26. Put into production

There are many cumbersome procedures for large-scale land transactions, and in addition to reporting to the state government, the land and resources department must agree to it......

After taking the Granville Ranch, Leafwood happily returned to the valley.

Lawrence had been waiting at the Valley Ranch for two days.

"Sorry for the delay. Ye Mu said with a smile.

Lawrence smiled wryly: "Let me introduce you, this is Roddy." One of the shareholders of the bank, and will be in charge of the personal assistant business for the bank's black card customers in the future. ”

Ye Mu shook hands with Luo Di and invited the group into the ranch's office.

Kahn and Thompson looked guilty, and Lawrence and his entourage stood outside the door.

"This is Goldman Sachs' asset appraisal report on Sunder Bank. Lawrence pulled out a document: "The bank plans to go public by the end of the year, and now it's time for you to decide." ”

Ye Mu flipped through the documents and took a quick look at the revenues of major banks in the past three years, as well as various asset assessments.

As an unlisted bank, with total assets of $670 million, it is already very good in the United States.

Among the good assets is also the stake in Melina Bank, which should be Lawrence's capital injection into the company......

After a rough look, Ye Mu closed the materials and said, "The value of the valley ranch is far more than 300 million. ”

"If Shengmei Investment goes public, 300 million may become 500 million, 1 billion, or even more. Lawrence smiled confidently.

"Something theoretical, imagination is always beautiful. 320 million ...... Moreover, there are not many high-quality assets of Shengmei Investment Bank. ”

"310 million. No matter more, I can only go back to hold a general meeting of shareholders. ”

“OK。 ”

The shareholding structure of Shengmei Investment Bank is relatively simple, with major shareholders holding more than 50.01 percent of the shares, 335.67 million shares, that is, the chairman of the bank, so it is easy to operate.

Ye Mu took the valley ranch as an asset to invest in Shengmei Investment Bank, holding 310 million shares, becoming the second largest shareholder of Shengmei Investment Bank.

After the miscellaneous things were dealt with, Ye Mu moved to Western Australia, Granville Ranch.

The 6,300 square kilometers of pasture is much smaller than the valley pasture.

The land here is not bad, grassland, grazing all year round. The problem is that the infrastructure is too poor......

3 houses, no planned fence grazing area, nothing.

After completing the handover procedures with the Granville family, Ye Mu's next step was to inject capital into the ranch and hire a CEO with an annual salary of one million Australian dollars.

The annual salary and ability are directly equated, and most of the talents recommended by headhunting companies are very easy to use.

$20 million into the ranch to build grazing fences, cattle pens, sheepfolds, breeding areas and more. The new CEO of the ranch is named Mike, who was previously the general manager of KIK Meat Products, and has experience in ranching and understands market operations.

It is actually difficult to make money by investing in pastures, so Ye Mu made a show and set up a YM mining company with his backhand, inviting the geology and mineral exploration company to explore the polymetallic deposit area.

On a flat hill, the vegetation is sparse. The hills as far as the eye can see, the indescribable desolation.

Karn and Bot stood behind Ye Mu: "Ye, the matter of the Iron Mine in the Valley ......"

"I don't mean to blame. Ye Mu waved his hand, the valley iron ore is too small compared to the current polymetallic mine.

Moreover, it is not far from important rivers, and it is very difficult to apply for mining.

"Getting the mining rights is the icing on the cake, and it doesn't matter if you don't. The Valley Ranch was originally a 'bonus' for the sale of the gold mines. It doesn't matter......" Ye Mu shook his head.

The exploration team is doing electric exploration, and the results will be available soon.

Ten days later, a bombshell news appeared on the Australian National News Network.

'Very large polymetallic deposit discovered in the Couriksen Grassland in northern Western Australia, with an aston......ishing initial estimate of reserves'

'BHP Billiton Makes Takeover ...... to Owner of Courikson Polymetallic Mine

……

BHP Billiton, a world-famous large multinational company, seems to be the world's largest mining company.

acquisition, Ye Mu didn't pay attention to them, and he didn't even see the people they sent.

It's an open-pit mine that's easy to mine. The metal ore is of high grade and can be sold after being dug up and simply processed.

While applying for a mining permit, he found a CEO for the company and set up the company's framework.

The CEO's name is Connor, and he used to be in charge of export sales at a medium-sized mining company. In addition, I found a mine manager who was in charge of the mining area...... Kahn is responsible for the beneficiation process, and the output can be recorded.

The registered capital of the mining company is 20 million Australian dollars, which is enough for a mining company that does not dig or bury. As for personal accounts, less than $3 million remains......

This time it was much easier to get a mining permit.

Recruit the company's management team, build sites, plants, and purchase equipment......

Connor was in charge, with Karn and Thompson assisting. Ye Mu was only occasionally involved in the construction of the mine, mainly playing a supervisory role. More time at home, studying the technology stored in Xiaobai's brain, trying to repair the big black.

Restoring the big black is a big job, and it is impossible to complete it in a short period of time.

However, after digesting Xiaobai's technical reserves, if there is a huge amount of money and no restrictions on raw materials, it should not be difficult for Ye Mu to make the Ark Reactor.

Construction of the plant and transportation of equipment......

Connor offered to build a wharf and railroad to transport mineral sands.

The construction of an improvised wharf on the coast closest to the mine site would save 160 kilometres of haulage roads. The mine is only 23 kilometres from the bay suitable for the construction of the marina, and an additional 160 kilometres from the detour to the other side of the bay......

23 km, you can consider laying a railway, so it is more cost-effective. In this way, the company's capital reserves are not enough, and it is necessary to find a bank loan.

Ye Mu agreed to this matter without much thought, and it didn't cost much, all of which was more than 50 million Australian dollars, and Ye Mu contacted Luo Di and borrowed $100 million from the bank. Ye Mu, who has all high-quality assets, let alone a loan of 100 million US dollars, even if it is 1 billion, it is an easy matter.

Ye Mu didn't even go, Luo Di came over with the documents himself, and Ye Mu signed a few words and it was OK.

The main deposit has a grade of 14.5% lead and zinc, and several secondary ores with a grade of only 4%~11.3%.

It is not cost-effective to sell ore directly, and the freight is unbearable. The mine has been excavated and the beneficiation equipment is still being installed......

After a few days of miner life.

Seeing that it was the end of the year again, Ye Mu opened the container and divided the things that could see the light and the things that could not see the light into two categories.

Big Black's Ark Reactor, Big Black's Smart Host, and the weapons in the Superalloy Container, these things must not see the light of day. 3D stereoscopic printer, you can see the light. Metal blocks for printers, bird helicopters, and light can be seen. Some of Dahei's mechanical arms can also see the light. The light here can be seen, as long as it is not sent to a professional testing agency for testing...... These things seem to be high-tech, and they are not entirely unacceptable.

Everything that could not see the light was locked in the superalloy container, and it found a piece of mud and sank. It's very difficult to fix Dahei, Xiaobai couldn't do it in space before, let alone now. The things that saw the light were remixed with excavators and bulldozer parts and sealed in containers, and then contacted a business jet to take Xiaobai and two dogs home.

The matter in Australia has basically come to an end, and it is difficult to make any greater achievements in staying and continue to prospect for minerals? This is too arrogant and too eye-catching.
