Volume 4 Chapter 60 Planning for a New Farm (This chapter is free for Saturday closure)

The results of the analysis method of the core gene fragment of the virus are indeed of great significance to Nam Kwong Group. www.biquge.info that means that Nam Kwong Group is at the top of the world in the treatment of susceptible viral diseases known to humans.

Not to mention anything else, if the research on the influenza virus can yield results, just cold medicine can make Nanguang not worry about losing money for a few years.

In many cases, colds are actually viral diseases, and the infections caused by colds are mostly bacterial diseases. If a special cold medicine can be developed, the existing cold medicine on the market may have to withdraw from the stage of history.

Of course, the development of a new drug takes time, and it can only belong to the future.

Li Sheng locked the documents brought by Feng Xiaoting directly into the safe. His immediate priority now is to develop the farms in Namibia.

Buying a desert actually means that the operation of the farm will be greatly restricted. At least there will not be a lot of land suitable for development and planting for the time being.

But Li Sheng has a plan that he has already considered mature. It's just that the previous plan was for the Kubuqi Desert. Now I bought it in Namibia, and it is much larger.

That desert is located in the southwest of Namibia and has large sand dunes. This temperate desert is formed because the cold currents along the coast prevent the water vapor carried by the sea breeze from forming rain, but directly near the land, some of which goes deep into the ground to form groundwater, and more of which is evaporated after the sun comes out.

But Li Sheng hopes to keep more of the water retained. That's going to require more vegetation.

The most important thing to transform a desert is to plant vegetation on these lands. And water is needed to grow vegetation.

The land he bought, the rain is not to think about. Even if he planted vegetation in the future, the increase would only be greater, but the precipitation would not increase. It is in the sub-high pressure zone, and the rain is already scarce, and the influence of the cold snap has turned the land into a desert, so no matter how much evaporation is there, it will not help. Planting vegetation will not only not cause more rain there, but will only evaporate more water from the area. So he had to replenish the land with water.

He thought of a way to desalinate seawater, as in the Middle East.

Desalination, on the other hand, requires a lot of electricity. Wind and solar power are the most ideal ways for him to obtain power. However, solar-like power generation takes up too much space, so he prefers wind power.

He had asked Xiao Yaojie to return to China first to prepare for the bidding for these two projects. He called people to see how they were getting ready.

Xiao Yaojie has obviously done his homework in the past two days. He walked into the president's office with a folder: "Mr. Li, this is the plan I have made in the past two days. You see what's wrong. ”

There were no empty words in the documents he brought. In response to the two projects that Li Sheng explained, he listed the best technology in the world in the document.

After a skimming of the document, Li Sheng asked, "Are you planning to use the best available technology?" ”

"Yes." Xiao Yaojie nodded and said. "Mr. Li, I think the premise of the development of a new farm is that there is enough water. So it is impossible for these two projects to wait for new technologies to emerge. ”

Li Sheng nodded in agreement with his words and said, "Then you seem to be more optimistic about vertical wind turbines." I remember that there seems to be a higher power generation in China. ”

"I recommend choosing a few more manufacturers. It takes at least one month for a wind turbine with the most power and the best technology to be installed from production to installation. The area of the new farm is large, and it is estimated that eight hundred to one thousand generating units can be installed. That kind of quantity cannot be met by one supplier. In addition, the vertical generator set also has certain advantages. ”

Li Sheng looked at the documents brought by Xiao Yaojie for a while, and said: "According to the research, it is indeed like that, but can the power be increased?" With less than a kilowatt of power, it's a bit of a waste of space. However, for the time being, we don't need that many generators. Of course, there is nothing wrong with thinking about the long term. ”

Xiao added: "If we are willing to accept long delivery times, there should be no problem. ”

Li Sheng put on his shirt and said, "You ask this Renault Seiko to send someone, I will see how much time it will take them to complete the new design." "Renault Seiko is a French generator set company that Xiao Yaojie proposed to inspect in the plan.

Xiao Yaojie immediately said, "Okay." But Mr. Li, what are your requirements for the generator set, if you can tell them in advance, they can prepare better. ”

"The lower end of their vertical blades is too close to the ground, less than three meters, and that distance has a big impact on our production," Li said. It had to reach more than 15 meters. ”

He thought of another thing and said, "At the same time, let Huaxia's Dongfang Seiko also send people." See if they can produce vertical wind turbines. And ask them to prepare their best technology and product materials. "Dongfang Precision's technology seems to specialize in horizontal-axis wind turbines. Although the vertical shaft type has a simplified structure and low cost, the power conversion efficiency is low. The power of the horizontal shaft type is higher, for example, the largest power generator set of Dongfang Precision has reached 2,750 kilowatts.

"Yes." Xiao Yaojie took out a small notebook and took Li Sheng's request down.

