Wage City is very rich in mineral resources, but the local government has no exploration statistics at all, not even a rough data report. The truly complete exploration data has never been provided to Wage Municipal Government by Wage Mining, but the leader of the working group
Sima Zhi now got one.
Compared with the rough exploration data of this area by the New Alliance scientific expedition team, there is no doubt that Wage Mining has more comprehensive data.
The total area of Wage State District is about 50,000 square kilometers, one-third of which is the Gobi Desert. The Desert Gobi extends into the national park in the northwest, and the national park area accounts for about a quarter of the state area.
one.
In the state area of 50,000 square kilometers, the main mineral resources currently mined are copper ore and aluminum ore. Many high-grade ores are directly exported. Later, a pit-head power station was built here, and rough processing, smelting, and export were also carried out locally.
Some refined copper and aluminum ingots.
Huazhenxing certainly knows how important strategic resources copper and aluminum are and indispensable basic materials for establishing a modern industrial system. Without them, not even a single wire can be produced.
There are also large-scale talc mines in Wagebang District, mainly serpentine, which is also an important industrial raw material and is rare in other parts of the Black Wasteland. Wage Mining was mined for a period of time, but later due to economic reasons
Production has been suspended and the original mine site has been temporarily sealed.
There are also coal mines and iron mines here. The coal mine is located near the edge of the national park and in the hilly areas adjacent to the mountains. Wage Mining has specially built a pit-head power plant with a total power of 150,000 kilowatts. After the power plant was completed and generated electricity, they
I started with simple rough processing and refining of copper and aluminum ingots.
Speaking of power supply, Wage City also has a 50,000-kilowatt heavy oil power plant. The 50,000-kilowatt heavy oil power plant supplies the electricity needs of one million citizens in the entire Wage City; and the 150,000-kilowatt Kengkou here
The power plant is specifically designed to meet Wage Mining's own production needs, and there is no grid connection between the two.
As for the iron ore, it is located farther west, at the foot of the rolling mountains to the west, and has very rich reserves. However, Wage Mining has not mined it, mainly because its value is not great.
The quality of the iron ore here is higher than most of the iron ores in Dongguo, but it is still lagging behind several famous iron ore producing areas in the world. There is little local demand for it. If it is used for export, it will
The poor infrastructure here, including mining and transportation costs, makes it uncompetitive in the international market.
It is not possible to mine wherever there is a mine, especially modern large-scale mining, which is a typical capital and labor-intensive heavy industry. It must pay attention to the most appropriate economic scale and is restricted by many conditions.
The coal here is only suitable for pit-head power generation, because the production of Wage Mining requires electricity. The current main industries of Wage Mining are copper, aluminum ore and copper and aluminum ingots. The total annual export volume is about 200 million Romanian yuan.
.
The two hundred million yuan is just the number reported by Wage Mining to the Wage Municipal Government. This figure is used to pay resource taxes every year, but in fact it is far more.
According to the internal materials obtained by Sima Zhi, its output is equivalent to the price of similar products in the international market, and the total export volume should be around 500 million Romanian yuan. Wage Mining has concealed 60% of the mining volume. The local authorities of Wage have never grasped this situation, let alone
Don't mention anyone taking care of it.
During the mining process of copper mines, there are also associated gold and silver mines. The quantity of these products is not large, but the cumulative amount is actually quite considerable.
In addition, there are many other mineral deposits within the territory of Wage City, many of which are valuable for mining in the eyes of Sima Zhi, such as tungsten and manganese. In the early years, someone organized a comprehensive exploration, and now most
Detailed information is in the hands of Wage Mining.
However, Wage Mining currently only mines three products: coal, copper, and aluminum. Among them, coal only meets the needs of its own pit-head power plants, while copper and aluminum are all exported, and the production scale is very limited.
This is not because they don’t want to exploit other mineral deposits, but from a profit perspective, the existing production scale and production method are the most economical. If you want to open a mine, you need qualified labor. They have hired nearly 20,000 local workers, which has already been
This is the limit, and special training is required.
This is a limitation of population size and education level. It is impossible for Wage Mining to invest resources in this area and can only use existing resources. From an infrastructure perspective, without the transportation guarantee of railways and ports, it will not be possible to mine more ore.
Going out, there is no local processing capacity, let alone digestion.
Therefore, under the current conditions, concentrating resources to exploit the most profitable copper and aluminum ores, according to the current production scale, is already the peak of the benefit curve. As for the mining rights of all minerals in the state, they can only be regarded as reserve reserves.
The response is the asset valuation on the financial statements.
