All-in-one Sign

Chapter 1008 Underground River

An old man with gray hair on his temples and wearing thick glasses came over after hearing this.

The dark skin and deep wrinkles on his forehead are the traces left by the years. Fortunately, although this old man is old, he is still energetic.

Xu Ang noticed that this man's hands were very rough, with obvious calluses in several places, and even several scars.

It can be seen that this is not a person sitting in an office sipping tea and holding a newspaper, but a front-line worker who often runs outdoors under the scorching sun.

Li Yanhong introduced Xu Ang: "Wang Ling, Professor Wang, is a geological expert. We spent a lot of effort to invite Professor Wang. Thanks to Professor Wang, otherwise we might not have been able to discover the mystery here so quickly."

He said this to be flattering, but Wang Ling did not follow his words to promote himself.

Just listen to Wang Ling say: "Mr. Li is too polite, please don't put gold on my boss's face. This is Xu Ang, hello, my name is Wang Ling, I found Mr. Li. Don't be surprised, I Mao Sui volunteered for the job because of my incompetent student. If I hadn't taught him well, I wouldn't have let him do what he did."

Xu Ang was puzzled at first, but Li Yanhong whispered a few words in his ear to clear up his doubts.

It turned out that the student Professor Wang Lingwang was talking about was the one who leaked the news about the iron ore veins beneath Xu Ang's farm in Tu'ao in order to obtain Tu'ao citizenship.

Although in reality, Xu Ang did not suffer any loss. He could transfer the iron ore vein away at any time with the props obtained by signing in, but only he knew that, and others did not.

Everyone thought that Xu Ang suffered heavy losses and was tricked by the guy who yearned to go abroad and wanted to become a foreigner. Wang Ling, who has been teaching and educating people all his life, never expected that when he got old, he would have such an unsuccessful student. He blamed himself and felt guilty. After finally hearing the news that a company called Du Niang invested by Xu Ang needed geological experts to work for them, Wang Ling came to the door immediately.

There is an old Chinese saying: It is the fault of the father who fails to teach, and it is the fault of the teacher who fails to teach strictly.

When the students did not do good things, Wang Ling, a teacher, took the responsibility very consciously.

Scholars like him can still be seen occasionally in this era, but they will become an endangered species in ten or twenty years.

Xu Ang was feeling emotional in his heart, but Xu Ang didn't show it on his face. He didn't say it was someone else's fault and it was none of your business as a teacher, nor did he insist on giving money.

This is not to say that Xu Ang wants to save the expert's labor fee, but he understands that for people like Wang Ling, if you ask for money in this matter, you are not respecting him, but insulting him.

Human Wang Ling is here for responsibility, and what he seeks is his inner peace of mind. It doesn't matter if you give him money.

If you really want to respect someone, let him give full play to his abilities.

Only by making Wang Ling feel that he had made a great contribution in this exploration could he make up for his inner guilt.

"Professor Wang, I have a favor for you this time."

Xu Ang invited everyone to sit down. There was not much else on the first floor of this three-story villa-style European-style wooden building. There was no shortage of space, seats and benches.

After everyone calmed down in the room and the warm air in the room dissipated the coldness on everyone's body, Xu Ang asked Li Yanhong again: "Senior, I received news from you before I came here, saying that a major discovery was made."

Xu Ang was full of expectations for Li Yanhong's discovery.

The treasure maps he signed in and now have never disappointed, either the oil field or the gold, guns and ammunition in the cellar.

Judging from previous cases, Xu Ang gained a lot from the treasure maps obtained by signing in.

Xu Ang thought it was best not to be an exception this time.

"It is indeed a major discovery." When talking about the discovery here, Li Yanhong's face was serious with unconcealable joy, "Based on the information we have detected so far, it is very likely that there is an underground river with abundant water here. Although in the end The results have not yet come out, but it can be deduced from the obtained data that it will probably not be bad. "

After saying that, Li Yanhong looked at Wang Ling again: "Thanks to Professor Wang. If it weren't for his rich experience, we really wouldn't be able to find him."

Li Yanhong's repeated praise of Wang Ling can only mean one thing, that is, this expert does have real skills, and he is the key figure to solve the mystery.

"Underground river!"

Xu Ang's heart moved.

