God-level Miner

Chapter 205 Bald "big head"

The owner of the land, York, also came. It was obvious that the other party was very sincere. Wang Xudong happily shook hands with York. With the help of the translator, they exchanged a few words, and then boarded the helicopter and headed towards the destination.

From here to the destination, the distance is hundreds of kilometers, and the helicopter flew for more than an hour. The helicopter flew over the Western Australia mainland, and Wang Xudong once again experienced the vastness and desolation of the Western Australia mainland.

In China, where can I see such a scene? From a helicopter, looking around, there is a vast smokeless land, an endless desert, and it is basically difficult to see human habitation.

This boundless desert is different from other places, because the main color is red or brown red. Between red and brown red, there are occasional sparse shrubs dotted here and there. As for the pasture, Wang Xudong only saw a small pasture along the way. .

The ranch is next to a road, and there are only two or three scattered houses. Besides, there is basically no human habitation.

It was desolate enough.

More than an hour later, the helicopter arrived at the destination, and White said: "Mr. Wang, we have arrived at the destination, look."

Wang Xudong vaguely saw a boundary sign, and of course, he also saw a road, which seemed to be a good asphalt road. Wang Xudong thought in his heart that the traffic conditions here were not bad.

York suggested: "Gentlemen, should we take a helicopter to visit the land first, or go to the ranch to drink coffee and take a break."

Wang Xudong has read the information on this piece of land. It covers an area of ​​more than 500 square kilometers. Most of it is a desolate desert. There is only a small area suitable for the growth of pasture. There is a small pasture. The York family mainly operates on this piece of land. This ranch.

Although York did not say why he wanted to sell the land, but Wang Xudong could guess something. It is estimated that York is old and does not want to take care of the ranch. An old age.

Wang Xudong said: "It's still early, let's take a helicopter to visit the land first, and at noon, we will go to Mr. York's ranch as a guest."

York said straightforwardly: "No problem, then let's visit this land first."

The helicopter flew over this land, at a height of several hundred meters. Wang Xudong saw that this land was no different from other places, the same desolation and vastness, with red or brown deserts everywhere, sporadically growing some Shrubs, not even patches of woods.

Wang Xudong smiled and said, "Mr. York, your land is really desolate."

York argued: "My dear king, although this land is desolate, it is large enough. In addition, there is a small pasture. Generally speaking, it is not bad."

When he said this, York felt that he was a bit lacking in confidence. The biggest selling point of this piece of land was probably its large size and a small pasture. As for whether there were rich mineral resources, this was ignored by York. It is estimated that exploration has never been carried out.

On the helicopter, with a commanding height and a wide field of vision, Wang Xudong saw that there seemed to be a mountain in the distance. The mountain was not high, but it was very big.

The mountain was there, in stark contrast to the flat and vast surroundings. Wang Xudong immediately said, "There is another mountain over there, let's go and have a look."

York proudly said: "That's York Peak, named after me, and it's the largest mountain on this land."

It is indeed the largest mountain. The height is absolutely not high. It cannot be called high. It can only be considered very large. The height from the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain is definitely not more than 200 meters, but it is very large, larger than Douli Mountain. Several square kilometers.

The helicopter flew over, and Wang Xudong could see clearly that this mountain was very strange. There were some low shrubs at the foot and on the mountainside, but there was no grass on the top of the mountain, and there was no shrub at all. It looked like a big bald head.

it's wired!
When Wang Xudong saw such a mountain, he felt very strange. Why is there no grass growing on the top of the mountain? Is there something strange about it.

Song Qingsong looked puzzled, obviously also saw that this mountain was different, but Mr. York seemed to be familiar with it, and introduced: "This mountain didn't have a name before, I gave it a name, use my Named after the name, called York Hill, of course, if Mr. Wang bought this piece of land, you can also change the name of this hill.”

It doesn't matter what the name is. What Wang Xudong is concerned about is why the top of the mountain is barren and looks like a big bald head. Wang Xudong asked: "Mr. York, why is there no shrubs on the top of this mountain? It's bare. It's always been like this. Did you cut down the bushes on the top of the mountain?"

Yorke explained, "No, I don't have the time to cut down the brush on the top of the hill. It's always been that way, ever since my father owned the land."

This is really strange.

Wang Xudong looked carefully, and looked very carefully. Apart from being bare, there was nothing to be seen on the top of the mountain. If there was any difference, it would be that the color was slightly darker, almost the color of hematite. .

