Supreme Golden Eyes - Chapter 458 Yurt

For North Korea, during the period of resisting U.S. aggression and aiding Korea, Huaxia almost gave all of the country to support it. After the end, in order to maintain the regime, it continued to provide various aids. This situation has continued until now.According to foreign media reports, China annually aids North Korea with 50 tons of grain, 100 million tons of oil and 250 million tons of coke.

To resist the U.S. and aid Vietnam, according to the principle of "how much you want, how much you give", China did its best to help Vietnam, from guns and ammunition, food, trucks, medicines to communication equipment, the amount of assistance was as high as 200 billion U.S. dollars, and even sent [-] The army goes to war.Helping them fight wars, build roads, do logistics, and be a strong man for free, and exchanged the blood of the Chinese for their victory.

But what about the result?The Vietnamese monkeys turned around and used the guns sent by the Chinese people as weapons, and the rice donated by the Chinese people as a frame and cover for the guns to shoot and kill the Chinese soldiers!

(Of course, from another perspective, Ling Shaonan seems to be grateful to the Vietnamese for their ingratitude, because if they hadn’t done so, Yu Xinhua’s and Du Shaoyan’s parents would not have died in battle, and Yu Weiguo’s old couple might not be able to make a fight. Orphanage, in that case, maybe he would have frozen to death in the snow at the beginning, instead of growing up under the care of Yu Weiguo and his wife.)

For Albania, within six years, Huaxia gave them 90 billion yuan, which is equivalent to hundreds of billions of dollars now, based on the gold content and purchasing power of the currency at that time.As a result, the factories that spent precious foreign exchange resources to build were heavily in debt, most of the factories stopped production, and the equipment was completely abandoned. The aid fortress was used by them to raise chickens, and the aid trucks were thrown all over the mountains and plains, full of rust!

And for Tanzania, Huaxia built a [-]-kilometer-long railway for them regardless of its limited railway capacity. Reimbursement of all food and lodging expenses by themselves, blasting mountains to clear roads, paving roads and building bridges, all raw materials and construction costs are paid for them by the Huaxia people.

The cost of building this railway has exceeded the limit that the country could bear at that time. The project as a last resort took ten years and cost more than 20 billion. This kind of investment is used in China. Let alone one railway of the same length, five have been taken down!

Whenever he thinks of these things, Ling Shaonan can't help but sigh. He has no intention of evaluating the merits and demerits of the leaders of the country at that time, but he has to take back all the things that were thrown here from Mongolia. This request is not too much, right? ?

…………

The capital, Ulaanbaatar, is full of magic to the Mongols. If they cannot survive by animal husbandry, they will come to Ulaanbaatar to survive.As for those herdsmen who cannot move their families to the cities, [-]% of their usual income goes to the Mongolian Natural Park Committee, and their families do not have enough livestock to sustain themselves, so they set up yurts and wait for tourists who come to travel.

After being heartbroken by the "largest shopping mall in Ulaanbaatar", Ling Shaonan and his group simply called a taxi and came to a yurt area, where they paid a thousand dollars to rent dozens of large yurts .

"Hehe, this is much better than staying in a hotel. If you want me to say that we should just return the hotel and stay here for the time being!" Taking a breath of fresh air, Ling Shaonan's mood gradually improved, and he smiled. He said to the people around him.The hotel they booked before was indeed in a very unsatisfactory situation. The difference between it and the yurt was probably that one was built of bricks and concrete, and the other was not.

"Okay, I'll send someone to fetch our salute!" Xu Yan shrugged and directed several staff members to go back along the way they came from.In fact, when he first came to Mongolia, Lin Dong, a staff member familiar with the situation in Ulaanbaatar, also suggested this way, but Xu Yan felt that it was not formal enough for the inspection team to live in a yurt, so he refused. Now that When Ling Shaonan opened his mouth, he naturally would not have any objections.

In fact, strictly speaking, a yurt is not a tent. It has its own characteristics: the roof is supported by connected wooden grids and wooden poles, and then filled with felt mats as insulation materials. The roof is supported by two pillars. More than 20 square meters, the gate generally faces south and can be exposed to the sun.A set of yurts weighs about one ton and can only be moved by a cart pulled by a few oxen or three or four camels.Tourists can participate in the daily life of herdsmen and build yurts with them.

The price of renting such a yurt for one day is only five dollars. Ling Shaonan and his group of dozens of people rushed in, but they were very happy with the rented Mongolians. One thousand dollars a day for the tenth person is enough, which is very cheap, at least much more cost-effective than the so-called "five-star hotel" they originally booked.