Qinghai is a vast and sparsely populated place. Although there is such a large area for agriculture, it has never been able to grow. Isn't the reason why it is scarce water resources?

It is precisely because the water resources are far inferior to those in Bashu that Qinghai's agriculture has been unable to develop. Economically, it can only rely on natural resources such as minerals and iron to obtain income and maintain its own functions.

If an underground river can be found in such a place, as long as it is developed properly, it will have a significant impact on its economic development and industry.

Xu Ang was very happy to hear the news.

But what he had to admit was that an underground river, even if it had abundant water, could only help a province's agriculture to its limit. Not to mention that Xu Ang's annual check-in task is to increase one million acres of arable land. How can that amount be enough?

It is helpful for my annual check-in task, but not too helpful.

Although he thought so in his heart, Xu Ang was still smiling. The nature rooted in the Chinese soul makes him reluctant to see land abandoned, especially large tracts of land. When he sees such land, he will have the same idea as most Chinese people: always want to plant something.

"Very good, the harvest this time is not small."

Xu Ang smiled happily, and Li Yanhong and others also smiled when they saw it.

After working in this desolate place for so many days, everyone was very happy to have their results recognized.

Seeing that Xu Ang was satisfied, Li Yanhong knew that his efforts were not in vain.

He abandoned his company affairs in Peiping and came to Qinghai, thousands of miles away, and stayed in the desolate desert with few people for so many days. Wasn't it just to satisfy Xu Ang, the father of the funder?

Only when Xu Ang is satisfied can his position as Lao Li be secure.

Otherwise, for a company like Du Niang that is developing rapidly, there are countless eyes staring at the position of president. Even if Li Yanhong is the founder, he may not be able to stay.

When he was studying in the United States, Li Yanhong saw many cases where founders of foreign companies were kicked out by capital.

Steve, who staged the Return of the King at the fruit company with Xu Ang's help, could he do it without Xu Ang's support?

For the sake of career, it’s okay to hold on to your thighs, it’s not shabby.

Wang Ling coughed twice, attracting everyone's attention, and then said: "The specific data requires more in-depth observation. The information we currently know is not enough, and we need more. Mr. Li, I suggest you collect it after dawn I want Mr. Xu to take a look in person so that he can have an intuitive and clear idea. In addition, we still need equipment here. "

Science is rigorous, and the final result has not yet come out. No matter how likely it is or how high the probability is, it cannot be done accurately.

Scholars of the older generation like Wang Ling are very strict in their work and will not allow words like "maybe, maybe, should be" to appear in their final report.

When he said this, Li Yanhong made a helpless expression at Xu Ang.

Professor Wang is good at everything, but his lack of flexibility gives him a headache.

If only you weren't so rigid and if you were more diplomatic, with your reputation as Wang Ling in the world, you wouldn't be just a professor.

Everyone is in a good atmosphere, but you have to say something to ruin the scenery. It really makes people wonder what to say about you.

Li Yanhong was a little worried that Xu Ang would be unhappy if Wang Ling made the atmosphere awkward, but the facts proved that his worries were unnecessary.

Xu Ang was not dissatisfied at all, but said in agreement: "Indeed, insufficient data can easily make the results one-sided, and one-sidedness often means bias and unreliability. We should not be rash in this matter until the end." The conclusion is that we can wait for the equipment to arrive before taking action.”

Wang Ling said in surprise: "What do you mean, you have already ordered the equipment?"

"Didn't you tell the senior about the equipment you need? He told me and I bought it before I came here. I even went to District 11 before coming to Qinghai for these equipment. Some of the kid's gadgets are indeed unique. There is still a way to go for the country to catch up and surpass.”

"Now that we have the equipment, it will be a good feeling."

When Wang Ling heard that Xu Ang had brought the equipment he needed, his eyes immediately lit up. Seeing that he was about to walk out of the house, Xu Ang quickly stopped him: "Professor Wang, don't worry, those equipment will not arrive until daytime. After all, they are precision instruments and cannot withstand too many bumps. The transportation procedures are very troublesome."

The more sophisticated something is, the easier it is to break, while those stupid, bulky things last longer and are more durable.

It takes a lot of effort to protect precision instruments from damage during transportation, and this back and forth will delay a lot of time. Xu Ang estimated that it would take three or four hours before they were shipped from the airport.

