Chapter 1628: You Have to Come Even if You Smell It

At the gate of the 69310 Regiment family courtyard, there are several red willows and Tamarix trees. In the courtyard are four rows of bungalows, where the heads of the regiment and headquarters live.

Qiao Hui walked into the family courtyard with his military belt in his hand, and Chief of Staff Qi Shangwu came out of the house.

"Old Qi!" Qiao Hui shouted.

"Regimental Commander Qiao!" Qi Shangwu walked over: "Have you finished your lunch?"

"I've finished." Qiao Hui said: "We are making dumplings at home tonight, come over and have a drink."

Qi Shangwu asked strangely: "The New Year is over, why are you making dumplings at home again?"

Qiao Hui was happy: "I invited Zhou Andong to drink. Even if I don't invite you, you will run over yourself if you smell the dumplings, so I might as well be generous."

Qi Shangwu was stunned: "Are you really classmates with Zhou Andong?"

"Nonsense." Qiao Hui said with dissatisfaction: "If we weren't classmates, would he come to my house for dinner?"

"That's right!" Qi Shangwu nodded with a smile: "Okay, I'll come over in the evening."

Before Qiao Hui could enter the house, he heard the sound of chopping dumpling filling in the house, and the sound of talking.

He pushed open the door and saw his wife chopping meat filling on the cutting board with a kitchen knife.

In addition, there were two other women, one kneading dough and one peeling green onions.

"Sister-in-law, you are here too." Qiao Hui entered the door.

These two women, one is Jin Huicheng's wife Yu Mei, and one is Xue Chen's wife Dai Xingjuan.

Yu Mei said with a smile: "Huang Jing said you invited your classmates to eat dumplings at home. Old Jin and the others will definitely ask and smell it, so we have to make more dumplings. She is too busy alone, so she called us over."

Huang Jing, Qiao Hui's wife, is very beautiful, about 1.7 meters tall, with a standard oval face and short hair, looking very capable.

"Why are you back at this time?"

Qiao Hui entered the room, picked up the tea mug, saw water in it, and drank several mouthfuls in one go.

"I'm going to town in a while. I came back to tell you to make more dumplings. I've already greeted the regimental commander and political commissar, and just bumped into Old Qi, who will also come in the evening."

Dai Xingjuan, who was peeling green onions, turned her head to the side and sneezed.

"This onion stings the eyes."

Huang Jing said: "Sister-in-law, put the onion there, the meat will be chopped soon, I'll peel it in a while."

"Just peel two more." Dai Xingjuan said: "After you finish chopping, adjust the meat filling first, and I'll cut the green onion."

"You guys are busy, I'm leaving." Qiao Hui greeted and turned out of the door.

Huang Jing shouted: "There is no wine at home, remember to buy wine when you come back."

…………………………

In town, Zhou Andong and the others stood on the Sengge Zangbo Bridge, looking at a large forest in the distance, Secretary Kong said.

"This river is the Sengge Zangbo River, known as Sengge Zangbo in Tibetan, originating from the northern glacier lake of Mount Kailash, flowing from south to north and then turning west into India."

"That forest is the result of these ten years. Ngari launched a reforestation plan that year, but it didn't go smoothly. The masses didn't want to plant it, thinking it wouldn't survive. Some masses even said directly, why plant trees? Can't eat or drink, it's better to find a way to plant some vegetables."

"Especially some young villagers who can go out to work, they are even less willing to spend effort on planting trees. Fortunately, at that time, the four major teams of the regional committee were united, and the cadres from top to bottom twisted into a rope to push the afforestation plan."

"To improve the survival rate, we specially invited expert technicians from Qinghai to guide the whole process of transportation and planting. To ensure the survival rate, the sand and stone soil where the trees were planted were replaced with soil washed down from the mountains by rain."

"Then inject nutrient solution into the trees, wrap them in black gauze cotton, tie support rods, build protective covers, and a series of measures, taking care of the trees like raising children."

"After more than ten years of hard work, the results are still very significant. Humidity and frost-free periods have increased, dust and sandstorms have decreased, and there are birds in some places."

Xu Sheng said: "Chairman Zhou, you don't know how big the sandstorms in Ngari were before. It's no exaggeration to say that when going to pick up children on a windy day, parents have to walk in front of the children and wipe the sand off their faces hard to distinguish whether it is their own child."

"Whoever visits relatives and stays for two or three months before coming back, the sand can block the door. To enter the door, you have to drink tea at the neighbor's house first, borrow a shovel to clean up the soil before you can open the door."

"Let's go, let's go over there and see." Secretary Kong said, walking forward: "The construction of Sengge Zangbo accelerated in the early eighties. The town took shape, with four roads extending outward centered on the roundabout."

"The south is the commercial street, the east and west are the locations of various departments of the regional government, and the north is the New Tibet Highway leading to Rutog County and Xinjiang..."

At this time, Sengge Zangbo is not big, and it takes only ten minutes to walk from one end to the other. Finally, Zhou Andong and the others arrived at the commercial street in the south of the town.

Because there are troops stationed in the town, plus the original residents and the floating population within the territory, there are a total of 40,000 people.

Therefore, this so-called commercial street looks quite prosperous.

Secretary Kong pointed to the east of the commercial street: "Chairman Zhou, how about building a filling base on that piece of land?"

"It doesn't matter where it is, the most important thing is where you can hit well water." Zhou Andong said: "The filling base must have at least three deep wells, and one well for backup."

Xu Sheng said with a smile: "Don't look at the low precipitation, but the Sengge Zangbo River does not break its flow in the coldest and driest season. Except for the large amount of ice and snow melting in summer, groundwater recharge accounts for 67%."

"That is to say, the Sengge Zangbo River belongs to a river dominated by groundwater recharge, and the groundwater recharge is relatively stable, so it will not break its flow in the coldest and driest season."

Zhou Andong really didn't know. In his previous life, he came here twice, and he was also very strange at that time.

Why is the water of the Sengge Zangbo River sufficient all year round when there is so little rainfall here.

Now the mystery is solved, it turns out to be the case.

"As long as you can hit well water." Zhou Andong nodded, pointed to the intersection at the top of the commercial street, and opposite was the wilderness.

"I want to build a hotel there."

"No problem!" Secretary Kong looked over and agreed without any hesitation: "How big do you need the land, I will give you how big."

Ngari lacks everything, but it doesn't lack land. It really has as much as you want.

Zhou Andong pondered for a while: "Secretary Kong, the hot springs in Namuru can also be handed over to me for development."

Namuru Village is only more than 70 kilometers away from Sengge Zangbo, right next to the New Tibet Line, just passing by from Lhasa to Sengge Zangbo.

As long as the price is reasonable and the service is in place, there will be no worry about customers in the future.

Secretary Kong's eyes lit up: "Chairman Zhou, the folk village in Suomai, the Zidaburi Temple and Guyujiang Temple, can all be handed over to you for development." ===== CHAPTER 1629 =====
