Chapter 1279: Yakutsk

"It's okay, it's much warmer than I thought, and not as cold as I thought!" Qian Congcong wore thick clothes, and it turned out that it was not as cold as I thought.
This Yakutsk Airport is called a simple, similar to the Imperial Capital Nanyuan Airport, not like an airport in the capital area at all.
Xiao Peng said cheerfully: "The weather is fine now. It can reach seven or eight degrees Celsius during the day and it's cold at night. In two months, the temperature here can reach minus seventy degrees at night. After all, this is close to the Arctic Circle. But having said that, now is actually the best time to come here."
"Is this still the best time?" Qian Congcong was puzzled.
Xiao Peng nodded: "You are really right. Although the temperature is high in June, July and August, sometimes it can reach more than 30 degrees, but he has a problem. Almost the whole country is on the tundra. During those three months, because the temperature was too high and the frozen ground was thawing, the whole country was muddy. At that time, I went hunting in the forest? Not to mention the mosquitoes in the mountains, a lot of the land was muddy, and it was just two steps away. Now the frozen ground has gradually hardened, so the road is much easier."
"Hey, Brother Peng, how did you know?" Qian Congcong asked puzzledly.
Xiao Peng smiled and said: "Actually, I have been here for a few days before. I have a friend in Kazakhstan, but this is the first time I have come to Yakutsk. The legendary'Ice City'!"
The entire bear country is vast, with a considerable part of the land in the Arctic Circle, but only Yakutsk, the capital of Sakha, is called the ‘ice city’. The entire city is built on permafrost hard as rocks.
The surface of this permafrost layer is one-meter-thick active soil layer that freezes in the east and thaws in summer. Therefore, wooden piles must be deeply plunged under the active soil layer during construction, and the house should be built on piles one meter above the ground. Avoid destroying buildings when the land melts. Like water pipes, they must also be laid on the road to avoid rupture when they freeze and thaw. The water pipes must be heated all the way along to prevent the water pipes from freezing and cracking. The doors and windows of the house must have at least three floors, otherwise it will be completely frozen.
But Yakutsk also has its pride. There are enough lakes and rivers here, to what extent? The entire Sakha Republic can be divided into a lake for one person! Moreover, the mineral resources here are too important, so the Xiong government has been developing here.
Of course, because the climate here is too harsh, it is extremely difficult to develop!
After hearing this, Tang Fang curiously asked, "Do you have a friend here? The one you called on the plane?"
"Yes!" Xiao Peng did not deny.
Tang Fang said with a smile: "Brother Peng, you shouldn't actually call. After all, the Alexander who hosted us this time is a government official here. Maybe your friend can't even get in the airport. I'll talk to Alexander later. Your friend comes over and let him in."
Xiao Peng smiled without saying a word, and followed everyone off the plane.
Tao Haining saw a group of Yakuts in ethnic costumes not far from the plane. Is this a welcome ceremony?
This Yakut is a yellow race, but it is a mixed race. No one can say about their ancestors until now. Some people say they are descendants of the Chile people, some say they are descendants of the Huns, and some say they are Jurchens. Descendants of Tungusic people, but in any case, are of Turkic race. In fact, there were also Yakuts in China. When the bear country invaded, the Yakuts and Ewenki people went south to seek help from Daqing at that time, and later they all stayed in China. However, all the Yakuts who stayed in China were included in the Ewenki.
Back then, the people of the Xiong Kingdom went through a lot of battles in the unified land, and the people of the Xiong Kingdom went smoothly from west to east, but they lost consecutive battles on the two yellow races in the east, one is Chukchi and the other is Yaku Special people. But later the Yakuts surrendered, and the Chukchi people fought to the end. Although they have joined the bear country now, the Yakut population preserved much better than the Chukchi people.
Seeing Xiao Peng and others getting off the plane, the Yakuts at the scene danced a folk dance to welcome them. It can be seen that people here really value Qian Congcong and others.
"Brother Peng, what are they playing?" There were a few men playing an instrument that looked like a key. The sound was very unique, all of which were vibrato, like Huaxia's ‘mouth chord’. Several others are singing a song with a peculiar tune.
Xiao Peng smiled and said, "It's called'Homus', it's the only national musical instrument of the Yakuts. Almost every Yakut can play it. When you go back, you must buy a few as a souvenir. Where do they sing? It’s their epic. It would take several days to chant it again. This Yakut originally had no words. It was around 1930 that they invented a phonetic alphabet similar to Russian, so their history is all Relying on this epic, it has been passed on from generation to generation. However, their current welcome ceremony is a shamanistic religious ceremony, which is very similar to the Chinese of jumping."
