Chapter 446 Obtaining a Billion Gift Package Again
That night, both of them were very satisfied with the meal at the new house. Andy showed her highest level of cooking skills, cooking all kinds of meat with plenty of juice, and completely maintaining the deliciousness of the meat.
Andy also ate a lot, and his belly was full and round. This was the biggest meal she had ever eaten.
It’s twelve o’clock at midnight.
"Ding, [Daily Gift Pack·Xiao Nian] has arrived, do you want to open it?"
"open."
"This gift package is an annual summary gift package, and the system automatically increases the level of the gift package. The gift package is being opened... Congratulations to the host, who has obtained the [Tianmu Forest Farm Exchange Voucher]."
"[Tianmu Forest Farm Exchange Voucher]: This forest farm is located in Western Siberia, covering an area of 200,000 hectares, with a 39-year operating right, a timber reserve of 10 million cubic meters, and an annual mining capacity of 120,000 cubic meters of logs. Valuation of the forest farm: 120000000000 rubles. ps: Host, please go to Kuzik Kletovaya Accounting Office to collect it within seven days."
The number in this gift bag made Chen Chuan unable to react for a moment.
These various tens of thousands and so many zeros made Chen Chuan look at the contents of the gift package again. He ignored everything else and looked at the valuation first. He counted, 10 zeros, which is 120 billion rubles.
This gift package is 120 billion rubles! He remembered that the last time he acquired the Andrea Hot Spring Villa in Western Siberia, it was valued at 5 billion rubles. The size of this forest farm is 24 times that of the villa!
120 billion rubles is equivalent to 12 billion yuan, the same as his ancient film and television city. When he got the film and television city, he bought it with [Industry 50% off coupons]. He spent 6 billion on it, and the forest farm was given to him for free.
Even though he now has a huge wealth, the amount of 120 billion rubles has swelled his bloodline. I thought that Andy would not be able to expand now that he had eaten so much at night.
He opened the app and booked a flight to Siberia.
I checked the Tianmu Forest Farm online again and found that it is a forest farm in Western Siberia that has an export license. There are not many news that I can find, and a few of them are about the serious illegal harvesting of trees in Western Siberia. This forest farm was mentioned in it, and it was also said that the forest rangers of the forest farm exchanged fire with poachers, and both sides were injured...
The word "firefight" made Chen Chuan tremble with fear. He felt brave enough to beat Ye Zhen's younger brother with a wooden stick in Haiqin City, but over there in Maozi Country, thinking of the scene of the confrontation between the heavily armed forest rangers and the poachers with firearms, he felt that these two actions seemed like he was Not enough.
Times have changed now,
No more fists and kicks, bullets can't move faster.
The second news I found is that Tianmu Forest Farm mainly harvests Korean pine, which is in great demand in the domestic furniture market. The wood harvested from lumberyards is mainly exported to the country.
Although the forest farm has 10 million cubic meters of wood reserves, the country will definitely not allow all of them to be mined. There is a standard for harvesting volume every year, and that volume cannot be exceeded. Tianmu Forest Farm’s logging permit is 120,000 cubic meters.
Chen Chuan checked the price of red pine logs again and found that it was 1,500 yuan per cubic meter.
I clicked on the computer and found that 120,000 cubic meters multiplied by 1,500 yuan is 180 million yuan.
In other words, this forest farm can earn 1.8 yuan in revenue from exporting logs every year. Excluding mining costs, the operation and maintenance costs of the forest farm...are guaranteed to be more than 100 million yuan. At present, Chen Chuan does not know how much the maintenance of the forest farm will cost.
The management right is for 39 years. In other words, if he can earn 100 million per year, then this forest farm can earn him a guaranteed profit of 3.9 billion.
As for whether the operating right will be renewed after it expires, it should depend on local policies.
As for whether the quota of timber that can be mined every year will increase, it should also depend on policies.