There is still oil in the uninhabited Wage Desert. When the oil was first discovered, the Yimailei Group was ecstatic for a time. However, after many cost calculations, it was decided not to exploit it for the time being and could only use it as a reserve.
The reason is also very simple. Not far to the north of Kilili Country is the largest oil-producing area in the world. The crude oil there is not only of high quality but also has extremely low mining costs. It has already had the most mature industrial scale.
Not far from the sea of Kilili Country, there is one of the busiest waterways in the world. Large oil tankers pass by every day. It is very convenient to import crude oil and petroleum products. Why did the Port of Africa first build heavy oil power generation to solve the power supply gap?
Station? Because it is indeed convenient and cheap to import heavy oil for power generation.
If everything were to be started from scratch, building a new oil field in the Wage Desert would be a huge upfront investment that would require profits over many years to amortize the cost.
The comprehensive cost of transporting the crude oil extracted from here to the nearest terminal is much higher than the CIF price of crude oil imported from several northern oil-producing countries. In the final analysis, the infrastructure here is too backward. Just one step behind.
Falling behind step by step.
In Wali Xi's office, Sima Zhi not only obtained detailed information about Wage Mining, Hua Zhenxing, who appeared as Wali Xi, also obtained another exploration report from Sima Zhi, about the northern part of Feso Port.
Distribution of mineral resources in wasteland areas.
In the early years, Mo Shangtong led members of the Straw Shoes Gang to explore in that area. Later, the New Alliance organized a special geological exploration expedition team, of which Sima Zhui was a member.
The first phase of the scientific expedition team's work has been completed. Since the New Alliance immediately launched an action to liberate Wage City, the detailed summary of information has not been finalized until now. Hua Zhenxing got it as soon as possible.
Hua Zhenxing has purchased more than 100,000 square kilometers of wasteland and mountains north of Fesuo Port through Huanxiang Industrial. It is also the territory where he will build Zhenxing State in the future, so he will send such a scientific expedition team.
There are also various mineable mineral deposits in that area, including copper ore, aluminum ore, non-ferrous metal ore, coal mine, iron ore and oil. The specific reserves and quality need to be further explored.
The distribution and types of mineral resources in the future Zhenxing State are highly similar to the current Wage City, but it is still a wasteland, and at least Wage Mining already exists here.
Therefore, a comprehensive understanding and mastery of the situation of Wage Mining is not only a guarantee for the future industrial development of Kilili Country, but also accumulation of experience and training of talents for the plan of building Zhenxing State.
Why did Sima Zhi end up in Warich's office? Because the working group he led has fully settled in Wage Mining, and his dedicated office is diagonally opposite Warich's office, making it easier to communicate at any time if there are any problems.
This was a decision made by Warich himself, rather than an arrangement made by Hua Zhenxing impersonating Warich's identity. Of course, it seemed impossible for Warich not to make this decision, because this was Feng Zibin's suggestion.
So where is Wallich now? He is on the construction site, and he also has an Eastern Mandarin name, Wagliang.
Are there any surnames in Dongguo with the surname Wa? After all, this is the country of Jili. The New Alliance has recently implemented a resident registration system. Locals can use a Dongguo character as their surname. Huazhenxing arranged a new name for Wallisi.
Because of his identity, his surname is Wa.
When Vaglian appeared on the construction site, many workers had great sympathy for him. Some people directly asked: "Poor guy, how much money did you lose?"
You can often see Luoba faces with lighter skin on construction sites, but most of them are management or technical staff, and at the end they are security team captains. Some of them are sent from Luobazhou, and some are sent from Luobazhou.
They are hired locally.
There are residents of various colors and ethnicities in Jili State. Otherwise, where would Sima Zhi have collected the "Three Lakes and Twelve Hairpins" from in the first place?
According to incomplete statistics, there are millions of Chinese people of Eastern descent living in the Black Wasteland.
These people are either here for business or construction, and many more are immigrants or descendants of immigrants from various eras for various reasons. Many of them do not have local nationality, but once they get married and start a business, they will adapt to the situation.
Once you know the living environment and lifestyle here, it’s not easy to leave.
As for the immigrants or survivors of Luoba origin, the number here is even greater. Except for a small number of stationed personnel, most of them are leftovers from the colonial era.
When their ancestors came to such a dangerous and remote place, except for a few noble leaders, most of the rest were exiled criminals, bandits who committed murder and swindled goods, civilian slaves who could not survive in their place of origin, etc.
After they came here, they changed their identities and assumed the appearance of the superior civilized people of the suzerain country... These are all things of the past, but many things still remain today.
