Chapter Two Hundred and Seventy-Five

The assistance in constructing Dongshan Province's water conservancy system is actually just that.

All the really big projects have been divided up by the national companies.

China Water Conservancy and Hydropower Construction Group has 16 engineering bureaus, plus other branches, there are more than 30 branches.

After the water conservancy system assistance construction tasks were assigned to the provinces, basically only scraps were left.

They are all small projects with little oil and water.

It is good to do this kind of project without losing any money.

The construction aid projects for the dry water conservancy system in Dongshan Province are basically all about making money at a loss.

It's different now. Yu Qingyang's reservoir project costs 600 million US dollars, which is converted into more than 4 billion yuan, nearly 5 billion.

This is a truly big project.

What does this mean?

Making money comes second.

The work report of Director Su, which represents the era, is much richer.

"Are there any difficulties that need to be solved by the department?" Director Su asked proactively.

"Hey, leader, speaking of difficulties, there is one. If this project is negotiated, I want Huayu First Construction Group to be the general contractor!

That first-level water conservancy qualification and general contracting company need help from the department to coordinate!" Yu Qingyang said with a smile.

The leader has already asked, so of course you can’t be polite!

"Haha...ha! You kid, you are so rude!

Okay! I happen to be going to the capital in a few days, so I can help you run errands!" Director Su said with a smile.

People are like this. It's annoying to meet someone you don't like, let alone do something for them!

For someone you like, the more you ask him for help, the happier he will be, and it feels like you think highly of him.

Leaders are also human beings, so when Yu Qingyang asked Director Su to help solve the problem, Director Su could only be happy, because it meant that he was actually involved in it, instead of just sitting back and enjoying the results simply because of his leadership status.

"Thank you, leader!" Yu Qingyang quickly thanked him.

“Stop doing these fake maha!

I will help you coordinate the first-level water conservancy and water conservancy general contracting, and you have to rely on you for the rest!" Director Su scolded with a smile.

"We are very satisfied that our leaders can help us secure a first-level water conservancy and water conservancy general contracting enterprise!"

The reason why Director Su said he could help coordinate the first-level water conservancy is because the enterprise qualifications of the water conservancy system are not yet under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development.

The qualifications of water conservancy enterprises are reviewed and approved by the Ministry of Water Resources.



Early the next morning, Yu Qingyang and his party packed their bags and prepared to go into the mountains to survey the terrain.

Although the Butitain Municipal Government provided aerial photos of the upper lake.

But seeing is believing.

It would be better to conduct an on-site inspection to feel more at ease.

It would have been better to wait for the people from the design institute to come over for the on-site inspection.

But time waits for no one. It would take ten days and a half at the earliest for the people from the design institute to arrive in Ajigeria.

Yu Qingyang planned to take people from the technical department to conduct an on-site inspection first.

When it comes to design, Yu Qingyang is as confident as the designers at the design institute!

Moreover, he has twenty years of construction experience and twenty years of advanced concepts.

Yu Qingyang is confident that the construction drawings he designed are more in line with the actual situation and more advanced than the drawings designed by the design institute.

The reason why the Provincial Water Conservancy Design Institute was invited to come over was because of their design qualifications.

Yu Qingyang and three people from the technical department.

Among them are Yaozeng, the chief engineer of the project, Zhao Jianhua, director of the technical department, and another technical backbone.

Sun Jian has five people, plus two hired guides and a translator.

A group of twelve people!

"Yangzi, I'm going too!" Xia Xue ran over carrying a big backpack.

It's been a week, and Xia Xue's sunburned skin has recovered, but is just a little darker than before.

The face reveals a healthy glow.

"The mountain road is not easy to walk on, so don't go there! Be obedient and stay at home and take care of yourself!"

"I'm not a delicate little woman. I will go with you and I will never hold you back!"

"The mountain road environment is complex..."

“It’s because of the complicated environment that I want to go with you!

You people, without medical staff, can't avoid snake and insect bites and accidental injuries in the mountains!

You see, I brought all the medicines I might need with me!

Tourniquet, anti-inflammatory drugs, antidote, and serum!" Xia Xue insisted, patting her big backpack.

Listening to what Xia Xue said, that’s really what happened!

This trip into the mountains will definitely not be possible in a day or two.

It is really necessary to bring a medical professional.

If he had to choose between those two general practitioners and Xia Xue, Yu Qingyang would really choose Xia Xue.

At the very least, Xia Xue's physical strength is much better than those two general practitioners.

