The Road to Slaying God
Chapter 295 Pirate Base Construction Starts!
"If we want to be so big that all pirates want to give us face, then we must have an intelligence system that can read, and we must have our own money laundering channels, and of course, we must have our own training base. You won't Let a group of fishermen who only know how to use AK47 drive a speedboat to become pirates, right? You wouldn't drive a speedboat aimlessly in the sea to find targets?" Zhang Yang said lightly.
Embleton fell into silence for a while. Although he was a pirate, he was just an ordinary pirate who carried out orders. He had never thought that being a pirate would bring so much knowledge.
"First of all, we have to establish a territory. In this territory, no matter what happens, we are the ones who decide. No matter how big the power comes here, we must nod. If we just kidnap a few oil tankers and cargo ships in the sea, then Sooner or later, we will be wiped out by others. From now on, our power will be within a radius of 200 kilometers. Can you do it?"
"Ah...this...this...there are many tribes and armed people..." Enderbulton was shocked and stammered. He didn't expect this young man to have such great ambitions.
"We have money, we have people, we have things that they don't have, so we can do it. We have to monopolize the mines here and the resources here. For example, you said, there is beryl and gypsum here, we can To introduce foreign capital for development, we can go through the legal procedures with the local government. Without our approval, no one can dig out a stone here..."
"We are not only engaged in piracy, we also engage in trade, we also develop the resources here, drive the economy here, and guide the people here to get rich. Piracy is just a sideline business, not the main business. Piracy is just a channel to provide us with funds. Rather than our ultimate goal, what's more, in the Somali waters, many [***] ships are gathering for escort. It is no longer so easy to kidnap oil tankers and cargo ships. Being a pirate is only temporary!
"..."
…
Zhang Yang's words were sensational. He drew a huge blueprint for the village. Not only Enderbulton listened with enthusiasm, but also several of his cousins listened with enthusiasm. If it can really be done To the point that Zhang Yang said, there is no doubt that their status here will be as high as the sky!
"Okay, today's meeting ends here. Today, you go out and gather some folks to understand some actual situations and see what urgent problems need to be solved here. Also, don't reveal that our goal is to be pirates for the time being. I think, even if It's about becoming a pirate, it should be a few months later, and we haven't established an intelligence system yet. By the way, you are back home now, and your former boss is dead, will anyone doubt you?" Zhang Yang asked.
"Definitely. Everyone knows that I am rich now. Even if I didn't do it, some people will associate the matter with me. However, there is nothing to worry about. In Somalia, as long as there is power, no one dares to do anything to anyone. So, what's more, I am now in my own tribe, and our original pirate organization is a decentralized organization. No one will avenge him. In Somalia, no one will die on that day?" Enderbulton is a little more courageous. Don't take it seriously.
"Very good. Don't leave the village for a while. If someone takes revenge, during this period, stay out of the limelight. In addition, discuss with Uncle Li more. He will cooperate with you on things here in the future." Zhang Yangchao The old man nodded. This sentence was undoubtedly a delegation of authority.
"yes!"
Embleton hugged the old man enthusiastically, but the old man was very reserved and dignified, which made Embleton a little embarrassed.
After the meeting, everyone went about their own business. The old man began to patrol the Kuai territory, began to measure some land, and called his satellite phone from time to time. He didn't know what he was doing, while Zhang Yang and Aze and Liu Biao wandered around the village together.
"Zhang Yang, are you really prepared to develop here for a long time?" Liu Biao asked.
"Yeah." Zhang Yang stared at the field.
"Is it necessary?" Liu Biao said, smacking his lips.
"Don't you think it's good to be a local emperor here? Think about it, here, you can do whatever you want, there is no morality, no law, you can establish your own power, your own territory, you rule here like a king , every word you say will be implemented and treated as an imperial edict..."
"But but... we are too poor here. We can only invest, but apart from being pirates, there is almost no return..." Liu Biao said depressedly.
"Poor?" Zhang Yang couldn't help laughing and said, "Is Somalia poor?"
