"I'm afraid the transit road is difficult,"

Cao Mo pushed the car door and went to the ground, and Lucy, who was in charge of the security affairs consultant and the general logistics and financial work of the security company, came over and talked about what Cao Mo was thinking about on the way just now.

"I've talked to Nago Kelent a few times, and he still insists that just a simple road to Lunta is built, and even if Benin gets it, Kanem won't be taken seriously, and I don't know how long the work will drag on before it can be advanced. ”

As the Vice-President of the National Assembly of Benin and the President of the Movement for Democratic Regeneration (Mouvement démocratiath), the second largest party in Benin, Nago Kellent is one of the top 10 political figures in the small country of Benin.

Willie Keller's cocoa plantation in Aguta has always been close to the Conello Foods' purchase of a cocoa plantation and the cocoa plantation in tens of thousands of acres of woodland southwest of Aguta.

Cao Mo wanted to build a new transit road between Lunta and Oguta, mainly through Willy Kelent, to lobby Beninese agencies and officials.

However, such a transit road, which anyone with a discerning eye can see to be beneficial to both countries, has not been built for thirty or forty years after the two countries have been freed from colonial rule.

This time, Cao Mo can easily get the support of the two key states of Oyo and Ogun in Kanem, mainly because the Conero Marina New City and the Lake Conero Industrial and Lake Bay Industrial Park will directly benefit from the planned transit road, and these two states have high hopes for the development of the Conero Marina New Town, the Conai Lake Industrial Park and the Huwan Processing Park, and need to have a more complete land road network to radiate to the wider West African region.

At this time, Cao Mo was seeking to take over the construction of the new Cornello Marina City, and the transit road had to be built.

Cao Mo didn't want to spend too much money for the time being, so he thought about building a simple road first, connecting the winding mountain roads paved for the construction of hydropower stations on both sides, and opening up the connection between the coastal areas of the two countries first.

Benin, as well as the cantons of Oyo and Ogun, which are most closely related to the transit road in Kanem, have their own plans.

They thought that since Tianyue's Yibogu Mining and Conero Foods were the direct beneficiaries of this transit highway, and Cao Mo stood up to promote this matter and promised to bear most of the construction funds, they simply asked Cao Mo to fund the construction of a high-grade highway.

This transit road passes through the mountains of southeastern Benin, and the terrain is nothing in front of the Chinese construction team, but in West Africa, where the foundation is weak, it can be said to be quite rugged; along the way it crosses an area of thousands of square miles of tropical rainforest, dense streams and rivers, difficult construction, bridges, roads, and other investment.

Just to build a simple road connecting the two wings of the winding mountain, maybe 30 or 40 million yuan is enough, and Cao Mo will pay for it.

However, if we follow the high-grade highway standards proposed by Nago Kelent and others, the investment will have to increase by at least 20 or 30 times, and without 6 or 700 million yuan invested, there will be no way to produce a slightly more decent high-grade highway.

Cao Mo subconsciously felt that there was nothing to talk about, how much liquidity did he have in his hand, and he could toss him a few times after consuming so much at once?

The bodyguards and accompanying staff took the bags of luggage to the high-end rooms in the camp, and Cao Mo asked Xie Sipeng, Xiao Jun, Stari, Zhou Han, and Duganjie, Xiao Kuski, Oulu and others who had arrived in advance to sit down on the terrace in front of the wooden house to talk about things.

"If we follow Nago Kelent's proposal, I have also discussed with Mr. Liang about the financing of the construction of the transit road," Lucy sat down and continued to explain the situation, "If the Beninese government comes forward, it can contract the transit road as a BT project to Zhongtu and other engineering contractors to advance funds for construction, and wait for us to participate in the installment repayment of the project after it is completed - this will at least squeeze out the current cash flow of Tianfu!"

Cao Mo frowned slightly.

They have already done some preparatory work in the early stage, but they are all surveying and mapping and designing according to simple roads.

Now to overturn this point and build directly according to the standards of high-grade highways, the route needs to be re-selected.

