s: The power of the gas turbine in the previous chapter is wrong.
It should be 20 megawatts.
I remembered the data incorrectly.
I can’t afford it for a layman.
In addition, book friend "Silent Lion Head" produced a new map for this book after May 1920.
Interested book friends can go to Tieba to see it.
The title of the post is "The Great Reversal of the World Situation in 1906".
August 9, 1921, AD 2762, Zhulong Islands, Beiming County.
Beiming County is currently the northernmost territory of China, and the Zhulong Islands, formerly known as the New Siberian Islands, is the northernmost part of Beiming County.
It is located in the Arctic Ocean waters north of East Siberia, with a latitude of about 73 degrees to the south and 77 degrees to the north.
It belongs to the Arctic Circle.
Well, here’s a little introduction.
The predecessor of “county” is “Special District under the Central Government”, which is mainly used for new territories with sparse population and remote locations, such as the “Special District under the Central Government of the Pacific” of the former German Pacific Colony.
The "Gulf Central Directly Administered Special Zone" south of the Persian Gulf and so on.
Later, everyone felt that the name "Special Region directly under the Central Government" was too long and inconvenient to write and pronounce.
Many people suggested that the government change the name to a concise and nice name.
Therefore, the government complied with public opinion and after extensively soliciting public opinions, resurrected the ancient administrative unit name "county".
Starting from January 1 this year, the former "special area directly under the central government" was officially replaced by "county".
It also formally defined the nature of "county", which is a sub-provincial administrative unit, suitable for territories with large jurisdictions or remote locations, sparsely populated jurisdictions, or other territories that are larger than cities but not suitable for setting up provinces.
There are currently six mainland counties and five island counties that are set as "counties".
There are four of the five island counties in the Pacific: Nanhai County, whose capital is Wansheng Natuna; Central Pacific County, whose capital is Guam; South Pacific County, whose capital is Yunshan Truk; and East Pacific County, whose capital is Honghuasuva.
A region in the Indian Ocean, with the capital being Sidi Diego Garcia.
Among the six mainland counties, except for the Gulf County in the Middle East and the Red Sea County spanning both sides of the Red Sea, the other four are all in Eastern Siberia.
From east to west, they are Chukotka and Kamchatka in the far east, the Kuril Islands, and Xingbei Haba.
Four counties include the northern part of the Rovsk Krai and Magadan, the part east of the Lena River in the Republic of Yakutia, the part east of the Kotuy River in Anbei and the part west of the Lena River in the Republic of Yakutia.
The Zhulong Islands are the northernmost territory of China.
The climate here is very cold.
The average temperature in January is between 28 and 31 degrees.
Even in July, the hottest month, the highest temperature is only 8 to 11 degrees, and the lowest temperature is even 3 degrees."
"Flying snow in June" is not a thing here at all.
Because the environment is so harsh, there are very few residents.
When China took back the area and conducted a census, less than 100 indigenous people were found on this archipelago covering an area of 38,600 square kilometers.
They were all Inuit Eskimos and lived by hunting and fishing.
According to the plan of "merging villages into villages", this kind of area is the target of "closing down and transferring".
This group of indigenous Inuit people were transferred to the mainland and divided into several small families.
Inside a new village.
Not only the Zhulong Islands, but the entire Siberian region belonging to China, and even the indigenous people in all new territories of China were resettled according to this method, and were treated equally with the mainland.
Many of their original settlements were extremely unscientific, too remote, and too scattered, making them neither easy to manage nor easy to build, so villages had to be merged into villages.
Bonaventure's Science and Socialist Party government has always been like this.
All policies are based on the principles of fairness, justice, modernization, science, and standardization.
There has never been the Madonna sentiment of deliberately "respecting the traditional customs of ethnic minorities" and "preferring preferential treatment to ethnic minorities", nor the petty bourgeoisie sentiment of "appreciating the original customs" and "preserving the customs and tastes".