As for whether the price of wood will rise, it depends on the market. According to the curve, the price of logs is rising year by year. You see, in the furniture market now, just buying a set of solid wood furniture is extremely expensive.
In short, Chen Chuan did some research and knew that this was another big industry that provided him with at least 100 million in income every year, and its name happened to also start with the prefix Tian. His [Tianlong Group] added another Big Mac. industry.
Why do you say Big Mac? Because Chen Chuan checked the area and found the concept of 200,000 hectares.
In terms of output value, making 110 million per year is not that big of a deal.
But in terms of area... this forest farm is terrifyingly big.
How big is this...
1 hectare is 15 acres, 200,000 hectares is 3 million acres, or 2,000 square kilometers.
The concept of 2,000 square kilometers is that the area of Beijing and Shanghai is not considered to be the vast suburbs. The built-up area alone is only more than 1,000 square kilometers.
Second-tier cities like Jinling and Chengdu only have more than 500 square kilometers, and a third-tier city only has 200 square kilometers.
For example, in the core urban area of Haiqin City, the total area of the four major districts is less than 200 square kilometers. Adding several new urban areas in the east and west, the total area is only 1,000 square kilometers.
Such an area cannot be covered in a day and night if you walk in a straight line or ride a bicycle.
After such investigation, Chen Chuan had some idea in his mind. It was really a sea of forest that could not be seen to the end.
In view of receiving such a big gift package, Chen Chuan was excited and his blood was swollen, so Chen Chuan called Andy up again...
The second day.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Chen Chuan arrived at Haiqin International Airport and boarded the Siberia Airlines flight to Kuzik. In the first class cabin, he once again felt the enthusiasm of the blond stewardess from Maozi Country. Even if the bathroom faucet doesn't produce water, they will solve it themselves.
After an eight-hour flight, we arrived in Kuzik at five o'clock in the evening. The time zone here is one hour ahead of the country. It’s the same as last time. There is no discomfort. This is his second time here.
After setting foot on the land here, Chen Chuan thought again of the girl suffering from [Myelocerebellar Variation] whom he met the last time he came here - Su Cha. I met that girl on Bihu, and we were considered internet friends. She studied abroad at Kuzik State University and is a lovely girl who loves life.
Before the plane took off, Chen Chuan sent her a message saying that he would come.
But she didn't reply.
Looking at her account on Bihu - Chachashu, it shows that the last time she logged in was 17 days ago.
You know, she was a warm-hearted activist before, and she would answer any questions about Mao Ziguo.
It's a little strange that I haven't logged in for 17 days.
Chen Chuan contacted Su Cha's classmate Xu Meng, who had the attribute of "gangster".
The last time he came, Xu Meng misunderstood him as a braggart with no money. Later, without blinking an eye, he bought a Bentley Bentayga SUV worth 19 million rubles before slapping Xu Meng in the face.
The message she sent to Xu Meng was replied instantly. She said she would pick him up in Chen Chuan's Bentayga.
Before Chen Chuan left last time, he left the Bentayga with Su Cha to drive.
Under the dusk of sunset, the city of Kuzik is golden.
In the golden light, Chen Chuan walked out of the airport and saw the little girl standing next to the black Bentayga.
At this moment, Chen Chuan wished that the little girl was Su Cha's classmate with a sweet smile.
Xu Meng smiled and said, "Are you a little disappointed when you see it's me?"
"Where's Su Cha?" Chen Chuan asked.
Xu Meng shook his head and said, "It was three or four days after you left last time. Su Cha went home on leave. She hasn't come back yet. I sent her several WeChat messages, and she would reply at first. Later, she gradually stopped coming back. Did something happen to her family? "
Chen Chuan had a bad premonition in his heart.
Before leaving last time, he repeatedly asked Su Cha to get checked...
Now she suddenly takes leave to go home and loses contact with her.
Could it be that he listened to his words, went for a check-up, and was found to have [Spinocerebellar Variation], so he went home for treatment?
How desperate would a little girl in her twenties feel when she learned that she had this terminal disease?