Not to mention the marathon review and approval process that the two countries could not fast in the early stage, it only takes at least half a year to re-map and design the final draft of the plan, and to take into account the impact on the ecological environment. When we get in touch with the China Soil Group, sign the agreement, and start construction of a large number of engineering equipment, it may take another year and a half.

As a transit road connecting the core areas of the two countries, it is of great significance, and it is not excluded that a group of ecological and environmentalists will jump out against the project, and things will be further complicated.

Of course, funding is also an issue.

"From beginning to end, I just wanted to build a simple road that could be barely passed by trucks," Cao Mo patted his forehead and said with a wry smile, "What I think about is that after this transit road is built, more and more vehicles can pass through it, and enterprises, merchants, towns, and tribes on both sides of this transit road will feel the benefits brought by this transit road, and they will inevitably have more ability. Influential people have enough motivation to stand up and push for the upgrading of this transit road, and when the time comes, it should also be funded by the central governments of the two countries and the regional governments through which the highway passes to build a higher grade road – I don't want to bear the full contribution, and I don't have the obligation to do so. ”

"You still have the idea of throwing a thousand pounds in four or two," Xie Sipeng held his chin and said with a smile, "Then if you want to succeed in this matter, you have to calculate it carefully...... "The transit highway involves multiple departments of the two countries, and any link stuck may end up without a problem."

Cao Mo thought that things could be simplified, and hoped to get through the bottleneck of the last few kilometers as soon as possible, and it would definitely not work to go through the normal procedures with conventional methods.

"Tell me, is there any way to use the power of four taels to pull out the thousand catties of obstacles?" Cao Mo still felt that Xie Sipeng had a lot of ghost ideas, and wanted to hear his opinion.

Although Xie Sipeng is the vice president of Yibogu Mining, he is mainly for the project of the Usan River copper-gold mine, and together with Xiao Jun, he cooperated with Kabuja to stay in Akwa, and regarded the Usan River project as the top priority at present.

"It is still necessary to push Benin and Kanem to have the will to build this transit road, but this matter has dragged on for so many years, and it is not possible to put it in place in one step," Xie Sipeng said, "It is said that there is a secret report that someone is secretly smuggling ivory, gold, precious stones and other goods on a large scale from the designed route of the transit road, and stealing forests across the border, as long as it can push either side to set up anti-smuggling border checkpoints at the border points first, the other side will be forced to set up additional sentry posts on the other side of the border." At this time, both sides have the need to build improvised roads from the sentry post to the rear, and when this step is completed, it will be much easier to promote the border inspection and communication between the two countries at this point, and it can also ensure that no ......time will be wasted."

"This method is worth trying!" Cao Mo also had a sense of openness, Xie Sipeng was in the middle of the rivers and lakes, and knew what means to use to simplify things and push things forward.

For the time being, it may be necessary to use such roundabout means to promote the construction of transit roads as soon as possible, or even if they push hard, it may drag on for three to five years when the two countries reach an agreement.

It's not that Lacey isn't smart enough, she can't think of this, mainly because China's thousands of years of civilization and culture are still very accumulated, and this kind of meticulous work is not her specialty.

Xie Sipeng still had no way to get out of Akwa, so Cao Mo asked Xiao Jun to go to Benin for a while.

Even if Cao Mo didn't have the intention of smuggling, even if a simple road was opened between Oguta and Longta, it would be of great significance;

At that moment, Cao Mo and Xie Sipeng, Xiao Jun and Zhou Han, you and I will finalize the general details, and then let Xiao Jun further improve the plan and assist Lucy and Du Ganjie to implement it......

............

............

When he went to bed at night, Cao Mo was still thinking about the crossing road, and when he woke up in the morning, Cao Mo thought of some details that needed attention, so he called Xiao Jun.

"You Chinese are really bad!"

Stari listened to Cao Mo's phone call half-asleep, her long black and lush hair was spread out, as if a secluded pool was on one side, and she propped her arms on Cao Mo's bare chest and commented.

