Chapter 2478

Tian Yeyou said this, how could Roger and Tan Juren not understand what he meant. As long as the Mining Department is willing to provide technical support, it will not be difficult for the Star Island Colony to independently develop mining, and both parties must reach this kind of cooperation.

Naturally, the relationship cannot go around the key figure Tian Yeyou.

As for the expected benefits that this cooperation can bring to the Star Island Colony, Tian Yeyou also explained to the two of them readily.

He took the current island of Sumatra as an example. In addition to being rich in oil and gas resources, this island also contains coal, tin, aluminum, gold, silver, copper, iron and other minerals. It can be said that the mineral deposits needed to develop basic industries are large.

Some can be found here.

Of course, not all mineral deposits are as easy to develop as the Dumai Oilfield. A considerable part of the mineral deposits are actually located in inland areas, and some of the mineral deposits are buried extremely deep underground. The development cost and technical difficulty will be very high. Moreover, it needs to be mined.

These mineral deposits will inevitably have to be negotiated with the local Aceh country, and there will be a lot of diplomatic troubles to deal with.

However, the jurisdiction of the Sing Tao Colonial District is not limited to Sumatra. The Malay Peninsula, the western end of Kalimantan Island, and Java Island in the south can all be regarded as its sphere of influence. In recent years, there has been a trend of continuous expansion outwards.

Even the coast of the Bay of Bengal to the west of the Strait of Malacca can be roughly included in this range in the future.

Based on this calculation, the mineral deposits that can be developed in the Xingdao Colonial Area in the future are quite abundant. In the future, it is not impossible to build a coal-iron composite industry in the area and achieve preliminary industrialization in the area. At that stage, the Xingdao Colonial Area will

The degree of dependence on China will be greatly reduced, and Luo Jie and Tan Juren will also have greater space to display their abilities.

However, Luo Tan and Luo Tan were not dazzled by the news. They knew that Tian Yeyou would take the initiative to propose these plans and must have some agenda.

Roger took the initiative and asked: "Old Tian, ​​open the skylight and speak frankly. What conditions do you want us to provide?"

"Happy!" Tian Yeyou said: "First of all, the South China Sea Development Foundation will participate in the development of these mineral deposits in the future."

Tian Yeyou is one of the investors of the foundation. The foundation participates in development and management and gets a share of dividends. Naturally, he can also get a legal income from it. Although the proportion of personal income he can get will be smaller, but the water will flow steadily, it will not be too popular.

It's ugly, and the executive committee won't give him a hard time for it.

Tian Yeyou didn't need to say this too clearly. Luo Jie naturally understood his purpose and nodded immediately to express his approval of this condition.

Tian Yeyou continued: "Also, my eldest son is currently serving in Da Nang. I want to transfer him to Xingdao. Lao Luo, can you help take care of him?"

Roger smiled and said: "Is it a civilian or a combat unit?"

"civilian."

Roger responded: "If you want to move up, you have to join the combat unit. Only in this way can you accumulate military merit."

Tian Yeyou said: "How can there be any chance of meritorious service in Da Nang? If you want to get military merit now, you can only go to the border."

Roger asked: "Then why don't you think of a way to transfer to the north? There are opportunities to fight there every year, and the rise is quick."

Tian Yeyou shook his head and said: "My son has never been out of Hainan Island before graduating from Luhuitou Army Academy. I'm afraid that he won't be able to adapt to the climate in the north, so it would be better to stay in the south and develop. In the next few years, I will spend my time here.

If you have more, you can take care of him a little."

Roger nodded slightly and said: "Since he graduated from the Army Academy, his qualifications should be good. Later I will send an official letter to Da Nang and ask him to come over. He will stay in the staff for a while and then let him lead the troops after he gets used to it.

What do you think?"

Tian Yeyoudao: "You are an expert in this area, so of course it will be based on your arrangements."

After a few simple conversations, the two of them had finalized the career plans for the Tian family's children. Such life plans paved by their fathers are not uncommon among the second generation.

For the second generation of time travellers, going into business and joining the military are the two most common development routes. Business is undoubtedly the least difficult. Even if their parents have no ability, they have accumulated a lot of money through the time traveler dividends over the past 20 years.

The wealth is also extremely considerable, and there is no pressure to provide some capital for business. If you have some contacts in the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Transportation and other agencies, you can get twice the result with half the effort and get on the road easily. As long as you win a certain area or a certain kind of

With the franchise rights of products, from now on, you can basically enjoy the life of a rich man with no worries about food and clothing.

Joining the army is regarded by many time-travelers as a shortcut for future generations to enter the official career. Their children can enter the most advanced military academy in Haihan when they reach adulthood, and enjoy benefits that even naturalized officers may not be eligible for.

Educational resources, after graduation, you have obtained the rank of second lieutenant, and your starting point is much higher than that of ordinary people. If you are willing to serve in the frontline combat troops on the border, it is only a matter of time before you accumulate military merit.

Of course, you can't just go to some troops if you want to. If no one takes care of them, you may not be able to get promotion opportunities as expected. That's why Tian Yeyou will take advantage of the current opportunity to offer his son's future arrangements to Roger in exchange.

come out.

Roger is the supreme commander of the Star Island Colonial Zone, and because it is located on the border of the Haihan Kingdom, he has great authority. He can decide on the appointment arrangements and promotions of his officers. He only needs to report to the Ministry of National Defense. Requests from other places

If you come in person, there will generally be no obstacles.

For Roger, arranging a position for Tian Yeyou's son in his own combat staff is just a piece of cake. Of course, how to provide opportunities for meritorious service and awards in the future will probably require Roger to put some thought into making arrangements.

Just fine.

There were only two conditions proposed by Tian Yeyou, and Roger breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. He originally thought that Tian Yeyou would put forward more demands in terms of profit sharing from future mineral development, and was even worried that it would affect the Xingdao Colony.

The benefits that can be obtained, but the conditions proposed by the other party are not excessive. As for arranging for his son to take a job under his command, that is even simpler.

"Old Tian, ​​based on the conditions you have proposed, any overseas colonial area should be happy to cooperate with you. I am very curious as to why you chose my place."

After discussing the terms of cooperation, Roger still couldn't resolve his doubts, so he simply asked Tian Yeyou directly.

Tian Yeyou responded to this question very frankly: "Other overseas colonial areas are either rich in products or have a good trade environment, and their level of development is higher than yours. According to my observation, this is because the Executive Committee has

The island has relatively low attention and few resources invested, so I think there will be more room for development on your side."

"That's it?" Roger never expected that Tian Yeyou's reason would be like this, and he couldn't help but feel dumbfounded.
Chapter completed!
