The strongest peasant city

Chapter 565 Shi Qiu's Help

Seeing the livid faces of Guo Qihua and He Yiqing, they left the Agricultural Science Institute without saying hello.

Zhou Zongnan asked curiously: "Li Xiang, what did you do, didn't you give them rat poison? Look at their faces, how ugly they are!"

Li Xiang sighed and said, "It's about the same! Anyway, Guo Qihua hates me now. But there is no way around it.

This guy wanted my amethyst as soon as he came up. Of course I couldn't give it to him, so I fell out in a few words. "

"Falling out? That's not good! He is the president of the Academy of Sciences, and scientists all over the country have to look at his face..."

Li Xiang smiled confidently: "What's so scary? Now our Institute of Agricultural Sciences is already as strong as him, not to mention we have Longhua, Longquan, Longmu, and Longxi several powerful groups to do it for us. Backing, do you still need to be afraid of him?"

Zhou Zongnan said: "Don't forget, his backing is the whole country!"

Li Xiang looked at him and said, "Mr. Zhou, you are wrong! The country is definitely not the backing of Guo Qihua alone. As long as our research results surpass theirs, the country is also our backing!"

Li Xiang's words shocked Zhou Zongnan's heart, and he understood that it was not unreasonable for Li Xiaogang to let Li Xiang be the director of this agricultural science institute, and his fearlessness alone was enough to do the job.

"Oh, by the way, where is Professor Zhou Keqing?" Li Xiang asked.

Zhou Zongnan frowned and said, "Your memory hasn't been so bad before? Have you forgotten that Zhou Keqing was assigned by you to talk to Shi Qiu about hiring engineering troops to go to the desert to dig artesian wells?"

Li Xiang patted his forehead, remembered, and said with a smile: "Look at me, I'm almost confused by that Guo Qihua.

Shi Qiu is the only general we know in the military, and his friendship with Li Xiaogang seems to be very deep.

This time I went to the desert to drill wells. The amount of work was huge and the working environment was harsh.

Ordinary engineering teams would never be willing to go in for construction, and only the army can rely on their tough style and hard-working spirit to overcome these ubiquitous difficulties.I hope that Zhou Keqing's visit can bring us good news. "

"If you want to conquer the desert, water is the first element! And if you want to have enough water, drilling wells has become the most important thing. If this step is not done well, then we will have difficulties every step of the way! But I think Shi Qiu is very affectionate, and he has just been promoted to admiral, and his power has greatly increased, so he should be able to help us."

Li Xiang nodded worriedly and said, "I hope...

In Shi Qiu's headquarters, Shi Qiu was packing his luggage, then went home to pick up his wife, rushed to the pier of Province S, and took Li Xiaogang's grain transport fleet to Yi Country.

While it was being packed, the guard reported that someone had visited.

Shi Qiu frowned, and came out to meet him. When he saw Zhou Keqing, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and asked, "Are you?"

Zhou Keqing smiled and said, "I'm Zhou Keqing, a scientist in Li Xiaogang's Institute of Agricultural Sciences." Shi Qiu is now completely in love with the house and black, as long as it is related to Li Xiaogang, he is particularly concerned about people or things.

As soon as Zhou Keqing revealed his identity, Shi Qiu's attitude immediately became enthusiastic. He dragged Zhou Keqing into the office and asked the secretary to make the best tea for him.

After taking a few sips of tea, Zhou Keqing said, "Actually...actually, Li Xiaogang asked me to come this time..." "Ah!?" Shi Qiu was taken aback, somewhat incomprehensible.

Seeing Shi Qiu's surprised look, Zhou Keqing said sadly, "It was before that incident. We just came back from the desert." Shi Qiu suddenly realized and nodded, and said, "Is there anything that needs my help? , you don’t hesitate to say, as long as I can help, I will not hesitate to do it even if I am in a daze!”

Zhou Keqing said gratefully: "It's like this. You also know that we went to Taklamakan some time ago, where we found an underground river full of water, but the only way to bring these river water to the surface There is drilling!"

"There is a river underground in Taklamakan?! Is this possible?" Shi Qiu asked in disbelief.

Zhou Keqing smiled lightly and said, "This is the result of Li Xiaogang's personal exploration. Don't you believe him? Just look at this." Zhou Keqing took out a map from his pocket. Judging from the terrain, it should be the Taklamakan Desert.

A blue track is coiled in it like a dragon, and there are many small red dots densely distributed on the track.

"What is this!?" Shi Qiu took the map and asked subconsciously.

Zhou Keqing said softly: "This is the whole picture of the river hidden underground.

"This... This is really amazing! There is such a big river hidden in the most arid and harsh desert in our country. If it didn't come from Li Xiaogang, I would not believe it if I was killed! Then, these little red dots What is it?" Shi Qiu asked, pointing to the little red dots densely covering the underground river.

