Monster Factory - 1219
The nearest diamond mine is more than two hundred kilometers away.
There was once bordering Nsukka District, and it was also the source of the coincidence between Ye Qing and General Mopu.
Because in that piece of diamond mine, a rare giant diamond weighing more than 300 pieces was once mined. Later, the diamond was bought by Ye Qing and used to recruit the legendary hero Dianjing.
In order to compete for the ownership of the diamond mine, General Mopu and the ruler of the Nsukka District almost had their brains.
it’s good now.
One third of the entire Nicaya state belongs to General Mopu.
Three Land Rover, a bulletproof version of Mercedes-Benz G65, galloping side by side on the concrete road that can accommodate two cars in parallel.
The diamond mine was one of General Mopp’s important financial sources, and it was also the only way to another Sunka district under his rule.
Therefore, General Mopu deliberately spent a lot of money to specially build a cement road that can reach the standard of [Village to Village] in the backward provinces of China.
General Mopu happily sat in the back seat of the Mercedes-Benz G65 with Ye Qing.
Along the way, from time to time, you will encounter local people with baskets on their heads.
Even if these people didn’t know General Mopu’s motorcade, no one would dare to stay in front of these four steel beasts. Where the convoy passed, these people quickly retreated to the side of the road.
The few people who recognized the motorcade of General Mopp danced and yelled there.
“Well~ it has changed a lot more than when I came here for the first time.” Ye Qing looked at the scenery outside the car window with interest and passed by a village behind, giving a positive evaluation.
“In addition to economic changes, the mental outlook of your local people has also changed considerably.”
Ye Qing pointed at the local pedestrians outside the car window, “When I came here for the first time, these people living on the brown soil have numbness and ignorance in their eyes.”
“Now they have expectations in their eyes, and I noticed that many people have fruits and some handicrafts in their baskets, which shows that they are living well.”
General Mopp nodded excitedly.
The affirmation from Ye Qing made him even more excited than getting the location name of the US president.
“Mr. Ye, these people you see are small vendors who go to the city to do business. They transport fruits and handicrafts to the city for sale, and the employees in your factory are also the main consumers in it.”
Ye Qing smiled and said, “This shows that the most basic commercial economy prototype has emerged here.”
“Your governance ability made me admire me. By all accounts, you are considered one of the backs of Behemoth Industry. With your economy going up, our employees can live more comfortably here.”
General Mopu straightened up immediately, patted his horse and said, “These are all photos of you, Mr. Ye.”
“Without you, we would not have the economic results of today in the West. You are the sun of our West.”
Ye Qing laughed, just as the convoy came to the corner of the intersection and the speed of the car slowed down.
A few local women carrying baskets stood on the side of the road. They contained a pile of yellow-orange-orange fruits that looked like papaya, which looked very delicious.
Ye Qing motioned to stop, and lowered half of the thick bulletproof glass.
General Mopu gave one of the women a banknote with a wink, and the latter happily wrapped a pile of fruit with leaves.
…
At around five o’clock in the afternoon, the convoy arrived at the edge of the Nsukka District.
“Mr. Ye, have you seen the forest at the end of the fork?”
“We drilled right on the edge of the forest.”
“Have anyone been sent to explore in the forest beside the mine?” Ye Qing got off the car and moved his hands and feet. Now the convoy stopped at a three-way intersection, one leading to the edge of the forest, and the other leading to a town not far away.
The sun was slanted in the sky, golden brilliance hit the reddish-brown land under his feet, hitting the small town like a fortress in front, what Ye Qing saw before his eyes was full of exotic and wild style.
“I have sent people to explore, but there is no mining value in the forest. The residents who have lived here for generations have no history of picking up diamonds from the forest.” General Mopp spoke and waved, letting his confidant ride in another car. Buzz, go to the mine to prepare for reception.
“That’s a pity, the company is in urgent need of a huge amount of super high-quality rough diamonds. But the size of the diamond mine in front of me looks very ordinary.”
