Chapter 1682 Mining well

Southwest of Salt Lake City, Oakle Mountains.

Here is the world's largest open-pit mine, Bingham Copper Mine. This mine was originally a small hill, but after a hundred years of digging, it has become a super pit more than 1,000 meters deep.

The copper mine was originally forty or fifty kilometers away from Salt Lake City. However, as the city continues to expand, the mining area is currently only five kilometers away from the edge of the city. You can get there with just one step at the accelerator.

When the flower planters lack copper, they lack copper shell bullets, but when other big gangsters use copper shell bullets, they have developed helpless alternatives such as copper clad steel and even painted steel, which leads to rabbit bullets being notoriously bad, and the probability of getting stuck is quite high.

When Xiao Yi reported that Zhou Qingfeng reached out to Utah, the rabbit elder in the real world called for the mining sub-base to be built in Salt Lake City.

Because the copper mine was too close to Salt Lake City, the workers in the mine took a car to the city to purchase. They ran to the supermarket with the pre-paid wages from the church, and everyone returned home with a full load.

"Go to the mine to have a look." Zhou Qingfeng asked. His car followed the miner who had finished purchasing to the mine. After more than ten minutes, he arrived at the edge of the huge mine. This was the largest hole that humans dug on the earth, no doubt about it.

There are rolling earth slopes on the edge of the mine, which are all accumulated by abandoned slag over the past century. Looking down from the edge of the mine, the huge pit with a diameter of more than 4,000 meters and a depth of more than 1,000 meters will make people amazed at the great power of human beings to transform the earth.

But if you think about it again, this is nothing great for the earth. It is better to have a volcanic eruption or tsunami without pain or itch.

The accompanying priest introduced to Zhou Qingfeng: "The giant mining forklift here can mine more than 50 tons of ore every time it is excavated, and the giant trucks that can carry more than 200 tons, and the work efficiency is very high."

The priest's proud tone and expression naturally boasted to Zhou Qingfeng about America's achievements in the mining industry. Zhou Qingfeng looked at the huge vehicles that were busy at the bottom of the mine and nodded slightly, "Your work is indeed amazing."

In order to make the Mormon Church work hard, Zhou Qingfeng praised it and even offered high prices for purchases of ore. The purpose is to make the fraternity people feel that mining is more profitable than other industries and increase their investment in the mining industry.

The copper content of crude ore produced by the mine is 0.6%. After crushing and water selection, it can be enriched to about 28%. These concentrate powders can be melted and electrolyzed to become high-purity copper ingots.

The "breaking" and "water selection" steps without any technical content are left in the wasteland and Zhou Qingfeng purchased concentrate powder to transport it away. This will allow the real-world Huajia copper mine industry to obtain cheap and sufficient raw materials and develop the entire industrial chain. He can also make a lot of money from it.

Mineral buses kept transporting miners from the city, and the people who had just paid for the purchase seemed extremely happy. They couldn't wait to take off their clothes that were covered with torn patches for a year or two, and put on new clothes they had just bought.

The income of miners is very good. Zhou Qingfeng keenly discovered that these people soon emerged from their deep-rooted consumption habits after they had money to buy some goods that were not so urgently needed. For example..., it is not a erotic doll, it is a drink.

"Those drinks were made by our church. We bought a set of beverage production and canning equipment from the Legion and opened a production line. We can produce 50,000 bottles of carbonated beverages every day.

The beverage factory we opened solved the work problems of more than 200 people, and made profits on the day of construction, and the orders were scheduled to next month. The church felt that such small businesses had little investment, low technology, and fast results, so they decided to increase support for this area."

The accompanying priest laughed and Zhou Qingfeng could only enjoy it. When he was talking about free trade with the Iron Brothers, the other party wanted to make some simple equipment to do light industry to solve the difficult employment problems. For this reason, he also asked Zhou Qingfeng what factory to open?

Zhou Qingfeng didn't understand this? He could only go back and ask the real world think tanks that have factories that can meet a large number of employment requirements without improving too much industrial capacity. The think tank recommended him a simple food processing industry, and opening a beverage factory is one of them.

A simple beverage factory does not require much investment. It can be done by township enterprises, and the equipment is even simpler. Anyway, ordinary food machinery factories can provide it. As long as there are orders for this kind of factory, the benefits are still very good.

The Mormon Church's beverage factory is a factory that they have officially established and successfully since the end of the world. They have made many similar efforts in the past, but they have never been able to solve the sales problem. Without Zhou Qingfeng's large-scale purchases, no one wants to dig out the minerals, so it is naturally difficult to drive consumption.

At present, all the equipment and materials of the beverage factory are provided by Zhou Qingfeng, including food additives including caramel and glass bottles for beverages. However, the Mormon Church is also in the process of import replacement. After all, the production of ordinary raw materials is not difficult.

In this case, you may have to import equipment from Zhou Qingfeng, such as producing glass bottles, or at least a glass factory. These equipment cannot be said to be without waste, but to find these possible broken equipment in the ruins of the city and then repair it, it is better to simply buy it directly from the Legion.

Although it is the most common "Cola" drink, miners still buy it in boxes and drink it happily. Everyone has had enough in the end of the world and is eager to feel the convenience and benefits of civilized society again. Therefore, even just a bottle of drink is enough to make them ecstatic.

More and more miners are coming back, and more and more people are cheering and drinking. Westerners have always liked to hold parties, and now everyone is shouting like a carnival. They simply decided to hold a barbecue conference at the entrance of the mine because...

A freezer truck transporting beef came over.

Americans love to eat meat. The animal husbandry in America was once very developed. The animal husbandry in Utah was once very good, but now it is difficult for everyone to eat a piece of meat. He died all the pigs, cows, and he was killed. Except for the Aurora Legion re-engaged the breeding industry, other places could only stare at me.

David Lawrence of the New York Brotherhood has always wanted to import a batch of breeding poultry and livestock from the Aurora Corps, but Zhou Qingfeng has been dragging it down and refused to give it. It was only when Rachel asked for it to give it a small amount. But it would take many years to develop into a large-scale breeding industry.

It will take several months for chickens and ducks to grow up. Cattle and sheep have to be calculated based on the "year" and expanding the population is not something that can be completed in a short time. People in North America want to eat meat..., so they still have to ask Zhou Qingfeng to buy it.

Flower growers in the real world have begun to import American beef, which is cheap and sufficient. If they don’t import, the United States is still unhappy. This is part of the trade balance. Zhou Qingfeng simply helped buy a batch from America to America, but Americans are still eating it.

What kind of mad cow disease is the problem that Americans are cheating on Americans.

However, Zhou Qingfeng was able to get beef, which was very important for enhancing the happiness of the North American people. The priest who was by the side was moved and burst into tears. He grabbed the back of his hand and kissed: "His saint, you are so important to us. You are really the gospel sent by God to save us."

The priest was really moved. Without Zhou Qingfeng, North America would not be able to obtain sufficient supplies, nor would it be possible to have an almost unlimited raw material market.
