Chapter 120: Education (I)
PS: The power was out for several hours at home, and now it has been restored.
This chapter adds 90 monthly passes.
――――――
Li Lan did not give up, directly opened the list of ore types, and spent a full two hours, constantly asking the assistant. It wasn't until his mouth was dry that he gave up completely.
As for the ores on the periodic table, Li Lan combined with the international prices, those that are prohibited from export, other internationally circulated ores, the recovery price and the purchase price, after comparison, the value of iron ore is the highest.
However, no matter how high the value is, it is still as high as 1:8. At this price, the cost of a Rhino tank is equivalent to 640,000 US dollars. Compared with the price of the main battle tanks of other countries, this price is already very cheap, but Li Lan is still very dissatisfied. Because there is an upgraded version of the Rhino tank, this is only a level one, and there are two levels of enhancement and a third level of elite in the back.
The ratio of using oil to recycle into base funds is 1:18 US dollars, which is also forcing Li Lan not to recycle oil anymore.
Previously, he had already been good at being an arms dealer, and he was still thinking about selling weapons like selling cabbage, impacting the international military market. Now, it is not impossible for him to implement this idea, but he doesn't have much money.
As for the performance of the weapon, Li Lan is not worried, taking the Rhino tank as an example, there is no doubt that it belongs to the third generation of tanks. The cheapest export price of the third-generation tanks of Shijie countries is the T-90S exported by Russia to India, each of which costs two million US dollars, which belongs to the castrated monkey version.
And the MBT-2000 jointly developed by China and Pakistan. The price is $5 million per vehicle. As for the Abrams of the United States, it is completely consistent with the nature of the United States, which has always been expensive. A standard Abrams costs about $5 million. (The result of a large number of constructions and an equal distribution of research funds.) The price in the United States is between 8 million and 12 million, according to the long-standing policy of the US military, and there are many political conditions attached.
Li Lan naturally did not dare to compare the Rhino with the latest Abrams, but compared to many third-generation tanks, the Rhino is not very disadvantaged. After all, the current Rhino tank is only one level, which is equivalent to the first batch of finalized vehicles of the third generation tank, and there are two levels behind it, which belongs to the strengthened type.
But. If compared with the T-90S sold by Russia to India, Li Lan is confident that the Rhino will be compared with the T-90S in India's hands, and the T-90S Rhino tank in the Russian army may admit defeat, but in the face of the T-90S sold abroad, it is not certain who will win and who will be inferior.
Of course, if you convert it to bullets, a forty-dollar bullet will sell for forty times the profit. Previously. The three hundred times that Li Lan thought of was pure fantasy. This plus and one subtraction is a huge difference. The gold content of the base funds is still very sufficient. It depends on how Li Lan uses it.
The profit on arms is still very objective, compared with the cost of weapons in other countries, the price given by the base. It's very cheap. You don't need to spend a lot of money on research, and you don't need to spend a lot of money to come. As long as you have the funds, you can quickly get weapons.
Depends on the amount of funds recovered by the province so far. If you want Li Lan to let go of the violent army, the source of funds is a big obstacle.
In order to live a beautiful life in the future, Li Lan picked up the banknote, drew it with a smug face, and said something in his mouth: "A ton of high-purity iron ore is worth two hundred US dollars, which can be exchanged for twenty-five base funds." If you import 10 million tons of high-purity iron ore every year, you need to spend 2 billion US dollars, but you can get 250 million yuan of base funds. ”
"Assistant, how many tons of ore can be refined per day in an ore refinery?"
"With sufficient electricity, it can refine 200 tons per day."
"10 million tons, on average, is imported at 30,000 tons per day, and if these are consumed every day, an additional 150 ore refineries will need to be built to provide electricity, and at least 400 magnetic reactors will need to be built. If all the projects are started, you can get 750,000 base funds per day, plus the income of the ore refining plant, it is not impossible to break one million base funds per day. ”
After a simple calculation, Li Lan's heart beat fiercely. These are just his estimates, and to really achieve them, he needs at least a large port, and he needs a larger territory.
"Commander, there is currently no way to build so many ore refining plants in the base, please upgrade the commander to a higher level of authority." The assistant heard Li Lan's muttering and reminded him kindly.
"What's that?" Li Lan couldn't help but say.
"We'll find out when the commander gets more advanced clearance."
"Forget it, I'm too lazy to find out." Li Lan waved his hand, anyway, now he wants to buy iron ore, but he has no clue, even if he buys it, he can't ship it.
