Regardless of the size, the wild boar's belly has been kept, and the pig's heart is the same, which is said to have the effect of nourishing the heart and calming the nerves, benefiting the spleen and stopping bleeding.

It's not clear whether it's used or not, it's basically true that what to eat and what to make up for it, the saying handed down by the ancestors.

All other internal organs are discarded, and this is almost a wasteland, and this animal internal organs will not cause any environmental pollution, and they do not even need to be buried. The most likely thing is that within a day, the wild dogs that are attracted to it will eat all the food.

A full picokala returned to the mining area, and the replacement continued to be busy - there was not enough time, the pigskin of the large wild boar was simply peeled off and thrown into the mining landfill, and the small ones were dehaired with hot water in large basins.

Don't look at the appearance of the big wild boar black and brown, the small one has flower color stripes, after this hair loss, the pig skin is light white with a little red, and the same as the domestic pig.

A group of men, Mark and Liu Wendong took the initiative to help: the former slaughtered sheep when he was a farm helper, and the latter helped when he killed pigs in the village and belonged to semi-professionals.

Drag another Jacob, this is a pure strong man, who makes him the biggest, and the time has come to contribute!

Wild boar belly is stewed in traditional Chinese medicine, and knives, salt, flour, and vegetable oil are used when cleaning, leaving no fishy smell at all.

Adult wild boar meat smells fishy, especially male wild boars, the older they get, the more unpalatable they are, like the one that Zhang Nan killed, even if they use heavy material and heavy oil, it is estimated that there will still be many people who are not used to the smell.

Simply wash and give a meal to a group of Brazilian filas raised in the mining area - a good breed of large hunting dog that was raised last year, but was raised by the people in the mining area to only take care of the house, so I didn't bring it with me on this hunt.

Medium cauldron vegetables braised in the pot, small wild boar barbecue in the evening, cumin, pepper, pepper sprinkled on top, this is the previous mine guards invented the way to eat, the taste is first-class, better than the taste of braised wine.

Roast suckling pig, roast until golden brown, and go well with beer!

At seven o'clock in the evening, the meal was open, and the temperature was just right. Zhang Nan had just started eating here for a while, and there was a phone call, which was from Nicole.

took the satellite phone that Alyosha handed to him, which made a group of people on the side still shout, and when he saw the boss answer the phone, he automatically lowered his voice.

Ignoring the reactions of others, he said into the microphone: "How is the family, my sister is okay?... Oh, we were enjoying a game feast, went hunting in the afternoon, and killed 21 of them...

Didn't blow, there are more wild boars than people here..."

First a few idle words, I just called home the day before yesterday, which will estimate that Nicole's call may be something, but it will not be urgent.

Sure enough, it's not an urgent matter, it's a good thing.

Nicole on the other end of the phone said, "... There is too much cash in hand, and I had plans before the financial turmoil last year, and two months ago the mining company thought that it would develop in the direction of non-ferrous metals, and I gave it approval.

A few days ago, two copper mines in Peru were negotiated, acquired from the South Peruvian Copper Company......

Well, the copper mine, which cost a total of 3 billion, is called the Tromog mine, which can be mined on a large scale this year. The other has just been explored for a few years, at an altitude of 3,200 meters above sea level, and if you want to mine it on a large scale, you have to invest at least 1 billion yuan.

Zhang Nan listened here, originally thought that it was the parents of the family, and he didn't think about the multi-billion dollar business lightly, which was a little surprised.

The left hand gestured, and the people nearby immediately fell silent.

got up from the chair, and said into the phone while walking up: "You can just look at it, I know a little bit about this non-ferrous metal wholesale dump, and we have also worked as a purchasing salesman who ran that line, but it is also a business with a cap of 100 tons."

I don't understand this mine at all, money is a trivial matter, the dollar will depreciate by at least half in ten years, and it is good to invest in industry..."

It doesn't matter if the big boss doesn't understand, there is a group of experts and executives in his own mining group, and those guys just need to understand.

Now Zhang Nan has the right to decide on the direction of investment at home, just like investing in minerals, he makes his own decisions, but the specific operation basically doesn't matter at all, and even the specific investment is decided by experts.

What to make money and invest in what, we must take a long-term view, except for bauxite, which has not risen in price for decades, everything else can be.

Oil is the first choice, but it's not good to plug in the accident, and there is no good place for the time being.

