The construction of the mining area started. Cao Mo kept an eye on the mine for another month to ensure that all processes were smooth and there would be no major mistakes. The mining operations were also stable. Only then did he have time to return to Dracula.
Moxie lasted two days.
Guo Jian is running around in Longta these days.
Several times when Cao Mo went to the town to purchase supplies, he saw Guo Jian, Xu Ling and their people negotiating with the merchants in Longta Town, but everyone just glanced at them and passed by.
The two sides did not spit at each other in the street, and the Chinese people were quite friendly outside.
Looking at the scale and types of supplies they purchased, Cao Mo knew that they had already gained something in Longta.
It was normal to not see Guo Jian when he returned to Draculamore, but Yang Deshan still didn't return to Kanem from the country, which made Cao Mo a little strange.
He caught Song Yuqing, who had just washed her hair and was standing in front of the balcony wiping it with a dry towel, and asked:
"What happened in the country? Xie Sipeng, Guo Jian and the others found out in Longta. A few days ago, they were purchasing materials on a large scale - Yang Deshan should have invested a lot of money? Why didn't he just take a look?
Leave it to Guo Jian to take charge?"
"The group seems to be integrating into an overseas investment division. Mr. Yang is probably unable to escape from this matter," Song Yuqing said.
"The group wants to set up an overseas investment division?" Cao Mo was slightly startled and asked in surprise.
It's not that he doubted Song Yuqing's source of information.
Song Yuqing was four years older than Cao Mo, but she applied to Dongsheng after graduating from college, which was two or three months earlier than Cao Mo.
However, Song Yuqing's husband, Zhou Jun, was a long-time employee of Dongsheng. She later worked in the finance department near the top. She was beautiful and well-liked. She was far away in Draculamore and was accompanied by a bunch of colleagues every day.
Chatting and gossiping on QQ has much more gossip than Cao Mo, who only stayed in a machine repair shop for two years before going abroad.
"The group really wants to integrate and establish an overseas investment division. Yang Deshan wants to fight for power and profit. There is really no way out. I don't know if the group will increase investment in us, or will the West African branch increase investment after changing the boss?
"Cao Mo said with emotion.
"That's right, I've been worried about this for the past few days, so you don't have to worry about anything." Song Yuqing said.
"Haha, that's right!" Cao Mo said with a haha.
He thought that if the group's new overseas investment division focused on developing overseas markets in Africa, it would be difficult for him to stay in the West African branch and get a salary for free.
However, the Ibogu gold mining is gradually getting back on track, and even if he is fired from the West Africa branch, it seems to have no impact.
"Yang Deshan, are you going to stop interfering in Guo Jian's affairs?" Cao Mo asked.
"How can we mix things up now if we don't know what's going on?"
Song Yuqing's priority is to keep the good job in front of her.
In Draculamore, her salary and subsidy standards are much higher than those of Cao Mo. She officially earns more than 20,000 US dollars a year, which is enough to live a luxurious life in Draculamore by hiring nannies, drivers, and bodyguards.
Even in China, her income is considered a high salary among white-collar workers.
Speaking of this, Song Yuqing said with resentment,
"Besides, they are not happy for me to get involved again."
Cao Mo smiled. When Yang Deshan came to Xu Sheng, he didn't explicitly say that he wanted to give Song Yuqing shares.
Now Xie Sipeng is involved, and Xie Sipeng has resources, funds, and channels, so his shareholding must not be low. If it is shared with Yang Deshan and Xu Sheng, it will be even lower. He also needs to give some comfort to Guo Jian, just
It is even more impossible to leave it to Song Yuqing.
"My hands are so tired. My hair is too thick and it's too difficult to dry. But in this weather like Dracula, it's so uncomfortable if my hair isn't dried. If I had known better, I wouldn't have washed my hair!"