Chen Chuan thought of the heroine in "One Liter of Tears". There was no outward sign of the disease, but she would gradually lose balance, sink slowly, and eventually lose all ability to move and die.
"Fuck!" Chen Chuan felt a little depressed and kicked away the cans on the roadside outside the airport, wanting to vent his anger.
The can flew up against the wind, was blown back by the wind, and hit Xu Meng's head.
Xu Meng stood there blankly, his eyes blank as he said, "What do you mean? I came to pick you up. You are very disappointed, but there is no need to curse and kick the can on my head, right?"
"Sorry, this was an accident." Chen Chuan said, "Do you have Su Cha's phone number or home address?"
"I have the phone number. I called it but it didn't go through. I don't know my home address. What's wrong? Did something happen?" Xu Meng asked, "Before she leaves, please give me the key to the Bentayga SUV and say If you come to Kuzik, I will drive to pick you up. But don’t worry, I will take good care of your car for you. I have never driven it.”
"Let's eat first." Chen Chuan got in the car.
Under Xu Meng's guidance, I went to a restaurant and finished my meal in a hurry.
No matter how much money he had, there was nothing he could do about Su Cha.
Unless he dared to try and drink Su Cha with [Water of Life], he couldn't even guess what this thing could do. It would either die suddenly, or soar into the sky, or evolve into loss, or evolve into juice extraction. Ji...it's hard to say for sure.
"Gan! How long has it been since I still thought about such a good thing!" Chen Chuan said to himself.
Xu Meng looked at Chen Chuan with sympathetic eyes and said: "Master, are you in a bad mood this time? It's just because Chacha is not here. She should be fine. If her home is in the mountains and there is no signal, then Isn't the contact normal? Maybe a grandparent is sick or something, and she is taking care of her at home."
Chen Chuan took out his wallet, counted out 50 rubles, each with a face value of 5,000, and handed it to Xu Meng.
"Oh my God, you're throwing money at me again this time..." Xu Meng didn't dare to answer. She must still remember the last time Chen Chuan threw money at her face.
"Do you know what it means to give you this money?" Chen Chuan asked.
"I know, let me have some discernment in the future, don't take the rich second generation seriously, don't make fun of others easily." Xu Meng said.
50 tickets cost 5,000 rubles, which is 250,000 rubles, equivalent to 25,000 rubles.
Chen Chuan thought it was too much, so he withdrew 30 more and gave 20 to Xu Meng, which was equivalent to 10,000 yuan.
"Well, this has devalued it by more than half?" Xu Meng's mouth twitched and she guessed, "My answer just now was nonsense. What do you mean... Chacha is not here, so you want me to play games with you tonight, right? That's right? Money may not be very good, to be honest, I haven’t..."
"Bah!" Chen Chuan expressed his disdain for the girl's thoughts.
"Accompany?" Xu Meng said, "Then... why did you withdraw 30 tickets? Twenty-five thousand, and ten thousand... the service and mentality are definitely different. In order to have a better experience, Master, you will not do anything worse than this. Would you like some money?"
Chen Chuan rolled his eyes and said: "I'm not in the mood to joke with you. This 100,000 rubles, equivalent to 10,000 yuan, is used to ask you to help do something. Ask and find out where Su Cha's house is. It's best to be accurate. To the building number and room number. Can you do it?"
"able!"
"Take it away."
Xu Meng put the 20 big bills into his pocket and sighed: "It's so nice to be friends with the rich! I haven't done anything, but I'm nervous about ten thousand yuan. By the way, where will you sleep at night?"
Chen Chuan didn't answer and dialed a number. It was from Kletovaya Accounting Firm.
He made an appointment with the accountant he was working with to meet at the company's headquarters in Tianmu Forest Farm.
After making the call, Chen Chuan stood up and said, "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. I'll drive off the Bentayga."
"This is your car..." Xu Meng smiled, "Then walk slowly. I'm going to inquire about the matter you gave me. I'll contact you if I have any news."
