Cao Mo didn't know how much Lu Yan's resentment towards him had increased. He left Draculamore the next day, and Song Yuqing was to replace Wang Wen and take charge of the financial supervision of the Cornero Lake Industrial Park.
Let’s rush back to Ibogu together.
The situation of returning to Draculamore this time was much more complicated than Cao Mo expected, but that was it for the time being. Ibogu had more things waiting for him to deal with when he came back.
Kabuga and his people are still studying in the country. In addition to Wendy Skaff and Lucy, the operation management, engineering and technical personnel that Ibogu has recruited since last year are basically qualified for their positions. There are no operations in mining areas and factories.
what is the problem.
The supporting projects of the new transmission network and the Gray Crow River Ladder Hydropower Station are also nearing completion, and power will be officially supplied to Draculamore City after New Year's Day of 2006.
This will not only allow Sika Aidet Grid Company to obtain a certain amount of income on the day the new transmission grid is completed, Cao Mo and Stali will also be able to obtain a net cash flow of more than 400,000 US dollars every month.
In addition to the Yeyangxia Hydropower Station built by China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation with an advance investment of more than 18 million US dollars, Cao Mo also started the construction of three new small hydropower stations on the Yibogu River and Gray Crow River at the end of October.
The scale of the three small hydropower stations is even smaller than that of the first Ibogu River Ladder Hydropower Station, with a combined annual power generation of only 20 million kWh. However, the completion of these three small hydropower stations can regulate the flow of electricity to the Yeyangxia Hydropower Station.
The flow of water from the upstream reservoir stabilizes the annual power generation of the Yeyangxia Hydropower Station.
China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation suggested that these three small hydropower stations be constructed simultaneously as supporting projects. In addition to Cao Mo's own one million US dollars, he mainly used the two million US dollars trust fund provided by the United Bank of Oman to invest together.
In mid-December, Kanem's finished cement had dropped to US$280 per ton, but for Ibogu Cement Factory, it still had unimaginable huge profits for domestic cement manufacturers.
During this period, through continuous technological upgrading and transformation, the daily production capacity of Ibogu Cement Plant has also been steadily increased by 500 tons.
Song Yuqing no longer makes two trips to Yibogu.
Cao Mo invested a lot of energy in the construction of cement plants and gold mining operations areas, and has been constantly undergoing renovation and upgrading.
In addition to planting oil palm, cocoa trees and other cash crops in the open areas inside and outside the fence, bougainvillea and jacaranda trees are also transplanted for beautification. However, the buildings and mechanical equipment in the factory area are compared with those of modern mines and factories in China.
, still too crude.
However, who would have thought that even though Ibogu Cement is so simple, it has continued to operate until now, with a daily net profit of up to one hundred thousand US dollars?
In March, Yibogu Cement used the clinker stockpiled in the early stage to carry out back-end process production, and it was officially put into operation in May.
In September, the first stepped hydropower station on the Iboko River was completed to supply power to the cement factory. As of late December, this cement factory, which is considered to be extremely crude in the country, had harvested a total of up to 100,000 yuan during this cement storm.
Eighteen million dollars in excess profits.
Of course, as cement prices continue to fall, the daily profit margin of Ibogu Cement Factory is also shrinking step by step.
This is why Cao Mo is eager to join the new factory.
The current Ibogu Cement Plant's technology is still too backward, and its yield rate is low. As a result, the cost per ton of finished cement is twice as high as domestically. Cao Mo is thinking about building a new plant, not only hoping to increase the annual output to 600,000 to 700,000 tons.
, and even more hope that the production cost can be as close as possible to the domestic average level.
In this way, Felician Building Materials Company will be almost invincible in terms of business operations, and will continue to provide him with huge profits once it is completed.
Song Yuqing helped Cao Mo sort out his finances and saw that in addition to the new investments he had made previously, he also saw that in the past two months, Cao Mo's private company had accumulated 1.5 billion naira (five hundred million naira) for the construction of a new cement plant.
Ten thousand U.S. dollars) of capital was also shocked by the ability of Yibogu, an inconspicuous corner, to attract money.
This does not include the gold that Cao Mo started depositing into the personal safe of the United Bank of Oman in late October, which is increasing at a rate of 60 kilograms per month.
