Chapter 184 Mining in Burma (Part I)

Wenle stayed at Hu Zongxing's house for three days, and Hu Zongxing's brother-in-law finally returned, and he brought back a batch of wool from Myanmar this time, and the quantity was not very large. After Wenle met this capable middle-aged man with dark skin and red skin, during the conversation between the two parties, he told Wenle very bluntly, saying that the current market here is not as good as Tengchong's. Their main difficulty lies in transportation. If Bunraku needs a large quantity, he knows a lot of wool merchants, and he can bring Bunraku to collect it. However, he suggested that it would be best for Bunraku to go to the mines in Myanmar, where he also had some friends and the prices were low and the quantities were high.

Bunraku thought about it and decided to go to Myanmar with him. However, Hu Zongxing's old man, knowing that Wenle was going to Myanmar, hurriedly called his two sons-in-law and three sons and asked them to go with him, so as to protect Wenle's safety. Who knows, Wenle declined the old man's kindness. said that he only went with Hu Zongxing's brother-in-law, so it was convenient to go back and forth, and it was much faster to go quickly. The old man hurriedly called Hu Zongxing's brother-in-law Zhou Jianmin into the room and told him that he couldn't let Wenle be hurt at all no matter what, and he also made Zhou Jianmin nonsense, knowing that Wenle had an important surname for his brother-in-law, he still made a guarantee.

Sachiko and Akiko saw that Bunraku was going to Myanmar alone, and they were also clamoring to go, Bunraku told the two women about the not very good internal security in Myanmar, and "coaxed" and deceived, and after "coaxing" the two of them, they set off with Zhou Jianmin and the others. The two of them did not go to the port of sister's complaint, but crossed the border by a small road. In the opposite village, it was called Zhou Jianmin's brother-in-law Wusi. The three of them arrived at Myitkyina first, along the Uzhi Dengjiang River, and directly into the Hpakant jade mining area. After seeing the local leader Wagmu, Wagmu said in surprise: "Wusi, Zhou Jianmin, didn't you just go back?" It's coming so soon. ”

Uss hurriedly introduced Bunraku and Wagmu, and as soon as the two exchanged in English, they quickly became acquainted. It turned out that Wagmu was an international student at the University of Hong Kong, and because he was the only child in the family, he returned here from Hong Kong after graduating in 86. He was a distant relative of the Wusi family, which provided great convenience for Wusi and Zhou Jianmin to sell stones. In this way, the four people chatted, forming a strange circle, Wagmu and Bunraku communicated in English, and then told Uss in Dai language, and Uss told Zhou Jianmin in local dialect, on the contrary, Bunraku told Zhou Jianmin in Chinese, and Zhou Jianmin told Uss in Turkish, which is also quite interesting.

After hearing Wagmu's vision, Bunraku still admired his unique judgment of the situation. Since 62 years, Myanmar has implemented military management, and they are located in the deep mountains, and the transportation is very inconvenient, so the political axe has to implement a policy of softness and co-optation for these leaders. The Hpakant region has always been the source of jadeite, but due to the low mineral extraction capacity, the government has not implemented key management. If, as it is now, with China's opening up and opening up, border trade is becoming more and more active, minerals will eventually attract the attention of the political axe, and the bulk of this piece will be included in the income of the political axe.

According to his idea, it is to increase the construction and mining of new mines before the political axe has not paid attention to it, and when the political axe introduces new policies, it will not ignore the rights and interests of the original mine owners. In particular, if more Chinese are introduced to invest in mining here, the political axe will not easily introduce policies that are unfavorable to mine owners. From the sale of the land, he pocketed the money first. Therefore, he asked Zhou Jianmin to bring people here to build a mine again and again. Bunraku thought of the previous life, and there were really many Chinese who came to Myanmar to open mines. However, in the end, he was all made to open the public market by the political axe, and he was ruthlessly exploited, which caused the price of jadeite to remain high. Two thousand years later, the price of jadeite has risen 100 times compared to now.

Wenle understood Wagmu's idea, and immediately discussed with Zhou Jianmin and Wusi, letting the two of them here, open a mine with Zhou Jianmin's Chinese identity, and all the investment was made by Wenle, giving each of them 10% of the shares. Of course, Wagmu was very happy when he heard Bunraku's words, but Uss didn't know how much shares Bunraku was talking about, and asked for an annual salary of 100,000 yuan that would be better than paying him every year. Wenle smiled and said: "You, your vision is not long-term enough, okay, okay, I will pay you an annual salary of 100,000 yuan every year, I'm afraid that you will regret it then, what do you think?" It can also be said that we are not doing things for a day or two, but for long-term cooperation, so as not to leave a pimple in my heart when I get it, and I have no intention of working. ”

Zhou Jianmin's mind at this time was no longer on the number of shares, he thought of what the old man of his in-laws said, and also knew that Wenle was not an ordinary person, and there was still an idea of how much money he wanted, so he hurriedly said: "Boss Wen, I think it's better to follow what you say, don't listen to Wusi's nonsense, Wusi, you must listen to me in this matter." ”

Later, Uss saw that Bunraku's investment was all mechanized mining equipment, and these equipment alone amounted to tens of millions. Only then did I express my sincere admiration for this brother-in-law's decision at that time. Of course, that's all for later. Bunraku made the decision to invest in the mine, and for three consecutive days, accompanied by Wagmu, he surveyed the newly secluded mining area. Seeing that Bunraku was a little more casual, Wagmu Nian demarcated four places. Connected together, it is two large places, and they are all surrounded by mountains on three sides, and one side faces the water, and I am very happy, thinking that this is the son of that family, and I don't take money seriously at all.

Wagmu was happy in his heart, but he didn't show a word. However, he was so generous to Wenraku, and also gave some discounts, and the four places were combined into two to charge, with a total of 1 million yuan per year. If Bunraku sells out the mining rights for five years at a time and pays the bill, he can get another 10% discount. Wenle thought about it for a while, and sold out the mining rights of the two adjacent pieces of land for 500,000 yuan per year, and also sold out the mining rights for 5 years at a time. However, Bunraku proposed that the contract could be concluded first, and he would mine here for two years, and then mine there, and the money would be paid when the mining time came. In other words, the land is occupied first, and when it is mined two years later, the payment is made. When Wagmu heard Bunraku's request, it was also reasonable, and he immediately agreed.

Wagmu signed a contract with Bunraku, and Wagmu called his butler and asked him to accompany Bunraku and the three of them to buy jadeite wool stones, while he himself went to Myitkyina to handle the relevant legal documents. Accompanied by the steward, Bunraku would go to a mine and negotiate the price, and then make marks on the stones, and the steward would send people to help transport them. At that time, many mines discarded the cut colorless jadeite as scrap, and Bunraku also bought these materials at the request of the head. When he encountered the high-quality jadeite cut from various mines, he also accepted it boldly.
