0656 Commencement of construction (4K chapters)
As the saying goes, soldiers don't get tired of cheating, Wu Qian is nothing more than a trick to cheat the other party, seeing Mardussan's expression, Wu Qian knows that the fraud has succeeded.
The remaining spades did stay in Addis Ababa, but not as Maldussaint feared, but with other tasks on their hands.
Mardusan saw that Wu Qian didn't speak but just smiled, like a hundred claws scratching his heart, his hair was about to stand up, in this life, the most important person to him was this son.
"What happened to you with my son Cambetty?"
This is a question that is not only of concern to MaldusΓ‘n, but also to Coux and Rapo Elkan.
It is unacceptable to use children as bargaining chips to negotiate, and they very much do not want their partners to do such bottomless things, even if they are aimed at bad people, it is not appropriate.
Wu Qian looked at Rapo Erkan and Kureta and said with a smile: "What do you look at me like this, I don't know what he is talking about......"
Then, Wu Qian pointed to Mardusan and said, "I believe you also understand that you and your subordinates have become a cancer in the northwest of Ethiopia, and the Ethiopian government has been very unhappy with you for a long time, but it doesn't want to pay too much price, so it has not touched you." β
"Now I give you two choices, first, live forever in the prison of Hargeisa, and I will immediately unite with the Ethiopian government to assist them in eliminating your men, and naturally cut off the cultivation and sale of Carter leaves. β
"Second, you take care of the affairs of Ethiopia by yourself, and transform it into other businesses, ......"
As he spoke, Wu Qian raised the myrrh he had been playing with in his hand and said, "Don't plant Carter leaves in the future, plant this, as far as I know, the myrrh here in Solan is not enough to sell, and the market prospect is very good." β
"Carter leaves are also species, and myrrh is also a species, both crops grow in the plateau area of 1,000 to 1,500 meters, one is harmful to people, the other is curative, isn't it good to make clean money?"
Maldoussaint is like an Oscar winner possessed, and the expression on his face is ever-changing, which shows how intense the thought activity in his heart is.
There is also a myrrh export trade in Ethiopia, and the gap is indeed not small, but in general, the economic benefits are not as good as the Carter leaves, but as Wu Qian said, this money is at least clean.
"Alas......"
Maldusan thought that his child might be in the hands of the other party, he looked up to the sky and sighed, then turned the wooden chair around, sat on the chair, and stretched out two fingers to gesture to Wu Qian.
Kuretta took a cigar from the guard behind him and threw it along with the lighter.
"Ten years ago, when my third wife was pregnant with Kambadi, I thought about giving up and no longer growing and selling Carter leaves, but with thousands of people following me, everyone had to eat, and I didn't grow Carter leaves, so I couldn't feed my people. β
"Your Excellency Wu Qian, you want to plead with you for one thing, I hope you can promise me. β
Wu Qian was not in a hurry to let Mardusan make a choice, and motioned for him to continue.
Maldussaint took a vigorous puff of his cigar and exhaled a thick cloud of smoke that enveloped his entire head.
"Some of my subordinates and subordinates have been with me for more than ten years, they used to be soldiers, and their nature is not bad, I beg you not to kill them all, just dismiss them, if you can contain them and give them a job, it will be better. β
"As for the Carter Tree Plantation, I can make a phone call and ask a few of my most loyal subordinates to set a fire and burn it clean!"
Mardussan's words shocked the hearts of Wu Qian's three people, listening to the meaning of these words, Maldusan actually chose the first path, which is incredible.
"What about you?" Wu Qian asked.
"I?ha......" Mardusan laughed again, laughing for about seven or eight seconds before stopping, and then said: "If Your Excellency Wu Qian gives me a way to live, I will be by Camberti's side for the rest of my life, and accompany him to grow up." β
"If Your Excellency Wu Qian is not at ease, wait until I finish handling the matter, and aim here......" Mardusan pointed to his eyebrows and said, "Take a shot." β
Mardussan's pride did not allow him to spend the rest of his life in prison.
"What about your children and wife?" Wu Qian asked.
"Over the years, in addition to providing them with financial support, I have not fulfilled my duties as a father and husband at all, I believe that as long as I die, Your Excellency Wu Qian will definitely not be unfavorable to Cambetty, I can see that you are not that kind of person. β
"Why did you choose that?"
Wu Qian was very puzzled, and according to his idea, he changed the Carter leaf cultivated land to myrrh, what a good choice, from black to white.
