"The fire in July does not mean the weather is hot, but refers to a bright star that will appear in the west of the night sky during this season.

This star is called Antares. It is located in the center of the constellation Scorpius. It is a red supergiant star. It is a first-class star in terms of brightness and is also the brightest star in the Scorpio star region.

This star is located due south at dusk in the fifth lunar month every year and is at its highest position. At dusk in the seventh lunar month, this star moves from due south to the west.

Therefore, there is a saying that "fire flows in July, clothes are given in September, summer passes and autumn comes, and the weather turns cooler."

While driving, Chen Tianxiong was educating his boss on science.

The two of them were driving to Galmu Airport on the Gargan Highway, preparing to take a flight to Siji City. Then Chen Lidong was going to Sanyou to talk to Dong Xuecheng.

Driving on the road, the hot air made the asphalt road surface shine, and Chen Lidong sighed: "July is like a fire..."

Then I was popularized by Chen Tianxiong.

It turns out that there is such a formal explanation for "Flowing Fire in July".

Chen Tianxiong has just returned from the base camp for further training. At this time, he is equivalent to a walking Baidu Encyclopedia. With him accompanying him, he is not lonely.

...

On the other side, Chen Haiyan and a tour group of classmates were also on National Highway 315, taking a rented minibus to the airport.

After meeting up with the second brother, he will take a private plane to Siji City. After the airport in Binhai County is completed, he can land at home.

The flights from Garmu to Jishi have been increased from once a week to twice, so it’s not impossible to wait.

The purpose of arranging to fly on a private jet this time was purely to satisfy the curiosity of Chen Haiyan’s classmates and to experience the feeling of being a wealthy person.

Chen Lidong could tell from the videos and pictures his sister sent to her scarf that Chen Haiyan had gained something from her visit to Garmu.

There were only 8 people in their classmate group, exactly 4 pairs of men and women. They went all the way from Binhai to Yanjing, passed through Mongolia Province and came to the west. They visited Wulianghai, Heishui Ancient City, and Chilechuan. They roasted whole sheep and ate cheese.

, learned the local dance.

Here in Garmu, we have seen the Chaerhan Salt Lake, crossed the Wanzhang Salt Bridge, climbed the foothills of Kunlun Mountain, and listened to the stories of the Eight Immortals of the South... We have been to both fun and not-so-fun places.

At Chen Lidong's suggestion, the tour group also visited the construction site of the Xinan-Tibet Railway, Xilian Iron and Steel, Modern Agricultural Park, and Salt Lake Group Chemical Plant, experiencing the shock of construction sites and modern factories in the northwest.

My sister posts several groups of scarves and letters to her circle of friends every day, and each group has dozens of white words underneath.

After traveling to the western part of the country, Chen Haiyan is also planning to take her classmates on a trip to Sam, Western Australia and the Arctic.

Chen Lidong is also happy that his sister's generation will gain more knowledge. "Reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles", knowing high and low is very helpful for growth and progress.

Chen Haiyan and her entourage were not ostentatious, but the things they posted online still attracted some criticism.

Someone commented:

"I was sweating profusely under the scorching sun, but I became the scenery in someone's lens."

"It is said that life can be regardless of high or low status, but some people are born to be young masters and young ladies..."

Chen Lidong scanned the comments under his scarf and pressed the cancel button.

He closed his cell phone and felt sleepy looking at the deserted beaches along the road. It was still more than two hours' drive to the airport, so he was ready to take a nap.

...

On another road, the minibus Chen Haiyan was riding passed Xiaochaidan Salt Lake, turned off National Highway 315, and drove south.

Chen Haiyan wanted to go on a casual trip and didn't want to bother anyone from the company accompanying her.

But when we arrived in Garmu, after Wu Ronghua found out about it, the office here still arranged the trip.

The original plan was to return yesterday, but because Chen Lidong had to meet with Ren Xueqiang this morning, the return time was postponed to the afternoon. Chen Haiyan and the others were not idle. After looking at the map, they decided to take a look at the natural gas drilling site near Dongtai.

It took a long time to work on it. On the way back, several people were very tired and fell into a half-asleep state.

Suddenly, the minibus slowed down and then braked to a stop. Chen Haiyan was sitting behind the driver. When she opened her eyes, she saw a Toyota Cruiser parked in the middle of the road. It seemed that something had broken down.

Two young men wearing sunglasses were standing in front of the minibus, and another one was standing next to the cab. They told the driver on the positive side that they were going to take the minibus back to the city.

The CMB driver said to the other party: "Sorry, our place is full, please wait for the ones behind you."

The young man said with a Beijing accent: "Brother, please, squeeze in. We are in a hurry to go back to the city and are waiting to catch a flight today."

The driver still wanted to refuse, but Chen Haiyan looked at the car's brand, then coughed and said: "Master Li, let them come up, we can also sit here."

As soon as the driver heard what the eldest lady said, he opened the car door angrily and said to the other party: "Come on."

The three young men moved to the right side of the car. The first young man came up and looked at the situation inside the car.

