Chapter 1081 Guarding the Golden Mountain and Begging for Food

"I want to know what the main industries of Ganu Island are and what are the advantageous resources. Yang Limin said.

"Well...... this," Muck said, and he turned his attention to the Minister of Agriculture, Lake, because the only industry that Saint-Goga can call an advantageous industry can only be agriculture.

"Our fishing industry on Gnu Island has been very developed since ancient times, and at present, our marine fish products can not only meet the living needs of our residents. It can also be exported to India, Sri Lanka and other neighboring countries in exchange for various industrial products for our country. ”

"Oh, how much is the export value of marine fish in a year?" Yang Limin asked with interest.

"$300,000!" Terek said smugly.

Zhang Kui pinched his fingers and interjected: "In other words, the average resident can have a maximum of 2 US dollars in foreign exchange income?"

Now he is not ignorant of these things, following Yang Limin for so many years, he has learned a lot of things just by seeing and seeing, and it is absolutely not a problem to go out and become the CEO of a small and medium-sized enterprise.

"Uh...... In fact, we don't just export marine fish, we also export guano and we also have ...... a year More than $500,000 in amounts. Lake said. This time, his tone was much lower, because the $500,000 spread over less than 200,000 residents was still very pitiful.

Many times, when people describe a place as poor, they always use "birds don't poop". In fact, there is still truth in this. Because guano is rich in nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, it is a very high-quality natural fertilizer. There are many islands on Gnu Island that are home to seabirds. A thick layer of guano has been deposited over thousands of years. Gnu Island also generates a lot of income by exporting guano to neighboring countries.

Yang Limin doesn't care about this kind of amount in hundreds of thousands, and now he casually sells a batch of goods, which is based on millions.

"Is this all the property on Gnu Island?" Yang Limin asked.

Lake nodded depressedly and said, "Yes, our place is far away from land, and the transportation cost is very high, so it is also difficult to develop some industry." As for agriculture, the existing arable land on the island is only enough to meet the needs of the inhabitants to eat, and it is almost impossible to develop more industries

Impossible. Therefore, I don't know what kind of investment Mr. Yang wants to make when he comes to our Gnu Island this time. ”

Yang Limin said: "Your Excellency. Before I introduce my investment intentions, I would like to tell you a little bit about China. In China, there are also many impoverished areas, and in those places, there is a popular saying that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads. In the eyes of the Chinese, as long as the transportation is convenient, the economy will naturally be able to develop. ”

Kopetni didn't understand what Yang Limin meant, he pointed to the map on the wall and said: "Mr. Lin, you see, we are an island country hanging in the middle of the Indian Ocean, and it is impossible to develop any convenient transportation. Therefore, I am afraid that we will not be able to learn from the experience of the Chinese mentioned by you. ”

Yang Limin shook his head and said: "Your Excellency the President is wrong, around Gnu Island, there are at least three popular routes passing through, which is equivalent to three highways on land, how can you think that the transportation on Gnu Island is not convenient enough?"

"But...... What do these routes have to do with us?" asked Muck curiously, for it seemed to him that the ocean-going freighters on these routes were mere passers-by, and had nothing to do with Gnu Island.

Yang Limin had no choice but to continue to give a lecture and said: "In China, there is another saying, which is called relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, and relying on the water to eat the water. How can you have no food to eat when you rely on the three shipping lanes? According to our Chinese saying, you are guarding the golden mountains and begging for food!"

"Please advise Mr. Yang. Kopetni said.

"In China, if there is a road next to a village, the villagers will find a way to use the road to make money," Yang said. They will get some local souvenirs and put them on the side of the road to attract passing cars to stop and buy. When there is a big traffic jam on the road, the villagers have more options and will sell food to the drivers who are stuck in the road. Think about it, when you're stuck in traffic jams and hungry, do you care about the price of food?"

"Won't you Chinese drivers bring some food with you?" asked Lake. On Gnu Island, there is never a traffic jam, but fishermen bring some food with them when they go out to sea, and Terek can be considered to use his brains.

Yang Limin smiled: "They can bring food, but can they bring boiling water? For example, if you want to make instant noodles, you can soak them without boiling water."

Those villagers carry boiling water bottles to sell instant noodles, and whoever wants boiling water has to buy instant noodles at the same time, so the drivers will have to comply?"

"It's kind of interesting. Kopetni nodded, "But, Mr. Yang, what does what you said have to do with our Gnu Island?"

Yang Limin said: "The relationship is very big. If you think about it, with hundreds of ocean-going freighters passing by you every day, can you follow the example of the Chinese villagers and sell food to these ocean-going freighters? In the vast sea, the price of food from the land has doubled, and I'm afraid the crew won't care, right?"

"Yes, we can sell boiling water too!" Lake said preemptively, but as soon as his words came out, he was despised by Kopetni and Murk, come on, ocean freighters are not trucks, people can boil water themselves.

Yang Limin took Terek's words and said: "Minister Lake is very right, of course, what he said about selling boiling water is just a metaphor. What we want to sell to a freighter is something that the freighter can't provide on its own, for example, fresh vegetables, which no freighter can satisfy itself, right?"

"That's a great idea!" Copetney exclaimed, "Think about it, if one boat can buy us $100 of vegetables, 100 boats a day can buy $10,000 of vegetables." 365 days a year, that's 3.65 million, which is more than all our exports combined. ”

"And the fresh fish, I think, the crew of these ships can't catch their own fish, so if we can sell our fish to them, it will definitely be much more expensive than shipping it to India, and it will save on shipping costs. As for guano...... I don't think the passing freighters would be interested in that, would they?"

"So, Mr. Yang came to our Gnu Island this time to invest in this business?" asked Muk. He began to think that if he wanted to do the business of passing freighters, he would definitely have to go to sea to trade, so he would need to invest in some speedboats, could it be that the investment that this wealthy Chinese businessman said was to buy some speedboats to become a sea vendor? This seems to be a little inconsistent with the identity of this rich businessman? Also, he can't make much money in this kind of business, and if he is allowed to intervene, how much will be left of Gnu Island?
