people and is also an important agricultural region, with the Niger River running through the city of Niamey, and on both sides of the river, large paddy fields are overgrown with crops, which are the main producers of food in our country. The dust weather not only affects the daily life of millions of people in our capital, but also has a very serious impact on agriculture on both sides of the Niger River, and the annual reduction in production accounts for about 30% of the fields on both banks, you may not know that the food situation in our country is very bad, the more 7,000 villages in the country are short of food, which accounts for about half of the total, and the amount of the national food gap has reached 550,000 tons, accounting for almost 30% of the country's grain production, and some time ago there was a war in the neighboring country of Libya in the northThere are about 200,000 people pouring into our country from Libya, and these people have joined in, which has further increased the food burden of our country, and if the dust situation in Niamey can be controlled, the food shortage will be effectively alleviated! ”
Lin Quan now understood why Steiger's excitement, although this little civil servant has many shortcomings, but he is very patriotic, seeing this kind of problems at home, he will also worry, will also worry, although in his identity, he will never starve, not only he will not, even his family and even relatives will not starve, but Steiger's still thinks of other people, thinks of the miserable life of other compatriots, he has never been abroad, I don't know what the living situation is like abroad, but in Steiger's eyes, No one is hungry, everyone has something to eat, this is a very happy thing, and it is something worth his efforts for.
When Lin Quan first entered Niger, he found that the price of grain here was very expensive, and it was very strange at that time, this is obviously a country where the agricultural population accounts for more than 90% of the total population, why is the domestic grain still so expensive? Could it be that the government is very rich and sets the purchase price of grain very high? But the government of Niger is a small government and obviously does not have that much money.
He never thought that Niger would be short of food, too, a country with a total area of more than seven times that of HN Province, a population of only one-fifth of HN Province, and a population density 35 times lower than that of HN, would be short of food, which is almost unimaginable, you must know that although HN Province is not large in area and has a large population, it is a large grain-producing province in China, and the grain is not only enough for the people in the province to eat, but also has surplus support for other places, and Niger will be short of food, which Lin Quan did not expect.
Lin Quan thought for a while, he almost understood what Steiger's meant, looking at his appearance, didn't he want to ask himself to go to the capital Niamey to help him deal with the anti-sarin matter?
Sure enough, Steiger looked at Lin Quan excitedly and sent him an invitation: "Mr. Lin Quan, winter is coming soon, and the dust weather in Niamey and other places is about to start again, I am here to invite you to come with me to Niamey once, help us establish a sand prevention forest in the north of the city, and stop the sand and dust from continuing to drift into the capital Niamey, and continue to drift into the few cultivated fields and fertile fields in our south!" ”
To go or not to go?
Lin Quan hesitated, although the winter passed to see the sandstorm in Niamey, but there was no way to prevent it, because it was not good to plant trees in winter, it was now September, and the rainy season was about to end in less than a month. If the Nigerien government delays for a while, the whole rainy season will be gone, and then he will have to stare at it and can't do anything, so he doesn't want to go over it now.
But from another point of view, after autumn, there is nothing to do on the farm, and he doesn't need to worry too much about anything, he really has free time to pass once, and now it depends on whether he wants to go or not.
Forget it, just do good deeds! It's still not a good feeling to watch someone else in a country starve!
Lin Quan is not a, but he can't turn a deaf ear to this matter, there is a way that is out of sight, if he doesn't know about this matter, he has no baggage in his heart, but since he has encountered it, it is good to do something, but things cannot be done in vain, and it is inevitable to ask the Niger government for benefits.
"Alright! I'm willing to go with you, but I'll have to wait a while, and I won't go with you until I've arranged everything for the farm!" ”
Steiger was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, it should be, I have to make some preparations after I go back, this matter needs to be reported to my superiors, but if you are ready, I will come to pick you up in person!" ”
Steiger's enthusiasm and pleasure are very high.
