Chapter 177
The disaster worsens
Jin Minzhong hummed again, but Jin's mother sighed very much. It would be Zeng Lingfeng's, but she was much better than other men who had never met without a name.
"Taehee, sit down quickly and don't be tired." Without waiting for her husband to say anything, Kim's mother stood up tightly, grabbed her daughter's hand, and let her sit beside her. The daughter is the flesh that fell from her mother's body, and the old man feels distressed.
Snuggling beside his mother, Kim Tae-hee breathed a sigh of relief and felt unprecedented peace of mind. Shuiying's Danfeng kept glancing at Zeng Lingfeng. However, she saw that Boss Zeng slowly sat down and faced with Kim Min-jung. Her face was cinnabar-like and curled her head, like a child who had done something wrong, and she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
This is the first time Kim Tae-hee has seen Zeng Lingfeng show such a look. But it turns out that the omnipotent boss Zeng Da was also caught off guard.
"You..." After a long time, Jin Min-jung spoke.
"Dad, it's not Ling Feng's fault, I took the initiative." Before my father finished speaking, Kim Tae-hee said in the head.
"It's been a long time, right?" Jin Min-jung glared at her daughter and said in a muffled voice.
Zeng Lingfeng and Kim Tae-hee looked at each other, not expecting Kim Min-jung to ask this question.
"It's been a long time, let's start when I came to Beijing..." Kim Tae-hee murmured, as if she had returned to the years ago and met the handsome boy who made her dreams entangled.
Zeng Lingfeng smiled embarrassedly, raised his head and said, "Uncle Jin, aunt, it's been a long time since I asked Tae-hee to come to Beijing to develop."
Jin Minzhong was so bored, sighed, and said, "Ling Feng, I'm sorry."
Zeng Lingfeng really couldn't answer this question, so he had to smile and remain silent.
"I said Min Jung, don't say these words. Tae-hee now has a baby, which is more important than anything else. Tae-hee, how long has she been pregnant?" Kim Mother was opened than Kim Min Jung, which is also a different way of thinking between men and women. Kim Min Jung cares about reputation and influence, but Kim Mother cares more about her daughter's health and future.
"It's about ten days." Kim Tae-hee said shyly.
Just after Zeng Lingfeng returned from the United States, Kim Tae-hee expressed her hope of having a child. So, when the two were in love, they did not take contraceptive measures and they really won the bid with one shot.
"It's like this for only ten days? Then you will suffer from it in the future. This won't work. If you can't stand it, you have to find a good Chinese medicine doctor..." Jin's mother was nagging.
Kim Tae-hee laughed after hearing what her mother said, and said, "Mom, it's okay. I'm in good health. I have regular checkups every month. I'm very healthy."
Jin's mother said, "Or, you can go back to Ulsan to stay for a while. The climate there is better than that in Beijing, and it is easier to adjust. You are thirty years old and are the first child again, so you must be careful."
What the mother of Jin said is a fact. Ulsan is surrounded by the sea, and both the air and the climate are better than Beijing.
"I know, don't worry, there are a lot of things in the company. I think you and dad will stay there, right?" Kim Tae-hee looked at her mother with some expectation.
But Jin's mother looked at Jin Minzhong and said inquiringly: "Minzhong, what do you think?"
Jin Min-jung thought for a while and said, "Okay, then stay for a few more days."
In the next few days, Zeng Lingfeng and Kim Tae-hee accompanied Kim Min-jung and his wife to visit all the attractions around Beijing. Of course, it was mainly Zeng Lingfeng who accompanied them. After all, now that Kim Tae-hee is pregnant, Zeng Lingfeng and Kim Min-jung and his wife are very nervous about her and will not let her be tired.
During this period, Zeng Lingfeng also informed Jin Minzhong and his wife of his true situation.
Although he was extremely reluctant, Kim Min-jung and his wife had to admit it. After all, Zeng Lingfeng's identity was too difficult, and Kim Tae-hee could not become his legal wife.
Moreover, during these days, Zeng Lingfeng was able to accompany them to visit Beijing with all his heart, which also reduced the resentment in Jin Minzhong and his wife. After all, they knew that Zeng Lingfeng was the boss of Hanyu Mimo Group. With Zeng Lingfeng's current identity, there were really not many people in the world who could accompany him around.
In this way, Zeng Lingfeng can solve a problem.
While Zeng Lingfeng was visiting with Jin Minzhong and his wife, Zeng Lingfeng did not forget to pay attention to the severe drought that occurred in the southwest.
The great heavenly stems continue, and the disaster is getting worse and worse.
This time, no one can escape the crisis brought by drought. This is true for humans, and so is wild animals and plants. The latest statistics from the Yunnan Provincial Forestry Department show that this drought affected about 7.5 million mu of nature reserves in Yunnan Province, with a severe drought area of about 100,000 mu, resulting in some areas with relatively small ecologically fragile nature reserves and their surrounding water sources depleted, wetland area shrinks, and the survival and habitat environment of wild animals and plants were seriously affected. For example, Panzhihua cyca has been found to die in the Yaoshan National Nature Reserve in Qiaojia County, Zhaotong City. In addition, a large number of amphibians were found to die, and migratory birds migrated northward in advance.
