Chapter 541
In this era, there are many coal mines in Guazhou, ranging from small mines with an annual production capacity of tens of thousands of tons to large mines with an annual production capacity of several million tons.

Ownership is also very messy, belonging to villages, townships, and counties.

However, large mines and good mines are still in the hands of governments at the municipal level and above. These enterprises are owned by Guazhou City, Huanghai City, Suzhou Province, Shanghai-listed companies, and Hong Kong-listed companies. It belongs to the central enterprise.

Among them, the coal enterprises affiliated to Suzhou Province have the most mines and the largest total output.

According to what they found out, the purpose of Suzhou Province's inspection of Guazhou's coalbed methane this time is very simple - can Guazhou's coalbed methane supply the entire Suzhou Province, at least Jiangzuo and Nanjiang?
Purely from the perspective of economic benefits, the West-East Gas Pipeline is a very uneconomical project.

The first and second lines of the West-to-East Gas Pipeline Project, including branch lines and overseas pipelines, have a length of nearly 3000 kilometers and a cumulative investment of nearly [-] billion.

It would be much simpler to switch to cost-effective coal-bed methane.

First of all, the gas sources are all in the country, and there will be no problem of being stuck in the neck.

Secondly, the transportation distance is short and the cost is lower.

Natural gas pipelines are more than just pipelines, and various compressors, valves, and instruments are also used.

When natural gas from Xinjiang and even foreign countries reaches users in the east, the cost has already increased many times.

Many people say that natural gas in the United States is cheaper than in China, and it is indeed cheaper. The difference in transportation costs alone is so much.

Third, reliability and security are higher.

A pipeline as long as [-] to [-] kilometers, not to mention how vulnerable it is during a war.

Even if there is no war, various natural disasters, and machine failures, the workload involved in ensuring the normal operation of the [-] kilometers of natural gas pipelines is too great.

It is different if the gas source is scattered in multiple coal mines. Even if one or two gas sources are knocked out during the war, or one or two pipelines are damaged, it will not lead to a gas stop across the board.

Fourth, the construction time is short, and the construction and operation costs are low.

The West-East Gas Pipeline Project was conceived in 1998, and its feasibility was demonstrated in 2000. The construction of the test section was officially started in 2002, and it was officially put into commercial operation before the last day of 2004.

In contrast, the Guazhou CBM pipeline took less than a year from the signing of the contract to the final commissioning.

The diameter of the West-East Gas Pipeline Project is 1016 mm, and the design pressure is 10 MPa. The X-70 steel pipes used are mainly imported, as are the compressors and valves.

Guazhou CBM pipelines mostly use cast iron pipes and PVC pipes.

The compressors and valves used are all domestically produced, even locally produced in Guazhou.

Fifth, all the generated GDP stays in the province.

The provincial inspection team visited the Shunhe Coal Mine and learned in detail the entire process of coalbed methane from mining to transportation.

Sending off the provincial inspection team, Yang Dongsheng sat in the car, closed his eyes and asked, "What coal mines are there in Guazhou in the province?"

"Pang Mine, Qi Mine, Zhang Mine..." Vice President Zhao counted one by one with his fingers, "However, they have several pairs of fat coal mines and main coking coal mines in Jin Province. There is one in Shanghai that produces 1/3 coking coal in the west of the lake The mine has just completed technical transformation a few years ago, with an annual production capacity of 120 million tons."

"The pair of mines should be supplied to the Shanghai Iron and Steel Plant, right? I'm afraid it won't be easy to get them. On the other hand, the iron, copper, and lead-zinc mines on Jiangzuo's side have been mined for so many years, so it's more likely!"

"I understand!"

Yang Dongsheng asked again, "What's going on in the ancient city?"

"The guy from the Gucheng Coal Industry Company, I heard that he's going to be transferred to the province!"

Taking the train back to Shanghai, Yang Dongsheng felt that he should buy a private jet, but considering that it is only the 90s now, the private jet is too conspicuous.

After returning to Shanghai, Director Li finished his report and suddenly remembered something. He took out an official letter from the file folder and handed it to Yang Dongsheng, "A few days ago, we received an official letter!"

Yang Dongsheng frowned when he took it over, "Rich List..."

"They want to know about your wealth and..."

"Funny, are they from the tax office? They want to know and I have to tell him?"

Yang Dongsheng has already realized what this is. Isn't this the pig killing list?
Yang Dongsheng was stupid to be on this list.

"Then I will reject him immediately."

"It's not as simple as just refusing!"

In his previous life, the guy who made the pig killing list also sent a similar letter to Mr. Ren, and Mr. Ren sent him a lawyer's letter backhandedly.

But it doesn't have any impact on this guy, he still makes his pig killing list, and it's getting bigger and bigger.

This guy has also jumped from a foreign native to a pivotal figure in the Chinese business world, a figure on the pig killing list, whoever he wants to meet.

Yang Dongsheng thought for a while and said, "Go find someone to check, does this guy have a work visa? Is his company registered with the industrial and commercial department, just to do such a thing? And his tax status, he paid in China. How many girlfriends... In short, even if he spits anywhere, I will sue him for polluting the environment and spreading the virus!"

This product also accounted for the atmosphere of worshiping foreigners and fawning on foreign countries in China in this era.

Director Li went out, and Vice President Wang came in to report his work progress in Shangdu.

After listening to Vice President Wang's report, Yang Dongsheng suddenly remembered something.

"Wang is always from Shangdu, right?"

"My hometown is in the Northeast. When the Shangdu Coal Mining Machinery Factory was established, my father came to Shangdu from the Northeast. I grew up in Shangdu."

"Mr. Wang, do you know where there is a large lake or reservoir not far from the urban area to the east of the commercial capital?"

The ecstasy array in Shangdu where Yang Dongsheng went to in his previous life was the most densely populated place in the entire Shangdu, with a lot of people. It should be the most prosperous area in Shangdu. Unfortunately, he didn't know the exact location.

Buying a piece of land near there at this time can make a lot of money.

Vice President Wang thought for a while and said, "The reservoirs in Shangdu are all in the south, and there seems to be no reservoirs in the east. Why do you have to look for them in the east?"

"The closest city to the Shangdu is Bianliang in the east. The distance between the two cities is only [-] to [-] kilometers. The merchants have to develop and form a megacity. Combination of Liang and Liang. Moreover, Shangdu will go to the Loess Plateau to the west, so it can only develop to the east.”

While the two were talking, Director Li hurried in and whispered something in Yang Dongsheng's ear.

Yang Dongsheng's expression changed immediately.
