Chapter 31: The Police (2)

(It's Monday, ask for a red ticket or a monthly pass...... )

Cao Mo asked the miners and villagers to disperse first, and the mine was temporarily suspended today.

Portu, Parry, Sam, Ed, and others brought back to the room the items they had intercepted from the four policemen - Cao Mo, who rarely smoked when he walked into the wooden house, also took a cigarette from Kabuja and placed the gun on the desk in front of the window.

After smoking a cigarette, Cao Mo's thoughts were running normally.

The old chieftain Felician has experienced a lot of ups and downs in his life, and at this time he is quite calm and explains the situation clearly.

These four police officers are indeed the Lunta Regional Police Department, and they have not been targeted once or twice over the years.

They broke into the tribe today, and the old chief Felician took out a few thousand naira as filial piety, but he didn't know where they knew about the gold mines, and they went directly to the mines, but they couldn't stop them.

Fortunately, Cao Mo appeared in time and shot them away.

Otherwise, the old chieftain Felician, who had already weakened his temper over the years, would not have forcefully prevented them from taking their things, and would even have prevented them from making trouble with Ovima.

Owema was even more angry, annoyed that he had easily let the four policemen go, and felt that he should teach them a hard lesson first.

Kabuja looked worried, worried that the four policemen would turn around and come back to retaliate.

The local police station is chaotic, and even if the four police officers don't have real evidence, it is not difficult to return to the police station and issue a search permit, not to mention the possibility that they will continue to trouble them in the future - they will also have a headache when they think about purchasing diesel and other necessary materials for production in the Lonta Market.

Of course, Cao Mo dared to shoot today, directly scaring the four greedy policemen away, and everyone's perception of Cao Mo still had some subtle changes; even ordinary workers and villagers looked at Cao Mo with more awe in their eyes, but they didn't expect him to stand up so bravely and protect the property of the Felician family.

"Owema, Kabuja, you should take Potu and Ed to the Lunta police station to report the crime, saying that four robbers pretended to be police officers and robbed the gold mine and we drove them away......," Cao Mo said to Kabuja and Owema.

Before, he acted more intuitively, but now he has eased up a little and thought more thoroughly.

On the one hand, the four policemen mainly followed inertia, targeting the old chief Felician, estimating that the gold mine production had increased significantly, and especially came to the door to extort money, not against him.

Cao Mo speculated that even if they turned around and wanted to retaliate, they might just find a way to blackmail the old chief Felician and continue to harass the normal production in the mine.

Of course, insisting that there are robbers pretending to be police officers and preemptively reporting the case is also a way for them to take the initiative.

And let Owema, Kabuja, Portu, and Ed report the case, Cao Mo also has a trade-off.

Owema has a short temper and asks him to report the crime, which is to express the tough attitude of this side again.

Kabuja is big and fierce-looking, but he has a calm temperament, and he can work with Botu and Ed to stabilize Owema at critical times and prevent the situation from deteriorating uncontrollably......

The old chief Felician also nodded, and he couldn't think of any way, so he could only let Owema and them report the case first, and talk about other things when the case was reported.

Ovema and the others launched a Toyota pickup truck to rush to Longta Town to report the case, Cao Mo picked up the satellite phone again, contacted Song Yuqing, and directly asked her Zhou Jianmin's contact number.

If things can't be settled and there is a possibility of deterioration, Cao Mo will inevitably ask the consulate to come forward to coordinate.

He is now contacting Zhou Jianmin in advance and reporting it, and he will save time when something really happens, and the consulate will be caught off guard.

"Why did you just get to the mine and urge Zhou Jianmin's phone call, are you not at ease with me?"

Song Yuqing didn't know what was going on in the mine, and thought that Cao Mo was anxious, so she asked about contacting agricultural experts, and said on the phone,

"Don't worry, as soon as you set off in the morning, I contacted Zhou Jianmin. Zhou Jianmin said that the aid project is directly handled by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, and the Federal Government of Kanem, and that Ibogu has such a need, and it is also necessary to apply from the regional government to the state government and then to the federal government, and then make unified arrangements, so that it is impossible for the consulate to bypass the federal government in Kanem and the Oyo State government and directly discuss aid and cooperation with the grassroots. However, China happens to have an agricultural aid project in the Sikaga area of Oyo State, not far from Lunta, and if you want to get technical guidance, the consulate can help you contact them, and you can even select some villagers from the village of Ibogu and send them to the Sikaga project for training......"

