Chapter 185
The car was moving forward in the bumpy state. Chu Qian asked the old man curiously: "Then you have lived here for more than 40 years. Why do you still have to go to Shannan when you reach this age?"
As soon as he asked this, the old man showed a happy smile on his face.
"Xiao Chu, have you heard about the relocation of Shuanghu Lake?"
Chu Qian nodded. She had heard of this. The so-called large-scale relocation started a few years ago. The herdsmen in Shuanghu Pastoral Area began to migrate out in an orderly manner. Many herdsmen migrated to the south of the mountain, and some herdsmen migrated to the hot spring town.
There is now a new village in Wenquan Town that lives in all the herdsmen who moved from Shuanghu Lake, with 700 people living in it.
"We moved north from the south to survive and to find pastures for cattle and sheep. The migration at that time was a last resort. Although we moved from the south to Shuanghu and gained a foothold in Shuanghu, Shuanghu is Shuanghu after all, and it is a forbidden area for life. It is really not suitable for human habitation." The old man said seriously.
Liu Mo'ang nodded and said, "The old man is right. At present, the average life expectancy here is twelve years lower than the overall life expectancy of the plateau, and only fifty-eight years old, which is very scary."
Chu Qian didn't know about this, so she was surprised.
The old man nodded and said, "Xiao Liu is right. Although Shuanghu has developed very well with the strong support of the country, and it is said that it will be removed from the national poverty-stricken county by the end of this year, the natural conditions here are too bad. Even the native herdsmen, many of us, have a high-altitude disease. Especially for children, due to the harsh natural conditions, the development speed is generally slower than that of children outside. It doesn't matter to us old guys who are buried in the neck, and we can't lose money to the children.
Also, the global climate is now warming, and the impact on the plateau is also great. Shuanghu is the core area of the Qiangtang Plateau. The country has increased its protection of the Qiangtang Plateau in recent years, but this is far from enough. Because of our grazing, the grasslands here are degrading faster and faster. Now the grasslands on Shuanghu are aggravating the degradation at a rate of 3% to 5% per year! This is an amazing event. If we continue at this speed, it will not take long for Shuanghu to have no grasslands available, and it will also affect the ecological environment of the Qiangtang Plateau. It is precisely based on these factors that the country decided to relocate Shuanghu again and relocate us to the south. This is the origin of the second major relocation of Shuanghu."
Chu Qian asked again: "Then where are your family going to move?"
This time, it was Tsering Tashi, and answered: "Our family and herders who are preparing to relocate together are all placed in the Yajiang Valley. It is said that the altitude is more than 1,500 meters lower than here, and the temperature is much higher than here, which is very suitable for life. A friend went to the new home to see it some time ago, and he said that the new home there was very good repair. The houses are all two-story buildings covering an area of more than 150 square meters, and the appliances inside are all complete, as well as tap water and solar energy. My friend came back and said that he couldn't believe that this was provided by the state for free to us relocated households. Everything from the house to the inside is provided by the state for free. Well, what is the word called? It is the word that we can move in directly after we go."
"Calling in with your bag." Old Liu said with a smile.
"That's right, it's just check-in with your bag. We just need to take the bus provided by the state from here to there, and we can check in at any time. The conditions are not a little better than here. Thank you to the motherland, thank the party and the government!"
The old man also said excitedly: "Yes, this is all given to us by the country. We will remember the goodness of the country for the rest of our lives. This time I just want to go over and see what our new home looks like."
"Then won't you just spend the winter directly from there after you get there?" Chu Qian said with a smile.
"No." The old man shook his head straightforwardly.
"Why? The conditions over there are much better than here, why don't you spend the winter there?"
The old man smiled and said, "It's too hot there. Some time ago, Tsering's friend took his old mother to see the new house. They originally wanted to spend the winter there, but after living there for less than two days, the old lady couldn't stand it anymore. It's too hot. So the two of them ran back."
"Ah? It's still hot there?" Chu Qian ate a pound.
But Old Liu felt a little sad when he heard this. He heard something different from the old man's words.
Sure enough, the old man explained: "We have lived here for more than 40 years. The temperature here is much lower than that in Sunshine City. It is normal for the temperature here to be minus 30 to 40 degrees Celsius in winter, and it is also minus 10 degrees Celsius during the day. We have already adapted to the cold weather here. Although the temperature in winter is not high, it is much higher than that in ours. So, if we want to move over, we have to adapt slowly..."
Chu Qian stopped talking now.
Although this explanation is plain, it feels really uncomfortable to hear it.
