Doomsday Super Merchant

Chapter 432: A way to make a big difference with just four ounces

Walking to the streets of Berbera after dark, except for a few lights in the most prosperous North District, the South District is completely dark and silent.

As an important city in Somaliland and an important port city that generates 85% of the tax revenue. In Zhou Yuanqiang’s impression, it is the same size as a poor county in the mainland. In terms of construction, it may not be as good as a poor county. At least in the mainland, the government

The building is enough to kill all the buildings in Berbera instantly. Because Zhou Yuanqiang has traveled all over Berbera, the tallest building is only seven stories high, and most of them are one or two-story residential buildings.

The North District is laid out in a grid shape, while the South and East Districts are each housed in a courtyard. If it were not too dilapidated, and with the shade of trees in the yard, Zhou Yuanqiang would almost think it was a group of villas.

The buildings in the south and east districts are scattered, and the land here is so cheap that almost no one questions it.

Beyond Berbera, there is an endless barren land. In many places, there is no grass growing for tens of kilometers, and there is rolling yellow sand everywhere.

After witnessing all this, Zhou Yuanqiang was filled with emotion. The location of Somalia is not good, and what it can rely on for development is the Gulf of Aden. After passing through the Cape of Good Hope from Western European countries, it sails directly to Malacca, and it is impossible to reach it by turning around the bay.

Here, this has made it difficult for Somalia to develop. Coupled with the continuous civil war, it is not surprising that Somalia is ranked among the least developed and poorest countries in the world.

If we really want to change the situation in Somalia, Zhou Yuanqiang has been thinking that if we follow the traditional thinking, it will definitely not work.

If Somalia's livestock industry had not been affected by the civil war, it would still occupy a very important share of exports in the world and has always been Somalia's most dependent source of economy. However, with the advent of war, the livestock industry has been devastated, and comprehensive

Collapse. Although the domestic situation has returned to a glimmer of peace in recent years, the livestock industry has still not been able to recover.

But what if it recovers? Do you expect that exporting millions of livestock every year will improve Somalia's quality?

Think about a frigate, which costs US$2.3 billion. I'm afraid the tax revenue from millions of livestock is only a fraction of US$2.3 billion, right? In addition, agriculture has no effect. Somalia often relies on imported food.

, it can be said to have zero contribution to tax revenue. Ore exports also accounted for a certain proportion before, but Zhou Yuanqiang couldn't think of such a non-renewable resource.

Apart from these, Somalia has almost nothing to offer.

To change the poverty situation in Somalia, it is impossible to rely on traditional industries. In Zhou Yuanqiang's view, the only way out is to pursue high-tech and emerging industries. Only in this way can foreign investment be attracted to this desolate country of Somalia. And all

In the world, only high-tech industries are the most profitable industries.

The other one is my previous goal, which was to become an arms exporting country.

The technological level of the Doomsday Chamber of Commerce is slightly higher than that of modern developed countries, which provides Zhou Yuanqiang with a technological advantage. Moreover, Zhou Yuanqiang may not necessarily be able to acquire scary technologies. Some military technologies in developing countries are enough.

It can meet the needs of most countries in Africa. With my own capabilities, it is impossible to touch high-end arms, and it can only be used for third world countries.

Don't underestimate third countries. Countries at this level occupy the most important arms trade market. If they can capture 20% of the market, the annual arms trade revenue can reach more than 30 billion US dollars.

The existence of neglect.

"His grandma has a long way to go."

When Zhou Yuanqiang thought of this, he no longer wanted to visit the southern area of ​​Berbera. It was deserted here and there were not many cars. He would only occasionally encounter pedestrians in a hurry. Zhou Yuanqiang's makeup skills have reached a superb level.

, walking on the street, no one would think that he is a foreigner. Judging from his appearance, he looks more like a Somali than a Somali.

The Somaliland military camp is located in the eastern suburbs of Berbera and is also the temporary storage location for this arms deal.

