Chapter 299 The National Mining Group is willing to cooperate
"Deputy Secretary Qi, I have some good news for you."
The group has decided to mine rutile in your county.
You should get the paperwork done as soon as possible.
A week later, Qi Tongwei received news from Tong Xinghui that the State Mining Group would be investing in the mining of rutile in Jinshan County.
However, Qi Tongwei needs to first resolve the issues with Handong Province and Lüzhou City.
"Okay, thank you, Director Tong!"
The 600,000 people of Jinshan County will forever remember your great kindness.
Qi Tongwei was overjoyed to receive the news; after twenty days of hard work, he finally had some updates.
During this time, Qi Tongwei also inquired about the news from Hong Wenliang and Du Qiang.
There has been no progress.
Handong Mining Group and Mingzhu Mining Group are not very interested in the mineral resources of Jinshan County.
The main problem is that Jinshan County has poor transportation conditions, and mining requires the use of some large equipment.
Given the transportation conditions in Jinshan County, these devices simply cannot be transported in.
However, the cost of investing in road construction is too high.
Qi Tongwei told Hong Wenliang and Du Qiang not to rush and to continue negotiating with Handong Mining Group and Mingzhu Mining Group.
They were also instructed to inform Handong Mining Group and Mingzhu Mining Group that the State Mining Group had agreed to mine rutile in Jinshan County.
The State Mining Group is also interested in lead-zinc mines and rock salt and limestone.
If they hesitate any longer, they'll miss out.
The only news is from Jiang Songjie's side, who has invited professional agencies from Jingzhou and Mingzhu to evaluate the four large mines in Jinshan County.
"Three days from now, I will lead an exploration team from the group to Jinshan County to conduct a thorough exploration of the rutile deposits there!"
Tong Xinghui said.
Although the exploration results from the Handong Provincial Geological Team should be fine, the group definitely needs to confirm them again before mining rutile in Jinshan County.
"Yes, Director Tong!"
How many people are in your party? I'll arrange to book tickets right away!
Qi Tongwei said.
Since Tong Xinghui and his group were willing to mine minerals in Jinshan County, the transportation costs would naturally have to be covered by Jinshan County.
"No need for that, it's much easier for us to book tickets in Beijing!"
Tong Xinghui said.
Many employees in the group travel frequently, and there is a dedicated department responsible for resolving their travel issues.
"Alright, then I'll trouble Director Tong to book another ticket. I'll travel with you!"
Qi Tongwei said.
Walking together shows more sincerity.
After hanging up the phone, Qi Tongwei immediately reported the news to the county, city, and province authorities.
The county and city authorities were very pleased to receive the news.
This signifies a substantial step forward in the development of these mineral resources in Jinshan County.
On the third day, Tong Xinghui led the exploration team and Qi Tongwei to Handong.
A few days later, the group arrived in Jinshan County.
“Deputy Secretary Qi, the transportation conditions in your county are indeed very poor.”
Handong is considered a relatively wealthy province by national standards, but Jinshan County's transportation conditions are worse than those of northern provinces.
As soon as the car arrived in Jinshan County, Tong Xinghui couldn't help but exclaim.
"We also wanted to change this situation, and fortunately, we discovered several mineral deposits."
Otherwise, who knows how long we'll have to wait to solve the traffic problem!
However, with your company's arrival, the traffic situation in our county will soon improve.
Qi Tongwei said.
This is why Jinshan County hasn't changed much even though he's been here for almost five months.
Now that the State Mining Group has arrived, the transportation problem will soon be solved.
When the car arrived at the county government, Yi Xueyuan and other county party committee and government leaders who were at home were already waiting at the entrance to greet them.
They even put up a banner welcoming the State Mining Group to invest in and develop mineral resources in Jinshan County!
"Secretary Yi, this is Comrade Tong Xinghui, Director of the Planning Department of the State Mining Group!"
"Director Tong, this is Comrade Yi Xuexi, the Party Secretary of our county!"
County Head Li Dakang is currently studying at the Provincial Party School, and I will be in charge of the county government's work during this period.
Qi Tongwei introduced Tong Xinghui and Yi Xuexi.
"Hello, Director Tong, thank you and your group for bringing a ray of hope to our county..."
Yi Xuexi gripped Tong Xinghui's hands tightly and said excitedly.
With the investment from the State Mining Group, Jinshan County can finally change its impoverished and backward situation.
"Hello, Secretary Yi!"
Tong Xinghui said with a smile.
After that, Qi Tongwei introduced the other people to Yi Xuexi.
After getting to know each other, Yi Xuexi warmly welcomed Tong Xinghui and his group into the county government compound.
"Welcome Director Tong and his delegation from the State Mining Group. Welcome to the State Mining Group to invest in mineral development in Jinshan County..."
In the conference room, Yi Xuexi led the applause to welcome Tong Xinghui and his group.
Yi Xuexi stated that the Jinshan County Party Committee and County Government will fully cooperate with Tong Xinghui and his team.
On the evening of their departure, Jinshan County warmly hosted Tong Xinghui and his entourage at the guesthouse.
The next day, Qi Tongwei first convened a county government office meeting to understand the county government's work over the past twenty-odd days, and at the same time deal with the issues that had accumulated during this period.
The sale of local mountain products has been successfully completed, and the old road from the county town to the city has been repaired.
Nearly half of the roads from the county seat to Linshui Township and Shengda Township have been repaired.
On the transportation bureau's side, the planning for the first-class highway from the county seat to the city has been completed, and the planning for the second-class highways from the county seat to Nanhuang Township, Jingang Township, Batou Township, and Yunshan Township is also almost complete.
At the same time, Lin Haiyang was asked to lead the exploration team of the State Mining Group to Mount Kumgang.
On the third day, Qi Tongwei personally accompanied Tong Xinghui to Mount Kumgang to see the rutile.
On the fourth day, Qi Tongwei accompanied Tong Xinghui to Nanhuang Mountain to see the lead-zinc mine.
On the fifth day, Qi Tongwei accompanied Tong Xinghui to Batou Mountain to see the rock salt mine.
On the sixth day, Qi Tongwei accompanied Tong Xinghui to Yunshan to see the limestone mine.
After looking around, Tong Xinghui gained a basic understanding of the four major mines in Jinshan County.
In the past few days, Qi Tongwei has been persuading Tong Xinghui to develop the lead-zinc mine in Nanhuang Mountain.
The National Mining Corporation's investment in mining rutile from Mount Kumgang is substantial; it would be more cost-effective to also mine lead-zinc ore from Mount Nambang.
Rutile needs to be smelted after it is mined.
Transporting it to other places for smelting would be too costly and would increase transportation expenses significantly.
The best solution is to build a smelter in Jinshan County.
However, rutile reserves are not very large, and it may not be easy to recoup the costs by only smelting rutile.
If the smelter were to refine lead-zinc ore, it would be easier for the smelter to recoup its costs.
Selling finished products is more convenient than selling raw materials.
In this way, Jinshan County can invest in another smelter.
In the past few days, the city and province have also approved the mining of four large mines in Jinshan County.
Wang Dalu has also returned from his studies. The next person to go to the Municipal Party School for full-time study is Jiang Songjie.
Qi Tongwei asked Wang Dalu to take over the work that Jiang Songjie was in charge of.
Five days later, the exploration team from the State Mining Group, led by Tong Xinghui, completed the exploration of Mount Kumgang.
"So, does Mount Kumgang have 1 tons of rutile reserves?"
Tong Xinghui asked Shi Long, the captain of the exploration team.
If the rutile reserves are indeed 1 tons, he will immediately cooperate with Jinshan County to mine the rutile in Jinshan.