The first-line miners in Wage Mining are almost all local aboriginals, and faces like Wallis are rarely seen. So everyone thinks according to the inertial thinking that this poor guy must owe a lot of money to the gang, so he was sent to
Come here to work as a miner.
As for the outside world, which has changed and the new alliance has eradicated all the gangs, how could something like this still happen? Their minds still didn't turn around immediately.
Unfortunately, Wallich didn't understand what the workers were asking, so it was impossible to answer or explain. Wallich spoke several languages. His native language was Spanish, and he could also speak English and Chinese.
, I can even speak a few simple sentences in Banya and Guoya, but I can’t understand the local dialect.
Fortunately, the foreman who led their team of workers could speak a few simple words in English, and at least he could communicate with Wallich, otherwise the job would have been impossible.
Wallich's arrival was like a white crow mixed into a group of black crows, making everyone very excited and even surprised. Although the language communication was not smooth, Wallish could also detect that the workers had a "original" feeling.
People like you are just like us." Seeing him seemed to bring back some self-esteem.
The co-workers often find troubles to bully him for fun. Seeing their happy faces, Wallis can actually feel that these people are very envious of him. The reason why they like to bully him is partly due to this reason. Human nature is so real.
So complicated!
One time, his co-workers went too far in bullying him and robbed him of his mobile phone. Finally, he received criticism and education from the work committee member sent by the New Alliance, and the mine also cooperated with the working group to punish them.
Wallich came to work as a miner and didn't bring anything else. Even the clothes were prepared by Feng Zibin. He only kept a mobile phone. Because the headquarters might contact him if something happened, so he had the mobile phone to deal with at any time.
The situation is that the miners around me don’t understand Lanxi anyway.
Wallich was not wearing makeup, but no one here knew him. Even if a company executive happened to pass by and glance at him, he would be completely unrecognizable with his dirty body and face, and his messy hair and beard.
In the first few days after arriving at the construction site, his only entertainment in his free time was to swipe his mobile phone. The co-workers were very envious of this, and some couldn't stand it. Why was he the only one who could swipe his mobile phone? That's why they took the phone away.
In fact, even if you take away his mobile phone, it seems to be of no use. If you want to read the news, you must at least be literate? Even if it is a lot of audio and video content, you have to understand it.
Another function of Warisi's mobile phone is that he can report the situation to Feng Zibin at any time and make various suggestions...
In short, the most difficult first week was finally over. The thing that Wallis looked forward to the most was the arrival of the working group in Wage Mining. Working groups were set up in each mining area and specialized working committee members were assigned.
The New Alliance working group is investigating the working and living conditions of the miners and is preparing to establish various activity organizations. Considering many factors, Vaglian has actively signed up. This is at least good for his current situation, and he is also
You know, Lord Feng Zibin definitely wants him to do this.
A week later, Wallis finally saw Feng Zibin again, in his own office. He was quietly brought here in the middle of the night. Feng Zibin asked with a gentle smile: "Mr. Wa, you have called me several times this week."
I have been complaining every time since I called you, are you going to complain today too?"
Wallich held his cell phone this week and did not receive any calls from the headquarters. He once said that he could not make the decision on many things here, but there were many things that were completely decided by him. As the saying goes, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, as long as the things are completed
The production tasks of the Mailei Group do not cause trouble, so the headquarters is too lazy to care about what is happening here.
As for the subordinates here, they usually don’t call Wari Xi’s personal mobile phone. Wari Xi’s habit is to talk about work during working hours and at the work place. He has been very withdrawn in the six months since he came here. So he only calls Feng this week.
I called the number given by the guest, mainly with various complaints.
Wallich replied: "I am not complaining, I am stating the facts!"
Feng Zibin: "Let me sum it up for you. You first want to improve the food, and then you want to improve the accommodation and sanitary conditions. You also want to strengthen the education and management of workers and organize more leisure activities..."
Wallich: "Yes, I have been sleeping in a doghouse and eating pig food this week! Also, the construction site I am at is too dangerous and has many safety hazards. I'm afraid you haven't cured it yet.
My illness will kill me first!"
Feng Zibin: "The working group entrusted by Wage Municipal Government will conduct a major inspection of production safety and propose rectification suggestions. How about starting from the mining area where you work?"
Wallich: "Of course, as soon as possible!"
Feng Zibin: "Then you sign this letter of commitment and memorandum, as well as the several opinions you just mentioned. I have also compiled specific implementation measures. You can also sign. Your staff may not know
How to implement it, but each working group will assist."
Wallis took the two documents and read them carefully for a long time. His eye circles were a little red for no reason, and he signed his name with a long sigh. Feng Zibin took out a Five Qi Pill and said: "The treatment can start this time. It may take a while."
