Hello 1983 - Chapter 1116
Chapter 1116 Shanxing has grown up!
Liu Qingshan and his party entered the ostrich garden from the main entrance. There were more than 200 people in the garden, including workers and veterinarians.
There are nearly 5,000 ostriches in the garden, big and small, and a lot of people are needed for feeding and cleaning the pens a day.
There are four ostrich gardens like this in Rainbow City.
The growth cycle of ostriches is relatively long among birds, and it takes two or three years to fully mature.
Wait until that time, you can quickly expand the number of breeding.
Fortunately, ostriches are not picky eaters. They mainly use plant fiber and add some feed. In fact, they are not much different from raising chickens, except that they are bigger.
It’s better to be bigger, and there will be more meat when the time comes, isn’t it?
Ostrich meat is high in protein, low in fat, and has higher nutritional value than beef and chicken. It is a relatively healthy meat.
There are also various processing methods, and it is best to eat with sauce.
Ostrich eggs are also a good food, and ostrich skin can also be processed into leather, so raising ostriches has a good prospect.
When leaving the ostrich garden, Little Six and Little Dili’s family were holding a big ostrich egg, and the two girls were still studying how to eat it.
It seems that no matter how I eat, I can’t eat a single meal.
The convoy entered Rainbow City. Every time he came here, Liu Qingshan could feel the changes in this city.
How should I put it, if you compare it, it is like Pengcheng in China.
Entering the urban area, you can already see some high-rise buildings with a height of more than ten floors. Here, they are considered relatively tall.
Most of the team led by Yang Hongying came to Rainbow City for the first time, and they all looked out the car window curiously.
Gradually, someone noticed something strange: “It seems to be similar to our big cities in China?”
If you don’t look at the pointed minaret in the temple, if you don’t look at the aborigines wearing turbans on the street, the city in front of you is really similar to ordinary cities in China, with a strong Chinese color.
There is no way, the builders of this city are all from China, subconsciously, they built the current appearance.
“The tallest building is the TV building. In Rainbow City, we can finally watch TV.” Xiao Wu pointed to the building in front of him with a proud face.
Liu Qingshan was also very curious, and decided to watch TV at night and what programs were on.
Passing by another building, I saw Rainbow Bank written on it, and Liu Qingshan nodded unconsciously: in the future, slowly, we can form our own financial system.
The entire Rainbow City is actually equivalent to a country within a country.
The convoy drove into the guest house of the city hall, and everyone settled down, and it happened to be lunch time.
“Where’s Fifth Sister?” Little Six got out of the car and went to Shan Xing first.
“I went to the countryside with the medical team.” The old squad leader replied.
As soon as he heard about the medical team, Little Six’s eyes immediately filled with smiles: “Then I’ll go find her tomorrow!”
The team led by Yang Hongying received a warm welcome, and there were more accompanying guests than guests.
It seems that in this regard, Rainbow City has also continued the Huaxia style.
The dishes are also very rich. In addition to meat, there are all kinds of seafood on the table. The main reason is that there is not much seafood supply in China.
Large pieces of camel meat are also very popular. Of course, the most delicious is the hump. It is fried in oil and sprinkled with salt and pepper. It is fragrant but not greasy.
The ostrich eggs brought back by Xiaoliuzi and Xiaodi Li were also carefully cooked by the chef: the egg liquid was broken up, and the minced lobster meat was stirred in, and then steamed together in a pan. The guy grinned.
“I feel that the standard of living here is higher than that in China.” Yang Hongying couldn’t help but praise.
Xiao Wu replied with a smile: “Our Rainbow City is of course the richest in the Lilan area. Many other tribes can’t eat enough.”
The old squad leader also took up the conversation: “And now there are frequent frictions between the tribes, and even the UN peacekeeping force has been sent.”
Liu Qingshan was also about to scoop up a spoonful of lobster custard to taste. Hearing this, the spoon stopped in midair.
He suddenly recalled: In 1993, a major event happened here, that is, the famous “Black Hawk Incident”, which seemed to be made into a movie later.
It’s just that this incident has had a profound impact on the entire Liland, completely excluding Liland from the international community, and then the chaos has continued.
Liu Qingshan couldn’t help shaking his head. There are too many incidents like this. Under the guise of the United Nations and under the banner of aid, they ended up getting more and more chaotic.
After eating and resting for a while, Yang Hongying hurriedly went to the factory area.
“Old sister, don’t be in such a hurry, let’s rest first.” Liu Qingshan felt sorry for the old sister.
However, Yang Hongying has such a hot-tempered temperament, she has already arrived at the place, and if she doesn’t take a look, she can’t wait for anything.
So we drove together to the industrial area on the outskirts of the city, which is located in the north of Rainbow City and is relatively close to the port, which is convenient for the transportation of goods.