Since he adheres to the policy of "leaving professional matters to professional people to handle", Zhang Nan uses the countermeasure of herding sheep, at most, his two women will talk to him when they do big things, and they don't even need to ask for opinions, because Zhang Nan is always "in favor".

Mining industries, such as the computer industry and the financial market, are places to make money, and when they are unlucky, they are empty, and they are still industrial, and the mines are real.

Enterprises will lose, as for the mines...

As long as humanity does not return to the Stone Age, non-ferrous metal ores and oil will always need to drop.

Zhang Nan said a few words here, and Nicole on the other end said: "Now that the world copper price is rising steadily, most of the 3 billion is because of the one that can be mined this year."

The annual output of copper concentrate contains more than 200,000 tons of copper, and the net profit can reach about 400 million a year, and there is the ability to double the production capacity, but then another 500 million must be invested, and it can be mined for at least 30 years after expansion. ”

"If you have money to make, you can invest it, and if the second mine is not in a hurry, then keep it. By the way, how many years is the license? And why don't Peruvians produce their own?"

I've heard a lot of such nonsense in my life, but I didn't expect Peruvians to do the same.

Nicole on the other end of the phone laughed, "50 years, you can extend it for another 30 years according to the proportion." People don't have money to invest for the time being, so they want cash, and God knows what they want to do.

In addition, we can solve the employment problem of two or three thousand people for one mine, as well as a certain amount of tax revenue every year, and it is not surprising that the South Americans sold it.

These three businesses were snatched from Billiton and the Little Devil Consortium, and even if they were put away, they would not lose money. ”

Zhang Nan didn't understand very well, so he thought for a while and said, "You can look at it, there are not too many copper mines."

By the way, you said there was a third mine?"

"Well, in Chile, the agreement has been negotiated, just waiting for you, the big boss, to sign it. ”

Zhang Nan said in his heart: "!"

Why?

The two women once joked at home that if the business was too big, Nicole, the CEO of the consortium, would also set a power ceiling, and Zhang Nan, the head of the family, would have to sign it.

Zhang Nan also joked: Then limit it to 10 billion US dollars.

This is silent, and it really gives such a huge project!

"How much?"

"13 billion is less than a point, and it is necessary to invest 5 to 6 billion yuan to reach the level of 500,000 tons of copper per year, and the annual profit starts at 1 billion. ”

"What mine?"

"The Escondida copper mine in Chile can reach the top 20 in the world, with a contract period of 99 years, and can be mined for more than 20 years. ”

"Good business!"

I'm even happier now!

The group of experts estimated that the calculation was wrong, or the estimate was too conservative: Zhang Nan worked as a procurement salesman in the Materials Bureau, and of course he also went to a copper smelting company.

It has long been known that Chile has the world's largest copper reserves and Peru's third.

Zhang Nan doesn't care about any mines, but 20 years later, he also knows which copper mine ranks first in the world in terms of output and profit: it is Kangdida Copper Mine!

Its reserves are not the largest in the world, but the other four super mines ahead of it in 20 years are either because they have been mined for decades, resulting in obscene production capacity, or because they are located in the internal transportation of the African continent, and the supporting facilities cannot keep up, and the output cannot be increased at all.

How big is the Condida copper mine?

Supplying 10% of the world's annual copper supply!

It will take at least 50 years to mine at full capacity, not 20 years!

More than 100 billion, it's worth it, it's worth it!

"Go back to New York to sign a contract?"

It's more than 10 billion, and since my own woman wants to sign it by herself, then go and sign it.

"No, we signed a contract with the governments of Chile and Peru, Jenny has already gone to Lima, you have to go to Santiago in half a month, and the people from the mining side will meet you......"

After saying that, he threw the hung up phone to Alyosha, and then went back to the place where he ate.

Thomas was eating the chopped grilled pork chops, and Zhang Nan sat down next to him, "The day after tomorrow, I will go to Africa, and then I will go to South America." ”

"I'm going back to the United States. ”

Thomas is not an idler, he has a lot to do.

Zhang Nan feels like a hard worker, a hard life on a private jet: flying to Africa in a hurry, Letra Neka in Botswana, Umtari in Zimbabwe, this lap, half of the time is spent on the plane.

It was better not to deal with the local government, but in Botswana we met with the kings and chiefs to discuss the tribal army: the southern Africa was beginning to be in turmoil, and the tribes felt that they needed to increase their strength.

In fact, the tribal leaders were a little worried, and the situation in South Africa and the chaos in those countries in the north would not affect the political situation in Botswana too much, and it could be regarded as a paradise in southern Africa.

