Chapter 42: Natural Predators

Lucasa, Temporary Office of International Security I.

Surrounded by a group of soldiers armed with AKs, Matthew walked back and forth, his face visibly full of impatience and irritability, and he waited for thirty minutes before the leader of the Shadows, making his patience almost at the limit.

Suddenly, Matthew sensed something was wrong and instinctively looked in the direction of the feeling.

I don't know when, a person has already walked into the room.

Asian race, not tall, ordinary face shape and hair make Matthew unable to tell the difference between him and those outside, and the thin body seems to fall with a punch.

But Matthew seemed to have encountered a natural enemy, and the hairs on his body involuntarily shrank together.

What kind of eyes are that.

The jet-black pupils were flat and indifferent, and there was no emotion in sight, but there was a suffocating silence that made people want to suffocate.

Instinct made Matthew feel in danger, and he wanted to hold back, but in the end he restrained himself.

He didn't like the man in front of him very much.

There is no reason.

If I have to say what the reason is, it is that when he sees this person, he feels an instinctive fear.

It's a pity that Matthew didn't kill a pig.

The person who kills the pig, because he kills the pig all the year round, will have a cold killing intent that only a pig can feel, which is the death breath condensed by countless blood containing the spirit of the pig.

Therefore, when pigs see a butcher who has been killing pigs for many years, they will be frightened to the point that their legs will go limp, and they will be able to feel the wailing and screaming of their own kind from the butcher.

Zheng Zheng, big and small, participated in dozens of battles.

Killing hundreds of people in Zaire and Rwanda alone is like a pig butcher, and the murderous aura he has cultivated is as instinctively terrifying to Matthew, who is also black, as a pig is when he sees a butcher.

In two words, it is like a natural enemy, or a natural enemy that cannot be resisted.

After looking at the so-called finance minister, a trace of sarcasm and disgust flashed in Zheng Zheng's eyes.

The Minister of Finance is dressed in a military uniform, and he looks nondescript with the rank of general, and the most bizarre thing is that from his chin to his neck, there are all traces of fat flesh that are fat into lumps forming circles, which makes the gold necklace hanging around his neck look particularly dazzling.

Probably because there was no refrigerator here, the black face was covered with greasy sweat, and as he breathed, the fat that drove his neck to his face looked like a black boar.

What kind of finance minister is this Nima......

I have been in Africa for many years, and I have long been accustomed to what looks and what I look like, and I have long lost the fear of all kinds of heads when I came out of the country.

There is no way, even some presidents here are really not respectable in terms of image and cultivation, and they are not even as good as the cultivation momentum of some county magistrates in their hometowns.

If you have to use any metaphor, the idiom of Mu Monkey and Crown is probably the most vivid.

"Listen to my soldiers, you look for me?"

"Yes...... Yes, you are the leader of the Shadows, and I am Matthew......"

Meanwhile.

Shen Jiannan stood in the corridor outside the conference room, his eyes flashing with a burst of fine light.

Zambia has the world's largest copper deposits, ranking first in the world in terms of reserves and mining volume, and as such, it has always been a treasure trove of feng shui for global capital.

Anglo-American Union has mining companies here, BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto have mining companies here, Sumitomo Mitsubishi has mining companies here, and Glencore, which came to the top, has also tried its best to win mining companies here.

But I don't know if it's a load of rice to raise an enemy, but China, which has helped the most here, can't get mineral resources, and has become the first anti-China country in Africa.

Now it's fun.

Sumitomo has always had great ambitions, and since Yasuo Hamanaka promised to short London copper in the market, it must have been instructed by Qiushui Yamashita to have the ability of the Sumitomo consortium, and some mining companies will not open this feast if they do not go bankrupt.

When the time comes, you can help those mining companies set a price.

Dropping the cigarette butt, Shen Jiannan strode back to the conference room, if Zheng Zheng could understand what he meant, then he should be able to make a lot of money this time.