In addition to the government officials led by Xiaowu, newspapers and TV stations also sent reporters, and John personally led the team.
John is now the top leader of Rainbow City’s cultural department, leading the news media.
About ten miles out of the city, I saw a large industrial area, which covered a huge area.
“Are the workers off work yet?” Yang Hongying looked at the dark crowd facing her, feeling a little strange. It shouldn’t be during this time period.
The old squad leader cheered: “Refugees are coming again, ready to receive them.”
Refugees?
People who came from the country were surprised. Although the country is not rich, there are no refugees either.
And there are still so many, look at it, at least a few thousand people.
Among the accompanying team, several native officials ran out immediately.
They often receive refugees, and they are already familiar with it.
Look at the beaming faces on their faces, as if these refugees are not a burden, but a great asset.
In the past few years, because of the collapse of the government and the chaos of various tribes, there have been a lot of refugees in Liland.
According to statistics, from 1990 to now, in three years, the number of refugees who have starved to death has exceeded 500,000.
It is precisely because of this that the United Nations will come to aid.
There is also the US government, which also thinks this is a good image project, so two consecutive presidents have launched assistance to this side, and sent 28,000 soldiers to help maintain order, hoping that all tribes can put down weapons, to negotiate peace.
If the whole world can see the assistance of the United States to the refugees here, it will undoubtedly greatly enhance the image and international influence of the United States.
So on Liland’s side, there was a magical scene: American soldiers with guns distributed relief food to refugees.
In fact, this kind of hunger and poverty is also happening in other countries on this continent.
“Isn’t there a joint rescue? Why are there so many refugees?”
Yang Hongying is a little puzzled. Refugees fleeing famine and the like can only be seen in movies before liberation; in real life, their generation has never had a similar experience.
Liu Qingshan shook his head: “There is an old saying on our side of China, which is that it is very reasonable to provide one hunger but not a hundred satiations.”
Yang Hongying blinked her eyes wide and realized something: “Rescue refugees, like our Rainbow City, provide them with stable housing, then provide them with jobs, and gradually let them support themselves. This is the best rescue.”
As for distributing food and relief items to refugees, it is simply a temporary solution, not a permanent cure.
“So, our Rainbow City, in the whole of Lilan, is the paradise that those tribes yearn for!” When Xiao Wu said this, his face was extremely proud.
At this time, Little Six suddenly yelled: “Fifth Sister, Fifth Sister is inside!”
After finishing speaking, he ran up with short legs.
The refugee army is gradually approaching, isn’t it Shan Xing in front, who is leading the refugees forward with several medical team members.
“Six, when did you come? Brother!”
Shan Xing also yelled and rushed up, she finally saw Liu Qingshan, rushed to Liu Qingshan, and plunged into her elder brother’s arms.
Liu Qingshan gently stroked Shan Xing’s head, the fifth child was obviously darker and thinner, but he looked stronger.
The most important thing is that her eyes are extremely clear and bright, and there is a trace of firmness in the depths of her pupils. Such a person must have his own belief in his heart.
Liu Qingshan couldn’t help sighing in his heart: Shan Xing has grown up!
The rest of the medical team also came over, led by Dr. Wang Chunying, and greeted Liu Qingshan with a smile.
“Sister Wang, everyone has worked hard.”
Seeing that these team members are all dressed in dust, Liu Qingshan couldn’t help but feel a surge of respect in his heart.
Those who have been able to persevere in this barren land are worthy of respect.
Wang Chunying straightened her short hair in front of her forehead: “On the way back, I met these refugees and came back together.”
While speaking, the army of refugees had already approached. When they saw Liu Qingshan and their convoy, they were timid and did not dare to approach.
Everyone finally saw the true colors of the refugees, and felt a little disrespectful.
One by one, no matter men, women, old or young, they are all naked.
Those little dolls were all skinny and skinny, with especially big eyes, looking around pitifully and helplessly.
All of them, big or small, carried ragged bags and the like, and the rags inside were their entire wealth.
Facing the well-dressed Liu Qingshan and his group, the refugees all flinched. Their eyes were dazed and dull, not knowing where their future lies?
Shan Xing ran back and shouted loudly in the local dialect: “Rainbow City is not far ahead, we are home!”
Are you home, home?
At this moment, the eyes of many refugees suddenly became radiant.
The refugees obviously have great trust in Shan Xing, who has been with them for the past few days.
The officials in charge of resettling refugees in Rainbow City also walked up: “Yes, Rainbow City will accept everyone, no matter which tribe you used to be, if you come here, you are a member of Rainbow City!”
Another local woman also shouted: “Everyone is here, as long as you work hard, you will be able to eat enough, and your children can still go to school. Your suffering is over, it is over!”
Sobbing and cheering sounded together, and many refugees began to pray devoutly. Their lives turned a new page.
