In the morning, Nie Zhenbang inspected Qinglin County, a poverty-stricken county under Shian City, which relies entirely on agriculture and animal husbandry as its main industries.
As is well-known, in today's society, commerce is the fundamental element of circulation, and only when commerce thrives can the economy live. However, looking across Qinglin County town, the sparse shops and the few enterprises present are all in a state of near paralysis, a situation that is truly worrisome.
It's understood that both agriculture and animal husbandry require water resources. Water for crops, water for livestock, these are all major consumers of water. But the crux of the problem is that Qinglin County is already lacking in water. The annual rainfall is less than five hundred millimeters, while evaporation reaches two thousand millimeters.
