Cross the Songhu battlefield and rise to become the most powerful warlord

680 Uranium mining

Fortunately, the Ye family is large and prosperous, otherwise Ye Qingshan would have to find so many close and trustworthy people to watch over such a large business.

What a problem.

Although, Ye Qingshan was also aware of some problems that would arise from using family members.

But in the short term, this problem will not be too serious.

After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Ye Qingshan will have time to solve these problems.

At this special time, it is most appropriate to employ family members to control companies around the world.

"Fourth Uncle, you should be busy with what you need to do.

Just let the third brother accompany me for a walk."

Ye Qingshan was not very familiar with his fourth uncle, so after exchanging greetings, he took Ye Qinglan away.

Ye Qingshan had only one purpose for this trip to Western Australia.

"Third brother, has the uranium mine that our exploration team found been confirmed?"

In the car, Ye Qingshan asked quietly.

Seeing Ye Qingshan's serious look, Ye Qinglan did not dare to neglect it and nodded immediately: "Yes, it has been confirmed.

The uranium mine that was found will not have too low reserves.

I was just about to ask you whether or not to start mining."

Ye Qingshan was also very excited after hearing this.

“Mining is definitely necessary, but uranium is different from other mines.

Mining must be fully prepared.

In particular, we must pay attention to confidentiality and not let the outside world know that there are uranium mines here.

So, I'm not confident in leaving this matter to other people.

It can only be left to you, the third brother, to be responsible for it personally.

And don't tell anyone but me that our business allies can't.

Even... Fourth Uncle's side has to be kept secret.

Be sure to choose someone who is absolutely trustworthy to be in charge, and all employees involved must sign a confidentiality agreement.

Also, the armed team must be fully equipped, and no one should be allowed to get close to us within a few miles."

Ye Qingshan instructed carefully.

Ye Qinglan had a good memory and wrote them all down one by one.

Ye Qinglan's intuition told her that Ye Qingshan was going to do something big here.

But unfortunately, his cognition still limited Ye Qinglan's imagination. No matter how hard he tried, he could never guess what kind of earth-shattering thing Ye Qingshan was going to do here.

The two of them drove west for a whole day.

We came to a canyon area, which was very desolate.

For most of the day, Ye Qingshan could not see any traces of human beings outside the car window.

“It’s a nice place indeed.”

Ye Qingshan was very satisfied with this sparsely populated environment.

Their convoy was intercepted at the entrance of a canyon.

"it's me."

Only after Ye Qinglan showed up in person did the guards let them pass.

Not long after the convoy entered the canyon, Ye Qingshan saw some workers appearing and working on construction here.

"President, General Manager."

When the car stopped, Ye Qingshan got out and saw a familiar figure again.

"I remember you, you are Zhao Haidong."

After Ye Qingshan recalled for a moment, he remembered the man's identity.

"Boss, I didn't expect you still remember me."

"Of course I remember. After all, we fought side by side in Jinling City."

Ye Qingshan said with a smile.

When the Battle of Nanjing took place, Zhao Haidong was a manager in Nanjing.

Later, he was responsible for the construction of the shelter and the digging of underground tunnels, which was a great help to Ye Qingshan.

Ye Qingshan has a very vivid memory.

“Haha, Haidong came to help me a long time ago.

He is the manager I trust the most.

So, the uranium mining on this side of the canyon, and the whole thing about that weird equipment you asked to be built.

I'll leave it to him to take charge here."

Ye Qinglan also came out of the car, and when he saw Ye Qingshan recognized Zhao Haidong, he immediately spoke.

“Yes, Haidong is still very prudent in doing things.

This makes me feel more at ease.”

"Come on, let's go in and take a look."

Afterwards, Ye Qingshan and the other two went deep into the canyon to inspect it.

Now, Ye Qinglan and his team have released news that a gold mine has been discovered here and they are planning to mine it.

In addition, uranium mines were not given much attention in this era.

Therefore, the mining activities here did not attract the attention of the outside world.

This is the best thing for Ye Qingshan.

“The project here cannot be completed in a short time.

Take your time, there's no need to rush.

In addition to starting mining, you must also simultaneously carry out the construction of factories in the canyon.

In the next two years, I will have people send in some engineers and equipment.

You don’t need to be responsible for the rest.”

Ye Qingshan was very cautious in making the giant mushroom, as it was a long-term project.

As the trump card that Ye Qingshan prepared for himself, it would not be excessive to be extremely cautious.

This inspection lasted three days.

Ye Qingshan’s overall feeling is good.

Three days later, Ye Qingshan returned to the port, boarded the Tianshu with Alice again, and left Western Australia.

In early March, Ye Qingshan's battlecruiser, the Tianshu, arrived at Jeddah Port again.

Then take a transport plane to Mandalay.

At this time, more than five months had passed since Ye Qingshan's second trip to the United States.

"Finally back."

Ye Qingshan got off the transport plane and looked at the familiar Mandalay Airport with great emotion.

"Haha, Ye, you're finally back."

Then, Ye Qingshan heard a familiar and loud voice.

Stilwell, Luo Zhuoying and others came towards them.

"Stilwell, Lao Luo."

The three of them hugged each other and were all very happy.

"I heard on the other side of the ocean that you defeated Yamashita Tomoyuki's 25th Army and drove them out of Burma.

You guys did a great job.”

Ye Qingshan gave Stilwell a thumbs up.

"It was just a fluke."

Stilwell waved his hand.

"Let's go, get in the car and go back to the headquarters. It's too windy here."

Ye Qingshan looked at Stilwell's expression, which was a little strange and confused.

But it was not convenient to ask at this time, so he followed Stilwell into his private car.

Escorted by a guard company, the military vehicle they were riding in quickly returned to the Allied headquarters in Mandalay.

The long journey made Ye Qingshan and Alice very tired.

After arriving at the headquarters, Ye Qingshan arranged for Alice to rest, but he found Luo Zhuoying.

He wanted to learn more from Luo Zhuoying about the specific situation of the expeditionary force at that time, especially the situation of his direct troops, the 86th Army.

Luo Zhuoying seemed to know that Ye Qingshan was coming, and had asked his adjutant to organize the information and hand it to Ye Qingshan.

"Old Ye, here is the deployment of our expeditionary force and the British army in Burma.

And during your absence, General Stilwell commanded our expeditionary force and the British army to fight against the Japanese 25th Army."

Ye Qingshan took the document handed over by Luo Zhuoying and spent half a day quickly reading it.

Luo Zhuoying sat next to him and drank tea quietly without disturbing him.

After watching the battle, Ye Qingshan looked at Luo Zhuoying with a confused look on his face.