"How bad I am, you didn't just know it today!" Cao Mo looked at Stari's pure and moving face, her eyes were so deep and bright, the bridge of her nose was straight, her sandalwood lips were ruddy and delicate, and her hard-working but magically fair and smooth body made Cao Mo even more confused;

Cao Mo likes to watch Stari lying on the plain bed sheet, covering her back with only her plump hair, black and white, warm and moist, and her straight buttocks are like a green hill covered with snow, which is fascinating.

Thinking of last night's madness, although Cao Mo was a little sore all over, at this time he felt that he could still help him up and try again.

"......" Zhou Han knocked on the door and walked in, and saw that Stari was just pulling a towel to cover her body, and her slender and round legs were still exposed, which had a kind of beauty that made women jealous.

Zhou Han's body proportion is particularly good, but in terms of absolute height, he is not as good as Song Yuqing, and even less as Stary, especially Song Yuqing's legs are slender and plump, as a woman, she can't help but touch it.

"Your sister just called, there was an abnormality in the tail market of Taihua Group's stock, about more than five million funds, bought Taihua Group in one fell swoop three minutes before stopping trading, and directly made Taihua Group out of a price limit......" Zhou Han took his eyes off Stari's snow-white and charming shoulders.

"What time is it in the country?" Cao Mo asked a little dazed.

"The domestic stock market has just closed. Zhou Han didn't mean to avoid it in front of Starry, so he leaned against the door frame and watched Cao Mo get up and get dressed.

While wearing a shirt, Cao Mo bent down and took out her mobile phone from under the bed, and sure enough, two missed calls were from Jiaying.

Cao Mo walked to the living room outside, sat down at the desk, and looked at the computer screen showing the Taihua stock price and today's time-sharing trend chart of the market, while pulling back Jiaying's phone.

The Shanghai Stock Exchange Index fell below 2,000 points in the first two days of September, and has been falling endlessly since then, without any improvement, but due to the need for Wood Elephant Capital to build a position in the short term, Taihua's stock price has rebounded slightly during this period, and the disk is relatively better.

Today's large-market index is also lethargic, small and medium-sized retail investors and institutions are extremely sluggish in their willingness to trade, and the trading volume is also a lot for several days; Taihua's stock price trend today is basically consistent with the market, not alarmed, two cents can play for a day, but in the last three minutes of closing, a thunderclap on the ground, a 20,000-hand buy order directly pulled to the limit.

After that, there were many follow-up buy orders in a short period of time, and there were also many sell orders that were sold in a hurry, but in just three minutes, the vast majority of investors failed to react, and the limit was maintained until the close.

The price of a single share of Taihua is very low, and the total number of 20,000 buy orders is only 5 million yuan.

"Brother, did you see that Taihua was pulled up and down?" Jia Ying answered the phone and couldn't wait to ask.

"Well, I'm watching, what do you think?" Cao Mo asked.

Cao Mo glanced at the time, just twenty minutes had passed since the close of the domestic stock market, and he didn't know if Jiaying and Cheng Xin had time to convene researchers to analyze Taihua's change.

"We just had a small meeting, and we thought that neither Huamao nor the controlling shareholder Xintaihua Investment, nor whether the two of us knew about each other's existence, should not have such an operation," Jiaying said.

"What do you say?" Cao Mo asked.

"Huamao knows our existence, and can even judge the amount of funds in our hands very accurately, even if he intends to prevent us from absorbing funds in this way, he should not delay it for ten days before making a move. And Xintaihua Investment, as the controlling shareholder, can get abnormal data on the first day of our entry, and there is no need for Huamao to drag on for ten days, and then run over and pretend to be a good person-" Jiaying said on the other end of the phone, "For the controlling shareholder, if there are other good hole cards to play in the hand, there is a better way to respond to us, however, the limit has been maintained until the end, and it is unlikely to be an oolong finger ......"

Cao Mo heard Jiaying say that the situation that the Wood Elephant Capital Strategy Analyst urgently analyzed from the market, and asked, "According to your analysis, there is another one that suddenly broke in today?"