Therefore, in China on this plane, there is no such natural village anymore.
Except in some specific folk museums, the so-called "original foreign ethnic customs" cannot be seen in normal settlements.
Because in Mr.
Wen's opinion, the idea of letting others live outside the civilized world in order to satisfy his own shallow curiosity is very immoral and disrespectful to others.

Of course, if they like to practice being primitive and use the most primitive methods to fish and hunt, that is their freedom, but please do not prevent others from entering the civilized world.
As for the development of "folk tourism", Wen always has no interest at all.
In his opinion, that kind of behavior is similar to visiting humans as birds and beasts, which is the real disrespect for people.
Of course, if someone voluntarily treats someone as an animal, that is their freedom, but the government will never support or encourage it.
The Candle Dragon Islands now have no indigenous people, but they are not without people.
The archipelago is an important area in the Arctic Ocean, is of great significance to the development of the Northern Sea Route, and has important military and scientific value.
After China obtained this place, it began to build military bases, airports, ports, lighthouses, radar stations and other facilities on the Zhulong Islands, as well as Arctic hydrological stations, meteorological stations, Arctic observation stations and other scientific research institutions.
In addition, another important role here is to provide resources to the mainland.
Currently, there are about 1,000 people on the Zhulong Islands, most of whom are staff of China Mining Group and Beiming Ocean Fishery Company.
On the largest Zhulong Island, a group of Chinese mining employees were busy in a mine.
Candelon Island, formerly known as Kotelny Island, is the largest island in the archipelago, covering an area of 11,665 square kilometers.
They drove an excavator to dig out the rocks directly from the ground, put them into ore trucks, and then sent them to the nearby ore processing field for mineral processing.
But unlike the mechanical mineral processing that has become popular in the country, their current mineral processing is still mainly manual.
Of course, it's not that kind of artificial mineral processing.
I saw the mineral processing workers sitting on a conveyor belt.
They wore strange-shaped hoods that covered both eyes.
The two eyes were covered with light blue glass covers.
Inside There are many small dots that look like the compound eyes of insects.
There is a headlamp-like device on the forehead, and there is a line trailing to the waist, connected to a metal box.
Another batch of preliminarily crushed ore was delivered to the concentrators from the conveyor belt.
At this time, they pressed the button of the metal box on their waists, and the indicator light on the hood began to flash, and the "headlight" emitted a purple mist.
Light, and then the workers began to select skillfully.
Based on the reaction in the eyepiece, they picked out the ore that met the requirements and threw it into the bucket at their feet.
Finally, they pick the remaining ore and send it to the ore crusher through the conveyor belt, and then the real mechanized mineral processing begins.
The final concentrate they obtained is a silvery white or dark gray stone with a metallic color.
Most of it is an irregular granular or scaly aggregate, and a few are aggregated into irregular large blocks. .
The big ones are about the size of eggs, and the small ones are about the same size as melon seeds.
An inspector picked up a finger-sized piece of ore from the delivered bucket, looked at it with a magnifying glass, and then weighed it on the hydrometer next to it.
He said with satisfaction: "The content of this piece is at least 70%, which can be regarded as a natural platinum nugget.
This kind of high-purity natural platinum mine is quite rare.
I didn't expect that there are so many on this island."
Yes, they are mining platinum ore, and it is a very precious natural platinum ore.
It is not the kind of platinum ore that exists as a compound, but a rare mine that is directly formed in the metallic state.
This is of course not because they cannot afford machines or have no machines to use.
China Mining Group is not short of this.
But this kind of natural platinum ore itself is very pure and can be sent directly to the factory for smelting, so there is no need to go through those processes.
In addition, it has high collection value and research value.
If it is crushed and then beneficiated like an ordinary mining site, it will be uneconomical.
A complete piece of natural platinum is much more valuable than crushed platinum.
