Chapter 323

Yang Dongsheng stretched his head to look outside, it was almost dark.

"I'm a little tired today, go to bed early, and tomorrow we'll get up early and go to the ranch!" Yang Dongsheng didn't know what Edward Jones was planning, but he was the boss.

"Alright then!" Edward Jones resigned tactfully.

The next day Edward Jones rented a pickup truck and took Yang Dongsheng to a place not far from the town, "This is the ranch!"

Without his introduction, Yang Dongsheng also saw that the land was lit up!
This piece of land is really not small, covering twenty to thirty square kilometers.

Suddenly Edward Jones stopped the pickup truck, picked up a stone from the bucket of the pickup truck and threw it on the ground in front of him, only to see that the stone gradually sank, "There is quicksand here!"

Yang Dongsheng suddenly felt threatened!

After finishing the visit and returning to the room, Yang Dongsheng selected the floor.

The surface of this land is rich in iron, which is why the whole desert is red and one of the reasons why there are no plants growing here.

The iron element content in some areas is actually higher than that of some mines in Shunhe, which is really fucking enviable.

Yang Dongsheng moved most of the iron in the land back to his own mine, and based on years of farming experience, left the iron content for plant growth.

Before coming here, Yang Dongsheng checked here. Although it is a desert, Australia is surrounded by the sea. It is less than 1000 kilometers away from the north and south coastlines. In China, this is equivalent to the distance from the coastline of Hubei Province. Of course, it is more dry than Hubei Province. up.

据书上介绍，这里每年4月至11月是雨季，11月到第二年的4月是旱季，年平均降雨量为250至300毫米。

This amount of rainfall is not bad. The average annual rainfall in Jin Province in my country is only 300 millimeters, so wheat can be grown.

The key problem here is that water cannot be stored. The surface of the land is a thick layer of sand. The sand is so permeable that water evaporates easily, and the remaining water will seep under the sand.

The root system of ordinary grass is too shallow to reach water at all, so only some dwarf trees, or desert plants with super deep root systems can grow.

The second is that the silica content here is too high, lacks humus, and various trace elements for plant growth.

The solution is very simple. Although Yang Dongsheng cannot create humus, it is easy to adjust other trace elements.

Then reduce the silicon dioxide content in the soil and increase other substances so that the sand does not form large particles.

The binding force between sand particles is too small, which is the reason for the good water permeability of sand.

Yang Dongsheng made the entire pasture underground into the shape of a frying pan, with clay layers and stone layers forming multiple anti-seepage layers.

Looking further down, Yang Dongsheng finally found the treasure-coal.

Most of the ranch has coal underground. It is roughly estimated that there are hundreds of layers, including a huge coal layer with a thickness of more than 30 meters. The total thickness of the coal layer may reach more than 100 meters.

This is not the thickest. According to Yang Dongsheng's knowledge, the thickness of a single layer of coal seam in some Australian coal fields can reach more than 200 meters, and the total thickness can reach more than 700 meters.

The coal seam is as thick as a mile, and it makes people greedy just thinking about it.

It's a pity that, judging from the composition, these should be less metamorphic and cheaper lignite.

But enough to generate electricity!
Yang Dongsheng selected these coals and moved them to the country. It may be that the coals suddenly disappeared as soon as they moved out of the Australian border.

Looking back, the coal returned to its original place by itself.

How is this going?Is it impossible to cross national borders, or is it impossible to cross the sea?

In several basins along the southeastern coast of Australia, there are huge coal resources, and they are all open-pit mines, enough to be mined for hundreds of years, and it is impossible to develop the coal here.

If the coal cannot be moved to the country, it will be useless!
Yang Dongsheng could only continue to try to move the coal seam.

The distance between the east and west ends of Australia's territory is relatively large. Yang Dongsheng soon discovered that no matter which direction he moved the coal seam, the coal would disappear at a similar distance, regardless of any coastline or national border.

And once Yang Dongsheng was lazy and didn't select all the coal seams, he found that the distance he could move suddenly became longer.

Yang Dongsheng gradually understood that the minerals he mobilized in the past were at most tens of millions of tons, and the fewest were only tens of tons.

This time he had to mobilize more than one billion tons of coal resources at once, and he had to move thousands of kilometers, which was far beyond his ability.

After discovering these rules, Yang Dongsheng finally moved part of the lignite resources to his own mines and land in China.

After the inspection of the ranch, Yang Dongsheng took a small plane to Western Australia.

The plane landed on a section of road as usual, and a staff member of Alice Company was waiting for them in an off-road vehicle. This man was short and fat, and his clothes were already drenched with sweat.

Edward Jones introduced the two of them. This staff member was named James Whistler, an assistant recruited by Edward Jones himself.

The off-road vehicle quickly left the road and entered a wasteland. The sun was setting again, and the whole wasteland reflected by the blood-red sunset was extremely spectacular.

"Yang, what do you think of my work after these few days of investigation?" Edward Jones asked.

"I think you did a good job!" Yang Dongsheng continued to look at the scenery outside the window, and suddenly Yang Dongsheng's eyes froze.

"Can I make a suggestion?"

"Of course!"

"I think you should give the management some equity incentives, so that everyone will be more motivated!"

"How many points are you talking about?" Yang Dongsheng looked at Edward Jones.

"25%!" Edward Jones said.

"Stop the car there for a while!" Yang Dongsheng pointed forward.

The three got out of the car together, and Yang Dongsheng looked at James Whistler, "Is this decided by you together?"

"I don't know anything!" James Whistler waved his hands quickly.

Yang Dongsheng turned to Edward Jones, "So you want 25% of the shares yourself?"

"I deserve it, Yang! If it wasn't for me, how could you win such a good sapphire mine? And..." Edward Jones became more and more excited as he spoke.

"No more, I agree to your conditions!" Yang Dongsheng pointed at an open space in front of him, "As long as you can stand there for 3 minutes, the 25% of the shares will be yours!"

"That's what you said!" Although Edward Jones didn't understand Yang Dongsheng's intentions, he confidently stood there 10 meters away.

Almost 1 minute passed and nothing happened.

Should not be!

Yang Dongsheng took a step forward, and there was a click, and the ground suddenly cracked, and the place where Yang Dongsheng stepped on quickly spread towards the place where Edward Jones was standing.

"Pfft!" A puff of gas spewed out from Edward Jones' feet, his whole body suddenly sank, and his legs sunk in.
