the next day,
Fardan County.
Due to its proximity to the desert, barren land, and lack of water resources, Fadan County is only a small county with a population of less than 50,000.
And there is a constant outflow of people.
If nothing unexpected happens, Fadan will become an empty city in more than ten years and will eventually be buried in the dust of history.
“Woo-”
The strong wind rolled up the yellow sand and rustled the date palm trees, scaring away yesterday’s blue sky and white clouds.
An unknown bird struggled to hold on in the air.
It flapped its wings vigorously, but was still unable to advance even one centimeter. It had no choice but to compromise and landed on the second-floor window sill of a house.
Through the window, you can see several oily middle-aged men sitting on the sofa in the room.
Their upper and lower lips kept colliding, and the hands holding the cigars kept making gestures, as if they were communicating something intensely.
Due to the distance, the sound was like a mosaic and couldn’t be heard at all.
“Chirp…”
The little bird jumped a few times and got a few centimeters closer to the glass of the window.
the sounds in the room,
It has finally become high-definition and uncensored, so anyone who is not deaf can hear it.
“Bullshit freedom and democracy are all excuses. Anyone who is not blind can see that France is behind this war.”
“You mean, Sankara might lose the war?”
“It’s not possible, it’s 100% sure to lose!”
“Puch… weren’t the anti-government forces supported by France? In the end, they were eliminated by Sankara’s troops.”
“This will be different. France may end up personally. If they are beaten urgently, then, no matter how powerful Sankara is, can he beat the French?”
“Then can we make some preparations in advance now?”
Just as they were discussing in full swing, a fat man wearing gold and silver walked in with a cigar in his mouth and directly jumped into the topic:
“Aren’t we just preparing now? In my opinion, France will definitely end, but Sankara will not lose in a short time. This war will become a protracted war.
Let me ask you, once the war becomes a protracted war, for us in Burkina, the price of what will skyrocket and make us make a lot of money? ”
“Steel?”
“oil?”
“rifle?”
“bullet?”
Everyone in the room gave their own answers.
Hearing these irrelevant answers, the fat man was speechless. He sat down on the sofa, crossed his legs and asked:
“These things you are talking about will indeed become very expensive in time, but what does it have to do with us country people?
Is it possible that some of you are smelters of steel? Or for oil? Or do you have an arsenal at home? If you really did this, you wouldn’t be sitting in this room today. ”
“Well……”
There was a trace of embarrassment on everyone’s faces.
However, their faces were thicker than the city walls, and they quickly replaced their embarrassment with flattering smiles.
Strong curiosity, or greed, drives them to eagerly want to know the answer to the question:
“Barrier, just tell me what it is that can make us a lot of money!”
“We really can’t guess it, just say it!”
“Our stupid brains are really no match for yours. Even the sons you gave birth to are so smart!”
“That’s right, how can we compare with you? Just tell us quickly!”
Under the power of money, everyone began to belittle themselves and elevate Barrie.
If reality didn’t allow it, they wouldn’t even mind kissing Barrie’s butt with their mouths, as long as it made them a lot of money.
Barrie felt so comfortable being licked by everyone that the corners of his mouth were raised to the sky. After continuing to enjoy it for a while, he calmly said:
“The answer is food!”
“food!?”
“Can this make a lot of money?”
“you sure?”
Everyone was very surprised and somewhat disbelieving.
Seeing the disappointment on everyone’s faces, Barrie did not feel any panic, but continued to explain with a smile:
“As you all know, we in Burkina used to earn North African francs mainly by exporting cotton to France. Therefore, the land growing cotton once occupied more than 80% of our country’s arable land.
Only veryA small part of the land was used to grow food or other crops. Farmers basically had to buy food, and there was no stock at all.
This year, although the government intended to guide the planting of food, it even went so far as to directly distribute the land of landlords to farmers in order to increase food production.
However, only more than two months have passed since this year, and crops such as rice seedlings have just been planted in the fields, and the harvest will have to wait until July and August.
As long as we take out all the money now and hoard enough food, after two or three months of the war, when the government has no food, we can sell it to farmers at ten times or even more than ten times the price!
The most important thing is that we don’t have to worry about farmers having no money to buy. Didn’t the government just distribute land to farmers? We can let them exchange it with land!
Moreover, these lands have been planted with food, and we can harvest them as long as we wait for another month or two. After the harvest, we can sell it at a high price. This way, we can make a lot of money! ”
The words had just landed.
“Hiss…”
Everyone was shocked and took a breath of cold air. The room, which was a little chilly, became much warmer in an instant.
But soon.
Someone asked about their concerns and pointed out the loopholes in Barrier’s plan:
“But… doesn’t the government not allow private land transactions? If we do this, we will be shot directly? Making money is good, but we also have to live to spend it!”
Hearing this person’s words, Barrier not only did not frown, but laughed even more wildly:
“Hahaha… government? What government? July and August! By then, the person sitting in the president’s position may not be Sankara anymore!”
“Yes!”
“By then, France would have driven Sankara out of power!”
“Why didn’t I think of this?”
“You are worthy of it, Barrier! ”
Everyone suddenly realized, and the worry on their faces instantly turned into ecstasy.
At this moment,
They seemed to see a mountain of North African francs in front of them!
However, before they could be happy for a few seconds, an officer in military uniform walked into the room and sneered:
“I don’t know whether the president will still be President Sankara at that time, but you will definitely not see it, because you are dead now!”
Behind the officer was a group of fully armed soldiers.
Then, the officer took out a piece of paper with a red seal from his pocket and said as if sentencing him to death:
“Adile Barrier, in the name of the National Security Council, I formally arrest you for supporting terrorism, intentional homicide, and endangering national public security. This is an arrest warrant signed by the Intermediate Court of Bugani.
As for the few of you, although there is no arrest warrant, come with us!
Our National Security Committee has the right to ask you to sit in the police station for 24 hours without any reason. Whether you can come out after 24 hours depends on whether you have committed any crime!
By the way, Bariye, I almost forgot to tell you that if it weren’t for your wife, we would not have noticed you at all and would have handed you over to the police because you are not worthy!
You are so lucky to have such a good wife! “