Besides, although they appear to be artificially beneficiating minerals, the "spectral reflection mineral separation mirror" they use is a truly high-tech product, the only one of its kind in the world.
This is an instrument that uses the principle of spectrum to select minerals.
Purple light shines on the ore, and different metals have different reflection spectra.
The result is directly reflected on the eyepiece of the hood.
They adjusted the display of the reflected light of platinum group metals in the eyepiece to red in advance, so that it was clear at a glance when selecting minerals, which was very convenient.
They manually selected large pieces of natural platinum with a platinum content of more than 40%.

In addition to platinum, these natural platinums also contain platinum group metals such as palladium, iridium, and rhodium.
The other main component is iron.
The content of this piece of platinum ore is extremely astonishing.
Even if they pick out the remaining ores and send them for crushing, the platinum content will still be around 20%.
The on-site manager also picked up a piece of extremely pure natural platinum and looked at it.
He said with emotion: "It's incredible that there is such a mine in the world.
I think this mine is only considered platinum, which has at least three to five thousand tons."
Bar"
"It's probably more than that.
What we're mining now is just the ground.
There must be veins underneath a natural platinum mine like this," an engineer said with a smile.
"It's a good thing that this place is deserted.
If this kind of treasure land had disappeared long ago, where would it be for us?
We in China are most short of platinum ore, and this kind of thing is a rare metal.
The reserves in the world are not high.
Even if you want to import it, you can't import it."
We can’t import much, but now that we have this big mine, we can finally breathe a sigh of relief.”
"However, the conditions here are too harsh, and it is difficult to mine the underground veins."
The site manager thought for a moment and said, "I estimate that when we finish mining the surface minerals, the underground part will be suspended."
The engineer nodded: "That's right.
Anyway, there are so many mines on the surface that we can use for a long time.
The underground part will wait until the Arctic Railway is repaired in the future.
The cost of mining is too high now."
The inspector next to him also said: "Yes, there are so many good things in this place, but the environment is so annoying.
It's dark for half a year, so what can you do in the dark?"
"That's right, apart from the extreme day and night, coupled with the ice and snow, this place can only be used for half a year at most."
The on-site manager was also very reluctant.
"We will work until October at most, and then we will go back.
There is still more than a month left, so everyone should work hard."
After the autumnal equinox, the place will enter a long polar night, and the temperature will drop below minus 10 degrees.
At that time It won't be easy to work.
Before the polar night, staff from various companies here will withdraw to the mainland and wait until after April next year.
In a valley not far from Zhongkuang's platinum mine, a group of people were squatting on the ground and busy.
Most of them were young people who looked like college students, and there were a few soldiers with guns nearby, watching the surroundings with vigilance.
"Angkor, we are just collecting some samples.
You don't need to be so nervous.
The world war has stopped."
A young man who looked like a student was talking to a soldier.
The soldier rolled his eyes and said: "You are right, the world war has indeed stopped now.
You know, I know, but the polar bears don't know."
"Wow, there are polar bears here."
The college student was frightened.
Soldier "Of course there is.
We just killed one the day before you came.
Otherwise, why do you think our commander asked us to come here?

Isn't it because we are afraid that you will encounter a bear?"
The soldier looked at the students and smiled evilly: "Like With your body, if you meet a white bear, you will be useless with just one slap."
"Yes, there are not only white bears here, but also wolves and walruses.
They are all dangerous creatures."
Another soldier also came over to scare people with his comrades.
Within a few words, the college students were frightened and fled.
"It's unimaginable that there is such high-quality coal in a place like this."
A middle-aged man looked at the specimen in his hand with a look of joy on his face.
"High-volatile bituminous coal is rare in the world."
Another colleague came over and said to him excitedly: "Professor Wang, we just tested the sample, and its average calorific value exceeds 12,000 joules per kilogram.
The sulfur content is below 0.1, the ash content is below 8, and the water content is below 5.
It is almost complete.
