286. Field investigation of iron ore
"Where is the most minerals in Bunia?" Hearing this question, Chebi was directly stunned.
But he quickly replied, "It used to be a smelter for the Soviets, but they have already finished mining it, but I know that there is a mountain a few dozen kilometers north of Bunia, which the Soviets visited twenty years ago, and there is a lot of iron ore there, but then with the collapse of the former Soviet Union, the matter is gone." Chebi said with a serious face.
Immediately, he looked mysterious, "Huaxialong, not many people know about this matter, so we have to hurry up." ”
Hearing that there were not many people who knew about this, Yang Tianlong couldn't help but feel a little surprised, he hadn't spoken yet, Chebi spoke again, "Their survey book is still in the government archives, you can take it out and take a look, but it's in Russian." ”
"Can you really take it out?" Yang Tianlong couldn't help but ask.
Chebi nodded, "I'm Mayor Mare, of course I'm in charge." ”
"Then you can bring your men now, I have someone here who can understand Russian. Yang Tianlong was naturally referring to Vasily.
"Okay, I'll give them a call. With that, Chebi took out his phone and called the people in the archives.
"Huaxia Dragon, they'll be there in twenty minutes. Chebi said with a serious face.
......
After the people in the archives took out the iron ore map that the Soviets had surveyed, Vasily also hurriedly looked at it, and after he read it for a long time, he couldn't help but take this information to Yang Tianlong.
"Boss, there is indeed a large amount of iron ore buried in the place called Endor, which is estimated to be about 1.5 billion tons, but the burial depth there is relatively deep, generally below 200 meters, so it is also difficult to mine. This is one of the reasons why we Russians found this iron ore but did not mine it. ”
Yang Tianlong didn't know Russian, but the numbers were universal, Vasily said as he pointed to the numbers.
"Well, let's go and see. Although the Soviets had already surveyed clearly, Yang Tianlong felt that he still needed a scientific investigation.
The system can detect metal ores, and when he gets to Endor, he wakes up the system and lets it see if there is any ore there.
Chebi nodded, and Vasily hurried the Wrangler over.
After driving for more than an hour, I finally came to this place called Endor, which is an empty field. On the map, Ndo is much closer to South Sudan and Uganda, only 200 kilometers from the South Sudanese border and 60 kilometers from Uganda.
Except for dozens of low-rise shacks, it's a desolate place.
"Boss, according to the latitude and longitude marking, this iron ore mine is at our feet. Looking at the archives and then at the theodolite on his watch, Vasily said with a serious face.
"I'll see. After speaking, Yang Tianlong squatted down, took out the Gurkha saber, and gently picked up a piece of dirt with this sharp blade.
"The ore is buried so deep that you can't see it when you look at the soil. Chebi shook his head slightly, "We can look at the deep-rooted plants nearby, and we can only see if we look at these deep-rooted plants." With that, Chebi looked around the empty field.
"Hey, Huaxia Dragon, there's a fig over there. Soon, Chebi was as surprised as if he had discovered a new continent.
"Figs?" Yang Tianlong and Vasily couldn't help frowning, thinking to themselves, does this Chebi like to eat figs?
Seeing the blank looks on the faces of the two, Chebi smiled embarrassedly, "The root system of figs is very deep, and it can easily reach hundreds of meters, so we can observe figs is the best reference." ”
Yang Tianlong handed over the Gurkha saber, and Chebi, who took the Gurkha saber, stabbed at the root of the fig, and soon the base of the fig was exposed to the palm-sized bark.
"Huaxia Dragon, you see, the bark is a little brown, and the trunk is also a little. Chebi said excitedly, "Iron is originally a brown ore, so the results of this investigation are exactly the same as those of the Soviets." ”
Vasily couldn't help but nod, but he couldn't help asking, "Mr. Chebi, you seem to be very knowledgeable about ores." ”
Chebi smiled, "I studied geology in college. ”
It suddenly dawned on me, no wonder this guy looked like an expert in front of them, and he had studied geology before.
Yang Tianlong did not speak, but woke up the system in the depths of his mind.
"System, the ground here is said to be rich in iron ore, do you have a probe?"
"I'll try. After the system finished speaking, I saw that a compass suddenly appeared in Yang Tianlong's mind, and under the interference of powerful geomagnetism, this compass kept shifting.
"That's right, there's iron ore down there. The system replied very seriously, "And judging from the strength of the geomagnetic field, there are still a lot of iron ore reserves here." ”
As a result, the Endor region is indeed rich in iron ore.
"Chebi, what's the price here?" Yang Tianlong couldn't help but ask.
Chebi thought for a moment, "Huaxia Long, I won't tell you, we can quote to you, but the mining approval here is only qualified by the province." ”
"Is it convenient over there in the province?"
Chebi shook his head, "It's a little difficult. ”
"Does it matter?"
Cheby thought for a moment, and he told Yang Tianlong that he had to give it a try.
"If we can, let's sign the contract as soon as possible. Yang Tianlong looked at Chebi and said with a serious face.
Chebi nodded, and he also told Yang Tianlong that he was going to go to Jisangani, the provincial center, tomorrow.
After leaving Ndo, the trio returned to Bunia in the afternoon.
The archives were still with Yang Tianlong, and at Wilmots's hotel, he asked his wife to help make several copies.
"Boss, my old lads are here in the evening. Vasily said with a serious face.
"The flight that arrived at seven o'clock?" Yang Tianlong couldn't help but squint.
Vasily nodded, "That's right. ”
"Okay, I'll talk to Mr. Wilmots in the evening, and ask him to keep a few more rooms, and you can also call Sman and Elbuck over, and we will meet together in the evening to talk about how to get to Tutan. ”
Vasily nodded, "Okay, I'll contact them now." ”
......
In the evening, beef and ham, cheese and a roast lamb were prepared for the old hairy men who came from afar.
Mr. Clare also said that he must attend the dinner in the evening.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, except for the 23 mercenaries, the rest of the personnel were all there, including Liu Zhengyang and Doke.
