Chapter 730: Azurite Ore is Back

Entering the hotel, Luo Youmin took everyone to sit in the hall, and Wuyang walked straight towards him. Luo Youmin saw the afternoon sun and quickly got up to greet him.

"Boss, you're here."

Wuyang held his hand, "Youmin, it's hard, the brothers have worked hard." Then he waved to the waiter, and the waiter came over, and Wuyang knew that it was the manager of the restaurant, and asked, "Why hasn't the food been served yet?" ”

The waiter said: "Boss, in addition to individual customers tonight, there are 3 stalls of banquets, and the hall and box are full." It takes some time to kill pigs and cows, and vegetables have to be picked from the ground, so it was delayed, but they will be ready to serve soon. ”

Wuyang knew that the business here was good, and the dishes prepared every day would be used up, and when he asked her just now, he also had the meaning of Kuanluo Youmin's heart. "Okay, I don't blame you, you go and arrange for the brothers to serve wine, and the portion of the other food should be sufficient."

Luo Youmin said: "Stir-fry a few more green vegetables, including cabbage moss, fast vegetables, etc., and come up in a big bowl." Boss, don't drink anymore, and the brothers will have to drive later. ”

"You ask the brothers to hand over the car keys to the security company and drink with confidence. If you live in Lujiang, you just need to know how to go home, and if you live in other places, you can live here at night, and you can open as many beds as you need. ”

The manager of the restaurant took the order and left, and Wuyang said again: "Youmin, the brothers who participated in the transportation this time will each be given a bonus of 10,000 yuan, and other subsidies will remain unchanged." The brothers who worked in the mines, who were far from home and worked in such bitter cold places, had their bonuses doubled. ”

Luo Youmin said: "Boss, we haven't made much profit yet. ”

"It doesn't matter. It's all paid by the company. ”

"Thank you to the owner. Boss. I'm back this time. But I brought back bad news. ”

"What's the news?"

"After this year's elections in Mongolia, many opposition forces have more say, and they may put up a lot of obstacles to foreign companies mining in Mongolia, and our mining rights may be revoked, or Mongolia will have a 51% stake," Luo said. ”

"Why didn't Chen Fenqiang mention these things when he went to negotiate with them?"

In fact, they have already introduced the Foreign Investment Law this year, which stipulates the shares of foreign investors in Mongolian enterprises in the future. It cannot exceed 50%. ”

Wuyang asked, "Is there already any practical action?" ”

"There you have it. Chinalco has been forced to abandon the acquisition of shares of SouthGobi Resources Co., Ltd., and many companies have been forced to cancel their mergers and acquisitions in Mongolian mining projects. ”

"Did you and Chen Fenqiang go to find someone?"

"I asked Chen Fenqiang to find it, and people don't dare to guarantee it now. Mongolia's anti-corruption work has been done very well, and some people are afraid to contact him, but they just spread the word, because our company's projects are all resources for construction projects, and they are not involved for the time being. When the construction project is completed, no one will know whether those treaties can be fulfilled or not. ”

Wuyang said: "Mongolia's coal and metal products. The market is basically our country, have they considered the consequences of doing so? ”

"That's the contradiction. If it's really all implemented. There is no more money to mine and no market for products. If they don't implement it, then their mines will be mined by others, and the money will be made by others, so they will be in a dilemma. ”

Wuyang smiled: "This also puts us in a dilemma." If we don't build power plants and roads, our mines won't be able to be mined, selected and smelted, and if roads and power plants are built, people kick us away, or take out that law, we will definitely not give up, but the profits will shrink. This is something that needs to be thought about. ”

"Boss, I think that while we are building, we will first mine the more valuable mines, such as azurite and diamond mines, which are enough for the generators we brought over, anyway, lighting and drilling holes, and the rest are machinery. By the time the power plant was built, the mines were almost mined, and our investment came back. At present, the electricity of wind power plants can supply 4 or 500 smelting furnaces, and it is still increasing, and the increase is in extremely remote places, and the Mongolian government does not necessarily know that we can still seize the time to smelt some gold. ”

"It's a solution, but what about later?"