Needless to say, Possaso has now begun to completely block the territory's access to the outside world, and even Bossaso's only airport has entered a semi-closed state. Somaliland is now also succumbing to the pressure of Western countries, strictly restricting the berthing ships in the port of Berbera, allowing Li Lan to transport grain, and nothing else.
In the south, the nominal government of Somalia has always been supported by Western countries, but now it is also one-sided, and only the rebels support Li Lan in verbal form, without the slightest actual action.
In the past few days, Awei has begun to grow in courage, not only conscripting troops to the airport in the west of the city, but also changing from a defensive posture to an offensive posture, and the soldiers of the government army have begun to infiltrate all sides.
At the same time, under international interference, several large armed shili around Bossaso have joined forces with government forces to suppress the Shili tribe outside the city. The coalition formed by the various parties was disrupted by international interference.
Aweel also took the opportunity to make a big move, and gathered those small armed shili, these days, the whole of Bossaso is full of chickens and dogs, gunshots are heard everywhere, and one or two armed groups are co-opted or eliminated every day.
Li Lan's territory, which has been very calm and turbulent since the end of the day, has caused many civilians and refugees to flee here with their families. Li Lan did not refuse to come to this, and accepted one of them.
At this time, there were no fewer people living in the refugee camps outside the city, the refugee hospitals had long been put away, many tents had also been put away, and there were only about 10,000 refugees still outside the city. Some time ago, there were still more than 40,000 people in the refugee camp, and after Li Lan's order and the territory was about to close the work of recruiting refugees, the remaining 30,000 people hurriedly rushed to sign up.
There are still more than 10,000 people left, all of whom are lazy and lazy, and Li Lan did not drive them away, but ordered them to send food once a week to ensure that they can eat a little food every day and not starve to death.
Nearly five months have passed since the drought began, and nearly half a million people have been taken in in the territory, and hundreds or thousands of people are asking to become residents of the territory every day.
However, the territory did not immediately accept these civilians with firearms, but arranged temporary shelters for them outside the city, because the territory has a hard and fast law, that is, the residents are prohibited from owning weapons, which is the first prohibition of the territory.
Naturally, it is impossible for the refugees to have weapons on them, and these civilians who have come from Bossaso are more or less armed. Even under the insight of the military dogs, they have no malicious intent, but Li Lan is not at ease, weapons cannot be controlled by residents in the territory, this is the bottom line.
In other places, Li Lan doesn't care, and he can't control it, and in the territory, there are garrison battalions and mobilization troops composed of Somali youths to maintain law and order and form police departments. Coupled with more than 10,000 regular troops, it is enough to ensure their safety.
Li Lan forbade them to carry weapons, not because he was worried that they would make trouble, but because he wanted to establish a rule, if he wanted to become a resident of the territory, he had to obey the rules of the territory.
In the space of more than five months, various regulations have been established, the most important of which is the first written law of the territorial statute, which strictly prohibits the possession of firearms and ammunition by private persons.
At present, there are nearly 500,000 residents in the territory, and none of them have violated this law. Li Lan naturally couldn't let people bring guns in, but he didn't refuse these people.
Outside the city, soldiers who wanted to enter the city with weapons would buy their weapons at a high price, and give them priority in job and shelter.
This method is very earthy, but the effect is still very good, many people are willing to sell their weapons, and many people have taken identification and become new residents of the territory these days.
Now, Li Lan has completed a lot of advanced authority indicators, and the first thing he needs to do at present is to improve the people's sentiment index in addition to the rioters.
After taking a look at the unit under construction at the console, Li Lan stepped out of the base car and got into his car, a very ordinary off-road vehicle. More than a dozen of Li Lan's guards got on two armed Humvees and followed behind the off-road vehicles.
The SUV didn't go far before it stopped at the entrance to a newly built school called the University of Somalia. This university was specially established by Li Lan for the educational undertaking of the territory, and the teachers in it were specially hired by Farah, and many of the teachers were retired mobilized soldiers.
Schools have always been a key construction project in the territory, and more than 30% of the 500,000 residents in the territory are children and young people, and they have a good time when they officially go to school. From elementary school, middle school, high school, to this university, the basic education system has been gradually improved.
At this moment, a lot of people have gathered in the school, and there are many young Somali men and women wearing student uniforms on the huge playground, and in front of the playground is a small podium.
As a reporter, Maggie Lin is fiddling with her news team.
Mohammadi and Farah, on the other hand, were talking to the university faculty on a podium with a flagpole erected in one corner of the podium, and a Somali flag neatly stacked underneath. (To be continued......)
