Chapter 397 Private Armament

"Mr. Hu, your amount of wine is really good. I usually drink three drinks, and after three drinks, I start to flutter, so I never drink too much. Lao Xia's alcohol consumption is good, but it's a pity that he found the wrong opponent, hehe, see if he dares to brag in the future?"

Wu Gang didn't drink much, Xia Guoheng had already been sent to the room by his subordinates to rest at this time, and it seemed that he could only stay in the hotel for one night today.

"Mr. Wu, how is the safety situation in the mine?"

According to the information, the safety of the mine was very good, and Hu Yang felt that it should be a little watery at the time, but it did not affect his investment decision.

Now that the agreement has been signed, he estimates that Wu Gang will tell the truth.

"There is no problem with the safety of the mine, please rest assured that Mr. Hu will do so. We have our own escort team, half of which is made up of people from previous British and American companies. There are more than sixty people, well-equipped, unless the army is dispatched, a rabble of one hundred and eighty people is simply a delivery of food. ”

The corners of Wu Gang's mouth twitched, and he said this very confidently.

Populus euphratica was depressed, and it seemed that he didn't know about it. Gao Mingkang didn't know, or he didn't care if he knew. On the day of the accident, if Gao Mingkang had brought heavily armed bodyguards, he might not have suffered such a heavy loss.

"Mr. Hu, I know you've been worrying about Mr. Gao. Anyway, everyone knows that Sauron did this, but no one has any evidence, so what can you do with him?

The armed forces in our hands are mainly used to protect the enterprise, and it is no problem to bring more bodyguards when we go out. But I can't bring the whole team here, and if we do, I'm afraid we won't be able to get out of Lusaka. ”

Wu Gang's meaning is very simple, force can protect itself, but it cannot do whatever it wants. At the very least, Hu Yang led a team of men and horses with loaded guns and ammunition, and it was not possible to go to Sauron for revenge. Doing so would be severely cracked down on by the local military police.

"Mr. Wu, thank you, I understand what you said. Isn't there an old saying, it's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, and there is always a chance to clean up that Sauron. ”

Hu Yang still hasn't said a word, he doesn't have the patience to wait for ten years.

However, Populus euphratica does not move blindly. To do things, you have to use your brains, and it is the next step to fight and kill, and the wise do not do it. When Mingkang Communications has gained a firm foothold in Zambia and even Africa, is there still no way to clean up a mixed-race French hooligan leader?

"That's right. Mr. Gao and we are compatriots, and it is not the first time that Sauron's bastard has targeted Chinese people. When there is a chance in the future, let's all join forces to engage him. Now, the time is not right.

In addition, there are some things that may be disrespectful to Mr. Gao, but I still want to say it. Mr. Hu, Mr. Gao's previous development strategy in Africa was biased. I know that the industry in which Maxcom operates is high-tech, but you can't completely exclude the locals.

Locals may be less able to understand and work less efficiently, but don't forget, we're doing things in someone else's country. If you can't integrate into the local society and create some jobs for the local people, how can the local people support you?"

Although Wu Gang didn't drink much today, his alcohol consumption has always been very poor, and it is obvious that he has been affected by alcohol after saying so much.

Hu Yang was also thinking about this problem, and he remembered very well that in that time and space, Huaxia's influence in Africa was very great, even surpassing that of Lao Mei.

Hu Yang recalled: On the one hand, the Chinese people do things morally and do not interfere in other people's family affairs. On the other hand, the state has not only brought capital, technology, and employment to the local community, but also helped the local area improve infrastructure, education, medical conditions, and so on.

It can be said that only China is really helping Africa's economic construction, unlike some transnational capitals who only know how to plunder.

"Mr. Wu, I understand. In the future, Mingkang Communication will develop in Africa, and will try its best to handle the relationship with the local community. Mr. Gao mainly came for too short a time, and if you really give him time, I think he will figure it out too. Okay, it's not too early, let's go rest. Mr. Wu should also open a room in the hotel, and don't run around at night. ”

Hu Yang looked at his watch and pulled Wu Gang out.

Wu Gang was walking a little swaying at this time, so he told his men to open the room.

When Wu Gang and Xia Guoheng came over before, they brought a lot of people. However, when they had dinner with Hu Yang, most of them were gone, leaving only some security personnel.

Hu Yang returned to the room and felt that some of what Wu Gang said was still very reasonable. So he called Yu Yue and told him that he still had to recruit some locals in the future project.

Locals can't do jobs that are too skilled, and some simple jobs, such as the civil part of the base station, laying optical cables, digging trenches, etc., can be done by locals.

In addition, the company can pay for the renovation of the roads near the fifteen base stations. On the one hand, it is convenient for future maintenance work, and on the other hand, residents in the vicinity of the base station can also benefit.

Hu Yang didn't say much, it is best to understand this kind of thing by himself, after all, it is impossible for him to stay in Africa for a long time.

The next day, Xia Guoheng and Wu Gang came early in the morning to call Hu Yang to breakfast.