Zhou Keqing said quietly: "Every little red dot here is a well.

In order to ensure that we don't waste time, after drilling for a long time, but no water can be drilled because of deviation from the river, Li Xiaogang marked the location of each well on purpose.

As long as you follow this blueprint for construction, you will never do wasted work.

Shi Qiu nodded and said, "But... But there are too many wells to be drilled, there are thousands of wells. I have never seen such a huge project."

Zhou Keqing said: "It seems that the project is huge, but in fact it is not.

This underground river is not deep underground, and the desert stratum is loose and soft. If it really needs to be drilled, a [-]-member engineering team can drill a hole in a day.As long as the number of engineering teams is large enough, these thousands of wells will only take a few days. "

Shi Qiu smiled wryly and said: "It's easy to say, don't forget, this is a desert, the climate is harsh, and the desert is unpredictable. Don’t say it’s manual work like drilling a well!”

"Yes, it is precisely because of this consideration that Xiao Li asked me to come to you just now. I hope that the military engineering team can help us. You also know that the hard-working spirit of soldiers is well known. If There are still people who can complete the task, and they are the only ones!"

Zhou Keqing followed Shi Qiu's words.

Shi Qiu smiled and said: "Thank you for thinking of us soldiers so much. Well, since the matter has come to this point, it would be meaningless for me to refuse. In this way, I have an engineering team of hundreds of people. There are about fifteen of them, and I'll keep five just in case. I'll give you the remaining ten."

Zhou Keqing frowned and said, "Isn't there only ten wells too little? Even if one drills one well a day, the ten will have to drill for hundreds of days. The time dragged on for too long. The longer you stay..."

"Old Zhou, I'm just a military region, and I only have this little energy." Shi Qiu said helplessly.

Zhou Keqing thought for a while and said, "So, General Shi, can you use your influence to persuade other major military regions to also send some engineering teams? More people are more powerful!"

"I knew you would say that! It's okay to use my influence, but I have something to say first. Those military regions are not as easy to talk to as I am. They are all a group of masters who have milk and are mothers, and those who have no milk stand aside. Son. If you want to move them, you need not only favors, but also to make them feel sweet!"

Shi Qiu said with a smile.

Zhou Keqing frowned and said, "That's easy! No matter what conditions they have, you can just pass them on to me. I believe that it should not be a problem to gather the strength of several major groups to satisfy them."

"Cheer up! Then it's settled. I will act immediately and call them one by one. No... I will go to them one by one. If I don't take them all down, I will give you a hundred projects." Team, I'm sorry for Li Xiaogang!"

Shi Qiu patted the table excitedly and stood up, saying loudly.

Zhou Keqing's heart relaxed, and he said to Shi Qiu gratefully: "So, on behalf of Li Xiaogang, I thank you first!"

Shi Qiu waved his hands and said in a loud voice: "What are you talking about? Li Xiaogang is not only your boss, but also my brother. It is only natural for an elder brother to help a younger brother. You can go back and watch yourself! However, the climate in this desert It's harsh, the temperature is extremely high, and soldiers are human, so I'm afraid some soldiers won't be able to withstand it, so I ask you to think of ways to do this."

Zhou Keqing smiled and said: "We have thought about this a long time ago.

In the high temperature environment like the desert, it is unrealistic to work during the day, so I suggest that all construction be changed to night.At that time, we will transport a large number of wind turbines to the construction site, and install refrigeration equipment in each tent. During the day, the soldiers hide in the tents to cool off, and come out to work at night. There should be no problem. "

Shi Qiu laughed and said: "You guys are really thoughtful, well, I'll do as you said!"

After sending Zhou Keqing away, Shi Qiu sent his secretary to take his luggage home, and took his boss to the provincial capital pier along the way, while he thought about taking advantage of these two days to meet his old friends. Friends, the heads of the army.

Li Xiaogang asked him to help, but Shi Qiu spared no effort.

Just as he was about to leave, Guo Qihua and He Yiqing broke into his office with unfriendly expressions.

Shi Qiu stared helplessly at the two of them and shouted: "You two, if it wasn't because of me, if you broke in like this, you would have been shot dead!"

He Yiqing waved his hand and said dissatisfied: "Stop talking about this with me, I'm in a bad mood, don't invite me!"

Shi Qiu stared at him blankly, and asked, "What's the matter, did you steal gunpowder from my arsenal and eat it?"

"Gun powder? Do you use explosives?" He Yiqing replied in a low voice, which made Shi Qiu stunned for a long time, and then he couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Hahaha... He Yiqing, why didn't I realize that you are so humorous. Tell me, who gave you such a big stimulus and activated your sense of humor."
