As we enter November, it's almost summer in the southern hemisphere on Australia's side.

The more you go to the beach, the better the weather.

In Wickham, a small north-western fishing village in Western Australia, there's a big thing going on today.

That is the port donated by Wankang Company, which has been built and can be used!

With it, the fishermen's fishing boats have a safe and reliable harbor to moor, and the harbor's tall beacon can also allow the fishermen to see the direction of their homes from a distance.

The most important thing is that although this port is small, it is not simple at all, the materials are very solid, the quality and layout are very good, and it is better than the fishermen of Wickham who have seen hundreds of kilometers of small ports around.

In order to thank Wankang Company, Charles, the mayor of Wickham Town, specially invited Mr. Wei Li, the president of Wankang Company, to attend the opening ceremony of the port on behalf of more than 100 households.

Wickham is just a little bigger, and he is a fisherman who fishes for a living on weekdays, and his life is not very rich.

Therefore, this opening ceremony is just a temporary open-air tent set up in the open space in front of the port, and some fruits, salads, meat, wine, etc. are placed, which is equivalent to a cold buffet, which is also grand.

Welly didn't care about such simplicity, he had spent at least a quarter of the past few months in Wickham, drinking wine with Charles and talking and laughing.

"With this port, our fishermen can increase their income by at least 30 percent, and they can also save a lot of money on repairing and maintaining fishing boats. Charles said happily, "In addition, not far away is the farm of your Wankang Company, and the crops produced are cheap and good, so our living costs are greatly reduced." And their improvement in water and electricity and other living facilities has also benefited our town, and everyone's life will definitely get better and better!"

What Charles said was the beauty that the residents of Wickham Town felt deeply.

Fishing is not to be mentioned for the time being, and the benefits have not yet been truly revealed.

But in terms of daily life, the town of Wickham has changed dramatically from two or three years ago.

The reason for this is that Wankang is built on a nearby farm.

After two or three years of development, Wankang's farms have spread across the north-west and central regions of Western Australia.

The farm mentioned here is not only a planting base for vegetables, fruits, and vegetables, but also the breeding of chickens, ducks, cattle, sheep, and fish, and also represents a living scale of at least 500 people.

These 500 people are not only engaged in agricultural production, which is usually done by women, and the young and strong labor force is generally with various skills, such as forklifts, plumbers, carpenters, masons, electrical repairers, ...... Wait, someone will.

As a result, the quality of life of the people of Wickham has really improved by more than ten times.

Unlike in the past, when the light bulb at home was broken, you had to wait for an electrician in a larger town dozens of kilometers away to fix it.

It can be two days at the earliest.

Don't doubt it, it's not a joke.

In Australia, it is illegal to change a light bulb yourself!

As soon as Wankang Company came, everything can be repaired for you, and any daily necessities can be provided.

And their things and services are not expensive, and the people are very enthusiastic, which belongs to the kind that can repair the water pipes in your home after changing the light bulb.

Another advantage of Wankang is that they don't come to squeeze Australian jobs at all, and they do a few years of agricultural and sideline products, and some municipal engineering work.

Being able to help with things and not stealing jobs, how good a person is like this!

As a result, the people of Wickham, like the rest of Western Australia, were very supportive of Wankang settling in their neighborhood.

Wickham's luck was even better, Wankang actually helped them repair the port for free, spending no less than millions of Australian dollars.

That's why Charles is so emotional.

Wei Li had a different mind.

He echoed a few words, and then slowly turned to his own topic, "But even so, everyone's fishing is still very hard, right?"

"Who says it's not hard?" Charles nodded, "Every year, the two fish news periods are more than 3 months, and they basically don't get off the boat, and they have to encounter various extreme weather such as storms, and every time they finish it, they will lose a lot of weight." ”

"But after a while of hard work, everyone's income should be good, right?" Wei Li said.

"It also depends on the vintage. "If the vintage is good and the quality of the fish is good, then you will earn a little more...... However, even during the peak harvest season, if everyone catches more fish, the price of fish will fall. ”

After a pause, he added, "Anyway, there is no problem in supporting a family, but it is still difficult to make a fortune like the people who are mining! ”

Because there are a large number of mines, the welfare of Western Australia is still good, and the medical education of ordinary people is very well guaranteed.