"Mongolia's economic structure is very simple, and the available energy has mainly relied on imports for nearly a century. At the same time, Mongolia's water resources are extremely scarce, and the living water conditions of ordinary people are very poor. On the other hand, there is no good urban drainage system. When the river floods, garbage will accumulate in the city, and the sanitation conditions are extremely poor." Sitting in the largest yurt, Dalia, who has already sorted out the information, said to Ling Shaonan.

Ling Shaonan nodded: "From the place we passed just now, we can see things like those wooden houses. It can be seen that the lives of the people in this place are really not very good."

There are some rich people in Mongolia, otherwise there would not be so many expensive cars on the streets of Ulaanbaatar, and Rolls-Royce and Mercedes-Benz are not very common in China, but at the same time, there is a huge gap between the rich and the poor in Mongolia It is also expanding at an alarming rate, and now Mongolia's economic lifeline is basically in the hands of a few oligarchs.

There is a famous villa street in Bayinbolek on the northern outskirts of Ulaanbaatar, where the villas are various and colorful, all of which are European-style and very beautiful.Those Mongolians who have money and leisure draw their own pictures and design villas, and there are almost no duplicates among the five or six thousand villas in the entire area.

On the villa street that stretches for dozens of kilometers, there are mountains on the east and west sides, forests on the mountains, and roofs of various colors under the blue sky and white clouds, just like entering a fairy tale world. Compared with the struggling poor in slums or grassland yurts, their lives are already heavenly.

According to Lin Dong, even in a country with vast grasslands like Mongolia, competition for grasslands often occurs.Sometimes, nomads have to move their livestock to the reserve again and again.

"When guests come from afar, the herdsmen here are very willing to take the time to receive them, because life on the grassland is boring to them." Lin Dong then introduced to several people: "Their main form of entertainment is Just listening to the radio, most nomads have radios that can receive foreign stations, and they also like to listen to foreign news from guests who come to travel.”

The owner of the yurt where Ling Shaonan and others lived was an older Mongolian family. The owner was very happy to receive an extra one hundred dollar bill from him. Tobacco is passed around. According to Lin Dong's explanation, it used to be a ceremony to welcome guests, but today I am afraid that only the elderly know this ceremony, which means that the guests come with a friendly wish.

Then the old man's family began to hum, which sounded very melodious and melodious, and from Ling Shaonan's perspective, in this high-latitude area, the sky seemed to be very low, living in this kind of place for a long time In the environment, the mood is naturally relatively depressed. Therefore, it is very necessary to growl a few times when there is nothing to do when herding sheep on the vast grassland. Over time, not only a nation on horseback has been raised, but also a nation that can sing A nation that is good at dancing.

Another thing that surprised Ling Shaonan was that the old man's family can speak English, and there is no obstacle in the conversation, and the oral English is very good!

Ling Shaonan chatted with them for a while, and only then did he realize that tourists from Europe and the United States are what Mongolia likes most now.Those people are generous, and they are not bad. They are much better than those rough Russians, and they don't look like businessmen from the mainland of China. They only know how to exploit the surplus value from them, so they are all studying English seriously. , vigorously develop tourism.

The old man said that one of his sons was working with the special commissioner of the UN Right to Food Project, and the income was quite good, but the place where he worked was far from the capital, and it took him a long time to come back. Such a large yurt was left unused , It is simply rented out to tourists as a tourism industry, and the income is relatively satisfactory.

In fact, since Mongolia completed a complete transformation from a planned economy to a market economy ten years ago, most local companies have failed to survive.The old man's son followed the special commissioner of the United Nations Right to Food Project, and his main job was to collect information in large and small towns in Mongolia and report on the hunger situation of the people there.

Now they are doing research in Selenga Province, which is more than 200 kilometers away from the capital and close to the Mongolian-Russian border. There is a place where milk powder is produced, but the interests of the surrounding herdsmen are difficult to protect, because most of the milk comes from nearby Siberia, where cows are healthier and produce more milk.However, domestic enterprises lack competitiveness, and the product price is half as high as that of Siberian milk powder. Therefore, the workers here can only earn a living, and there is no sustainable development.

Because the yurts are moved around, the system in Mongolia is similar to that in Russia. As long as you don’t build fixed houses in the center of the city, if you don’t set up the yurts on the road, no one will come to trouble you.

But many people are taking advantage of the trick, setting up the yurt not far from the road, which can attract more passing tourists, or those truck drivers who need to rest.
