Even though Drake is located in the narrow rainforest of the Gulf of Guinea, the rain decreases significantly between November and May.

No one could have imagined that the heavy rain that began in the early morning and lasted until noon in the Drake area would cause such a large flood to pour into the low-lying areas.

Maye Mantal had accompanied her father to visit the white slum of Drake many times, and she was familiar with everything here, and it was very uncomfortable to see that the entire low-lying area of the slum was drowned in a muddy flood.

At present, more than 200 corpses have been recovered, many of which are skinny and severely malnourished children.

The mainstream media in the West is now dominated by the left, and because of political correctness, they are reluctant to report on the descents of the colonizers in sub-Saharan Africa. So outside of these areas, very few would believe that there are starving white children in today's predominantly white world.

When Maye Mantar arrived at Drake, he first went to the local officials to talk about the disaster relief, but he was ignored, and his heart and lungs were about to explode.

Without the support of the local government, the materials she urgently transferred were a drop in the bucket in the face of the disaster of tens of thousands of sheds being washed away. Everyone believed that she, as the daughter of Juan Mantal, must have a solution to the problem, and countless people gathered around her, but she was powerless.

Although Stari said that Cao Mo would do her best to provide financial support, Maye Mantar did not have any expectations in her heart.

Although the FDD received Cao Mo's funding and support, and assisted the Saweiyi authorities in thwarting the coup plot of Ufu Bonia at a critical moment, and then greatly improved his political status in Akwa, Mey Mantar knew very well that Cao Mo was only doing all this to serve his interests.

Even after thwarting the Ofbonia coup plot and the FDD being able to enter the civilian government of the Saweiyi regime, Cao Mo could not wait to fulfill his business interests.

In the eyes of Mey Mantal, Cao Mo is a mercenary person, how much money and materials can he really come up with to help the refugees affected by the disaster?

In her view, the Chinese have always thought that the suffering of the descendants of the colonizers on this land is deserved, to pay for the centuries-old colonial invasion of this land.

When she arrived at the scene, she saw Stari, Xiao Jun and others directing the people to help the victims evacuate to the higher wasteland, but the camp in the exploration area was still heavily guarded and the victims were not allowed to enter at will.

She obeyed her father's instructions and reluctantly went to see Cao Mo, but she ran out after a perfunctory sentence.

She looked at everything in front of her with worry and discomfort.

At this time, the two off-road vehicles swayed towards this side, and saw Xie Sipeng jump out of the first off-road vehicle - this is another mercenary Chinese businessman.

Xie Sipeng stood on the side of the muddy road and watched the flooding of the riverside for a while, of course he didn't have much sympathy; Xu Ling, who accompanied Xie Sipeng to escort the car over, even felt that Cao Mo was nosy at all, but he already knew that the gap between his status and Cao Mo was too big at this time, and he had a disdainful opinion in his heart, and he would not say it as indiscriminately as before.

Seeing Xiao Jun, Stari and Maye Mantal standing here, Xie Sipeng walked over and asked, "What about Cao Mo?"

"In the camp, I'll lead you over to ......," Xiao Jun said.

"You guys are busy, I'll go find him myself," Xie Sipeng said, "Ah, by the way, I contacted the merchants in Mangba, there are less than 2,000 tents and 30 diesel generators in total, I organized twelve trucks to be urgently loaded, the road from Mangba is too bad, it will be fast to arrive in three hours - doctors are urgently needed here, I brought two doctors and some medicines to rush over first, you look at the arrangement......"

Xie Sipeng pointed to the two off-road vehicles behind, and the people he brought were moving a few boxes of medicines out of the car, waiting for the deployment here.

"That's great......," Xiao Jun said, seeing that Maye Mantal, who couldn't understand the Chinese, looked confused, and explained to her in English that Drake was still no better than Mamba, the largest coal and iron ore production base in Akva, and that the few dozen generators had been sold out by them before, and that the rest of Drake was also seriously affected by the floods, and other supplies were in short supply.

They now want to set up temporary resettlement areas to help the victims, and in addition to tents and food, generators and water purification equipment are indispensable.

As Maye and the others were on their way to Drake, a section of the road and the adjacent railroad tracks were unfortunately destroyed by the flood.

With Akwa's efficiency, they didn't know when the washed-out road would be repaired, so they couldn't purchase much supplies from Drake, so they urgently called Xie Sipeng in Mamba and organized manpower and vehicles to purchase relief materials from Mamba and transport them.

The procurement of relief supplies was also organized in the Kruno region.

"......" Mei Yi opened her lips, but she didn't expect Cao Mo's generosity this time to be far beyond her imagination.

