Although Gao Yuan thought he had good alcohol tolerance and would not have any problems with seven or eight bottles of beer, when he faced a group of strong men from Western Xinjiang, he found that he was simply fragile and was no match for him at all.

Two taels a cup of high-alcohol liquor, I tilted my neck and poured it down without even frowning.

Is this drinking?

Is it okay to be hard-working!?

And I drink so urgently that I don’t eat much.

How come you grab a large piece of grilled lamb chops and chew it? Why isn’t it more interesting than drinking?

Late at night, Han Chang sent Gaoyuan back to the hotel. Looking at Gaoyuan who was already drunk, he couldn't help but mutter, "I told you not to drink so much, but you didn't listen. Those guys in the Corps are very tough and can rank second in our army. You are not their opponent."

"Such awesome alcoholic capacity is the second place? Who is the first place?" Gao Yuan lay in the back seat and rubbed his temples with his hands.

"The first place is the brothers from Inner Mongolia. Anyone who has drunk with them will be dissatisfied. If you meet those guys in the future, you have to hide." Han Chang explained.

Soon after, the car stopped outside the hotel.

Han Chang brought Gaoyuan to the room, and asked the room service to send mineral water and honey, and used an electric kettle to burn honey water for Gaoyuan to drink.

"The so-called hangover recipes on the Internet are all deceiving people. If you drink the wine yourself, you have to bear it yourself. Although this thing cannot hang up, it can at least make the stomach feel better." Han Chang said while handing the honey water over.

After drinking three large cups of honey water, Gaoyuan felt a little more comfortable.

"What are you planning for the matter in Xijiang?" Han Chang saw that Gao Yuan was slowly awake, so he asked curiously.

The plateau turned around and looked at the bustling imperial capital outside the window. It was so brightly lit. It was summer. Although it was almost midnight, there were still many people walking and staying outside.

Although I have never lived in Western Xinjiang, the plateau still remembers the yellow sand scene in the desert described in the documentary. It is not only barren, but also barren, with few people. It is completely impossible to compare with the bustling and prosperous metropolis at present.

Gaoyuan said to himself: "There is land, but it is still lacking in water."

"You have seen the Blueprint. The essence of Sky City is not how grand the building is, but how close to nature, creating an atmosphere of harmonious coexistence between humans and nature, so that the humans living there have a pleasing impression, without looking around, they are all cold concrete buildings."

"It takes a lot of water to achieve this condition, and Western Xinjiang is short of water."

"What should I do?" Han Chang was disappointed by scratching his scalp.

The brothers of the Construction Corps really long for investment in the plateau. Due to the economic and high-pressure policies, after graduating from college in recent years, fewer and fewer young people who are willing to return to Western Xinjiang have become increasingly dying and losing their vitality.

The local area recruits professional talents with high salaries across the country, but the results are not satisfactory. If this continues, it will sooner or later destroy the plan of garrisoning the border. When the army is old now, who else can we rely on in the 1.66 million square kilometers of Western Xinjiang?

"There are actually still solutions." Gao Yuan pondered: "It's just that it's a big deal."

Han Chang was stunned, "What method? Tell me quickly! No matter how big it is, it can be bigger than the 1.66 million square kilometers of Western Xinjiang?"

The plateau smiled slightly and said lightly: "According to the latest statistics, the water storage capacity of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau has reached 9 trillion cubic meters, accounting for 22.3% of the total freshwater volume in the country. At the same time, the population on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is only more than three million..."

Gao Yuan calmly reported a series of data, remembering so clearly that he had been calculating for a long time.

Han Chang was stunned. He swallowed and said in surprise: "So you are still thinking about bringing the water from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau into Western Xinjiang?"

Gaoyuan said without comment: "In December 2020, my country drafted the anti-food waste law for the first time, and listed behaviors such as eating and broadcasting by big eaters as prohibited by law."

"Many friends don't understand. The big eater doesn't eat your meal, so they can control it? Moreover, the national law actually requires people to catch even a few more bites of food. It's too harsh."

"However, my friends who say these words may not understand the logic behind the law. The food production in our country is actually not as much as everyone imagines. At most, it is just enough food. If you want to raise pigs with food, it is absolutely impossible for everyone to eat braised pork every day."

"Once Western food supply is cut off, we can't buy enough soybeans, and the price of pork rises to 500 yuan per catty. I don't think it's rare at all, because according to the current food production, it's good to guarantee five kilograms of meat per year, and it's not enough to eat. Every year, the meat, eggs, milk, fish and shrimp we import from overseas, plus soybeans and vegetable oil, are astronomical."