The adaptation rate of forests to climate change is much lower than that of pests to climate change. The forest ecosystem has lost balance, and the number of forest pest populations has increased rapidly, which has serious harm. At present, the area of forestry pests in Yunnan Province has a mu, of which the harm is above moderate to tens of millions of mu. Compared with normal years, the area of occurrence has increased by 7.
This is just the beginning. Staff of the Yunnan Provincial Forestry Department and experts in conservation biology agreed that due to the strong integrity of the ecosystem, the impact of drought damage cannot be restored in the short term, and some are even irreversible. At the same time, in addition to individual death and reproduction damage, animals are extremely likely to be infected with diseases and spread epidemics.
In addition to affecting the ecology and causing economic losses, severe droughts may even lead to rising prices across the country.
Since the beginning of autumn last year, southwestern my country, including Guangxi, Chongqing, Sichuan, Guizhou and Yunnan, has encountered a rare severe drought in history, and currently has a crop of millions of hectares of crops. According to Xinhua News Agency, Ma Yuliang, member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee and Vice Premier of the State Council, presided over a special meeting of the State Council at the Command Center of the National Flood Control and Drought Relief Command on April 1. The meeting emphasized that the drought situation in the southwestern my country is still continuing, and the national drought situation is still developing, and the task of drought relief and disaster reduction is quite arduous; the continuous low temperatures in the Huanghuai and Haihai and the winter wheat areas in North China have seriously affected spring plowing, spring sowing and spring management, and the situation facing agricultural production is not optimistic.
In 2008, the grain output of the five southwest provinces and regions accounted for 158 in the national grain output, while the three provinces and regions in Yunnan, Guangxi and Guizhou, which suffered the most drought, accounted for 77 in the country. Judging from the main grain situation, the grain output of the five southwest provinces and regions accounted for 723 in the country. At present, it seems that grain production and major crop yield reductions in the affected areas this year are a foregone conclusion. It is roughly estimated that if the grain output in the arid areas is 10, the national grain output reduction is expected to be around 18.
Although the southwest is not the main grain producing area of my country, this does not affect people's expectations of food prices, but the overall price may rise. What followed was the accelerated rise of both futures and spot prices of agricultural products. Since February, the prices of major grain futures across the country have been experiencing a sharp decline: taking sugar as an example, although the Chicago price of this variety has suffered a deep plunge similar to that of the severe winter of the financial crisis in 2008, China's prices have not plummeted due to the drought in the southwest. The prices of three major grain crops, including the price of Dalian corn, Dalian soybean price, and Zhengzhou wheat price, were even more fuse by drought and rose collectively. The price of the main corn contract closed at 1,928 yuan on March 31, the soybean price closed at 3,888 yuan, and the wheat price closed at 2,280 yuan. Compared with the beginning of February, the overall upward trend was shown.
In more than half of the prefectures and cities in Yunnan Province, where the drought is the worst, rice prices have risen to varying degrees.
In addition, severe drought has caused a sharp drop in the water volume of rivers, which has affected the water supply in the southwest region. Even Chongqing and Sichuan are no exception.
In fact, the severe drought in recent days has caused many southwest regions torture. Some hydropower units have almost stopped production, and the hydropower generation in various places is much lower than the same period in history. What followed was a sharp rise in thermal power demand, and electricity coal was once again tightened, and power coal inventory in power plants has also become tight. In Sichuan, the inventory of some power plants has been below the 7-day warning line, while in Guangxi, drought has caused 90% of hydropower to be "paralyzed". In order to support the southwest as much as possible, the Central China Power Grid organized power support to the southwest under the dispatch of the State Grid. Among them, 1 million kilowatts of electricity came from Jiangxi, Henan thermal power, and 1 million kilowatts were imported from the Three Gorges hydropower. Experts estimate that drought will seriously affect at least 60 hydropower generation in the country. Data shows that in 2009, the proportion of hydropower generation in the five southwest provinces (cities and districts) in the country reached 447.
The serious crisis has become the most concerned thing in the minds of Chinese senior officials. Old Wen flew to Yunnan and Guizhou, which were the worst disasters three times.
It is the season for outings in Qingming Festival. The fields and hills that should have been green and tender, due to the drought, I saw a piece of burnt yellow and gray.
On the afternoon of the 3rd, when the special plane flew over Xingyi City, Lao Wen saw such a scene through the porthole, and his expression suddenly became solemn. As soon as he got off the plane, Lao Wen took a bus to seven pieces of land in the Civil Aviation Village of Xingyi City.
Old Wen squatted down on the ground, pinched the wheat ears and kneaded the shriveled wheat grains, and plucked the dry soil to check the soil moisture. He told the villagers who gathered here one after another that the Party and the government always care about you, and the people of the whole country are concerned about you. At present, we must do everything possible to ensure the safety of drinking water for the people, open up new water sources, and ensure the use of water for spring farming. Everyone works together to overcome the difficulties in front of us. The villagers said that when the Prime Minister is here, we feel much more at ease.
However, in the face of nature, can the steadfastness in people's hearts really change anything to reality?
Looking at the scene where Old Wen squatted in the dry and cracked big holes in the TV. It was originally a paddy field, Zeng Lingfeng couldn't help but ask in his heart.
