Chapter 15: Miss Felician (2)

After a simple meal at the old chief's house at noon, and rushed to the mine in the afternoon, Cao Mo officially took over the gold mining team, saw more than a dozen workers lazy, and waited for a long time to see Botu call Owema, who had a black face throughout the whole process.

Seeing Owema like this, Cao Mo secretly complained: Made, don't you think your face is not dark enough?

"The land, the gold mines here, have always been the property of the Felician family, and I have suggested that Mr. Felician formally register the Felician family gold mining company. What I did was to provide equipment and technical services to help Mr. Felician improve the management level of the family business and the gold production capacity. Of course, there is a fee for my services, but one day I will return to my home country, and the real gold mines and gold mining companies will eventually belong to the Felician family—Mr. Owema, I don't know why you have been so uneasy in front of me, can I steal the gold mines back to China?"

Cao Mo reprimanded Owema in front of Kabuja and Botu, and pulled Lili, who was watching the excitement, over and questioned Owema menacingly.

"Mr. Owema, do you want people to call Lily Miss Felician respectfully, or do you want her to whistle like a country chick?"

Owema was a little confused, Cao Mo, who was still low-eyed yesterday, why did his tone suddenly become tough?

Also, Cao Mo's statement at this time is a little different from what he understood yesterday.

This gringo is really bent on thinking about the Felician family, not to deceive and plunder them?

"Gather everyone together and get to work! I'm ashamed of you when I see you all serving the Felician family!"

Seeing that Owema's heart was empty, Cao Mo waved his fist even more arrogantly,

"Also, whoever dares to steal the gold dust out is stealing the property of the Felician family, and laziness is shameful theft of the Felician family's salary—and these may add a beautiful dress and a pair of smooth and beautiful little leather shoes to Miss Felician. Mr. Owema, don't you want to see Miss Felician as beautiful and charming as a girl of high society? I hope that from this day onwards you will be able to stare at everyone with fierce and sharp eyes, and not call them lazy and stealing!"

Seeing that Owema had finally regained his morale and gathered his men to resume work, Cao Mo and Kabuja, under the guidance of Botu, considered the Ibogu gold mine more carefully and seriously.

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

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

Unlike China, which has been accustomed to living in a concentrated manner since ancient times, the tribal people of Kanem live quite scattered.

The same is true of the Ibogu tribe, with more than 300 families living in the valley of the Lujiaochuan River within a radius of three or four kilometers.

To the north along the Antler River, the northernmost settlement, nearly two kilometres away from the old chief's house, the road between the jungles was already quite rough.

From the northernmost settlement to the gold mining site, there is a kilometre of virgin dense forest to traverse, and the forest is only covered with vines and vines on the trails that the gold miners had stepped on before.

Cao Mo was bitten by a snake on this road before, and when he walked this road again, he couldn't help but feel angry in his heart.

The sheds at the gold mining site are even more rudimentary, with simple wooden shelves and a roof woven with banana leaves, which can only barely shelter from the wind and rain.

At present, even the simplest placer gold machine is not in a position to be made, and Cao Mo spent the next two days to learn the traditional gold mining process.

It is better to say that it is learning, but it is better to have a deeper understanding and familiarity.

In the whole process, the blasted stones are carried back to the open space in front of the shed, and the stones are first hammered into small finger-sized gravel with a hammer.

This step is relatively easy, but it is too difficult to grind the crushed stone into powder with tools similar to stone grinding - this is much more difficult than using similar stone and wood tools in ancient China to grind noodles and rice.

In the past, more than half of the manpower of the gold mining team was wasted in this link, and women had to be used to wash the golden sand in the clear streams and rivers, and finally obtained relatively pure rock gold grains.

It is with this primitive and rough method that the gold mining team in the ancient village of Ibogu can only process about one ton of ore per day, and can produce about six or seven grams of pure rock gold per day.

There is no further removal and smelting of rock gold grains, and it is very difficult to sell them directly, and with the current low gold price, the output value of the gold mining team in Yibo Ancient Village is less than 100 US dollars per day.

After deducting the food, drink, and loss of materials and tools such as explosives for so many people, there is hardly any profit.

Seeing this, it is not difficult to understand why the old chief Felician is sitting on a gold mine, but he is still so old and shameless.

Any other equipment can not be used first, and the sand making machine must be purchased - this is the key to mining rock gold.

Of course, Cao Mo didn't expect to reach the sky in one step.

A small sand making machine can also process more than ten or twenty tons of gravel per day, which can increase the daily gold mining volume by more than ten or twenty times, and the output value can increase to three or four thousand US dollars, but the corresponding equipment investment, material consumption, and personnel wages and other costs have risen sharply.

After the shallow gold-bearing ore is mined, it will be mined deep along the vein, and the difficulty and equipment investment will further increase, which is also something that Cao Mo must consider now.

In two days, Cao Mo sorted out some ambiguous places in the process by comparing the printed materials and the actual situation on the spot.

This is to ensure that when the materials and equipment arrive, he doesn't have to worry about showing his timidity in front of Owema, Porto, and the gold miners below him, even if he can't do it well, which is a crucial step in earning the trust of the gold miners.

Next, Cao Mo left Kabuja in Yibogu Village, responsible for improving the original simple shed, because of the simplicity, even if it is an earthen wall and grass shed, it is necessary to expand an equipment storage room first.

