Ye Qing was a little shocked by Zhu Longmei's sensitivity. In fact, the Huoshishan ore vein is the Kokang Gaogang ore vein, which is the same large-scale ore vein as the Baldwin Mine, Meidang Nickel Mine, Wangze Copper Mine, etc.
However, the Stilwell Highway and the Burma Highway were built on the edge of the Baldwin mining area, allowing these mineral deposits to be developed first.
The Huoshishan mining area has always been silent among the deep mountains and old forests of Guogan.
Moreover, because there are many drug lords in Kokang, it is easier to grow opium poppies to make contraband than to make money from mining, so no one takes this mine seriously.
Therefore, the chieftains and drug lords only developed some gold and silver mines, or used primitive methods to mine some iron ore and copper mines to create some cold weapons.
For Ye Qing, this part of the vein is actually virgin land.
Moreover, because Lincheng has been working tirelessly to develop Xiaomengla, opening ports and building roads, it is possible to exploit this mining area.
As long as Ye Qing has the ability to deal with the Kokang drug lord, even if he smuggles minerals openly, the Myanmar military government will not be able to control him...
Because this area is deep in the Golden Triangle, it is a no-no-no zone.
Being free from state supervision gives him more autonomy, but the dangers are also doubled.
Surrounded by drug lords, mountain soldiers, and bandits, there is no law in this chaotic world, only the law of the jungle and the victor is king.
Therefore, the top priority is not to build roads or prospect for mines first, but to form an army that is completely attentive to one's own orders, and then expand outward in the form of war to consolidate territory. Eventually, a small independent kingdom is formed, and then mining is started to make money...
Zhu Longmei saw this situation and wanted to invest with Ye Qing.
Although the investment is huge, according to the scale of this vein, various non-ferrous metal deposits are enough to be mined for hundreds of years.
The most important thing is that there is no shortage of buyers for these mineral deposits. Even if it is unrefined ore, there is still a demand for as much as there is in the country.
But this was Ye Qing's ultimate idea. He had never told anyone about it. How did Zhu Longmei know about it?
Zhu Longmei glanced at him with disdain: "You think you are the only one who is smart. There are many smart people in the world. It's just that they don't have background resources like you to use.
That's right, Huoshi Mountain is a no-care zone, and if you have a gun, you will be the grass-headed king.
However, if you want to mine here, it will be fine if you don't make money. Once you make money, not only the Kokang ministries will flock here, but even the government troops will regard this place as a target of plunder.
They don't mine or occupy land, but they kill people and steal wealth.
Moreover, the Huoshishan mining area is located deep in the mountains and old forests, far away from roads and without any traffic conditions. Before the construction of Xiaomengla, there was not even a dirt road open to traffic in Pengjiazhai.
Even if the ore is mined, it can only be carried out bit by bit by horse teams.
Another thing is sales. Nickel ore, iron ore, and lead-zinc ore are based on quantity. If there is no reliable sales, opening a mine in the Golden Triangle is a joke.
Invest huge sums of money to build roads, invest huge sums of money to build an army, open up China's checkpoints so that convoys can pass unimpeded, and find stable and long-term sales. These things are not difficult for you, but they are difficult for others. sky. "
Ye Qing looked at her dumbfounded.
Seeing his shocked look, Zhu Longmei smiled proudly: "In the early 1940s, some people mined silver mines in places such as the Salween River's Huangjiang Forest.
At the beginning of the 20th century, the British colonial authorities mined gold in places such as Fangmachang and Yangkang.
At present, the mining sites still controlled by various departments of the Kokang Army include the Dabaobao gold mine, the Fangmachang gold mine, the Shangdijaba gold mine, the Salween River motor boat gold panning and the traditional artificial gold panning spots on the riverside, and the fish pond gold mine.
It's just that due to traffic congestion, backward mining technology, and lack of systematic geological exploration, the foundation is unclear. It is all exploratory mining. What is mined is a mine, and what is not mined is a pit.
However, the prospectors brought by my grandma from Europe and the United States guessed that there was a large mineral vein in the mountainous area east of the Salween River, and that there must be rich gold deposits.
But Chen Juncai stayed in northern Myanmar, not looking for the Nanming treasures left by the Zhu dynasty.
It is the gold mining land left by the Zhu Dynasty. Even when Mang Bai betrayed the descendants of Nanming and Wu Sangui stayed in Yunnan, he was actually looking for this gold mining land.
Ye Qing looked at her deeply: "Master's wife asked European and American geologists to explore the mine."
"It's just a simple detection." Zhu Longmei nodded affirmatively: "There were many rebellions in Kokang District back then, and the European and American geologists invited by my grandma did not dare to stay in Kokang District for too long.
Later, the military government also heard the news, sent its troops into Lao Cai City, and sent out detectives to detect the area. Finally, it gave up because mining was not easy.
In recent years, Wu Rui has been vigorously developing Tachilei, which is actually coveting the Kokang mining area, but..."
She didn't say anything further, and Ye Qing also understood.
In recent years, war has continued in Kachin State. Wu Rui's mission is to stabilize the lifeline of the Burma Highway, but he is also powerless to deal with the mineral deposits in the Kokang District.
What he lacks most is sales.
The military government has a market, but Wu Rui is a wolf and certainly does not want to attract a tiger.
Especially the tiger of the military government, which eats people without distinction between friend and foe.
If the interests of the Kokang District are huge, the military government bosses will most likely kill Wu Rui and divide the interests.
This is the tragedy of the local army.
No matter what, he will not become one of his own in the eyes of the military government bosses.
Zhu Longmei was not tall enough, her feet were constantly treading water, and her calves were sore. She looked at Ye Qing and whispered: "Do me a favor."
"What help?"
"Turn around and let me hold your shoulders!" Zhu Longmei bit her lips and begged in a low voice.
The best way now is for Peng Guoguo to get her bra back or quickly return to the dressing room.
But now this dead girl was swimming around in the water, and she didn't know if she could find her. With Ye Qing right in front of her, she didn't dare to lie on the edge of the pool.
The best way now is to ask Ye Qing to turn around.
It's just that this bastard has long seen his embarrassment, but he took this moment to ask himself some secrets.
In fact, she didn't know what she was thinking. She could swim to the other side in one breath and go ashore directly into the locker room. Even if Ye Qing saw it, he could only see her naked back.
But deep down in my heart I don't want to leave.
Ye Qing did not refuse, jumped into the water and turned around.
Zhu Longmei swam over, hugged his neck with both hands, lay on his back, and leaned into his ear: "Why are you so hateful?"
Ye Qing's heart fluttered as the fragrant and soft body pressed against his back, especially the two balls of nephrite that gently rubbed against his back as Zhu Longmei's body swayed, making him take a breath involuntarily.
