Chapter 250: Ambition

Xie Sipeng's place is spacious enough, but there are not too many guest rooms, so so many people can live directly.

Everyone also took a break at Xie Sipeng's residence, and then directly checked into a nearby seaside resort hotel.

This beachfront resort, similar in layout to Lana Dere Resort, is located on the seaside of Port Peme, with a manor-like layout, with only six floors in the main building, and the penthouse suite where Cao Mo and his guests stay can overlook the blue sea and the soft silver-white sand beach, and the coconut groves are swaying.

Although Akwa is located near the equator, the sea breeze blowing from the Atlantic Ocean in the evening is slightly cool.

But who would have thought that in this quiet and peaceful atmosphere, a storm of military coups was brewing?

"Zhou Han is my newly hired life assistant, who just jumped from Taihua, and she can do some small things in the future," Cao Mo asked Xiao Jun, who helped them with the accommodation procedures before and after running, to rest, introduced Zhou Han to him, and said, "You sit down and smoke with us......

"You are living a luxurious life of having something to do as a secretary and nothing to do as a secretary in advance!" Shen Ji also sat on the sofa, listening to Cao Mo introduce Zhou Han's identity like this, he couldn't help but stretch his waist, leaned over and whispered a joke to him.

Cao Mo glanced at Zhou Han who was standing opposite, obviously she knew very well what kind of joke men would make in private, but she had completely recovered her usual disguise at this time, and shook hands with Xiao Jun generously: "Manager Xiao will tell me anything in the future." The clear voice of the words is correct and round, which makes the pure and delicate face reveal a little cold arrogance.

In West Africa, young and sexy maids are easy to find, such beautiful life assistants are really scarce, and not in the country, high-end office buildings are full of beautiful urban girls.

Xiao Jun was confused, but he wouldn't break the casserole to ask anything at this time, and he sat down to mainly talk about the sales of Huachen motorcycles in Akwa.

Although Akwa has only six or seven times the population and land area of Kanem, it is a large country in West Africa, with a population of 30 million, and it is also a market that Tianyue Trade attaches great importance to in West Africa.

In the early 60s, after getting rid of the rule of the colonizers and becoming independent, Akwa, which has rich resources such as oil, iron ore and gold, has been developing very well, but since the new military coup d'état launched by Saiweiyi and seized the supreme power of Akwa, it has strengthened its control in the field of resource development, nationalized it, and rapidly deteriorated relations with major European and American countries, and was subject to a series of severe sanctions, and the economy soon collapsed.

In recent years, the relationship between Saiweiyi and Europe and the United States has eased, and the economy of Pemei Port and the surrounding areas has gradually regained some vitality.

The port is quite tidy, but the road traffic is still difficult to escape the disadvantages of narrow and congested.

Motorcycles are still the city's preferred choice for middle-income people.

Due to the deterioration of Akwa's relations with Britain, France and other European and American countries from the mid-to-late nineties, a large number of second-hand motorcycles and spare parts are difficult to enter, and the stock of new and used motorcycles in Pemei Port is very low, which also makes Akva's market demand potential for motorcycles accumulated over the years very considerable.

Xiao Jun is in charge of the Akwa market, me

The sales volume of the previous month has reached 10,000 units, accounting for 15% of the entire West African market of Huachen Motorcycle, and nearly 70% of the motorcycle sales market in Akwa is occupied by Huachen Motorcycle.

Without the existence of competitors, the price of Huachen motorcycles in Akwa is also slightly higher, and the profit of a single car is 100 US dollars, that is, Xiao Jun and a team of more than a dozen people, the net profit in Peimei Port has reached almost 10 million yuan per month.

Xiao Jun, as the leader of the team, in addition to the normal salary, allowance and equity distribution, the sales reward for these two months is as high as 50,000 US dollars.

"The situation in Akwa may become very complicated in the near future, the recent sales and marketing plan, be a little more conservative, you try not to leave the port of Pemei, if there is any change, contact the embassy as soon as possible, or go directly to the embassy to avoid it...... "Xiao Jun is considered to have been pulled to Africa by his own hands, Cao Mo doesn't want anything to happen to him, and tells him about the possibility of a military government breaking out in Akwa in the near future, so that he can be mentally prepared.

Africa is a region full of wars, and even the remote areas of Akwa still have sporadic anti-government forces attacking the local government, military camps and other departments from time to time, but Xiao Jun has not really seen the threat of war.

However, unlike Shen Ji, who grew up with a golden key since he was a child and received the best education in the civilized world, Xiao Jun, like Cao Mo, has more or less a reckless atmosphere.