The scenery is pretty good on the way from Twin Lakes to Bangor.
Because of the time, when the car passed by Selincuo, he even parked his car to appreciate the current largest lake in the plateau.
However, although Selincuo is much larger than Namcuo, it may be because the lake lacks a majestic mountain like the Nianqing Tanggula Mountain. Lao Liu feels that the scenery here is not as magnificent as Namcuo.
However, Chu Qian liked the scenery here very much. She took photos and videos for more than 20 minutes.
At noon, two cars arrived at Bangor and continued walking back after Bangor had lunch.
I didn’t think this road was easy to run when I walked from Dangke to Bangor before, but after experiencing the road from Shuanghu, both Lao Liu and Chu Qian thought that this not-so-spacious highway was really easier to run than the expressway.
As expected, I'm afraid of comparisons if it's something.
I crossed mountains and ridges and passed by Bamucuo. Of course, I also enjoyed the beautiful scenery of Bamucuo on the observation deck with an altitude of more than 4,700, making up for the regret of not enjoying the scenery of Bamucuo before.
After passing Bamucuo and climbing the Dangguola Mountain, Tashi Tsering, who had never seen Namucuo, was shocked by Namucuo's magnificence.
Although the old man met Namcuo when he was young, he has not seen Namcuo for more than 40 years since he went to Shuanghu.
In order to take care of the two men, the car was parked on the east side of the lake for a while, and asked the two men to go to the lake to have close contact with Namtuo.
Leaving Namcuo, crossing Nianqing Tanggula Mountain again, and finally arrived at Tianlu Inn when the moon was rising.
"Xiao Liu, is this the inn you run? It's quite a small scale." Before he got off the bus, the old man praised him.
"Well, this inn is actually my inheritance from my second uncle. My second uncle was in the army here and stayed here after demobilization..." While telling the old man about the inn, Lao Liu began to pack up the things in the car.
The white lion ran out of the car early and started peeing everywhere. After Chu Qian took out the dumplings, they also flapped their wings and flew high.
Compared to Shuanghu, this is their home.
"Xiao Liu, then your business must be good, right? So many cars parked at your door, and there are many customers."
"It's okay. Anyway, since it officially opened in September, the business has been very good. Even if it's the off-season for tourism, there are many people coming to eat and stay every day."
When Gesanglazhen and the others saw that the boss's car had come back, they hurried out to help clean up. The old man was also happy when he saw so many Tibetan girls, "Xiao Liu, have you hired a lot of Tibetan girls?"
"Well, they are all from the surrounding villages, and I have hired a total of seven. In fact, there are just twenty starry sky houses in the north of the inn, which are houses that allow tourists to enjoy the starry sky at night. There are also many people there, but they are all the people in the village who are busy there."
After all, the old man is a teacher. Although his education is not as good as a professor or something, the old man has lived for seventy years, and his vision is not comparable to that of ordinary people.
"Xiao Liu, your approach is very good. It is a very good way to make a fortune with local herders. I hope you can keep doing it."
"Don't worry, old man, I will definitely continue to do it for a long time."
While chatting and laughing, the group walked into the inn, and the old man was immediately shocked by the hot atmosphere in the inn.
"Tsk tsk, you have so many customers in your inn. I guess your turnover this day can catch up with the turnover of all hotels in Shuanghu County. It's amazing, it's really amazing."
"Haha, don't praise me. Let's go upstairs, I'll let the family prepare the meal. Tonight, you and Brother Tseren have a full meal and take a hot bath and have a good rest. Tomorrow, my wife and I will take you two to Shannan."
"Oh, this is not OK. After eating, Xiao Li and I will go to Riguang City to live." The old man quickly declined.
Li Junyi, who was standing beside him, said, "Old man, when I arrived at Xiao Liu's territory, I don't count. Don't talk about you, I'm afraid I can't leave tonight..."
"Haha, Brother Yi understands. No one can leave tonight. If anyone doesn't drink well, he can't get down the dining table." Old Liu said so domineeringly.
The old man looked at Old Liu and Li Junyi, and laughed and said, "Okay, then I'll have a few drinks with you today, old man."
Rene Liu gave her a thumbs up, "Look at what the old man said, you are so proud!"
Li Junyi and the others are all regular customers of the inn. Although it was the first time that the two of them were here, they had such a generous old man in charge, so they were not afraid of it.
The man on the plateau could drink it, but the old man was drunk until he could drink it. Even though he was seventy, he didn't even have to drink half a pound of wine.
The guests and guests enjoyed a meal...
