A doctor who travels through two eras

Minister Zheng listened to Lin Sanyi's instructions and knew that what he said made sense, so he nodded emphatically:
"Okay, with you saying that, we can go ahead and do it with confidence. We promise we won't let you down."

Lin Sanqi added:
"Furthermore, without a solution for long-distance transportation, it is unrealistic for us to rely solely on Daqing Oilfield. After all, Daqing Oilfield is located in the remote and impoverished Northeast, which is no exaggeration to say it is a poor and remote area."

Therefore, in my opinion, I will acquire equipment for approximately 30 oil refineries this time. We can expand our operations, setting up multiple refineries across the country to supply resources locally, which will be more efficient.

Minister Zheng was troubled:

"Even if it's just one refinery per province, as long as you have the equipment, we definitely have no problem. The problem is that there aren't many oil fields currently being exploited in China. Without oil fields, we can't accommodate refineries."

Take Zhejiang Province as an example. After years of exploration and research, we've determined that there are definitely no oil fields in this province. Therefore, placing an oil refinery in Zhejiang would be inappropriate and a complete waste.

Lin Sanqi thought to himself that decades later, Zhejiang Province alone, with just Zhejiang Petrochemical and Zhenhai Refining & Chemical, would crush all other oil refineries in the country.

However, this relies on the deep-water port advantages of Zhoushan Ningbo Port to import oil from abroad.

Lin Sanqi then waved his hand, and two secretaries came over with a large map, which they slowly began to unfold.

Minister Zheng was very curious, so he went up to take a look and then saw the problem, exclaiming in surprise:
"Comrade Sanqi, is this a map showing the distribution of oil and gas in China?"

Lin Sanqi nodded and said:

"Yes, this is the distribution of domestic oil and gas that I know so far, and I have marked them all on the map."

For example, the Changqing Oilfield, located in the Ordos Basin, has a total exploration area of ​​37 square kilometers, and according to our estimates, its proven oil reserves are over 85 billion tons.

The reserves of Daqing Oilfield, which you currently believe to be around 50 billion tons, are actually less than those of Changqing Oilfield.

In addition, the Shengli Oilfield in the Yellow River Delta region may seem small at only 8 tons of oil per day, but I want to tell you that its oil reserves are a staggering 55 billion tons.

In addition, there are large oil fields in Xinjiang Province, the Tarim Desert, and the Karamay and Tarim River areas on the northwestern edge of the Gar Basin.

Therefore, overall, my country will not lack oil in the next 2 to 30 years, and we can declare that we have shed our label as an oil-poor country. Our oil refineries can then be built in a dispersed manner across these regions.

Minister Zheng was shocked and stared at the map in silence for a long time.

He simply couldn't believe that a "smuggler" could obtain such a top-secret national secret as a map showing the distribution of oil and gas fields in China, and know so much about it.

This is something that is extremely chilling to think about.

"Comrade Sanqi, where did you get these oil and gas distribution maps? Are they accurate?"

Lin Sanqi laughed heartily:
"Where did it come from? Of course, it's data that we completed the exploration before liberation. Don't worry, Lao Zheng. How come you're not as bold as the Ministry of Coal Industry?"
When I gave them the national coal resource distribution map, they happily took it and started using it. Unlike you, always worried about this and that.

With our country's tight defenses against enemies and spies, which foreign exploration team could operate undetected within our borders? You're overthinking it."

Minister Zheng blushed slightly.

Thinking to myself that Lin Sanqi's ideological awareness and loyalty to the country were recognized and endorsed by the highest level, I really shouldn't doubt him.

"Comrade Sanqi, besides this distribution map, do you have any other detailed geological data on the oilfield?"

Lin Sanqi pointed to several shipping containers not far away and said:

"Everything is prepared for you. There are 10 containers of documents there, with detailed information on various oil fields, everything is complete. Consider this a free gift from me."

Oh, by the way, don't throw this container away after you're done using it. It's a good thing; it can be used as a temporary campsite when you're doing field exploration.

There were no shipping containers in China in the 1960s. This was not a technical problem, but rather because steel production could not keep up.

Thinking of this, Lin Sanqi suddenly felt a chill. He wondered if he would be asked to help set up a steel plant again in the future. He was still afraid to go to the hometown of the kitchen knife team, fearing that he would be beaten up while eating barbecue.

After Minister Zheng expressed his deepest gratitude, Lin Sanqi put aside the matter of the oil refinery. Although the New Year was over, he still had many things to deal with.

The first priority is to implement the barefoot doctor system nationwide.

Although it is clear that barefoot doctors are going to be implemented in all provinces across the country, and the leaders and cadres of the ministry have each taken charge of their own assigned areas.

However, since barefoot doctors were a completely new concept in history, there was an urgent need for a template to demonstrate how to establish them.

