The Great Power of Times

Chapter 542: Rapid development

Views:

It doesn't cost much to buy a desert, but it costs a lot to manage it.

Li Zetian has too much money on hand, so even though it is expensive to treat deserts, when he thinks of the final benefits, he resolutely decides to develop deserts and turn waste into treasure.

There are many ways to control the desert, such as setting up grass checkered sand barriers. The so-called grass checkered sand barrier, as the name implies, is to use wheat straw, straw, reed and other materials to spread on the sand in a checkered shape, and then roll it into the sand with a shovel, and the remaining 1/3 or half of it stands naturally on the sand. Then move the sand in the center of the square to the surrounding wheat grass roots, so that the wheat grass stands firmly on the sand to form a windbreak wall, so as to weaken the erosion of wind, and at the same time, it has the effect of intercepting rainfall and can improve the content of the sand layer. The amount of water is conducive to the growth of sand plants.

On the north bank of the Yellow River in the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region of China, there is a place that was once unknown, but later became a sensation in the world, which is Shapotou. Here, a miracle in the history of human sand control was born, ending the long-standing dilemma of "sand making people retreat". And the creation of this miracle stems from a simple and incredible thing, the wheat grass square. This simple grass square is famous all over the world, and can not help but be called "Chinese Rubik's Cube" abroad!

Li Zetian felt that this kind of simple and effective grass squares deserves to be vigorously promoted. In the past, the Chinese built grass squares by hand, but they can use machinery to quickly lay grass squares in a large area, and the effect is sure to be amazing! ! !

Of course, there are many conventional methods, so I won't mention them one by one.

In addition to these means, Li Zetian's main plan is to transfer seawater to the desert regardless of cost, and build a seawater desalination plant, so as to obtain a large amount of fresh water and to make salt.

Of course, seawater does not need to be desalinated completely, and seawater agriculture can also be developed in deserts.

Seawater is inexhaustible, and it is a long-standing dream of mankind to irrigate crops with seawater. In the 21st century, with the efforts of countless scientists, this dream is expected to come true. With the continuous development of agricultural science and technology, in order to effectively solve the problems of freshwater crisis, food crisis, reduction of arable land and environmental degradation, a new agricultural model was born. At this moment, seawater-irrigated agriculture is emerging all over the world!

In short, without water, desert governance is just empty talk!

The desert environment is very harsh and unbearable for human beings. Therefore, Li Zetian also intends to use a large number of robots and large-scale machinery. In addition, gene technology companies are also actively developing biotechnology to develop drought-tolerant transgenic plants.

At the beginning of the new year of 2014, the plan to transform the desert began. The project is huge and shocking. Because it is necessary to start construction in Africa, it is naturally unbearable to hire local workers, which solves the employment problem of a large number of local people and promotes local economic development, especially those countries that sold the desert to Li Zetian, benefited a lot.

Africa is a potentially huge market, but unfortunately it is too poor. If Li Zetian wants to sell products, they have to afford it...

Helping poor African countries to develop is actually beneficial to Li Zetian, the United States and other countries around the world.

Therefore, from the moment Li Zetian decided to transform the desert, he planned to aid Africa and make it develop rapidly. Li Zetian plans to invest 500 billion US dollars in business, education and railway construction. Li Zetian believes that with him taking the lead, other investors will soon turn their attention to Africa.

In fact, many investors have begun to pay attention to the economic development of African countries. In addition, they are very interested in the contracting desert project proposed by Li Zetian.

Li Zetian's movement and determination to transform the desert are so great that people can't help but be full of fantasies about the future of the desert!

In the past few decades, Li Zetian has created countless myths. In the eyes of everyone, Li Zetian is synonymous with success. His influence and appeal are unparalleled!

Since January 2014, with the vigorous desert transformation plan, more and more people began to participate in contracting desert projects.

The area of 700,000 square kilometers is astonishingly large. However, by March, nearly half of the desert had been contracted out. If Li Zetian hadn't kept the remaining half for his own use, I am afraid that some people would be willing to rush to contract it.

Since then, Li Zetian spent $500 million to buy the desert, not only paid for it, but also earned $450 million. In other words, when these deserts changed hands, not only did Li Zetian get 350,000 square kilometers of desert, but he also earned 450 million US dollars.

The name of a man, the shadow of a tree.

Others are really envious!

This is not a big deal. What is even more powerful is that in the future, Li Zetian can also share 10% to 30% of the income from the contractors here.

There is a saying that "everyone gathers firewood and the flame is high". With so many people joining in, the speed of desert transformation will become faster!

The desert reconstruction plan and the African aid plan are in full swing, and Li Zetian has not forgotten the development of the ocean.

As we all know, the earth's surface area is about 510 million square kilometers, of which land accounts for 29% and the ocean accounts for 71%.

It can be seen that marine resources are much more than continental resources!

Compared with terrestrial economic activities, marine development is an emerging field. In addition to the traditional marine fishery, marine transportation and sea salt industry, due to the development of modern science and technology, the ability of human beings to understand the ocean and develop the ocean has been continuously improved, the scope of ocean development has expanded, new resources have been discovered, and economic activities in new fields have been developed. A series of marine emerging industries have been formed, such as marine aquaculture, marine oil and gas extraction industry, marine entertainment and tourism. There are also some marine economic development activities in the process of industrialization, such as seawater desalination and comprehensive utilization of seawater, marine energy utilization, marine drug development, new utilization of marine space, and deep-sea mining.

Since the beginning of the year, Li Zetian has invested 500 billion US dollars to establish the Cronos Marine Group, and then frantically acquired companies related to marine development, and then formed eight subsidiaries: marine transportation, marine mining, marine fishery, marine salt industry, marine oil and gas industry, marine energy, marine pharmaceutical industry, marine entertainment.

People can't help but sigh, Li Zetian is really good, and the Chronos Marine Group has become the world's largest marine company from the very beginning.

Some people are happy and some are worried. Japan is the world's largest aquatic empire, and Japan has the fourth of the world's nine fishing giants. Is it awesome? And South Korea also has one.

Li Zetian vigorously developed the marine industry, and the fisheries of Japan and South Korea were greatly affected. As for the other four major fishing companies, almost all of them have become subsidiaries of the Marine Fisheries Company under the Cronos Marine Group:

One is Thailand's Tai Wansheng, established in 1977 by Chinese Chen Hanshi, and is currently the world's largest manufacturer of shelf-stable tuna products;

One is the Dutch nutreo.

One is marineharvest in Norway.

One is Cargill Aquatic Products.

The Japanese fishery giants are all supported by Japanese consortiums, and Japanese companies like to group together. Therefore, Japan's fishery industry is far more developed than other countries.

However, Japan has four major fishing giants, and Li Zetian now also has four major fishing giants. Come on, who is afraid of who! ! !