"In the future, we can only take one step at a time, if they insist on taking shares, we only produce, not sell, and force them to comply; If they don't mention the matter of shares, we will start production at full capacity and mine it in the shortest possible time. ”

"Okay, let's do it this way. But we still can't get stiff with others, we still have to understand others. Foreigners open mines in our country, and the Chinese people are also scolding. Even if they have 51% of the shares, it is better than getting stiff and leaving. ”

Luo Youmin said: "Boss, I will be flexible, if I can take the waterway, I still have to take the waterway, so that we can exchange the minimum price for the maximum profit, why don't we do it?" ”

Wuyang said: "Don't tell me about this kind of thing, I don't want to know." Youmin, I have something for you to do, and you have to do it for me. ”

"What's the matter, the boss just orders."

"Let's go to the side and talk about it."

Luo Youmin went to the side with Wuyang, "That's the case, my ancestor Grandpa Zhang is about to go over, he expects to find the ancient tomb over there, if it is not found, there is nothing, if it is found, you know what to do, right?" ”

"Organize the strength to dig."

"Yes, just let them obey Grandpa Zhang's arrangement, you are responsible for selecting the personnel, hand them over to Grandpa Zhang, and you don't have to participate in the rest. Youmin, when you select personnel, you should select those officers and soldiers who have retired from the army, whose backgrounds are not complicated, who are highly disciplined, and who can bear hardships and stand hard work. ”

"Well, veterans are a big deal in the company, and it's not difficult to choose. Boss, how do you serve such a good wine? More than 1,000 bottles. These people are all masters who don't want to die when they see wine, and they don't have half a pound and don't enjoy it. ”

"The wine is bad, how can you be worthy of you heroes? You can drink as much as you can. You drink slowly. I'm leaving. Chairman Xiong will arrange for someone from the security company to come over, so you can talk to the brothers. ”

"Boss, let's go." Luo Youmin held Wuyang's outstretched hand and said with a smile.

At about 10 o'clock in the morning the next day, Wuyang had just written something on the computer for a while, and Xiong Gangqiang's phone call came in, "Secretary, the goods have been unloaded, and I brought back 3 pieces of azur ore for you." It's on your doorstep. ”

"Okay, I'll get it right away."

When I went downstairs to the door, Xiong Gangqiang was standing there with a woven bag at his feet, and Wuyang said, "Chairman Xiong, you haven't slept since last night, right?" ”

"I didn't go to bed, I slept on the couch in the office in the basement of the round building for a few hours, or I couldn't stand it. Secretary, these ores are all about the same, but they are different in size, and I took 3 pieces according to your request. ”

Wuyang took out a piece from the woven bag. A very small piece, heavy in your hand. The density of copper is 8.92. That is to say, 1 cubic centimeter is 8.92 grams, and the volume of an ordinary cigarette box is 114 cubic centimeters, and there are 1016 grams of copper of the same size. Now this ore is not pure copper, it is slightly less dense than copper, but it is the volume of 5 or 6 cigarette boxes, which is enough for 5 kilograms.

The surface of the ore is uneven, looking like the mountains on a topographic map, and at first glance it is blue, which can be examined closely, and it is covered with gray meridians, although the copper content is reduced, which can add a lot of color to the beauty of the ore.

Xiong Gangqiang said: "Secretary, this ore is really beautiful, even I, a layman, like it." ”

"This ore is more beautiful than other ores, but its value, beautiful is only one aspect, the content or something, is a negligible aspect, the most important thing, is its rarity, the world is so dozens of tons, we only have two tons in China. Since the discovery of these two tons in 1978, they have not been found for more than 20 years, which is why collectors and ore enthusiasts flock to them. ”

"No wonder you have to keep it strictly secret, we have mined so much, if everyone knows, we can't afford to sell it at a high price. What do you estimate for such an ore? ”

Wuyang smiled, "I don't know, there has been no buying and selling before, and there is no price or market, and the few pieces I want are also ready to be given away." ”

"After giving it away, the news will definitely get out, and the well-informed ones will come to the door, and what kind of sales strategy do we want to determine?"

