When the first light of dawn rose in Anut's sky.
Ye Qing also woke up from his alarm.
The two Master Metal Experts had already packed up their belongings. When they went out, General Maups, who was still sleepy, was already waiting at the door.
Today was the day Mr. Ye returned to China. In addition to sending him off, General Maups also asked people to prepare some of the more precious gifts on the road to Africa.
Ye Qing did not stand on ceremony with General Maups. He asked people to get the ambergris, Aquarius palm oil, and the like. Doudou liked them very much.
In addition to these, General Maups also prepared two bright diamonds with purity up to the IF level.
Two diamonds, each the size of a pigeon's egg.
"General, this is..." In the car heading to the airport, Ye Qing looked at the box with some surprise. There were two high-quality raw diamonds padded with velvet cloth.
General Maups really spent a lot of money this time. If these two raw diamonds were thrown into the pockets of the European jewelry merchants, it would not be long before two pieces of diamond jewelry worth millions of US dollars would appear in a jewelry exhibition.
These two top-grade raw diamonds were not comparable to local specialties like ambergris and palm oil.
High-quality raw diamonds were hard currency that was more precious than gold. With Ye Qing's understanding of General Maups, he was far from rich enough to casually give out a million US dollars gift.
Unless …
"Tell me, General, is there something you need my help with?"
General Maups scratched his head and smiled. He said that there was indeed something he wanted to trouble Mr. Ye with.
General Maups was a trendy general who was very eager to integrate with the modern international society. At the same time, he was also a general who liked to learn from the development plans of other powerful countries.
Hua Xia was a very, very good teacher.
Of course, General Maups was not the only one who imitated Hua Xia. In Southeast Asia and Africa, many third-world countries regarded the step-by-step development and change of Hua Xia as the most worthy teacher to learn from.
Yesterday, General Maups had thought for half a night and finally made the decision to take a bigger step forward.
Although he hadn't read the sentence 'the economic foundation determines the superstructure', he still deeply understood the principle of 'if you want to develop, you need to have money'.
If there were no accidents, the Monster Industries would send a large number of machines to the three diamond mines next week.
When the time came, the Monster Industries would have a terrifying mining ability. In less than half a year, General Maups would be able to get a share of the profits. In the past, he wouldn't even dare to dream of getting a share of the profits from low and middle grade raw diamonds.
What was he going to do with the money?
Of course, it was used to develop the Anut district and develop it into a thriving modern society that could have a healthy economy.
General Maups had spent a long time studying Hua Xia's economic development model and its current economic situation.
Especially after the opening, those strong economic cities took off in a short period of time.
He thought about copying the development of these cities.
Then, after the key research, General Maups found that he was thinking too much.
The reason why Hua Xia could become Hua Xia was not just because the development plan was done correctly.
Without the group of workers with selfless dedication, without the scientists who forgot to eat and sleep and risked their lives to the cause of science, even if Hua Xia invited immortals, it would be impossible to have today's economic and technological achievements.
Even today, General Maups could still smell this spirit from the Monster Industries employees who had traveled thousands of miles to come here.
To put it bluntly, General Maups really wanted to lose his mind and completely copy the development route of the economic strong cities in Hua Xia. He was afraid that in less than three years, the savings of the entire Anut special district would be exhausted.
Compared with the people of Hua Xia, General Maups felt that his compatriots in his hometown were a group of pigs.
"Mr. Ye, I have a three-year development plan for the Anut special district here. Can you help me refer to it?"
Seeing Ye Qing nod, General Maups began to introduce the plan he had recently summarized. "Mr. Ye, you know that the only thing we can offer in the Anut district at present is the minerals buried in the land."
"Digging out these minerals in exchange for development funds is obviously the most convenient way, but it is certainly not the only way."
"Since I followed you, I have been studying the economic development route of Hua Xia, trying to find a suitable path for us."
"Later, I focused on the miracles of Hua Xia that gradually developed from a backward village into the world's top economic city. I think there are many things in these cities that are worthy of our Anut district's reference. "
"For example, their talent introduction plan."
"Their public resource allocation and management …"
"Wait …" After listening to General Maups talk for a few minutes, Ye Qing had to interrupt him.
Why did it sound like this development plan was copied from the ideas of those municipalities?
He was crazy!
Ye Qing decided to persuade him. "General, I think you need to calm down. Hua Xia is still very different from here."
"For example, our cultural background, economic situation, and even you have to consider the education level of the two countries …"
"I understand, I understand." General Maups smiled a little embarrassedly. "We definitely can't learn those industrial development plans. Not only us, but no country in the world can learn them."
"But after I studied their city's traffic data, I found a very, very scary data."
What data was Ye Qing asking about?
General Maups said the number of people entering the country.
"Mr. Ye, in Shanghai alone, 40 million people entered and exited the airport last year. Don't you think that's scary?" When General Maups first learned the data, his first reaction was that the statistician was careless and added an extra zero behind the number.
The number of people entering and exiting a city!
Not to mention 40 million, even four million was not much less than the population of the entire Nigeria.
But when General Maups checked all kinds of official statistics, he found that the number was real …
Then he inquired about the number of people entering and exiting other cities and finally came to a conclusion.
What kind of industry was this?!
Don't be delusional to imitate the development path of Hua Xia's industrial technology. Just casually pull in a few tourists from Hua Xia to travel abroad, and the economy of their Anute Special District could take off by dozens of percent.
Originally, General Maups was not confident in the development of tourism. At this stage, he only dared to use the theme of "Wild Nature" to attract some tourists from Europe who loved adventure.
But yesterday, after he met the group of cartoonists from Hua Xia who came to Anute Special District to travel.
From the surprised faces of these cartoonists, General Maups found that Hua Xia tourism might be very promising.
He didn't know if he didn't check, but when he checked, he was shocked.
General Maups specially investigated the spending power of Hua Xia tourists last night. After the investigation, he found that compared with Hua Xia tourists, the foreigners in Europe were not worth licking at all.
He deliberately used the temptation of free hunting and abalone and lobster to keep the cartoonists for a few more days.
He wanted to know more about these people from Hua Xia, who could even yell at a warthog that the locals didn't want to eat, and chased it for a few miles with a camera. He wanted to know more about what they could play and experience in Africa.
Perhaps this group of cartoonists had just been cheated by several border inspectors with the excuse of buying illegal diamonds.
Without thinking about it, they told General Maups that they had to wait for them to play before they could be sure, but the project of buying cheap legal diamonds and gold would definitely be popular.
"So your final meaning is that you hope to promote close bilateral tourism cooperation with the Hua Xia tourism department?"
General Maups quickly nodded. "Unilateral cooperation is also OK. I know that few people here can afford to travel to Hua Xia."
"We can provide Hua Xia tourists with visa-free and absolute safety and personal protection."
"In addition, I can hire Hua Xia construction companies to build local hotels and tourist attractions."
"These are not difficult." Ye Qing felt that General Maups's tourism development plan would definitely be passed by the tourism department. Since Monster Industries came to Nigeria to pave the way, several large domestic enterprises have now targeted mineral resources in Nigeria.
And Hua Xia used to have international flights to Nigeria. Although it was only a transit station, there would be more tourists in the future, and there would be no difficulty in opening a direct flight.
"But …" General Maups said with a wry smile, "Even if you sign a unilateral tourism cooperation, it's useless."
"99% of Hua Xia friends have never heard of our country."