Li Sheng added: "The new farm needs two desalination plants with a daily output of 200,000 tons, how did you calculate it? ”

"I investigated the local climate of the new farm, where there is only a maximum of 100 millimetres of precipitation per year – including rain and dew from the sea breeze. The additional issuance volume exceeded 1,300 millimeters. ”

He organized his words and said: "According to this difference, 8,000 square kilometers of land will be replenished with at least 9.6 billion tons of water every year. 400,000 tons of water per day, at most more than 100 million tons of water per year. Even if you consider using it in a water-saving way, it is still far from enough. ”

"In fact, if you plant vegetation in arid areas, you increase the number of additional crops," he continued. California, for example, began removing grass from the desert a decade ago because Americans found that the grass had increased evaporation. ”

Li Sheng thought for a moment and said, "Since it is not enough, let's build a few more desalination plants." ”

"I don't know how many more I have to add."

"Increase it to five." Li Sheng thought for a moment and said. "You first calculate the investment according to your revised plan."

"Yes."

Xiao Yaojie saw that Li Sheng didn't seem to have anything else to say, so he said: "Mr. Li, yesterday someone from Inner Mongolia called me again and asked for it, hoping to continue negotiations. I didn't promise without your instructions. Don't know what you mean. ”

Li Sheng thought for a moment and said, "You let them come to me." ”

Although the renovation of two deserts at the same time would put some pressure on his funds, his existing savings in the bank were enough to cover the upfront expenses of these two projects. Nam Kwong Group will bring him at least tens of billions of dollars in revenue in the next year, and with the income of Silent Farm, he is confident that he can support the construction of two farms at the same time.

He had planned to settle the new farm in Huaxia, mainly to consider getting closer to the Huaxia executives. And now, his purpose has not changed.

The arrest of Babur taught him a point. A businessman, even with a lot of wealth, can't compete with a big country. And the closer he can connect with a certain power, the more scruples other countries will have to deal with him. As for this powerful country, he naturally chose Huaxia.

It's just that the Kubuqi Desert is very different from the one in Namibia. At least the Kubuqi Desert is not close to the sea, and even if he wants to use the money to build a desalination plant, it is useless. Pumping groundwater is not a long-term solution. If he really intends to take the land in the Kubuqi Desert, perhaps he will also have the right to divert water from the Yellow River for irrigation. Otherwise, where the water source is must be a problem.

He asked Xiao Yaojie to do it first, let him work in the company, and even eat lunch in the company.

When it was time to go to work in the afternoon, Mo Changfeng called: "Li Sheng, are you free now?" If you have time, come and sit on the Mohs scale. ”

Li Sheng was a little puzzled, why Mo Changfeng suddenly looked for him.

In the afternoon, he still had a little business on his hands. Still, he went to Mohs.

When he arrived at Mo Changfeng's office, Mo Changfeng was reading a document: "Uncle, is there something wrong with you calling me here?" ”

Seeing him come in, Mo Changfeng put down the documents, took off his reading glasses, and said, "It's here." Sit! ”

The place where Mo Changfeng pointed was the sofa in the small living room, and he also stood up after speaking.

The two sat down on the sofa, and Mo Changfeng asked the secretary to make two cups of tea and came in. After the secretary left, he said to Li Sheng: "I saw the news a few days ago, saying that you bought a desert on the African side? ”

Seeing Li Sheng nodding, he continued: "A deputy district chief over there in Inner Mongolia contacted me. ”

Li Sheng blinked and said, "Before, I planned to contract a piece of land in the Kubuqi Desert in Inner Mongolia, but their conditions were a bit excessive, so I asked people to buy a piece of desert in Africa instead." ”

Mo Changfeng nodded and said, "I have also heard this gossip. You're doing the right thing. They contacted me in the hope that I could persuade you to still contract that place. But I'm glad to see you so decisive! ”

Li Sheng smiled and said, "Then they, will you be embarrassed." ”

"Hehe, what am I embarrassed about? I don't depend on them for food. Mo Changfeng said with a smile.

But he paused and said, "But if it's possible, you still have to give some face." Even if you don't plan to contract, you can talk to them. I've heard that the above are very unhappy that they let go of your investment this time, which is why they are in such a hurry. ”

Li Sheng said with a smile: "They also contacted my assistant several times. I am also ready to negotiate directly with them. ”

Mo Changfeng heard him say that, nodded and said, "Actually, I think you are more thoughtful. This time they took the initiative to find you because of the pressure from above. Now that they're moving, if you don't cooperate, the dissatisfaction above will be transferred to you somewhat. That's pretty bad for your career back home. ”

"I understand."

"If only you understood." Mo Changfeng laughed self-deprecatingly and said. "Being upright and principled is an advantage. But you can't help but be flexible. ”

Li Sheng has passed the age of rebellion, and he will not feel uncomfortable with his preachy words. He can still tell the difference between good and bad. (To be continued.) )
