Treasure hunt begins in England
Chapter 936 Plan
Chapter 936 Plan
"Yes, that's right, that's it—" the oil tycoon said in an excited tone after seeing Liang En's scepter sent back from Ireland urgently the night before.
"After this scepter disappeared, the kingdom has been looking for it, and even offered a high reward for it, but I really didn't expect this thing to reappear here."
Although Angola is a republic, it is well known that most of the countries south of the Sahara are countries established mechanically by European colonists, which are different from normal modern countries.
For example, the traditional long ball system in Africa.Chieftain system, and the highest-ranking chief is also called "earth king" locally, which means the ruler of the land.
The house where the earth king lives is called the "king's palace".At the same time, these earth kings are not just a symbol, but also have considerable power, deciding the big and small things within their jurisdiction.
In addition, any important actions of local officials need to be discussed with them, and at the same time, a part of the money needs to be allocated to them every month as a subsidy.
However, not all chiefs have such rights. To give the simplest example, outstanding people, including politicians, can be awarded the title of chief through donations or acceptance of commendations.
This type of chief is just a kind of honor, not hereditary, and often has no actual power, just like the noble title Liang En obtained from Cambodia before.
Now, the chief behind the scepter that Liang En and the others found is that kind of traditional chief with power, which is more in line with the appearance of the African chief in people's impression.
According to the survey, the local king has about 20 people and a land area of more than 200 square kilometers. He can be regarded as a powerful local king.
In addition, he is also an important influence on the people of his own nation in many countries, and he can be regarded as an important leader of those people.
But other than that, the situation in the whole area is very general. Although there are rivers passing by, the local area is actually relatively barren without an irrigation system. Except for a few villages near the river, animal husbandry is the main business.
What's worse is that after years of surveys, it can be determined that there are no valuable minerals in this area, no gold, no diamonds, no oil, only some very scattered coal mines with low reserves.
But from another perspective, they are also blessed. We all know that most of the wars in Africa are caused by resources. As long as a place has resources, those international capitals will smell it and create various disputes.
So this place also escaped a catastrophe because of its barrenness: no one would be interested in those cattle and sheep or coal mines with basically no industrial mining value, and naturally they would not provoke any war in such a place.
After two days of busy work in Paris, Liang En received an official invitation from the earth king, so he joined a 15-member white knight security team on the third day and flew to Angola.
Different from the previous team, except for the commander who is a retired Chinese soldier, all the security personnel of this team are Copts from Egypt.
As the force with the longest cooperation, the cooperation between the Copts and Liang En went very smoothly, which naturally included a large number of Copts who joined the White Knights Security Company.
It's just that the places Liang En went to were too humid and not suitable for Copts, so they didn't appear in the previous actions.
But the location of this operation is located in a relatively dry area slightly south of central Angola, so they, who are an important part of the White Knights, will naturally show their faces.
Because there was a whole team following them this time, Liang En and the others simply rented a private jet to the destination after completing the renewal process this time.
Also because it was a private jet and the flight was more than five hours, Liang En quickly discussed the next work with the two assistants who went to Angola with the plane after the plane entered a stable route.
Although in theory Liang En and the others returned the scepter this time, in fact, in addition to returning the scepter, taking care of the property in that place is also a very important thing.
Especially after carefully analyzing this industry, Liang En realized that this is likely to be a very important profit point in the future, and a good opportunity to open up the African market.
"—The core problem now is how to make the whole industry work." An assistant reported to Liang Enhui after reading the information in his hand.
"The project itself is not a big problem. We found a Chinese construction company through bidding. They have built a lot of infrastructure overseas, including several important hydropower stations in Africa. Therefore, it is very simple to build such a small hydropower station."
"But the question now is whether the hydropower station can be used enough after it is repaired. For example, there is no problem in irrigation and flood reduction now, especially after the surrounding plantations are reclaimed. The reservoir will play a big role."
"But power generation is a big problem. At least it is not clear who will use the electricity generated by this small hydropower station in the future, because the surrounding is a purely agricultural society." Another assistant said helplessly.
"I know that the farms we develop will inevitably use electricity, but the farms alone will definitely not be able to use up the electricity. At the same time, at the level of the entire hydropower plant, it is completely uneconomical to build high-voltage transmission lines to send electricity to other cities."
"Yes, this is indeed a problem, so I think the next thing we should do is to develop some manufacturing industries, and then promote the convenient use around." Liang En nodded in approval, and then said.
"I think this kind of need can be cultivated. Although it is said that high-voltage remote transmission of electricity is not possible, the surrounding areas of the transmission should be sufficient."
"Yes, that's true, but we need to invest more money and energy in the early stage." The two assistants discussed in a low voice. "And that requires stability on the ground."
"I don't think the problem should be big. At least the local situation seems unlikely to cause large-scale conflicts for a relatively long period of time. Therefore, it is still possible to cultivate an industrial stability in this place."
Liang En agreed with the analysis of the two assistants. At the same time, he also figured out what happened based on the information, and then simply pointed out a direction.
"We can start with the simplest manufacturing industry, such as simple mechanical processing or similar local supporting industries, and then gradually popularize the use of electricity to the local area."
"Of course I know it's a complicated thing to do, but I also believe we have the time and energy to get it right and make this place an important source of money for us."
Liang En has practiced this profit model more than once in other places. Although those experiences can only be used as a reference and cannot be copied, the successful cases undoubtedly greatly encouraged Liang En, allowing him to move forward .
Finally, after a five-hour flight, the plane landed smoothly at the airport in Luanda, the capital of Angola, and soon the quality off-road vehicle drove out of the airport, and then drove towards the south.