Perhaps because there is little interest in black people, only a few American soldiers visited the only red light street in Berbera, while the others stayed on the boats at the pier.

Zhou Yuanqiang did not pay attention to these American soldiers. Instead, he easily took a bicycle, twisted the lock of the bicycle with his hands, and then rode on the road in Xiangdong District. The streets here did not even have street lights, and it was dark.

Huhu, Zhou Yuanqiang doesn't have to worry about anyone discovering anything.

The streets here are in disrepair and are full of potholes. Riding a bicycle is simply a torture.

After more than ten minutes of bumpy ride, we finally left Berbera. After getting on the road leading to the military base, Zhou Yuanqiang just rode for a few minutes, and then left the road and entered the deserted sand. He received the bicycle

in the storage space, and then let go of the speed and ran wildly.

A thick cloud of sand rose up, forming endless smoke, and at a terrifying speed, it brought up a salon, as if chasing Zhou Yuanqiang. But Zhou Yuanqiang seemed to have lost his shadow, and it was completely like the salon was chasing the air. Fortunately, now

It was night, and it was impossible for Sharon to be discovered. Otherwise, with Zhou Yuanqiang's speed, he would definitely shock the world.

That's right, Zhou Yuanqiang's speed is no longer within the human range.

A few minutes later, Zhou Yuan stopped violently, and then used a lurking method to approach a lighted area that appeared in front of him. This is the Berbera military base, where 20 field camps and surface-to-air missile brigades are deployed.

and a tank brigade.

It is said to be a military base, but it is actually just a military camp. It is surrounded by a barbed wire fence, and there are neatly arranged military camps everywhere. If you observe it from a high altitude, you can clearly see the layout of the entire base, through the structure of some simple houses.

, it is not difficult to know their role. In the center of the base, there is a parking area with three Russian-made armed helicopters from the Middle East era parked on it.

Several warning laser lights were fired everywhere, and soon groups of patrols would pass through the barbed wire fence.

Seeing this simple military base, Zhou Yuanqiang almost laughed out loud. In Zhou Yuanqiang's eyes, this should be regarded as a temporary military camp. But who can believe that this is actually the most important place in Somaliland?

A military base? Just from the fact that Somaliland's only surface-to-air missile brigade is stationed here.

After observing for half an hour, I looked at the time and saw that it was only nine o'clock in the evening.

"It's still a little early!"

Zhou Yuanqiang murmured something, then left quietly, searched around, and finally found a small oasis with a few trees, so he took out a carpet and spread it on it, sat on it, and took out some food

, lying on the carpet, eating while looking up at the stars appearing in the sky.

"How long has it been since I saw such a pure sky?" Zhou Yuanqiang asked himself. Compared with the increasingly polluted sky in China, Somalia's zero industrial base has not polluted this sky. Now it seems that it is very pure. The sky is very pure.

The sky is filled with stars, and from time to time you can see clouds passing by under the moonlight.

While eating the food in silence, Zhou Yuanqiang suddenly felt sad and lonely for some reason.

In this foreign country, there is no one around who speaks the same language, so I am alone and struggle for my ideal survival and safety. There are no family, no friends, no lovers, including people of the same skin color. Especially in this night sky

Next, the sad feeling of loneliness made Zhou Yuanqiang feel sad and tears flashed in his eyes.

For some reason, Zhou Yuanqiang suddenly felt very tired. This was not physical tiredness, but mental tiredness.

"Maybe once things here are over, I should go back to China to live for a while. I am like a wanderer far away from my hometown. Although I immigrated, I still have to go back after all. But will I have a real home in China?

With the change of identity, many things will also change, and it is impossible to return to the ordinary life before."

Staying in the small oasis until half past ten, when a whistle sounded faintly, Zhou Yuanqiang knew that it was a whistle for a collective rest.

