Chapter 13 Preparations
(Thanks to Bianhuang Zuike for the reward of the alliance...)
"Mr. Yang and the others just left, and they agreed to let us take a vacation first?"
Kabuja looked at Yang Deshan and the others in surprise and drove away, and soon disappeared into the night.
"For many people, this land is an undeveloped gold mine, and there are many opportunities for all kinds of people. Since Yang Deshan has been thinking about doing private work, why is it necessary to be unable to get along with us?" Cao Mo speculated the reason why Yang Deshan left calmly, and said to Kabuja with a smile, thinking to himself that Yang Deshan should have known for a long time that he must be calm first if he wants to get rich. This is worth learning from.
"Then you just suggested that they also participate, why didn't Yang react? I was afraid that he would agree just now." Kabuja asked.
Kabuja also thought that the reason why the old chief Filitian agreed to cooperate with them was to reject Yang Deshan and Guo Jian because he lacked the necessary trust in Yang Deshan and Guo Jian.
However, Kabuja was worried that when Yang Deshan, Guo Jian would really shamelessly participate, and took out more than twice as much funds than Cao Mo, purchased a complete set of gold mining equipment, and worked hard in the area allocated to them. He mined more than most of them than ten times more sand gold every day, and the situation might not change.
Seeing Yang Deshan finally leaving without any reaction, Kabuja felt relieved.
"Generally, the ore veins are distributed in a band. In Longta area, it seems that only Yibo Ancient Village produces gold, but other tribal territories are more likely to be due to insufficient surveys and have not been discovered for the time being, not without gold deposits,"
Chinese people have always had the ambition of "rather than phoenix tail", and sometimes face is more important than anything else. Cao Mo couldn't solve the subtle differences from Kabuja for a while, but he just showed off his gold mine knowledge that he had learned,
"They may be thinking in their hearts that they might as well be angry with me in Yibo's ancient village. It would be better to ask the nearby tribe to discuss cooperation in gold mining. Besides, the conditions we negotiated with the old chief will not yell at the outside world. They really have to take over a piece of land, the contract period, the dividend ratio and even the additional management fee ratio I have to charge. Isn't it my final say, and can they come in comfortably and get a share of the pie?"
"...Oh" Kabuja then understood why Yang Deshan left without neatly, and he realized at all that Cao Mo was ill-intentioned.

The night was dark, and the old chief Filician was not energetic. He started to sleep and went back to rest first. The girls and young men in the tribe sang and danced around the bonfire and were still not satisfied.
Cao Mo really had no sense of music or rhythm to dance with the snakes, allowing Kabuja to continue to stay in the square and make a fuss. He was more familiar with the villagers, and he went back to the straw shed where he was recuperating.
No matter what plans Yang Deshan and Guo Jian and others have, even if they can maintain peace for the time being, it will be beneficial to him.
However, the old chief Philip An successfully reached a cooperation agreement, but it does not mean that things can continue to move forward smoothly.
Over the past year, Cao Mo has also contacted many Chinese merchants who trade engineering equipment in Dracula over the past year. He knew that it was not difficult to purchase crushing, grinding and other equipment in Dracula.
In Kanem and surrounding West African countries, although the industrial foundation is extremely weak, there are also some unclimate industries such as cement, steel and alum smelting.
These equipment are used for cement, iron ore crushing, etc.
However, the crushing and grinding equipment used in these industries is often large and medium-sized equipment that can handle hundreds of tons or hundreds of tons of ore per hour, and is expensive, so it is not something he is able to purchase at this time.
In the entire Longta area, the power supply is extremely tight, and there is no power grid connected to Yibo Ancient Village.
Without power supply, how much power diesel generator set does it take to drive these large-scale equipment crushing equipment?
The equipment he can purchase is mainly small vibration crushers and sand making machines, which are suitable for small-scale gold mining teams and their ability to process ores. The initial ideal situation is to maintain a processing capacity of about 20 to 30 tons per day.
This may not be found in Draculamo.
However, if the equipment with only $10,000 or 20,000 is directly sent to a domestic machinery manufacturer, will it be too complicated to be ignored because of the shipping procedures for detention?
I'm afraid this is still a cheating, and under the pretext of purchasing samples and selling equipment from Kanem, I would like to buy goods from domestic manufacturers?
With the faint light of the candle, Cao Mo recorded all these ideas in his workbook, thinking that after Lucy had a preliminary understanding of Draculamo's equipment agent, he would make further considerations.
Foreigners register and establish agency trading companies in Kanem, which is relatively relaxed, but almost any country will have extremely strict restrictions on the mining of special metal deposits.
Kanem's economic development was backward and public security was chaotic, but at the same time, it had a strict legal system left over from the colonial period.
At present, the old chief Filician has made a decision to hand over the gold mine to him for investment and mining, and there will be no trouble for the time being. The output of the Yibo Gucun gold mine is too small and cannot even be called a gold mine.
However, as a foreigner, his local connections only involved a very limited number of people including the old chief Filichian, Kabuja, Lucy, etc. When the gold mine of Ipo Ancient Village continued to develop, it was really like a piece of fat. What big shots are there in Longta area and even Oyo State to cause trouble for him, how could he escape?
In Dracula, in addition to the chaos in public security, officials' corruption and unintentionality are also jaw-dropping.
