Chapter 71: Operation Gold Plunder (1)

Ye Tan came back and ordered Dong Liwu to sweep away Ah San and the Annamite people who were entrenched in the area of the dock overnight, as well as the Japanese!

Early the next morning, Ye Tan and Dong Liwu ordered 500 security guards, brought 20 self-made steam engine-driven stone crushers and mills, and a large number of materials, and took a boat from Cape Lobos to Bolinas Bay.

The planning and design of the cement plant and the steel processing plant had to be investigated on site before Ye Tan could do it. It takes more than 10 days.

In fact, in the United States, where industry was just starting, it did not even have the equipment needed for rotary kilns. Leaf sandalwood can only be replaced by an earthen kiln.

The limestone is ground into raw meal, and then according to the standard data, bauxite powder, iron ore powder and other mixtures are added, and then calcined mature material, which is sulfate-resistant cement. It is suitable for use in coastal places with high sulfate concentrations.

As for the steel processing plant, the foundation can only be laid first. Wait until the Champs side, all the equipment will be processed, and then shipped over by ship for assembly, and then it can be put into use.

Ye Tan kept telling himself that things can't be rushed, can't be rushed, step by step.

Despite the presence of John. With the help of Weller and Jeb Kuta, the promotion and profitability of penicillin could not be done overnight without the advertising bombardment of later generations. Ye Tan knew very well that only in the Civil War 3 years later would penicillin be profitable.

400,000 people were injured, even if a penicillin was discounted by 5%, plus the distribution of goods, Ye Tan would have to earn 100 million US dollars.

If in these three years, vigorously launch and promote Ye's new rifles, as for the later generations of Krupp 75 mm mountain guns, field guns, and Italian mountain guns, etc., they will be secretly mass-produced first. Ye Tan believes that whether it is weapons or medicines, they can make a lot of money!

Chambers is moving very quickly in New York, having acquired North American Steel, Eastern Steel, Pennsylvania Steel, Pittsburgh Steel and Puges Steel, five steel companies with an annual output of 2,000 tons each. At the same time, the Solomon Arms Factory and the Hedwis Arms Factory were acquired. and changed to Thunder Arms Limited. Ye Tan plagiarized Mosin. Nagant rifles, 7-round YP 1, 11-round YP 2, and Mauser C96 YP 1858 pistol. Trial production has already begun, and the test gun program is underway.

At present, the simplest, shortest and most justifiable way to make a fortune is still gold panning!

Therefore, when he came back from Bolinas Bay, Ye Tan first arranged the personnel and the excavation plan of the project. Then, in the name of delivering fruit tree seedlings and patrolling the site, he rushed to the Mariposa gold mine in Sacramento with 1,500 security guards led by Tie Niu, Meng Hu and Deng Zhi, as well as their parents, and 10 irrigation equipment.

Later, the large gold mine in Mariposa, five years later, was included in the state production of California and managed by the Vermonriet Company, with a gold output of 33 grams per ton. In this Mariposa, there are more than 10 mining sites. The most famous of these is the Ogle Gorge, which later produced a total of 5,612 tons of gold. There is also the Matrod Gold Belt, which produced a total of 1,550 tonnes of gold (50 million ounces).

A large part of the more than 5,000 tons of gold stored in the American vaults in later generations was contributed by these two gold mines.

Now, Ye Tan is the first to strike!

More than 1,500 people boarded the ship from Brisbane in the Bay Area and landed near Milpitas four hours later.

Ritt, who had been waiting for a long time in the morning, brought more than 100 wagons with him.

Since the Bank of Shiyangzhou was smashed, Ye Tan sent Rioat, Kimbernan, Leodor Gold, and George Orton to St. Hes to prepare a large number of alchemy materials.

Riat knew better than anyone about the thrilling events in San Francisco. Now that Ye Tan is here intact, it means that the boss has the last laugh. And in one day, the boss took half of San Francisco and an Ires Peninsula. The most important thing is that I heard that the boss may have a miracle medicine in his hands. Therefore, he had to work hard to show his loyalty and hard work.

