From arms dealer to king of war
Chapter 534 Crisis 528 Hours
Four hours after Ambassador Cassel entered the city hall, a 50-member extrajudicial team, led by a team of local soldiers, fought their way through the marching people and took the lead in rescuing a man from a French mining giant.
The appearance of these people was simply horrible, and everyone from top to bottom reeked of stench.
The employees of the mining company were escorted to the special operations force base outside the city for temporary resettlement.
The person in charge of the company was escorted to a hotel next to the city hall. After washing up, he was taken into the city hall building. In a conference room, a negotiation was completed under the witness of Ambassador Casso.
When night was about to fall, Ambassador Casso went out to face the media and happily expressed that his communication with the Butembo government and Prime Minister Minam was going very smoothly. The people of the French Mining Company were just the beginning. As a responsible person, Man, he will continue to work hard to save those who are left.
Butembo representative Ngonga said excitedly that the French mining giant had compromised with the Butembo government.
In the future, all transaction settlements of this giant in Congo will be placed in a bank designated by the Butembo government.
And starting today, these mining giants will fulfill their corporate responsibilities.
Not only should workers’ wages and production safety be increased, but every batch of ore exported in the future will pay a ‘management fee’ to the Butembo government, which can be used by the government to improve the environment in North Kivu.
As soon as the ‘management fee’ came out, the local Congolese media people were shocked!
When did the fifteen countries in Central and West Africa ever get a penny of tariffs from Big Daddy Afika?
The meaning of free trade is that France enjoys duty-free treatment for all import and export trade in the fifteen countries in Central and West Africa.
But now the humble Butembo government has actually torn a hole!
What is this concept?
Although it is only a "management fee" in name, those media reporters with some political concepts understand that this is a "great victory" for the Central and West African countries.
Daddy Afika's compromise came so unexpectedly that everyone found it a bit unbelievable!
The media did not know the role of Boss Qiao in this. Only a few reporters who had been to Sangha Town to follow Princess Emina's reports smelled something strange from some soldiers wearing lion armbands... …
But no matter how much they inquired, no one was willing to tell.
No one knew that Ambassador Casso, who seemed to be here to rescue the hostages of the mining company, was actually lobbying the mining giants to get them to agree to the Butembo government's conditions.
When the French mining giants take the lead in surrendering, what can the rest do?
These mining giants have actually invested a lot of money in North Kivu, and it is not difficult to agree to the conditions of the Butembo government, because once the situation becomes safe, the security costs they save can completely offset the so-called " management fee'.
What really hurts are the mid-sized mining companies that bought the minerals at low prices and then supported the warlords to exploit them.
There are only two choices before them. One is to follow the example of those giants, invest large sums of money to build mines, and then place transaction settlements in designated banks, and pay 'management fees' after producing output.
The second is for the Butembo government to fund the recovery of ownership of those minerals, and then liquidate and get out.
This time, the French Mining Company took the lead. Some of them chose to sign an agreement to ensure that the minerals would be developed in accordance with the standards set by the Butembo government.
Some people also chose to liquidate and exit, and soon a fee with a 20% discount on the original price was paid to their designated accounts, and North Kivu Province had nothing to do with them anymore.
With the French taking the lead, the remaining companies had no room for resistance.
The conditions put forward by the Butembo government are reasonable and reasonable. They just ask you to give up supporting the warlord and go mining on your own. Even if you refuse, they will refund you 80% of the cost of purchasing the mine. This is the end of benevolence.
Without the support of a powerful person like Daddy Afika, this matter would be unreasonable no matter what, and even the lawsuit would be unwinnable.
The whole 'rescue' process lasted for 15 days. It was not until the last mining company announced that it had signed a contract with Butembo that the matter came to an end, and then the black brothers who were marching finally dispersed.
At this time, the talents of the mining companies who were trapped until the end discovered that no one cared about them at all.
7+15, a total of 22 days of suffering, made these guys from the leather company so hungry that they were all skin and bones...
In the end, they discovered that no one cared about them...
This discovery caused some people to completely collapse. They rushed to the door of the Butembo government in ragged clothes and launched a protest. They completely forgot how they purchased the ore from the warlords through the black market, let alone how they obtained support through Warlords have caused chaos in North Kivu.
Ambassador Casso seemed to know of their existence for the first time...
When he heard all the demands of the companies, he regretted that discussions with the mining companies were over.
If they are dissatisfied with anything, they can seek help from the local police. The Butembo government is very efficient and fair, and I believe they will be given a satisfactory explanation.
Those people in the leather bag company couldn't believe it. In the past, they thought they could control the situation in North Kivu, but when Butembo made up his mind to establish order, they found that they were actually insignificant at all.
