Rebirth: Super Banking System

Chapter 1902: Chapter 1727: 3 Trillion

Africa.

Equatorial Guinea.

Central.

“Splash, splash, splash!”

At this moment.

It was night here, with heavy rain pouring down. The tropical climate causes more than half of the days each year to be rainy. As a central plateau, the rainfall is even more frequent, and it’s been raining for three consecutive days.

In the jungle.

Only the sound of raindrops hitting the leaves could be heard.

“Whoosh!”

At a cave.

Entrance.

A nearly two-meter-long venomous snake was about to go inside to spend the night, but before it could get close, it was cut in two. The attack came from a tree in the jungle, where a motionless, fully armed African sat.

Deep in the cave.

Thirty meters underground.

A white light source illuminated the huge space.

“Buzzing!”

Dozens of drilling equipment were working; there were no samples around because every time a drill pipe came out, it would disappear in the blink of an eye. Silently, Tang Qing appeared in the center of this underground space.

“Commander!”

“Continue with your work.”

“Yes.”

The fighters continued with their tasks.

Three days had passed.

In the first two days, large mining equipment was used to dig out this underground space, facilitating the entry of deep-layer drilling equipment. On this day, drills went down several hundred meters, and the obtained samples were gratifying.

– Ultra-high quality.

– Thick ore layer.

And the boundary had not yet been reached.

It should be known.

Finding a gold mine in Africa is becoming increasingly difficult. Once, Western countries conducted almost carpet-like exploration, though conditions were limited at that time, but almost no surface gold mine escaped detection.

Algerian gold mine.

If it weren’t in the desert, it might have been mined as well.

Here.

It is located in a highland mountain range with inconvenient transportation.

Sparsely populated.

High mining difficulty.

This relatively superficial gold mine could remain because the overhead rock layer is over thirty meters thick; satellites from space can’t detect it. Geologically, it doesn’t correspond to places that typically have gold mines.

Yet.

There it is beneath.

A few months ago.

The teleportation nodes proliferated.

Many projects adopted more execution plans. To explore deep geological mineral deposits, many micro-machine bugs were included in the plan, mainly targeting narrow tunnels leading underground.

Centipede-sized.

Rock crevices.

Underground rivers.

Various human unreachable places. Non-drilling exploration began, and thus, this place was discovered. A few steps forward led to a drilling equipment, picking up soil near the drill.

“Puff!”

Gently blew.

Dust scattered.

Under the light.

Glimmering with a faint golden hue.

“Not bad.”

Tang Qing smiled. Even the powdered substance from drilling contained such a high gold content. If found, this country’s authorities might cry. Equatorial Guinea is one of the world’s least developed countries.

However.

Ironically.

Equatorial Guinea’s per capita GDP exceeds $15,000.

Higher than even the Shanghai Stock Market, yet over fifty percent of this nation lacks access to running water. The main reason is that while oil was found in the sea bay, the money was not used to improve people’s livelihood.

It was taken by the ruling family.

Therefore.

Whether there is a gold mine or not is unrelated to poverty.

Raising his hand.

A glass bottle appeared in Tang Qing’s hand, and he collected a few more handfuls to save as a keepsake. This kind of gold mine was the third one in his possession, and he had saved some from the first two as mementos.

At present.

Tang Qing is most intrigued by the upstream of the underground gold river.

What level of gold mine.

Could it be that has flowed for an unknown amount of time, and there is downstream? Over so many years, the gold sediment there certainly isn’t all, as the waters continue flowing, most of it must have been carried away by the underground river.

Along the flow.

Could there be another such large space, capable of sedimenting gold sands?

Regarding this.

Tang Qing was very much looking forward to it.

…

Outside the cave.

The rain poured down.

Tang Qing sat on a huge rock, not getting wet by the rain at all. Who could imagine that beneath several dozen meters lay gold worth conservatively billions? Truly sitting on a golden mountain.

Unfortunately.

This secret wouldn’t spread.

“Ding Dong!”

A message flashed by.

After reading.

Tang Qing sat up.

“To further expand domestic demand and promote stable and rapid economic development, it is necessary to accelerate the construction of livelihood projects, infrastructure, and ecological environment, and to raise the income levels of urban and rural residents.”

“An initial estimate is that the implementation of these construction projects will require an investment of about three trillion RMB by the end of 2010. To accelerate the construction pace, the meeting decided to allocate an investment of 100 billion RMB in this fourth quarter.”

“…”

This morning.

The news spread throughout Huaxia.

Four trillion turned into three trillion.

This number.

Was about what Tang Qing had imagined, because the once four-trillion included nearly a trillion for post-disaster reconstruction. Since there’s no disaster this time, there’s no post-disaster reconstruction. Two years, three trillion RMB.

Pretty good.

Rental housing.

Shantytown renovations.

Dangerous building renovations.

Settlements for herders.

Rural highways.

South-to-North Water Diversion.

Subsidy.

Tax reduction.

…..

A large number of beneficial-to-the-nation-and-people projects would speed up development under this policy, laying the foundation for economic prosperity over the next decade. Lehman’s bankruptcy came two weeks earlier, and this policy was also advanced by two weeks.

Under the financial crisis.

This was the best policy to stabilize the market.

Earlier this month.

The Federal Reserve first introduced quantitative easing, infusing money into the market to stabilize it. Huaxia became the second to follow suit, and other countries subsequently did as well. However, some countries held firm, like the European Union.

Stubbornly held on.

But eventually.

Crippled Greece and several other countries.

Almost to collapse.

The EU finally stepped in.

On the brink of the second collapse.

The EU intervened again, but Greece refused further cooperation, causing global commotion, and in the end, capital triumphed. Debts nearing hundreds of billions of euros were forcibly pushed to thousands of billions.

Before rebirth.

No one talked much about the Greek debt crisis anymore.

However.

That was because EU creditors postponed the main debt repayment for a decade. Ten years was a postponement, not a remission; it was more like a suspended sentence than an amnesty. When the next repayment day came.

Tang Qing could only say.

“Hehe.”

Three hundred billion-plus euros in debt.

Repay?

Greece can’t print money.

The scale.

Is equivalent to nearly two hundred percent of Greece’s GDP. If compared to Huaxia’s size, it’s equal to owing more than a hundred trillion RMB, and this money can only be earned through taxation, not printing.

To repay it.

Don’t be too difficult.

“Boom!”

Thunder rumbled.

The world was flash white.

Tang Qing came back to his senses. He liked this kind of weather, walking alone in the dark, with heavy rain concealing his tracks. Occasionally shining upon the world, yet no one knew his appearance, somewhat akin to his current actions.

No one knew.

Below the surface of the world.

Lurking beneath was this leviathan, outsiders thought he stood on the highest ground, but in fact, he was located at the deepest place, observing everything, with only a pair of eyes above the surface.

“Boom!”

This time.

Tang Qing’s figure was already gone from the giant rock.

On the Pacific.

A container ship was sailing slowly.

In the cockpit.

Tang Qing suddenly appeared.

“Commander.”

Meijo Shipping.

Originally given to him by Maruyama Takeshi in return for saving his life. This company’s main operations are in the Atlantic, between Africa and America. The company’s original employees were all arranged together.

This one was newly purchased.

The warriors were navigating, running the Asia, Oceania to America Pacific route. This time, it was from the United States to Australia.

Outside the cockpit.

The sun was shining bright. Tang Qing came to enjoy the sea breeze.