In addition to asking Owei Bamato to blow up some ore and stock it up, Cao Mo actually suspended the process, first led the remaining manpower, widened the road along the river between the gold mining point and the tribe, and cleared the dense bushes along the road, he didn't want to be bitten by poisonous snakes again.

Cao Mo took Botu and another tribal youth, Parry, back to Draculamo in two light off-road motorcycles.

It is less than 60 kilometers from the village of Ipo to the city of Draculamo, but it takes six or seven hours to make a round trip by motorcycle, which is quite difficult, and in fact there are several short sections of country roads that are not connected, making it difficult for vehicles to pass.

Cao Mo thought to herself, this must be placed in the country, and local officials must not be scolded for?

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

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

In the end, Cao Mo did not turn his face, Cao Mo is still an employee of the West Africa branch of Dongsheng Group, and when he returned to Draculamo, he naturally returned directly to the dormitory, and his personal belongings were not thrown out of the dormitory by Yang Deshan and Guo Jian.

Lucy, the chef of the West African branch, continues to live in a rented villa at the branch.

Of course, Lucy has only been on the phone with Cao Mo for the past few days, and she is very bottomless in her heart.

When she saw Cao Mo returning, she happily wanted to hug Cao Mo with her strong body, and with a passion of "I want to give you a baby", Cao Mo was frightened to dodge, repeatedly emphasizing to her that the way Chinese express their feelings is much more subtle than that of Yoruba.

Cao Mo set off from the ancient village of Yibo at dusk, and returned to Draculamo It was late at night, Cao Mo was asking Botu and Parry to help Lucy prepare some food together, when Song Yuqing heard the sound of him talking to Lucy, and came downstairs wearing a long skirt with suspenders.

Song Yuqing's skin is snow-white, her figure is slender and plump, she is quite sexy in a long suspender dress, she is twenty-four or five years old, and she is at the age when a woman's face is the most gorgeous - maybe she has just slept - Song Yuqing's complexion under the lamp is particularly delicate and pink, at this time, even if she has no makeup and no makeup, she can hide the little flaws on her face.

Seeing Song Yuqing like this, Cao Mo thought to herself, no wonder Yang Deshan, who usually always has a dead fish face, can't help but want to move.

Song Yuqing saw Cao Mo coming back, her expression was a little complicated, she stood at the top of the stairs and wanted to speak, Cao Mo didn't see Guo Jian and Yang Deshan, and asked, "What about Mr. Yang and Guo Jian?"

"I don't know where they went. Song Yuqing said.

This lie is too substandard, Cao Mo thought that Yang Deshan and Guo Jianding had specially instructed her not to reveal their whereabouts.

"Mr. Yang should leave Kanem......" Lucy noticed that the young tribe boys Botu and Parry who had just arrived in Draculamo with Cao Mo were staring at Song Yuqing stupidly, jealous, and glanced at Song Yuqing with hostile eyes, and then complained to Cao Mo in Yoruba.

Lucy has been staying in Draculamo City for the past few days, so she will naturally keep an eye on Yang Deshan's whereabouts.

Cao Mo thought to himself, Yang Deshan, as the middle-level of the group and the head of the West Africa branch, is not as free as them, especially since he still has to keep this position.

Guo Jian came back for one night, and the next day he drove away from his residence, and Lucy inquired about two other local employees of the branch, one of whom was taken away directly by Guo Jian.

Cao Mo guessed that Guo Jian probably returned to Longta with people to contact other local tribes to find other gold sources.

Thinking of this, Cao Mo just smiled in his heart, Longta said that it was not big, and it was comparable to a county in China.

Many of the mineral deposits are distributed in a belt, and since the gold-bearing rock formations can be found in the ancient village of Yibo, it is theoretically possible that the nearby tribes will also have veins extending over them, but professional exploration is also required.

The gold mining sites of the Ibogu tribe have long been discovered, and if they want to further identify their reserves, they may need to be further explored, but even if they are not surveyed, they can continue to be mined.

And Guo Jian, as a non-professional, with a local employee, didn't know anything, so he went to the tribe near Longta and ran around, thinking that he could really find a gold mine?

Do you really think that there will be shit falling from the sky for no reason?

"Sister Yuqing, what do you think Guo Jian can do if he runs around blindly?" Cao Mo was a little curious about Song Yuqing's attitude at this time and asked.

"Mr. Yang has a fellow Hunan villager, who used to be a gold panner, and will look at mining prospecting, Mr. Yang specially contacted this person, and he can come ......over when he gets a visa," Song Yuqing said a little unconvinced, but after saying it, he felt regretful, how could he be so easily tricked out by Cao Mo?

"Oh!"

Cao Mo responded, thinking that Yang Deshan's thinking was clear, so he asked Guo Jian to run first, probably asking him to familiarize himself with the situation first.

At present, as long as Yang Deshan and Guo Jian don't come to hinder him, Cao Mo won't mind if they have a harvest in Longta next, or whether the harvest is likely to be greater than him - Yang Deshan can use much more resources than him, as long as his thinking does not deviate, it is normal to gain more than him in the future.

As for Guo Jian's bad intentions towards him before and Yang Deshan's insidious calculations against him, he also needs to be qualified before he can say that he is unhappy.