"The people I send don't get the word out, and if I want one of them to tell them, it might be known. So I had to negotiate with him, whether to sell or not, and whoever set the price, I had to get his approval. As for how much to sell, that's our business. I think that the specific amount of ore we have, or we must keep it secret, selling about 500 kilograms a year, we must stop, otherwise people think it is Chinese cabbage, how much we want, and we are in a hurry to get rid of it, and people will not pay a high price. ”

Xiong Gangqiang said: "Secretary, this will not work. Yesterday I looked at the ore, there are not many small pieces, basically all of them are tons of one piece, and the largest one is nearly 20 tons. Because one piece is a whole, the shape is more beautiful, and if it is separated, there will be no such beauty. You say you sell a few hundred kilograms a year, but you still have to smash it? ”

"Don't sell the big ones, keep them in our museum. We have 7 color jadeite, with azurite ore, with Lantian jade ore, as well as a variety of gemstones, diamond ore, Mao Dashan also developed gold and silver and other ore ornaments, if you find a way to get some crystal or something, you can run a separate ore exhibition hall. ”

Xiong Gangqiang smiled: "That's too much, why can't it be so much." ”

"If a buyer wants something, we can still transfer some of it. Now there is too little azurite ore and has not entered the smelting stage, if there is too much ore in the future, we will smelt it out and use blue copper as a decorative material, which is also a choice. ”

"That would be a waste, and you still have to sell the ore. Since the German Chancellor knows about azurite, there must be many people who know about this ore, and it is not impossible for people to buy a few pieces with the country's financial resources. ”

"Well, as long as the price is right, it's not selling to anyone. These are all things for later, and we will not be too late to worry about them then. ”

Xiong Gangqiang said: "In the past few days, I have set up an organization to sell azur ore, with a few people to manage this matter. Otherwise, with your status in officialdom. The leader wants a piece. You can't afford not to give it. So you're better behind the scenes. ”

Wuyang smiled: "Of course I can only be behind the scenes. Chairman Xiong, except for these 3 pieces, they will all be sold by the company you set up in the future. ”

After Xiong Gangqiang left, Wuyang returned to the room, thought about it, and felt that he still had to call Brother Zhang and tell him about the situation. I dialed the phone, "Hello big brother. Busy lately? ”

Brother Zhang said with a smile: "I have never been idle, it is just some regular work, that is, mundane affairs." Dude, is there something wrong with the call? ”

"Big brother, can't you call if you're fine?"

"We should be in touch often. Brother, I'm in a good mood now, I'm about to have a son, this is sure in Yanzi's belly, Heyman is a man or a woman, I have to go to Hong Kong for a checkup next month. ”

"Congratulations to the eldest brother Ding Xingwang. Eldest brother. I have one more thing to report to you, the azurite you talked about last time has been found. I'll bring it to you this time. ”

"Really? That's great. How many were found? Brother, it doesn't matter if you sue me, I'll just buy one piece from you. ”

"Big brother, aren't you talking about raw words? How can I ask you to buy it, I rarely find something that my eldest brother likes, and my eldest brother will definitely give me this face. ”

Brother Zhang smiled and said: "Brother is the way of righteousness, in the words of you Zhongnan, it is called understanding taste." You bring me a small one, two or three kilograms is fine. But I'm definitely going to pay, don't be angry, like you, I also have a bottom line, let's encourage each other, okay? ”

"Okay, thank you, big brother. I prepared a piece of 5 kg for you, and I always feel a little bit out of reach, otherwise bring another piece, and you will help me bring it to the old man? ”

"The old man lives in the courtyard of the deep house, after a hundred years, all things will be handed over to the state, there is no need to send the ore, you can bring your ancestor over and help the old man take a look, it will be a great achievement."

Wuyang said: "Big brother, don't worry, the ancestor has asked me to invite back from Europe, we are going to enter Beijing on the 4th, please take Grandpa Zhang in at that time." ”

"Of course this is my business, and I should do it. Brother, with your ancestor's skills, it's okay to help a few more people sort out, right? ”

"Grandpa Zhang himself is fine, as long as there is alcohol to drink, he can work 12 hours a day. That is, if the other party can't be sorted out, Grandpa Zhang may refuse, he is not afraid of causing others to be unhappy, so I can't help but have scruples. ”

"Okay, when the old man of our family goes to tell the old chiefs, I will ask him to tell you on his behalf, and it will not cause unpleasantness. Brother, how many azurite mines have you found, can't you sue me? ”

Wuyang smiled and said: "What is there to keep secret from my eldest brother, I got a car back yesterday, and I haven't had time to see it, but they just asked them to bring me a piece back." The small one is just such a piece, and the others are all large pieces, which seems to be specially prepared for the eldest brother. ”

"Brother, before you got it, I boasted to my friends that as long as you were given time, as long as there was such a thing on this earth, you would have nothing that you couldn't find, and now it really didn't disappoint me. In this way, I will sue a few big bosses, let them go over tomorrow, and you can deal with it early and rest assured. ”

"Big brother, this kind of thing has no price reference, so it's not easy to do."

