I just want to be a quiet scholar

Chapter 524 Convergence
When Shen Qi and his party arrived in Maduo County, the secretary and the county magistrate went out to raise money, and it was the deputy county magistrate who received Shen Qi and others.

The secretary should not have worried about seeking financial support, but there was no other way. Mad was so poor, the secretary could only ask for help.

The most affected by poverty are medical care and education. To Shen Qi's shock, the disease with the highest death rate in Maduo County is actually appendicitis.

There is a shortage of doctors and medicines, an extreme lack of high-level doctors, and the development of education is quite lagging behind. The proportion of people with an education level above elementary school is very low, and there are very few herdsmen who understand Chinese and Chinese characters.

There are many temples in the Sanjiangyuan area, and most of the voices that the honest and devout herdsmen can hear and understand come from the temples.

"To be honest, we haven't been paid for three months because of the county's financial difficulties." The deputy county magistrate smiled wryly, and brought Shen Qi and the others to an elementary school in the county.

There are about a hundred students in the primary school, most of whom are herdsmen's children.

One-third of the children have not seen their parents for several years, and some parents leave their children to the school, and then go out to herd for thousands of miles.

Shen Qi and two postgraduate students saw a little Tibetan girl on the playground. She was wearing a dirty and worn-out cotton padded jacket and single cloth shoes.

"This little girl is pitiful. She is always alone. She stays at school during holidays and doesn't go home." The deputy county magistrate said rather distressed.

Shen Qi came to the little girl and asked kindly: "What's the name of the little sister, how old is she, and what grade is she in?"

"I...my name is Zhuoma, I'm 11 years old, and I'm in the fourth grade." The little girl whispered, speaking Chinese.

Dolma's Chinese was a bit blunt, if she hadn't told her age, Shen Qi would have thought she was a first or second grade student, because Dolma was so thin and short.

Shen Qi was very sad, and asked again: "Where are your parents?"

Dolma heard this, lowered her head, pouted her lips, and remained silent for a long time.

Suddenly, Dolma burst into tears: "They said they were going to herd the sheep, but I don't know where they went."

"Don't cry, don't cry, Dolma doesn't cry." Shen Qi wiped away Dolma's tears, feeling very sad. He is a father and has a daughter, and where is the little Tibetan girl in front of her, including her parents? Still alive, no way of knowing.

At this time, a teacher hit the iron horn hanging under the eaves with an iron rod, and it sounded like the bell for class.

Dolma ran back to the classroom quickly after hearing the bell, and it was obvious that she was eager to learn.

After on-the-spot investigation, Shen Qi found that there were too many problems to be solved in Maduo County.

The goal of getting rid of poverty and becoming rich cannot be achieved by two Yanda graduate students.

"My ability is limited. All I can do is to do something for our county within my ability." Shen Qi decided to donate a carload of medicines to Maduo County in his own name. His father opened a pharmaceutical factory, and there are many medicines. .

"Thank you, thank you Professor Shen!" The deputy county magistrate held Shen Qi's hand tightly.

Shen Qi held the deputy county magistrate's hand, and said earnestly, "Comrade Kang Wenhua, we all know that people need to see a doctor and take medicine, and so does nature. They want to completely change the situation of the 'riddled and holed rat warehouse' in Maduo County." The status quo, to return to the grand scene of "the wind blows the grass and sees the cattle and the sheep", first, we must unswervingly follow the party, and second, our county must also actively carry out self-help work. Poverty alleviation is not a long-term solution, and we must find ways to actively get rid of poverty It is fundamental. The ecological management of Maduo County has reached a very urgent level."

Deputy county magistrate Kang said: "It is true. The deterioration of the ecological environment has not only seriously affected the economic development of our county, but also brought many social problems. In the past, there were almost no criminal cases in Sanjiangyuan, but now... oh, the poor When things go to the extreme, things will go wrong. Left-behind children, medical education and other issues are also sequelae brought about by the deterioration of the ecological environment.”

"In fact, we have long formulated a self-rescue policy of planting grass, eradicating rats, and improving the ecological environment. However, Professor Shen, you have also seen that in our remote corner, we have no money and no talents. In my opinion, talents are more important than money. It's important, but how many senior talents in various majors are willing to come here?" Deputy County Magistrate Kang said with a sad face.

"It's still the same sentence, I believe that the central government believes in the party. The problems you reported, deputy county magistrate Kang, combined with my field research, after I go back, I will compile a version of the research report and report directly." As a party member and a social service Worker, Shen Qi collected a lot of social and political real materials during his trip to the plateau. He did not fool Deputy County Magistrate Kang. After returning to the capital, he would really report directly.As for whether to listen to Shen Qi's report, that's another matter.

As a scientist who is proficient in mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology, after a brief stay in Maduo County, Shen Qi bid farewell to Deputy County Magistrate Kang and asked the two graduate students to do a good job in teaching support. Then he left Maduo County together with driver Zhang from the provincial capital , to the source of the Yellow River.

Maduo County is the first county of the Yellow River. To the west of Maduo is Gezigeya Mountain at the foot of Bayan Har Mountain, which is 4982 meters above sea level, which is the source of the Yellow River.

Several small streams at the foot of Gezigeya Mountain converge into Kariqu, which is the source of the Yellow River.

After the confluence of Kariqu and Yueguzongliequ, it flows through the Xingxiu Sea, and then merges into Zhaling Lake and Ering Lake, so there is "the water of the Yellow River comes from the sky".

Master Zhang drove to the vicinity of Eling Lake. There is no road here. This is the end of the vehicle traffic, and no matter how powerful the off-road vehicle is, it cannot continue.

"Master Zhang, you go back first, I'll just stay here." Shen Qi said.

"How can it be done!" Master Zhang dared to leave Shen Qi alone in the wilderness, it was a political mistake.

"I'm not alone, I have companions." Shen Qi got out of the car and looked into the distance.

There was nothing in the distance except snow mountains, but after a while, a herd of cows and horses appeared.

A horse is a steed, and a cow is a yak.

There are people riding on horseback, and human luggage and materials are carried on the back of oxen.

Shen Qi made a trumpet shape with his hands, and shouted into the distance: "Oh oh oh!"

A man riding a horse in that direction quickly spotted Shen Qi, and he responded loudly: "Oh! Oh!"

Shen Qi: "Oh! Is it you, Old Xu!"

The man on the horse: "Oh! Professor Shen, it's me!"

This is the right slogan. The group of people riding horses and driving cattle are the Sanjiangyuan scientific research team and snow area guides of Associate Professor Xu Zhou of Yanda University.

Suddenly, more than [-] yaks became restless. They yelled and pushed their heads against each other. They chased each other, and I pushed him against each other. A group fight broke out, and the situation on the scene became chaotic.

"Wo Kao!" Shen Qi froze in place, didn't Lao Xu and I just yelled a few slogans, why did the yaks fight?
