This is equivalent to entrusting China to help the Kalapag Islands in infrastructure construction!
China is naturally the most willing to do such a job, and Qin Xiaotian was even happy when he heard this.
If you bring this achievement back, it will be much more than just completing the task of collecting debts. It can even be said that you have achieved a major political achievement.
Now China is full of excess infrastructure production capacity, and the world is full of people who need to help people build bridges and pave roads.
Once the other party has completed the bridge and road construction, the local resources will naturally become the interests of China.
This is like the reason why European and American powers enclose land in China at the beginning of the last century. It seems that they will build railways for you, but the natural resources within a few kilometers of the railway will also belong to others.
This is also the main reason why the European and American powers reacted so strongly to China's aggressive construction of railways and highways in Africa.
Because of these paths, the local governments will get closer and closer to the Chinese, and they will lose control of those countries.
Some people also say that Europe and the United States are so skilled and so rich, can they go to Africa to build railways?
Haha, if it were decades ago, there might be this possibility.
But now they can't even build their own bridge, so they go to help Africans build roads? They can't afford the hardship.
Now, the Kalapag Islands are willing to use the lease rights of several islands to let China help them carry out infrastructure for free. This is a big business that Qin Xiaotian would not do.
Don’t look at the first payment for free, such as helping to build roads, docks, or even airports, many of the work is donated to the people of Kalapag for free.
But what about your later maintenance?
For example, if a telecommunications base station is built on such an island, the lifespan of base station components is generally not long.
Other places may need to replace parts in three to five years, but here may need to be replaced one year. Isn’t it cost to replace parts?
Moreover, once the Chinese standard telecommunications equipment is used for the first time, then when the Chinese equipment is upgraded in the future, there is no free statement at that time.
So the first free transaction is actually not a big deal for China. You can make a lot of money by working together in the future.
Moreover, the Kalapag Islands are not the kind of place where there is no output and birds do not shit.
The output here is huge!
This boss Xiao is said to be doing island breeding here!
Not only do we raise cattle and sheep, but it is said that we also set up several sea ranches, and we even have to raise salmon.
If these resources are shipped back to China, they can be exchanged for a lot of money.
So if you calculate this way, it is absolutely cost-effective to help them do infrastructure.
Qin Xiaotian was happy, and Xiao Feng and Chen Yonglu were also very happy.
Because the Chinese construction team came in, it saved them a lot of trouble because they now hired hourly teams.
If Qin Xiaotian and the others send people here, it will be the national team, construction speed and standards, which are not comparable to these small construction teams.
The most important thing is that people don’t want money!
They also know that maintenance and upgrades in the later stage will cost money, but so what? A lot of money can be saved in the early stage, and once the economic chain of the Kalapag Islands starts to operate in the later stage.
Are you still afraid of losing money at that time?
So the two sides quickly finalized their intention to cooperate, and in front of the two, Qin Xiaotian called the country.
Some people in China who he contacted were excited when they heard that there was an archipelago here and needed them to do infrastructure.
Although Xiao Feng and the others don’t have to pay, the other party can apply for subsidies from China. Even if the subsidies are not provided in China, they can still get subsidies from China Petroleum.
So the construction party will definitely not suffer any losses, this is a win-win deal.
The next day, the other party sent several planning experts, all of whom were urgently deployed from South America.
At this time, Xiao Feng realized how deeply China penetrated the South American continent.
It turns out that we have always had construction teams in countries like Peru and Bolivia.
These construction teams are almost all closely related to the national team.
For example, some construction teams are under the railway construction, some are under the oil system, and some are under the telecommunications unit.
Anyway, they were sent to the South American continent under the name of building bridges and roads and building telecommunications base stations.
The representatives who came here this time belonged to the railway construction and oil system, and everyone was very concerned about the infrastructure construction of the Kalapag Islands.
It was even decided that they would donate a hospital, a school, a gymnasium to Meihua Island on the same day, and they didn't have to worry about the construction of other ports.
Just take the drawings and leave the rest to them.
Such a fanatical work attitude really surprised Xiao Feng and Chen Yonglu. Xiao Feng had heard of these construction teams in China and were crazy overseas.
Unexpectedly, he was so crazy.
But later, when he was entertaining the construction team for dinner, he understood why the other party was so excited.
