Doomsday Super Merchant

Chapter 371 Who is robbing our happiness?

Abdila is very satisfied with the status quo. His monthly salary of US$50 is enough for him to support the entire family's expenses.

Don’t doubt this 50 US dollars. In Somalia, its purchasing power is amazing. It is no problem to basically feed a family of five. For Abdila, his parents are still alive, and he has a wife and a three-year-old child.

The son's own salary can support the whole family. Some of the usual sewing money of his parents and wife has turned into the family's savings.

As long as he thinks of the past days, it is simply a nightmare for Abdila.

A few years ago, Abdila's family was considered a middle-class family, raising a large flock of sheep. Every year when the sheep were at their fattest, someone would come to buy them, and I heard they would be shipped to overseas places.

That day was the happiest time for people in the whole village. They slaughtered a few sheep that were reluctant to sell them to celebrate the harvest.

But war is like a demon that destroys everything. It takes away everything. A large number of young people died in the war. The livestock industry almost disappeared across the country. People in the entire country seemed to be collectively unemployed, depressed and desperate.

It became the theme song and there was no smile anymore.

Abdi remembered that at that time, his dozens of sheep were conveniently used as military expenses for the government army. For the family that was barely making ends meet, the dozens of sheep represented a pillar. Now the pillar has been taken away.

After he left, the whole family collapsed completely.

Abdila's village is surrounded by wasteland. There is no problem in keeping cattle and sheep alive, but it becomes extremely difficult to grow food. At most, corn and potatoes can be grown in small quantities in some areas. However, the geology and climate

The reason is that the yield will be very pitiful, and it will be difficult to even have a full stomach.

After the sheep were used as military expenses, Abdila's family fell into a desperate situation. You know, the whole family relied on the money from the sales of the sheep to exchange for food.

In the past few years, Abdila has been struggling on the verge of death. For the sake of his family, Abdila has worked as a miner, a soldier, and a pirate. As long as he can survive, he is willing to do anything.

But no matter how much he paid, he still couldn't support the entire family by himself.

Until the steel park was established near the village, Abdila was lucky enough to enter it. For him, a change in life, a life like heaven, came.

The salary of US$50 is just a standard among ordinary workers. Abdila understands that as long as he works hard and gets promoted, his salary will naturally increase. Having done many jobs, he understands that in Somalia, there is no such salary.

You can have such a salary.

It was for this 50 dollars that Abdila, who had been a pirate and had killed people, became as docile as a lamb because he did not want to violate the rules of the factory and be fired from the factory and lose his hard-won job.

.

Another thing is face.

Riding a bicycle home from get off work every day, wearing the blue work clothes that are only found in the steel park, is definitely the jealous target of countless people. Yes, working in the steel park is an enviable job. You know, it is basically not available now. We are recruiting workers again. If you want to come in, there is no door.

There are also more than a dozen young people working in the steel park in the village, and they have entered more than a dozen families who live a well-off life. They are the most affluent group of people in the village. Who doesn’t take a high look when walking in the village? It is no exaggeration to say,

In the village, my family is respected by everyone.

Abdila knew that all this was given by the boss and the Steel Park.

Recently, Abdila is very happy. After a year and a half of accumulation, he is preparing to build a small bungalow. The other one is that in the factory, in view of his hard work and hard work, he is preparing to be promoted to the position of team leader. Darling, this

But you can get 70 US dollars per month, which is 20 US dollars more than ordinary workers.

As long as he thinks that his life will get better and better in the future, away from hunger and away from struggling on the verge of death, Abdila's mood is endless satisfaction.

But on this day, when he was walking in the village, a dozen of his colleagues who were in the steel park seemed to be possessed, as if they had completely lost their souls. Abdila was a little strange, so he walked over cordially and took a photo.

I photographed one of the guys named Hassan and said, "Man, what's going on? Have you been fired from the factory?"

Hassan looked at Abdila who was still unaware, shook his head in pain, and said: "No, Abdila, haven't you heard, we are about to lose our jobs."

"What?"

Abdila almost jumped up from the ground and shouted: "What did you just say? We are going to lose our jobs. Why?"

This matter really made it difficult for Abdila to get close to him. The good life he had planned just now and the upcoming promotion were going to be ruined in the blink of an eye? No, it can't be like this. Yesterday, the supervisor made it clear to him

He said, if you want to be the team leader, how can you lose your job?

He asked tentatively: "The work in the factory is endless, how can we be fired?"

Another Sheikha Sheed said: "It's the government troops who want to take over the steel park." At this point, he gritted his teeth and said: "Are these sons of bitches really going to drive us to a dead end? Last time, they will

Our cattle and sheep have joined the army, and this time they will even take away our jobs. They want to kill us."

Abdila had been a pirate and had killed people. With his bloody nature, he suddenly became crazy and shouted: "I haven't settled the debt with them last time. I want to fight with them. Who dares to touch the steel park?"

Just touch me, Abdila, and I will fight them tooth and nail."

Affected by Abdila, everyone else was filled with indignation.

In Somalia, everyone is a fighter, even women and children, who are capable of fighting. The long-term chaos and large-scale civil war have taught them how to shoot and how to protect themselves. It is no exaggeration to say that they

He is kind, but when threatened, he can be bloody.

"How about we join the 'Shabaab' and fight against the government forces."

As soon as this proposal came out, it was directly rejected by the most forgiving Abdilla. He said: "Do you think that the 'Shabaab' is really what they say? Hum, according to me, hearing the government troops

If they want to take away the steel park, they will definitely take advantage of it, so what’s the difference between them and the government troops?”