Listening to Cao Mo talk about the Waka military camp, Xiao Jun was not too shocked and afraid, and said: "The atmosphere in Peimei Port is a bit abnormal, and many local distributors who are in close contact with us are worried that Saiweiyi's promise to the international community to promote political change will cause fierce resistance within the country - this Ufu Bonia is a typical hawk in the Akwa army, but he did not expect that he had already planned a military coup ......"

After Xiao Jun finished his mission in Catelo, he went to the assembly plant of Huachen Industry to work as an assistant to Xu Lizheng for more than a month, and when the manager sent to Akwa broke his leg in the countryside and had to return to Draculamo to recuperate, Xiao Jun was temporarily ordered to rush to Akwa to open up the market, and it has been two months.

Xiao Jun is also good at studying, and after arriving at Akwa Pemei Port, he has studied the local market, and naturally pays attention to its high-level changes and the changes in the domestic and international situation in Akwa, and even feels more direct and profound than Cao Mo, who came to Akwa for the first time.

Cao Mo was about to catch Xiao Jun and ask more about the domestic situation in Akwa and the intricate relationship between the high-level, Xie Sipeng knocked on the door with Zhang Min and said to Cao Mo:

"I asked Shabot Langming to come over for dinner in the evening, and then you and Mr. Shen and Abacha will meet with Shabot Langming?"

In addition to being a government functional department for the management of petroleum and other minerals, Akwa Petroleum & Minerals Group also directly manages large oil fields and mining areas directly under the central government of Akwa, which can be said to be the most powerful department in the economic field of Akwa.

However, Shabot Langming, whom Xie Sipeng had interviewed, as the sales director of the Mangba iron ore mine under the Akwa Petroleum and Mining Group, cannot be regarded as Ake

Wa's high-level figures, he can't even have a decisive role in whether Xie Sipeng can get a long-term supply agreement for Mangba Iron Mine.

Of course, this person is the highest-level person Xie Sipeng can reach in the field of iron ore trade.

Since Cao Mo came over, he would also give Xie Sipeng enough face, but he knew that Xie Sipeng could realize what terrible and uncontrollable variables a military coup would bring, so he asked directly: "Don't you really think about a way out for yourself?"

Seeing Cao Mo talking about the retreat point, Xie Sipeng sighed and said with bitterness: "The fire at the city gate has affected the fish in the pond - however, what can I do, just think that something really happens, the people of Akwa still have to live, and the economy cannot completely come to a standstill, business can still be done more or less, right?"

Everyone has known each other for so long, and today it can be regarded as a common adversity, and Xie Sipeng no longer conceals his specific investment in West Africa over the years - his investment in Kanem is not much, mainly a little stake in Hua Mall and Lake Conero Industrial Park, and the rest is basically transferred to Akwa.

In Ouma, which is adjacent to the Mangba mining area, Xie Sipeng directly contracted thousands of acres of land with placer gold production, and then divided it into small pieces and subcontracted them to gold diggers who came from China, and they collected management fees from them; in addition, in addition to continuing to buy back gold bars and exchange US dollars, he also registered an engineering equipment agency sales company in Peimei Port, specializing in selling excavators, water pumps, generators, placer gold machines, and other equipment needed for gold placer mining—he invested $3 million in this piece alone.

He personally invested $5 million in the iron ore ship, Xu Sheng invested $2 million, and the other $8 million was borrowed at high interest rates, hoping to take advantage of the rise in international iron ore prices in the past two years to repay the loan as quickly as possible.

In this way, he can be counted as laying a solid foundation in Akwa.

Even if he knew that there was a possibility of a military coup d'état in Akwa, even if he was a gambler, he had already bet all his chips on the table, how could he easily leave the game?

Anyway, he knew in his heart that Cao Mo, Shen Ji, and Abacha were people who understood and couldn't be deceived, and now that he handed over the bottom, he really had to encounter unstoppable difficulties, and he could still ask for help when the time came.

If Xie Sipeng really encounters something, Cao Mo will help as much as possible, and he will not do anything that falls into the ground, but he can't worry about Xie Sipeng, and said with a smile: "Old Xie, you are not ambitious, I also said that with that little bit of gold, why is it so attractive to pull you over." ”

It is better to be the head of the chicken than the tail of the phoenix.

Whether it is placer gold mines or iron ore trade, although they are all high-risk and high-return businesses, there is another point that is quite tempting for Xie Sipeng, that is, after he completes the relevant industrial layout in Akwa, he can become a leader of Chinese businessmen in Akwa.

Maybe after staying in Africa for a long time, everyone will inevitably have a little ambition to "dominate the storm".

It's just that at this time, it was broken by Cao Mo, and Xie Sipeng's old face also felt slightly hot.
