Happy Tycoon

Midway Inn is a very interesting inn. This inn is also the one with the most foreign travel friends, and it is very famous among foreign travel friends.

There is a balcony named "Shuang Di You", and a toilet that is recognized as "the world's first toilet".

Midway Inn is located in the local bay. His guest room faces the Yulong Snow Mountain. Open the doors and windows and you can see the Jade Dragon Thirteen Peaks within reach. If you are full at night, you can enjoy drinking and chatting on the balcony of "Shooting You", and it is very pleasant to watch the starry sky.

It is worth mentioning that the owner of this inn is very fluent in English, and Yang Jing can communicate with him in English without difficulty. And there are really many foreign travel friends in this inn, and it's so lively.

As for the scary "No. 1 toilet in the world" in this inn, that's not just casual talk. Whose toilet can face the Yulong Snow Mountain?

At the entrance of the public toilet, two wooden signs were hung, one of which reads "Pull Shit under the east window, and see Yulong leisurely." Below is "the world's first toilet", and the signature is "Xia Ke Xing".

On the other wooden sign, "The World's First Toilet" and "Recognized in the World" were written in fonts, which made people laugh.

Grid was the first to discover this world's first toilet. In the evening, after Yang Jing and the others had finished eating, Grid went to the toilet and found this very breathy toilet. Then, Yang Jing and the others all experienced the style of this "world's first toilet" one after another-they were all smelly. , Because it’s the world’s first toilet, it won’t make you odorless when shit...

The rain stopped the next day, but the weather was still not sunny, but the visibility was quite high. This kind of day without the scorching sun is most suitable for hiking.

Walking on the small road dug out of the cliff in Zhonghu Jump, climbing over the iron ladder that is tens of meters high and almost straight up and down, condescending to admire the Jinsha River hundreds of meters below, and overlooking the towering vicissitudes of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. , It really makes people have an impulse to be unable to control themselves.

Shouting to the sky and Dajiang suddenly, venting the impulse in my heart, it will feel particularly refreshing.

At noon, the four of them did not go to the inn for dinner, but sat in a condescending place, looking at the invincible scenery, eating the food they brought, and sipping beer in small sips. It felt really refreshing. .

"The scenery here is really good. If you hadn't come here in person, you would have never imagined such a beautiful scenery." Grid sighed, and Yang Jing and Sun Aoran nodded one after another.

Sun Aoran said: "I never thought that there would be such an outstanding place so close to me. If I knew this place is so beautiful, I should have come to see it a long time ago."

Zhao Shuang shook his head and said, "You only see the beauty here. Did you know that this famous Grand Canyon is now facing the cruel prospect of disappearing?"

"Disappeared?" Grid looked at Zhao Shuang in surprise, "Is it an earthquake?"

Sun Aoran also said: "I know that if you go further down, you can see the famous Gaoxia Outing Pinghu scenery. It seems that during the Lijiang Earthquake in 1999, the Haba Snow Mountain collapsed, forming a place there. The barrier lake also formed an excellent scenery. But the earthquake of that year did not destroy the Tiger Leaping Gorge. I really can’t think of anything else that can make the Tiger Leaping Gorge disappear. Unless it really happened here. Earthquakes with a magnitude of 8.0 or higher. But it’s better not to do that. Those kinds of earthquakes are too scary."

Zhao Shuang glanced at her boyfriend and said, "Can only an earthquake destroy the Tiger Leaping Gorge? Oran, don't forget what we are doing now."

Sun Aoran was taken aback, and then asked with an incredible expression: "You mean a hydroelectric power station?"

Zhao Shuang nodded, "Yes, the hydropower station almost destroyed the Tiger Leaping Gorge."

After a pause, Zhao Shuang said quietly: “In fact, there was a series of incidents related to the construction of the Tiger Leaping Gorge Dam. When I was young and I was in elementary school, there was news that someone wanted to build a dam in the Jinanqiao generation of Yongsheng."..

Sun Aoran patted his forehead and asked in surprise: "Jin'anqiao? Isn't that not far from our construction site?"

Zhao Shuang nodded in agreement, “I don’t know where the news came from at the beginning of the last century, saying that the country has confirmed that the Tiger Leaping Gorge Water Conservancy Project has been listed as one of the country’s recent major development projects, and said Tiger Leaping Gorge. The height difference is as high as 9 meters, which is an ideal hydropower base. Starting from the first gulf of the Yangtze River, to the mouth of the Yabi River in Panzhihua, the Jinsha River, which is more than 50 kilometers away, has a drop of up to 838 meters and can be built into'one library with eight levels'. Cascade hydropower stations."

When Sun Aoran heard this, his brows immediately frowned. As an electrician, Zhao Shuang said this, and he immediately realized that although this plan was good, it would have done a lot of damage to the environment.