As a result, the Guangdong and Guangxi regions, which were Lin Sanqi's designated areas, became the first batch of pilot areas in the country.

Once the barefoot doctors system is successfully established in Guangdong and Guangxi and a workable, sustainable model is formed, it can be promoted nationwide. With his godfather, Director Shen Guoming, overseeing things in Bao'an County, and his father, Lin Kushen, watching over things in Hong Kong, Lin Sanqi has no worries.

4 month 15 day.

Lin Sanqi, along with Wang Jin, Lu Xuezhi, Huang Xiaoji, and 10 other veterans from Guangxi, four bodyguards from Zhonghai South, and his secretary Li Yujie, boarded a train to Xiguang Province.

The reason he didn't fly there by private jet was because Lin Sanqi wanted to conduct an undercover investigation first.

If it weren't for an undercover investigation, and the notifications were simply passed down level by level, he probably wouldn't be able to see the true situation by the time he reached the local level. He had already experienced this firsthand in Shaanxi Province.

Taking a train from Bao'an County to Xiguang Province is not an easy task.

Lin Sanqi and his group first took the Guangzhou-Kowloon Railway to Huadu, then transferred in Huadu and traveled along the Yuehan Railway to Hengyang, Fujian Province.

Then, in Hengyang, I transferred to the Xiang-Gui Railway to Guilin, and finally from Guilin, I transferred to the Qian-Gui Railway to reach Hechi.

It circled around half of southern China.

Along the way, if Lin Sanqi hadn't pulled out his official ID, he wouldn't have been able to buy a train ticket.

In the 1960s, train tickets weren't something you could just buy and travel on as you pleased. You needed a letter of introduction and a legitimate reason to get a ticket; otherwise, you might as well follow Ni Kuang's example and walk from Inner Mongolia to Hong Kong.

After arriving in Hechi, there was no train to take to Wang Jin's hometown, Andu County.

When the weary group finally arrived in Andu County by long-distance bus, Lin Sanqi was on the verge of madness.

If it's decades from now, it's only a little over 700 kilometers. A few people can take turns driving, and it will only take 8 hours to get there.

However, in 1964, it took Lin Sanqi and his group a full five days to arrive, even with the availability of trains and cars.

This was in ancient times, when people rode horses or walked; it would have taken several months.

No wonder that during the late Qing Dynasty, it took a full 20 days for news of the foreign devils occupying Huadu City to reach the capital. By the time the emperor saw it and sent back an imperial edict, it was too late.

Wang Jin and his group were quite excited to return to their hometown. Huang Xiaoji, the youngest, was the most talkative:
"Boss, don't underestimate us just because we're poor. We still have a lot of delicious food, like sesame leaf buns, rice noodles, and fragrant black rice dumplings. Those were the snacks we craved back then."

Also, the black goat from Du'an is the best! Whether in soup or grilled, it's all meaty and fragrant, with absolutely no gamey taste. And don't miss the sour fish soup either, boss, you absolutely have to try it!

Wang Ji also said with a smile:
"Yes, boss, now that we're in our hometown, it's our treat. We're all loaded now, we can eat whatever we want, that's how generous we are."

The other veterans from Andu County burst into laughter, proving that money really does embolden even the most cowardly.

In the past, these country folk rarely came to the county town. They could only drool over the delicious food on the street stalls, but they didn't have a penny in their pockets.

Now everyone earns an annual salary of HK$6000. A leader like Wang Jin, whose annual income reaches HK$10,000, naturally has the confidence to make such boastful remarks.

But Lin Sanqi just pursed her lips when she heard that:
"Do you think this is still Hong Kong? You think money can buy everything? You've probably forgotten about food coupons and meat coupons, haven't you? Without coupons, even if you have money, do you think a restaurant will sell to you? Hmph."

Upon hearing this, Wang Jin and the others immediately stopped laughing and scratched their heads in bewilderment.

I've been away for several years now and have completely forgotten about food coupons.

After the initial excitement subsided, everyone calmed down, looked around, and began to re-examine their hometown. Then, they all sighed repeatedly.

"Our Andu County is still so poor, nothing has changed."

Lin Sanqi then took out his camera and began taking pictures with great interest.

"It hasn't improved. This original, pristine appearance will be a treasure for cultural tourism in the future, and people will make a fortune from it."

Andu County is a county with ethnic minorities, with a total of 27 ethnic minorities. Together with the Han Chinese, they account for almost half of the national total.

The Yao people make up the largest group among them.

With the increase in the number of ethnic minorities, the clothing worn by ordinary people on the streets is naturally diverse, maintaining traditional ethnic costumes that are very distinctive to the local area.

What others see as a backward place, Lin Sanqi sees as the most beautiful "scenery." (End of Chapter)