Then he looked at Chen Haiyan and asked, "Are you Chen Haiyan?"

Chen Haiyan was stunned: "Who are you?"

Suddenly, the man stepped forward, grabbed Chen Haiyan's arm, and pulled her up from her seat.

Chen Haiyan exclaimed: "What are you doing!"

At this time, another person also stepped forward, grabbed Chen Haiyan's other arm, and the two of them, one after the other, lifted Chen Haiyan up and got off the minibus, and then quickly got into the Cruiser.

Cruiser hit the accelerator and sped away, and then the CMB driver realized that Chen Haiyan had been kidnapped.

During these few days of traveling in the West, I would occasionally get hitchhikers, but the ride turned into a kidnapping. This change was too sudden.

Some of Chen Haiyan's other classmates in the car had just been awakened by Chen Haiyan's screams. As soon as they opened their eyes, Chen Haiyan was taken away.

Everyone in the car looked confused. The CMB driver quickly started the car and chased forward, shouting at the same time: "I think there is something wrong with that car, please call the police immediately."

...

While Chen Lidong was half asleep, his cell phone rang.

I took out my cell phone and saw that the caller was Sun Lijin.

After the call was connected, Sun Lijin cried on the phone and said: "Second brother, Haiyan has been kidnapped."

Chen Lidong was shocked: "What's going on? Speak slowly."

Sun Lijin rambled on about what had just happened, and Chen Lidong became furious.

Obviously, the other party blocked the road with premeditation and must have known where Chen Haiyan's minibus was going to pass.

How dare you kidnap someone in broad daylight? The security in the west is so bad?

After thinking about it again, Chen Lidong understood that these people were probably coming to the old Chen family.

Maybe they have been eyeing Chen Haiyan and his entourage for a long time, and only chose to take action when they were in the right position.

I don’t know if the other party wants money or is seeking revenge.

If you want money, it's easy, but if you want revenge, it's troublesome.

In the past few years, Donghua has risen and followed the normal path of setting up factories and engaging in industry. It has not bullied and dominated the market, so it should not cause trouble to anyone.

But things that can cut off people's financial paths are inevitable. Blue Star's resources are limited, and the market is only so big. If you are full, there will definitely be hungry people...

While Chen Lidong was thinking wildly in his head, he ordered Chen Tianxiong: "Tianxiong, drive quickly. Haiyan has been kidnapped. The location is a little south of Xiaochaidan and on the north side of the Salt Bridge. Let's rush there."

After a while, Sun Lijin called and told him: "The other party's car was too fast and we couldn't catch up. I wrote down the license plate number. It's a Yanjing brand. The number is..."

At this time, Chen Tianxiong had already stepped on the accelerator into the fuel tank, but this car was a GMC commercial vehicle provided by the Galmu Donghua Office. It was comfortable to sit in, drove smoothly, and seemed to have less power.

Chen Lidong hesitated for a moment and dialed Lu Jimin's number.

In the morning, the two of them talked on the phone about the issues of water storage in reservoirs and land reclamation for rice cultivation.

Lu Jimin is in favor of planting rice on a large scale, but he is not worried about affecting the ecological environment of the Narengrad River Basin. He is worried about whether the model of soaking fields with water and washing salt and draining alkali will excessively consume water resources.

He proposed an idea, that is, whether paddy field irrigation water can be recycled.

Lu Jimin thought that if 50,000 acres of rice could be cultivated, it would be able to meet the rice demand of 200,000 people in the city.

Moreover, Lu Jimin had long had the idea of ​​building a reservoir on the Narengrad River and an irrigation area downstream.

Although there is less precipitation in Garmu, there is no shortage of water. Counting the salt lakes here, you will know that the surface water in the Garmu area is very abundant.

There are more than 20 large and small rivers in the entire area, and the Lenggler River is the largest one.

As for the problem of damaging the ecological environment mentioned by Chen Lidong, it does not exist in Lu Jimin's eyes.

In the hearts of local people, the Lenggela River is the main culprit in destroying the environment.

Every year, snow water comes down from the foothills, and the pastures of herdsmen and repaired roads will be washed away, and when they reach the lower reaches, they will become swamps, which will not only swallow up cattle and sheep, but also trap people if they are not careful.

Further north, the swamps turn into salt-alkali land, and gradually no grass grows. The precious river water flows into the salt lake in vain, which is called a waste.

When Chen Lidong came to Karma for investigation, he mentioned building reservoirs and hydropower stations upstream to ensure industrial power.

Now steel plants and chemical plants have been built, but reservoirs and hydropower stations are still there.

Lu Jimin thought that if it didn't work out, he would use the city's finances to build it himself.

With the steel plant as a major taxpayer, the city's finances are already relatively well-off. The chemical plant will have an investment deduction period for another three years, and will contribute at least 300 million yuan to the city's finances every year.

But, wouldn’t it be even more profitable if we could dig something out of Chen Lidong?

Just when he was thinking about how to plot against Chen Lidong, Chen Lidong called.

Lu Jimin just wanted to ask Chen Lidong if he would leave later and discuss the reservoir in the evening.
