Adelaide, Braganza Group’s southern expansion of mining.
"Boss, this is Billiton from Melbourne, giving us a preliminary agreement for cooperation in the iron ore industry."
After receiving the cooperation agreement from Billiton handed over by his assistant Harry, Bolt read it
Just after reading a little bit, I saw the 50/50 split and the acquisition of shares.
Seeing this, Bolt couldn't stand it any longer. He was so disgusted that he threw the agreement aside.
"What kind of capital does Billiton have? It's so arrogant. It talks about cooperation with us, wants to acquire 25% of our shares, and wants 50% of our iron ore resources. What do you think of us!?"
Bolt took out a cigarette, lit it, took a deep puff, and then slowly exhaled it, with an expression of great enjoyment.
"These Haojiang brand cigarettes are so good to smoke. They are better than all the cigarettes in Australia."
Bolt smoked happily, then took out another cigarette and threw it to his close assistant Harry.
"Harry, why do you think these Melbourne people have such big faces? How dare they propose such conditions."
Harry also lit a cigarette and started puffing away.
"Boss, maybe Billiton thinks that it has been established for a long time and is a giant in Australia, so it treats our newly established Nanbu as a mere little ant, so it dares to be so presumptuous."
Billiton has indeed been established for a long time. It was established in Melbourne, Australia in 1860. It has developed for so long and has become a local leader.
As Australia's top city, Melbourne has always been on par with Sydney, which has also caused local companies to look down on companies from other backward states.
I think the companies in these backward states are all small workshops. If I buy their shares and cooperate with them, I think highly of them.
"What you said is very possible, after all, this is indeed very Melbourne."
Harry's words are very reasonable. Bolt has been in Australia for a long time and has been in contact with the so-called upper class in Melbourne and Sydney. These people are very proud.
Bolt is now a South Australian citizen and lives in the capital, Adelaide.
Although Adelaide is the capital and was established very early, in 1837, it is still a standard small city with a population of less than 200,000.
In fact, there are not many people in South Australia as a whole. The population is mainly concentrated in the capital. In a big city like Melbourne, a quarter of the population can suppress South Australia. They have the capital to look down upon.
However, there are people behind Bolt, and he is not fighting alone.
Backed by the Braganza royal family, there is also a group of immigrants from the same ethnic group, now mingling with the southern European immigrants in South Australia.
Not long ago, several people were sent to the South Australian Parliament. They are very vocal in South Australia.
But even so, people in Melbourne still can’t let people in Melbourne take a high look.
"Victoria and New South Wales, these two bastards, have always considered themselves to be noble British people. They look down upon us non-British immigrants and maintain the so-called purity of the two states.
What does it mean to look down on us so much and compare us with the indigenous people?
Who doesn’t know the details of these two criminal states?
A group of criminals, if you reveal their background, are not just a group of exiles. They were all despised and exiled here by the British. How can they still be qualified to say that they are British!?"
Although Bolt has only been in Australia for a short time, he is still very angry with these British-Australians.
After all, Melbourne is a big city in Australia and has more resources and supplies than Adelaide, so Bolt has been there several times.
Every time I go there, I get angry. Even though I’m buying them things and giving them money, some people still show that kind of expression.
A stinky Adelaide guy comes to Melbourne again to beg for food and favors!
"There's nothing we can do about it!
These two states are the richest in Australia. With their abundant capital, they certainly look down on us.
Adelaide and South Australia are pretty good, but Western Australia and Perth are even worse and have a lower status.
Western Australia has gold mines and other resources, but the processing technology is not good enough. If we take the resources to these two states for processing, they are ridiculed and the price is lowered. They have no solution at all."
Is Harry an arrogant Englishman who is used to strange things? Although he is the descendant of criminals, he still has a very high airs.
The same British immigrants, the Scots and the Irish, were also despised by the English immigrants. The only exception was the Welsh.
The English immigrants recognized themselves as their own people. There was only one Welsh person, and other ethnic groups were not enough.
These English criminals control Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland, the three best places in Australia. Of course they look down upon them as poor rural areas.
Even the Scots and Irish who left the British Isles were looked down upon, let alone European immigrants from other countries.
Even South Australia and Western Australia actually had English criminal immigrants, but they were directly expelled by people from these three states.
In these three eastern states, the pride towards backward areas is shared by the people from the top to the bottom, and it is not limited to a small area.
"Forget it, don't cooperate with them.
I thought that with such an iron mine, I would receive sincere cooperation.
But whether it is BHP or Billiton, they are all the same, they promote themselves very high and put us low.
If the equipment hadn't arrived yet, in order to develop the iron mine in advance, I wouldn't have contacted them and suffered this crime."
Bolt sought cooperation with a sincere heart, but received such a reply, which made his heart hurt.
Today's Australia is short of iron ore. Nantuo discovered a large reserve of magnetite in the Eyre Peninsula of South Australia, which is very valuable.
This magnetite has an estimated reserve of 30 million tons and an iron grade of 67%, which is close to a medium-sized iron ore.
However, this iron ore is very valuable in South Australia, but for Melbourne and Victoria, it can only be a drizzle.
BHP and Billiton operate a lot of mining industries, they are rich and willful, and they also own a few small iron ore mines, so they look down on South Australia.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
However, Victoria and Melbourne would never have imagined that Western Australia and South Australia have so much iron ore, tens of billions of tons.
Tangning knew about the iron ore mines in these two places, especially Western Australia. The iron ore mines it owned were terrifying and dominated the world.
South Australia is a little worse than Western Australia, but its iron ore reserves are more than those of the three eastern states combined. It is a small witch.
However, the iron ore in Western Australia must not be developed. Historically, Western Australia has developed rapidly because of the iron ore. If this is exposed now, Downing's plan to split Australia will fail.
Even if Western Australia wants to be independent, it will never be able to escape the control of the east.
Because history has proven that the facts of this matter are that when Western Australia called for independence, it was just to shout slogans. However, with the iron ore, it wanted to be truly independent, but it failed.
The iron ore reserves in the Eyre Peninsula are average and can only be considered medium to large, but this is not the only place in South Australia that has iron ore.
However, Tang Ning only proposed to explore the Eyre Peninsula for southern expansion, and as expected, a small iron mine was discovered.
There must be more than that little iron ore in the Eyre Peninsula, and it can still be explored. Tang Ning asked them to stop their activities in order to prevent them from alerting others.
Let’s develop this iron mine first, so that South Australia can get a start, and then we’ll take our time with the next few iron mines.
The most important thing now is to intensify the relationship between South Australia and Victoria, and add strength to the already bad situation.
The relationship between South Australia and Victoria is very bad, not only because of the relationship between poor and rich, but also because of water resources.
The Murray River-Darling River system is the only large-scale long-running river in Australia. It originates from the New South Wales and Victoria plateaus, but its outlet is in South Australia.
Australia is a country that is short of water. In order to compete for this river water, these two states have excluded South Australia.
The relationship between the three states is not very good to begin with, especially South Australia and Victoria. Downing is now deliberately inflaming emotions and preparing to split the Australian Federation.
In South Australia, as long as a part of the resources are developed and Braganza invests a part of the money, hundreds of thousands of people can live a good life and get rid of their excessive dependence on Victoria.
Keep creating divisions like this.
In a few years, South Australia and Western Australia will be able to separate from the Commonwealth of Australia and form a new federation.
Maybe we can still get it, Tasmania.
