Chapter 525: Cold Winter Wine Spring

After a short pause at the station, the convoy continued to depart. Today their destination is Jiuquan.

Speaking of Jiuquan, there are too many allusions. It is said that this is the place where Huo Qu and his subordinates poured wine and drank together.

It is also said that there is a spring in this place, and its water is like wine, so it is named.

Now Jiuquan has also become one of the important towns on the entire Northwest and even the entire Eurasian Land Bridge and the Silk Road.

But for the Chinese people, especially for Han Li, who cares about national defense and loves the military, Jiuquan has another name, or meaning, because this is our country's first satellite launch center and a manned space launch center, and its importance is self-evident.

Han Li and his family will stay overnight in Jiuquan City today, and tomorrow they will visit the manned space launch center and express their condolences to the officers and men of the troops stationed here.

Although the main purpose of their visit is to express their condolences to the vast number of officers and men at the grassroots level, in fact there is another task, that is, to visit and understand the troops as representatives of society, and to show the true face of the troops to society through them as a channel.

And this satellite launch center, which has created countless firsts and miracles, is naturally one of the important destinations of their trip.

Arriving in the city, the group dictated in a military guest house. Looking at the entire urban area, Han Li found that it seems to be related to aerospace, whether it is Dongfeng Primary School, or Aerospace Hotel, or Aerospace Hotel, it can be said that this is a space city.

It may be because the winter is too cold, so after Han Li and the others arrived here, they felt as if the streets were relatively deserted, with no cars and no people.

But it's normal to think about it, because it's so cold outside, and it is said that the temperature here today has reached more than minus 20 degrees, so it's normal for no one to be active on the street.

As for Han Li and the others, when they left Luzhou, the army prepared winter training uniforms, military coats, cotton hats, military boots and other items for them. Originally, everyone thought that these things were redundant and could not be used at all, but who knew that not long after arriving at the military station, they all put on military boots and military coats one by one because of the low temperature.

The same goes for Han Li, although his outdoor hiking shoes keep warm well, but the shoes are too shallow, easy to get into the sand, and leak wind. So it didn't take long for Han Li to change into the high-waisted military boots that the army had prepared for them.

As for the military coat, to be honest, Han Li thinks it's too cumbersome. His own jacket and down jacket already feel good.

But seeing that everyone had changed into a military coat, Han Li couldn't be high, so he took off his red jacket and put on a military coat.

According to this situation, Han Li estimated that it would not be long before everyone might change their pants. It's not because the pants they wear now aren't warm, but because the training pants issued by the army are stronger and more wear-resistant, which is more suitable for the extreme cold conditions of this desert.

For Han Li's arrival, the guest house was obviously prepared. So soon after they arrived, he beckoned them to eat.

Most of the meals are local special dishes, although in order to cater to the tastes of different people, the guest house also prepares staple dishes such as rice and steamed buns. But to my surprise, everyone ate the local noodle soup.

First, this noodle does taste good, and the other is related to this cold weather, and everyone wants to drink some hot soup to warm up their bodies.

After eating, everyone will rest in their rooms. There is no arrangement in the afternoon, and everyone can move around freely. Of course, you can also follow the army cadres and local cadres to visit the Jiuquan City Museum and other facilities.

For places like Jiuquan, it is a rare opportunity for so many celebrities to come here, so they must seize the opportunity to promote this place to the outside world through these celebrities.

For Han Li and others, it is also a very good experience to take this opportunity to visit.

Of course, the reason why everyone is free to choose is mainly because there are still some people in poor health or elderly people in the team. I'm tired from the previous trip, and I really need to take a good rest, after all, there is still a long way to go.

As for another group of military and political song and dance troupes and social literary and artistic figures, they are not so relaxed. Because of the limited time, they had to rush to coordinate with the troops and local authorities to carry out tomorrow's condolence performances.

The reason why we have to negotiate with the local government is that in order to welcome the New Year's Day, the local government has also prepared condolence activities. This time, it happened to coincide with Han Li's condolences, and they simply joined together. This is richer in content, and it also saves a lot of trouble in the troops.

As for Zhao Xi, who was better with Han Li, and some other media reporters, they were quickly invited away by the local authorities. Like celebrities like Han Li, the local government also wants to promote this place through them, so they are very enthusiastic about them.

Originally, Han Li's local arrangements were not interested, and he was ready to go back to his room to rest. But he was forcibly dragged up by Zhao Xi and asked him to accompany him.

In this regard, Han Li was very helpless, and he had been with Zhao Xi for a long time, so the relationship was naturally close. And Zhao Xi's sister Fan, a strong woman, is gradually revealed.

may be because Han Li is too young, saying that he wants Zhao Xi to take special care of him, but he is very concerned about food and shelter and clothing. This kind of care for Han Li feels very warm, but it is also very helpless, who made Zhao Xi's maternal aura too strong.

So, at the request of Zhao Xi, Han Li had no choice but to follow her and a kind of reporter to start wandering around the city. The whole formation is simply to see the fun, the good-looking, the delicious, and the ones that make the place feel proud and proud.

So the whole trip is not boring, but quite interesting.

It's just that this joy didn't last long, because after the visit, Zhao Xi wanted to take the cameraman to shoot an empty mirror of the city's scene, to put it bluntly, a set of promotional videos of the cityscape.

And this video material should be used for the material of the news report, and even the entire documentary material formed later, so Zhao Xi has high requirements for shooting.

And this will make it difficult for Han Li, the cameraman, and the officers of the local propaganda department who accompanied them to toss.

It wasn't until about ten o'clock in the evening that Zhao Xi and the others ended filming. However, Zhao Xi, who finished filming, did not rush back to the guest house, but pulled Han Li and a few people to start shopping with great interest in the night market where some local talents went back, and usually some local specialties.

Han Li, who was originally very dissatisfied with this, chose to forgive Zhao Xi after facing these various delicacies.