As soon as he saw Ye Tan and his family, Liat put down the reserve and arrogance of Huiji, and stepped forward to greet him courteously: "Boss, old man, old lady, you are here." ”

"Ritt, are the meals ready?"

Ye Tan arranged the time too tightly, he didn't have time to waste his tongue on Ritt, and asked directly.

"Boss, it's all OK! Eat now, the temperature is just right. ”

Seeing that Lyat was so attentive and more attentive than Ne Benli, Ye Tan patted him on the shoulder: "Rioat, it's very good, you let Debil and Gao Xi come here, and I'll arrange things for you." ”

The three of them quickly concentrated in front of Ye Tan.

"Ritt, things have settled down, and our S-Oceania Bank is ready for business. The specific expenses are discussed with Yu Han and Yin Hong. Gao Xi, Dai Bile, after you go back, accompany Li Danghong and go to Guangnan Dongdao in the Qing Dynasty together. The specific task, Liu Juliu will talk to you in detail. ”

After only half an hour's rest, everyone began to unload machinery and materials from the cargo ship, as well as fruit tree saplings, and load them onto the wagon.

With Ye Tan's help, in less than an hour, everyone started to set off.

Far away in New York, John Brown with penicillin vigorously publicist. Weller, when he received the news from the telegram that Ye Tan had gone to plant fruit trees, he also shook his head incomprehensibly.

Penicillin works very well!

John. As soon as Weller arrived in New York, he encountered a fever with Vanderbilt's lung infection. Hearing the news of John. Weller immediately personally delivered two vials of penicillin and a syringe, as well as instructions for the injection.

In less than half an hour, Vanderbilt, who had a fever, summoned John. Weller. Subsequently, with the support of Vanderbilt, the well-known consortium families in New York: Morgan, Locke, Brown, McJackson, Hunter, Richardson, Lovell, Mellon, Lawrence, Lodge, Adams, Wood, and Michael, formed a group to divide up six export rights of penicillin, as well as the construction and operation of the East-West Railroad.

It is more than 780 kilometers from Mürtas to St. Hoth, east to Paxant, and then to Mariposa. Moreover, the mountain is high and the road is steep, and in some places, it is necessary to carve out a road by manpower.

Eight platoons and 300 workers were sent earlier, and more than 180 of them went to Lake Mono on the same road. In addition to measuring the land, the main task is to be responsible for opening roads.

Therefore, Ye Tan's journey has been quite smooth.

The quality of these security guards is very good, and at a speed of 15 kilometers per hour, they follow closely behind the carriage. A 15-hour march in one day is a distance of 225 kilometers. Except for one hour of eating and resting, the remaining 8 hours are sleep time.

It wasn't until about 10:20 a.m. on the fifth day that everyone arrived in Mariposa. Ye Tan took them directly to the Golden Sands Mine in Oger Canyon.

Seeing the golden sand shining all over the ground, the big one was the size of a thumb, and the small one was as small as a grain of rice, and everyone couldn't sit still.

Even Ye Tan's parents, holding a handful of gold ore in both hands, looked at at at least more than a third of the golden sands, they trembled with excitement, and said incoherently: "Ah Tan, is this—is this true?" ”

"Mom! Don't get excited, these golden sands belong to our family. ”

Ye Tan looked at his mother's excited appearance, worried that she smiled crookedly, so anxious that Ye Tan helped the Qin family in distress and said comfortingly.

"Ah Wei, listen to your son."

Ye Shengde was like this at the beginning, and when Ye Tan said this, he suddenly woke up. Instead, he pretended to treat money as if he was dung, and said generously.

"Humph! I want you to say! Old thing, don't try to be lazy! Hurry up and pick up the gold, and when I get back, I will make jewelry for my future daughter-in-law. ”

The Qin family was rare and majestic, and he pointed at his husband.

PS: I don't know what's going on during this time, I can't write into the state. But I'm still cheeky to ask for recommendations and collections!
