Chapter 603 Southwest Coal Sea
Yang Dongsheng had seen a cobra before, and that thing was only one meter long, and it was no taller than a person's calf when standing up.

Although the name of this thing is very similar to that of a cobra, and it looks very similar to a cobra, it is not a snake at all.

The body of the snake is as thick as an adult's arm, and the open neck is like a banana leaf.

Yang Dongsheng watched Austin Stevens catch the king cobra on TV. The king cobra just erected the part of the front half of its body that could be opened, but the big guy in front of him couldn't even open the part of his body. He stood up, looking very strange.

The snake just stared at them so coldly that Yang Dongsheng could clearly see the scales loosening and tightening as it breathed.

Yang Dongsheng didn't dare to run, because the snake was too close to them, and the snake letter almost licked Yang Dongsheng's arm, too violent movements might irritate the snake.

Yang Dongsheng could only protect Yang Miao tightly behind him, and slowly backed away step by step.

Although Yang Dongsheng discovered that snakes were not afraid of realgar and sulfur when they were building a house in his hometown, and now he can't control so much, Yang Dongsheng quickly spread realgar and sulfur between them and the king cobra.

Maybe it felt that they were not a threat, or maybe it felt that it couldn't eat these two large primates at all. The big snake finally turned its head, raised its upper body and lay down on the ground again, and slowly crawled into the grass.

Yang Dongsheng just sat down on the ground.

At this moment, there was a sound from behind, and Yang Huai's voice came immediately, "Brother, be careful! Listen to him, someone found a passing mountain wind on this mountain two days ago... What's wrong with you?"

"Uncle Huai, we just saw a huge cobra, standing taller than me!" Yang Miao said while gesticulating.

When Yang Huai heard this, his face turned pale.

Yang Huai hurriedly pulled Yang Dongsheng up from the ground, Yang Dongsheng patted the dust off his body, turned his head and asked, "Are you still peeing?"

Yang Dongsheng also felt a little uncomfortable in his bladder, so he stood side by side with Yang Miao.

"Father, it's said in the book that if you encounter a cobra, you just need to break its glasses, and it won't see anything!" Yang Miao looked at Yang Dongsheng, "But why didn't that snake wear glasses just now?"

"This... it might be wearing contact lenses!" Yang Dongsheng suddenly felt that his son's IQ was worrying, "You know that cobra wearing glasses is just a joke, right?"

"I'm making you happy!" Yang Miao said.

"Should I smile?"

Several people returned to the crowd and told what happened just now, everyone broke out in a cold sweat.

As soon as they got back to the hotel, Qianxing and Zhucheng sent people to express condolences, fearing that they would scare away the big boss Yang Dongsheng.

They also organized people to go up the mountain to catch snakes, but they couldn't find them at all.

Yang Dongsheng could only order Manager Jiang of Dongsheng Foods to raise more dogs to prevent snakes, and to keep snake venom serum on hand.

Yang Dongsheng also looked at the new area planned by the Zhucheng government, and planned to buy a piece of land next to the lake. According to the plan, the Zhucheng government also planned to move to that area.

Hearing that Yang Dongsheng plans to build a comprehensive commercial center integrating hotel, entertainment, shopping and office here, the Zhucheng City Government is very happy.

After they proposed to build a new urban area, all parties were generally not optimistic, and the work of attracting investment encountered great difficulties.

The Zhucheng government immediately made a decision to give Yang Dongsheng a huge discount, and Yang Dongsheng could choose the location of the new urban area at will.

Yang Dongsheng walked along the lake, covering more than half of the entire lake area.

Leaving Zhucheng, Yang Dongsheng's next stop is Wumengshan City, an important industrial town in western Guizhou Province.

Wumeng Mountain is the most resource-rich city in Guizhou Province. Its coal reserves alone are as high as hundreds of billion tons, more than half of which are anthracite. Among the remaining coal, coking coal reserves also have more than 100 billion tons. It is known as the "Southwest Coal Sea". .

There are quite a few cities across the country with coal reserves reaching [-] billion tons, but most of them are anthracite and coking coal like Wumeng Mountain, which is almost the only one.

Relying on the rich local coking coal resources, Wumeng Mountain has built the largest steel plant in Guizhou Province.

In this cooperation, Wumengshan Iron and Steel Works has obtained two blast furnaces. In addition to a complete set of blast furnaces and coking equipment, there is also a medium-thick plate production line, a high-speed bar production line, and two high-speed wire rod production lines.

There are also two rotary tunnel kilns that can use slag, and a full set of brick-making equipment.

The economy of Guizhou Province is backward, it cannot use so much coal itself, and its infrastructure is relatively backward, so it is difficult to transport coal abroad.

There is a lot of coal and it cannot be transported out, which makes the transfer price of coal resource mining rights in Guizhou Province very low. Even for coking coal, the transfer price per ton is less than [-] cents.

They exchanged for 200 billion tons of anthracite and coking coal resources through equipment alone.

In addition, in the plan of Guizhou Province, the coalbed methane from Mount Wumeng will not only be supplied to Guangdong Province, but also to most areas including the capital Zhucheng of Guizhou Province. They exchange coal resources for the development of coalbed methane.

Yang Huai also spent a lot of money to buy a lot of resources. For coal alone, they have obtained more than 300 billion tons of anthracite resources and several billion tons of coking coal resources.

In addition to coal, Wumengshan City also has copper mines, lead-zinc mines, nickel mines and other minerals.

In addition to resources, Dongsheng Heavy Industry has also reached a cooperation agreement with Wumengshan Coal Mine Machinery Factory.

The transportation in Guizhou Province is really bad. If all the machinery and equipment have to be transported from Dongsheng Heavy Industry, if there is a problem and then transported back for repair, the cost will be too high and the production will be too delayed.

Speaking of which, the Wumengshan Coal Mining Machinery Factory has some connections with Yang Dongsheng. This machinery factory was established in 1965. At the beginning of its establishment, the workers were basically from the Guazhou Mining Machinery Factory. It was an important project of the national third-line project. .

The biggest problem in Wumengshan City is the lack of iron ore.

According to the original national plan, Wumengshan City in the southwestern part of Guizhou Province has rich coking coal reserves but poor iron ore; Kapok City in southeastern Sichuan Province has rich iron ore reserves but poor coking coal.

Therefore, iron and steel plants were built in the two cities, and coking coal was transported from Wumengshan City to Kapok City by railway, and iron ore was transported back on the return journey, forming a "pendulum-like" coal-iron convection between the two cities.

This "pendulum-style" coal-iron convection scheme was a very successful case in the construction of the third national line at that time, and provided the steel that was in short supply for the entire southwest region at that time.

But after 2000, the market economy environment was not so successful.

Wumengshan City and Kapok City are said to be close, but the straight-line distance between the two cities is about 300 kilometers. The southwest of Guizhou Province and the southeast of Sichuan Province are mountainous areas. The actual distance traveled by the railway is nearly 600 kilometers. In the middle, we have to go up and down the mountain frequently. Compared with those newly built steel enterprises in the east, the logistics cost is too high.