"According to our analysis, it should be another company that broke in to stir up the situation, but this approach is too barbaric and incomprehensible — unless there is a management party that is completely irresponsible for the funds in its possession, which is not uncommon in China......," Jiaying said by phone.

"Toot ......" Cao Mo heard the prompt tone of a new call inserted into the mobile phone, and took a look, and it turned out to be Nsange, who had just landed in China in the past two days, calling.

He told Ensanger that after meeting with Han Shaorong, Lu Jianchao, and Lu Yan, he should avoid testing and inquiring about anything, and he should contact him as little as possible, so as not to inadvertently reveal unnecessary flaws.

Nsange had only been in China for two days, and he was in a hurry to call him, what had happened?

Cao Mo interrupted Jiaying and said, "I have an important call coming in, and I'll call you later." ”

After answering the phone, Ensanger said on the phone in Yoruba in a rather surprised tone, "Mr. Cao, what do you think I found when I first arrived in China?"......

"What's the matter that is worth all the fuss you make?" At this time, Cao Mo could of course guess that Ensanger's discovery was related to Taihua's stock price changes, but he was still very cooperative to satisfy Ensanger's show-off mentality, and asked in ignorance.

"You should really turn on the computer and look at the stock price of Taihua Group, oh, it's morning at Kanem, you may still be enjoying in the bed of a beautiful woman, I won't sell it," Ensange said, "I just accompanied Lu Yan and Guo Jian to secretly meet with a Chinese public fund manager to discuss cooperation." In order to show off his ability, just 20 minutes ago, this manager gave an order through his mobile phone in front of us, pulling the stock price of Taihua Group directly to the limit price of the Chinese stock market - I thought that Kanem's securities market was lawless enough, I was really shocked!"

Hearing such a crucial piece of information from Ensang, Cao Mo was also a little dumbfounded.

Nsange is still with Lu Yan and Guo Jian, so he talks to Cao Mo in Yoruba, so he is afraid that he will leak something unintentionally, but it is not appropriate to talk to Cao Mo more on the phone.

"Is there such a bold investment manager in China?" Stari asked, standing behind Cao Mo, listening to the conversation clearly, and was also shocked.

"Not only in China, as long as there is enough profit temptation, there will be people who kill people and set fires, but it is not too bold and blatant, it is just that we have an inside line that happens to know the details," Cao Mo said, "Lu Yan dragged Nsanger to meet this institutional investor, probably also to show Sturgeon and Niz Oppenheimer through Nsanger that they still have a lot of energy in China." And this institutional investor should also regard Ensanger and Guo Jian as a close associate that the Lu family can absolutely trust, so he brazenly shows his skills and strength......

Zhou Han couldn't understand Yoruba, so he asked, "What did Nsange say?"

Cao Mo briefly repeated what he said on the phone with Ensanger and Zhou Han, and said: "Jiaying's analysis is also close to the truth, and there is really a completely irresponsible management party that controls the funds in his hands and is about to enter the market......"

However, it is a little strange that Taihua's financial financing resources in China are directly controlled by Lu Jiancheng, not to mention that after Lu Yan left the UK, he spent most of his time in Kanem, and he was not familiar with Taihua's business in China, especially since he had suffered losses from me and Liang Yuan before, Lu Jiancheng and Lu Jianchao, how could they hand over such an important matter to Lu Yan to discuss?" Zhou Han pondered this news, and always felt that something was very wrong.

"This fund manager, what if it is the that Han Shaorong fed to the Lu family?" Cao Mo frowned and asked Zhou Han, "Do you think this is possible?"

"It's not possible, it must be so!" Zhou Han said conclusively.

They have already discovered that Han Shaorong has been lurking in the Taihua stock, and has even secretly collapsed the stock price of Taihua once, forcing the Lu family to mortgage the bank at a high interest rate - this has also been confirmed by Sturgeon and Niz Oppenheimer - and now there are so many unusual things in this matter, of course, it can be concluded that Han Shaorong fed the Lu family again......
