Rebirth 1975: Tore up the call-back order at the beginning

Border town. Sea town!

When Zhou Yang and others arrived here, it was already the afternoon of July 7th.

Although the journey from Qingcheng to this small city on the border between China and Mongolia was less than [-] kilometers, it took Zhou Yang and others more than two days.

The main reason is that the road is really too difficult to walk, especially the more than 300 kilometers after Lucheng, which can be completed in four to five hours normally, but Zhou Yang and others walked for a day and a half.

It's okay to walk hard, the most speechless thing is the bumps along the way.

The young fighters are better, their physical fitness is there, and Renren will pass, at most, they will have backaches when they sleep at night.

But Professor Wulianghan Taugtehu, who was invited from the provincial capital, was almost 60 years old, how could he stand up to such a bumpy ride, and he collapsed from exhaustion as soon as he arrived in Haizhen.

Fortunately, the old professor has been running around looking for ore in the wild all year round, and his physical fitness is still good. He just feels a little tired and has no other discomfort. If it were someone else, he would have been useless.

Haizhen. Government guest house!

In the simple room, Zhou Yang was lying on the long table studying the map.

And on the bed next to the small table, the tired old Professor Tao looked at Zhou Yang curiously while drinking the Mongolian milk tea provided by the guest house.

Some time ago, he had been taking his students to explore the mines in Wucheng. After working hard for more than a month, he finally returned to Qingcheng and was about to take a good rest for a few days.

As a result, as soon as he returned to the Geological Bureau, before his butt was hot, the provincial phone call went directly to his office, asking him to accompany a major military leader to the northwest.

Old Professor Tao didn't dare to be negligent, and immediately summoned the students again, preparing to follow the mysterious leader.

But what they never expected was that the big leader the province called would be such a young man.

In the ensuing chat, he found out that the other party's destination this time turned out to be Wuzhong Banner, a small border town, and the reason for calling them here was to help find ore, and it was a gold mine!

Seeing that Zhou Yang had been lying there for more than an hour, Old Professor Tao couldn't help asking, "Comrade Xiao Zhou, haven't you found him yet?"

Zhou Yang shook his head and said, "No, I've looked through the map twice, but I didn't see that place, it's really strange!"

Old Professor Tao immediately said: "It's not surprising that you can't find it. This may be a problem with the map. You must know that many of the maps we use now are actually not very accurate, and some are even surveyed and mapped before the founding of the People's Republic of China!"

"Some uninhabited or famous places will not be shown on the map, and some places will be hidden from the map for special reasons. You can see if this is the case in the place you are looking for !"

Zhou Yang thought for a while and said, "The place I'm looking for is indeed an uninhabited no-man's land!"

"That's right, this kind of place is probably not included in the map, and it's normal if you can't find it on the map!"

"Then...then what should we do?" Zhou Yang frowned.

"There are generally two solutions to this situation. The first is to find the local government and ask them to help find some old local maps. There may be some new clues."

Then Professor Tao said again: "The second way is to ask the local old people. Many of them have lived in the local area since they were young. They are the living maps of the local area. Maybe they know the place to look for!"

"Well, you are old and experienced!" Zhou Yang said with a smile.

Old Professor Tao smiled and said: "Comrade Xiao Zhou, I have been to Wuzhong Banner five or six times. I have traveled all over the mountains and rivers here to find mines. There is coal, iron and copper here, but only How could you think of looking for gold mines here without the geological conditions to produce gold?"

Zhou Yang immediately raised his head and said, "It's like this. A friend of mine gave me some different stones before, and they were all picked up when he went out to play and investigate. When I was sorting out these stones a while ago, I found that one of them turned out to be Gold ore with a high gold content!"

"After learning the details of this ore, I think there should be a large gold mine near the place where the ore is produced, and it may be that kind of shallow gold mine or open-pit gold mine, so I plan to come here to try my luck! "

Professor Tao didn't know that Zhou Yang was "making friends out of nothing", and he was interested in seeing his sincerity, so he hurriedly asked, "Where is that piece of gold ore, did you bring it with you?"

