Chapter 2426 Bad Road
There is often a gap between ideals and reality.
Because last night Xiao Qi took Ling Shuangshuang to eat Malatang, which is commonly known as "Chuan Chuan Xiang" in Rongcheng. After they came back, they were affectionate and lingering for a while. Although they were not touched by swords, the fatigue of the journey and the excitement of getting along with their lover were combined.
, making Ling Shuangshuang unable to get up until 7 o'clock in the morning.
There was no other way, Xiao Qi picked up the sweet and playful girl, put her clothes on, and then carried her down from the hotel to the car.
Then Ling Shuangshuang also slept all the way until he reached the mountainous area in the northern part of Sichuan River, when he was woken up by the constant bumps.
"Hmm...where is this place?...ah"
Ling Shuangshuang opened her hazy sleepy eyes and just asked a question. The car passed through a small pit, jolting her from her seat and startling her.
I originally thought it was just an accident, but in the next twenty minutes, Ling Shuangshuang realized what it means to have a bumpy mountain road.
Just looking at the rugged mountain road outside, she was already so frightened that she clutched Xiao Qi's hand. Coupled with the potholes along the way, even if she fastened her seat belt, her body was constantly shaking with the vibration of the car.
.
Fortunately, Ling Shuangshuang didn't eat breakfast, otherwise she would definitely have vomited it out.
Fortunately, the car was the Land Cruiser, which is the most stable on mountain climbs, also known as the "Prince of the Desert." If I had used another car, it would have been shaken to pieces or unstable in corners.
Finally, when Ling Shuangshuang felt that he could no longer hold on any longer, the car team finally bypassed the mountain road and stopped on a flat terrain to rest for a while.
There are many vehicles coming and going on this flat land. Many of them come to take a rest.
When she got off the bus, Ling Shuangshuang immediately bent over and spit out sour water.
Xiao Qi brought her a bottle of mineral water from the trunk. Ling Shuangshuang rinsed her mouth and drank water. After a long time, she sat limply on the ground, not caring about her image at all.
"What kind of road is this? Is it so difficult to walk?" Looking at the mountains not far away and the winding road, Ling Shuangshuang complained helplessly, "I feel like I have walked into a mountain thousands of miles away."
"Almost, this is a branch of the Nongmen Mountains." Xiao Qi sat next to her and let Ling Shuangshuang lean on his shoulders. "You are walking on the old mountain road now, and the new road is still under construction.
Including the tunnels and bridges that have been erected, they will be opened to traffic in about two years. By then, it should be much easier to walk."
"Why didn't the road be built earlier? Everyone has been taking this road for so many years. Don't you think it is dangerous and troublesome?" Ling Shuangshuang said in surprise.
"This road was built 20 years ago. It's not too old." Xiao Qidao said, "The road used to be worse than this, but because of many mudslides and other disasters, the road has been blocked.
It took five years to repair this. The fact that it has been used for so long is also the result of frequent maintenance."
From the Nongmen Mountains in the north of Sichuan to the boundary of Dunhuang Province, the road is only slightly better than the Qinling Mountains leading to the Qinling Mountains.
But Dunhuang is even poorer than Qinling, so these mountain roads have not been repaired much, let alone new roads.
That is to say, the road repairs here can be sustained only by the fees paid by vehicles that often pass through these two places.
The road construction in Baodao actually started in the 1970s and 1980s. However, they were a small place and had strong economic support in those years, so Ling Shuangshuang had never seen worse road conditions than here.
Her previous impressions of poor places were only "shabby houses among green mountains and green waters", "thatched huts in the mountains far away from the downtown area", "all living facilities are inconvenient", "all kinds of food are natural"...etc.
However, I never thought that I would encounter such a huge difficulty in transportation before even getting to the place.
"If you want to build a new road here, it will cost a lot of money to dig caves and build bridges, right?" Ling Shuangshuang asked smoothly.
"The average cost of one kilometer of the most core road section is more than 100 million." Xiao Qi said, "This is not 100 million that needs to be deducted at every level to build an expressway, but a real amount of labor. It is expected to start from
The total distance from Qinglian County in Sichuan to Dandan County in Dunhuang is about 60 kilometers, and half of the roads are built in the mountains."
"You know it so clearly, did you cultivate it?" Ling Shuangshuang guessed very smartly.
"Yes. This is part of the post-disaster reconstruction. There are 13 other standard secondary roads under construction, leading from the disaster area to all directions." Xiao Qidao, "Fairy Company, Xiaoniao.com, WeChat Company, Weibo
The company, Qiwen Airlines, Kiwi Film and Television Group and other companies need to donate 50 billion yuan every year for three years, with a total amount of up to 150 billion yuan."
"Wow, these companies seem to be either yours or your... wives', right?" Ling Shuangshuang stuck out her tongue and said, "Xiao Qi, you are so rich!"