"If we implement the plan for the Great Reclamation of Western Xinjiang, it will be a great thing for the benefit of future generations. After all, the old saying is good. If you have food in your hands, you will not feel panic."

After hearing Gao Yuan's words, Han Chang nodded repeatedly. As a soldier, he understood the weight of the four words "national security" better than ordinary people.

"But, haven't we discussed this matter long ago? According to your requirements, the military and national team have sent elite exploration forces to collect construction data. Now it can't be done. After a few years, the technical conditions will be ripe, and construction will be started at a time," said Han Chang.

The plateau shrugged, "The so-called technical problem is actually a cost problem. From Qinghai-Tibet to Western Xinjiang, it is a long distance of thousands of kilometers, and the terrain is extremely steep. The project volume is definitely not comparable to that of the Qiongzhou Strait Tunnel. All of them are made of carbon materials, and the cost will definitely be as high as the sky."

"But, with the development of technology, the situation is different now."

"Tsk." Han Chang muttered, "It's so mysterious. Isn't it your new building materials plan? Even if you can come up with the best quick-drying cement in the world, this super canal across the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau will cost less than much."

Plateau said with a lot of laughter and cry: "Quick-drying cement? Please do you have some imagination? Don't think about building materials in the direction of steel cement when you talk about building materials. Be bolder and think along our consistent R&D route. What achievements have we achieved in the field of materials science? Can these scientific research results subvert existing building materials? Follow this path, let go of your imagination's wings!"

Han Chang made a constipated expression and thought for a few minutes with all his strength. "I understand! You plan to use carbon composite materials to replace traditional steel skeletons!"

Alas~

Han Chang is a good person, but this poor imagination...

Gao Yuan felt speechless...

...

Returning to Jiangnan from the imperial capital, the plateau was like injecting chicken blood, entering a crazy working state.

The most difficult thing about the Sky City project is not technology, but overall planning, which requires strong project management capabilities.

There are too many departments and enterprises that need communication and coordination. In addition to the Western Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps, there are also major exploration groups, construction engineering groups, and many equipment and property suppliers. They also have to convince their strategic partners to follow and enter the Sky City.

The plateau was busy and dark. Soon after, the world's melon-eating people received news that the live broadcast on July 1 was temporarily cancelled.

At first, everyone thought it was nothing. Scientific research was not about squeezing toothpaste. With some force, you could always squeeze out something. Writing online novels is much simpler than scientific research. The author even asked for leave all day long and was delayed. Boss Gao occasionally asked for leave, which is normal and understandable.

But then there was news that even the live broadcast on July 15 was cancelled, and the live broadcast would not be resumed until August 1st at the earliest.

Now, all the enthusiastic audiences became restless and felt that something seemed to have happened.

In addition, more and more gossip news has spread from all over the country, directly pushing Kunlun Group to the forefront.

Everyone felt that the long-term suspension of broadcasts may be because Kunlun Group is doing big things!

"Have you heard that? The Kunlun Group's engineer team has been sent to Western Xinjiang in succession, and some of them have gone to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau."

"I know about this matter. The Western Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps has begun to mobilize in batches! A large number of backbones are gathering at the 14th Division's garrison, which is definitely a big deal!"

"The 14th Division's garrison? Hotan? Tarim Basin? What kind of plane can be used in places where birds don't poop?"

"I don't know, but our 9th Division, which is far away in Tacheng, has also sent a large force."

"Have the Ninth Division gone? I am from the 7th Division next door to you, and the leader said he would go the day after tomorrow. His wife didn't agree to me to go, and he was in a state of trouble."

"It's a military order to start the corps. If you don't go, you have to go to the military court!"

"Ahem, I don't understand the matter of the Corps. We are Boss Gao's partners. Recently, Kunlun Group has placed an amazing number of OEM orders, and there are thousands of sets of mechanical exoskeletons ordered."

"Not many sets?"

"It's not many, but don't forget that Boss Gao has hundreds of partners, big and small, in the field of automatic machinery."

"Our Wuling Group has also received an order. A heavy-duty flying car. The design drawings were produced by Boss Gao. We are responsible for assembling it. From the current perspective, the horsepower and design of this flying car are very amazing, and it seems to be used to traction heavy cargo."

"Hyperload flight? Hell, what plane is Boss Gao working on?"

There were many discussions in the major forums.

There are no airtight walls in the world. As more and more news comes out, everyone suddenly realizes it.