Dracula Mo was experiencing a normal power outage at this time. There was no need to use the hair dryer after washing her hair. Song Yuqing stood on the balcony with her head tilted and rubbed her hair with a dry towel. Her T-shirt tilted down, revealing a delicate collarbone, but after a while she
My arms were so sore that I couldn't bear it.
The rainy season in Dracula Mo has not passed yet, and the air is humid and hot. It will be particularly uncomfortable if you don’t wash your hair without drying it. Song Yuqing also loves beauty and has long hair like a waterfall. She will suffer if she doesn’t take care of it any day.
No.
"Sister Yuqing, let me help you."
Cao Mo obediently took the dry towel from Song Yuqing's hand, but when he saw Song Yuqing reaching out to grab the collar, he wanted to throw the towel downstairs and let Song Yuqing do what she was supposed to do.
If you look at it twice, you will see that her meat is not missing even one ounce!
"What did Guo Jian and the others discover?" Cao Mo asked casually when he saw that Song Yuqing really had no intention of getting involved with Yang Deshan, Guo Jian and the others.
"The tribe where they found the gold mine is not very far from you. It seems to be called Qiao Nai Village. According to them, the Qiao Nai Gold Mine is no worse than the Ibogu Gold Mine, but what can be mined is rock gold, and no placer gold has been found.
Xu Sheng, Xie Sipeng and others seem to have mainly mined placer gold in China before. I don't really understand, what is the difference between placer gold and rock gold?" Song Yuqing asked Cao Mo with big bright eyes.
"Rock gold mines contain gold sand and gold slag in the rock formations, which can be collected after crushing. However, as the rock formations break and the depth of mining increases, investment and mining are more difficult. Of course, to truly find rich ore,
The harvest is also very great. European and American gold mining companies in Kanem mainly mine rock gold, which can be mined every year. Of course, shallow rock gold mining is not difficult, but the initial investment in equipment may be higher than they expected.
The ones are bigger,"
Cao Mo explained to Song Yuqing,
"If there are rivers developing near rock gold deposits, and the gold-bearing rock formations have been continuously weathered and eroded for thousands of years, the gold sand and gold slag in the rock formations will be peeled off little by little, and will be deposited into the river bed and valleys with the flowing water.
In the soil, excavators can collect the soil and wash it to collect gold - this is placer gold. The process of panning for placer gold is also the simplest. In ancient times, you could get a harvest by just taking a sieve and going to the river beach to pan for gold. Otherwise, how can we say that gold diggers have been there since ancient times?
Has it always been there? The Shikakugawa River happens to be developed near the Ibogu gold mine. It contains both rock gold and placer gold, but the content is a little lower. Of course, if the content hadn't been low, it would have been taken over by large European and American companies.
But they have been plundering resources in Africa since the colonial period, so how can it be the Felician family's turn to eat soup?"
"Oh, that's what happened..."
When Song Yuqing was with Cao Mo last time, she overheard the conversation between Guo Jian and Xu Sheng. When she learned that Yang Deshan had no intention of directly leaving her shares, her mind turned away and she didn't care much about the matter.
Of course, she didn't want to offend Yang Deshan and Guo Jian, and she didn't explicitly say she wanted to quit; Guo Jian, Xu Sheng and the others would occasionally go back to Dracula Mo to discuss matters, but they would not deliberately avoid her, but they knew a lot about them.
They even had a document that formally registered and established a gold mining company. Guo Jian couldn't escape, so he could only arrange for someone to send it back to Dracula Mo and asked Song Yuqing to fax it to Yang Deshan.
Song Yuqing went back to her room and showed the fax information directly to Cao Mo.
Cao Mo thought that he would not offend women in the future, but he calmly spread the information on the balcony railing and rubbed Song Yuqing's hair while reading.
Guo Jian, Xu Sheng and others discovered the Qiong Naiyan gold deposit, but they did not have the professional tools to estimate the reserves.
In fact, this was also a headache for Cao Mo at this time. He still didn't know how much potential there was in the Yibogu gold mine.
