Chapter 229: Straker's Challenge Gauntlet
Today, we are here to remember three people who died in the line of duty for the just cause of all mankind: James Brosnan, Pierce Bond, and Aiden Puffy Pig.
Their heroic deeds have made a significant contribution to exposing the world's last organized and barbaric economies of slavery embedded in the global trade chain, and history will remember them. Sue Blaise Brittany. ”
"Salute!"
With the completion of the speech, the three body bags were thrown into the sea along the side of the battleship, which was considered to be a complete sea burial.
This scene occurred two hours after Gu Kun joined the "Yonghua," and he hurriedly boarded the destroyer "Yonghua," met with the officers and men who participated in the battle, and personally commended them, and was very pleased to hear that none of his own soldiers had been killed.
A small number of wounded people have also received good treatment and subsidies, and there are also heavy rewards for returning home.
Because before the war, Gu Kun was prepared, and everything was foreseen and abandoned, so the consumables for sea burial and mourning were also left on the warship. It's also bad luck to keep this kind of thing, so after hearing that none of our fighters died in a single row, these things happened to be used by BBC reporters who "unfortunately died in the line of duty".
And in good conscience, the deaths of those BBC dogs are not worthless, it is their sacrifices that have brought zero casualties and as few battle wounds as possible on Gu Kun's side - because if You Sufu had not clearly torn the undercover agent, the artillery coverage here would have been more fearful.
If you don't do this, if you see those white people dead when you finally clean up the battlefield and collect the corpses, who will it be because the barrage is fierce and the heavy firepower is used too much?
Now that the evidence is conclusive, it was You Sufu who did it, and Gu Kun's use of more fierce heavy firepower can be regarded as revenge for the BBC dogs, which is "temporary and indignant". Post-mortem examinations were also performed, and they were all killed by a headshot in the temple, a typical execution, not a mistaken shot during a battle.
In case he accidentally injured a few more slaves by mistake, the Indonesian Yankees protested in the future, and Gu Kun could let the boss of the BBC take the front and bear the hatred that was pulled by those international relations.
Don't thank Gu Ye, Gu Ye is such an old yinbi, seeing the BBC dog die, he wants the owner of the BBC dog to accept his favor in the international community, and admit it without flaws.
"Are you done shooting?" Gu Kun, who was about to wash his hands and wash off some bad luck after finishing the ceremony, asked kindly when he passed by Pierre's side.
"It's over, it's over, it's over. Pierre hurriedly turned off the machine and stopped wasting any more film.
In the past two years, he has been able to use miniature digital devices when he photographs the revelations of slave owners. I didn't expect to use the film camera for the first time, or the memorial service of the former colleagues of the shooting tool man, which is really providential.
"It's good to be done. Gu Kun nodded slightly, walked away gracefully, and didn't say anything more, leaving only Pierre's back for him to imagine what to do.
Lao Tzu is too lazy to hold a memorial service for those BBC dogs! Since it is opened, isn't it just for the camera! How can it be done if the surplus value is not fully squeezed out.
......
After the cooking was perfected, Gu Kun finally got a rough idea of the local situation.
Slavery is not something that can be eliminated in two days a day, and those who were directly exterminated and killed by Gu Kun were only two of the four major slave lords of Banda Hai and Alafura Sea, that is, Banda Yuno and Yusuf. In addition, some small leaders who were killed by beating rabbits with grass ranged from seven or eight to more than a dozen.
However, not only did the other two slave lords not suffer any damage, but even the men under Banda Yuno and Yusuf also had many small bosses who were dormant on the outlying islands and could continue to be at large. Originally, there were at least seventy or eighty small lords in this sea area who each occupied a small island, but after this purge, there were at least two big lords and fifty or sixty small island owners left.
Perhaps, after the big lord is destroyed, with the law of the jungle in this place, the small island owners who were once under their command will grow up and take their place, just like the boss of the gang has been killed, and there will always be a second brother who will succeed him.
Gu Kun is not a professional bandit, and he has no interest in cleaning up the portal for Indonesians for a long time.
For him, exposing this rotten nest, putting it in front of the world, and then using world public opinion to condemn the Indonesians, pressure them to clean up the portal, and improve the overall quality of the seafood industry in Southeast Asia is what Gu Kun can do.
"After it is difficult, it is better to collect all the evidence, and return to the ship in two days, it is not appropriate to stay here for long. ”
In the study room of the "Zhu Sen", after roughly looking at the record of the situation after the payment, Gu Kun threw the materials on the coffee table, rubbed the eye care ** on the bridge of his nose, and sighed and decided.
After all, it is still about exposure.
"Boss, Reporter Pierre has a copy of the material about these slave owners' black materials, do you want to take a look at it?" Seeing that the boss put down the last task at hand and began to rest, the female secretary Shalanova hurriedly took a look at the gap report.
