The next day Yang Fan received good news from the scammer.
The land was finally sold for 72.5 million euros. The French were responsible for handling all the procedures. At the same time, the tribes south of the Dada River were relocated, and all the land was handed over to Yang Fan in the form of property rights.
Yang Fan invested US$50,000 to resettle the black tribe in the desert. In addition, he promised to dig three deep wells and provide pumping equipment for them so that they could feed their camels, cattle and donkeys.
They were seriously short of water, so they gave them money and dug wells, and the black people moved happily.
When Yang Fan saw the donkey, he finally remembered what the use of this desert grassland was. It could be used to raise donkeys.
Donkey breeding is big business. In China, donkeys really became popular overnight thanks to donkey hide gelatin.
Donkey-hide gelatin is a jelly-like substance refined from donkey skin. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that donkey-hide gelatin has endless functions such as nourishing blood and nourishing yin, anti-aging, aphrodisiac, treating insomnia and cough, etc.
As one of the most valuable traditional Chinese medicines, the price of donkey-hide gelatin has temporarily cooled down after the government regulated it in 1994. However, after entering the 21st century, the demand for donkey-hide gelatin has grown rapidly. The middle class who pay attention to the quality of life and are willing to spend money, coupled with the fact that they have always been interested in donkey-hide gelatin,
The loyal older generation worked together to make Donkey popular again.
In 2015-2016, at least 1.8 million donkey skins were traded around the world.
Most of these skins are shipped to China and used to make donkey hide gelatin. When donkey meat is roasted, a lot of it is donkey meat from Africa. Such a hot market has caused the price of the whole donkey to rise.
Africa is the main source of donkey imports outside of China. The local desert grasslands are very suitable for raising donkeys. The price of local donkeys in Africa has risen from US$60 10 years ago to about US$300 now.
The biggest problem with the land that Yang Fanxin bought is the lack of water. Raising livestock and growing pasture require a lot of water. But this problem can be solved.
In fact, there are abundant underground water resources in deserts, rivers, deserts, and Gobi areas.
This water is left over from geological changes hundreds of millions of years ago. Some of it is formed by seasonal rivers seeping into the ground. Whether it is the Sahara Desert or the Taklimakan Desert, there are abundant water resources underground.
Exploration in recent years has discovered that the Taklimakan Desert in Xinjiang has abundant water resources underground due to tens of millions of years of water seepage from the Tarim River.
Under this desert with an area of 330,000 square kilometers, the storage capacity of groundwater is as high as 228 trillion cubic meters.
The Sahara Desert near Chichi is estimated to store up to about 375,000 cubic kilometers of fresh water underground. This is the runoff of the Yellow River for half a year. The water in the desert is all drinkable fresh water.
The land Yang Fan bought has so many seasonal rivers on the surface. Where does the water go during the rainy season? Most of it seeps into the ground. So there must be fresh water underground. And the reserves are very large.
As for why our country does not develop the fresh water underground in the Taklimakan Desert, the main reason is that the decline of groundwater will affect the ecological environment, and large amounts of extraction will cause ground collapse.
But in Africa, who would care about this? If Yang Fan pumps out water to raise donkeys, no one will care about it.
Yang Fan had to do something when he bought this place, otherwise he would attract suspicion.
Nowadays, raising donkeys to make money is naturally the best way to cover up.
Because of the huge market demand, the number of domestic donkeys has dropped sharply year by year from about 10 million in 1998. From 2016 to 2019, the number of donkeys in my country only remained at about 2.6 million.
In 2020, due to the suspension or conversion of some large-scale farms, there was a serious loss of female donkeys. As a result, the number of donkeys in the population dropped to 2.324 million, a decrease of 277,000 from 2019.
At present, Inner Mongolia ranks first in the country with a population of 613,000 head, accounting for %. Followed by Liaoning and Gansu, both have a population of more than 300,000 head, and Xinjiang, Yunnan, Hebei and other places have a population of more than 100,000 head.
Yang Fan's family is near a pastoral area and he knows a lot about the breeding industry. His brothers also know it very well. They have been used to raising livestock since they were little.
My hometown is very poor. If I recruit thousands of people to raise donkeys, there will be no problem at all. It can also be regarded as providing employment for my hometown.