He thought for a moment and said: "There are also 2,000 security teams in the Steel Park. Why don't we join them? With the government army and these bastards, I don't think they can capture the Steel Park? In my opinion, it's not as good as the Steel Park."

Just forget it. Anyway, we will support whoever can bring us a better life."

Abdila's idea was immediately echoed by others. They were people who had tasted the benefits of the steel park, so naturally they had no idea. At that moment, more than a dozen people returned to the village and took out the hidden weapons.

After coming out, an armed force was quickly formed and headed towards the Steel Park.

People like Abdila are everywhere in central Somalia.

From tribes, to natural villages, to towns and cities. People who heard the news were all incited by a force and took up arms one after another. They were not for others, but for their own happy life.

Resistance, for them, anyone who robs their newly improved life is the target of their destruction.

"You know, someone wants to destroy our livelihood!"

This greeting has become the mainstream throughout central Somalia, letting everyone know that their income is about to be wiped out. No one believes that the transitional government is capable of managing the steel park. No one believes that these weaklings can manage the steel park well.

People like Boss Zhou can pay such generous wages and create so many jobs.

On the outskirts of the Steel Park, a fully-staffed group sent by the transitional government had already arrived at the entrance of the Steel Park.

A group of officials who were supposed to be negotiating were beaten out by Shehade's men. The two sides suddenly seemed to be filled with the smell of gunpowder, with only a spark to detonate. On the wall of the steel park, machine guns were set up.

, aiming at the government troops outside.

The government troops were not to be outdone. More than a dozen pursuit guns were set up, several armored vehicles were in a charging formation, and the soldiers of the entire regiment were all in a fighting state.

As the Minister of Commerce, Jelf originally believed that the Somali citizens were loyal to the government, and a mere Chinese immigrant would not be recognized by them. Nationalizing the steel park was the right time and place.

It is a very simple matter for a government to have its own people and to have a fully organized armed force.

He was even thinking about how much benefit he could get from it. Not to mention much, at least hundreds of thousands of dollars was a certainty.

But what happened was far beyond his expectation. Facing the cold machine gun muzzle on the wall, he realized that he had underestimated his opponent too much. This damn Chinese was able to unite the people of Somalia, and he actually used the muzzle of the gun to

Aimed at government troops.

After being expelled, Zeref must be lying if he said he was not embarrassed. He looked at the rows of armed forces on the wall and cursed angrily: "Are you still a citizen of Somalia? The country is in crisis now. We

We should unite as one. The government only acquired the steel park in order to use the advantages of the steel park to form a stronger army, regain all areas of Somalia, complete a unified regime, and end this warlord separatist situation. Do you want to go against the country?

, destroying the opportunity for the rise of this country in front of us?"

Everyone laughed when they heard Zeref's words. Can the country? Can the transitional government represent the country?

Take a look at Somaliland in the north. Since it declared independence, it has done a great job and its economy has recovered very quickly. It is also the only place in Somalia that has an economic existence. And what about the transitional government? It’s like shit. Even the president and a series of senior officials

They all go to neighboring countries to work. Can this not be said to be exciting?

Moreover, the transitional government forces only controlled the capital, but it was also because a large number of peacekeeping forces and other countries put pressure on the peripheral "Al-Shabaab", otherwise they would all go to neighboring countries. It can be said that the transitional government is just

A joke that exists in name only and is just a fig leaf used by Western European countries to protect their faces.

Shehad was hiding in a completely safe place. He held a loudspeaker and sneered a few times before saying: "Zerf, you weakling. When I came out to mess around, you were still hiding at home sucking milk."

.Go back and tell your master, tell him that if he wants a steel park, let him fly back from a neighboring country, ask our boss for it in person, and hide in the back, how can you truly serve the people?"

Zeref's head was covered with black lines, and he was so angry that he almost went berserk. These people did not take the transitional government seriously at all.

I'm afraid Zeref doesn't know that a large number of Somali people are gathering towards the capital with their weapons. The people in the capital have already begun to riot, even after they have gathered, they are ready to move.

The Al-Shabaab fighters also wisely stopped all their movements.

Just kidding, if you still don’t understand, look at the tens of thousands of people on the road. Although I am called a soldier, in Somalia, where everyone is a soldier, I don’t think that my marksmanship is more accurate than that of an old woman.

.

What's more, intelligence says that the number of people rioting this time has reached hundreds of thousands, and they are desperately rushing towards the capital. If people like me are really blocking it, aren't they helping the transitional government? This kind of thankless task

Only a fool can do such things.

The poor government offices in the capital were surrounded by layers of people.

As long as something goes wrong in the steel park, not to mention that the 30,000 workers inside will lose their jobs, the hundreds of large and small factories and workshops in the surrounding areas will also suffer. Just like a chemical reaction, the capital, which relies on the consumption of tens of thousands of workers, will also suffer.

More hawkers and businesses will be greatly affected.

It can be said that the Iron and Steel Park is a tinderbox that affects the whole body.

But it was already too late for the transitional government to understand. Even if they stopped now, it was already too late. Because what they encountered was not a businessman who kept his status quo, but a businessman with huge ambitions.

What he needs is the moment the government loses its mind and gives him an excuse.

Unfortunately, the leaders of the transitional government are all in neighboring countries, so how do they know the true situation of the steel park? Their decision was only influenced by officials in the capital, and thus they made this plan without careful consideration.

Isn't this like a conspiracy, using capital officials to push them and let them issue orders?
