Chapter 427 Clean up and develop

Lop Nur thousands of miles away.

There are two water transport pipelines entering the Krainian region, the southern line extends from Dunhuang in Gansu Province to Lop Nur, and the other northern line follows the railway line from Mongolia to Hami area.

When the northern line enters the Hami area, it can supply 500 million cubic meters of fresh water to the Hami area every year. This is only the first phase of the project. Next year, the second phase of the project will be completed, and this number will be increased to 1 billion cubic meters per year.

The southern line, because it passes through the densely populated Hexi Corridor, enters the Lop Nur area, only 150 million cubic meters per year.

Similarly, after the second phase of the southern line is completed next year, it will be increased to 650 million cubic meters per year.

The newly established Loulan County is located at the current terminal of the South Line Water Transportation Pipeline. The purpose of establishing Loulan County is not only to utilize water resources, but also to deal with some legacy issues.

Deep in the Lop Nur unmanned area, around the nuclear explosion experimental field, a number of multi-legged mechas were equipped with thick lead-plate armor, working on the ground.

The area with excessive nuclear radiation extends outward for 10 kilometers, and a wall with a height of 50 meters is being built bit by bit, and has been built for a length of 19 kilometers.

The high wall made by this super material is not to block the desert, but to separate the nuclear explosion experimental area from the normal area.

Although the completely detonated nuclear bomb itself has not much radioactive material remaining on the surface, it does not mean there is no.

The reason why the experimental area is isolated and the enrichment and removal of radioactive substances is just in case.

The Academy of Sciences and the Suiren Department have done many simulation calculations and found that the experimental area of ​​Lop Nur may cause radioactive material to spread as the local microclimate changes.

In simulation calculations, as the water supply pipeline continuously transports water into Lop Nur and surrounding areas, it is very likely to increase local precipitation, which will bring Lop Nur back to life and become a lake again.

The emergence of lakes will spread the radioactive substances remaining on the surface according to the characteristics of water flowing to low places, and even pollute the water source.

Therefore, after research and discussion, the Academy of Sciences and the Suiren Department decided to build a wall to close the experimental area, and at the same time, using the Suiren Department's material separation technology to clean up all the radioactive substances remaining on the surface.

In fact, in the core area of ​​the nuclear explosion, the radioactive substances themselves have relatively complete reactions, and there are relatively few remaining radioactive substances. In addition, there has been no nuclear explosion tests for decades, so they can still be reused after treatment.

For example, Hiroshima Nagasaki in Japan and Bikini Island that was bombed dozens of times by the United States. These areas can be completely restored to normal as long as they are properly handled.

According to the plan, the Lop Nur area will be transformed into three areas, closed areas, protected areas and agricultural areas.

The closed area is where the wall is being built now; and the protected area surrounds the closed area; outside the protected area is the agricultural area.

Renovating the Lop Nur area is an inevitable choice, because with the change of climate, it will sooner or later become a lake and oasis, restoring the environment of the ancient times.

If you don’t take the opportunity to deal with those historical issues now, it will be even more troublesome in the future.

The location of Loulan County is located 17 kilometers east of the capital ruins of the ancient Loulan Kingdom. The ruins have been surrounded by a wall.

Western Mining, which is controlled by Blue Star Mining, is establishing a rare element refining center nearby.

A large number of elemental mining vehicles form a fleet, mining rare elements on the deserts and Gobi Deserts of Lop Nur.

In Loulan County, in addition to the integrated buildings and factories under planning and construction, they are five artificial lakes connected together.

The area of ​​the artificial lake is about 45% full of solar panels, which can generate electricity and reduce the evaporation of the lake.

These five artificial lakes surround Loulan County and have improved the local microclimate. On the south side of the artificial lake - Xiaonan Lake, is a large area of ​​grassland being transformed.

This grassland is the industry of Fengmin Agriculture. More than 300 employees are busy here, which are transferred from the development group in Hebei Province.

Fengmin Agriculture has rich experience in desert transformation. Even a harsh no-man's land like Lop Nur, as long as there is sufficient water resources, it can definitely be transformed into an agricultural area.

According to the standard transformation plan, a square box road is usually built first. The side length of the box road is usually 10 kilometers and the internal area is 100 square kilometers.

The boxed road is a simple road paved with super materials, with a width of generally 22 meters. It can be used as a transportation road for agricultural machinery and can also block the invasion of the desert.

At present, Fengmin Agriculture has completed seven standard grids, a total of 700 square kilometers of land transformation in Loulan County.

Four of the standard grids are used as pasture farms, and the remaining three are planned to be used as cotton planting sites next year. This year, we will first plant a batch of pasture, which can consolidate sand and retain water while improving the soil.

The young man with a anti-virus helmet was equipped with a working exoskeleton and laying a spray pipe to facilitate spraying the forage. The forage planted here is alfalfastener, and the seeds have been sown.

His name is Li Tanwen, and he is an ordinary rural person. After graduating from high school, he inherited his family business in his hometown in Chengde. If Fengmin Agriculture had not appeared, he might have been farming in the countryside in a daze, marrying a wife and having children.

But by chance, he participated in the training class of the Suiren Department in Chengde, and then at the beginning of last year, he officially became a member of Fengmin Agriculture, where he was responsible for the planting of a glass greenhouse.

Directly to the beginning of this year, Fengmin Agriculture officially launched the Lop Nur development plan, transferred a group of personnel in Hebei Province, formed a pioneering group, and marched into the Lop Nur area.

Li Tanwen gave all the farmlands at home to his elder brother. He planned to work hard by himself, leave his hometown and leave Hebei Province.

As a province with large populations, Hebei Province has too many populations. Once the population is larger, the per capita land resources become scarce.

Therefore, when Fengmin Agriculture was developing the Northwest, Mongolian District, North Mo and Central Asia, it gave priority to the population drawn from North China and Guanzhong.

It was almost ten months since I arrived in Lop Nur. Li Tanwen thought it would be very difficult at first, but in fact, except for the more difficult it was at the beginning, the situation improved quickly afterwards.

The current technological level of the Suiren Group is naturally not comparable to that of decades ago. The latitude of the Greater Northwest is relatively sufficient. As long as the water resources keep up, the oasis will recover soon.

He laid a set of spray pipes and looked at the endless alfalfasanthemum and feeding corn not far away. He couldn't help but sigh at the power of technology, giving humans the ability to change the world.

The water supply pipeline that penetrates directly from the Hexi Corridor is like a human blood vessel, continuously supplying "liquids of life".

After taking a breath, Li Tanwen took off his anti-virus helmet and felt a hint of dry wind, but it was obviously much wet compared to when he first arrived here.

Suddenly, a large truck transporting minerals drove by the roadside.

Li Tanwen recognized the car at a glance. It should be a transport vehicle that transports special minerals, with special patterns of radioactive substances marked on it. It was probably from the closed area.

Put on the helmet again and continue installing the spray pipe.

Before coming to Lop Nur, they were mentally prepared, but the company's promised houses and subsidies did attract these employees.

In the past, the northwest lacked water resources, so it might have allocated houses in Lop Nur, which made people feel unreliable; but now it is different. With abundant water resources, the northwest will become more livable.

The development of society is the result of the joint promotion of thousands of individuals, and the development of society will in turn affect all aspects of everyone.

Like the interaction force.
