Let’s look back at the situation and talk about it!

Since we want to build a stone carving machine, we also need a sand washing plant!" Yu Qingyang knew what Chen Xiang wanted to say, so he stopped him and said with a smile.

When it comes to sand, most people have a misunderstanding.

Sand and sand have the same pronunciation but different meanings.

The building material we use is sand, which has very low clay content and larger particles than sand.

The sand in the desert contains a lot of clay and has relatively fine particles, so it needs to be sieved and washed before it can be used.

If Yu Qingyang really said that, Chen Xiang wouldn't say anything.

It is so close to the desert that it is cheaper to dig and wash the sand yourself than to buy it from coastal cities.

As the director of the Procurement Department, Chen Xiang had learned about the building materials market in Ajigeria through friends before coming here.

After arriving at Geographic Glass, the capital of Ajigeria, the day before yesterday, we also went out to inspect the building materials market.

The biggest problem in aiding construction in Ajigeria is the supply of building materials.

In Ajigeria in 2000, even the capital Geographic Glass had few companies producing building materials.

Most building materials are imported.

It is now planned to build a stone carving machine factory and a sand washing plant.

I wonder if we will build a cement plant in the future?

That is not as simple as a stone carving machine factory or a sand washing plant.

It cannot be completed and put into production in a short period of time.

What Chen Xiang didn't know was that Yu Qingyang really planned to invest in building a medium-sized cement plant in Ajigeria.

As the political situation in Ajgeria stabilizes, the United States will lift economic sanctions on Ajgeria next year.

Ajigeria's economy will usher in a boom.

If you sell oil and minerals and make money easily, the next step is to build a large-scale construction project.

Engage in urban construction.

Think about the prosperous Gold Coast in Africa in later generations. Its prosperity is no less than that of international metropolises.

But now, it is not as good as third-tier cities in China.

What's this?

This is a business opportunity!

Covering a mountain and investing in the construction of a medium-sized cement plant is a hugely profitable thing.

As for whether Ajigiya will be in turmoil again in 10 years, Yu Qingyang can sell the cement plant before then.

Before the civil war in Ajigeria in 2011, the politics of Ajigeria was still very stable.

…

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Qiang came to the camp again.

Two black nurses came with him.

The white nurse uniform is in sharp contrast with the brown skin.

Very eye-catching.

What is more eye-catching is the figure of the two nurses.

It's really hot.

The nurse's uniform was very tight on her body.

It's as big as it should be, and it's as tall as it should be.

It's just that it's not thin where it should be.

The top and bottom are almost as thick.

Yu Qingyang felt that his arms were thicker than his own, almost as thick as his calves.

After some courtesy, Yu Qingyang handed the two nurses to Xia Xue.

Two nurses can speak English, and Xia Xue's English level is not bad either, having passed CET-8.

Communication is no problem.

He took Zhang Qiang to his office.

"Mr. Yu, I'm really sorry. As you know, in an Arab country like Algeria, it's really hard to find female nurses!

I managed to recruit these two from a foreign-funded hospital!" Zhang Qiang explained quickly as soon as he entered the door.

"It's okay, as long as the skills are good! It's not a beauty pageant for me to look for a nurse!" Yu Qingyang smiled and nodded to express his understanding.

"Mr. Yu, the stone carving machine, mixing station and other equipment you want have been shipped and shipped. It is estimated that it will arrive at the port of Ajigeria in a week."

"Well, please contact me later, I also need a set of sand washing equipment!

When will the cement arrive?”

"The cement is ready and can be delivered at any time!"

"How much does it cost to deliver the gravel and yellow sand?"

"The price of materials is not high, mainly because of the high shipping cost. If delivered, it costs eight dinars per side, which is equivalent to 50 yuan in RMB!"

"Yeah!" Yu Qingyang nodded and said nothing.

This price is too high!

It seems that we still have to rely on our own efforts.

This is not Zhang Qiang cheating on himself. After all, Yuanmu Company does not produce these building materials themselves. They are engaged in trading, so they can make a profit by selling them.

For building materials such as yellow sand and gravel, I guess they won't even make a profit on the price difference. They are just helping.

"If you urge me, the sand washing equipment will be delivered as soon as possible!"

"Okay! What else do you need?"

"Tomorrow I will send a hundred hammers, half hand hammers and half sledgehammers, and twenty sieves! We still need to send five more carts of water!"

"Okay, I'll make arrangements when I get back!" Zhang Qiang nodded and wrote down what Yu Qingyang wanted.

Zhang Qiang did not leave at night, but stayed in the camp for one night before leaving the next morning.

It takes six or seven hours to travel back to Geographic Glass. There are large areas of uninhabited land along the way, and it is too dangerous to travel at night.

Zhang Qiang's failure to go back does not affect the delivery of supplies here.

Directly call the people in Butitanic to purchase the things Yu Qingyang needs and send them over with water.

Yuanmu Company has clerks stationed in all major coastal cities in Ajigeria.

Zhang Qiang left early the next morning.

At noon, the water truck came with the supplies Yu Qingyang needed.

Fresh vegetables, rice, flour, hammer, and sieve were delivered together.

Yu Qingyang called Zhao Xinlei to his office.

"I asked yesterday. It costs fifty yuan per side to transport sand and gravel from Butitan!"

"So expensive?"

“The freight is expensive and the shipping distance is too far!

So, I decided to produce it ourselves!

However, the production equipment will take at least a week to arrive!

I purchased a batch of hammers!

You go back and recruit a group of Berbers and ask them to use hammers to smash the rocks into pebbles!"

"Use a hammer to smash the stone into pebbles?" Zhao Xinlei looked at Yu Qingyang in surprise, speechless at his whimsical idea.

"Haha! Feeling a little weird?

Let me tell you, in the past, when there were no stone engraving machines, people in the mountains used this method!

During the major water conservancy projects in the 1960s, it was not uncommon to use hand hammers to break stones into pebbles!" Yu Qingyang said with a smile.

"Mr. Yu, I've never heard of this!" Zhao Xinlei said with a wry smile.

"Let me calculate an account for you. Is it okay for a worker to smash one stone a day?

Do you think any Berbers would be willing to take care of food and accommodation for five hundred dirhams a day?"

"Someone must be doing it! They will probably rush to do it," Zhao Xinlei said without even thinking.

Now the family is busy for a day, traveling hundreds of kilometers back and forth, and in the end they can only get food and water equivalent to one thousand dirhams.