"No, I have someone send that piece of ore to the capital for further testing!" Zhou Yang said.

"Pity..."

Then Professor Tao said again: "If it is really high-quality gold ore, then there is a very high possibility that there are gold veins nearby. If you really find it, it is indeed a good thing!"

"Unfortunately, I didn't find that place on the map!" Zhou Yang said helplessly.

"Do you know the general direction of that place? Is there a name?" Professor Tao asked.

"It should be in the northeast of Haizhen. I heard it is called Changshanhao. There are mountains nearby, but they are not very high!"

"Long Shanhao?"

Then Professor Tao frowned and thought for a while, and then said: "I know there are Wulanhao, Wushanhao, Baishanhao, Wulahao and Zhangsanhao, but I don't know there is such a Changshanhao. !"

"Maybe this place is too remote, it's normal that you don't know about it!" Zhou Yang said.

"Well, Comrade Xiao Zhou, are you sure that place is called Chang Shan Hao?"

Then Professor Tao said again: "I have no other meaning, mainly because the place names of this place are very similar, and many of them are translated from Mongolian transliteration, which is easy to confuse!"

Zhou Yang nodded and said, "Professor Tao, I'm pretty sure that place is called Changshanhao!"

Although Zhou Yang has never been to this Changshanhao, he knows that there are gold mines there.

In his previous life, when he was in charge of the Air and Sky Eye Project, he planned to build a radar monitoring station in the border area. After internal research and evaluation, he decided to build this monitoring station in the no-man's land in the northeast of Wuzhong Banner (county-level administrative region) .

But I didn't expect that after the report was typed up, it was rejected by the superior on the grounds that there was a large open-pit gold mine in that place, which was not suitable for building a radar monitoring station.

After hearing the news, Zhou Yang deliberately let people know about the situation of the gold mine, and only then did he learn of the existence of the CSH Gold Mine.

Of course, there are so many gold mines in China, and this CSH Gold Mine is neither the one with the largest reserves nor the one closest to Babaoliang. The reason why Zhou Yang thought of going here is to let him leave the intense work of the research institute to personally There is also a reason for bringing people over to look for it.

Because the CSH Gold Mine is very special, it is an extremely rare open-pit gold mine.

That's right, it is the open air in everyone's understanding!

It's just that what was exposed in the wilderness was not gold, but gold ore.

And as far as Zhou Yang knows, the gold reserves of this gold mine are astonishing. The proven ore reserves have exceeded 7000 million tons, and it ranks among the top ten gold mines in the country.

Open Pit means deposits are easy to mine, Reserves mean potential and sustainability.

Once this gold mine with low mining difficulty and potential is found, the military will inevitably send people to mine it quickly, and the extracted gold will be able to make up for the lack of military expenditure.

Hearing Zhou Yang's affirmative answer, Professor Tao pondered for a while, and then said: "Little Comrade Zhou, I have an old friend who lives in the grass below. He has been a herdsman all his life and knows most of the places in Wuzhong Banner. I understand, if you send someone to invite my friend over, he may know where you are looking for!"

Zhou Yang's eyes lit up immediately, and he hurriedly said, "Okay, you keep telling me your friend's name and address, and I'll send someone to invite him right away!"

"My friend's name is Ha Rigui, and he lives in Maoqibayinnur Gacha, Gandu. My student Ji Rimutu once visited his home with me. You can take him with you when you go!" said old Tao said the professor.

"Row!"

Then Zhou Yang immediately called the platoon leader Zhang of the guard platoon over, and asked him to immediately take Professor Tao's students to Gandu Maoqi to invite someone.

And he didn't wait. After arranging for Professor Tao to stay in the guest house to rest, he went straight to the banner government of Wuzhong Banner, accompanied by Chen Beixuan and others.

He plans to chat with the local government here to see if he can find some old maps or local chronicles, and see if there are any clues.

He couldn't put all his hopes on that old friend of Professor Tao...