"Brother Shen. In this way, Yuntong took another step back, thirty-five percent. They are responsible for the planning of preliminary projects, including the recruitment of workers, the transportation of equipment, the scheduling of technicians and engineers, and so on. ”

Shen Jiannan stayed outside for a full fifteen minutes, which made Shen Zhi's heart beat a drum for a long time, and as soon as Shen Jiannan pushed the door in, he hurriedly said.

There is no way, people are poor and short-minded.

If this is not negotiated because of the shares, it will be a big loss.

Shen Jiannan felt ridiculous, if Zheng Zheng's side could win the Zambian copper mine as he expected, the price that Shen Zhi needed to pay for the big package alone was probably enough for the cost that he needed to pay.

Not to mention anything else, it is construction machinery and technicians and engineers, and if these resources are carried out from the outside, they will have a very large number.

But if there is Yuntong to take care of himself as the shopkeeper, then the saving heart is not something that money can measure.

Different angles, different thinking.

In Shen Jiannan's eyes, human resources and mining and processing experience are very expensive, but for Yuntong and his party, these are probably the least valuable.

As far as the reserves of cloud copper are concerned, they can't withstand many years of mining, and if they can obtain foreign resources, it will be a century-old plan. As Shen Zhi's words landed, the people on Yuntong's side looked at Shen Jiannan expectantly, and their eyes were like honest people who stretched out their heads and waited to be slaughtered.

In this regard, Shen Jiannan somewhat understands why state-owned enterprises are always cheated by foreign capital in this era.

It's not that these people aren't smart enough, it's not that these people can't hold their breath, to put it simply, they are all poor.

But in business, if you don't suffer losses, you will learn a lesson.

Shen Jiannan knocked on the table, and there was obviously a trace of dissatisfaction on his face.

"Director Shen, Mr. Fang. Don't you think it's too dark? The Konkra Copper Mine alone is worth 160 million US dollars, and I just got a call that Zambia is interested in selling the Lunmwana copper mine, which is worth at least 100 million US dollars.

How much is the machinery worth?

Even if I arrange for someone to buy it, do I want five million dollars?"

"Mr. Shen. You're right, but you're not right. The so-called cooperation is mutually beneficial, Yuntong has the most complete industrial management experience, just the training of technical personnel, is a great investment, not to mention, machinery and equipment maintenance, smelting, processing and sales and other channels, these are all requiring a lot of investment. ”

"Technician? Is there a salary of 600 yuan a month? And an engineer, a salary of 1,000 a month? You can also see my sincerity, you can't fool me like this. ”

"This ......"

All of a sudden, the people of Yuntong were pointed to death.

Isn't it?

In terms of labor costs, labor costs cannot be used as accounting chips at all.

Even if you need a thousand people, it's not worth a few dollars.

When the negotiations between Shen Jiannan and Yuntong reached an impasse, the negotiations between Lucasa First Security and Matthew also reached an impasse.

"You are robbing, the Lunmwana copper mine has 100 million tons of reserves, all of which are 1.1 percent high-grade ore. Equinox was willing to mine for $100 million, and it's worth $100 million, you know. ”

Like an angry gorilla, Matthew slammed the table and roared at Kurishenko Jr., who was helping Zheng Zheng negotiate.

He really hates this damn white guy to death.

As soon as he opened his mouth, in addition to the Konkra copper mine, Lunmwana was actually added, which was even darker than his heart.

In this regard, the younger Kurishenko was not moved at all, and he practiced a gentleman's apology to the horse.

"Mr. Secretary of the Treasury, the $100 million you said was before, and now, I think this copper mine is only worth $2 million, do you think that this amount of money is enough to pay for our employment? ”

"Damn bastard, what are you talking about? Two million dollars?"

"Oooo Mr. Matthew, please don't get excited. Before you came, David's men had already come, and they promised to pay us with the Konkra Copper Mine plus Lunmwana Plus Mopani Copper Mine if we helped them defeat you and your big brother. ”
