Next chapter

It's a little bad to deal with the country, you can get a lot of fame, but you don't have a lot of money. ≯≯

The most valuable thing is probably this handmade Cossack war knife, Su Ming pulled it out in the car and played with it secretly for a while on the way to the banquet restaurant in the car.

It's so sharp, and without much force, I easily cut off the wooden car Xiaoice box in the car.

"Don't vandalize! Beware of a diplomatic accident! Su Ming glared, snatched the knife back from Nangong Huang's hand, and looked at the edge of the knife carefully, and he didn't know how it was forged, it was so sharp.

On the process of making cold weapons, although Huaxia does not dare to say that it is the first in the world, it used to be the top in the world, but it is a pity that the forging method has been almost completely lost in these years after the liberation, and the so-called retro swords on the market are basically like goods.

"Brother-in-law, get me a handful." Nangong Huang's eyes are shining, Zhao Yun's eyes are also a little shining, he is engaged in collecting, and this knife belongs to his business scope.

Seeing the two weasels staring at the little chick as if they were staring at the saber, Su Ming hurriedly put the knife back into its sheath.

The reception banquet was held in the town hall.

The so-called reception banquet, the real guests, just Su Ming and the three of them, experienced a brief reporter's questions and opening remarks, Su Ming coped with the scene and exchanged a few words of greetings with all sides, and toasted several military commanders of the 76th Airborne Division one by one, and then there was nothing for him, Russian government officials, officers of the 76th Airborne Division and reporters were chatting with each other.

Su Ming still has a serious matter to discuss with President Vladimir, Mr. President's time is very tight, and he will return to Moscow in two hours, Su Ming doesn't want to talk nonsense with a group of officials who can't call the shots.

In the small conference room next to the banquet hall, a huge map of Russia hangs.

In the top left corner of the map, at the top of a peninsula on the border with Finland, a small circle is drawn that is negligible compared to the entire territory of Russia.

Su Ming was ready to let the remaining Luhr people come to Russia to take root.

Russia is vast and sparsely populated, most of the land is uncultivated, and the Luhr people can lease a piece of land in Russia, or even become a Russian citizen, farm, hunt, pay taxes to the government, and live a peaceful life.

"The Kola Peninsula is a very nice place, with rivers and lakes, and a very pleasant natural environment, of course, for us Russians, it may take a while for the Lur people from Iraq to get used to it, where the temperature is between 7 and 18 degrees all year round, and for the Lur people, it may be a little cold at first.

However, the peninsula is rich in resources, several rivers on the island are important habitats for Atlantic salmon, both for fishing and farming, and the Luhr people can also learn to tamester reindeer from the Sami people on the island, and the peninsula faces the ocean, if you have enough money, you can develop the peninsula into an excellent fishing ground......"

A Russian official smiled and introduced, or sold the Kola Peninsula, Russia is ready to divide this peninsula with a total area of more than 100,000 square kilometers, an area by the sea to the Luer people, Su Ming investigated, only in terms of resources and environment, this peninsula is indeed very good, large forests and rivers, not opened by high-tech areas, many locals still maintain a relatively primitive and simple life, and there are many mineral deposits!

The geographical location is also very good, from 6 places and the ocean can easily reach the hinterland of Europe, if you want to go to the North Pole to play, take the boat and drive all the way; If you go to Finland, walk from 6 places, an hour's drive.

However, Su Ming is not naïve enough that Lao Maozi really treats himself as his father.

There is a reason why Russia happily agreed to divide residential areas on the peninsula.

First, there are basically no Russian residents on this island, and most of the towns scattered on it are indigenous people, and the status of these people in Russia is similar to that of the Luhr people in Iraq.

Second, the peninsula is an important outlet for Russia to the sea, and the headquarters of the Russian Northern Fleet is stationed in a key location on the peninsula. Under the noses of the Northern Fleet, neither the Luhr people nor the local natives could make any waves.

For Su Ming, neither of these points is important. He is not prepared to evade taxes, nor is he thinking of relying on a few thousand Lurs to subvert Russia and oppose Russia.

In theory, it's a win-win.

"What about the Gates of Hell?" Su Ming knocked on the table and said with a smile.

"Oh? That's just a legend! The Russian official was obviously stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "If there really is a gate of hell, Russia would have been occupied by the devil a long time ago, Mr. Su, you don't really believe it, right?" ”

The most famous of the Kola Peninsula is not reindeer and salmon, or even the Northern Fleet, but an abandoned mine called Hell's Gate.

As early as the former Soviet Union, the Soviet government created rich gold deposits on the Kra Peninsula and built a gold mine.

After drilling to a depth of more than 9ooo metres, the drill bit drilled into a formation containing gold and diamonds. Analysis of the removed core showed that the gold content was as high as 8o g/t!

Ordinary gold ore generally has a gold content of 4-8 grams per tonne, and it is almost impossible to find a layer with a gold content of more than 1o grams per ton in the earth's surface.

8o g/t, it's a treasure trove of gold.

In 1983, the well was said to have been drilled to a depth of 12ooo meters, but in the same year, the government abruptly halted mining and closed the mine.

The reason for the external claim is that it is due to a lack of funds, but insiders revealed that the real reason is that there are some natural phenomena in the well.

There are different opinions as to what exactly is a 'natural' phenomenon, and there is still no definite answer.

Some drilling technicians revealed to reporters that there were "demons" coming out of the bottom of the well, and the drilling work had to be stopped.

There are also claims that strange noises came from the well, and that researchers used heat-resistant recording equipment to put them into the mine and recorded sounds that resembled "human roars".

The most mysterious thing to say is that a famous Soviet geologist in the former Soviet Union revealed to them that when they drilled a hole nine miles deep, a monster with green fangs and wings flew out of it. Later they sent a pickup down the hole and heard a terrible scream, as if countless people were in great pain.

The truth is unknown, and over time, people have called this abandoned mine the 'Gate of Hell'.

The settlement of the Luhr people is only five kilometers away from the Gates of Hell, and from the top of the hill, you can see the Gates of Hell, which is the closest human settlement to the Gates of Hell. (To be continued.) )8