If you leave a handle at this time and are targeted by local officials in the future, you will be slapped by others!
Being alone in a chaotic country where you are unfamiliar with your own place, the hard truth is!
Thinking of Yang Deshan's calmness when he left, Cao Mo wrote a big word "gou" in his workbook to remind himself.
There are more issues to consider when taking over the gold mining team.
He has worked in the workshop of Dongsheng Group for nearly two years and has been exposed to common equipment. There are no major problems with operation and maintenance. However, his current understanding of gold mining is still on the surface, and it is limited to some information that can be searched on the Internet.
Even though the use of small gold mining equipment and even a complete set of simple gold mining processes seem to be technically unbearable, he has never been able to operate it.
He still needs to understand the entire process and understand how the entire gold mining team will divide the labor next so that he can have a clear idea.
This time he wanted to hire all the gold mining teams in the former Yibo Ancient Village, but these villagers had never even been exposed to the simplest electrical and mechanical equipment. How to train them to use and maintain these simple mechanical equipment is also a very headache.
Whether the gold mining will be obedient from Ovema, how to make them obedient and how to mine gold is particularly easy to hide and carry, and how to prevent theft are all problems.
The gold mining team is all villagers of Yibo's ancient village. They may not dare to steal the property of Chief Filician, but if the gold mine is transferred to his hands, he would be a little wishful thinking if he still believed that the villagers were simple.
I was idle before and thought I had never eaten pork and had seen pig runs, but I really wanted to do it, but I found that it was difficult to even learn pig runs.
After Kabuja finished his energy and went into the straw shed to rest, Cao Mo was not sleepy yet. He sat on the straw mat to sort out his thoughts. He unknowingly wrote forty or fifty pages of paper. When the two candles burned out, the sky turned green.
Cao Mo took out his cell phone to check the time. It was past four in the morning.
Fortunately, he did not buy the color screen mobile phone that is popular in China. The type of phone consumes too fast power, and even Yibo Gu Village can't find a battery to charge. The old Nokia can last for five or six days without charging.
There is no signal in Yibo Ancient Village. Apart from looking at the time, you can turn off the phone normally.
…………
…………
Cao Mo slept for two hours and was not tired at all when he woke up.
He pulled Kabuja and wanted to rush to Longta Town first and find the cell phone signal to contact Lucy.
In addition to telling Lucy about his progress, he also needs to know about Lucy's contact with the equipment agent yesterday.
If Draculamo cannot purchase these small equipment, you need to contact the domestic manufacturer immediately.
The girl Lily ran over happily and wanted to follow them to the town. When she went out, she saw them parked in two Lindao motorcycles in the chief's courtyard, surrounded by many children watching the fun and villagers. The two of them were eager to ride on the motorcycle, but unfortunately they had no keys to drive away.
Seeing Cao Mo and Kabuja went out early in the morning, the onlookers scattered.
Although the cassava, the staple food of the locals, has a poor taste, drought resistance, high starch yield, and simple field management. The villagers work in the fields for at most one or two hours a day, and they usually do nothing. In the tribe, ordinary villagers have no employment opportunities except gold mining teams.
The strange people and things in the tribe are particularly easy to attract onlookers; Cao Mo has long been accustomed to it, and the same is true in other places in Kanem.
Cao Mo made it clear to Ovema yesterday that before the new equipment was transported, the gold mining team continued to mine according to the traditional method, but at this time he saw that several of the onlookers were workers from the gold mining team.
He didn't see Owema, nor did he know if Owema didn't feel at all relieved his words. With resistance, he started to release the Mustang today.
"Come here!"
Cao Mo shouted at a young man not far away.
Yesterday afternoon, the old chief Felician and Ovema introduced the workers of the gold mining team to him, and drank together in the evening and watched them dance. Cao Mo had some impression of this young man.
Yesterday, most of the people in the Gold Picking Team were quite reserved in front of him.
Under normal circumstances, it takes a long time for Cao Mo to have a deeper understanding of these workers and make distinctions.
However, his keen intuition told him that the young man had a strong curiosity and positive expectations for him to take over the Gold Collecting Team yesterday.
Seeing his nervous look now, Cao Mo called him over and asked, "What's your name? Can you drive a motorcycle?"
"My name is Botu..." The young man came over, looked at the smooth and rough body of Lindao Off-road with envy, and shook his head.
"It's very easy. You can accompany us to the town first and ask Kabuja to teach you when you come back."
Cao Mo must consider how to take over and manage the gold mining team next. Owema is still in a resistant mood, so he has to select three or five people from the gold mining team to win over and train them as typical examples, and slowly change the attitude of local villagers and other people in the gold mining team towards him.
After a brief chat, Cao Mo found that Potu was good at English. He had studied in the municipal and received primary education. Potu even thought that the current production method of the Gold Coach team was too simple, so he made suggestions to Owema, thinking that the old chief could add some small equipment, but he was not answered by Owema.
Most people in the gold mining team were still incredible that Cao Mo, a foreigner, took over the gold mine, but Porto was somewhat expecting it. Owe immediately did not inform him to go to work in the morning, so he ran around and wanted to contact Cao Mo, but he was very nervous.
Some ideas have not been sorted out yet, and Cao Mo did not make trouble for Ovema for the time being, so he asked Potu to go directly to the town with them...
Chapter completed!
