Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm

Chapter 631 Guano Phosphate Mine!

But Wang Lu soon noticed that the expression on Parker's face didn't seem too excited.

This also made Wang Lu a little confused, but he immediately went out and got in the car with great interest, and followed Parker to check out the newly discovered minerals on his ranch.

Starting from the base camp living area, we headed straight to the shores of Lake Victoria. It is said that the newly discovered minerals are on the land nearby.

After arriving, Wang Lu also saw the exploration personnel of the construction assistance group busy at work. Since this is the only place in the entire land suitable for building a hotel, the preliminary work of the construction assistance group can be done in advance, such as some surveying and mapping data, etc. .

After all, no matter which architectural design firm wins the bid, they will need their assistance to the construction group to carry out the construction.

Seeing Wang Lu's arrival, all the surveying and mapping personnel stopped what they were doing and said hello to Wang Lu. The person in charge of the team at the scene probably knew Wang Lu's purpose and planned to lead the way in person, but instead Was rejected by Wang Lu.

"I just came to check on the situation, so I won't delay your work!"

Seeing what Wang Lu said, the surveying and mapping personnel of the construction aid group continued to work on the work at hand.

Wang Lu motioned to Parker to continue leading the way, and soon this guy led Wang Lu to a piece of land in his own territory on the shores of Lake Victoria.

Across Wanglu in the distance, I saw a large number of birds inhabiting the lakeside. They were large in number and also rich in variety.

Flocks of flamingos, cormorants, and egrets are leisurely sunbathing. In fact, in addition to these birds that Wang Lu can name, there are also eagles, owls, woodpeckers, and white-necked birds that live around Lake Victoria all year round. Crows, pigeons, cuckoos and other birds.

With the arrival of Wang Lu's Raptor, a large number of birds were frightened and immediately took off. However, there were also many dumbfounded young people who stayed in place and looked at Wang Lu and his group.

After getting off the car, Wang Lu stepped on the ground next to the car. He could clearly feel that the soil in this area was softer than in other places, but he didn't pay too much attention to it.

Instead, he turned to Parker and asked:

"Parker, where are the minerals you mentioned?"

Facing Wang Lu's inquiry, Parker looked a little subtle and pointed directly at his feet:

"The boss is at your feet!"

Wang Lu raised his eyebrows when he heard this and said casually:

"Of course I know. What I mean is what kind of minerals did you find here, how deep is it underground, and is it difficult to mine?"

Seeing that his boss still didn't understand what he meant, Parker also said directly:

"Boss, I think you don't fully understand what I mean. Those minerals are not underground, but on the surface!"

Minerals on the surface?

Wang Lu sniffed and frowned. Apart from piles of bird droppings, there was nothing else around the land. Not to mention the minerals, not even a single good-looking pebble could be found.

And if it weren't for the fact that it was close to the lake and was blown by the breeze on the lake, Wang Lu wouldn't have imagined how so many birds gathered in this land. The various bird droppings combined together and accumulated over the years would taste so sour.

Then Wang Lu saw Parker take out a shovel from the back of the car, dig the shovel in front of him, and then stopped. “Parker, you don’t want to think that these are the minerals you are talking about, do you?”

"Oh yes, boss, your wisdom is truly outstanding!"

Wang Lu just asked casually. He didn't expect Parker to answer like this. Isn't this shovel just some soil?

Wang Lu did not speak, but stared at Parker's face, obviously wanting to get a reasonable explanation from him, and Parker quickly explained:

"Boss, I'm not kidding. These are the minerals we discovered during the exploration process. These are all guano phosphate rocks!"

Guano phosphate rock?

Seeing Wang Lu's confused look, Parker immediately started to explain without stopping.

"According to our speculation, this site is probably a fixed habitat for these lakeside birds. They may have occupied this site for hundreds of thousands of years, or even longer, which means they will be here almost every day. Boss, you can imagine that after a long period of time, the amount of bird droppings on this land has accumulated layer after layer. After years of accumulation, these bird droppings reacted with some geological elements to generate these Guano phosphate rock!”

Listening to Parker's explanation, Wang Lu probably understood what he meant.

Does this mean that he is currently stepping on a pile of old bird droppings?

Parker also immediately revealed another statistic that surprised Wang Lu:

"According to our detection, the depth of these guano phosphate rocks is about twenty or thirty meters..."

Good guy, Wang Lu called him a good guy.

After calming down, Wang Lu probably accepted Parker's statement, and then asked the question he was most concerned about:

"Parker, how much is this so-called guano phosphate rock worth? Isn't it just a pile of feces?"

"Of course not, boss. In fact, the value of guano phosphate rock is quite good. Maybe you have heard of the name Nauru before?"

Nauru?

Wang Lu briefly recalled it, and he had some impressions. It seemed that it was just a small Pacific island country with a small population. However, Wang Lu's impression of this country only ended there, and he didn't know anything else about it.

I know this because Wang Lu casually caught a glimpse of some information about this country when he was planning a round-the-world trip for his family.

Seeing Wang Lu's answer, Parker immediately said excitedly:

"Nauru is the world's most famous producer of guano phosphate rock. Eighty percent of this country's land is covered with a large amount of guano phosphate rock. Relying on this mineral, their per capita income increased in the last century. That’s as much as $50,000!”

Wang Lu was stunned when he heard the figure of fifty thousand US dollars. Even if the unit behind it was not US dollars, in this day and age, Nauru could still be called a country with a good economy, not to mention that the unit after it was US dollars. , the time is still the last century.

"The value of guano phosphate rock is that it is a high-quality agricultural fertilizer. It is rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other elements necessary for plant growth. It can improve soil fertility, increase crop yield and quality, and is purely natural. Organic fertilizer does not contain any chemical elements, which is its most valuable feature.”

Parker excitedly talked about the uses of these guano phosphate rocks, and his whole body became very excited.

Wang Lu was also greatly surprised when he heard this. This was like a knife in the butt, which opened his eyes.
