Chapter 1035: Longyou

Qin Tianshan was originally in Jiuyuan, Saibei Province, but Qingyun met him in Longyou.

At Longyou Jincheng Airport, the sun was shining brightly as an airplane slowly landed on the runway and taxied to the parking position.

As the plane door opened, a figure appeared at the gangway. It was Qing Yun.

Emperor Yun, who was about to take two steps down, caught a glimpse of a figure not far to the west of the gangway, and his pupils suddenly shrank.

Qin Tianshan, the second uncle of the Qin family and the helmsman of Dongfang Houpu, was standing not far below the gangway, waiting with a smile on his face.

His appearance surprised Qingyun, and she felt a little flattered.

The Qin family attaches great importance to the order of seniority. Even within the family, it is rare for elders to personally greet younger generations.

The last time Qing Yun followed Qin Tianchuan to Jiuyuan in the northern border, he had never enjoyed such treatment. At that time, Qin Tianshan welcomed them in Jiuyuan City.

And this time in Longyou, Qin Tianshan was actually waiting not far from the plane's gangway. This...

Without time to think about it, Qing Yun hurriedly came to Qin Tianshan in two steps, with a respectful smile on his face, and said repeatedly:

"Second uncle, why did you come here in person? How can this be allowed? How can you make me worthy of you?"

Qin Tianshan rolled his eyes at him, with a hint of joking in his tone:
"Of course you don't deserve it. I'm here to greet your advisor, Professor Chen Yiquan, and other experts.

Get out of the way, you little bastard."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Yun's expression suddenly became somewhat awkward.

Damn it, I expressed the wrong feeling.

Okay, that makes sense. He is indeed not qualified to be picked up by Qin Tianshan in person, but as his elder, Qin Tianshan needs to come and pick up his teacher.

Qing Yun quickly made way and guided Qin Tianshan to meet Chen Yiquan and others.

This was a chartered flight, and in addition to Qing Yun, it also carried experts such as Chen Yiquan, Zhang Huiguo, Chen Weiping, Yan Dazhou, Que Duanlin and their disciples.

They are all core members of the polysilicon sector of Yanhuang Group.

The purpose of this trip to Longyou is to conduct on-site inspection and research on the feasibility of developing the chlor-alkali industrial route to produce polysilicon in Longyou.

Qin Tianshan shook hands with Chen Yiquan and others one by one with a cordial and respectful attitude.

His eyes revealed his respect for these scientific researchers and also showed how much he valued this collaboration.

"Professor Chen, President Zhang... Welcome to Longyou. Your team is our honored guest of Dongfang Houpu. I hope your work and life here will be smooth and happy."

Qin Tianshan's words were full of sincerity.

Chen Yiquan responded with a smile: "Chairman Qin is too polite. We are here this time in the hope of exploring a new path with Dongfang Houpu and contributing to the development of the country."

Led by Qin Tianshan, the group boarded the convoy waiting at the airport and drove off into the distance.

Qin Tianshan sat in the car, looking out the window into the distance, and suddenly turned around and asked Qing Yun:

"Xiaoqing, why didn't Manman come with you? Weren't you two together in Jincheng the day before yesterday?"

Qingyun smiled and explained, "We're back in Huating. Someone has to look after the house. With her here, there won't be any chaos at home."

Qin Tianshan was stunned for a moment, then laughed and patted him on the shoulder: "That's right, you have to protect the house."

The two smiled at each other, and the atmosphere seemed relaxed and warm.

As Qin Manyan's second uncle, Qin Tianshan was also very troubled by this bastard nephew-in-law who dared to start a harem.

He has the status and obligation to lose his temper, but he doesn't want to.

And Qing Yun's words gave him an easy way out.

However, Qin Tianshan felt extremely complicated at this moment.

It had only been a short time, and the little brat who had played welding in front of the four brothers had grown up to the point where he was unwilling to get angry with him.

Shaking his head, Qin Tianshan looked at Qingyun jokingly: "Shiwan and Shiyue were still complaining a few days ago, saying that your brother-in-law is too unreasonable and he rarely visits them in Huating."

Qing Yun could only smile foolishly upon hearing this.

Of course he knew about the twins' complaints about him, but he was indeed too busy to have much time to visit them.

"Relatives should visit each other more often, otherwise once the older generation is gone, you will stop visiting each other?"

I'm not just making small talk. Qin Tianshan, who only has two daughters, is most troubled by the problem of not having heirs.

The four brothers started their business late, and at the beginning they only wanted to improve their lives and had no other ideas.

By the time he built his business empire and started talking about having children, he was already old.

Both themselves and their wives.

He had thought about having a baby outside these days and had made practical efforts, but things did not go as he wished.

I don’t know if it’s because I damaged my health when I was making feed, but it just doesn’t work.

Finding a son-in-law is Qin Tianshan's only way out.

The embarrassing thing is that he is three years older than Qin Tianchuan, but his daughters are three years younger than Qin Manyan.

After looking around the school, Qin Tianshan didn't think that his daughters would be like their sister Qin Manyan, who could lock in their future at the age of 18.

There are too few young people like Qingyun.

In other words, now 53 years old, he may have to face a realistic problem in the future:
He couldn't be like Qin Tianchuan, who couldn't wait for the day when he could hand over the business to his grandson.

At that time, he would have to hand over the power and wealth to his daughter and son-in-law.

It is not impossible.

But after all, I didn't teach my grandson to be so harmonious.

So, the question is, can his daughters keep this family business?
His generation will eventually come to an end.

As for the next generation, it is better to rely on this nephew-in-law than Qin Xiangyu.

