Chapter 285 The Small Town on the Iceberg
Sure enough, as Lin Feng expected, Hao Xiaolei contacted him directly on the same day, asking for an additional order for accessories.The three major mobile phone manufacturers played a big role, and they sold 1000 million sets without any hesitation at all. Moreover, the payment of 220 billion yuan has already arrived, and he will personally share a profit of nearly 84 billion yuan.

With this money coming in, Xingkong Silkworm and garbage recycling machines can be promoted and installed faster.

Looking at the time, it was already past three o'clock in the afternoon, and the shield machine was turning, digging out a U-shaped vent.

Lin Feng looked at the map, and the current location was exactly one kilometer away from BS County. Thinking about how hard he had come across a place with people, he simply got out through the vent, and wanted to go around the county town to buy some supplies. .

And without training for 10 days, he felt that his whole body was getting rusty, and it would be good to go out to relax.

Following him all the time, the three soldiers in charge of liaison also came out with two of them. They were all fully armed, wearing thick cotton coats, long-haired hats, and black leather military boots. They looked very warm. .

After 10 days of getting along, everyone was almost familiar with each other. The three of them chatted all the way, stepping on the soft snow all the way, and walked towards the small county town in the distance.

crunch - crunch -

It is not a comfortable time to walk in the snow that is almost below the knees.

Fortunately, Lin Feng was wearing protective clothing. Although it looked thin, it was very effective in keeping warm and his body was relatively flexible.

"Aren't you cold?" a soldier asked, "It's minus seven or eight degrees here, how dare you wear only one piece of clothing."

"It's not cold," Lin Feng smiled, and spewed out a thick white mist.

Another person joked: "Tong Zigong hasn't broken his body yet."

Lin Feng suddenly felt a smile.

The wind blowing from an unknown direction was whining on the top of the head, surrounded by huge mountains, and in some places halfway up the mountain, black rocks were still exposed.

The river at the foot of the mountain has been completely frozen, and the sparse trees outside the county town have long been wax trees and silver flowers.

Said to be the county town, in Lin Feng's opinion, it is smaller than the small town of his hometown, and the houses are also relatively low. White mist is steaming on some roofs, dissipating quickly in the cold wind.

When I came outside the county seat, I could see some young and strong men gathering around an artificial canal, using wooden barrels to fetch water from the broken ice.

"In another half a month, we can only boil snow." A soldier introduced, "It's not cold enough yet, the top of the canal is only frozen, and there is still a little running water in the lower layer."

Lin Feng couldn't help lamenting the hardships of the local people's life, and the trouble of using water for domestic use.

He had heard a lot of things here before. He heard that in the early days, these places were mainly herding, and they didn't take baths all year round.Even earlier, people washed twice in their lifetime.Once on the day of birth and once on the day of death.

At that time, he found it unimaginable that without a bath for a week, people were about to collapse.

But now he understands a little bit, because in this low-pressure, low-temperature environment, the human body really seldom sweats in order to keep warm.

The current altitude is only more than 3200 meters. When it exceeds 4000 meters, the air pressure will be lower, and it will be very dangerous to sweat easily.

It is easy to catch a cold in this way, which may be accompanied by fever and pulmonary edema, and those who are weaker may die from then on.

Walking to the county seat, I saw only thin snow on the narrow streets, and some people were driving ox carts on the street.The shops on both sides of the street are hung with thick woolen felt, and the glass windows are tightly closed, with advertisements written in Chinese and Tibetan.

"There is nothing to buy here," said the soldier who accompanied him. "Everything in the mall is brought in from below."

"Unless you want to buy sheepskin waistcoats or cowhide boots, but I swear you will not like them. The sheepskin and cowhide have not been tanned, and the smell on them can be smelled tens of meters away."

Although it was a bit exaggerated, Lin Feng knew it was true.

Even when he eats mutton, he dislikes the smell, so let him directly wear the original sheepskin on his body, think about it and let it go.

"I want to buy some game." Lin Feng said.

"I know you want this, come with me."

The soldiers took him into an alley familiarly. The shops here are mainly food. The cold air exudes a strong smell of mutton and beef soup. A long icicle hangs down.

The two soldiers led Lin Feng all the way to the end of the alley. This is a shop selling raw meat. Maybe they came at the wrong time and the business was relatively cold.

Lin Feng bought two peeled goats, and originally wanted to buy a cow leg, but considering the load, he still didn't buy it.

Next door to the mutton shop is the work shop.

Roe roe, gazelle, dried bison and fritillary hen.

Lin Feng likes to eat dry food, especially the salted and air-dried roe deer meat, boiled in water and cut into cold dishes, the taste is simply more delicious than anything else.

He bought a few roe deer, a few pieces of dried beef, and a dozen hens before leaving contentedly.

When he got outside, he went to buy some spices and dried chilies. As for vegetables such as Chinese cabbage, he didn't need them. He just called Jia Xiaoliang and asked him to bring some.

Carrying a large bag of things, Lin Feng walked around the empty street, and saw a newly built school, and the sound of Lang Lang's reading came from inside.

Although it is a newly built house, the overall conditions are still very difficult. There is only a basketball hoop and a cement table tennis table on the playground. The glass in the classroom is also damaged a lot, and the cold wind blows straight into the classroom.

The school has no guards, not even a gate.

Lin Feng and the others put their things in a corner, and then wandered around the small school.

When the teacher in the office saw them, he probably was more used to the entry of outsiders, so no one came to ask.

"There are mines in Basu, and they are mined by engineering troops, so it is very common for us to dress up like this." A soldier gave him a science introduction, "However, this season has already passed, and we will not resume work until next May when the ice and snow melt. .They only work a little over five months a year."

Lin Feng nodded, feeling that it really is one side of water and soil, one side of the world.

It was only more than 800 kilometers away from Rongcheng, and his three views had been completely refreshed.

He had heard before about how poor the people in the mountains were and how bad the conditions were, but he had never seen it with his own eyes, and had no specific impression at all.

Now come to the last time to realize that the rumors are not all false.

This place is covered with ice and snow for more than half of the year, the soil is also very barren, and you can't even see much green grass. It is really difficult to think how rich you are.

But if a small railway station can be built here, and the cattle and sheep they raise can be sold out, and then exchanged for various commodities and vegetables, life will surely be much easier.

And it's only [-] miles to Rongcheng, and it takes four to five hours at most by train. I go to Rongcheng in the morning to catch a market, and I can come back for dinner in the evening.

This is the importance of transportation.

Presumably, life here will gradually get better in the future.

After leaving the school, the three of them returned the same way with their belongings on their backs. After putting down the belongings from the straight vent, they slid down with the rope placed at the entrance of the hole.

After driving to catch up with the shield machine in front, they lit an alcohol stove in one of the ear holes, boiled water to wash the air-dried roe deer meat, then stuffed it into a pressure cooker, added enough spices and dried chilies, and stewed it vigorously with.

Soon the air pressure rose, and the pressure-limiting valve of the pressure cooker spewed out steam, and gradually the aroma began to dissipate.
