The first year of the galaxy, September 11.

Li Qingye went all the way to the west, inspected the 8 industrial areas of the Numidia branch, and then turned south and entered the Chad branch.

After more than half a month, he has an intuitive understanding of the Numidia branch and the Chad branch.

For example, at this time, the headquarters of the Chad branch where Li Qingye settled - N'Djamena City.

A huge airship logistics center has been established here, which is one of the industries of the Ceylon Ocean Transport Group.

Kent, the manager in charge of the Chade branch? Alpha, a tall black man, was briefing Li Qingye on some of the situation of Chad's branch.

"This logistics hub is currently the largest in the entire Central Africa region and an important channel for us to radiate our influence to the surrounding region."

"I've heard that there have been local armed attacks on airships in the landing phase?" Li Qingye calmly looked at the transport airship that was descending and rising in the sky.

Alpha's expression was a little solemn: "Yes, it is mainly some local forces that do not know how to lift, under the instigation of European and American forces, trying to use the mantis arm as a car, and we have dispatched the Aerospace Fleet to completely clear these obstacles." ”

"Well, there's no need to be too polite with them." Li Qingye didn't care too much about the lives of the locals.

If you don't be ruthless, those people will gain an inch in the future, and they still think that the Homo sapiens company is easy to bully.

He very much agrees with Alpha's way of dealing with it, only by using the most aggressive means of revenge can he kill a hundred people, so that when the bull ghosts and snake gods in those places do things in the future, they will weigh in advance whether they can withstand the retaliation of the Homo sapiens company.

"Through several killings, there is no objection to our cooperation plan in Central Africa, and we have also explored and planned for surface bonanzas in various places."

Li Qingye glanced at the holographic geological exploration map in Alpha's hand, which was covered with dense mineral symbols.

Especially in the inland areas of Africa, there are many rich ores on the surface, of which there are no less than 11 large iron ores, with reserves of more than 27.3 billion tons, in addition to bauxite, coal mines, copper mines, lead-zinc mines, tin ores, phosphate ores and so on.

The reason why there is such a rich surface bonanza is related to the social environment of this place.

After all, this area was formerly a colony of the Europa, and although it became independent after World War II, most of the area is still an economic colony.

Coupled with the turmoil in these places every three days, there is simply no stable social environment to develop the mining industry.

After all, the mining enterprises are not stupid, although the mineral resources here are abundant, but the infrastructure is very backward, even there are few railways, to exploit the inland mineral resources, but also to invest in the construction of transportation facilities, this is simply a sinkhole.

Not to mention the unstable social environment.

Even France, which has worked hard in Africa, has only developed a part of the coastal plains with convenient transportation, and it is powerless to deal with the interior.

Similar to iron ore, a base metal, European and American companies have the western iron ore of the Kangaroo Country and the Huangshui River Valley of the Redwood Federation, so why bother to mine in the interior of Africa.

It is precisely because of the low cost performance that the surface bonanza in the interior of Africa is still unexplored.

Unless it is a precious metal mine and a gem mine, the local forces have no interest in mining it at all.

With the hard power of Homo sapiens, the Char branch has picked up a large amount of surface bonanza in the interior of Africa.

In fact, most of the local forces in the interior of Africa welcome Homo sapiens to invest in mining, and as long as Homo sapiens doesn't do anything else, everyone can still be good friends.

This is mainly due to the fact that the prices of Homo sapiens are relatively fair, and the gold dollar is also very strong.

For example, the city of N'Djamena at this time was not only a logistics center, but also a trade center in central Africa.

The gold dollars obtained after selling the mine must be consumed.

Otherwise, where did the mountain of containers at N'Djamena Airport come from, it is not that the demand in central Africa is very strong.

A large number of steel bars, cement, hardware, furniture, electrical appliances, electronic products, medical consumables, grains and food products produced by Homo sapiens are dumped on a large scale throughout Africa.

Cheap and high-quality Homo sapiens products, with their fast and safe transportation channels, have made other foreign companies trading in Africa complain, and they have found that this normal trade competition cannot play Homo sapiens at all.

In the case of steel, Homo sapiens produces rebar that retails for 240 gold yuan per tonne in Africa, including home delivery.

At present, the value of the U.S. knife against the gold dollar has depreciated by about 50%, and 240 gold dollars is about equivalent to 720 U.S. dollars.

The problem is that in the current global steel industry, European and American steel enterprises (including free associations) account for only about 15.6% of the world's total output.

The proportion of steel enterprises in the Far East with the largest production capacity is about 42%, and the steel production capacity of Homo sapiens accounts for about 37%.

However, most of the Far Eastern steel enterprises now belong to the processing type of supplied materials, and their iron ore source is Homo sapiens, which can basically be regarded as an extension of the Homo sapiens company system.

For every 1 ton of steel produced, Far East steel enterprises can probably obtain a rated profit of 5~10 gold yuan, as well as a quota of 0.5 tons of iron ore for their own use.

In other words, if Far Eastern Steel produces 100 million tons of crude steel or customized steel for Homo sapiens, it can obtain a purchase quota of 50 million tons of iron ore with a grade of not less than 50%, and within this quota, the price of iron ore is basically the same as that of Homo sapiens.

In this case, how could Far Eastern Steel give up cooperation with Homo sapiens.

You must know that with a rated profit of 5~10 gold yuan per ton of steel, this is a drought and flood guarantee, and it is not affected by market fluctuations.

Otherwise, what will the Far East do to maintain investment and development in Central Asia, it is not cheap steel, plus cheap oil, gas and grain in Lucia, and the mineral resources of Central Asia itself.

In addition, Far Eastern companies are also struggling to survive in markets in West Asia, Latin America and Africa.

It is one of the few forces that can barely compete with Homo sapiens.

Of course, this is just that Homo sapiens is not fully exerting its strength.

In addition, forces in Asia, Africa and Latin America are worried that Homo sapiens will do things, and they intend to keep the Far East enterprises, and even take the initiative to help, just to avoid the dominance of Homo sapiens.

As for European and American companies, it is also in this way that they barely survive.

However, how long they can support it depends on whether they can withstand this low profit, or even lose money for a long time.

Anyway, Li Qingye is not optimistic about the hard support of European and American companies in Asia, Africa and Latin America, and this kind of behavior that violates the laws of the market, even if there is a subsidy from the American and Europa consortiums, is still not a long-term solution for private enterprises.

Unless Homo sapiens also suddenly blew itself up, Europe and the United States will be able to recover, otherwise it will be a vicious circle.

And will Homo sapiens blow itself up?

Apparently impossible.

Li Qingye has made a lot of preparations, even if he is assassinated now, the Homo sapiens company can still survive.

Of course, the possibility of his assassination is very small.

He operates within the company, surrounded by a special security team, on the surface is a 500-person special security battalion, and secretly there are at least 4 security regiments that can be quickly supported at any time.

In addition, there are maritime escort fleets, air and space escort fleets, satellite defense and surveillance systems in the vicinity.

Under this level of security, it is difficult for conventional forces to successfully assassinate Li Qingye.