“Yes, Mr. Ye, this drill mine in Ensuka District is the smallest of the three mines.” General Mopu carefully followed Ye Qing. “However, this drill mine is easy to produce high-quality rough diamonds for you. Of those rough diamonds, 40% are produced in this mining area.”
When Ye Qing and General Mopu came to this mining area, the mining area was still in full swing.
General Mopu had already used his own guard in advance to replace the original guard team in the mining area. Standing on the observation deck overlooking the entire mining area, Ye Qing found that many of the workers working here had ropes tied to their arms in pairs.
General Mopu was afraid of Ye Qing’s misunderstanding, so he quickly explained that the workers who were tied to the ropes were all sentenced to labor camps without asking Ye Qing’s questions.
“Labor re-education?”
“Haha~ this method is good.” Ye Qing once again affirmed General Mopu’s governance plan.
However, the affirmation of the governance plan cannot conceal the reality that this mining area is extremely backward.
After overlooking the mining area, Ye Qing, accompanied by General Mopu, went deep into the mining area for inspection.
This drill mine is a typical surface mine, and the source of the original ore is a pale yellow bare soil mountain that lies in front of everyone.
More than a dozen excavators are constantly digging the ground that has been blasted into crushed earth. The excavator piled the ore soil aside, and dozens of laborers, shirtless and exposed to the sun for years, piled the ore soil into a trolley with a shovel.
These trolleys were pushed to the edge of a recyclable artificial ditch. In the artificial ditch, there were hundreds of arms tied with a rope, and their eyes were full of fear and painful labor.
These laborers only wore a piece of torn pants. They mechanically used a sieve to put piles of mineral soil into the water to wash the sieve.
The fine sand and soil are taken away by the water, and at the same time the water in the ditch is dyed into a thick khaki.
Gravel particles with a diameter of more than five millimeters were sifted out. On average, they can sift out a rice bowl of sand and several pieces of black gravel at a time.
The gravel mixed with gravel was sent to a long row of straw sheds not far away by another group of people.
There are dozens of workers sitting in the shed, their arms are not tied to the rope, their expressions are relaxed, and they are neatly dressed.
These are local workers hired by General Mopp to manually select rough diamonds from the gravel.
Ye Qing stood in front of the ditch with the earthy yellow water, bent over and grabbed a handful of gravel from the ground that had just been washed and sieved by the laborers.
The laborers who were working below were subconsciously afraid to retreat, and did not dare to lift their heads, for fear of offending the foreign young man who had a great background at first sight.
Ye Qing spread out the handful of gravel, aiming at the setting sun.
The gravel is now full of water, and these droplets of water envelop the gravel and some other mineral particles in the gravel.
After the setting sun shined, they immediately flashed a brilliant flash of shattering into countless flowers.
Ye Qing handed the gravel to the hand of the next master exquisite master, who grinds it with his fingers, and then throws it in the artificial ditch.
“Most of them are quartz, silicate, corundum, and hornblende.”
“Boss, dig this piece of drilled mine to a depth of several hundred meters, and it should reach the rock layer.”
Ye Qing nodded. Most of the gravel in that handful of sand just now were rock-associated minerals, and they were all common minerals with no mining value. Theoretically speaking, diamonds generally do not appear casually in this kind of soil.
If it appears, it probably means that there are rock bands under the earth mountain.
Ye Qing asked General Mopu to stop the excavators, and then came to the dirt mountain that had been split into a small part.
The earth mountain in front of you is about 30 meters high, the soil is compacted, and there are a lot of broken stones.
“Mr. Ye, the easiest thing to find diamonds in this drill mine is these broken stones. When the workers on the grass shed are screening the rubble, they will use a hammer to break the stones.”
“This smash, occasionally a diamond can be smashed.”
General Mopu introduced, and deducted a black stone the size of a matchbox from the soil.
It’s a coincidence that a stone that General Mopu deducted at random had a flash of light the size of a soybean in the corner.
General Mopu quickly shone into the sun, and it was a diamond.
