The first thousand one hundred and fifty-six chapters disappeared fairy lake
"It seems that if you don't take risks, you won't get any good things." Han Kongque said with emotion, their generation has never encountered any good things! So when they grow up and want to get ahead, You must ask others to work harder.
"It doesn't matter if you don't want to take risks. As long as you have money, you can still buy good things. I know someone who has a piece of top-quality gold and jade." Qian Mingyuan said with a smile.
Han Kongque was still very interested in the best gold and jade, so after getting the news, he stopped wandering in the Gobi and returned directly to Karamay.
After resting all afternoon, Han Kongque met this person in the evening.
This person had a piece of gold, jade, and light rough stone in her hand, but someone offered it 2.8 million yuan and she refused to sell it.
This gemstone was exhibited at the Hualin Golden Silk Jade Exhibition in November 2013, and the price at that time was 2.8 million.
The owner of Gemstone Light is a middle-aged woman named Zhang Mei, who is 58 years old this year. She said that every summer, she and her friends go to Urho to pick up stones. They go into the Gobi Desert in the morning and come out at night. There are more than ten people walking there. After traveling for kilometers, I didn’t even eat lunch, and I couldn’t even think of being hungry.
Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer good stones, but I still want to try my luck, but it is almost impossible to do so. Now I mostly buy stones.
The rough jade stone in her hand was not found by herself, but bought at a huge price at the Jinsi Jade Expo in August 2014.
At that time, the appearance of this gemstone caused a commotion. Many people gathered in front of the booth to take photos, and many gold and jade enthusiasts were amazed.
In fact, she fell in love with this gemstone when it appeared at the Hualin Golden Silk Jade Exhibition in November 2013. However, the price was very expensive and she was reluctant to part with it.
When she saw the treasure again, she was very excited and determined to buy it no matter what this time.
The gemstone was a fine piece of gold and jade, and it was the largest gemstone she had ever seen. It was representative, so naturally she wanted to buy it even more.
The owner of the baby still recognized her after a year. Seeing that she really liked her, he lowered the price a bit.
She did not want to disclose the specific transaction price. She said that she slept with the stone for three days after buying it. During that time, she carried more than 1 kilogram of stone in her bag wherever she went.
Qian Mingyuan has been in contact with golden silk jade for five years. He saw this gem at the golden silk jade exhibition last year. This gemstone is light yellow, has a fine texture, is transparent, and is more beautiful and charming than the photo.
Such a large gemstone is rare in the country. This is the largest gemstone he has seen so far. At that time, many people offered to buy it, with a price tag of 2.8 million. Finally, Zhang Mei bought it.
Zhang Mei would not sell it if he didn't need money urgently, so Han Peacock was also lucky.
After spending three million to buy this piece of gold and jade, Zhang Mei said to Han Kongque: "The gold and jade light is crystal clear and moist under natural light, as if it is permeable to water. Even people who don't understand stones I will fall in love with you when I meet you, and the person I really like will definitely understand my madness."
Han Peacock looked at the entire piece of gemstone that was as transparent as crystal, with a hint of surprise in his eyes from time to time.
At this time, a sentence naturally popped up in his mind: Only when you truly see the light of a gem can you know its beauty.
"Of course, for such a beautiful thing, no matter how crazy you are," Han Kongque said.
"Ms. Zhang, I heard that in the past year, how many times have you gone deep into Luo Bu Bo?" After the transaction was completed, Qian Mingyuan interrupted unexpectedly.
"Huh?" Han Kongque and Wei Changqing all turned their eyes to Zhang Mei.
Zhang Mei naturally saw the surprise in the eyes of Han Kongque and Wei Changqing, so she smiled and said: "You didn't see it, did you? An old woman like me who is almost sixty still likes to take risks?"
"Do you always look for gem light?" Han Peacock asked.
"Of course," Zhang Mei said, looking at the gem light in Han Kongque's hand: "I once owned such a beautiful gem light. How could I give it up if it wasn't for more, more beautiful gems?"
"So you have a clear goal?" Han Kongque had already understood at this time that Qian Mingyuan may not have simply introduced him to a business, but was interested in cooperating with Zhang Mei to enter Luo Bu Bo.
"What? Mr. Zhang also intends to enter Luo Bu Bo?" Zhang Mei did not have any surprise.
At this time, Qian Mingyuan said: "We can provide logistical support."
"Really? You have to know that in the Gobi, the most difficult thing is to have enough living materials." It was because of this that Zhang Mei came into contact with Han Peacock and Qian Mingyuan. If he hadn't used this to attract Zhang Mei, Han Peacock would have really It is impossible to buy that top-quality gemstone so smoothly.
"There is no way to fake this. As long as you enter the Gobi without enough supplies, the outcome will not be good, so you don't have to be afraid that we will lie to you." Qian Mingyuan said.
"Okay! I hope what you said is true. If so, the supplies will be handed over to you so that we can set off tomorrow." Zhang Mei sold the gem light just to buy supplies, which is the most expensive item now. If they were handed over to Han Kongque, she would naturally not mind taking them with her.
As Qian Mingyuan said, if there are not enough supplies after entering the Gobi, I believe Han Kongque and others know what will happen.