As for the various subsidies given by the government every year, they are enough for the poor to eat.

But people's pursuit is not just to fill their stomachs, so the people who have been fishing for generations on the Wickham side are still energetically doing the fishing work that their ancestors have been doing for generations.

However, in recent years, the situation has changed a lot.

Since the 60s, the Pilbara mine in Western Australia has been the world's largest open-pit iron ore region, and many monopoly giants have settled in and started mining, bringing a lot of tax revenue to the WA treasury and attracting many young people to work.

Although it is much more difficult there than in the city, the salary is very high, so the younger people are willing to work for three, five, seven or eight years, and only after earning enough money will they quit and return to the city or hometown to live a leisurely life.

The more people in these small villages and towns, the more they have such thoughts.

Charles wasn't quite right, but in fact Wickham was around the Pilbara mine, so almost all of the young people under the age of 30 here had left the town to work in the mines.

Those who stay here to fish are people in their thirties and fifties.

They also had to do it while waiting for the young people to come back after a decade or so.

Overall, Wickham is a very undeveloped town.

Towns and villages like this are everywhere in Western Australia.

That's why Wankang is so popular, because they are the only ones who have the most abundant young labor force to help do things that many older people can't do.

"Have you ever thought of relying on Wickham's good position to do something for everyone?" asked Willy, tilting his head.

"What position, what welfare?" Charles was stunned.

He is also an ordinary fisherman, not very well educated, but a native of Wickham, and has a certain degree of organization and coordination skills, so he sat in the position of mayor.

In Australia, officials are generally smart people, but a grassroots petty official like Charles is not very stupid, but his vision and ability are definitely not very good.

At the very least, it's much worse than a smart guy like Welly, a company doctor.

Wei Li smiled and said, "That's right, you know that our Wankang Company is a Kirin Group affiliated to Xiangjiang. Now our boss has set up a new Kirin mining company to develop a mineral business in Australia. We have applied for 100,000 square kilometres of mineral prospecting rights, approximately 210 kilometres from Wickham.

You must also know that our boss, Mr. Yin Jun, is a genius. Geniuses, naturally think more. Before we started to explore, he was already thinking about how to transport the ore and sell it to the Japanese and Korean steel mills in East Asia after it was mined. ”

Charles was dumbfounded.

Of course, he knew Yin Jun and knew the Kirin Group.

This genius boy with a net worth of more than $3 billion is so impulsive.

Not only did he apply for such a large mineral exploration right in one go, but he also remembered how to transport ore out of Australia?

Didn't he know that there have been seventy or eighty companies that have applied for prospecting rights in Western Australia, but many of them have been in vain?

Even in the Pilbara mining area, where iron ore is piled up, there are many companies that have lost a lot of prospecting rights fees.

Yin Jun applied for the prospecting right of 100,000 square kilometers in one go, and his heart seemed too big, this is the expenditure of tens of millions of dollars!

Wouldn't it be a pity if it was lost?

What's even more ridiculous is that the mining area has not been found, so dare to think about the problem of transportation?

Don't say whether you can find the mining area, even if you find it, if it is not large, how can it be mined?

Even if you are qualified to mine, can the mine you mine support a transportation artery?

Opening a transportation artery to transport people abroad is not something that can be done with tens of millions of dollars, at least from one billion or more than one billion dollars!

If you want to support more than a billion dollars in transportation construction costs, the value of the mining area should be at least more than 10 billion dollars!

How many years has it been since there been such a large mine in Western Australia?

You casually choose 100,000 square kilometers of land, and you think you can dig a big mine?

Do you really think you're God?

100,000 square kilometers!

That's at least a few years to detect, right?

Judging from this series of steps, Yin Jun is completely messed up!

This young man is still too young, and when he has achieved something in something, he thinks he can do anything, and he really doesn't know what to do!

I hope that his reckless decision will not affect Wankang Company!

Otherwise, if Wankang Company goes bankrupt, the people of Western Australia will be seriously unaccustomed to it!