"That's true, if the price is low, you will suffer, and if the price is high, you will be afraid that people will say you. In this way, I'll set you a price, 200 million per kilogram. This price should not be high or low, similar to the imperial green jadeite of the glass species, what do you say? But you are a big party, and it is not good to come forward to do business, so you can sue me, who are they coming to? ”

Wuyang said: "Big brother is very thoughtful, when they come, they will find Chairman Xiong of the board of directors of the company, and I will tell you Chairman Xiong's phone number." ”

After telling him the phone number, Brother Zhang smiled and said, "Brother, this time I have arranged villas for Yanzi and Haiman, and the room is still empty, so I won't be polite to you, you have to help me buy a few good things." ”

When Wuyang heard him say this, he knew that he must not be able to shirk it, fortunately, he was not short of these things, and Brother Zhang would not accept gifts, but what he said was too general, and he was afraid that if he got something taboo, he would pat the horse's hooves. "Big brother, what type of objects do you like, you have to tell me, or I'm afraid you don't like it, right?"

"Dude, you did get the point. Yanzi and Heyman are both pregnant, so don't get those unearthed things, just find some porcelain that Grandpa Zhang picked up from Europe, and I don't want anything else. ”

"Big brother, porcelain is not a problem, I also have other things, such as calligraphy and painting, jade, ivory carving, wood carving, weapons and so on, I can bring it to you."

"I don't want you to get these things, you go to work all the time, and you can't get good things, I've already bought some from others."

"Big brother, how can others buy these valuables?"

Brother Zhang smiled: "Underestimate people, don't you?" If you have money, you won't allow others to be rich? Besides, these things are often not bought with money, but with heart and opportunity. Okay, I won't tell you, you're busy. ”

After hanging up, Wuyang went downstairs to the Heyuan Museum and prepared some porcelain for Brother Zhang. Although Tan Changqiao refused to ask for a sword, there was a lot of porcelain after all, and Tan Changqiao should have no reason to refuse.

As soon as I took the key to the Mercedes-Benz off-road vehicle in the glass cabinet in the corridor on the first floor, I received a call from Li Xize, "Brother Li, I'm on the plane now, and I'll be at your Zhongnan International Airport in about half an hour." ”

"Nishizawa, are you here for me?"

"Yes and no, it's my uncle who is coming to you. I was going to call you a long time ago, but my uncle said that you must be at home and you can find it when you come, so he won't let me call. When I got on the plane, I remembered, and I didn't know if you lived in Lujiang or Yihe. ”

"I haven't settled down in Yihe yet, I'm staying in my hometown, I'll drive over to pick you up right away, you wait a minute. Nishizawa, what's the matter with Uncle coming here? ”

"Let Uncle tell you."

An unfamiliar voice came from the earpiece, "Secretary Li, hello." ”

"Uncle, don't call it that, your name is Xiao Li."

"It's okay, I'll call you Xiao Li. Xiao Li, I came to Zhongnan, in fact, there is nothing to do, just to relax and meet you, a new political star. ”

"You can choose Zhongnan to relax, because you can afford me. You are the leader, I will inform the reception of the provincial party committee to pick you up at the airport, and I will be there immediately. ”

"Xiao Li, don't stir up the crowd, this is purely a private activity for me, I don't want to alarm too many people, just break the bank, it's best to have coarse tea and light rice."

"Okay, please come and live the life of our common people."

"Okay, let's meet and talk."

Wuyang is a little embarrassed, these two are the brother and son of the faction boss, if they don't let them come to the house, it will not be close, if they come to the house, this situation can't let them know, the stone villa is too luxurious, they can only go to Xinyuan. Xinyuan has its own villa, which is not too luxurious, and with Li Xilin's understanding of himself, it is more suitable to live in such a villa.

immediately went upstairs and asked Xiaoya to call her parents and leave for Xinyuan to prepare for the reception. Xiaoya asked, "Do you want to cook there?" ”

"Don't eat at home, boil water to make tea, just sit down. Remember to smell the room for musty smells and spray some air fresheners. ”

"Okay, got it, you go pick it up." (To be continued......)
