The rise of nanometers

Tongliao.

Huolingol is the northernmost city in Tongliao and the northernmost point where the Qinhuangdao-Tongliao water pipeline is currently laid.

In fact, the Qinhuangdao-Tongliao line is not just a desalination plant in Qinhuangdao. There are also desalination plants in Suizhong, Huludao, Jinzhou Dayou, and Panjin Zhaoquanhe. These coastal desalination plants are connected in a line and then passed through pipelines. Head north to Tongliao and Chifeng.

The reason why we don’t go from Qinhuangdao to Chifeng is because of terrain restrictions. It is more convenient to go from Tongliao to Chifeng.

This time, the management meeting between the Suiren Department, Beidahuang and COFCO was held in Holingol.

A little further north of Holingol is the northeastern part of the Xilingol League, and about 125 kilometers further north is the southeastern border of Mobei Kingdom.

On the office building of the Holingol Water Distribution Station, everyone held telescopes and looked at the endless prairie in the north.

Li Feiyang turned his head and looked at Yang Huaiwen, the president of COFCO, who had just taken office in October last year, and Wang Shoujiang, the general manager of Beidahuang.

"Both of you, our American friends have long said: Whoever controls food controls all people; whoever controls oil controls all countries; whoever controls currency controls the entire world. .”

Yang Huaiwen's major is international relations, so he naturally knows who said this.

The Beidahuang Group, which was transformed from military reclamation, has had many confrontations with international grain. Wang Shoujiang understands the importance of food, which is also one of the meanings of the existence of the Beidahuang Group.

Yang Huaiwen is still quite cautious: "Mr. Li, ABCD's industrial chain is too comprehensive, and they have deployed a large number of farms, breeding farms, and processing plants around the world. We can only take a defensive stance at the moment."

Even with the blood of a soldier, Wang Shoujiang agreed with Yang Huaiwen's caution.

Although Suiren is tied to chemical fertilizers and pollution control, which restrains some of ABCD's energy and prevents it from being too blatant, with the current relationship between the two parties, ABCD will never give up on defeating China's agricultural system as long as there is an opportunity. Chance.

"So we must have our own basic base. Australia is too far away, and many things are out of control." After Li Feiyang finished speaking, he pointed to the vast prairie in the north:

"Mobei is a suitable target."

"Mobei?" Wang Shoujiang frowned.

For this place forgotten by the world, due to many historical reasons, this is the pain in the hearts of all Chinese people.

Moreover, this place is very hostile to China. If he wants to invest, Wang Shoujiang really needs to think about it carefully.

Li Feiyang smiled and said: "They have no choice. The international ore price is in our hands, unless Lucia is willing to take over their mines. But now Mao Xiong can't even eat enough. He has to live on the money we buy from the mines. How can we take over their mines?" of minerals.”

"That's true, but..." Yang Huaiwen still had doubts.

Li Feiyang interrupted him: "This water pipeline is the route into Mobei. If you have money, you can make a fool of yourself. If you don't give them any money, then they deserve to be treated as rubbish."

Obviously the Suiren Department has taken a fancy to the land of Mobei.

Wang Shoujiang thought for a while: "If we use water supply support and money to open the way, it is possible to open their door."

In fact, the Suiren Clan's plan to move north contains evil intentions. This pure white water is poisonous.

For Mobei, where most of the land is desert and Gobi Desert, once it is fully connected to the water pipeline of the Sui people, it will obtain a large amount of grassland, cultivated land, and a large amount of income.

The problem is that the basis of all this is a steady stream of water resources. If the supply of water resources is lost, it may be restored to its original shape in less than a year.

If they seize Mobei's water resources, they seize the other party's food. Coupled with the control of mining and industrial products, they don't have to accept it. Then they can just fend for themselves in the desolate Gobi Desert.

It is easy for a person to live in luxury, but it is difficult to live in simplicity.

When they are successfully raised as pigs, they basically lose the ability to resist.

The Suiren Clan has cooperated with Qin Lizhang and selected a dozen agents in the Mobei area, preparing to support them in becoming comprador businessmen.

Gradually, in the Gobi Desert in the southern desert of Mobei, grass, oil crops, cotton, etc. were planted in enclosed areas.

Mobei has an area of ​​1.56 million square kilometers, of which the Gobi Desert covers over one million square kilometers, accounting for about two-thirds of the total area of ​​Mobei.

Such a huge area, even if only half of it can be developed, covers 500,000 square kilometers, which is about the same size as the total area of ​​Shu Province.

Moreover, many places have open plains and plateau terrain, which are suitable for large-scale mechanized farming.

Xiao Yuan, the president of Fengmin Agriculture, took out a map, which marked the southern region of Mobei. The enclosed areas were semi-desert, Gobi Desert, and desert.

In Mobei, which has a population of just over three million, the entry of a large number of industrial, mining and agricultural companies can basically absorb all of their labor force.

If we can go further and take over their sanitation, water and electricity, there will be basically no chance of a comeback.

However, this kind of economic penetration needs to be done step by step, first through water pipelines, into their water market and agriculture, and then into power generation through mining.

Therefore, it is necessary to cultivate suitable comprador merchants and ensure that they have countermeasures to deal a fatal blow to the opponent.

The Suiren Department, together with COFCO and Beidahuang, plan to raise pigs, not wolves, so they must not be merciful where they should start.

Yang Huaiwen and Wang Shoujiang did not agree to the Suiren Department's plan. After all, this kind of thing was not something they could decide and needed to be approved by the higher-ups before it could proceed.

Although they have this intention, they cannot easily agree.

After talking about Mobei's plan, everyone started discussing the westward expansion plan of the water pipeline.

Wang Shoujiang talked about the progress of Beidahuang Group: "At present, our company has contracted 67 million acres of land in various sandy areas in Mongolia. The transformation plan can start at any time as long as the water pipes are in place."

"We COFCO have also contracted 75 million acres. The desertification area in Mongolia is 612 million acres. Together with other semi-desert areas, the total potential is 914 million acres. The potential is huge!" At this point, Yang Huaiwen couldn't help but sigh. .

Li Feiyang smiled and said: "It's almost time. The westward branch of the Qintong Line has now reached Keshiketeng Banner in Chifeng. It is expected to reach Sunit Left Banner in the middle of this year and near Baiyun Obo by the end of the year."

"So fast?" Yang Huaiwen was a little surprised.

Li Feiyang explained: "We use multi-stage construction, so the speed is naturally very fast."

After speaking, he took out the internal project progress chart of the Blue Era and introduced the recent progress. The laying of water pipelines in the Mongolian area is actually faster than that in Jin and Qin provinces. After all, the terrain in the Mongolian area is flat. There is no dense population and is suitable for rapid construction.

Wang Shoujiang is very satisfied with this progress: "We will arrange a branch office in Hunshandake Sand Land as soon as possible to start arranging sand land transformation."

Fengmin Agriculture itself has actually enclosed 71.9 million acres of sandy land.

Although the three major agricultural groups are interested in developing international supply chains, they pay more attention to their domestic fundamentals.

After all, there are risks in foreign supply chains. Developing agriculture domestically can also provide a large number of jobs. Therefore, transforming sandy deserts is one of the core businesses of the three major agricultural groups.