Once they are cut off from outside warlords, a small policeman can take them to the police station with a straw rope.
There is a saying that 'no business, no harm'. If there were not these leather bags companies running around, there would not be so many chaotic gangs and warlords in North Kivu.
They were the source of the chaos in North Kivu, and Boss Joe broke their spines as soon as he took action, leaving them with despair and grievances with no way to redress their grievances.
Seeing that there was no hope of 'justice', the bosses of several leather goods companies joined forces and wanted to find warlords to establish an alliance to cause some trouble for the Butembo government.
As a result, when they called, either no one answered the phone, or a pleasant female voice answered. After listening to their request, they were asked to leave their address and wait for a reply.
Before these bag company owners who were trying to cause trouble could realize what was going on, several police cars rushed over and surrounded them, handcuffed them politely and took them to the Butembo Police Station. …
These greedy guys had no idea that during the time they were under siege, the legendary 'Anteater Legion' had reappeared.
Old Kaman and a few old monsters, along with 50 P.B. soldiers in different uniforms and a group of artillerymen, walked along the mining route in North Kivu Province and visited the gangsters named in the intelligence one by one. and warlords.
At first, some people tried to resist, but after several batches of unlucky people were skinned and cramped and pushed to the fire for barbecue, no one resisted anymore.
After receiving the 'invitation', the warlords, big and small, would usually get in the car and be sent to the military base outside Butembo.
Occasionally, some people try to escape with money, but what they don't understand is that no matter where they hide, shells will come to them.
They didn't even want to throw away their cell phones when they were running for their lives. They deserved to die.
When Qiao Jia saw a group of disgraced warlords in the base, he knew he should have won.
It was originally expected to be chaotic for half a year, but now because Boss Qiao temporarily changed the route, this time has been compressed to one month.
The reason why these warlords are retained is because those minerals really need people to mine, and if they play too hard, it will easily cause unnecessary backlash.
At this time, many people had gathered around Qiao Jia...
The eldest sister, Gami Kopko, arrived with a group of financial elites.
The matter of the Bank of France has been basically finalized. Boss Qiao and Jami each invested US$100 million for a total price of US$200 million to fully acquire a French investment bank with complete qualifications, but its business has shrunk significantly.
But cleaning up the non-performing assets will require Qiao Jia and Jami to fill them with tens of millions more dollars.
Only by ending all those damn businesses and cashing out all the bank deposits can the handover procedures be completed, so it will take some time.
There is still a small problem here, which requires Boss Qiao to go to France to negotiate with key figures in person, but there is no problem in the general direction.
However, the bank has not yet been obtained, which does not prevent Gami from leading people to help Boss Qiao establish a financial company first and intervene in the business integration of North Kivu Province.
A large number of Wall Street and French financial elites found an office in the center of Butembo, hung up the signboard of "P·B Financial Company" and started business.
Said from Dubai came and brought with him Prince Al Thani of Qatar.
Rather than engaging in 'charity' with a group of women in Libya, they were more interested in Boss Qiao's strategizing, and after learning about the bank's plan, they decisively booked their positions as shareholders.
According to Said's original words, "I will give you the money first. I don't care how many shares I can get. Anyway, I only have 100 million US dollars in private money." ’
Al Thani didn't want to steal Said's limelight, so he paid 80 million US dollars each for himself and his sister Princess Emina, preparing to tie her sister to Boss Qiao's big ship and let her shine.
Ambassador Steven got the news on Said's private plane, and then came with him after he demanded a diversion after the plane crossed the Mediterranean.
The ambassador is currently a firm ally of Boss Qiao. According to his words, if Boss Qiao wants to start a bank, how can he not get the support of him and his wife?
Let’s not talk about the shares for now. He and his wife can set up a trust worth 30 million for each of their three children and let Boss Qiao manage it.
This is equivalent to giving Boss Qiao a gift of 90 million US dollars. Although this money needs to be paid with interest, Qiao Jia must receive this favor.
Ambassador Steven's approach quickly attracted the attention of others, and then some guys who thought they had limited funds and were unable to compete for shareholder positions began to invest money into Boss Joe's financial company.
Establishing a trust fund is not something ordinary people can do. When a group of people from the Chinese Mining Alliance were still hesitating, Boss Lu Junlu took out all his private money and the dividends from Dahe Mining to collect US$40 million. Gave it to Boss Qiao’s financial company.
Signed a ten-year agency investment agreement with a fixed annual return of 7%, becoming the first investment VIP.
Finally, when Lu Jun got a promise from Qiao Jia, that is, when the bank settled in Butembo, he would provide them with a US$100 million loan for the construction of the industrial park, everyone finally realized...
Oh damn, can you still play like this?