"Aren't you poor?!" Liu Biao glanced at the dilapidated houses around him and said with a frown.
"It seems that you don't know much about Somalia. Somalia is not poor. You just heard that this village alone has two expensive minerals, beryl and gypsum. In fact, Somalia is very rich in minerals, including iron, tin , manganese, tungsten, nickel, chromium, magnesium, zinc, aluminum, uranium, quartzite, beryl and gypsum, etc. In addition, there are oil and natural gas. Except for beryl and gypsum, most of the mineral deposits are undeveloped. Fishery resources Rich, even if we are unable to develop those minerals, as long as we monopolize the nearby fishery, it will be enough for us to earn..."
"Gypsum, just by the name, you know it's worthless. Don't even think about those metals. Even as a layman, I know that it's not a small investment to dig up those metals. By the way, what is beryl?" Liu Biao still said He lacks interest. What he likes most is to kidnap oil tankers for quick money, or preferably to rob banks. This kind of investment has a long return period and he is not interested in it.
"Beryl is a type of gemstone. Before the last century, beryl was only regarded as a gemstone. Later, people discovered that beryl contained the rare element beryllium, and it became a mineral with industrial uses. It has good quality. Beryl is a very precious gemstone. In addition, the gypsum you mentioned is not useless, but very useful. Gypsum is the main raw material for the production of gypsum cementitious materials and gypsum building products. It can be used to make gypsum boards and fiber gypsum boards. , decorative gypsum board, gypsum hollow strips and gypsum blocks...very versatile..."
"...Gem..." Liu Biao's eyes glowed with golden light.
"Haha, don't think about it for now. The investment cycle of these ores is too long. It is impossible for us to invest in these. However, we can wait until we control this place to get the mining rights from the Somali government, and then sell the mining rights. Provide protection to some domestic investors and businessmen." Zhang Yang knows very well that no matter how powerful his power is here, there is always a legal puppet government in Somalia. As long as he gets the approval of the government, he can Unscrupulous and justified in plundering resources here.
"What a great idea. When the time comes, we'll get paid just by sitting down. Quack... Zhang Yang, what are you doing?" Liu Biao saw Zhang Yang take out paper and pen from his bag and keep calculating something.
"This is our first base area, so we need to gain the support of the local people. Otherwise, there will be restrictions on everything we do. The best way to win the hearts of the people is to do something visible to them, such as making this Repair a simple road, install a simple water conservancy system, maintain the collapsed power lines here, and restore satellite TV. In fact, these things don’t cost much, but they can improve the lives of local people. Well, there is also running water. We need one here. Water plant..." Zhang Yang made a note.
"Haha, that's right. After we build the satellite TV base station, we will drag a boatload of outdated TV sets in the country to buy them. ***, we will provide them with the opportunity to make money, and then, we will make money from them. Go... high, high, too high, really high..."
"Smart!" Aze interjected lukewarmly. Liu Biao, who was originally complacent, stared at Aze fiercely as if his throat was being strangled. Unfortunately, Aze had a sharp waist knife in his hand. , emitting an eerie light in the sunlight.
"Haha, that's a good idea. In fact, as long as there is land and mining resources in a place, it is easy to develop. What's more, we can get a steady stream of wealth from the Gulf of Aden to subsidize this place, so if we want to develop, it is also An easy thing. Well, I almost forgot. It is spring now and the planting season is coming soon. It seems that we need to find a way to get some high-quality seeds from the country. If we can control the seeds in Somalia, then we will almost control the entire Somalia. , we will let domestic high-quality seeds gradually replace Somalia’s traditional cash crops. By then, no matter what tricks Enderbulton wants to play, they will not be able to escape our hands..."
A cold smile flashed across Zhang Yang's face. Allowing China's high-quality seeds to replace another country's cash crops will undoubtedly choke the country's throat. In many countries, in order to avoid being controlled by other countries' food sources, they would rather have low yields. Do not dare to import high-yielding seeds.
In fact, the Chinese government has regarded high-quality crop seeds as a strategic material.