If you want money and money, and if you want instructors and instructors, you can become the elite of southern Africa by engaging in a semi-productive tribal armed force of several thousand people, and the combat effectiveness of the government army can be a cut higher.

Not to say that the Botswana Army can conduct operations at the company and battalion level?

They haven't even figured out an effective squad charge!

Properly circling the earth, on April 20, Zhang Nan's 767 landed in Santiago, Chile, the world's most geographically remote capital-level city.

He then switched to a Chilean-provided plane and headed to the Escondida copper mine in the Atacama Desert in the north.

Construction started two years ago, but now there is no money, so I found Zhang Nan, a pick-up man.

This is the desert, or the damn desert at over 3,100 meters above sea level!

Sad for the miners who will work here in the future: Chile's copper mines can scare people to death, but the environment is ......

Unable to complain.

That's not all, the escort also proposed that there is another place where a giant copper mine has just been discovered, and if Zhang Nan is interested, he can talk about it again: that place is cheap.

It's not like playing antiques and being lucky enough to pick up leaks, this is copper ore, or the super giant kind!

Zhang Nan is not 250, saying that this needs to be evaluated by the company, and by the way, he asked about the so-called mining area.

Then, Zhang Nan was stunned...

At an altitude of 4,400 meters, in the mountains of the Andes, several hills are filled with copper mines of good taste, as well as several other rarer non-ferrous metals.

Know that the Andes are high, but that's 4400 meters!

Mining at such a height...

It seems, as if...

I remember them doing it like they did!

Leaving it to the experts to deal with, Zhang Nan is not interested in wandering around such a high place: there is no road at that place now, and he has to rely on helicopters to go up, and there are not many helicopters that can fly so high under the payload.

After looking at the copper mines, they will be ready for production next quarter, with more than 1,000 workers and mid-level and lower managers all retained, and senior executives and finance staff will be redeployed from the United States.

Return to Santiago, sign autographs, have a cocktail party, and leave.

Don't go back to the U.S. and go to Peru.

Or inspect the copper mine, and wait for a round to finish, it's almost May.

On April 30th, Lima, Zhang Nan felt that he was about to faint during this time: whether it is Chile or Peru, one is more than the other!

And I didn't bring my own private chef this time, and I couldn't even eat enough for more than a month!

It's time to go back to the United States, right?

No, we have to take a place: the rainy season in Peru is almost over, and the weather is starting to be suitable for these two days, so take a few days to visit a place.

On May 1, Zhang Nan's plane landed at Cusco Alejandro Velasco Astete International Airport.

As soon as they got out of the cabin, Xiang Weirong, who walked in front, said: "What is the altitude here?"

The flight attendant standing by the cabin door said politely and professionally: "3310 meters, Mr. Xiang." ”

Zhang Nan was behind and listened, "Oh, the international airport, the world's top 10 is estimated to be fine." ”

Having been on the west coast of South America for a long time, they seem to be a little sensitive to air pressure.

After getting off the plane, Zhang Nan said: "We are going to a place lower than here, 2400 meters at zero o'clock, but on the top of the mountain, take the train." ”

"What's the horse?"

Xiang Weirong had heard it a few times before, but he didn't remember it: it was hard to remember.

"Machu Picchu, the mountaintop resort of the Inca Empire. After Zhang Nan finished speaking, he stepped on the ground under his feet, this was Cusco, the original capital of the Inca Empire, but there was no more things from the Inca Empire here, and it was all destroyed by the Spaniards.

At this time, Jacob, who was dragging a flight case, happened to pass by, and Zhang Nan said in passing: "Don't have problems with the equipment, let's see if we can bring something back by the way." ”

"Crystal skulls?"

Hearing this, Zhang Nan glanced at the big man who was speaking, and shook his head helplessly.

Jacob felt as if he had said the wrong thing, and was tapped on the back of the head.

Let's not say who would do this, in terms of the part of the slap, the owner of that hand can only be his own brother.

It was Mark, who looked at his younger brother with a look of stupidity and said: "You deserve to fail history, it is in Maya, this is the Inca Empire, and the crystal skull is in Central America." ”

Jacob didn't retort, but it always felt like something was wrong.

But this was sorting out the unloaded luggage in the cargo hold, and the officials from Peru who came to receive it also came, so I didn't think about it.

After a while, I got on the bus to the train station, and Jacob, who could only stuff himself into it horizontally, had better finally remember what the problem was!

"Mark, that's a matter of geography, damn it, not history!"