Since it was not an in-depth cooperation, it could only be said to be mutual use, so neither party exchanged any substantive content. They simply talked about where to gather tomorrow and then separated.
The next day, Huangshan drove a large van and followed an off-road convoy.
Everyone knows that there is Luobu Nur on the edge of the Taklimakan Desert, but it has only gradually become known since the Swedish explorer Sven Hedin broke into Luobu Nur in the early 20th century.
In 1980, the famous Chinese scientist Peng Jiamu disappeared during a scientific expedition there; 16 years later, the explorer Yu Chunshun died there again, adding a bit of mystery to Lop Nur.
Luobu Nur is an endless stretch of Gobi Desert with not a single blade of grass or a stream, and the temperature in summer is as high as 70 degrees Celsius.
Not a single bird was seen in the sky of Luobu Nur, and no birds dared to cross it. However, Luobu Nur was not a desert in the past. In the distant past, it was an oasis of life with herds of cattle and horses, surrounded by green forests and clear rivers.
Luo Bu Nur, there are three points of water to the left of the word "Bo"! Open the history books about the Western Regions, and you will be surprised by the lively and prosperous Luo Bu Nur.
"Hanshu. Biography of the Western Regions" records the vast hinterland of the 36 Western Regions countries in Eurasia, and draws an endless green corridor. Walking here in summer is no different from being in the south of the Yangtze River.
In the past, the rich water system of the Tarim Basin nourished thousands of hectares of green land. When Zhang Qian shouldered the great historical mission and left Yangguan in the west, when he set foot on this desolate and bleak land in his imagination, he was stunned by its beauty.
What caught Zhang Qian's eyes was the green and golden waves of wheat everywhere. From then on, Zhang Qian led his people to open up the famous Silk Road.
According to historical records, in the 4th century, the water surface of Luobu Nur exceeded 200,000 square kilometers, and by the 20th century there were still more than 1,000 square kilometers of water.
Sven Hedin took a small boat when he entered Lop Nur in the 1930s. He took the boat and circled the water several times with great interest. He stood on the bow of the boat and looked around, sighing at the beautiful scenery here.
After returning to China, Sven Hedin wrote in his famous book "Eight Years of Exploration in the Heart of Asia": Luo Bu Nur surprised me. Luo Bu Nur is like a fairy lake, and the water surface is like a mirror.
Under the bright sunshine, I sailed by boat, like a fairy. Not far from the boat, several wild ducks were playing on the lake, and fish, gulls and other birds sang happily...
This body of water, praised by Sven Hedin, completely disappeared in the 1970s, and Lop Nur has since become a terrifying place.
Research now shows that the demise of Luobu Nur is directly related to the Tarim River.
The Tarim River has a total length of 1,321 kilometers. It is the largest inland river in China and the second largest in the world. According to the "Water Course of the Western Regions", before the 1920s, the lower reaches of the Tarim River had abundant water, rippling blue waves, thick poplar trees and thick trees on the banks.
.
From 1925 to 1927, under the orders of the Kuomintang government, the Tarim River was diverted to the north and flowed into the Kongque River and merged into Luo and Bu'er. This resulted in drought and water shortage in the lower reaches of the Tarim River. 310 villagers in three villages fled their homes and their farmland was abandoned.
, desertification expansion.
In 1952 after liberation, the course of the Tarim River was changed due to the construction of the Luntai Dam in the middle reaches of the Tarim River. The ecological environment of the lower reaches of the Tarim River improved. Populus euphratica branches sprouted green leaves again, and grass grew on the abandoned farmland, which became pasture.
.
The problem lies in the past 30 years or so. The population on both sides of the Tarim River has surged, and the demand for water has also increased. The expanded cultivated land requires water, and water is needed to mine mineral deposits. Where does the water come from?
People are desperately asking for water from the Tarim River. Over the past few decades, more than 130 reservoirs have been built in the Tarim River Basin, 138 water diversions have been built at will, and more than 400 pumping stations have been built. Some pumping stations pump more than 10,000 cubic meters of water a day.
.
Blindly increasing water use for cultivated land, blindly building reservoirs to intercept water, blindly digging embankments to divert water, and blindly building pumping stations to pump water. The "four blindnesses" were like huge water suckers, and finally drained the Tarim River dry, reducing the length of the Tarim River to less than the 1960s.
The 1,321 kilometers of rivers shrank sharply to less than 1,000 kilometers in 2002, and 320 kilometers of rivers dried up, threatening more than 50,000 acres of cultivated land along the coast.
Without water, Luobu Nur became a dead lake. After Luobu Nur dried up, the surrounding ecological environment changed immediately. All herbaceous plants died. The poplar euphratica forest, the sand control guard, died in tracts. The desert increased by 3 meters per year.
Advancing towards the lake at a speed of 5 meters, Luobu Nur quickly became integrated with the vast Taklimakan Desert.
At this time, Luo Bubo disappeared, and a beautiful fairy lake that was praised by the world just disappeared.
Thousands of years ago, Luo Bu Bo had beautiful lakes and mountains, clear water and blue sky, and many rivers flowed into it. They were all connected together, and they all fell to the ground like beads. It is said that these are the passionate tears of the goddess.
