At this time in Nigeria, it was still late at night with a bright moon and few stars.
In the center of the capital city of the Anut Special District, in a luxurious mansion surrounded by high walls and iron gates, the owner of the land was in a complicated mood and could not sleep.
General Maups's dream came true.
Earlier, his logistics director, Buzz, reported to him by satellite phone that near the Sotu Rainforest, not only did he find dysprosium, which Mr. Ye valued very much, but he also found an associated uranium mine.
It seems to be called copper uranium mica?
Although General Maups has never heard of this mineral type, who doesn't know the name of uranium as long as they know the Internet?
The appearance of dysprosium and copper uranium mica made General Maups both excited and scared.
The excitement was in the barren Nigeria, and in the poor Anut District, there was finally a mineral that could make countless people excited. As long as he got his position right, General Maups believed that it would not be long before the regional economic level under his rule would leap forward substantially, and it was possible to build a modern and wealthy city.
But benefits are always firmly tied to risks, and often the degree of risk is always proportional to the amount of benefits.
General Maups was worried that he would not be able to stand firm in front of the interests of the undercurrent in the future and would be swallowed up by the capital hungry wolves of those developed countries.
If it was only dysprosium, it would be fine, but now a uranium mine was rolled in. His own backward armed forces were certainly out of the question. Could the Monster Industries in the distant East stop the hungry wolves?
In Nigeria, a country forgotten by the world, laws and rules only exist in beautiful assumptions.
If you want to compete for territory or resources, guns and artillery are eternal.
General Maups also surfed the Internet and searched for some information he was interested in on social networks in Europe and the United States. Monster Industries, the achievements in the world's industrial field, he had long heard of them. But once the Sotu Rainforest was opened on a large scale, the secrets inside would be discovered by the outside world sooner or later.
After thinking about it, General Maups could not clearly sort out the situation behind. Fortunately, Mr. Ye sent a message, asking him to take an hour to hold a conference call during the day to determine the details of the cooperation between the two sides.
At eight o 'clock in the morning.
In his daze, General Maups felt someone knocking on his bedroom door. Only when something important happened would his subordinates dare to disturb his sleep.
"General, Mr. Ye called you and said that he wants to discuss the mining plan with you in detail."
General Maups's sleepiness immediately disappeared, and he rolled out of bed. Damn it, I actually overslept.
Without putting on his clothes, General Maups shook his head a few times, cleared his throat, and jogged into the office. After taking a deep breath, he waved at the subordinate next to him, signaling him to leave.
"Hello, Mr. Ye." General Maups suppressed the excitement in his heart. This call was going to last an hour, so he had plenty of time to voice out his doubts one by one.
"Hello, General Maups."
"Then let's get down to business. We're all friends, so there's no need for pleasantries." Over the phone, Ye Qing said with a smile, "We will still be close partners in the future. We will carry out multiple cooperation around the mining area."
General Maups nodded in agreement, and then said the first thought in his mind.
"Mr. Ye, you must first build roads and factories before mining. Last year, I did a rough count of the labor force in Anut. The number of men between the ages of 18 and 35 is 200,000. If Mr. Ye can give these people a job … "
"General Maups, 5,000 initial construction positions are enough. Now that large-scale machinery is automated, the number of people can no longer affect the overall situation. "
"You can choose from these 5,000 people. But you have to ensure their character and quality, and the personnel training will be according to the standards of the military police under your command. These 5,000 people will only be involved in the initial construction of the surrounding facilities. "
"For the mining area development mission, I will send professionals alone. At the same time, you have to shoulder the task of patrolling around the mining area in Sooto Yulin to prevent unrelated people from approaching."
"Five … Five thousand people …" General Maups was very disappointed. In his imagination last night, a mining area of more than ten square kilometers would have to digest at least 30,000 to 50,000 labor force people.
The dirty work of mining and road building would definitely be done by those strong black men who did not need any labor laws, minimum wage protection laws, human rights laws, and other messy laws to interfere with. If he could convert 30,000 backward agricultural people into industrial people, it would be a major change in the entire southern region. That would be a great revolution for the entire southern region, and people would remember his name, Mope.
"Five thousand people, and that's taking into account the fact that their cultural level is relatively low. Otherwise, 1,000 people would be enough."
Ye Qing paused. "For these 5,000 people, I will offer them a monthly salary of 500 US dollars, and provide them with food, lodging, and uniforms. In addition, I will build a local power station with a daily power output of 20 million kilowatt-hours. If you need electricity, I can provide a stable power supply at a low price. "
Twenty million kilowatt-hours was equivalent to the daily power consumption of a county in a developed coastal area in Hua Xia.
General Maups's lost mood was instantly excited by the arrival of this power station. Electricity is the cornerstone of modern civilization, but looking at the entire Anute Special District, only the capital city can guarantee the most basic lighting power supply.
In other cities, the coverage of electricity users is about 15%, and in villages, 0%. In this way, the Anute Special District is still a wealthy area envied by the entire south.
Twenty million kilowatt-hours, a fraction left over, is enough to light the entire Anute Special District.
In the end, it is a world-renowned top industrial company. As soon as it makes a move, it can also solve the power supply problem that General Maups himself vowed to solve in ten years.
"In return for mining, I will also build a hospital, a mobile communication base station covering the periphery of the city, a clean drinking water treatment plant, a comprehensive office building, a …"
Every time the young Mr. Ye talked about an aid project, General Maups's heartbeat would accelerate a little.
In the end, General Maups felt so happy that he couldn't breathe. How is this a return? It's helping him to build up the necessary supporting facilities of a modern city in one step. As long as these facilities are in place, General Maups is confident that Anute City will become a dazzling pearl second only to the capital city.
Mr. Ye is a great businessman.
He is my friend, oh no ~ my benefactor!
By the time Mr. Ye finished talking about the twelve aid projects, General Maups felt extremely embarrassed. Mr. Ye was already so generous before they even started to discuss the development price of the mining area.
Then later …
Ye Qing explained in detail the obligations that both sides needed to provide in the aid project. General Maups couldn't help but lead the topic to how to cooperate in the development of the mining area.
"Didn't I say that you don't need to cooperate in the mining area, and there is no technical cooperation. I will send a team to this part alone."
"No … No …" General Maups scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously. He wanted to express that this mining area belonged to Anut, and even if it was transferred, there would be a transfer fee.
"Oh!" Ye Qing understood.
"Of course, we won't take the mining area for nothing, and we won't buy it at a fixed price like those black-hearted European and American companies."
"How about this, for every ton of minerals produced in the mining area, Monster Industries will subsidize you two hundred US dollars in mining fees."
General Maups shivered again. This deal seemed to be very cost-effective. Two hundred US dollars per ton seemed to be much higher than the price of iron ore. How many tons of minerals were buried in the entire Sooto Yulin mining area …
