Chapter 115 A Different Journey

Reiter also heard that the other party did not want to disclose more. He had worked as a guide for many Chinese people in the local area, and had contact with many Chinese people. He knew that people in this country were rich and cautious.

So he changed the topic, and Leiter was more talkative: "In the past ten years, a large number of Chinese people have entered Gangguo Gold for 'gold panning', and many large mining companies or other large and small investors from Huaguo have established here. For investment, after the locals manually mine the mines, the Huaguo people come to buy them, and after they are collected, they are sold to the mining and processing smelters, and the profits are calculated at 10 times."

Everyone was quite surprised, did not expect such a high profit?
No wonder many people in China have invested in Africa in recent years.

It was once estimated that a Chinese man who went to the local village to collect mines could earn 20 million U.S. dollars in about 100 days. There is also a legendary story that happened in 2000. A Zhejiang businessman brought 15 U.S. dollars to collect mines. In the end, the profit reached 2450 million US dollars, earning a lot of money.

Gangguo Gold is rich in cobalt ore. Wherever high-grade cobalt ore is found, a large number of Gangguo people will run over, set up tents and dig underground.Sometimes the whole family goes there together.

After chatting, we were exhausted all the way, and finally arrived at Qikanbutu, where the Katanga Plateau is located.

Reiter's work as a guide also ended here, and Wang Zhe's team paid him 850 US dollars for this.

"It's really a place where the birds don't shit." Huang Jiafan looked around. Although it is the dry season now, not as scary as the rainy season, compared with the domestic ones, it is already a world of difference. After a while, I miss the air conditioner blowing in the headquarters of Shangdu comfortable days.

"Let's go, we've already contacted Ms. Wen." Fatty Wang urged everyone, and everyone carried backpacks of different sizes and finally entered a local village.

Wen Yan is the wife of Yu Fengxian, an expert in volcanic geology.

It was more than two hours after everyone arrived at the designated local village. After seeing seven or eight familiar Huaguo faces, Fatty Wang and others who had just come from China were fine, while Dr. Wen Yan’s The team felt very gracious when they saw them.

It is natural to be happy to see compatriots in this foreign country. You must know that their team has been in Africa for more than two years, and has been traveling in the Great Rift Valley of East Africa, and there is not much research funding.

Volcanic geology research is really an extremely unpopular major, and the future is not very good. Like this team, it has been in Africa for almost two years. It is not ordinary people who can survive. It all depends on the love of this major.

For example, Dr. Ye Wenyan paid out of his own pocket to support the funds. The money was actually supported by Yu Fengxian. After all, he was a scientist hired by Tianqing Company with a high salary of 300 million.

Otherwise, he would have returned to China half a year earlier because he had no funds, and he would not have been able to discover the mine vein of Qi Kambutu.

"Ms. Wenyan, I'm Wang Zhe." Fatty Wang introduced Wenyan after they met. At the same time, he took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to her. After reading it, Wenyan was sure it was correct.

"Xiao Zhang, take everyone to settle down temporarily." Wen Yan turned to her research assistant and said.

"Good Le!"

"It's hard enough. That big guy just turned into a black man." Fatty Wang said with emotion. In fact, Wen Yan is not the same. The latter laughed and said, "It's fun to be in the midst of hardship. The language barrier and customs are different, so it is difficult to integrate. Of course, ordinary people in Gangguojin are friendly to Chinese people. On the one hand, our Chinese-funded enterprises have done a lot of good things in the local area, such as building roads, digging wells, and the school. etc.; on the other hand, the salary income of employing local people is second to none. According to Gang Guojin’s GDP of 450 US dollars, the annual income of local employees in Chinese enterprises can reach more than 3000 US dollars, which is also the envy of many local people.”

Wen Yan's team has been staying in Gangguojin for more than three months, and they know more about the local area than Wang Zhe, so they consulted her. Wang Zhe knows very well that Tianqing Industry may be here in the near future. Establish a mining factory, and he also heard from Mr. Qiu's account that it is very likely that most of the projects here will be led by himself.

The conditions are a bit tough, but if the job is properly promoted, it is natural to learn about the situation here in advance when there is an opportunity, so I started to learn more about the local situation from Wenyan.

……

Wen Yan also unreservedly told Wang Zhe what she learned here.

In Gangguojin, Chinese companies usually adopt domestic employees to be responsible for the upper management, and the middle and lower levels are selected from outstanding black employees, and let them manage the lowest-level workers. Wen Yan once worked in the mine of a local Chinese-funded enterprise I saw dozens of black people receiving pre-shift training during the morning shift, and I also saw dozens of employees queuing up for body searches after leaving get off work.

Because the locals like to steal things.

"By the way, Dr. Wen, where is carnyne discovered?" Having almost understood it, Wang Zhe asked the key point, which is the ultimate purpose of coming here all this time.

"Come with me!" Wen Yan said succinctly, and after a while, she drove Wang Zhe and a young research assistant to leave the village in an off-road vehicle. Wen Yan's entire team consisted of three vehicles, one of which was It broke down last week.

After driving for about an hour and a half, the off-road vehicle stopped in a deserted no-man's land.

original.

This is the most intuitive impression for Wang Zhe. After getting out of the car, Wen Yan pointed to a mountain in front of him: "I call him Riding Kambutu Volcano. It ceased activity 1200 million years ago and is now an extinct volcano. According to our preliminary research, carbyne should have been sent up from the ground on this volcano, and we have recently conducted further investigations nearby, and it can be said with certainty that the reserves are quite astonishing."

When Wang Zhe heard this, his spirits lifted.

"There is no road ahead. Cars can no longer pass, so we can only walk." said the research assistant who accompanied him. He opened the way ahead and carried an AK on his back. The three of them headed towards the extinct volcano. It's hard to tell if it's a volcano at all.

Ten minutes later, the three came to the valley, and Wang Zhe couldn't wait to ask, "Where is it?"
