Suddenly Ma Wu saw a huge elevated pipeline not far away.
"That pipeline is the source of life in the Hunshandake Sandy Land, and it is one of the water pipelines in the Yellow River Reconstruction Plan," Liao Qingsong said.
Ma Wu searched for the plan to rebuild the Yellow River on Zhongxing Search.
It can produce 84 billion cubic meters of fresh water annually, equivalent to the annual flow of 1.5 Yellow Rivers. These data are all shocking.
In addition, the tens of millions of acres of glass greenhouses in Hunshandake Sand Land also left him stunned.
Ma Wu carefully observed the glass greenhouse next to the railway, and found that the glass greenhouse was now lush and green. It was obvious that the greenhouse cultivation was already in operation.
After the train passed through the elevated tube, it entered the urban area of Sangenda, the capital of sand.
With a different scenery from other big cities, Sangendalai is mainly a food processing, logistics and warehousing, and transportation hub center.
The entire Hunshandake Agricultural Zone has a large number of greenhouses, breeding farms, and food processing plants.
Subsidiaries of Fengdu Group and COFCO Group are everywhere here, and there are also quite a few local companies.
Currently, there are about 2.4 million pigs in Hunshandake Agricultural Zone, as well as beef cattle, dairy cows, goats, sheep, chickens, ducks, geese, etc.
In order to prevent livestock infectious diseases such as African swine fever, mad cow disease, and avian influenza from entering the Hunshandake agricultural area.
The management committee of Hunshandake Agricultural Zone has established a very strict management system.
All imported pork, beef, and chicken are not allowed to enter the Hunshandake Agricultural Zone, and even related transportation vehicles are not allowed to pass through.
At the same time, farms are not allowed to use swill to feed livestock. The reason why they are not allowed to feed swill is that the African swine fever virus easily remains in the swill. Once pigs are fed swill containing the African swine fever virus, the pigs are very likely to be infected with African swine fever.
Swine fever.
In addition, no outsiders are allowed to come within one kilometer of the farm. If they really have to enter, they must be strictly sterilized and disinfected.
In addition, the farm itself has strengthened sterilization, disinfection and cleaning.
Although African swine fever is becoming more and more severe in China, the Hunshandake Agricultural Zone and the 28 rural cooperative cities of Fengdu Agriculture have so far rarely experienced epidemics.
This is the result of Fengdu Group's strict prevention and control. Agricultural companies such as COFCO are now imitating Fengdu Group and strictly controlling production areas to prevent the epidemic from entering production areas.
With strict controls on entry and exit from the production areas and physical isolation, Fengdu Group's 2.3 million pigs have now effectively suppressed the surge in pork prices.
As African swine fever intensifies in China, Li Jianhua and Wang Zhiqiang have raised the alert level of the breeding industry within the consortium to orange alert.
Fortunately, Dongdao has not had much food trade with the mainland before. Wang Zhiqiang has asked the Tianhan Group's port monitoring company to conduct comprehensive monitoring of all imported meat products and dairy products to prevent African swine fever, mad cow disease, and avian influenza from entering Dongdao Province.
So as soon as Ma Wu and his party got off the train, the staff of Hunshandake Agricultural Zone gave them an epidemic prevention manual.
"Is this African swine fever so serious?" Ma Wu felt that it was a bit of a fuss. There is no African swine fever epidemic in East Island, so he doesn't quite understand the seriousness of the situation.
Liao Qingsong knew a little bit: "It's really serious. There was an African swine fever epidemic in my hometown. Many farmers had their entire farms wiped out."
“Wouldn’t the price of pork be going up?”
"It seems not, right?" Liao Qingsong was not sure either.
"Hurry up and get in the car!" Song Ping interrupted their conversation.
There are two more Pengpai Lotus electric buses. As a subsidiary of Galaxy Technology, they can only use Pengpai Lotus, especially products that are not in their own system, otherwise they have to give priority to their own products.
The destination of the astronaut professional class is not within the urban area of Sangendalai, but to a small town about 27 kilometers away from the urban area of Sangendalai in the northwest direction.
That was the destination of their trip, the Astronaut Management Department under the Space Development Council, which has an astronaut training base here.
Of course, the astronaut training base is not just Sangenda Lai, there are three others: Jiuquan Base, Bazhong Base, and Zhangzhou Base.
In addition, United Universe University has more than one astronaut professional class. In Dongdao Province alone, there are three astronaut professional classes, and there are four astronaut professional classes in the mainland branch. These astronaut reserves have a total of 210 people.
The number of astronauts from the Dongtang Space Agency is also quite large.
These four astronaut training bases are used jointly by both parties. This is also for the purpose of running in in advance to avoid getting familiar with them again when they go to outer space.
Therefore, Ma Wu, Liao Qingsong and others will come to Sanggenda for training for about three months, and then transfer to Jiuquan base for three months of training, followed by Bazhong base and Zhangzhou base.
After traveling on a well-established highway for a distance of 27 kilometers, they arrived at their destination: the Sangendalai Astronaut Training Base in less than half an hour.
Team leader Song Ping and instructor Zhou Libin went to complete the registration procedures.
Under the leadership of the base staff, Ma Wu and Liao Qingsong settled in the dormitory area.
It is getting late at this time, after all, the days are short and the nights are long in the northern region in January.
Seeing some young people moving around in the dormitory area, Ma Wu whispered: "Qingsong! It seems that someone has arrived first."
"Maybe they are people from other campuses or the space agency!" Liao Qingsong replied after looking at a group of people not far away.
Among the group of young people, someone suddenly shouted: "Hey! Brother! Which campus are you from? We are from the Chengdu campus."
“It turns out he’s one of our own!”
"We are from the Keelung campus."
"Dongdao Keelung Campus! I'm from Kaohsiung City."
"Come here and let us help you with your luggage."
Students at the Chengdu campus immediately became involved with Ma Wu and Liao Qingsong’s Keelung campus.
In particular, the three girls from the Keelung campus were embarrassed when being greeted by students from the Chengdu campus.
Obviously, as an astronaut major, there are very few girls. There are three girls in the Keelung campus, and there is only one girl in the astronaut major class at their Chengdu campus.
In addition, astronaut girls have another advantage, that is, they are healthy. After all, if they are not healthy, they will not be admitted.
However, unlike the excited astronaut students from the United Universe University, there was another group of people lining up.
Ma Wu could tell at a glance that those people must be astronaut reserves in the space agency system, or pilots who had transferred from the army.
There is a clear distinction between the space agency's astronaut reserves and student soldiers like Ma Wu and Liao Qingsong.
Although the astronaut major at United Universe University is managed in a semi-military manner, the temperament is different compared to the regular one.
With the enthusiastic help of Chengdu campus alumni, Ma Wu, Liao Qingsong and others finally settled in.
At this time, team leader Song Ping and instructor Zhou Libin, who had disappeared for more than half an hour, appeared in front of everyone.
"Tonight is your last relaxing day. The base's dinner has been prepared. Now follow me to the cafeteria." Zhou Libin said with a smile.
Seeing Zhou Libin's expression, everyone suddenly became sad. It was obvious that they had been "trained" by the other party before.
In the canteen of the base, everyone turned their grief and anger into appetite and began to eat and drink heavily. They were stocking up on fat meat for the hard training. Of course, there were no alcoholic beverages in the base.