"Okay! Get in the car!" Yu Qingyang didn't show any pretense and nodded to Xia Xue.

The security team drove a car, and they sent Yu Qingyang and his group of thirteen people to the foot of the mountain, where cars could not pass.

"Mr. Yu, Amu said, this is a dry stream that only has water in the rainy season.

It will be easier to walk along this stream into the mountain!" The translator translated the guide's words to Yu Qingyang.

"Well, just tell them and let them lead the way!" Yu Qingyang nodded.

Ajigeria is on the edge of the equator. Although most of it is desert, it still has a tropical rainforest environment in such large mountains.

It's damp, dark, and overgrown with bushes.

The creek has much less vegetation than other places due to flash floods during the rainy season every year.

It's just that the river is full of rivers, and some giant pebbles are covered with green moss, so you have to be extra careful when walking.

There is an old saying in China, which is called "Looking up the mountain and running to death."

From the outside of the mountain to the lake in the mountain, the straight-line distance is only twenty or thirty miles.

However, a group of thirteen people walked all morning and only covered one-fifth of the distance.

This is because it is easier to walk at the foot of the mountain.

The reason why we walked so slowly was to take care of the three technicians, Cheng Yaozeng and Zhao Jianhua.

As for Xia Xue, as the only woman in the team, people are impressed.

Carrying similar luggage to them, I didn’t fall behind or feel tired along the way.

Instead, I took a camera and took pictures everywhere.

Compared with the embarrassment of the three technicians, Xia Xue looked very cool, as if she was traveling in the mountains.

Yu Qingyang also kept taking photos along the way.

But he is different from Xia Xue.

Xia Xue takes pictures of beautiful scenery.

What Yu Qingyang photographed was some of the more typical geographical environments of the creek.

The outlet of this creek outside the mountain will be the location of the future artificial lake.

In other words, the future widening and combing of the river will be based on this creek.

Therefore, along the way, Yu Qingyang took pictures of all the parts that needed to be widened and the parts that were in danger of collapse during the rainy season.

When you go back to do the construction drawing design, focus on these parts.

At noon, a group of people came under a huge rock.

The stream ends here and there is no way forward.

"Xiaomi, ask them, what's going on? Why is there no road?

Do they know the way?"

Translator Xiaomi ran to the guide and chattered for a while before coming back to report.

"Mr. Yu, the guide said the road is correct!

The water is left from the boulders. During the rainy season, a small waterfall will be formed here!

So, we have to climb over this boulder!"

Yu Qingyang looked around and saw that there were cliffs all around.

It is impossible to take a detour, we can only climb over the boulders as the guide said.

At this time, the guide had already taken out a rope from their backpacks.

A short wooden stick is tied to the rope.

One of the black guides skillfully threw the rope up the mountain, and the end of the rope tied with a short wooden stick was wrapped around a big tree on the mountain wall.

He pulled it with his hand.

The black guide was as dexterous as a monkey, following the rope and quickly climbing to the top of the boulder.

Another black man shouted something to Xiaomi.

"Mr. Yu, the guide said we can only go forward this way. This is the best and shortest way!"

Climbing along the rope will naturally not be a problem for Sun Jian and other special forces soldiers who came from Black Bailey.

"Zhao Gang, Ouyang, you two go up first!" Sun Jian ordered directly without Yu Qingyang opening his mouth.

According to Sun Jian, they had conducted intensive training in tropical rainforests, and also conducted survival training in virgin forests in the north.

They have experience in such mountains and forests.

Therefore, I had already agreed before entering the mountain that after entering the mountain, I would follow the instructions of the guide and Sun Jian.

Zhao Gang and Ouyang climbed up the boulder along the rope.

Then I found a more stable place, tied the rope, and slid it down.

"Mr. Yu, let's send the backpack up first, and then you go up first and I'll take the back seat!" Sun Jian said to Yu Qingyang.

"Now you are the commander, and we will follow the command in all our actions!" Yu Qingyang smiled and took off his backpack and tied it to the rope.

Zhao Gang and Ouyang got everyone's backpacks up first.

Just started picking up people.

After climbing up to the boulder, Cheng Yaozeng and Zhao Jianhua's faces turned red.

I don’t know if it was because I was strangled with a rope just now, or if I was ashamed.

Yu Qingyang, translator Xiaomi, and Xia Xue all climbed up by themselves along the rope.

Only the two of them were dragged up by everyone using ropes.

"Alas, you are a useless scholar! What a shame!" Cheng Yaozeng adjusted his glasses, shook his head and sighed.