The cleanest coal in the world, with extremely high steam and coking quality, can be directly used as energy and industrial raw materials.
It is incredible that there are 20 billion tons of this high-quality coal on this island.”
Professor Wang nodded repeatedly: "Yes, this is a polar treasure that has been hidden in ice for hundreds of millions of years.
The resources on Zhulong Island are just the tip of the iceberg.
People from Tsinghua went to the far east to investigate and discovered a super Large coal mines from the coast of Chukotka Extending to the east 480 kilometers inland, it is the most concentrated and contiguous coal field in the world.
The coal reserves are almost equivalent to the total coal resources of 30 provinces in mainland China.
There is also a super large iron mine there with reserves of 30 billion tons.”
"I heard that people from Nanda also found a large oil field in Beiming, with an estimated capacity of 9 billion tons."
My colleague thought for a while and said regretfully: "These places are really difficult to develop, and now there are high-value platinum mines."
Rare minerals are worth mining.
Coal mines and iron ores, which are used in large quantities, may be difficult to use at present because the cost is too high. " “Just wait until the Arctic railway is repaired” "But now the country needs to build too many places, and the Arctic region is very low in priority."
The two were chatting when a student ran over: "Professor Wang, doesn't the textbook say that oil and coal are produced by the accumulation of carbonized carcasses of trees and animals?
So where do the oil and coal resources in the Arctic come from?
There aren’t many flora and fauna here.”
Professor Wang said: "Oh, this is about continental drift.
Hundreds of millions of years ago, it was not so cold here."
At this time, a sergeant came over to remind them: "Professor Wang, Professor Li, it's getting late, it's time to go back."
Professor Wang looked at his watch: "Oh, it's almost 7 o'clock.
It's really hard to keep track of time in this extreme daylight season."
After a while, the expedition team packed up their things, got on several military vehicles and returned to the camp.
These teachers and students are from Huazhong University, and they are conducting fieldwork here.
Field expeditions like this are organized by science and engineering universities across the country.
Anyone whose major involves the natural world must conduct field expeditions.
Even those majoring in liberal arts and social sciences have a lot of social practice assignments.
Wen Desi did not want to cultivate a group of otakus and otakus who were indifferent to all kinds of things.
Chinese college students in this period are not as fun as their counterparts in the original time and space.
They have a large number of off-campus tasks every winter and summer vacation, various internships, inspections and practical tasks, and their schedules are fully scheduled to ensure that they do not Will feel bored.
This is also because China’s foundation is still too thin.
Even with the various golden fingers brought by Wen Desi, there are still too many things that need to be made up for.
Although cyborgs are easy to use, such a large country cannot be sustained by cyborgs alone.
How can we achieve the great rejuvenation of China if we do not work hard to cultivate indigenous talents from this time and space?
More than 20 minutes later, they returned to the camp.
Because there are no towns or villages here, the local military camps have become a landing place for temporary personnel.

The local garrison also specially set aside a barracks to accommodate these temporary foreigners.
There was a strong aroma of food floating in the cafeteria.
The college students who had been busy for a day in the field were all hungry.
When they smelled this smell, their mouths almost watered.
A college student couldn't help but asked the soldier next to him: "What's good to eat today?"
The soldier smiled and said: "The fishery company sent a lot of Arctic salmon, Arctic cuttlefish, butterfly fish and capelin this morning, as well as chickens and rabbits raised by our base breeding farm, as well as vegetables and mushrooms grown in the greenhouse. " "Wow, that's great.
There are greenhouses and breeding farms here.
Aren't you in the military?"
the college student asked curiously.
The soldier said disapprovingly: "Of course we are an army, but our army also needs to eat.
We have greenhouses and breeding farms in almost every camp.
This is a tradition.
Not to mention our army, even the navy's warships have them Growing vegetables.
Our political commissar said that this reduces the pressure on logistics and can also improve life.”
Of course, according to someone's original words, this is how the army of my big foodie empire should be