If some smuggled seeds come over and slowly replace them, and local farmers have tasted the benefits and cannot control this place, the source of seeds will be cut off, and the economy here will immediately fall into a state of collapse... and Enderbourne are completely mutual. Make use of relationships, Zhang Yang utilizes the power and human resources of the Enderbulton tribe, and of course, includes enough room for development. Enderbulton, on the other hand, used the funds provided by Zhang Yang to strengthen himself and seek the greatest benefits for the tribe.
Zhang Yang cannot check and balance Embleton, and Embleton does not need to check and balance Zhang Yang. Therefore, Zhang Yang must find something to check and balance Embleton from some interests. For example, the control of seeds, investors of minerals, informants at major ports, and intermediaries in negotiations all need to be directly controlled by Zhang Yang. Enderbulton must be made to feel that without Zhang Yang, he cannot move forward at all... Of course, there are too many things that need to be considered by Zhang Yang. He also needs to register countless shell companies around the world, provide legal passports and documents for this group of pirates in Somalia, provide legal channels for himself to launder money, etc.
Many things will naturally be done by the old fox, the old man. For him, he is familiar with these tasks. As long as he has money, he has many ways.
It wasn't until two o'clock in the afternoon that Zhang Yang completed the inspection of this village with a radius of more than ten kilometers. The entire village had been drawn into a map in his mind. Of course, Zhang Yang's ambition could not be limited to these ten square kilometers. The key is , now that we don’t have enough financial resources, we can only focus on this village and slowly radiate.
When the three returned to the big house, Embleton was standing outside the house with forty tall black youths. It was very crowded and seemed to be lecturing, while the old man was sitting on a chair holding a teacup.
Zhang Yang and the others could see that these forty people were extremely excited. They all looked at the four black men in crisp suits standing behind the old man with great envy. These four black men were exactly the four guys who walked barefoot at night. , the old man has been taken under his control, and now, the four of them are role models for the entire village.
Seeing these forty young black men who were about 1.8 meters tall, he was overjoyed and ran over to look at them in circles. Of course, Liu Biao didn’t know that in this fast land of Africa, due to racial and nutritional issues, it was difficult to find people who were 1 meter tall. It was not easy to find eight people. In order to find these forty people, Enderbulton almost went through the entire tribe before meeting Liu Biao's request satisfactorily. Moreover, almost half of them were less than 1.8 meters tall.
Liu Biao naturally didn't take it seriously. The one-meter-eight-meter requirement was just a vague concept. For Liu Biao, just walking out and being followed by a few black men wearing sunglasses and black suits was enough. It's cool.
Soon, Embleton handed over forty black youths to Liu Biao.
Zhang Yang called Embleton aside.
"This is a main road in the village that needs repair. Starting tomorrow, you will organize labor in the village to repair the road. Repair a rough prototype first. Later, when conditions permit, use mechanization to process it, or simply build a cement road. Well, these The labor force is calculated at twice the wage rate here and will be paid by us. You register the amount of work done. After the work is completed, let them collect their wages from Uncle Li. By the way, the wages can be paid every day, do you understand?" Zhang Yang took out In the notebook, draw a few lines in the first few places to record.
"Ah... why are we building roads?" Enderbulton was stunned. He had never thought about building roads. In fact, what he thought most about was quickly amassing wealth instead of spending money.
Zhang Yang couldn't help but sigh. Although this person was a character, he was short-sighted and selfish. However, this reassures Zhang Yang that this kind of person is easier to control.
"We have to look further ahead. As a member of the tribe, don't just think about how to get rich. You have the obligation to lead your tribe to prosperity and to make everyone in the tribe get rich. A small number of people, understand?”
"Understood..." Enderbulton looked ashamed and looked at Zhang Yang with more respect. Only then did he really believe that this Asian really wanted to help him and his tribe.
