Chapter 383: Arriving in Yellowknife City
Once the most troublesome shipping problem has been solved, any other problem becomes a minor problem!
What about infrastructure projects?
If the labor in Canada is too high, you can let Wang Debiao's old boy bring someone to North America next year to open a foreign meat restaurant, anyway, there is no foreign construction team that comes to Canada to engage in construction. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Otherwise, with Canada's current population, larger projects will have to be blinded!
Professional construction machinery has to be sold, Canada, the United States a price, than in China are cheaper.
As for the problem of driving a driver's license in Canada's Northwest Province, although a Chinese driver's license cannot be used directly in Canada, a group of drivers can come over and spend a little money to solve it: just replace the license.
And all the people on the ice road will be Zhang Nan's employees, and there will not be a policeman who will be killed, and he will still drive without a driver's license.
When the day comes when large-scale car transportation is really going to happen, no one will ask if you drive without a license!
Because it won't get in the way of people at all, there are tens of millions of square kilometers of no man's land, and the police will not come to find trouble unless they are crazy: the traffic accident killed is unilateral, and the reindeer killed is not counted.
If you mess with people, you will be blown into a sack with one shot, and you will be torn to pieces by wolves or wolverines who are looking for food in winter within a day. By the beginning of spring next year, there will be no scraps left, a proper missing person.
In these barren places near the Arctic Circle, the disappearance of a few people is not a big deal, not to mention now, even in the 21st century, in fact, many things are still following the laws of nature.
And in today's Canada, there is a kind of person that must never be provoked, and the police do not want to provoke, that is, some new Chinese!
It is not the Chinese who immigrated to the Americas dozens or hundreds of years ago, but some of the Chinese men in Canada in recent years.
Why?
Because if anyone dares to mess with them, they don't need too many reasons, even if they are thousands of kilometers away, they will drive a few cars and take dozens of guns to kill you!
It's not that they look down on the police in Canada, even the few soldiers in Canada don't want to mess with these Chinese, because they just use the military to solve problems with their opponents.
Let's talk about it!
Because they originally had soldiers who came down from the battlefield, and even if they weren't, they always served as militiamen for a few days, right?
No matter how bad it is, I have also seen the martial arts in the special period, and in terms of combat effectiveness, Canada's underworld is a big joke.
Of course, Zhang Nan can move around anywhere in Canada at will, as long as his bodyguards are by his side.
As for the miners, what to do?
Zhang Nan's current selection of several points will be open-pit mines, whether the future will dig deeper and deeper along the rock pipe into underground mines is not known for the time being, but at the beginning of the past ten years of mining methods are actually similar to ordinary quarries, open-pit coal mines, the big deal is that kimberlite is relatively hard.
The work is to blast the rocks apart and loosen them with explosives, and then load them with an excavator and transport them to the gravel concentrator on flat ground. After a series of processes such as crushing and screening, diamonds of different sizes and qualities are finally obtained.
Many miners, even after working in mechanized diamond mines for several years, have never seen a single diamond, and will always see only gray stones of various sizes.
Xiang Zhangsheng made this very clear when he discussed: digging a stone to smash it, and then secretly getting a diamond for his daughter-in-law is a joke.
Of course, the prerequisite for this is in the primary ore of the barrel type, and those secondary ores that are flooded with water to pan for gold in search of diamonds are not counted.
The discovery of Changlin diamonds is a standard form of secondary minerals, and it is possible to kick out a diamond when you walk.
And almost any mechanized diamond mine has a very unkind rule: workers are not allowed to pick up anything from the ground other than their dropped tools and personal belongings, and if they find it, they will be searched and checked!
Not convinced?
Then fuck off!
Because everything on the ground belongs to the boss, a pebble can be worth millions of dollars!
What if you actually see a diamond?
Pick it up and report it to your superiors, and you'll get a little bonus.
Want to hide yourself?
Searched every time you leave the mine for vacation, this is the discipline of any large-scale regular diamond ore!
You can do nothing, and if you want the job, you have to follow the rules.
In a large diamond mine, the work of an ordinary miner is actually very simple, anyone who has worked in a quarry can do it, and miners do not need too many, but more people are actually to serve the normal operation of the mine.
......
Early in the morning of July 18, Zhang Nan and others boarded Gulfstream 4 at the long-rented private airport and flew directly to Yellowknife, the capital of Canada's Northwest Province.
Alice is not on the plane, it doesn't matter if there is no service staff, she wants to drink a drink and get it herself, Zhang Nan gave her a holiday.
Nicole and Jenny only said "don't take it home", but Zhang Nan had to be conscious, it was better not to meet for the time being.
After Xiang Zhangsheng got used to the luxury of private jets, the engineers each held a Walkman and a textbook in their hands, and began to learn English like Xiang Weirong last year.
Everyone listens to music, listens to music, dozes off and dozes off, only Nicole is looking for trouble with Zhang Nan.
"What, let Alice hide?"
Nicole whispered to Zhang Nan on the side.
"No, nothing. ”
"I'm not so stingy, I see it when I see it, and I'll eat her again?"
Yes, Zhang Nan was speechless, and Nicole on the side looked at herself with a waiting look.
After being silent for a while, he said: "Anyway, I'm too lazy to find another flight attendant, otherwise you will be even more uneasy, and you will return to normal next time." ”
Don't say it, it's wrong to say more.
Fortunately, Nicole didn't have much, and she was going to bang and beat herself before.
Nearly 6 hours later, Gulfstream 4 landed on Canadian soil.
As soon as I stepped out of the cabin, I felt that the air was very fresh, and I could see the sparse woods outside the airport.
It's not far from the Arctic Circle.
Yellowknife, also known as Yellowknife City, is the northernmost city in Canada with about 178 inhabitants on the northern shore of Lake Slave.
It was developed relatively early, with the North West Company and the Hudson's Bay Company opening up the fur trade in the area in 1789, and gold was discovered here at the end of the 19th century, but it was rarely mined on a large scale due to its small reserves, dispersion and inaccessibility.
A few years ago, a large gold mine was discovered, and the place was remote enough, and some people did not believe in evil to invest, which would have been about to lose money.
The indigenous people here still breed reindeer as they did hundreds of years ago, and rely on traditional fur trading, fishing and hunting for their livelihood.
There are two names for one city, because Yellowknife means "Yellow Knife": there are many gold and copper mines in this place, and the aborigines here used to wear brass knives, so it is also called Yellow Knife City.
As soon as the three engineers got off the plane, they muttered a few words to each other, and Zhang Nan, who understood it, smiled after hearing it.
"I thought it was going to be snowy and icy, I didn't think it would be so warm. ”
This is Xie Jianliang.
"I look at least 15 degrees. ”
It was Tang Jichao who spoke.
Xiang Zhangsheng made a concluding speech: "The pilot said just now that it was 16.5 degrees, which is considered a spring flower. ”
Among the three, Xiang Zhangsheng has the best English, how come this Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University is also a university, and he still learned something in four years.
Zhang Nan said in the past: "In fact, in the Arctic Circle, most of the snow will melt in summer, which is not much different from our spring, and it will not be cold until winter, and one will not be below minus 40 degrees."
We're here today, switch to a seaplane tomorrow morning, and if we're lucky, we'll be able to see the Northern Lights tonight. ”
The small amount of equipment brought over from the plane, other things Davis and Chen Hao have already purchased here, and they have also contacted the local department to obtain the necessary special materials.