…
At the accounting firm, Chen Chuan reconciled the accounts for the accountant responsible for the forest farm audit.
Chen Chuan thought to himself, it seems that the system has purchased [Tianmu Forest Farm] a long time ago, and the preliminary work has been done. All matters before the handover have been handled by accountants and lawyers. All he has to do is wait for himself to sign the final transfer contract.
I learned from the accountant that there were more than 800 workers in this forest farm, 700 of whom were from Maozi. There are more than a hundred Chinese people.
There are 73 large-scale logging machinery, 98 cranes, large machine tools for cutting logs, drying plants, transportation equipment, etc. The comprehensive cost is 40%.
Chen Chuan looked through last year's financial statements and found that the net profit was 1.1 billion rubles, or 110 million yuan, which was basically the same as his previous estimate.
The main tree species harvested in the forest farm are red pine and white pine. The price of red pine is 1,500 yuan per cubic meter, and the price of white pine can reach 2,000 yuan.
The forest farm is relatively close to Longjiang Province in China, across the Heihe River. There are two entry lanes for wood products. One is to use block trains to import timber from Siberia directly through state customs, and then take trains directly to central cities in China, such as Changsha. The other part enters through Suifenhe Port and is exported to the Haiqin Timber Association and more than 20 timber production companies.
The forest farm has complete supporting facilities at the entrance and exit, including logging, cutting, drying, transportation, and sales channels. Chen Chuan can just be a hands-off shopkeeper.
In the evening, Chen Chuan drove with his accountant to the forest farm station, located in the town of Amule in the Siberian forest.
This is a remote and desolate town. Most of the forest farm workers are residents of this town, as well as people from China who come to work. Although the environment of the town is not good, the income of residents is not low. In total, it is equivalent to 10,000 yuan a month, which is higher than that of white-collar workers working in the city center.
At six o'clock in the evening.
Chen Chuan's car arrived here, and when he saw the environment here, he understood why the salary was high, the weather was freezing cold, the snow was piled up to his knees, and the endless forest as far as the eye could see was endless, giving people a sense of despair.
There are no entertainment facilities in the town, and even the mobile phone signal is very poor. I can access the Internet, but the speed is very slow. If you play a mobile game here, you can kill your teammates.
Working in this environment, wages must be high.
Chen Chuan felt that if he lived in this kind of environment, he would go crazy.
"Mr. Chen, that six-story building is the office building of the forest farm company. Over there are the employee dormitories and wood storage yard. The infrastructure is being improved." The accountant introduced to Chen Chuan.
Large transport trucks roared past the town from time to time, carrying thick logs one by one, all of which had been cut.
"This batch belongs to the former forest farm owner. It will be sent to the state customs gate for fumigation and disinfection to kill bugs and bacteria in the wood. Then it will be re-entered and transported to the destination by train." The accountant continued to explain.
Chen Chuan, led by his accountant, walked around the town and looked at this large forest farm. It can be said that the forest farm buildings have integrated with the town.
Suddenly, several black SUVs arrived quickly.
Chen Chuan's eyes were attracted by these cars.
These cars looked tall and big, as domineering as Toyota, but Chen Chuan didn't recognize the car logos.
The accountant said: "Mr. Chen, those cars are Lada, which is our country's number one car brand. The power of this SUV is not its strong point, but the harsh driving environment and off-road skills are Lada's advantages. This kind of A female driver can’t control a car! It’s a man’s toy.”
As soon as the accountant finished speaking, Chen Chuan saw a blond girl with a head of nearly 1.8 meters getting out of a Lada SUV in the lead. She was wearing mountain camouflage uniforms, carrying an automatic rifle similar to an AK47, and had a gun on the bridge of her nose. Wearing sunglasses and a hairstyle with bangs, he looks full of fighting spirit.
Mao Mei, who was carrying a gun, noticed Chen Chuan and turned her head to look over.