Wang Xudong even had the urge to start the "God-level mine owner" system, and wanted to use the system to scan it carefully to see what the hell it was and why it happened.

But there are many people on the helicopter, and Wang Xudong is still the focus of everyone, because Wang Xudong is the buyer, everyone talks to Wang Xudong from time to time. Buried in my heart.

After looking at the mountain, Wang Xudong saw that there was a railway not far from the mountain, which was a heavy-duty railway.

At this time, White pointed to this road and introduced: "Mr. Wang, this is the heavy-duty railway mentioned in the information, which passes through this land and leads to Dampier Port, which is more than 200 kilometers away. Every day, many trains loaded with ore pass through this railway.”

Wang Xudong nodded in satisfaction. This is why Wang Xudong was interested in this piece of land. If there was no such a railway, Wang Xudong probably would not be interested in this piece of land.

The area of ​​this land is very large. Even if there is a helicopter, it will not be able to see it in a short time. Wang Xudong has a rough first impression after a quick glance.

The area of ​​this land is huge. After all, the area of ​​more than 500 square kilometers is much larger than that of Hong Kong Island. The land is also very vast and flat, almost endless.

But like the rest of Western Australia, it's a desolate, mostly desert landscape with occasional sparse, low-growing, drought-tolerant shrubs.

Near noon, the helicopter flew over York's pasture. From the helicopter, the pasture was not very big, and the pasture was not considered lush. Wang Xudong was not very interested in this pasture, so he didn't ask to take a closer look.

The helicopter landed on the ranch and stopped in front of several houses. This is York's home. As the host, York warmly invited everyone to visit the house.

It is estimated that Madam York has been busy for a long time since she knew that a distinguished guest was coming. She has already prepared a lot of delicacies, and the coffee has already been brewed.

On the lawn in front of the house, a huge parasol stands up, a round table, a few chairs, and a garden table full of various fruits. Everyone holds coffee and drinks coffee and eats fruits under the shade of the parasol. , chatting.

At this moment, it seemed to be completely relaxed. In the distance, there was a gust of breeze blowing, and I felt very comfortable. In Wujiang City, it was already a cold winter, but here, it was even a bit hot, and the breeze blew , feel very comfortable.

White is the intermediary this time. If this business is completed, there will be a lot of commission. After all, more than 2000 million Australian dollars can be regarded as a big business.

White said, "Mr. Wang, how is this piece of land?"

Wang Xudong knew that the topic was coming, Wang Xudong nodded and said: "The land area is very large, but it is a bit desolate, it is arid, and the development and utilization value is very low."

York said beside him: "My dear king, the climate here is indeed arid, but the groundwater resources are relatively rich. Look at my pasture, which mainly relies on groundwater for irrigation."

It is a good thing that there are relatively abundant groundwater resources, but Wang Xudong also knows that in order to pump out groundwater, the well must be drilled to a certain depth, and water cannot be pumped out all at once.

When it comes to the transfer of land, it is natural that the seller asks for a high price, and the buyer pays back the money on the ground. Bargaining on the price is always the key point.

Wang Xudong pointed out the various shortcomings of this land, and as the seller, York cited various advantages of this land, such as the rich groundwater resources mentioned just now, and so on.

Wang Xudong said: "Mr. York, with all due respect, your ranch is too small. It is almost impossible to earn back my investment from running such a ranch."

Yes, the asking price of this piece of land in York is more than 2000 million Australian dollars. It is basically difficult to sell such a high price. A flash of inspiration flashed in York's head, and he suggested: "Mr. The demand for iron ore is soaring, and you can open an iron mine on this land and get your investment back very quickly.”

Wang Xudong really wanted to open an iron ore mine. Wang Xudong smiled and said, "Mr. York, do you have rich iron ore reserves in your land? It was not mentioned in the previous materials."

York scratched his head in embarrassment, and said embarrassingly: "To be honest, this land has not been explored for mineral resources. I don't know if there are rich iron ore reserves, but iron ore is everywhere in Western Australia. Here we say There might be plenty of iron ore too.”

Wang Xudong laughed again, "Mr. York, this is a bottomless matter, what if there is no iron ore here."

The two sides bargained until noon, when Mrs. York called for dinner, but the two sides did not reach an agreement, and there was still a certain gap between the two sides.