It's not that Qin Xiangyu is not good, but Qingyun is more suitable and more harmless. Because Qingyun is engaged in semiconductors, which is different from the basic agriculture and heavy industry of the four brothers.

Unlike Qin Xiangyu who could swallow Dongfeng Houpu very smoothly, Qingyun had to rebuild a new team.

As for my evil niece Qin Manyan or her future children wanting to annex Dongfeng Houpu...

Qin Tianshan felt that, at that point, if Qin Shiwan and Qin Shiyue could not keep them, it would not be impossible to give them to Qin Xiangyu or Qin Manyan.

Anyway, we all have the surname Qin, and the meat is rotten in our own pot.

But now it seems that Qingyun is also a kind and loyal niece-in-law. As long as the relationship is maintained well, this brother-in-law can lend a helping hand if his daughters encounter anything in the future.

Therefore, Qin Tianshan hopes that they can move around more often and cultivate more feelings.

He patted Qingyun's knee, and said with a hint of seriousness, "When you have nothing to do, you should go and see my two daughters and give them some pointers on their studies."

Qingyun agreed casually and didn't take it to heart.

He had no interest in anything like his brother-in-law's glory, so why would he run to those two little devils?

The convoy was speeding on the highway, the scenery outside the window kept receding, Qin Tianshan asked softly,

"Xiaoqing, why Longyou?"

Qing Yun smiled when he heard this and explained in a low voice the reason for this trip.

"Second uncle, Longyou is too valuable..."

Longyou is a very interesting place, as if it has some kind of magic.

Zhuge Wuhou clearly wanted to march north to the Central Plains, so why did he always go to the Longyou area?
Because the strategic value of this place in ancient wars is so high.

By controlling this area, it would be possible to sever the connection between Cao Wei's Guanzhong and Liangzhou, and establish a forward base for further northern expeditions.

In today's map, the name Longyou may no longer appear frequently in news headlines, but its historical afterglow still shines on this ancient land.

Imagine that you are standing on this land carved by time, with thousands of years of dust under your feet and endless mountains and winding ancient roads in front of you.

Longyou, this name carries the weight of history. It is not only a geographical coordinate, but also a cultural symbol.

This is the golden channel of the Silk Road, where Eastern and Western civilizations meet, leaving behind countless legends and stories.

The "Book of Han" once said that Longyou, along with the most prosperous Yangzhou and Chengdu, were among the top three richest cities in the country.

In the tide of economic globalization, the importance of Longyou region is self-evident.

Located in the northwest of China, it is a bridge connecting the Central Plains and the Western Regions, and an important window for China's opening up to the outside world.

The resources here are rich, especially mineral resources. The internal geological environment is complex, the mineralization conditions are excellent, the minerals are abundant and diverse, and it is also the hometown of non-ferrous metals.

But now...

To be honest, Longyou's economy is underdeveloped now.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Longyou also rose for a period of time.

Longyou has the foundation of the Jincheng Manufacturing Bureau which has existed since the late Qing Dynasty. With Jincheng as the center, a series of refineries, rare metal companies, rubber factories, fertilizer plants, etc. were established during the "First Five-Year Plan" period.

A large number of skilled workers and key experts were born here, providing fuel for our country's initial economic construction.

During the Third Front Construction period, the state relocated 16 factories and 4 scientific research institutions to Longyou; in order to ensure the supply of talent, several universities were moved in; and various military industrial enterprises were added on the basis of the original smelting industry.

As a result, Longyou became one of the important bases for national defense industry and scientific research.

But it is also the poorest region in China.

There is a term in economics called resource curse, which means that the richer the natural resources a place has, the more backward its economic development is likely to be.

All cities that prosper because of their natural resources will gradually lose their competitiveness due to the consumption of natural resources and high production costs.

If you just try to be lazy by not having enough resources, you will only end up digging a deeper and deeper hole under you.

Take Jincheng for example. Due to the development of the smelting industry, Jincheng can be said to be the city with the most serious air pollution in the country, or even in the world.

But it is indeed industry that has made Jincheng what it is today.

In fact, not only Jincheng, but also Longyou likes to build a city for one factory.

For example, Jiayuguan City was built because of the Jiuquan Steel Plant;
BY city is also called Copper City;

Jinchang is also known as the Nickel Capital, and its jurisdiction only covers JC City and Yongchang County.

Such a setup is certainly not a problem when these factories are developing well.

But now these industries are on the decline, and it is embarrassing to set up a city just for the factories. Except for Jiuquan which is still slightly famous, Jinchang and Baiyin are already at the bottom of the GDP ranking of Longyou.

The whole province has combined its strength to promote Jincheng. The whole province should have united to develop the economy, but it has divided other counties and cities again and again, which is not conducive to the concentration and rational allocation of resources.

To put it simply, it's too scattered.

This kind of dispersion is not the kind of dispersion that is like the Thirteen Guardians scattering like stars in the sky, but the dispersion of extinction.

It is artificially created bulk.

In China, administrative divisions at the county level are the most stable, while administrative divisions at the provincial level change the most.

Throughout the dynasties, feudal dynasties would change the provincial administrative divisions according to the needs of their rule, and the changes in Longyou were particularly great.

Because the resources here are so abundant.

The complete Longyou includes Saishang Jiangnan, China's Water Tower, and the western part of Saibei Province.

Longyou, which is so rich that it is now in a dumbbell shape, is just a castrated body, but its mineral resources can still support the industrial system of most of the country.

Why was he castrated? This is a historical account between Feng Buyi and Mr. Chang, and Emperor Yun cannot make a judgment on this injustice.

What he values ​​is the resource advantages of "three acids and two alkalis" here.