She was still psychologically resistant to Cao Mo, but the matter involved the specific resettlement and relief of the victims, so she couldn't hold back, so she followed behind Xie Sipeng and Xu Ling, and rushed to the camp to see Cao Mo together.

By this time, it was not yet completely dark.

Before dark, the electrical engineer pulled out a temporary lighting line along each of the two sidewalks, powered by two sets of diesel generators, to provide the most basic lighting for the temporary resettlement site to the west and south of the exploration area.

In this way, after dark, the relief and resettlement can continue to be organized, and so many victims of the disaster do not need to flee to the towns in a hurry.

However, the coverage of the temporary lighting lines is limited, and most of the temporary settlements are shrouded in an increasingly dense twilight, and there are shadowy figures everywhere.

Seeing Xie Sipeng, Xu Ling and Mei Yi walking towards the camp, Cao Mo walked over, patted Xie Sipeng on the shoulder with a smile and said, "This ghost weather, the road is also rotten, it's really hard Lao Xie rushed over to help." ”

"It's nothing, but it's refreshing to think that one day we can be the saviors of these white people. Xie Sipeng knew that Mei Yi couldn't understand Chinese, so he joked with Cao Mo without taboo.

Of course, when it comes to some secrets of the security company in Benin, Xie Sipeng did not have the opportunity to be directly involved in thwarting the coup plot of Houff Bonia

However, his relationship with the Front for the Promotion of Democracy has also warmed up rapidly in the past two months.

At present, Xie Sipeng is currently focusing on the mining of placer gold in the Mamba area, which also has great uncertainty, and also has the remaining $7 million in funds after the sale of the ore ship to the Gulf of Guinea Shipping Company and the repayment of the loan.

He wanted to seize a better opportunity for development in Akwa, and he attached great importance to his relationship with the fast-rising Front for Democracy.

Therefore, in addition to Cao Mo's invitation this time, Xie Sipeng himself was also very happy to run this trip.

Besides, Cao Mo made it clear that he would bear all the funds for the procurement of disaster relief materials, Xie Sipeng was just helping to run errands, and he could still brush up his goodwill in front of the Democratic Promotion Front, so what could he not do?

Mei Yi couldn't understand Chinese, couldn't understand Cao Mo and Xie Sipeng's conversation and laughter, and tried to maintain a very patient appearance and stood aside waiting for them to greet first.

"We mercenary businessmen don't have Miss May's sense of justice, but Miss May's sense of justice can't solve the problem......" Seeing that Maye Mantal's attitude had changed before and after, presumably knowing that there were indeed materials being transported from the Mangba Organization, Cao Mo couldn't help but stab her.

May's face was slightly hot, but she still knew that it was important to help the victims, so she turned away with her pretty face, and it was rare that she didn't sneer at each other.

"Miss May, let's go in and talk!" Cao Mo said.

Xie Sipeng saw the hospital tent and asked Xu Ling to come over to help, he could think that Cao Mo was doing these things with great fanfare, it should not be purely out of humanitarianism.

After the rainstorm stopped, the weather quickly became hot.

At this time, there were only two fans whirring in the tent, but the air was still sticky and muggy.

Zhou Han, who was carrying the two financial summary materials of the exploration company, was already sweating in his T-shirt, and his smooth forehead was soaked with fine beads of sweat, and he looked up to see Cao Mo and Xie Sipeng accompanying Mei Yi to walk in, and handed Mei Mantar the list of materials that had been clearly purchased and could be delivered one after another by tomorrow morning, and said:

"Where did Miss May go just now, I was looking for you - these supplies were all brought over tonight, Miss May, how do you arrange it......?"

Maye Mantar glanced at Cao Mo suspiciously.

Cao Mo said: "I spoke with Mr. Mantar on the phone, and I will provide the necessary supplies as much as possible, but as mercenary businessmen, we should interfere as little as possible in the domestic affairs of the Front for the Promotion of Democracy and Akwa......

Although Cao Mo's words were full of meaning, Mei Yi originally thought so in her heart, even if she was not happy to hear it, she had no way to ridicule her.

Of course, she couldn't help but speculate in her heart about what Cao Mo's intentions were, so she wouldn't believe that he was really a pure humanitarian.

Cao Mo glanced at Mei Yi's beautiful eyes, although they were clear and charming, but the distrustful and vigilant look that was revealed really made people want to press her to the ground, and "snapped" twice on the loose cargo pants that couldn't hide the upturned little buttocks.

