Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 2147 The Gold Mine in the Valley
Niu Xiaoqiang naturally agrees with this. The improvement of the bodyguard's ability is related to his own safety. He hopes that these bodyguards will be familiar with foreign firearms earlier.

He nodded and explained the matter to Smith.

Smith nodded immediately and let Amos make arrangements.

Then a group of people went downstairs and drove eastward under the escort of dozens of armed personnel.

The weather in Africa is actually not too hot, and the temperature in summer is lower than that in some parts of the country.However, the temperature in Africa is very balanced throughout the year, especially in central Africa, where there is basically no coolness and it never snows.

It is early spring, and the mornings in Africa are very clear, and the vegetation grows luxuriantly.

Niu Xiaoqiang sat in the back seat of the off-road vehicle with Zhang Guangmao and Smith. Amos was still driving, and Xie Jun was the co-pilot.

After seeing the scenery along the way, Niu Xiaoqiang couldn't help sighing: "The land in Africa is really fertile. You can grow anything you want. It's much better than my hometown."

Zhang Guangmao also sighed: "The apprentices here are indeed very fertile, but it is a pity that these apprentices are basically left unused. No matter how fertile the land is, no one cultivates it, it is useless."

Smith laughed and said, "It's not that I discriminate against Africans. The people here are lazy. They would rather go to receive relief and only eat two meals a day than to work. Even if some people are willing to work, the efficiency is very high." For example, to build a canal, Chinese workers can complete the work in three days. If you let the people here do it, you don’t even have to think about completing it for more than half a month. It is because of this that Africa is so backward and barren."

Niu Xiaoqiang read books about Africa in the United States, most of which were written by white people.White people do discriminate against black people, and they are not very friendly to yellow people.Niu Xiaoqiang just laughed when he heard the words, but didn't say anything.He doesn't want to get involved in this kind of issue that involves the pros and cons of race, because it seems to him very boring and meaningless.

Smith seemed to think of something when he said this, and he changed the subject: "Of course, not every African has these problems. For example, Amos is very capable, and he is very serious and responsible. It is for this reason that I have chosen him to be my personal guard captain."

Amos, who was driving, showed an unnatural smile: "Thank you boss for your compliment and recognition."

Niu Xiaoqiang laughed to himself: This Amos is quite similar to the previous Rocky, they are serious and taciturn.

The three then chatted about some local customs, during which Niu Xiaoqiang deliberately told the distribution of forces around the land.He mainly wanted Zhang Guangmao to have a bottom line in his mind.

After driving for more than 20 minutes, the convoy stopped at a mountain pass.

There are two big mountains standing on the left and right sides of this mountain pass, one of which is mining ore, and Fang's heavy trucks are all driving on the winding stone road on the mountain.

After getting out of the car, Niu Xiaoqiang watched for a while with the telescope provided by Smith, and then asked with a smile: "Smith, this should be the copper mine owned by your family, right?"

Smith nodded: "Yes, this mountain contains rich copper resources. Judging from the current mining progress, it can still be mined for at least 40 years."

Copper ore is a very important ore resource, and the price of copper ore in the international market has always been relatively strong.Hearing this, Niu Xiaoqiang couldn't help admiring: "This is a hen that always lays golden eggs. No wonder you wanted to protect your own interests when you borrowed money. If it were me, I would do the same."

Smith smiled complacently: "Our family is just lucky and picked a good place, otherwise our family can only be a farmer here now."

The biggest reason why many foreign businessmen invest in Africa is that they will basically not lose money. Even if the land to be purchased has no mineral resources, you can still engage in agriculture and animal husbandry on the land.Of course, the premise is that you have the means to protect yourself.

The situation in Africa has always been unstable. If there is no means of self-protection, you may be swallowed by someone in a certain turmoil.

Smith is the best example. If it weren't for Niu Xiaoqiang's help, their family would probably have gone bankrupt now.

At this point, he expressed his gratitude to Niu Xiaoqiang for his help, then he leaned close to Niu Xiaoqiang's ear and said in a low voice: "Our gold mine is in the valley of these two mountains, do you want to go in and have a look? "

This gold mine was discovered by Smith and Tina. When he asked Niu Xiaoqiang to borrow money, he used the shares of the gold mine as collateral.

According to the agreement between the two, Niu Xiaoqiang owns 20.00% of the equity of this gold mine, and all other gold mined from the gold mine will also be sold to him.

With this gold resource, Niu Xiaoqiang can obtain hundreds of millions of dollars in mortgage loans from Citibank every year, which is one of his stable sources of income.In addition to the gold channel in Africa, Niu Xiaoqiang also has another gold source channel in Central America.

Adding up these two channels, Niu Xiaoqiang can reap nearly one billion U.S. dollars in profits every year without doing anything.

Hearing Smith mentioned the gold mine at this moment, Niu Xiaoqiang nodded slightly and said: "It's okay to go and have a look, but before that, it's better for us to implement the oil exploration first."

Smith hummed, and told an accompanying assistant, "Tom, take Minister Zhang and others to the oil field for preliminary geological exploration."

Tom nodded immediately, turned around and took Zhang Guangmao and others to leave in the car.

Before leaving, Niu Xiaoqiang whispered a few words to Zhang Guangmao. He didn't reveal anything about the gold mine, but said that he would go to the mine with Smith and meet him later.

After Zhang Guangmao left, Smith led Niu Xiaoqiang and Xie Jun towards the valley.

In order to prevent the leak of the gold mine, Smith did not build a road leading to the gold mine. According to him, the gold mine was mined by the chief who was married to him and led people to mine it.

The chieftain is like an emperor in Africa, and has a very high prestige in the tribe, so this arrangement can prevent anyone from leaking the secrets to the greatest extent.

The two of them walked forward with their personal bodyguards. After climbing over the rock pile at the mountain pass, they walked forward for nearly half an hour, and finally arrived at the location of the gold mine.

Here is a ring-shaped valley, surrounded by towering rocky peaks, which are just blocked.If you don't go inside and check it out, you will never know that there is a gold mine hidden here.
