(Thanks to the generosity of the new alliance leader Yunt0, I still owe a change today...) ）...

The tribes of Lonta and the surrounding areas are always unusually warm in the face of strange guests, especially in the company of regional officials like Abacha.

This can be regarded as Shen Ji and Lu Yan thoroughly appreciating the customs of the mysterious continent of Africa.

Although the Kanem border area is backward and the law and order is poor, there are 20 armed bodyguards to protect you, and there are eight off-road vehicles to provide logistical support, and the hunting trip is quite pleasant.

Six days later, the group returned to Draculamo.

At this time, Yang Deshan and Wang Jianzhong took the lead, and also officially signed a total area of 20,000 acres of oil palm fruit supply agreements with five plantations including the Sika family - which can be regarded as a successful end to Shen Ji's trip.

Cao Mo couldn't help but sigh, the prince is good, he came out to play around, his subordinates worked hard, and they were still helping him do a good job before he returned to China.

Although there is still a distance from the goal of 100,000 mu, it is still half a year before the second phase of the crushing plant is started and the new oil palm fruit supply is really needed.

Such a long time is also enough to leave plenty of buffer room for the next supply agreement negotiation.

The direct acquisition of plantations or contracted land to plant oil palm trees is a bit more complicated, but as long as the business department allocates funds, the branch is also confident to promote it step by step.

In the past few days, Xie Sipeng has been serving comfortably, and after in-depth communication, Lu Yan finally let down his guard and signed an asset acquisition intention agreement with Lana Dere Hotel.

They now wait for the third-party accounting clerk to do their due diligence before signing a formal acquisition agreement, and then lease the acquired banquet building and outbuildings to Yim Zhicheng for the operation of the casino.

Cao Mo was not involved in this matter, and he did not know the specific details, so after the hunt, he rushed back to Ibogu to deal with the affairs accumulated in the past week or so under the pretext that he wanted to stay in Longta to continue to contact customers.

The construction of the hydropower station has begun, and more than 30 workers have practiced tying steel bars on the construction site, and they are already quite smooth and skilled.

The construction of the front process of the cement plant is steadily advancing, and the use of cement clinker accumulated in the early stage has also reached more than 3,000 bags and 1560 tons of finished cement per day.

At present, there are as many as 30 or 40 trucks parked at the entrance of the cement factory every day, all of them queuing up to sell cement with cash, and some of them have to wait in line for two days to buy cement.

Although the price of finished cement in the Dracula building materials market did not soar further, it was also the result of a large number of projects under construction that had been forced to come to a halt – while some projects faced huge fines and compensation for delays, and they wanted to stop but did not dare to stop.

Under Kabuja's negotiations, the equipment manufacturer Cao Tianqiang finally agreed to sign the supply agreement.

Cao Mo took the 19-kilogram dog's head gold as collateral for the advance payment, and Cao Tianqiang first helped them order a complete set of mining equipment from China, but Cao Tianqiang emphasized that after the equipment entered Kanem, Cao Mo still needed to pay 80% of the payment before it was sent to the door for installation and commissioning.

It was almost a month to a month and a half later, and Cao Mo should have plenty of money in his hands by then.

Yang Deshan promised to send the two engineers to the Ibogu gold mine for technical guidance, and it has been four days since they were picked up by Kabuja.

The two engineers, one named Guo Changlin and the other named Liu Hongwu, are not very old, and they are equivalent to Guo Jian, Shen Ji, Lu Yan and others, both of whom have five to six years of front-line work experience in a formal gold mining company in China after graduating from university.

Cao Mo hurried back to the mine, mainly to meet Guo Changlin and Liu Hongwu.

Cao Mo himself only made his debut halfway, and whether it was rock gold mining or placer gold mining in the Yibo Ancient Gold Mine, he pondered and practiced after collecting information on the Internet.

Although the current mining scale of the Yibogu gold mine is okay and the profit margin is also very large, whether it is management or actual mining operations, what level is it at, and how many loopholes can be filled, Cao Mo does not count in his heart.

Kabuja, Potu, and Pari are even more incomprehensible.

Cao Mo urgently needs professionals with actual front-line work experience to come and check his pulse and strengthen the training and guidance of employees.

Before the complete set of mining equipment was introduced, it was difficult to achieve much success in rock gold mining, but the rock gold mining of the Jonai gold mine also faced the same troubles.

Guo Changlin and Liu Hongwu still thought and pondered about how to mine rock gold with the existing rudimentary equipment, and put forward a lot of pertinent opinions, which made Cao Mo feel that the $6,000 was still worth it.

Cao Mo lived in the mine for two days, Guo Changlin and Liu Hongwu came to him privately, saying that they wanted to stay here, but Cao Mo couldn't pay anyone an annual salary of 300,000 yuan, and it was impossible for them to reduce their annual salary.

Cao Mo could only wait for the conflict between them and Xu Sheng and Xu Ling's uncle and nephew to intensify, and there was no way to gain a foothold in the Qiao Nai Gold Mine to see if it was possible to take them in with a lower annual salary, such as 100,000 or 150,000 yuan.

When the time comes, Cao Mo gritted his teeth and raised the annual salaries of Kabuja, Lucy, Wendy Scaf, and Owema to between 100,000 and 150,000 yuan, which can barely be accepted.

However, if their annual salaries are raised to 300,000, Cao Mo himself will have to flip the table.

Do the capitalists have a surplus?

