They received news of the deaths of Mattila and her family.
The village chief of Marula returned to the village with several members of his tribe. When he saw the wreckage on the ground, he sighed.
He murmured to himself, "Matila, may your family rest in peace in heaven."
“Village chief, Matila is ungrateful. We told him to move to the farm with us, but he wouldn’t listen. He deserves to die,” a tribesman said discontentedly.
Marula waved her hand.
He commanded, "Alright, that's enough. Respect for the dead is paramount. Gather the belongings of the Mattila family and bury them."
Upon receiving orders, three men went to dig a pit not far away, while two others stayed behind to collect the belongings of the Mattila family.
Twenty minutes later, four small mounds of earth appeared at the foot of the forest. The Tuva people performed a simple sacrificial ceremony around the mounds before hurrying back to the farm.
Inside the farm villa, several managers were waiting for the boss's arrangements and plans for the new day.
Chen Xiyu handed the completed documents and certificates to her boss, Chen Ze.
Chen Ze saw that all the documents had been processed and a faint smile appeared on his face.
He praised, "Very good, this money was well spent. You know, it's usually very difficult to get security company credentials overseas without connections. They even got us gun licenses. Secretary Shen, remember to send Lisa a gift on special occasions in Cameron. Make sure to maintain a good relationship with her."
She was very happy to receive the boss's praise and replied, "Yes, boss~ I will remember it."
Then, Chen Ze looked at Wang Zhengang and asked, "Old Wang, have you bought all the mining equipment yet?"
"The mining equipment was shipped back from the port yesterday and is now at the training base. We just need mining workers to start production," Old Wang replied.
Chen Ze nodded in satisfaction.
He instructed, "Oniver, go to the town immediately and recruit workers. We need twenty workers to start with, and we can recruit more if needed later."
“Yes, boss,” Oniever replied.
Then, Chen Ze gave Zeng Bojian a task: "Old Zeng, it's a bit chaotic here. Send four people to stay with Onif and protect her safety. Also, after the mine starts operating, send twenty security guards to keep watch."
“Understood, boss, I’ll arrange it right away,” Zeng Bojian replied readily.
Chen Ze then looked at everyone with a serious expression, "As you all know, there will definitely be many difficulties and dangers in carrying out this project in a foreign country, but as long as we work together, there is no difficulty that we cannot overcome."
Everyone nodded, their eyes filled with enthusiasm.
Chen Ze waved to the crowd.
Everyone got up and dispersed, each going about their own work.
Wait until all the managers have left.
Shen Xiyu took out two agreements from her bag and handed them to the boss. "These two are the mining rights. We spent 300 million US dollars to obtain the mining rights for 99 years. Please sign them."
Only three hundred million US dollars? Chen Ze looked at his secretary in shock, wondering how she had managed it. He carefully read through the agreement, and after confirming there were no traps, he immediately signed it.
In just a few days since Chen Ze visited Mellon, including the purchase of the farm, he has already invested nearly $600 million, including mining equipment, mining trucks, and excavators, all of which were imported from China.
A cell phone rang, and he looked at the caller ID; it was an unfamiliar number.
Pick up the phone on the table and press answer.
Chen Daming's voice came from the other end of the phone, "Chairman, all of our Guangfu Businessmen have arrived at Yaoundé Airport. We'll come find you right away."
Upon hearing that they had all arrived in Yaoundé, Chen Ze looked surprised. "Wait, Vice President, you've arrived so quickly? Why didn't you give me a heads-up so I could pick you up?"
"President, what are you saying? It's not too late to come and pick us up now!" Chen Daming said with a smile.
“Um… I’m not in Yaoundé right now, but in Mora, to the north,” Chen Ze explained.
"Mora City? That's quite a distance from Yaoundé," Chen Daming said with a hint of helplessness.
Chen Ze thought for a moment,
He said, "Vice President, thank you all for taking the long drive to Mora City. Things have just started here, and I really can't leave."
Chen Daming readily agreed, "Alright, Chairman, you go ahead with your work, we'll set off right away."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Ze turned to Shen Xiyu and said, "Secretary Shen, make arrangements to prepare a welcome banquet for the Guangfu Merchants when they arrive in Mora City."
Shen Xiyu nodded, "Don't worry, boss, I'll arrange it right away."
Chen Ze got up and walked out of the villa to the outside of the farm. He found that the indigenous people's house was already half-built. As the saying goes, many hands make light work, and the house was simple in structure. It was expected that the indigenous people could move in tomorrow.
There is a security post at the entrance on the road leading to the farm, guarded by dedicated personnel.
In the afternoon, three off-road armored vehicles slowly drove into the farm and stopped in front of the villa.
The car door opened, and Chen Daming and the others got out of the car.
When he saw Chen Ze standing at the entrance of the hall, smiling at them, Chen Daming quickly stepped forward to greet him.
"President, this is the middle of nowhere, the roads are terrible, the ride was so bumpy I threw up several times," Chen Daming complained.
Chen Ze warmly shook his hand, "You've worked hard. Come in, lunch is ready for you."
Next up were Chen Youfu, Chen Yu, Chen Xing, Chen Hanting, Zhao Qingyang, Chen Hao, and Fatty Zhang Jiesheng...
I shook hands with each of them individually.
Then, everyone filed in and entered the villa's hall.
Chen Ze led them into the dining hall, saying, "We're all family here, so there's no need to be polite. Let's eat and chat."
However, everyone tacitly watched Chen Ze sit down first before they took their seats in turn.
Chen Ze gave a brief introduction to the progress of the farm and mining projects, which everyone listened to with great interest.
At this moment, Zhao Qingyang, a member of the merchant guild, suddenly spoke up: "President, on our way here, we heard that there is a local armed force in this area that frequently harasses the surrounding villages. Will this affect your project?"
Chen Ze chuckled.
He said, "Those are all small, bullying forces. My security company's personnel are all armed, so there won't be any major problems. If they dare to come, we'll wipe them out."
The table was laden with various delicacies. Chen Ze raised his glass and said, "Thank you all for coming from afar to develop Macklone with me. As long as we work together, I believe it won't be long before this place belongs to us Chinese."
Everyone raised their glasses, and the atmosphere became lively.
Everyone discussed it together; some planned to open a supermarket, some planned to develop real estate, and some planned to start their own factory...
Chen Ze stood up and said seriously, "As long as you get your businesses up and running, I will send security personnel to protect you. So you can go all out and do your job. Next, I will also recruit some strong local people to arm an external security force."
"Clap clap clap..."
Upon hearing Chen Ze's words, everyone applauded.