"In addition to the rock gold deposits in the northwest hills, Drake has also found some discoveries in the exploration operation area we have stationed here," Cao Mo pulled over a folding chair and let the tall Mei Yi sit down and said, "We have sorted out the original exploration wells according to some of the remaining materials of the Akwa National Petroleum and Mining Group, and preliminarily judged that the copper-gold mine on the east bank of the Wusan River may be equivalent to more than 200,000 tons of metal......

"Hey, what you guys have found this time is very impressive!" Xie Sipeng couldn't help but say enviously as he sat on the side.

The commodity market is most obviously reflected in the current futures price fluctuations of copper metal.

The copper commodity market started in May 1999, when the lowest point of copper prices fell to more than $1,300 per tonne, and all the way to May last year, when the highest rose to $8,800 per tonne, and then experienced the first wave of adjustment, when the copper price fell to about $5,300 per tonne.

Even though commodity analysts generally believe that copper prices, like gold, are likely to usher in another wave of C-wave correction, China and the BRIC countries have strong support for commodity demand, and no one expects copper prices to eventually fall below $4,000 a tonne.

The copper and gold mine, which is equivalent to 200,000 metal tons, has a theoretical total output value of up to 800 million US dollars, which can indeed only be regarded as a medium-sized copper and gold mine in today's copper ore mining industry, which often invests hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars.

However, the sharp rise in copper prices has brought huge profit margins to copper-gold mining, even for a medium-sized copper-gold mine.

What's more, in addition to refining refined copper, copper-gold mines can also bring greater profit margins to gold, silver and other by-products.

Listening to Cao Mo sit down and explain the commodity market first, Mei Yi couldn't help but interrupt him and said: "Although I studied journalism, Mr. Cao should not forget that my father is an economist anyway......"

"Miss May, if you can know this, then Miss May, you must also know how much of the current law in Akwa restricts foreign capital, and what are the main means of circumventing these restrictions at present,"

Cao Mo resisted the urge to complain, and said patiently,

"We can't wait for Akwa to completely lift restrictions on foreign capital before developing this copper-gold mine, but we also see that even if we are now cooperating with local companies to form a joint venture mining company, there will inevitably be some legal legacies that may be exploited by those who want to do so, so that we will not be able to ensure that our rights and interests in this copper-gold mine will not be violated...... So we need to work more closely with Drake. This is exactly in line with the white social system that your father wants to implement, and I just talked to your father on the phone about the ideas in general, and more specifically with you......"

"......" Mei Yi brushed a strand of messy hair behind her ear and put on a deferential look.

The rift between the descendants of the colonizers and the main ethnic group of Akwa is a deep scar left by centuries of colonial rule, and it cannot be completely healed by simply advocating a great reconciliation of the ethnic groups.

Juan Mantar is also clearly aware that the descendants of the colonizers are at an absolute disadvantage in all aspects of Akva, and it is impossible to return to the status of the rulers of this land in the past, and he is now thinking about how the descendants of the colonizers can live better in this land and change the tragic scene of oppression and even persecution by the main ethnic group in the past ten years.

At present, after the mainstream media in the West is occupied by the left, it pays more attention to the issue of equal rights for people of color, while the Western business forces have the same virtue as Cao Mo and them, and pay more attention to the gains and losses - Juan Manta

He did not expect much from Western society, which he disagreed with his daughter Maye Mantal, and his main strategy was to raise the banner of great ethnic reconciliation on the one hand, and to fight with the Saviyi authorities on the other hand, to speed up the construction of white communities on their own.

On Cao Mo's side, it is "innocent and guilty".

Cao Mo did not want to be alarmed, so he sealed the research of Amududi and temporarily mined the copper and gold deposits on a small scale in the contact area of the porphyry layer on the east bank of the Wusang River based on the research and field exploration results of the former Stru Gold Mining Company.

However, even so, a medium-sized copper-gold mine and a deep rock gold placer mine northwest of Drake have a theoretical value of more than a billion dollars, which is definitely not a small amount.

At that time, in addition to wanting to thwart the coup plot of Hufu Bonia, it was most advantageous to choose the cooperation of the Democratic Promotion Front, Tianyue's technical accumulation in mineral mining and other aspects was still very weak, and there was no industrial base in China, so it was impossible to transfer hundreds of middle and senior technical and management personnel from China to work at any time, Cao Mo still carried out in-depth cooperation with the Democratic Promotion Front, so as to select sufficient technical and management talents from the descendants of the colonizers.

All this will prompt them to be more deeply bound to the Front for the Promotion of Democracy in Akwa.

However, the situation of the descendants of the colonizers in Akwa is still so passive and disadvantaged.