"Damn, they can't sing for a few days, right?" Qian Congcong was startled.
However, his worries were unnecessary. Soon the song and dance performance stopped. A middle-aged Kuyt in a suit and an old Kuyakut in national costume came over.
"That's Alexander." Qian Congcong introduced to Xiao Peng in a low voice.
The fusion of Kuyts and Xiong people is still very good. Many of the Kuyt girls who come to perform song and dance performances are mixed races. If they are pure Kuyts, most of them have high cheekbones and willow eyes. But the cheekbones of mixed girls are not so high. Therefore, the people of Yakutia generally speak the name of the bear country in Russian.
But the old man standing next to them, at first glance, is the kind of very status. Holding a walking stick in his hand, he came to a few people tremblingly, gestured to everyone one by one, muttering words, and then put a string of animal skins, animal bones and gemstones on each neck. , This is a well-known local old shaman blessing everyone.
Qian Congcong and the others are curious about the scene before them. After all, they have been to any big city, but they really don't come to these remote and small places.
What surprised them even more was what happened later. When the old shaman came in front of Xiao Peng, he was taken aback. After watching Xiao Peng carefully for a long time, he took a step back and directly leaned over to give Xiao Peng a kneeling salute.
Xiao Peng quickly helped the old shaman up and looked at the puzzled expressions of the crowd. Xiao Peng smiled wryly: "If you said that you were coming to Saha, maybe I won't be here, I'm afraid that this will happen. ."
The Yakut official named Alexander also looked dumbfounded: "Great Kurge Shaman, what is going on?"
Kurge didn't answer him, but asked Xiao Peng respectfully: "Respected'Galetitan', why don't you say anything in advance when you come to Saha? Let us also be a little bit prepared."
Xiao Peng smiled bitterly: "I'm just afraid that you will disturb me. I just want to walk around and see by myself."
Kurger hurriedly said after hearing this: "It's my fault of thinking."
Xiao Peng smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay, but how did you recognize me?"
Kurge smiled and said, "Isn’t it necessary to keep up with the times now? We have all seen photos of the great shaman of Galtitan. I am also a good friend of Aksuak." Xiao Peng suddenly realized, Eke Suak is the great shaman of all Inuit and neighbors to Kuyat.
Xiao Peng smiled and said: "Kurg Shaman, don't be so polite when you are so old. We understand your wishes, and we feel your blessings. Go back and rest first."
Kurge shook his head and said, "How can lord ‘Galetitan’ not come to my place? Then I would be too rude. Please be sure to visit me."
Xiao Peng said with a bitter face: "But I have a friend who came to pick me up, and an appointment has been made."
"Friends?" Kurge Shaman looked around, there was no one else except them to greet him!
At this moment, there was a roar in the sky, and the sound of this engine was extremely loud. Several people looked up together and saw a ‘little monster’ landing there.
Xiao Peng recognized that guy's identity at a glance: the Mi-26 transport helicopter.
To say that he is "small" is a helicopter after all, "only" twelve meters long, but it is not wrong to say that it is a "monster". This thing is the largest transport helicopter in the world. Don’t look at it as a transport plane. The quantity is higher than that of China Yun-20, comparable to the C-130 of the Stars and Stripes. At most, 150 soldiers can be transported at the same time!
However, the Mi-26 in front of me is obviously not for military use. The surface coating is very beautiful, and military aircraft will not use this garish coating.
Alexander felt a little tangled when he saw the helicopter falling, but he recognized the owner of the helicopter. Isn't this not long after the separation? Why is he here?
The door of the Mi-26 opened, and a group of Xiongguo strong men stepped off the plane.
After they came down and made sure that there was no danger around, a short man wearing sunglasses walked off the plane. When he saw Xiao Peng, the man was happy, took off his sunglasses, and walked towards Xiao Peng with his hands open: "Great Samuel, I thought it was an illusion when I got your call. We just separated a few days ago, and I didn't expect you to be here now."
Xiao Peng smiled and said, "Sergey, I actually didn't know that I was coming here. I was kidnapped here!"
The visitor is no one else, but Sergey, a diamond dealer in Saha.
"Who would dare to kidnap Boss Xiao?" A man behind Sergey suddenly shouted when he heard it. When his voice went down, the group of strong bearers behind him moved in unison, opened his clothes, and took out his submachine gun with a vigilant look.
"Yeah!" The group of girls that Qian Congcong had brought with him screamed as soon as they took their guns. Qian Congcong and others were also taken aback. Who is this? Are you here to kidnap yourself?
The scene was quiet for an instant - although these rich second-generation groups are usually arrogant enough, but met a group of men with guns?
Persuaded! Must be counseled!