Song Yuqing's speech was very fast, and she was also happy that this matter had been completed so smoothly and Cao Mo's entrustment, and she told Cao Mo all the results of contacting Zhou Jianmin, but Cao Mo was stunned and couldn't interject.

"If something happens in the mine, I have to report it to the consulate, and if necessary, I may ask for consular ......protection," Cao Mo said.

"What's the matter?" Hearing Cao Mo mention consular protection, Song Yuqing was startled on the other end of the phone and hurriedly asked.

Cao Mo told Song Yuqing what had just happened, and he didn't care about saving more than $1 per minute in satellite calls.

"What, you shot? How can you shoot, don't say anything else, just like that, the local police will grab your handle and hold on!" Song Yuqing said anxiously.

"I have a license to carry a gun, and it's legal to own a gun, so that's not going to be a handle. Cao Mo said calmly.

Next, Cao Mo obviously heard Song Yuqing take a breath on the other end of the phone, and then was silent for a while without speaking again, he explained:

"I'm sorry, Sister Yuqing, when I went to Draculamo, Guo Jian pushed me out for everything, and the security of Draculamo was really uneasy, so I got a gun license and bought a gun. I don't want to scare you, and Guo Jian was shocked by everything, just arrived in Draculamo, he was afraid of everything, I persuaded him to apply for a gun license to buy a gun for self-defense, and he strongly objected. After that, I applied for my own license to buy a gun, but I simply didn't say it. ”

"Let's not talk about this, let me help you contact Zhou Jianmin, if there is anything, you can notify me in time - by the way, is Guo Jian looking for someone to report you to the Longta Police Station for illegal mining?" Song Yuqing asked.

Song Yuqing's tone was somewhat cold, and Cao Mo thought to herself that he probably had already done the matter of holding a gun license and secretly holding a gun, which shocked her.

Cao Mo has nothing to explain, everyone's perception of others will change at any time, even if a good lover suddenly weakens, it is a common thing, he can still count on Song Yuqing to have an eternal close relationship with him.

Regardless of Song Yuqing's promise to help contact Zhou Jianmin again, Cao Mo did not refuse.

He really needs to keep in touch with the consulate now, and he needs the consulate to be able to pay attention to him, as for asking Song Yuqing to help him this time, he will find an opportunity to thank her back in the future......

Cao Mo put down the phone, and after a while, Zhou Jianmin contacted him through the internal phone number of the Chinese Consulate in Draculamo.

Cao Mo told Zhou Jianmin about the process of shooting the local police away, as well as the fact that he registered an equipment rental company to provide equipment rental and technical support to the Fellician family's Ibogu gold mine.

Zhou Jianmin still felt that Cao Mo was a little reckless when he shot away the policemen who intended to enter the mine to blackmail, but he still recognized Cao Mo's follow-up treatment, and he could take the initiative in reporting the case.

However, things have only developed to this point, and it is not convenient for the consulate to intervene directly.

Zhou Jianmin just said that the consulate would pay attention to the progress of the whole thing at any time, and if Cao Mo really felt that his personal safety was threatened, the consulate would not sit idly by, of course, he also suggested that Cao Mo should leave Yibo Ancient Village first and return to Draculamo.

Where could Cao Mo leave Yibo Village at this time? He could only divert the topic and ask about the agricultural experts.

For the affairs of agricultural experts, Zhou Jianmin felt that Cao Mo could start to do it.

After Zhou Jianmin received Song Yuqing's call, he had already reported this matter to the person in charge of the consulate.

The person in charge of the consulate thinks that this is a good thing for Chinese businessmen to really improve their relations with the local community, and even if there is no direct assistance project for the time being, the consulate will actively help to liaise and promote it.

The consulate still can't help for the time being, but contacting it can always make people feel a lot more at ease.

It was also for the sake of calming the hearts of the old chieftain Felician and Porto, Cao Mo talked to them about building a vegetable farm......