Standing up, he put the food back into the storage space, picked up the carpet and patted off the sand adhering to it. Zhou Yuanqiang sneered, swept away his sad look, and walked towards the military base step by step.

The temperature here is not much different from that of the apocalyptic wasteland. It will be colder at night and hotter during the day. Especially at night, the wind that blows up from time to time is like a knife blowing. Unfortunately, these have no impact on Zhou Yuanqiang.

, his skin can even withstand bullets, let alone this mere cold wind?

The warning lights are still firing, soldiers on duty can still be seen at their posts, and the patrolling soldiers are still walking along the route.

Zhou Yuanqiang lurked in front of the barbed wire fence, then jumped and silently entered inside. For Zhou Yuanqiang, the base without high-tech layout was completely the same as his own backyard. He easily avoided the patrol team and then appeared.

Before arriving at a dozen simple warehouses.

Probably because of the arrival of a large number of arms, a large number of troops were deployed to guard the place. The lights were bright, and there was no blind spot that the lights could not reach.

Zhou Yuanqiang observed carefully, showed a sneer, took out a set of military uniforms that had been prepared long ago from the storage space, put them on himself, and waited silently. Soon after, a small patrol team appeared at Zhou Yuanqiang's location.

Next to him, Zhou Yuan rushed over with lightning speed, covered the mouth of the last person, and threw him into a corner like a chicken. There was already a corpse.

This series of events was as fast as lightning, and the three people in front of them didn't notice at all that the person behind them was no longer their companion, but a stranger.

The patrol team's patrol position happened to be close to the warehouse area. By virtue of his identity as a patrol team, Zhou Yuanqiang easily deceived the soldiers guarding the warehouse and appeared at the back of the warehouse. He escaped silently.

A patrol team was formed. Zhou Yuanqiang pressed his body against the wall of the warehouse, then jumped and appeared on the top of the warehouse.

These dozen warehouses were connected together. Zhou Yuanqiang climbed on top for a while and finally found a vent.

The vents are welded with iron branches as thick as a thumb's finger. For an ordinary person, even an elite member of the special forces, it may not be possible to remove them without making a sound. But for a pervert like Zhou Yuanqiang, it is impossible to remove them at all.

It's not a difficult thing. I just saw him holding the iron branch with both hands, and the huge strength of his hands slowly deformed the iron branch, and finally it was twisted into a twist, and then torn apart.

Opening the vent, Zhou Yuanqiang easily let the air in through the vent. When he came across the huge exhaust fan, it was even easier. He pressed it with his hand and thought together, and the entire exhaust fan had been stowed away in the storage space.

The vent was ten meters away from the bottom of the warehouse, and Zhou Yuanqiang fell down very lightly.

"It really is here, haha!" Zhou Yuanqiang murmured in a low voice. With his eyes that could almost see at night, he could certainly see that the warehouse was filled with containers, which were the weapons that had just arrived today.

equipment.

Zhou Yuanqiang wanted to open it and take a look, but he thought that his purpose was not to find out what kind of weapons they were, but to swallow this batch of weapons. So he hesitated and began to use his mind to collect the containers into the storage space.

.In just a moment, all the hundreds of containers placed here have entered Zhou Yuanqiang's storage space.

As the saying goes, reciprocity means that when you receive a gift from someone, of course you have to give a big gift in return. So Zhou Yuanqiang put a bunch of explosives in the warehouse again.

Following the same pattern, Zhou Yuanqiang visited all the warehouses in this area and took away everything in the warehouses without ceremony.

"Done!"

Zhou Yuanqiang clapped his hands, and then left through the vent.

After leaving the military base, Zhou Yuanqiang ran all the way and soon left the Berbera military base several kilometers away.

Zhou Yuanqiang stopped and couldn't wait to move the things out of the storage space. Soon, two to three hundred containers appeared in the entire desert, piled up like a mountain.