In the past few years, the scale of rock gold mining in Yibo Ancient Village has been very limited, focusing on superficial rock formations.
After Cao Mo took over, the mining of rock gold stayed on the surface of the rock formation. The difficulty of mining was low and the investment in equipment was small.
The problem is that the current rock gold mining in Yibo Ancient Village has suddenly increased by 60 to 70 times compared with the past. One month is equivalent to the previous five or six years of traditional operations, and the gold-bearing rock formations on the shallow surface will soon be mined out.
Next, you need to dig underground and deep into the rock formations.
When mining deep into rock formations, blasting techniques are much more sophisticated than today, and rock drilling and other equipment also need to be more professional.
Not only does this require a larger amount of capital investment, but the professional difficulty of judging and selecting the working surface, the layout of the mine tunnel, etc. has increased sharply, and it is no longer what the current technical strength of the gold mining team is capable of.
One advantage of the Yibo Ancient Gold Mine is that since it is difficult to continue mining shallow rock gold on the surface, it can focus on mining alluvial gold in valleys and riverbeds without the need for significant additional investment immediately.
Cao Moda can wait for placer gold mining to accumulate enough capital before going back to increase investment in rock gold mining.
The Qionai gold mine discovered by Guo Jian, Xu Sheng and others obviously did not have this condition.
Qiao Naiyan gold mine is limited by the surface topography and does not have associated placer gold mines. From the beginning, they must consider mine and mine tunnel operations with high difficulty of operation and high investment in equipment.
Judging from the information faxed back to China by Guo Jiantuo and Song Yuqing, the shallow working surface determined by the Qionai Gold Mine is equivalent to that of the Yibogu Gold Mine, and the shallow rock formations can blast and excavate approximately 8,000 to 9,000 tons of gold-bearing ore.
Their initial planned investment is 400,000 US dollars. The daily processing capacity of the stone crusher and sand making machine can reach 100 tons. The initial daily gold mining volume will not be lower than that of the Ibogu Gold Mine, but after three or four months, they will
Complete the gold mining in the shallow rock formations.
By then, they have not even recouped their initial investment in equipment, and will have to consider additional larger-scale investments.
The scale of this subsequent additional investment cannot be stopped by three to five million US dollars.
Of course, Xie Sipeng, Yang Deshan, and Xu Sheng are all much richer than Cao Mo and have more social resources. It should not be difficult to invest one million or even two to three million US dollars in the future.
What they are more concerned about now is to first determine the reserves of the Qionai gold mine. They cannot dig a mine thirty to forty meters deep and suddenly find that the gold mine is gone, or that the gold content has dropped sharply. Then their large investment in the early stage will really be lost.
I'll lose all my money.
After discussing with Xu Sheng, Xie Sipeng felt that it was difficult for them to perform well as a grassroots team. In the early stage, they could only invest a small amount to mine shallow rock gold.
They also want to ask Yang Deshan to find a regular gold mining company from China and hire one or two professional gold mine management and technical personnel with high salaries to come to Kanem. The first is to strengthen the management and technical strength of the gold mine, and the second is to clarify the
After determining the reserves of gold mines, we can then decide on additional investment in the future.
This is something Cao Mo will need to consider later, but fortunately he doesn't have to worry about it at this time.
At this time, Cao Mo also understood why Song Yuqing was so depressed.
Needless to say, the conditions in the gold mining company run by Yang Deshan, Xie Sipeng, and Xu Sheng were poor. In the beginning, they also went for a quasi-professional level, and many issues required more thorough consideration than what he had figured out on his own.
Cao Mo could even learn a lot of useful things from this material. He decided to ask Lucy to make a copy of this material later.
This actually determines that there is no place for Song Yuqing in Yang Deshan's gold mining company.
Cao Mo thought to himself that just because Song Yuqing was a woman and a beautiful woman, he couldn't think that she didn't have deep considerations and considerations...
