"Tanzania itself has hundreds of millions of tons of iron ore reserves." On the data board, Sun Dahai was reporting to Lin Hai that it didn't take much time for them to find suitable mineral deposits around the base of Mount Kilimanjaro, "Zambia has more copper ore reserves. It's just that the major mines that have been identified are already monopolized by the big mining companies of various countries, and it is unlikely that we will reach out to those places unless the Zambian government changes its mind, or we use force to seize them. ”

"Isn't there a mine that has no owner?" Lin Hai frowned, and asked anxiously, he was very short on time, not only to go to Mexico with Cohen of Future Technology Company? Hartman's meeting, as well as the pressure from Anya's side, she was under pressure from the family and the group company to help him speed up the mining plan, "With our technology, isn't there anything to discover?" Or are there no new discoveries in your plane? ”

"Of course there will be new discoveries." Sun Dahai nodded and shook his head again, "But we have searched according to those locations, and the earth in this parallel space does not have those veins in the same location. This shows that although they are similar equal spaces, some things are not necessarily the same. Just like there are secret caves in two spaces on Mount Kilimanjaro, but there is a difference in the distribution of mineral deposits, where there are mineral deposits in the other space, but there are no in this space, and where there are mineral deposits in this space, there is no place in the other space. ”

"Stop, stop, stop!" Feeling that Sun Dahai's last few words had the feeling of being stunned, Lin Hai hurriedly shouted a pause, "What are you trying to say?" Do you want to say that it is useless to get here based on the distribution of mineral deposits in parallel space? Or is there nothing you can do about it? ”

"I mean, we stumbled upon veins that weren't on the map of mineral deposits in another plane and plane. We found a never-before-registered copper vein in Zambia at a fairly high grade of 10% to 13%, with storage estimated at around 600 million tonnes. The reason why it has not been discovered before. Probably because the copper vein was deep in a forest, and because of some geomagnetic interference, no one else could find it. It was only after mobilizing a large remote sensing reconnaissance satellite recently launched by Wang Hammer that we discovered the existence of that vein. ”

"The launch of a new satellite so soon? Why don't I see the report? Other than that. You first send someone to hold the veins, and then find a way to get the right to mine the veins from the Zambian government. ”

"The report should have been submitted a long time ago, maybe you haven't noticed, sir, you can look it up later. As for mining rights, Zambia has previously struck us with a consignment of arms. I think we can give them mining rights in exchange. ”

"Mining rights? What mining rights? At this moment, Anya had already arranged the affairs of her own company, finished the call, walked in, and just heard Sun Dahai's last half of the sentence, "Have you found the veins that have not been booked so quickly?" ”

"Of course, we're very efficient." Lin Hai said with a smile, "We found a copper vein in Zambia that has not yet been discovered, which is a rich mine. Discussions are under way to legally obtain mining rights from the Zambian government. After all, we don't want to get into trouble just yet. ”

"Bonanza? Are you sure it's a bonanza? "Hear here. Anya was very surprised, after all, Zambia has a very long history of mining, and even when the people of Country Y colonized it, it was difficult to say that the veins that have not yet been discovered.

"It's a bonanza with reserves of about 600 million tonnes grading 10% to 13%, which is quite a bonanza." Lin Hai repeated the data reported by Sun Dahai once, "This vein alone can solve all my current financial pressure." ”

"The premise is that we can successfully take this vein." Anya said seriously. "Let's not talk about our upfront investment and when we can start recovering our money. Just being able to take that vein would cost us a lot of time and energy. You know, such a vein, once this news is spread. It has attracted countless powerful mining companies to compete. Compared with those real mining giants, even my family, it can't be compared. ”

"That's the result of completely formal means." Lin Hai shrugged his shoulders and said, "Although I said that in order to avoid getting into more trouble, we must get the vein by legal means. But I didn't say that all means should come above board. Zambia is secretly firing against an arms company affiliated with Iron Eagle. A considerable amount of arms was ordered, and we tried to obtain the right to mine that vein on the condition of this batch of arms. ”

"I don't know much about that, but to be honest, I don't think the Zambian government would give up a vein that would bring more wealth for a few weapons."

"That's not a small one." Lin Hai also called up a report at this time, which was the list of arms purchased by Zambia before, "Because our things have always been cheap and have good performance, Zambia has not bought less of our weapons." 72 tanks, 36 self-propelled guns, 12 helicopter gunships, 330 armored vehicles, 10,000 rifles and 10 corresponding bullets, the total amount amounted to 200 million M gold. It should have been worth 500 million, but 200 million of them, we asked them to pay for it in minerals, and the other 100 million was discounts and favors. You must know that Zambia's military expenditure is only 140 million M a year, and the purchase of these weapons has far exceeded the military expenditure, and if we had not agreed to pay in installments, they would not have even been able to take out 200 million in cash, let alone 500 million. And now, we will pay for the mining rights of that vein, in exchange for the weapons and equipment, and we will still pay for the mining rights, and it is not unlikely, that they will agree. Judging from the information I just checked, the conditions of other companies are not as good as ours. ”

Anya said with some distress: "But in this case, other companies that are jealous of this vein may use their black hands, and at that time, your plan to avoid trouble will go bankrupt." ”

"That's why I said we're going to do both." Lin Hai, who also knew about this possibility, was just as depressed, he said, "In addition to using formal means to obtain mining rights, our side will also send personnel to deter by force." In addition, I will go to Mexico in a few days to see if I can talk to the people of country M about cooperation, and then ask them not to make trouble for us in the matter of Zambia. It's just that in this way, your company is likely to be regarded as having worked closely with Iron Eagle, and it is likely that your industry will be retaliated by some forces. ”

"You're right, that's a problem. Not only will we be considered to have something to do with Iron Eagle because of this, but so will the Wayne Company, and even you will be suspected. Although I can explain it by the reason that I have cooperated many times because I was once rescued by Iron Eagle, I can't explain clearly that you have purchased mining rights with the Zambian government army, as a mercenary, no matter what the reason, it is unlikely that you will give up such a high interest for your partner, which is a full amount of 400 million M gold. ”

"So with regard to the matter of mining rights with the Zambian government, we need to study it again to minimize the trouble that this may bring." Lin Hai rubbed his temples, and he also had a headache, "These things, the more I think about them, the more troublesome they become, but I can't solve them." It's really not possible, or we can secretly mine that vein, right? No one knows about that vein anyway......"

"Do you think that after a long time, no one will notice the problem? Don't forget, although the discovered and proven veins are being mined, this does not mean that the mining companies are not looking for other new sources. You must know that modern human society will only get bigger and bigger for all kinds of resources, but resources will not fall from the sky and appear out of thin air. The international copper production is currently relatively stable, and if there is a sudden unexpected supply, it will naturally attract the attention of others. ”

"We can't consume so much self-production and self-consumption, and your company also wants to see money." At this time, Lin Hai also reacted, "In this way, we will go to talk to the Zambians as planned for the time being, but the negotiators will be sent by you." As for the arms matter, it is up to us, in private, to talk to the Zambians. (To be continued.) )