The central and western regions of Kanem are rich in gold, which are monopolized by large European and American gold mining companies, and there is no shortage of experienced mining engineers in the country.

Cao Mo had also interviewed several engineers before, but he intuitively felt that when he came into contact with these people, he either had no intention of coming to the door, or his level was very sparse and he was fired by the original company.

Until now, Cao Mo has not found a suitable candidate in Kanem.

Of course, Cao Mo reflected on it, and another key reason was that the monthly salary he offered to Kabuja and Wendy Scafe was still slightly lower.

At Kanem's gold mining company, experienced engineers are well paid, and if he can only pay three or four hundred dollars a month, it will be difficult for him to make a good job.

Cao Mo learned from the pain, felt that the flesh on his body was about to be torn off, and summoned Kabuja, Lucy, Wendiscaf, and Owema, and announced that in view of their excellent performance, their supervisor-level monthly salaries would be increased from the current $600 to $800, and that when the cement plant and hydropower station were completed one after another, they would be further raised.

"Mr. Cao, you are so generous!" Lacey enthusiastically wanted to give a warm hug of "give you a monkey", and Cao Mo hurriedly pushed her towards Kabuja and let them hug and celebrate......

............

............

"You are always too soft-hearted, too soft-hearted, and you take all the problems on your own......"

Three days later, Shen Ji and Lu Yan left Draculamo, and Cao Mo also rushed to the airport to see them off.

In the past few days, when hunting, they got along day and night, and Shen Ji and Lu Yan also put down their shelves, but if it weren't for his damn intuition to tell Cao Mo that the superiority and arrogance in the bones of these two people were still so strong, he would have thought that he had won their friendship.

Anyway, since everyone is very united and friendly on the surface, Cao Mo has to rush to the airport to say goodbye.

Seeing Shen Ji, Lu Yan and his entourage enter the rudimentary security gate, Cao Mo and the others returned to the parking lot and prepared to drive back.

Cao Mo hummed a small tune, and her heart ached that this time she gave a large-scale salary increase to the staff, which calculated that it would increase the expenses by nearly 6,000 US dollars per month.

"Who broke your heart, why did you keep humming this song when you came back this time, you wanted to hook up with Miss Zhou, but you weren't taken care of?"

Returning to Draculamo from the airport, with a wide field of vision, Cao Mo was willing to drive by himself, Wang Wen rushed in front of Song Yuqing, sat in the passenger seat, didn't see Cao Mo's disgust, and gossiped curiously.

Jeans Zhou Han did not leave directly with Lu Yan this time.

Cao Mo was very strange when she saw her getting into Xie Sipeng's car and preparing to return to the city.

He didn't want to be involved in such a matter, and he didn't think to go over to pay attention to the details of their negotiation before, and now he didn't want to ask Zhou Han why he stayed in Draculamo this time, so as not to be mistaken by Xie Sipeng and Yang Deshan.

Back in the dormitory of the branch, Cao Mo saw Guo Jian, who had lost weight twice, and Yang De also looked relieved, Cao Mo guessed that their ship of cement had finally been completely gone.

Although Kanem is blowing a crazy cement storm and has nothing to do with them, it is good that more than 20 million yuan of funds have been successfully recovered.

It's always something to celebrate.

Guo Jian didn't know that so many things had happened in Draculamo these days, and he didn't even know that Yang Deshan wanted to kick him away, and he was more or less sorry for not being able to get in close contact with the senior management of the business department this time.

Guo Jian disappeared for several days and did not appear, Yang Deshan found an excuse for him to contact customers in Kanem Xindu Isedan, Wang Jianzhong was not easy to say, everyone had a small meeting, assigned the next work of the branch, Wang Jianzhong took people back to the press factory first.

"It's hard work to hunt with me, and I'm going to have a few days of rest. Cao Mo stretched and prepared to go back to the room in the No. 2 dormitory building for an afternoon sleep.

Yang Deshan, who was answering the phone, called Cao Mo: "Miss Zhou wants to borrow our staff dormitory temporarily, Mr. Xie will drive her over in a while - Miss Zhou is a girl, and Lu Shaolin specially instructed us to take care of her when she left, isn't it ......?"

No matter how good the scenery of the Lana Dere Hotel is and how luxurious the rooms are, if you live alone, you usually don't dare to walk into Draculamo City to wander around, and you will be irritable and bored after three or five days.

Zhou Han thought of living in their staff dormitory, usually with Song Yuqing and Wang Wen as companions, this mood Cao Mo could understand, but Yang Deshan wanted him to let out the room, so he quit, and said vaguely: "If Miss Zhou likes Steya's room, I will tell Steya and let her move to the No. 3 dormitory building - if Miss Zhou wants to live in the No. 3 dormitory building alone, anyway, Mr. Wang has a staff dormitory in the press factory, and no one lives in it......"

"Okay, when Miss Zhou comes over, I'll ask her opinion. Yang Deshan said.

Now Cao Mo is doing private work, he can earn 100,000 a year, and he also has the backer of Chen Rong, the director of the group, in Dongsheng - although the shallow relationship between Cao Mo and Chen Rong, Shen Ji and Lu Yan are completely ignored, but Yang Deshan and Wang Jianzhong still have to pay attention to it.

What's more, the branch will follow up on the oil palm supply and purchase agreement in Longta, and it will also rely on Cao Mo's close personal friendship with Abacha.

Guo Jian, who didn't know the details, was surprised how Yang Deshan's posture in front of Cao Mo became so weak.