At this time, Cao Mo needs to consider what he should do if someone who covets the Dragu copper and gold mine secretly incites ethnic hatred on a small scale, or colludes with local indigenous forces to come over and encroach on the rights and interests of the copper and gold mine.

In fact, Cao Mo had a more urgent need to build a white community on the east bank of the Wusan River.

Of course, even if the Saweiyi authorities have loosened their policy and allowed the construction of three or five white communities on a pilot basis, it will not be easy to implement them.

The descendants of the colonists once occupied a large number of plantations and estates in Akwa, but most of them were confiscated, where was the land for the construction of white society set aside from, and where was the huge amount of money raised?

The white community that Juan Mantar wants to promote, in addition to the physical facilities, also includes a system of community self-government.

The follow-up construction of the white community involves extremely complex links and extremely large funds, and Cao Mo cannot afford to undertake all of them free of charge for the time being, and the specific details have to be slowly discussed, researched, and developed new ideas with Juan Mantar, but he just spoke to Juan Mantar on the phone, and made it clear that he wanted to select people from the descendants of the affected colonists to form a disaster self-help committee as a preparation for the community self-government system.

Juan Mantar could not focus on building a white community, and Cao Mo, as the head of a foreign business, could only promote and fund it behind the scenes, and the whole thing naturally fell to May, who was the representative of the Front for Democracy.

When Mei came to Drake, she didn't even have a satellite phone, and when she arrived on the east bank of the Wusan River, she couldn't contact Peimei, and she didn't know that Cao Mo had already talked to her father about this step.

Cao Mo saw Mei Yi's cold little face, and she still had the urge to sneer in her heart, but she still handed her a satellite phone and said, "You contact Mr. Mantar first-you'd better organize the temporary self-help committee immediately, so that when the supplies arrive on the spot, I can directly transfer them to you for arrangement......"

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

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

As Juan Mantar's daughter and assistant, Juan Mantar also had a high reputation among the descendants of the colonists on the east bank of the Uzan River, and two of her assistants who came to Drake were members of the Front for Democracy.

Maye Mantar and her father confirmed by phone that after urgent consultations within the senior management of the Association for the Promotion of Democracy, it had been decided to set up a temporary office in Drake to lead the self-help committee, so she borrowed a tent from the camp and gathered local contacts and activists who had actually come forward to organize the rescue work, and quickly discussed a provisional list of disaster relief self-help committees.

Juan Mantar insisted on getting Cao Mo's approval first, and Maye Mantar was reluctant, but she also knew very well in her heart that not to mention the follow-up construction of white communities, even if the current disaster relief self-help work could not be carried out, it was inseparable from the financial and material support of Cao Mo's side.

The camp is very simple, there is no feeling during the day, after dark, mosquitoes like fighter planes come out from all corners, and they are staring at Cao Mo and their people with fine skin and tender flesh biting, no matter how the mosquito repellent is applied, it doesn't work.

In the stuffy tent, people did not dare to take off a single pair of jeans, boots, T-shirts and thin jackets, but before Maye Mantar organized the disaster relief self-help committee to take over, Cao Mo had to watch Xiao Jun continue to do the resettlement of the disaster victims, and he could not live in a comfortable and spacious hotel now.

When Cao Mo first built the Ibogu gold mine, the conditions were not much better than now, and he and Stari didn't feel anything, but after learning that there was a copper and gold mine on the east bank of the Wusan River, Xiao Jun rushed over to meet Kabuja as soon as possible, and he had already adapted to it for a while, but Zhou Han and Xie Sipeng were miserable.

Zhou Han's personality is so strong, and he gritted his teeth and didn't say anything about it.

Xie Sipeng wondered if Drake could intervene here, so he naturally insisted on staying by Cao Mo's side.

Maye Mantar brought over the list of self-help committees for disaster relief, and Cao Mo glanced at it cursoryly.

He didn't know the candidates listed, and he couldn't see any names, so Cao Mo directly took a pen and added two people to the selection, and said to Maye Mantal: "You just say that this is what your father, Mr. Mantar, means, and I believe that no one will object." ”

"Who is Albert Beal?" Maye asked, taking the list and asking suspiciously, "Also, many people know that Kuski is your bodyguard, and he is not even an Akwa, so why do you have to include him in the Disaster Self-Help Committee?

"Albert Beale is the eldest son of a geological engineer we hired from Drake, although he is younger, but you may not care, he helped us to contact us in the afternoon, he is very capable, I trust him," Cao Mo said, "Besides, except for Miss May, few people know that Little Kusky is my bodyguard, you don't have to shout all over the world." His grandfather was an Anglo-Akwa, and he did not settle in Kanem until after his father's birth, and if necessary, he could join the Akwa at any time......"