"In addition, as soon as the road is open to traffic, the construction team will be summoned immediately. We need a closed area as a training base and ammunition storage, and there must be underground buildings. I have seen it today. The wasteland on Nayi Mountain is very good, and the view is very good. Okay, easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is also included in the training scope on the top of the mountain. Building a watchtower... Well, you can ask Uncle Li about these. He will tell you how to do it. You can contact the building materials later. I can't stay here. How long, I hope that when I leave, all the projects will be started. It doesn’t matter if they are expensive, the money will be made by your tribe anyway, the key is speed, speed! Do you understand?"
"Understood!" Embleton nodded heavily. At this time, he completely believed that this taciturn young man really had a long-term plan.
"Let's do it now. Time is very tight. By the way, do you have any channels to contact the pirates who kidnapped the Siberian Oil Company tanker?" Zhang Yang asked.
"There are... there are three ships available. The boss of the ship we kidnapped is dead. We don't know what the situation is yet." Embleton hesitated and said.
"Well, you contact these three tankers first. As long as these three tankers are taken care of, the remaining one will naturally come to us. You tell them that we can pay 1.8 million first, as long as they agree to pay. , our money will arrive immediately.”
"But what if they don't release the ship?" Embleton asked worriedly.
"Is there any precedent of not releasing the ship after receiving the money?" Zhang Yang said lightly.
"No……"
"Then what are you worried about? If anyone doesn't pay, we can just find an excuse to deal with them. Whether the crew members die or not has nothing to do with us. All we need to do is let them release the ship. That's it, go and do it!"
"yes!"
Looking at Zhang Yang's cold gaze, a chill ran down Enderbulton's spine, and he quickly saluted and walked out. This was the first time he heard someone say that it didn't matter whether the crew members died or not.
Enderbulton never dreamed that the relationship between Zhang Yang and the president of Siberian Oil Company was just a casual transaction, and no one took it seriously.
For Zhang Yang, he just wants to rely on Siberian Oil Company to break a gap, a gap to act as an agent. If this business is settled, Zhang Yang can cooperate deeply with Siberian Oil Company. At least, all the kidnapped oil tankers will believe him. The pirates will believe the weight of what they say. This is the real core interest... "Old man, how do you feel?" Zhang Yang glanced at Liu Biao, who was checking the physique of the forty people, and sat down with the old man. asked beside him.
"Yes, very good. The best condition for this place is poverty. Because of poverty, there are almost no force activities. Although there are also small groups of armed forces, it is easy to deal with them. After all, now we We have received support from the tribe, but now there is a very big problem, that is, we are still nearly 20 kilometers away from the coastline, so we need to build two bases, otherwise we will not be able to control it. In Somalia, The water route is more important than the land route. We must control the nearby sea areas, otherwise, we can't do anything..." The old man took out a hand-made map. It looked very old, and it was probably the map of this place.
"Then build a road from here to the seaside. However, the project is too big, twenty kilometers." Zhang Yang sighed, and the money was like running water.
"Well, I have already considered this. Now, the most important thing is to gain the loyalty of the people here and brainwash those young people. Therefore, I will be very busy recently. Look, look at them..." The old man pointed to that The forty young black men said: "It is actually very easy to train them into qualified bodyguards. It is nothing more than teaching them some grappling and fighting, and I don't expect to rely on them for protection. However, the key is to teach them etiquette. Now they are all country bumpkins. It will only be embarrassing if you take them out..."
"That's right... we need to be brainwashed and taught some etiquette..." Zhang Yang was convinced. If he really took this group of people as bodyguards to travel around the world as Liu Biao said, he would probably be laughed to death. At the first sight of this group of people They are African farmers who have never seen the world. As for brainwashing, this is the most basic method, just like a pyramid scheme.
"Hey, the task is heavy... By the way, how long will you stay here? This place needs time... The living conditions are so bad now. It's not convenient to even take a shower..." The old man was a little depressed.
"Haha, I just informed Enderbulton and asked him to call on the tribesmen to build the road tomorrow. He is already purchasing building materials. It is estimated that you will be able to live in a new house in less than three months." Zhang Yang smiled.
