Chapter 728: Visiting the Gold Mine
After listening to Zhou Baichuan's introduction, Ye Hao knew that all the gold mines in the world, combined, have an annual output of only 3,000 tons.
This number is much smaller than he originally estimated.
Things have become a little troublesome, if this statistic is accurate, then it is really not easy for Ye Hao to buy enough gold bricks to build a golden castle.
After the fat man learned about this situation, he was also a little disappointed.
"Brother Trench, it seems that your golden castle will not be able to be built in a few years!"
Besides, the history of gold mining by mankind has been thousands of years, and the large amount of gold that has been mined has not disappeared out of thin air. As long as we go to a few more places, we can still buy it. Even if we don't have so much gold reserves at home, we can still buy it abroad!"
Ye Hao said.
He didn't think it was a problem that couldn't be solved.
After Zhou Baichuan heard the fat man's words, he was stunned for a moment and asked,
"Mr. Zhu, what did you just say? Ye Dong wants to build a golden castle?!"
"Yes, the main purpose for our Ye Dong to buy gold is to build a magnificent golden castle!"
The fat man said.
"Oh my God, Golden Castle?!"
Zhou Baichuan screamed again.
In his opinion, Ye Hao's idea is really incredible.
"Mr. Zhou, you don't need to make such a fuss, isn't it just to build a big mansion with gold, it's not a big deal!"
Ye Hao said.
"Uh......."
Zhou Baichuan's face turned red, and he couldn't speak again.
"Mr. Zhou, when will the 40 tons of gold you said be delivered?"
Ye Hao asked again.
"Ahem, cough, the 2 tons of gold of our Dongjin Group are in the warehouse, and you can pick up the goods at any time. The remaining 38 tonnes of gold belonged to gold mining companies from other provinces, and it would take some time to get there. However, as long as you pay for the goods, you should be able to get the goods within two or three days!"
Zhou Baichuan said truthfully.
"Okay, let's go and see the gold in your company's inventory first! If it's convenient, I'll ship those 2 tons of gold away today!"
Ye Hao got up and stood up.
"Oh, good, good!"
Zhou Baichuan hurriedly stood up as well.
He took Ye Hao and the fat man out of the conference room and walked out of the building.
"Huh, Mr. Zhou, isn't your vault under this building, why are you taking us outside?"
Ye Hao asked.
"Ahem, don't hide it from Ye Dong, since the last time the underground vault of this building was robbed, that vault has been blocked, and no one is allowed to enter or leave. Recently, the newly mined gold from our mine has been stored in the mine's vault, not here!"
Zhou Baichuan explained.
"And you're going to take us to the gold mines?"
Ye Hao said.
"Yes!"
Zhou Baichuan nodded.
After the fat man heard Zhou Baichuan's words, he was a little excited.
"Brother Trench, I'm so old, I haven't visited a gold mine yet. When we go to pick up the goods this time, let Mr. Zhou take us to visit the gold mine by the way!"
"Hehe, I also have this intention! I just don't know, can Mr. Zhou agree!"
Ye Hao said with a smile.
He knew that the gold mine was a very important place, and it was very well guarded, and it was generally not allowed for outsiders to visit casually.
"No problem! If someone else makes this request, I will definitely not agree, but if Ye Dong wants to visit, I am always welcome!"
Zhou Baichuan agreed.
Ye Hao is the largest customer of their Dongjin Group, and he has to buy 40 tons of gold at a time, if such a big customer is not qualified to visit the gold mine, then who is still qualified?
Zhou Baichuan asked the staff to prepare two special off-road vehicles, and he accompanied Ye Hao and the fat man to sit in one car, and then let the accompanying staff sit in another car.
Dongjin Group's mine is in the mountainous area more than 100 kilometers away from Donghai City, where the road conditions are not very good, and the mountains are high and the roads are dangerous, so you must take this special off-road vehicle.
Two hours later, the two SUVs drove into a majestic mountain range.
The area of this mountain range is large, with rolling mountains as far as the eye can see. If there is no one to lead the way, it is easy to get lost in the mountains.
The road conditions were not bad at the beginning, but as Ye Hao and the others went deeper and deeper into the hinterland of the mountain range, the road conditions became worse and worse.
The original flat asphalt road has disappeared, and the rugged mountain road ahead is all potholed gravel road. There are also no road signs along the way, and not even any other vehicles are in sight. If it weren't for the car driving all the way forward, Ye Hao would never have thought that this was a road to a gold mine.
The fat man began to mumble a little when he saw that the surroundings were getting more and more desolate, the road conditions were getting worse and worse, and that there were no other vehicles to be seen along the way.
"Mr. Zhou, is this the right way?
The fat man couldn't help but ask.
"Mr. Zhu, don't worry, I often come to this gold mine, and I won't go the wrong way!"
Zhou Baichuan said with a smile.
"How long will it take to get there?"
The fat man asked again.
"It's going to take two or three hours! As you can see, the road ahead is in very bad condition, and the car can't drive fast. ”
Zhou Baichuan Road.
"Wocao, it will take two or three hours?!"
The fat man was depressed.
He had been jolting in the car for almost three hours, and he didn't expect that there were still two or three hours ahead!
Ye Hao was relatively calm, and had been chatting with Zhou Baichuan with a smile and talking about some topics related to gold mines.
Zhou Baichuan has been dealing with gold mines all his life, and he has a lot of knowledge in this area, and he has always answered Ye Hao's questions.
The fat man, though he was also interested in those topics, began to rumble with hunger after sitting in the car for too long.
"Brother Hao, are you hungry? I'm so hungry that I can't straighten my back!"
The fat man complained.
"I'm not hungry, what's the matter, you haven't eaten enough in the morning?"
Ye Hao said.
"I ate a lot in the morning, but the bumps along the way were so bad that I used up all the things in my stomach!"
The fat man said with a bitter face.
After hearing this, Zhou Baichuan was a little embarrassed.
He temporarily decided to bring Ye Hao and them to visit the gold mine, so he didn't prepare any food in advance, only prepared some water in the car.
"Mr. Zhu, if you hold on, it's almost there!"
Zhou Baichuan comforted.
"Don't comfort me! Didn't you just say that there are still two or three hours ahead of you? Do you have anything to eat in the car? Let me fill my stomach first!"
The fat man is really hungry and can't stand it.
In this world, the most unbearable thing for fat people is to starve.
"Ahem, I'm so sorry, I came out in a hurry and forgot to prepare!"
Zhou Baichuan was very embarrassed.
"Ahh
The fat man cried out.