Under the influence of the Hong Kong paparazzi, the media in Baodao have become gossipy in recent years.
Since Fairy Company came into being two years ago, the most popular gossip is of course related to Xiao Qi.
Whether it's true or false, whether it's reliable or not, as long as you have a relationship with Xiao Qi, you can gossip about it, and the TV show can even discuss a beauty around Xiao Qi for ten episodes.
period.
Therefore, most of Xiao Qi's wives were also well known to them. Although some photos of Mrs. Xiao were not available, it did not prevent them from gossiping.
Even many beauties who had nothing to do with Xiao Qi were far-fetched and attached to Xiao Qi.
For example, Sister Zhiling, the most beautiful girl in Baodao, when reporters went to interview her, she shyly said, "We have nothing to do with each other, we just had dinner together, so please don't write nonsense"...
Sister Zhiling can win eyeballs and get more advertising endorsements, gossip reporters and TV stations can have entertainment topics to write about, and the audience can have the pleasure of spying on the world's richest man. Isn't this a happy experience for everyone?
So basically Ling Shuangshuang still knows how many women Xiao Qi has.
But she doesn't care, because she has already considered it before. Since she has fallen in love with Xiao Qi, she will not care about other things. Like the sisters in the United States and Hong Kong, she stayed in the treasure island by herself.
It would be better if we don't have any disputes with Mrs. Xiao.
"One code equals one code. These are the money they spent in real money." Xiao Qi smiled and waved his hand: "When you have money, you should give more back to those in need. This is also a blessing for our entire family.
Well. So they are very serious about donating, and there are supervisors at these construction sites who will report the progress to us at any time."
Ling Shuangshuang asked again: "Isn't the government taking the lead? Such an important project."
"Yes, all the technical experts are sent by them, and they are also responsible for handling various procedures along the way." Xiao Qida said, "But the construction and finance are under our control. This is a donation.
Things that were agreed upon before."
"Are there any charges after it's repaired?"
"For this road, there must be a toll. Otherwise, where will the maintenance and repair costs come from? It can't always rely on donations, right?" Xiao Qi replied, "In addition, there are restrictions here, and it is not allowed to carry too heavy a load.
When cars pass by, cars exceeding the limit are not allowed to pass. Only cars and small trucks can pass."
"I know that those potholes we walked through just now were made by large trucks, right?" Ling Shuang said happily, "On the one hand, it is seriously overweight, and on the other hand, the quality of the road is not up to standard... Baodao was like this before, but
After going through severe punitive measures, things are much better now."
"There are too many things involved here, so we can only take care of ourselves first." Xiao Qi said with a smile, "I heard from the driver that we have crossed more than half of the mountains now, and there is still an hour to go.
The mountain road then reaches the flat and hilly areas.”
"Is there anything more?" Ling Shuangshuang almost fainted, her little face turned pale all of a sudden, but she was very strong, "Come on! Anyway, this girl has been consumed by it today. It's amazing that she didn't eat for a whole day... Oh,
Too bad, you shouldn’t have given me water!”
Having said that, Xiao Qi still asked the drivers to stop for half an hour before driving.
This time Xiao Qi deliberately asked them to slow down. Although many cars behind him honked their horns in dissatisfaction, he still couldn't stand up when he encountered a row of seven or eight all-color Land Cruisers.
So, after a half-hour drive, it took a full hour to walk out.
When the car stopped again in the wasteland next to the highway, Ling Shuangshuang, who had been holding it in for a long time, vomited out even the water again.
"Xiao Qi, you really built this road, everyone will be grateful to you!" Ling Shuangshuang said feebly as the boy held him in his arms.
The young man smiled and patted her jade back, "Isn't it? If these roads are repaired, then the poor areas in the north of Sichuan, the northwest, and the poor areas in Dunhuang can communicate more with the outside world, so that they can communicate with the outside world.
With or without it, you can naturally become rich... Speaking of which, if you accumulate virtue through this, my little Shuangshuang will definitely be able to give birth to two babies for me in one go!"
"What are you talking about?" Ling Shuangshuang said angrily, "Does it seem like this girl can only have two children? I want two sons and two daughters! A big brood is my wish since childhood!"
Xiao Qi smiled slightly.
The sweet and playful girl had no idea what Xiao Qi's words meant.
Xiao Qi remembered that Ling Shuangshuang's body in her previous life had some birth defects, which meant that it was difficult to conceive a child. When the test results came out, she cried like a human being.
It is difficult to make up for birth defects, which is why Xiao Qi did not ask her to get treatment.
After two years, Ling Shuangshuang wants to have a baby, so let the masters of traditional Chinese medicine here take care of her for a while, and then see if there is such an opportunity.
Not to mention two children, even if Xiao Shuangshuang is pregnant with one, it is definitely because the Xiao family and the Ling family have a lot of blessings!
