Chapter 296: Drought

After the unpleasant meeting, the representative of the Mi Lijia left Shanmei directly.

Williams of the International Radio Association and Jason of the IEEE stayed in Dongtang for the time being, and they planned to test the situation of Huawei.

On the other side, we turn our gaze to the Mask area.

The pipeline construction company of Dongyin Water Group is at the construction site of the Badain Jaran Desert in Mongolia.

"Whew! This hellish weather, it's really difficult! Zhu Jianguo, president of Dongyin Water, wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Lao Zhu, why are you here?" Ma Chang, the vice president in charge of the pipeline construction company, ran over sweatingly.

"Take a sip of water." Zhu Jianguo handed Ma Chang a bottle of purified water produced by the water company.

Ma Chang was not polite, and took it directly and drank it all with a grunt.

"Whew! This year, the weather is so abnormal, there has been no rain in North China, Northeast China, and Mongolia for two months. Ma Chang said with a sigh of relief.

Zhu Jianguo said with a heavy expression: "Not only is the drought serious in our country, but there are different degrees of drought in many parts of the world. ”

"So serious?"

"Okay, we can't control the affairs of other countries, let's take care of our own affairs first!"

"That's just as well."

"How's the project going?"

Ma Chang hurriedly opened the holographic bracelet, called up the construction map and said:

"The line from Sangenda to Baiyun Obo has been completed for water supply, and the line from Baiyun Obo to Urad Houqi is now short of three pressurized pumping stations, and it is estimated that the water supply can be completed in one week."

Zhu Jianguo looked at the construction map and nodded.

"The line from Urad Houqi to Alxa Left Banner, the current pipeline is laid to Jilantai, and we have taken multiple sections of simultaneous construction, and it may take until August to complete the whole line."

"The line from Urad Houqi to Ejina Banner is progressing faster, and the water supply may be connected to the whole line by mid-July."

Zhu Jianguo looked at Ma Chang, who was a little peeling from the sun, and patted him on the shoulder sincerely and said, "It's hard work." ”

"It's all about serving the public." Ma Chang smiled with a mouthful of white teeth.

Zhu Jianguo looked at the holographic projection map, and countless blue lines covered the northeast of the country, and these blue lines were the water supply pipelines of Dongyin Water Group.

At present, the water supply network of Dongyin Water Group initially covers all areas of Liaodong Province, Hebei Province, Beiping City, Tianjin City and Shandong Province.

In addition, it also covers the central and eastern parts of Mongolia Province, the southern part of Ji Province, the eastern part of Jin Province, and the northeastern part of Henan Province.

The southern branch of Dongyin Water Group has also built some desalination plants in coastal areas, but has not yet laid water supply pipelines inland.

This line in the Mongolian region, called the northern line, is preparing to enter the Xinjiang region, and it starts from Huludao City in Bohai Bay - Chifeng City - Sangendalai - Sunit Right Banner - Baiyun Obo - Urad Houqi - Ejina Banner - Hami City - Junggar in the east.

The other is the middle line, east from Dongying City - Binzhou City - Dezhou City - Shijiazhuang City - Yangquan City - Taiyuan City - Luliang City - Suide - Jingbian - Dingbian - Ningxia - Wuwei City - Jiayuguan City - Dunhuang - Tarim Basin.

Then down is the south line, east from Rizhao City - Jining City - Heze City - Zhengzhou City - Weinan City - Xi'an City - Baoji City - Tianshui City - Lanzhou City.

These three are trunk lines, and there are many other small branch lines.

Of course, Zhu Jianguo knew that such a big project could not be completed all at once.

"Lao Ma, the output of our desalination plant is enough to supply the entire north, northeast and northwest, but now the water supply pipeline can't keep up, and this year's drought is particularly serious, your burden is very heavy!"

"I promise to lay the water pipeline to the Xinjiang region by the end of this year." Ma Chang patted his chest and said.

"Pay attention to your body, your body is the capital of the revolution, don't collapse your body." Zhu Jianguo said with concern.

"Haha! Rest assured! We don't have to worry about eating and drinking at the construction site, and we don't climb snowy mountains over the grassland. ”

Zhu Jianguo picked up the binoculars and looked at the construction site not far away.

Sweaty workers are working under the scorching sun.

An airship hoisted a huge pipe, and under the command of the workers, the pipe was slowly lowered, and below it was the base that had been poured with foam cement in advance.

These transport airships, galaxy enterprises are the most favorite to use, mainly because they are too convenient, especially in the construction of complex terrain areas, airships can be used as cranes and transporters.

It can also be used as a temporary shelter or as a means of rapid transportation in case of emergency.

Putting down the binoculars, Zhu Jianguo turned his head to Ma Chang and said, "Old Ma, I will discuss with the board of directors to improve the wages of front-line workers, in addition to high temperature subsidies." ”

"Thank you very much." Ma Chang said happily.

"In addition, I will ask the logistics department to equip you with some airships, refrigerators, air conditioners, bathrooms and so on."

"This can be had, I haven't taken a shower in more than a week."

"Okay, I'll go back to the Huludao headquarters first, and call directly if I have something." After Zhu Jianguo finished speaking, he took his assistant and others to leave by airship.

In fact, the drought in China is very serious this time, and if it weren't for the fact that Dongyin Water Group had laid a large number of water supply pipelines to supply a steady stream of fresh water to all parts of the north, there might have been a drought long ago.

At present, the most severe drought situation is in Guanzhong region, western Mongolia region, Hexi Corridor and other places.

In these areas, water pipelines have not yet been laid, and many cities are now having to limit water or exploit groundwater to alleviate the drought.

Erenhot.

It is close to the border of Mobei country, and the border trade is very developed.

Niu University went to see the situation in the sea buckthorn land, and as soon as he returned home, he saw Mobei's eldest brother: "Shaba, why are you here." ”

"Don't mention it, the grass in our pasture is dying." Sabah said with a sad face.

"Is the drought so severe?" Niu University asked in surprise.

"Do you have water here? I drilled three wells and all of them were dry. ”

Niu University thought for a while: "It's true that it hasn't rained recently, but I use tap water here, and I haven't heard of water outages or anything like that." ”

"Tap water? I don't have running water, so I have to dig my own well. ”

"If you have a car, you can bring some water back." Cow University proposed.

"Carrying water back? How much does your water cost?" Sabah hurriedly asked.

"It's like five cents a ton!"

"So cheap?"

Sabah thought about it, and soon he made up his mind to carry water from the Eastern Tang Dynasty back to his farm in Mobei.

After discussing with Niu University, he immediately drove his pickup truck to the repair shop, and then asked the master to modify the rear body.

He himself ran to buy six huge plastic buckets.

After the pickup truck was renovated, it loaded six large buckets, and Sabah loaded six large buckets of water in the home of his brother-in-law Niu University and drove the pickup truck back to Mobei.

The border checkpoint did not embarrass Sabah either, after all, the trucks on which were all fresh water and no contraband or anything like that.

Soon, however, many herders living in Mobei discovered that tap water in Mongolia was very cheap and the supply was unlimited.

They drove big trucks to the Mongolian district to buy tap water and then transport it back.

For this kind of thing, the border checkpoints on both sides can only turn a blind eye, after all, Mobei and Mongolia are still related to each other.

In the end, it was the official of Erenhot who found out about the herdsmen coming to Mobei to transport water, and after discussing it with Dongyin Water Group, it was decided to lay a short section of the water supply pipeline to Mobei.

Of course, this water supply needs to be charged, and Zhu Jianguo will not make a loss-making transaction.
