Since the land contract was signed and the Russians had been dealt with.
In addition, they had an extra 500 billion in their hands.
March, 20X4.
The weather turned warm and the snow gradually melted. The season suitable for field construction had arrived.
Xing Hai Technologies' Desert Transformation Engineering Department had entered a state of full throttle.
Nearly a thousand human engineers, hundreds of construction machines, and tens of thousands of robots began construction from the starting point in the northeast corner of the Takalamakan Desert. They dug tunnels, buried high-strength carbon fibers with a diameter of 3.5 meters, and pieced them together.
The construction team was very efficient. They were divided into small groups and assigned tasks by the computer to carry out modular segmented construction.
It was also because of the hardworking nature of robots.
They could complete the task of laying five kilometers of water pipelines every day.
In addition, there was also a construction team of the same size that had entered Russia. They had set up camp at the southern end of Lake Baikal and were preparing supplies.
When it was April and all the snow on the other side had melted, the other side would also start construction at full throttle. The speed of laying the pipeline would not be too slow.
The two sides added up to ten kilometers a day.
The water pipeline project of less than 1,900 kilometers was expected to be completed within a year.
This speed could be said to be amazing.
But what surprised the majority of netizens was that Xing Hai Technologies had actually dealt with the Russians and bought the water from Lake Baikal.
Netizens were very curious about this question. "How did Xing Hai Technologies do it?"
Some netizens also gave a kind warning. "The Russians' reputation has never been very good. They cut off the oil and gas supply whenever they want. They will not be too polite with Xing Hai Technologies' water. They will definitely cut it off when they want to raise the price."
"Yeah, why would Xing Hai Technologies think of buying water from the Russians? Do we not have enough water in our country? For example, the water from the Yalu Zangbo River. Not only is the quantity sufficient, but it is also closer to us. We don't even need to spend money to buy it. Why not use domestic water? "
But there were also netizens who answered this question.
"Firstly, the amount of water in the upper reaches of the Yalu Zangbo River is not abundant. There is a lot of water in the middle and lower reaches. The amount of water provided by the upper reaches is only 10 to 20 billion cubic meters. It's impossible for Xing Hai Technologies to extract all of it. In addition, the river has a dry season and a flood season. There isn't enough water during the dry season, and it can't be used up during the flood season. During winter, the upper reaches will be frozen for two to three months.
Xing Hai Technologies is indeed the best choice to cooperate with the Russians to pump water from Lake Baikal. Xing Hai Technologies will never have to worry about Lake Baikal drying up. They can pump as much water as they want. This advantage is irreplaceable. "
The water supply of rivers was unstable. The water resources in the central and western provinces of Z country were not sufficient either. It was difficult for the central and western provinces to free up tens of billions of cubic meters of fresh water to manage the water consumption of tens of thousands of square kilometers of desert at the same time.
If the distance was any further, it would not be worth it in terms of cost.
Therefore, the water in Lake Baikal was indeed the best choice.
"It's impossible for the Russians to cut off Xing Hai Technologies' water supply. They might have the guts to do so, but they won't be able to bear the price of doing so. Do they not want the services of the intelligent learning machine anymore? Directly embargoed the virtual factory, and then activated the backdoor to paralyze the program? Don't the Russians want to extract the scientific research results from the 'Science Workshop'? If they give up on these for water that has no value and can't be used up no matter what, I can only say that the Russians have a hole in their brains. "
Some netizens analyzed and concluded that the Russians would not do that.
"That's right, the Russians have a hole in their brains, but it's not that big."
"No country can bear the price of offending Xing Hai Technologies!"
"With Xing Hai Technologies' technology and resources, the problem can be solved in half a year at most after the Russians cut off the water supply. Moreover, it is said that Xing Hai Technologies has mastered a technology to implement large-scale artificial rainfall based on weather changes. It has achieved very good results in Hanxi Province, where there was a severe drought last year. The disadvantage of implementing this technology is that the cost is high. Hundreds of large transport aircraft have to be deployed, burning hundreds of millions of money at once! But in times of emergency, the money still has to be burned.
But after the Russians cut off the water supply, Xing Hai Technologies will immediately cut off the internet and stop all services. Can the Russians hold on for more than half a year?
They have a lot of good cards in their hands. Now, not to mention some companies, even some countries don't dare to offend Xing Hai Technologies and reject their requests. "Some netizens sighed.
"Who said that? Didn't Menggu reject Xing Hai Technologies' request to not allow the water pipeline to pass through their territory? "
"Oh, the stubborn ones have appeared."
April 15th!
The construction team of Xing Hai Technologies at the southern end of Baikal Lake began to lay the water pipeline. They advanced southwest at a speed of five kilometers per day. Soon, they crossed the Russian border and entered the territory of Menggu.
According to the principle of "the shortest route in a straight line," 980 kilometers of the 1,850 kilometers long water pipeline had to pass through the territory of Menggu. They had to "borrow" the route a little.
Of course, Chen Jin also sent someone to Menggu and gave a check of five million dollars to the president of the country. They had reached an agreement with Xing Hai Technologies in the field of education. The president of the country readily allowed the water pipeline to pass through.
But after just a few days, the other party felt that five million dollars was too little. They privately asked for more money, or else the water pipeline would not pass through.
Xing Hai Technologies naturally refused. They did not want to add a single cent.
The other party was annoyed. A ban was issued, and the construction team immediately stopped work.
Chen Jin was even more annoyed. "Why don't you take a look at yourself first? How dare you cheat in front of Xing Hai Technologies? You're courting death! "
Then, a series of actions unfolded …
Less than two weeks passed.
The construction of Xing Hai Technologies' water pipeline resumed. In order to prevent the grassland wolves, they were also protected by the Menggu army.
The netizens were very surprised.
"What happened?"
"First, the corruption of the former president was exposed on the Internet. How much money he received, how many women he slept with, even the fact that his son was the son of the old man next door, and that his daughter was raped by more than a dozen black men abroad were all exposed. Each and every one of these incidents was enough to make a 50-episode TV series … It was simply shocking."
"Then, he was successfully impeached and stepped down. A few days later, he decided to run away with all his assets, but he was stopped by a few soldiers led by the vice president. This vice president was really something. He actually transformed into Rambo and killed more than 20 soldiers of the presidential guard alone. Almost every bullet hit the vitals. He single-handedly boarded the plane, blew up the head of the former president, and seized 800 kilograms of gold and countless amounts of cash."
"This vice president quickly became an anti-corruption hero and was elected as the new president with a large number of votes."
"What's even more surprising is that this new president used to be an extremely unfriendly person. He once made extreme remarks about us. But after he came to power, his attitude changed 180 degrees. He said that the Z nation is the father, and they are the son. Both sides must be friendly …"
"I don't understand. I don't understand this change at all. It's even more exciting than a movie. It's also full of strangeness."
The netizens speculated.
For Chen Jin, he suddenly realized that this world was not that difficult to control.
However, compared to the mastermind behind the scenes, he preferred the warm sunshine.
Unless it was necessary, he would try not to do such things.