It is not difficult to imagine why Cao Mo was so eager to open up the trade chain for domestic exports of cocoa beans, cocoa butter, and cocoa powder.
It is relatively easy to exchange three to five million U.S. dollars per month in Kanem as long as you pay a certain handling fee, but it is difficult to exchange three to five million U.S. dollars.
Although Kanem has nearly 100 billion US dollars in foreign exchange income every year through crude oil and other trade, Kanem also has strict restrictions on the outflow of foreign exchange.
The economic and political situation in Kanem is unstable, and the local currency, the naira, has been in the process of slow depreciation. If a large amount of profits cannot be invested in reproduction and cannot be exchanged for other currencies or assets, in one or two years, the depreciation losses will be painful.
.
Of course Cao Mo could stay in China until New Year's Day and then return to Kanem, but time waits for no one.
When he comes back this time, in addition to raising funds to expand the construction scale of the upstream hydropower station group, he also needs to prepare to build a new cement plant, build a refinery, take over the newly acquired cocoa bean processing plant, and prepare to build a larger-scale plant in the Conero Lake Industrial Park.
New processing plant.
It didn't cost much to acquire the cocoa bean processing plant in Longta Town. In addition to retaining 30% of the Sika family's shares, Cao Mo spent US$200,000 to acquire the remaining 70% of the shares.
What Cao Mo needs to do now is to register and set up a food trading company in Draculamo. Through this food trading company, he can purchase the cocoa butter and cocoa powder produced by the processing plant and export them to the country.
This way he can pass through the new sea
As well as two food trading companies registered in Draculamo, the balance control of capital flow is carried out.
Usually, a large amount of funds can be left in the accounts payable of domestic companies. If Kanem has a demand for funds, it can apply for a foreign exchange quota by paying the payment and transfer the funds to Kanem.
Of course, you can also directly invest in Kanem's projects through domestic companies and obtain foreign investment treatment. In the same way, Cao Mo can invest in domestic projects through companies registered in Draculamo and enjoy the current benefits.
Domestic preferential policies for foreign investment.
Of course, in order to reasonably avoid taxes and avoid attracting unnecessary attention, Song Yuqing suggested that Cao Mo could also register an offshore company in a tax haven.
Everything Cao Mo did in Yibogu before can be said to be barbaric growth.
However, he himself is also exploring how to develop more refined things next.
Song Yuqing joined Dongsheng at the same time as Cao Mo, but Song Yuqing worked at the headquarters. Not only was the financial system her major, she was also more familiar with complex structures than Cao Mo.

Shen Ji delayed his arrival to Dracula Mo until New Year's Day. He did not stop at Dracula Mo after arriving.
Lu Yan and Huang Hebin wanted to pick him up. Shen Ji just said on the phone that he had urgent matters to deal with. Accompanied by Yang Deshan, Li Qilu, and Wang Jianzhong, they rushed directly to Yibogu to meet Cao Mo. Stop in Draculamore City.
Cao Mo didn't have much to say, so he made an appointment with Abacha and others, and drove to the Ega River and Providence River together.
These two tributaries located in the north and northeast of Longta are two other sites suitable for the construction of medium-sized hydropower stations in the upper reaches of the Lujiaochuan River. Cao Mo has also made preliminary work on water conservancy geological survey and other areas, which are suitable for the construction of hydropower stations. , and also signed a land contract agreement with the local tribe.
Of course, if Shen Ji really makes up his mind to participate, Cao Mo may not necessarily develop and construct these two medium-sized hydropower stations first. After all, the construction period of medium-sized hydropower stations is relatively long, which is not conducive to the fastest and most effective use of funds.
At present, it is more suitable to build a group of small hydropower stations near the Gray Crow River and Ibogu River. As long as there is sufficient capital investment, a batch of them can be built in three to five months.
The new natural gas power plant in Draculamo built by China Civil Engineering Construction Company in Cardiff is also nearing completion. Not only are there sufficient construction management personnel transferred from China, but the local workers recruited have become skilled after more than two years of running-in. After graduation, a group of mature foremen were trained.
Cao Mo took Shen Ji to look at the location of the hydropower station on the Ega River and the Providence River. The main reason was to make him understand that his offer of fifty million US dollars was not just an empty talk.
