I build a red alert base in the Golden Triangle

: Huge income!

Wang Yao calmly greeted everyone: “The dishes are all here, let’s eat first.”

“Manager Zhang, come and try Jingdong’s special delicacies.” Wang Yao picked up the chopsticks and said to Zhang Shaoqian with a smile.

After the host Wang Yao moved his chopsticks, everyone began to taste Jingdong’s delicacies.

Due to geographical reasons, the food in Jingdong is not much different from the food in Yunnan Province of Longguo. However, if you break down the ethnic groups, you can also find some Shan and Wa specialties. However, as a mountainous ethnic group, the ingredients are not abundant.

But with the cooking techniques of chefs, these simple ingredients commonly found in the mountains can also develop attractive features.

Zhang Shaoqian also smiled and talked about delicious food with Wang Yao. The two of them laughed and chatted while eating.

Although the legion provided the iron ore vein exploration report and ore grade information, he was still a little worried and prepared to ask the group to send several ore experts.

Wang Yao is not afraid that they will not take the bait.

He had previously asked his staff to check. Currently, in the international market, the price of raw iron ore with more than 50% quality is US$100 per ton, which is about 700 dragon yuan, while the price of concentrated iron ore with 61% quality is US$123 per ton. tons, which is about 900 dragon yuan.

Longguo imports hundreds of millions of tons of iron ore from abroad every year, most of which are iron ore with a quality of 43%-50%, and only a small part is rich iron ore.

And you also have to bear huge shipping costs.

Now there is so much rich iron ore in the Golden Triangle area just around the corner. Building a railway can transport it directly to various steel companies in Yunnan Province and even the Panzhihua Iron and Steel Group. Even if it is transported by heavy trucks, it is much cheaper than shipping by sea. Too much.

They have no reason to refuse.

Wang Yao sells 2 million tons of rough iron ore and 800,000 tons of refined iron ore to Longguo every month, with a guaranteed income of 2.1 billion dragon yuan.

This income is nothing to the red alert system, but for Eastern Shan State with a population of just over one million, it has been able to greatly stimulate the local economy and improve the previous drug industry, electronic fraud industry, and gambling industry. , The pathological economic system brought about by the astringent industry.

This monthly iron ore trade of NT$2.1 billion can drive the development of the entire Eastern Shan State region.

As long as it can be maintained, the annual trade volume will be 25.2 billion dragon yuan, which is equivalent to 3.6 billion U.S. dollars, which has even exceeded the annual fiscal revenue of the neighboring country of Laos.

Myanmar’s fiscal revenue last year was 7.179 billion kyats, which was 24.8 billion kyats when converted into Chinese dollars and 3.4 billion when converted into U.S. dollars.

In other words, relying on the income from exporting iron ore, the financial income of Wang Yao’s ruling area can be comparable to that of Myanmar!

After the welcome banquet, Wang Yao left on the grounds that he was busy with the war. Before leaving, he ordered Duan Tianming to take them to the hotel to rest, and then asked Duan Tianming to arrange their next trip.

After Zhang Shaoqian and others returned to the hotel where they were accommodated.

Liu Xiao took the initiative and said: “I made an appointment with Zhang Feng and the others to interview the rescued Chinese people from the Long Kingdom.”

Liu Zhenguo, who was an attaché, also said: “I will also go to the Chinese camp in Longguo to have a look.”

The camp where the rescued Longguo Chinese are located is located at the airport, and the airport is now under military control, with legion troops stationed, as well as take-off and landing fighter jets. Liu Zhenguo used this reason to enter the airport with Liu Xiao for close-range military operations. observe.

“Well, then you should be careful.” Zhang Shaoqian sent everyone away.

There are legion soldiers responsible for their safety outside the hotel. The person in charge is Major Guan Chang from the legion. Just talk to him and arrangements can be made.

Zhang Shaoqian watched from the bedside as Liu Xiao and Liu Zhenguo got into Guan Chang’s military vehicle and drove out of the hotel courtyard. He took out a mobile phone and dialed his superior’s number.

On the phone, he reported in detail his contact with Wang Yao and his request for iron ore trade.

The superior on the phone was also stunned when he heard Zhang Shaoqian say that the other party had discovered a large-scale iron mine and a super-large iron mine in eastern Shan State. He couldn’t believe it.

After confirming that the other party could transport iron ore to the border port for trade, it said that it could send people to set up a trading point in Bianluo Town for receiving and temporarily stacking iron ore.

As long as the other party can deliver the iron ore to the border port, even if it does not exceed two million tons per month, Longguo will purchase it at the market price.

After all, this is a rich ore with more than 50% quality, and even more than 61% of fine ore. It is transported from the border to Panzhihua Iron and Steel Group by heavy trucks, leaving several million in freight charges every month.

These iron ores are slightly refined to become refined iron, which can save a lot of money when used for steelmaking.

In the next few days, Zhang Shaoqian and his party visited various places in Jingdong to see the situation of various industries under the rule of the Legion, especially the business situation.

Eastern Shan State is rich in various fruits, such as pineapples, mangoes, tomatoes, potatoes, cauliflower, tea, etc., and trade with Long Kingdom is also one of the important sources of income for local farmers.

There are also large quantities of valuable wood.

With the protection of virgin forests in the Dragon Kingdom, many valuable timbers are listed as prohibited from logging.

Many timber merchants from the Dragon Kingdom have gone south to Southeast Asia. Whether they obtain logging licenses from various governments, cooperate with local warlords and military leaders to cut down timber, or even secretly cut down timber and transport it to the Dragon Kingdom, they can earn a lot of money. Little money.

Now that the warlords in Eastern Shan State have been cleared out by the army, the commercial projects that were originally cooperating with the warlords have also temporarily stalled.

As Zhang Shaoqian’s private commercial activities investigation team went deep into Jingdong, cooperation on these commercial projects was reopened.

It’s just that the former warlords and local bosses have become the current legion, and management has become stricter. You must obtain a license from the legion to continue commercial activities.

In addition to these commercial project partners becoming legions, the investigation team led by Zhang Shaoqian also signed many new 2.5 cooperation projects.

For example, the Legion issued a letter of intent to purchase from Hualian, mainly for some high-yielding hybrid rice seeds suitable for the southern tropical climate, agricultural fertilizers, and some small agricultural machinery suitable for mountain farming.

Most of these cooperation projects are carried out with the army, and some are carried out with local Chinese businessmen.

In the past, the local Chinese could only survive by being subordinate to other warlords and doing business humbly.

Now that the legion has occupied eastern Shan State, they have transformed into a class second only to the direct descendants of the legion, and their social status has been comprehensively improved. The local clans and tribes that used to look down on them have also moved closer to the Chinese for protection.

After the status of the Chinese rose, most of them went to apply for civil servants in the new government or start their own businesses.