Xia Guoheng slept and woke up, and he couldn't see that he was drunk last night. On the contrary, Wu Gang looked a little listless.

"Mr. Wu, didn't you sleep well last night?"

Populus euphratica rested well at night, had a good appetite in the morning, and ate a lot of food.

"I answered two phone calls during the night and didn't sleep very well. Mr. Hu, I just talked to Lao Xia about going back and helping you introduce a few communication projects. ”

Wu Gang and Xia Guoheng's company has been operating in Africa for many years. For example, the famous Tanzan Railway in Africa was built by China Railway Construction.

The two companies have built a lot of infrastructure in the local area, and have maintained a good relationship with both the government and the people, so naturally they have a much wider range of channels than Mingkang Communications, which has just come to Zambia.

Hu Yang secretly laughed, this is also the investment agreement signed with them, otherwise they would not be so enthusiastic.

"Then I'll thank you first!"

But no matter what, this is the attitude of the people, and Hu Yang quickly expressed his gratitude.

"Mr. Hu, do you want to go to the mine today? If we leave early, we can arrive at noon." ”

Xia Guoheng hopes that Populus euphratica will visit the mine, and then finalize some details by the way, so that he can expand production without distraction.

"Well, I'll go to the hospital first, and if there's nothing going on over there, I'll go with you two. ”

Hu Yang nodded, he just wanted to go on a field trip.

After breakfast, Hu Yang went to the hospital, and the doctor said that Gao Mingkang still had to be observed for one to two days, and if there was no problem, he could be transferred to the general ward.

After coming out of the hospital, Hu Yang got in touch with Wu Gang and Xia Guoheng, and then made an appointment to meet and prepared to go to Kangkola.

"Mr. Wu, Mr. Xia, your convoy is a bit too exaggerated, right?"

Hu Yang had planned to rent a few cars from the hotel, but Mingkang Communications' local business had just started and he had not bought a few cars. When these cars were attacked in Gao Mingkang, they were all damaged to varying degrees and were being overhauled.

As a result, Wu Gang said no, they had enough vehicles.

When Hu Yang arrived at the rendezvous site, he saw more than a dozen military jeeps. He made a preliminary estimate that Wu Gang and Xia Guoheng's security personnel combined were almost twenty.

Among these security personnel, there are Chinese, whites, and blacks, but more than half of them are Chinese.

"Mr. Hu, you don't have to be nervous, the security in Zambia is not bad. The main reason why we brought so many people here this time was because we had to escort a batch of cash back. ”

Xia Guoheng and Hu Yang rode in the same car, and Li Jie sat in the passenger seat.

Hu Yang noticed that the driver had a pistol in his hand, and the other people in the vehicle were also equipped with automatic and semi-automatic weapons.

"I'm not nervous, I'm just curious. ”

As long as it is a man, he will be full of curiosity about firearms. Of course, now is not the time, wait until you get to the mine and ask Lao Xia to see if you can let yourself have a few bullets to have a good time.

The traffic situation on the road is not bad, Zambia has better infrastructure and better transportation facilities among African countries. At noon, the convoy arrived in Concora without a hitch.

The Concora Copper Mine is a well-known underground copper mine, and the shadow of the shaft can be seen from afar.

When they arrived at the mine, Wu Gang and Xia Guoheng directly led Populus euphratica to eat. This time when I came to Concora, Hu Yang brought all the manpower, and I also hoped that they could familiarize themselves with the environment.

"Mr. Hu, the mining area you see only accounts for a very small part of the entire mine. The company's financing is to prepare to expand the production area along the northwest direction, and also expand the exploration area. There is no problem in production now, the personnel left by the British and American companies in the past have been eliminated, and the rest are willing to work and obedient elites. In addition, we have also recruited a lot of professionals from China, and our technical strength is no worse than that of other mining companies. ”

Walking around, Populus had no intention of going to the well. Wu Gang accompanied him all the time and gave him a detailed introduction to the situation of the mine.

Coming to a secluded place, Wu Gang pulled Hu Yang to stop, "Mr. Hu, I see that you are quite interested in firearms, why don't you shoot a few shots here?"

As he spoke, Wu Gang grabbed a gun from the guard's hand. Hu Yang recognized this "artifact" at a glance, there is no way, the AK series is too famous in China.

Li Jie took the gun for Hu Yang, checked the magazine and mechanism, and then began to explain the essentials of shooting to Hu Yang.

Hu Yang didn't notice that the security personnel he brought, including Lu Dacheng, were staring directly at the AK in Li Jie's hand with their eyes, and their hot eyes seemed to see their former friends again.

Populus euphratica stood at the foot of the empty mountain of slag, shooting non-stop. It's very enjoyable, but after a long time, the arms and shoulders still can't stand the huge recoil.

"Don't play, go back. ”

The poplar pointed his gun downwards and returned the gun to the people.

In the afternoon, Wu Gang and Xia Guoheng accompanied Hu Yang and others to nearby towns.