They are forced to have feelings for each other!
The leader of the construction team in the railway construction field was a middle-aged man named Deng. After drinking a few glasses of wine, his eyes turned a little red.
"Brother, you don't know how depressed we are when working in Bolivia? That place was originally a plateau, and it was rainy and humid, so we were not very adaptable to the climate. I thought I could finish the work as soon as possible, but the local workers really left you speechless. Working for one day and two days, you often get paid today, but you won't see people tomorrow. A project, originally scheduled to be 60 days, can be done for 180 days... I'm so angry when working with them!"
"Hey, aren't we in Peru? Locals are lazy and greedy, and they often encounter bandits. If you don't pay, you won't let you start work. Some people even turn into guerrillas at night, specifically kidnapping our engineer, my grandma Caota."
Lao Chang, the captain of the construction team under the oil system, also complained.
They are all engineers from the country, and they have tasks, so they can only come here to work, but they are really about to explode when they work with those lazy people.
When they learned that there was actually a Chinese autonomous region and an island with 100% Chinese descent in Tongguo, they were excited when they wanted to develop it.
If this island is well built, it will be the southern gate of China to enter South America in the future.
With such a strategic fulcrum, they can attack and defend.
I was tired of working in South America, so I ran to the island to rest for a few days. No matter how bad it was, it was full of Chinese-speaking environments, which was better than living with those lazy people.
So both of these foremen are very enthusiastic about construction.
Qin Xiaotian also means that once he helps the Kalapag Islands complete infrastructure, then this is the gateway for China to enter and exit South America.
Xiao Feng and Chen Yonglu naturally understood this, which was equivalent to boarding the Chinese ship.
But beyond that, they have no better choice.
Everyone chatted very late that night, and the guests and guests had fun.
Xiao Feng returned to Lijia Island in the evening, but as soon as he returned, he was called by Antar and Yunduo.
"Mr. Xiao, today we made a major discovery while we were inspecting Nantai Island."
Antal spoke.
Xiao Feng was stunned: "What major discovery has it been?"
"We found a treasure on the island?"
"What treasure?"
"Please see."
Antar said, took out a camera and turned out the picture to show Xiao Feng.
Then he was stunned. It was a brick wall made of gold bricks, and there was a mountain of gold on the other side, all made of gold and silver jewelry.
This is simply the legendary treasure cave. Thinking about it, it is a famous treasure hiding place for pirates. Xiao Feng thought, this is not the place where pirates used to hide treasures, right?
But soon he threw this idea out of his mind and looked at the gold bricks stacked neatly and placed in hard shell storage boxes. This was not the purity that could be extracted in ancient times.
He suddenly heard Li Zhen told himself that the Li family had been planning a sneak attack recently. On the one hand, they wanted to find the place, and on the other hand, they wanted to take out the treasures they hid on the nearby island.
These should be treasures left by the Li family!
When Xiao Feng thought of this, he immediately sat upright: "What island did you say?"
"Nantai Island? Look, it's this island."
Yunduo took out a tablet computer and pulled it out for Xiao Feng.
The tablets are all photos of the Nantai Island they took. The area of this island is not very large, and it can reach a few square kilometers.
The island is full of steep hills and lush dense forests, so it is not suitable for island breeding based on the terrain.
Moreover, there are so many such islands in the Kalapag Islands.
Even according to international judgment, this cannot be regarded as an island at all, because according to international standards, if you want to become an island, the island must have enough freshwater resources.
Without tamsui, it is not worthy of being called an island, and it is not even qualified to be marked on the map.
And such small islands are in the southwest Pacific region, there are simply thousands.
Xiao Feng had never noticed this Nantai Island before, so he looked very unfamiliar at this time.
“Where is this island?”
"Just northeast of Lijia Island, because there is no tamsui, there is no one living on the island. And because of the terrain, it is not suitable for island breeding."
"Then how did you discover the treasures in this island?"
"We examined the other twenty islands today, and on the way back, we discovered this island. We thought it was very appropriate to set up a laboratory on this island. So we went to the island to take a look. Unexpectedly, we found a cave on the island. Walking along the cave, we discovered this treasure."
Yun Duo said to Xiao Feng as if he was seeking credit, and Xiao Feng nodded.
