The layout of Haihan in Jiande County is a long-term project, and the preliminary infrastructure construction may have to last for several years, and the stationing period of personnel sent from other places is usually calculated in years.Considering the actual situation, the station at the foot of Phoenix Mountain is not made up of tents or temporary huts, but actually built several rows of uniform brick houses as dormitories for stationed personnel.

Among them, canteens, clinics, headquarters, meeting rooms, warehouses, armories, stables and other facilities are all available.Outside the camp, more than ten mu of land has been reclaimed nearby, where various fruits and vegetables are grown, and poultry such as chickens, ducks, pigs, and cattle are raised by themselves.

Although this place is a bit remote, but the environment is good, it can be regarded as mountains and rivers, and the accommodation and supporting facilities are complete, food and clothing are safe.However, there were not many people in the station at this time, and those who stayed behind were basically those who were in charge of logistical affairs.

According to Huang Zhichang, at this time most people are busy on various construction sites in Jiande County, and the camp will be more lively in the evening when people from all walks of life come back.

Beks didn't spend too much time in this resident, he took a general look inside and out, and after getting acquainted with the living conditions here, he embarked on the itinerary to the next stop.

Beks' next stop is the key project of this visit to Jiande County, the hydropower station site located in Zijintan, the upper reaches of the Xin'an River.The construction site is still about [-] miles away from Jiande County by water, so it is still necessary to go there by boat.

On the way to the construction site, Huang Zhichang seized the time to report the current progress of the project to Beks.

The project preparations for this hydropower station actually started last summer, and hundreds of engineering personnel were mobilized in the early stage to conduct topographic and geological surveys of the upstream and downstream areas.Then, the Ministry of Construction and the Ministry of Industry will design the project plan and construction process of the hydropower station based on the results of field surveys.

At the same time, a cement factory was built in a riverside depression two miles away from the dam site of the hydropower station.There are no other products in Yanzhou, but there are limestones all over the mountains and plains. This solves the big problem of infrastructure for many industrial projects settled in the area.Otherwise, all the cement required for these projects would have to be brought in from outside, and the shipping cost alone would be an astronomical figure, not to mention the delay due to this.

Due to the simple production process, the cement plant has already been put into operation. Although the production capacity is not large, it can basically meet the needs of the preliminary engineering of the hydropower station.

The infrastructure project of the hydropower station is still in the preparation stage, and the damming can only be started after all conditions are met.

As the head of the Ministry of Industry, Beks also participated in the design of the hydropower station.According to what he knows, the complete construction period of this hydropower station is expected to be as long as four years. After the completion of the dam, [-] hydroelectric units will be put into power generation one after another.

If the problem of long-distance power transmission can be solved by then, the power generation capacity of this hydropower station can not only meet the production needs of various industrial projects in Yanzhou Prefecture, but also provide abundant power supply for Hangzhou Prefecture.

Although the prospects are great, the process may not be smooth sailing.The construction scale and technical difficulty of this project have surpassed several hydropower stations built by Haihan in the past on Hainan Island.Moreover, the hydropower stations on Hainan Island are all built in sparsely populated areas, and the impact on the surrounding human settlements is not too great. However, after the dam is built here to store water, it will have an impact on the nearby counties around Qiandao Lake.

According to Huang Zhichang's knowledge, there are more than a dozen villages and towns around Qiandao Lake that need to be relocated in the future, involving a population of over [-], and the government needs to come forward to coordinate arrangements.

In the afternoon of the same day, Bai Kesi and his party arrived at Zijintan, and then began their field investigation.

Under the leadership of Huang Zhichang, Bai Kesi and others climbed up a hill by the river and observed the situation here from a high position.

Huang Zhichang said: "Please look, my lord. The dam site we have selected is the junction of Xin'an River and Qiandao Lake. To the north of the dam site is Qiandao Lake. After the completion of the water storage, the water level of the lake will be higher than it is now. Several feet, forming a drop for power generation."

Qiandao Lake covers an area of ​​ten thousand hectares. From where they are, they can actually only see a corner of Qiandao Lake.However, the width of the connection between Qiandao Lake and Xin'an River is only tens of feet, and there are canyons made of solid rocks on both sides. It is indeed an excellent natural dam site for the construction of hydropower stations.

On the west bank of the dam site is an extremely busy construction site, where thousands of migrant workers are digging a diversion channel several feet wide and miles long.The excavated stones are collected on site, crushed with a stone crusher, and then used as building materials for making concrete.The clay is loaded on a horse-drawn cart and transported to a cement factory not far away, where it is fired together with limestone to make cement.

Huang Zhichang introduced: "After the completion of this diversion channel, the water injected into the Xin'an River from Qiandao Lake will be diverted from it to the downstream, and then bamboo baskets will be filled with stones to block the original waterway, and then a hydropower station will be built on the riverway. The dam body. After the dam is completed, the water flow will be reintroduced into the dam body, and then the aqueduct will be sealed."

Huang Zhichang's introduction is very simple, but the actual construction process is not like this. Every link needs to spend years and months, and huge manpower, material and financial resources are invested, and nothing goes wrong.Although building materials such as cement, wood, and stones can be collected and produced locally, steel, construction tools, processing equipment, and generator sets required for the later operation of hydropower stations, etc., still have to be transported from other places by shipping. The demand for transportation capacity Still pretty big.

Although Bai Letong had seen the hydropower station on Hainan Island and understood its operating principle, it was the first time he saw the construction process with his own eyes. After watching it for a while, he had doubts: "The daily consumption of such a large project It’s not a small amount, and its cost is beyond my imagination. I would like to ask, where did the construction funds come from?”

Huang Zhichang replied: "As far as I know, half of the funds required for this project are raised by the East China Sea Region, and the other half is allocated by the executive committee. The investment from the beginning of last winter to the current stage alone has exceeded It's a million dollars."

Bai Letong said in shock: "The Donghai region is really rich, with millions of dollars, it's really a big deal!"

However, Beks was thinking about it. When discussing with Shi Diwen a few days ago, he claimed that he would invest tens of millions of yuan in various projects this year, and he didn't know how much of it was invested here.According to the scale of the project and the construction process here, the cost in the next few years will only increase. Presumably next year when the Donghai Region asks the executive committee for money, it will not be the same amount as this year.