After choosing one of them, Zhou Yuanqiang twisted the lock with his hand, and then opened it. He took out the flashlight and shined it inside. However, the situation inside made Zhou Yuanqiang open his eyes wide, as if he had discovered a monster.

After staring inside for a long time, he suddenly burst into laughter.

"Damn it, I was saying that with their annual fiscal revenue of 26 million, and the support of more than 30,000 troops and government officials, how could they possibly come up with 3.5 billion U.S. dollars. Even if it is to build Berbera

If the tariff is mortgaged, it will be only 20 million U.S. dollars in tax revenue in one year, only 200 million U.S. dollars in ten years, and only 2 billion U.S. dollars in a hundred years. How can we pay for 3.5 billion U.S. dollars?"

Following the beam of the flashlight, I saw nothing but nothing on the container.

When Zhou Yuanqiang moved, he relied entirely on his thoughts. No matter how heavy the objects were, they were like air. It was precisely this that made him not realize that the container was empty when he first moved. But Zhou Yuanqiang did not think that everything was empty.

The containers are all empty, so the Americans can transport them thousands of miles away. There must be some kind of deal, at least to cooperate with Somaliland in this scene, right?

Just as Zhou Yuanqiang had guessed, after opening several empty containers, Zhou Yuanqiang finally found a launcher in one of the containers with four surface-to-air missiles wrapped in cloth. The entire set of surface-to-air missile launchers was just right.

It takes up most of the space of the container, and the rest is supported and filled with things.

After working hard all night, Zhou Yuanqiang finally finished dismantling all the containers. Looking at the sets of surface-to-air missiles and surface-to-surface missiles, Zhou Yuanqiang became excited.

According to Zhou Yuanqiang's estimation, Somaliland should have spent a lot of money this time. Seventy sets of surface-to-air missiles, that is, 280 surface-to-air missiles. The number of surface-to-surface missiles and anti-tank missiles is also large. This is not an exaggeration.

3.5 billion, but the value of this batch of arms is also about 500 million US dollars, and they are all types of missiles.

Maybe the external announcement of US$3.5 billion is more of a shock to myself!

In fact, Somaliland's idea is very simple, which is to resist Zhou Yuan's powerful national defense force at a small cost.

Didn't you announce your order for 100 fighter jets? I will purchase 280 surface-to-air missiles, plus the base of the surface-to-air missile brigade, more than 300 surface-to-air missiles. You only have 100 fighter jets. Do you dare to challenge me?

?An ordinary surface-to-air missile only costs hundreds of thousands of dollars, and a better one only costs hundreds of thousands of dollars. But just these hundreds of thousands of dollars can ruin your fighter jet worth tens of millions of dollars. Who cares?

Can afford to consume.

Your National Defense Force has a tank unit, and the data shows that it is very powerful? A large number of newly ordered anti-tank missiles, equipped with a large number of troops, are basically military achievements delivered to the door one by one. An anti-tank missile worth tens of thousands of dollars is just

It turns your entire multi-million dollar tank into a steel coffin.

No matter how miraculous you are as the Minister of Defense of the East, no matter how powerful your financial capabilities are, you can't afford to use small things to win big things.

Indeed, with Zhou Yuanqiang's current military strength, Somaliland would indeed not dare to invade Somaliland after acquiring such a large number of various missiles. Once again, the US military's missiles are top-notch missiles even in third countries.

It is definitely not a vegetarian. When the time comes that you want to move Somaliland, you have to weigh whether it is worth it and whether it can break through Somaliland's defense line.

"It's really insidious, and it has the essence of making a fortune."

Zhou Yuanqiang, who wanted to understand this, had to sigh at the shrewdness of the Somaliland people. To use the weak to defeat the strong, they have to hit the seven inches. It is obvious that they have found a way. But they have found the right way, but it is impossible

I expected the ending, because this batch of missiles of various types fell into my hands.

What's even more sinister is that the surface-to-surface missiles are aimed at the Berbera military base in the distance...