Sure enough, Zhao Shuang went on to say: "In those days, our country developed faster and faster, and the demand for energy was also higher and higher. Due to the low operating cost, fast income, and high return of hydropower, it soon became popular among major banks. It is also the strategy of China’s major state-owned power companies to seize the sphere of influence. Among them, the Tiger Leaping Gorge, which has natural excellent geographical conditions, has naturally become the first choice of major state-owned power companies."

"Among these, the private power crocodile Yanjing Huarui Group from Yanjing has set its sights on Jin'anqiao. According to the design of Huarui Group, construction of the Jin'anqiao Dam started in 2002 and the Jinsha River was closed in 2005. In those few years, Lijiang’s fiscal revenue was only about 200 million yuan a year, and if the Jin’anqiao Hydropower Station is repaired, this hydropower station alone will increase Lijiang’s net revenue by 400 million yuan a year! So at that time, the Lijiang Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government were enthusiastic. Welcome and attach great importance to the Jin'anqiao Hydropower Project of Huarui Group, as the number one project, giving the green light to this project from top to bottom."

"The fact is that the fifth-level hydropower station in this planned'one library eight levels' has not been approved by the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the National Development and Reform Commission at all. Even after the Jinanqiao Dam broke ground, the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Environmental Protection The talent was shocked that this project with an investment of more than 10 billion yuan was not approved by the relevant departments."

"Our local residents are fighting against the construction of the dam. Although the construction of the Jin'anqiao Dam has little impact on the Tiger Leaping Gorge, who can guarantee that once the fifth-level dam is built, it will still Will anyone continue to covet the Tiger Leaping Gorge upstream of Jin'an Bridge?"

After a pause, Zhao Shuang continued: "After the resistance of our locals, and the Jinanqiao Dam is indeed an illegal project, this project has been delayed for several years. But unfortunately, our resistance is in front of the capital. So weak, the dam finally passed the national approval and officially operated. But fortunately, the Jin'an Bridge is still some distance away from the Tiger Leaping Gorge. The construction of the Jin'an Bridge Dam did not cause a catastrophic blow to the Tiger Leaping Gorge. "

"However, the successful construction of the Jin'anqiao Dam has also shown benefits to those power groups. Now, near Xiazhari, downstream of Xiahutiao, the construction of the fourth-level dam of the'One Reservoir and Eighth Level' is about to begin. We don’t know how the Jin’anqiao Dam in the lower reaches will affect the Tiger Leaping Gorge upstream and even the first gulf of the Yangtze River once the dam is completed.”

"But according to estimates, if this dam is built, at least the water level of the river within 200 kilometers upstream of the Tiger Leaping Gorge will rise sharply. By then, 200,000 mu of high-quality arable land will be submerged, and 100,000 people will face As for the situation of being relocated. As for the Tiger Leaping Gorge, it is probably impossible to preserve the current spectacular scenery. By then, it will become a huge reservoir!"

Grid was also a little anxious when he heard this, "Then the country has the heart to let the Tiger Leaping Gorge and the First Bay of the Yangtze River disappear under the water like this? Why does the country want this to happen?"

Zhao Shuang smiled bitterly and shook his head and said, "It's still uncertain, but we locals have been fighting against it, but we don't know what the result will be. So, since you are here today, let's take a look here. , Maybe when you come here a few years later, you will never see the scenery again."

Several people fell silent.

What Zhao Shuang said is true, even now the dam under construction in the lower reaches of Tiger Leaping Gorge can be clearly seen from the satellite map. No one knows what will happen after this dam is actually built.

Alas, when is this, the country doesn't seem to be short on this energy, right? How can such a dam that destroys the ecological environment be allowed to be built here?

A Three Gorges dam has already made the Three Gorges no longer have the scenery of the past~www.readwn.com~ The series of hydropower stations on the Nu River have also forcibly turned the Nu River into a series of pearls. Isn't this a lesson?

This sudden topic made a few people feel a little heavy, and they didn't even have much interest in playing.

It's not that the dam can't be built. The most important thing is that when the dam is built, will it cause a devastating blow to the local ecology? Will this world-famous tourist destination disappear completely?

While building the dam to develop the economy, it would be best if the safety and health of the local characteristic scenery can be ensured. There should be a way to get the best of both worlds, but this is not what the four of them can control.

Although the visit to Tiger Leaping Gorge shocked Yang Jing and the others, the unexpected topic on the last day made the trip more or less burdened.

After leaving Sun Aoran and Zhao Shuang, Yang Jing and Gege drove back to Spring City. The two of them came out to play this trip for a week, and now it's time to go back and prepare for the engagement...
