Chapter 250: The Sand City (2)
Suddenly, Ma Wu saw a huge elevated pipeline not far away.
"That pipeline is the source of life in the Hunshandak Sands, one of the water pipelines in the Yellow River project." Liao Qingsong said.
Ma Wu searched for a plan to rebuild the Yellow River on the Star Search.
It can produce 84 billion cubic meters of fresh water per year, which is equivalent to the annual flow of 1.5 Yellow Rivers.
In addition, tens of millions of acres of glass greenhouses in the sandy land of Hunshandak also made him dumbfounded.
Ma Wu carefully observed the glass greenhouse next to the railway, and found that inside the glass greenhouse, it was now lush, and it was obvious that greenhouse cultivation was already running.
After passing through the elevated pipeline, the train enters the city of Sangendarai, the capital of sand.
Different from other big cities, Sangendalai is mainly a food processing, logistics and warehousing, and transportation hub.
The entire Hunshandak agricultural area has a large number of greenhouses, breeding farms, and food processing plants.
Subsidiaries of Fengdu Group and COFCO have blossomed here, as well as a number of local enterprises.
At present, there are about 2.4 million pigs in the Hunshandak agricultural area, as well as beef cattle, dairy cows, goats, sheep, chickens, ducks and geese.
In order to prevent African swine fever or animal infectious diseases such as mad cow disease and avian influenza from entering the agricultural area of Hunshandak.
The management committee of Hunshandak Agricultural Region has established a very strict management system.
All foreign pork, beef and chicken are not allowed to enter the Hunshandak agricultural area, and even relevant transport vehicles are not allowed to pass through.
At the same time, the farm is not allowed to use swill to feed livestock, the reason why swill feeding is not allowed, the main reason is that the virus of African swine fever is easy to remain in the swill, once fed with the swill containing the African swine fever virus, pigs are very likely to be infected with African swine fever.
In addition, any outsiders are not allowed to approach the farm within one kilometer, if it is really a last resort to enter, must be strictly sterilized and disinfected.
In addition, the farm itself has strengthened sterilization, disinfection and cleaning hygiene.
Despite the intensification of African swine fever in China, few outbreaks have been found in the Hunshandak agricultural area and the 28 rural cooperative cities of Fengdu Agriculture.
This is the result of Fengdu Group's strict prevention, and COFCO and other agricultural enterprises are now imitating Fengdu Group to strictly control the production area to avoid the epidemic entering the production area.
For the production area only in and out of strict control, through physical isolation, Fengdu Group has a herd of 23 million pigs, which is now effectively suppressing the soaring price of pork.
As African swine fever (ASF) has intensified in China, Li Jianhua and Wang Zhiqiang have raised the alert level of the aquaculture industry within the consortium to orange alert.
Fortunately, there was not much food trade between Dongdao and the mainland before, and Wang Zhiqiang has asked the port monitoring company of Tianhan Group to conduct comprehensive monitoring of all imported meat and dairy products to prevent African swine fever, mad cow disease, and avian flu from entering Dongdao Province.
So as soon as Ma Wu and his entourage got off the train, they were given an epidemic prevention manual by the staff of Hunshandak Agricultural Zone.
"Is this African swine fever so serious?" Ma Wu felt that it was a bit of a fuss, and there was no African swine fever epidemic in Dongdao now, so he didn't quite understand the seriousness of the situation.
Liao Qingsong knows something: "It's really very serious, there is an African swine fever epidemic in my hometown, and many farmers are wiped out in a whole field." ”
"Isn't the price of pork going to rise?"
"Doesn't think so?" Liao Qingsong is not so sure.
"Hurry up and get in the car!" Song Ping's words interrupted the conversation between the two.
There are two surging lotus electric buses, as a subsidiary of Galaxy Technology, they can only use surging lotus, very products that are not in their own system, otherwise they have to give priority to using their own products.
The destination of the astronaut course is not in the city of Sangendarai, but in a small town about 27 kilometers northwest of Sangundalai.
That's where they went on their trip, the Astronaut Management Department under the Space Development Commission, where there is an astronaut training base.
Of course, the astronaut training base is not limited to Sangenda, there are three other bases: Jiuquan base, Bazhong base, and Zhangzhou base.
In addition, there is more than one astronaut class at United Aerospace University, there are three astronaut classes in Dongdao Province alone, and there are four astronaut classes in the mainland branch, with a total of 210 astronaut reserves.
And the number of astronauts on the side of the Dongtang Space Agency is not a few.
These four astronaut training bases are jointly used by both sides, which is also to run in advance, so as not to get familiar with it when they go to outer space.
Therefore, Ma Wu, Liao Qingsong and others will come to Sangenda for training for about three months, and then transfer to the Jiuquan base for training for three months, followed by the Bazhong base and the Zhangzhou base.
After a distance of 27 kilometers and a well-established road, it took less than half an hour to reach their destination: the Sangendarai astronaut training base.
Team leader Song Ping and instructor Zhou Libin went to go through the registration procedures.
Ma Wu and Liao Qingsong and their entourage were led by the base staff to settle down in the dormitory area.
It's getting late at this time, after all, the days are short and the nights are long in the northern part of the country in January.
Looking at the dormitory area, there were some young people moving, Ma Wu whispered: "Qingsong! It seems that someone has already arrived first. ”
"Maybe it's someone from another campus or the space agency!" Liao Qingsong looked at a group of people not far away and replied.
In the midst of the group of young people, someone suddenly shouted, "Hey! Brothers! Which campus do you have? We are from Chengdu campus. ”
"It turned out to be my own people!"
"We are from the Keelung campus."
"East Island Keelung Campus! I'm from Kaohsiung City. ”
"Come and we'll help you with your luggage."
The students of the Chengdu campus immediately mingled with Ma Wu and Liao Qingsong's Keelung campus.
In particular, the three girls in the Keelung campus were embarrassed by the students of the Chengdu campus.
Obviously, as an astronaut major, there are definitely very few girls, there are 3 girls in the Keelung campus, and there is only 1 girl in the astronaut professional class in their Chengdu campus.
In addition, astronaut girls have another benefit, that is, good health, after all, if they are not healthy, they will not be enrolled.
However, unlike the astronaut students of United Aerospace University, who were in high spirits, there was another group of people who were lining up.
Ma Wu could see at a glance that those people must be astronaut reserves in the space agency system, or pilots who have transferred from the army.
The astronaut reserve of the space agency is clearly distinguished from the student soldiers such as Ma Wu and Liao Qingsong.
Although the astronaut major at United Aerospace University is semi-militarized, the temperament is different from that of the regular one.
With the enthusiastic help of the alumni of the Chengdu campus, Ma Wu, Liao Qingsong and others finally settled down.
At this time, Song Ping, the team leader, and Zhou Libin, the instructor, who had disappeared for more than half an hour, appeared in front of everyone.
"Tonight is your last easy day, the base's reception and dust washing dinner has been prepared, now follow me to the cafeteria." Zhou Libin said with a smile.
Seeing Zhou Libin's expression, everyone's faces suddenly turned bad, obviously they had not been "trained" by each other before.
In the cafeteria of the base, everyone turned their grief and anger into appetite and began to eat and drink, they were stocking up on some fat for the hard training, of course, there were no alcoholic beverages in the base.