With the impact of African swine fever, the price of donkey meat has gradually increased. Now the domestic market price of one kilogram of donkey meat exceeds 90 yuan. In restaurants, it costs more than 100 yuan.
Yang Fan thought in his mind that since donkey meat, donkey skin, and donkey internal organs were so expensive, it would be better to build a slaughtering and cooked food processing plant directly in Africa. The braised donkey meat would be packaged in vacuum aluminum foil and shipped to domestic sales.
Donkey skin is a good thing. Now Xinghe Agricultural Products sells wild Chinese medicinal materials. The purchasing customers are all top domestic Chinese medicine manufacturers.
You can consider cooperating with them to build a factory in Africa. You will provide the factory, workers, and raw materials yourself, and they will provide the secret recipe and technical guidance. The products will be sold back to the country. It will definitely be a good deal with huge profits.
Of course, the soil and water support the donkey.
As we all know, the best donkey-hide gelatin must be made from donkeys from Shier Mountain in Shandong.
In Daming, you can first send people to Shandong to buy Shi'er Mountain. Hehe, this way you can monopolize the domestic donkey hide gelatin raw materials. Modern Shi'er Mountain cannot raise too many donkeys. The natural environment is not as good as that of Daming.
good.
Yang Fan checked it on his mobile phone and calculated it based on the ratio of raw materials to 2:1. The domestic demand for donkey-hide gelatin for one year requires 3.55 million donkey skins. The current domestic gap reaches 70%.
Except for the skin, the rest of the donkey meat is roasted. It is very easy to sell. It nourishes yin and beauty, nourishes the kidneys and spleen, which men and women do not need. The internal organs are also marinated, which is very easy to sell. The whole body of the donkey is covered
Baby, there's nothing left.
Donkey-hide gelatin boiled from donkey skin is known as a blood-enhancing weapon, and its price is comparable to gold.
And donkey meat is also very valuable. If you go to a restaurant to cut two kilograms, it will cost you hundreds of yuan. The meat of donkey is fresh and tender, fat but not greasy, thin but not old, so it is loved by many people.

As the saying goes, dragon meat is in the sky and donkey meat is underground, which is enough to show the status of donkey meat in gourmet food. It is difficult not to make money in this business. The more Yang Fan thinks about it, the more beautiful he becomes,
The saliva was left behind.
Xiao Niangpi saw that Yang Fan was letting go again and still giggling there, and her mouth was watering.
He sighed, wondering what the master had thought of. He was suffering from hysteria here. He took out his handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth lovingly.
Only then did Yang Fan wake up. He looked at Xiao Niangpi in surprise. Lin Yueru covered her mouth and snickered.
"Master, what are you thinking of doing? You drooled and you didn't even know how to wipe it."
Yang Fan said sheepishly: "I thought of a delicious dish called Donkey Meat Shao Shao. Have you tried it?"
As soon as Xiao Niangpi heard about the delicious food, her eyes immediately lit up. She took Yang Fan's hand and said, "I haven't eaten it before. I haven't eaten it before. Where can I get it? I want to eat it."
Xiao Niangpi knows that whatever Yang Fan says is delicious, it is very delicious. My husband is the best gourmet in the Ming Dynasty. Now that I heard about donkey meat roasted on fire, my mouth is watering.
Lin Yueru also immediately said: "Sir, the porters in the capital have raised a lot of donkeys. There are donkeys everywhere. It is very convenient for us to buy them and kill them for meat."
Yang Fan checked and found that the donkey meat in Hejian was cooked using Bohai donkeys. But Taihang donkeys were more delicious. Yang Fan said, "Send someone to buy a Taihang donkey and come back. Are there any servants who know how to butcher?"
"Okay, Chen San knows how to kill pigs, which his family has inherited for three generations in Zunhua. Just leave it to him to buy and kill." Xiao Niangpi said excitedly immediately.
"I'll take out the oven that burns honeycomb briquettes later, and I'll teach you how to make donkey meat on fire and marinate donkey meat." Yang Fan said happily.
The most delicious and fulfilling food is what you make yourself. Yang Fan likes to take the two ladies to make delicious food. This way it tastes the most delicious.