Fortunately, Xu Ang has a White Whale, which can really be installed, otherwise it wouldn't be so convenient.

"We have to wait until daylight."

Wang Ling's face showed disappointment.

"It's only a few hours. You can't even wait for this. I don't see that you are always impatient."

Having become familiar with Wang Ling these days, Li Yanhong teased him.

The old professor was not angry at being teased like this. He just found a chair and sat down on his own, and began to close his eyes and meditate.

Since the equipment would arrive during the day, he would not waste his energy.

Seventy years of life are rare. After all, Wang Ling is old and cannot compare to a young man like Xu Ang.

"Hey, you are no longer the young man who stayed up all night and washed your face the next morning and was still energetic."

Wang Ling felt inspired.

Time is not forgiving, time is the cruelest thing, and it is also the fairest thing.

No one can escape the ravages of time, and no one can be immune to its influence. All young people with spirit will eventually grow old one day.

Of course, there are also many people who can’t wait to get off the train halfway.

Seeing that Wang Ling didn't want to talk much, Li Yanhong motioned for others to explain. In fact, if he hadn't been a professional and couldn't explain it in detail and missed the key points on many knowledge points, Li Yanhong would have learned it on his own.

It's a rare opportunity to show off in front of the sponsor's father. Failing to seize it and not seizing it are two different things.

Xu Ang didn't care who introduced the situation to him, as long as he could understand the progress of the matter and the specific situation in the shortest possible time.

After spending an hour understanding the situation, Xu Ang had a clear outline of the matter.

He walked to the window, pointed in the direction of a camp consisting of more than a dozen tents next to a small wooden building, and asked, "Is that rocky mountain behind the camp the entrance?"

"Yes." Li Yanhong replied, "According to our exploration results, the entrance to the underground river is within this mountain."

"It doesn't look like anything special either."

With the help of the faint moon and the lights in the camp, Xu Ang observed the nearly 100-meter-high stone mountain.

It is indeed an exaggeration to say it is a mountain, at most it is just a hill.

It's just that this hill is completely bare. Without soil cover, he looks like a middle-aged programmer's head - bald.

There was no grass growing on the entire stone mountain, just like a large stone with an exaggerated size, it was completely bare. The surface of the stone mountain has experienced countless years of wind and rain, and has become pitted and wrinkled, making it even more unflattering than the pockmarked face of an eighty or ninety year old.

If we only looked at it from the surface, no one would have thought that there would be an underground river under this stone mountain.

In people's minds, the existence of water sources is associated with moisture, moss, and lush vegetation.

Only in dry places without water will there be no grass.

Obviously, the rocky mountain behind the camp fits the latter's image very well. It's no wonder that the underground river beneath it has not been discovered for so many years.

"I'll see for myself when daylight comes."

With that said, Xu Ang said to Li Yanhong: "Thank you for your hard work, senior. You should rest first. We will talk about it again when it gets daylight."

"OK."

Li Yanhong was not pretentious. He didn't insist on saying that he was fine. He agreed immediately.

There is still a tough battle to be fought during the day. If you don’t rest now, how will you have the energy to do anything then?

If lack of sleep causes your own evaluation to be reduced, then it's not worth it.

Things have priorities, and Li Yanhong knows the priorities clearly, and he is not in a hurry to show off.

Xu Ang is already here anyway, and there will be plenty of opportunities for him to show off in the next period of time. Being too eager will be bad.

"Senior and Professor Wang, you can sleep in this small building. I brought two small wooden buildings. The rooms are completely sufficient."

After giving the instructions, Xu Ang went to another small wooden building.

It was where he and his family rested.

Opening the door, a warm breeze that was obviously different from the cold outside blew in, making people feel uncomfortable. Before Xu Angren walked in, a small figure jumped over to him with laughter.

If not Xiaoxiao, who could the owner of this small body be?

During the day, the little sister fell asleep on the plane. When she got off the plane, she didn't wake up and was carried to the car again to continue sleeping.

I slept for most of the day, and it's great now. It's late at night, people are quiet, the little sister is awake, and they are full of energy again.

However, adults like Fang Shuying have been tired from traveling all day and have no energy to bother at this moment. The adults' eyelids were fighting and they wanted to go to bed, but only Xu Ang could accompany them.