"Haha...ha! Lao Cheng, stop feeling emotional!

A ruler is shorter, an inch is longer!

Take a break and eat something!

Let’s continue on our way!” Yu Qingyang comforted with a smile.

On top of the boulder is a very spacious and clean boulder platform.

Just perfect for everyone to rest.

They ate the military rations they carried with them and drank the pure water they brought.

Yu Qingyang thought to himself while swallowing the military rations hard.

Novels are all lies.

Going into the mountains is not cool or romantic at all.

There was no game for them to have an open-air barbecue.

Everyone walked carefully along the way, avoiding snakes and insects in the tropical rainforest.

There was no time for hunting at all.

Even if you can catch prey, in the humid environment of the tropical rainforest, you can't find dead wood for barbecue.

The only thing that was close to the scene in the novel was that I picked some dates, bananas and other fruits on the road.

Instead of eating military rations and drinking pure water, the two guides cut open the bark of an unknown shrub and lay on it to drink the milky white sap that oozed from the stubble.

I ate dates and bananas found on the road.

"Tell them, we still have a lot of pure water with us and there is no need to drink tree sap!" Yu Qingyang said to Xiaomi.

Xiaomi communicated with the two guides for a while, then came back and said to Yu Qingyang: "Mr. Yu, they said this is the sacred tree given to them by Allah!

They relied on the sacred tree to survive the drought.

The sap of the sacred tree tastes better than water, like milk!

The name of the tree is very strange and difficult to translate, but it looks a bit similar to the milk tree in South America.

They also said that there are not many such sacred trees outside the mountains now!

There are only many more in the mountains!”

Yu Qingyang really wanted to try it, but after thinking about it, his stomach was not as strong as that of his black African brothers, so he decided not to do it.

Just eat the unpalatable military rations and drink pure water!

The gastric function of black Africans is not good.

They dared to lie down in the muddy ditch and drink water, and nothing happened.

If Chinese people dare to do this, they will lose their skin even if they die.

Therefore, in Africa, don’t look at the food and water that black Africans dare to eat and drink, just eat and drink accordingly.

Maybe nothing will happen to others after eating and drinking, but for us eating and having diarrhea is just a trivial matter, and it might even cost us our lives.

I dare not drink the sap, but I can eat a few dates.

Date palm is also called date palm, Persian date, sweet date, and Iraqi date.

Also known as desert bread.

For the Ajigerians, dates are equivalent to rice, wheat, and corn for the Chinese people. They are one of the important rations in Ajigeria.

Dates are not only rich in nutrients, but also high in sugar and taste good.

Again, people's appetites vary from region to region. The Ajigerians can use dates as a staple food, but the Chinese can only use them as dried fruits and snacks.

Even if I eat too much, I can't stand it.

After eating and resting for a while, everyone set off and continued moving forward.

The road is getting harder and harder to walk.

Two guides held machetes and were leading the way.

It is necessary not only to cut down the branches and vines stretching out on both sides of the stream, but also to drive away snakes and insects hiding in the branches and bushes.

After climbing another cliff, the guide announced to stop advancing and camp here.

Here is a huge blue stone beam.

There is no earth covering the stone beam, and it is smooth and flat.

Naturally there are no bushes.

According to Sun Jian, this is an ideal camping site.

Don't worry about mosquitoes hiding in the bushes.

You know, the most terrifying thing in the tropical rain forest is not the beasts, but the various poisonous insects and mosquitoes that cannot be named.

Yu Qingyang has already seen the power of African mosquitoes. The first batch of people coming to Africa has already lost more than ten people.

People's bodies are different. Some people are fine with being bitten by mosquitoes, while others are just bitten by mosquitoes.

If someone is bitten by a mosquito, he or she will suffer from poisoning and allergic reactions.

My arms and legs are so swollen.

Those ten or so people were poisoned after being bitten by mosquitoes, and their condition was quite serious.

He was sent directly to Geographic Glass for treatment and then sent back to China.

The black guide took out a piece of wood from his backpack and lit it, and a pungent smell came out.

Two guides took the smoking wood and smoked it on the stone beam.

I saw many insects crawling out of the cracks in the stone beams that originally looked quite clean, and quickly escaping.

Without the guide’s explanation, you will know that this is a local plant used to repel mosquitoes.

It ended after the two guides smoked and roasted the entire stone beam several times and no more insects appeared.

At this time, Ouyang took out a band of sulfur from his backpack and sprinkled it on the edge of the stone beam.

After they finished their work, everyone started to set up tents.

Prepare dinner!