Before the extermination of You Sufu, Gu Kun had always said that he wanted to see the gains of the reporters, but he never had time.
"Okay, let him bring his things, and let him come over to report in half an hour, and I'll take a rest first. Gu Kun agreed, looking a little tired.
To be a hero, there are so many things.
After a while, Gu Kun began to read the black materials again.
Although he had already learned about the Indonesian fishermen in his previous life and knew that these slaves sold by human traffickers across the country were very miserable, he was still a little shocked by the first-hand detailed materials he had directly seen from the undercover reporters at this moment.
According to the photographs, most of the fishermen lived not even in houses when they were on shore, but in iron cages – not even prison cells, exactly the same cages for civets in zoos, or coffee gardens where cat poop coffee is produced.
It's just that the size of the cage that people live in is definitely larger than that used by civets. And even this kind of iron cage is not something that can be divided by one slave, at most more than 10 slaves take turns to share an iron cage!
Because, according to Pierre's unannounced visit, the fishermen here had to stay awake and go to sea for 22 hours a day (not necessarily all of the high-intensity fishing work, but certainly not to sleep and rest), and the most benevolent slave owners only reduced their working hours to 20 hours.
Therefore, the time for them to return to the island and go ashore is only two to four hours, and the slave owner only needs to know a little bit of mathematics, know how to plan, and stagger the time difference between the return voyages, so as to ensure that each cage is used by N slaves in turn.
The reason why the slave owners dared to do this is probably because Indonesia is located in the tropics, so the slaves will never freeze to death without clothes and cages without walls and roofs, at most as long as they are drenched in tropical rain. If the slave gets sick in the rain, he will die, and no one will care. Even slow activity can be killed outright.
Pierre's reporter knows a Burmese slave named MyintNaing, who died in 93 because his father capsized while fishing, and wanted to smuggle to Thailand to work in order to support his family, but he was sold to a slave owner by the black snake head for $20 a life, and was violently detained by the slave captain and transported to the East Maru Valley Islands. The man was only 18 years old at the time, and he had been a slave for seven years, and he was lucky enough to be rescued at the age of 25.
When the Burmese left, he counted them and told Pierre that more than 300 people had been introduced to "smuggle to Thailand to work" in their fishing village, but so far he was the only one who returned alive. (Note: Historically, this person was only rescued in 2015, is 40 years old, and was interviewed by CNN.) The only one of the more than 300 deceived people in the village who returned to his hometown alive is also real data, but in 2000, the others should not have died, but there is no other evidence in the book to make up data, just use it, anyway, even if the others are not dead, they have not returned to their hometowns)
"It's outrageous, it's no wonder that the seafood industry is so competitive on global costs. There is a steady supply of salbah and dragon fish and dragons that have almost no business in the market, how can the regular companies of other countries that provide labor insurance to fishermen in accordance with the regulations compete with them?
Gu Kun saw the righteous indignation, and couldn't help but take the case. The act of killing those slave lords did not have the slightest guilt of killing.
"Mr. Gu, this is nothing, don't be angry. ”
A voice next to him persuaded Gu Kun, who was distracted, and Gu Kun noticed that it was the Pierre reporter who had been summoned by him.
Gu Kun patted Pierre's shoulder earnestly: "You accompany me to the island, I want to see the cages where those slaves live with my own eyes, you should tell me more about this." It's not intuitive to look at the text, I want you to go straight to the point. ”
"Of course that's fine. ”
A few minutes later, Gu Kun took a team of bodyguards and an amphibious personnel transport armored vehicle to take Pierre to the island, inspect the heinous ruins, see the tragic conditions of those slaves with his own eyes, and listen to Pierre's body outline to describe the most outrageous points.
The details are afraid that people who have not seen the tragic situation will be uncomfortable, but they don't need to be described too much.
After looking around, Gu Kun heard Pierre mention a fierce news.
"What? You say that Banda Yuno and Yousuf are in collusion with the people of the Australian KG Group, and that company is one of their main shippers?"
When he heard the news, Gu Kun was almost shocked. This was not exposed by those reporters of the Houshui Associated Press, so Gu Kun didn't know about it as a reborn.
Unexpectedly, it was Pierre, a French journalist who was obscured in history and should have died, to expose it, perhaps because the French had no stake in it and would not be pressured to shut up.
Gu Kunke knows that KG-SeaFood Group is one of Australia's top seafood industry giants.
In the later generations, Australia's trade with China, the top five products in terms of export value were beef, milk, mutton, wool, and lobster all year round. Among them, the lobster industry, which ranks fifth, is exported by KG Group.
The export value of lobster is more than that of Australian iron ore. Australia's sixth-largest supply to China has only been able to obtain iron ore.
Unexpectedly, such a large group with a market value of at least billions of dollars would actually ......
