282, Great Rift Valley Airport
Ethiopia did soon start studying Liu Dapao's plan.
The next day, Liu Dapao received the reply.
"His village chief, we absolutely have no problem with your plan. But how much contract fee are you going to pay for us?"
Meles is straightforward to ask for money.
Liu Dapao smiled and said, "Haha, I contracted this Great Rift Valley, and you are also beneficiaries. What money do I pay? If I don't ask you, it's good to ask the Sultan, do I need money if I rent some of their Sultan Port?"
Meles hurriedly said: "Your Excellency the Village Chief, it's okay if you don't give me money. Then you have to guarantee that you will bring us a lot of employment opportunities and provide us with agricultural technology, industrial technology, and commercial layout."
Meles has a big appetite.
Liu Dapao smiled and said, "There is no problem with this. If Ethiopia develops, there will naturally be a lot of room for cooperation. Ethiopia is a country with a large population and a large land area. It should first develop agricultural production. I have a lot of excellent seeds and high-quality fertilizers. If you need it, I can sell it to you to ensure that your food can quickly increase the yield. There is also animal husbandry, and I can also get various livestock. If you want to develop economic forestry, I can also help you, and even if you want to develop characteristic planting, there is no problem."
"That's great. Our country has too many populations and extremely unbalanced development. In this way, the village chief will definitely have a way to take our national economy to a higher level. Well, let's discuss the development of agriculture, animal husbandry, forestry and other industries now."
Meles immediately became happy.
Liu Dapao thought to himself, why don’t you, a plateau country, grow potatoes in large quantities?
He said, "I think that your agriculture should grow potatoes in large quantities. Under the characteristics of plateau agriculture, potatoes are easy to grow, the yield will not be small, and the dependence on the land is not very strong. I can provide you with 10 million tons of potato seeds, and provide you with 10 million tons of fertilizer. At that time, you Ethiopians will have potatoes to eat. Eating this thing is also good for your body and can make your body stronger. In addition, stewed meat is also a good seasoning. Potato roast beef and mutton tastes very good. In addition, it can also be processed into various foods and has a good storage advantage. What do you think, Your Excellency the President?"
Liu Dapao is trying to make Ethiopia its own test field.
Half of the land area of millions of square kilometers is used to grow potatoes, which is a terrifying data.
Of course, Liu Dapao will not be cheap for the price of potato seeds. System potatoes, are they ordinary potatoes?
Meles nodded slightly and said, "We also grow potatoes, but this is not our traditional agriculture. It may be difficult to promote it. Village Chief, is there anything else?"
Liu Dapao said: "Your Excellency President, you are wrong. Potatoes are most suitable for planting in the plateau area of Ethiopia. The climate here is also suitable for planting potatoes. The key is to choose the right seeds and fertilize them reasonably. This thing can also be made into starch, potato chips and other derivative products, and it will definitely be fine to export them at that time. Moreover, potatoes can also be used to breed livestock. With its multi-starch attributes, livestock like to eat them. Of course, if you want to plant other things, I have a way, and I can get all the grains and grains."
After hearing what Liu Dapao said, Meles smiled and said, "It seems that the village chief likes potatoes. However, we are a major agricultural country and cannot bet on a crop. I can open up a potato planting area. As long as I plant it for a year, I will know its yield and value."
"Well, I suggest you do it next to the Great Rift Valley, so that my tourists will have to eat it in the future. Potatoes can be fried and burned. Then I will consume the potatoes you grow."
Liu Dapao said with a smile.
Meles said: "No problem. Village Chief, agriculture needs to be diversified. I hope you can provide a variety of seeds such as corn, wheat, rice, tea, etc."
After the conversation with Meles, Liu Dapao quickly obtained approval from the Ethiopian section of the Great Rift Valley in East Africa. The contract period was 10 years. However, if the contract period ended and Ethiopia wanted to take it back, it would have to acquire the corresponding infrastructure construction and everything valuable at the price given by Liu Dapao.
Liu Dapao would not make wedding dresses for others. If you continue to invest so much, you can’t make others lose money in vain, right?
After taking over the Rift Valley, Liu Dapao immediately launched his plan.
First of all, infrastructure construction must be carried out. First, a small airport can be built, which can transport various materials by air transport, so that the construction of the Great Rift Valley will be faster.
It just so happens that the New Territories Airport is just built and put into use. This international airport is invested and built by the New Territories Village itself. Of course, it is not just for the New Territories itself. Hong Kong will use this international airport. Of course, Kai Tak Airport still needs to be used, but it is estimated that many people will choose to land flights at the New Territories Airport in the future, because this airport is the largest civil airport in the world.
It covers an area of 2.5 million square meters, has a total of 15 runways and a capacity of more than 1 million aircraft.
The total investment amount exceeded HK$200 billion!
So, Liu Dapao immediately asked Li Sen to send an expert team to him to design the Rift Valley Airport.
However, in terms of labor, Liu Dapao was planning to hire local Ethiopians. The labor force here is so cheap, it is useless. If you give me 30 yuan a day, they will probably be euthanized.
Soon, three airport construction experts came from Xiangjiang.
They knew Liu Dapao, but Liu Dapao did not know them. One was named Liu Jian, the other was named He Jian, and the other was named Zhang Jian. This name is really strange and has something to do with.
It seems that they are born to do construction projects.
After inspecting the terrain around the Great Rift Valley, the location of the airport was initially determined in front of a lake in the Great Rift Valley. Although the area here is not large, it is only about 5,000 square meters, building a small civil airport is enough.
Then the drawing design was drawn, and the three of them continued to discuss and design, and then the finalization was finalized.
Liu Dapao has begun to recruit local workers and has started basic work at the Rift Valley Airport.
When he heard that there were jobs to be recruited here, many locals came immediately. Liu Dapao chose the strong and strong ones and signed labor contracts with them. At the daily wage of RMB 30 per day, they included food and accommodation, and hired them to work for the new airport.
Where to live, you can naturally set up a tent in the Great Rift Valley. In terms of eating, there are three meals a day, and there are meat.
These meats are naturally from animals in the Great Rift Valley. There are so many animals here that they can eat for these workers.
However, Ethiopians also believe in some sects, and some do not eat meat, and some pick it up to eat it.
But the basic work of the project is still done well. Ethiopians are still essentially different from traditional black Africans. Their ability to work is still worthy of appreciation.
In just one month, the basic work of the entire airport was completed by these black people.
At this time, the professional engineering team in Xiangjiang was in place, and the locals would definitely not be able to do the technical work.
Chapter completed!
