Whether it's the living Iraq or the wasteland of Iraq, there aren't many minerals worth exploiting.

Because both worlds have a large amount of crude oil, relatively speaking, the divisions of various mineral resources are all scattered after all, even under the desert, there are some minerals that can be put on the table.

In the Middle East, where there are more minerals, to the east of the Middle East, there will be relatively more minerals from Iran to Pakistan and Afghanistan.

Compared with the mineral reserves of the whole world, the minerals in the Middle East are really not very much, and if there is no foreign mineral supplement, it can only basically meet the early development of the base.

Because even if all of them are developed, all the minerals in Iraq in the two worlds will only bring in about 6 million yuan a day at most.

The development time is less than five years at most, and then there will be no new minerals to be developed in Iraq in both worlds.

The total value of all the minerals in the two worlds is about 10 billion dollars.

However, less is better than nothing, after all, Cai Ruichen's eyes are now not staring at this little bit of territory near the base.

His eyes are now on the whole world, especially in Africa, a virgin land that has not yet been exploited by many people.

Prospectors have appeared in large numbers on African soil, secretly exploring for mineral resources, and have been quite fruitful.

After a year of preparation, we are about to begin secretly dismantling the ore in Africa, where it will all be recycled at the nearest ore refinery.

To this end, Cai Ruichen also had to prepare enough scientific and technological expansion stations. Follow in the footsteps of prospectors and uncover minerals in the tropical jungles and deserts of Africa.

Although, until now. There has been no formal mineral recovery as funds, and the total amount of investment has exceeded 500 million funds, but Cai Ruichen is confident that these investments and arrangements can bring at least tens of millions of funds per day in the next few years.

Only the first pot of gold up. In the future, the scale of such mining will continue to expand, and the income will be more in the future.

While the plan for stealthily mining was being executed, another plan was also in full swing. In recent years, several mining companies have emerged in some mineral-rich countries.

These mining companies are also Cai Ruichen's handiwork, but the outside world can't find any relationship between these companies and him.

These minerals are developed by the company. They all have a lot of money in their hands. And almost all of them are sole proprietorships.

At present, all of these companies have some minerals in each country, and some of them are being prepared for mining.

The harvest time is also approaching, and the secret mining of African minerals, as well as the formalization of mining by mining companies, once these two steps are fully completed, it is enough to provide a large amount of funds to the base for a long time.

From the outset of the plan, the amount of funds recovered in both programs within 10 years after the two programs officially became effective. It is expected that 500,000 tons of minerals will be mined per day, and the recovered funds will reach 50 million per day.

Presently. These two programs do not yet see tangible results, but they are indispensable and important sources of funding for the future.

Now the minerals imported by the Future Technology Group are all mainly from Australia and South America, and South American countries can say that unless the United States completely blocks and intercepts all cargo ships transporting minerals, the minerals from South America will basically not be broken.

Minerals from Australia are likely to be completely cut off because of the relationship with the United States.

If relations with the United States are average, this route may not have much impact, and if it is in a completely hostile relationship with the United States, then basically do not expect Australian minerals to reach Iraq.

Once the loss of foreign minerals, the daily capital income of the base will be greatly affected, after all, whether it is now, or in the next time, the main capital income of the base is also the need for the provision of foreign minerals.

This can almost be said to be the lifeline of the base's development, but this lifeline is very fragile and can be easily cut off by opponents.

Therefore, Cai Ruichen needs to prepare another lifeline, a safe lifeline, to ensure a stable source of funds for the future development of the base.

At present, there is not much time left for Cai Ruichen, and he still has enough circulating funds in his hands.

What he has to think about now is not that he wants to develop all the minerals of the two worlds as soon as possible.

Instead, he is considering finding a way to exchange the currency in his hand for funds as soon as possible, and the current import of minerals, in Cai Ruichen's view, is just a small fight.

In the next year and a half, Cai Ruichen felt that it was very necessary to prepare at least 20 billion war funds for himself.

The 20 billion war fund does not mean that in a year and a half, 20 billion yuan will be recovered.

Instead, it is necessary to meet the consumption of funds during this period of time, and there are still 20 billion war funds left.

In a year and a half, two tens of billions of funds were in stock, that is, in this year and a half, nearly 40 million funds had to be saved every day.

With a capital of 40 million, an additional 400,000 tons of minerals need to be recovered every day, and the capital consumption must be increased to 20 million per day, which is a very difficult thing for Iraq's current port throughput and the scale of sea transportation.

However, these are difficulties that can be quickly overcome, after all, not all minerals need to be shipped to Iraq to be recovered.

Otherwise, transporting 600,000 tons of minerals to Iraq every day is not a simple matter, and the cost will not be too small.

The best way to do this is to build a mineral refinery next to the main mineral export port and collect the money directly in the vicinity, even if it is not possible to recover all the money needed every day.

And for many mining companies, having such a big customer is simply a god-like existence.

After all, the world's current mineral exports are very sluggish, and the price has fallen again and again, and there are more than 10 million tons of minerals piled up in the export port warehouse in the world, which seriously affects the price of the entire mineral industry.

Cai Ruichen now has money in his hands, and in such a world mineral environment, there is no one to block it, and no one will refuse such benefits.

Soon a rough planning framework appeared in his mind, and gradually took shape.

However, there is a disadvantage of such a plan, that is, it is very likely to face the risk of being frozen, but by that time, I believe that the goal of 20 billion funds will be almost completed.