Mardusan swallowed a puff of cigarette, then slowly exhaled, and said: "I have made meritorious contributions to the country, and I have committed many crimes, thank you Your Excellency Wu Qian for bothering to help me think of a way to atone for my sins, but I am tired, and I can't afford to atone for those sins." β
As soon as he entered the rivers and lakes, Wu Qian would not know that if Mardusan really changed to myrrh, his income would inevitably plummet, he would not be able to afford the expenses of his subordinates, and his power would definitely shrink at that time.
Not to mention whether the government will deal with Maldussan, who has reformed his ways, Mardussan's enemies will not let him go just because he started a legitimate business, but will take advantage of the situation and launch a thunderous revenge.
Wu Qian looked at Mardusan with a face full of vicissitudes, and there was no longer a ruthless color in the other party's eyes, but with a smear of defeat, this kind of look, Wu Qian only saw it in the most wonderful film and television dramas, in the eyes of those who lost their motivation to live.
Rustling.
Wu Qian walked towards Mardussan.
David and Bauer rushed out from the rear and protected Wu Qian's side.
Wu Qian did not stop the movements of the two, but he believed that at this time, Maldusan would no longer have the intention of hurting him.
Sure enough, Mardusan Wu smoked his cigar to himself, as if he hadn't seen Wu Qian walking to his side, and he was stunned.
Wu Qian put his hand on Mardusan's shoulder and said, "From the time you promised me to let me dismiss your men and burn the leaves of the Carter tree, you have begun to atone for your sins. β
"Mardussan, do you want your children to live in a better environment?"
Maldussan's eyes flashed with a little color, he looked up at Wu Qian, and asked hoarsely, "What do you mean?"
"How about I can let your family live in London, let Camberti study in the best aristocratic school and receive the best education, and you can retire there?"
With a thud, Mardusan jerked to his feet, startling David and Bauer.
"No, as long as you can make Camberti live happily in London, I won't go, I don't want to go, I'll discredit him. β
Maldusan looked very excited.
A black and gold leader like Mardussan, who made his fortune in a third world country, has no way to enter and exit developed countries in a bright way, let alone let his children go to the world's top schools, unless he severs ties and entrusts them to others.
No matter how rich you are, you can only live in the shadows for the rest of your life.
Maldusan sent Camperty to Addis Ababa at a very young age in order to free Campetti from his black imprint in his upbringing.
Wu Qian can understand Maldussan's distress, now the Internet is so developed, even if he helps Maldusan change his identity, it is difficult to ensure that he will not be exposed in London, it is indeed unsafe, he nodded and agreed to Maldussan.
Seeing Wu Qian nodding, Mardusan closed his eyes and let out a long breath, and then said, "Your Excellency Wu Qian, please bring my children and wife from Addis Ababa to Beera, I want to meet them again before they leave for England." β
Wu Qian shook his head with a smile and said, "Then you have to tell me the address." β
Except for the spade troops in the room, everyone else was stunned.
Mardussan's mouth was wide open, with a strange look on his face, and something seemed to be stuck in his throat, and he wanted to speak but couldn't speak, and held back for a long time, and finally burst out laughing, leaning back and forth.
"It turns out that you have been lying to me all along, forget it, forget it, Your Excellency Wu Qian, I have already made a decision, I will not change it, you send someone to the rich area of Addis Abebasi South...... Bring my children and wife, please. β
Wu Qian motioned for Kuks to call to inform him, and he said to Mardussan: "I didn't lie to you, my other three men are indeed in Addis Ababa, but not to arrest your children. But if you don't compromise, my people will immediately contact the Ethiopian government and destroy your nest in a very short time. β
As he spoke, Wu Qian pointed to Kuretta, and then said, "That big man, he has 500 million US dollars worth of armaments on the border between Ethiopia and Solan, BONG, the kind that is very powerful. β
There are more than 5,000 people under Maldussan's command, and the per capita armament is worth more than 1,000 dollars, the comparison between the two is simply a world apart, but those are no longer important, since Maldusan knew that Wu Qian did not attack his son, his favorability towards Wu Qian has increased a lot.
"Your Excellency Wu Qian, you don't need BONG, I'll take care of it. That, in addition...... I have bank accounts in many countries, and as you said, the money is really not very clean, and there are about half a billion dollars to ......."
Wu Qian knew what Mardussaint was going to say, he raised his hand to stop the other party's words, and then pointed to Rapo Elkan, and said, "Well, you talk to him, he has a way to play gambling." β
In the morning, Rapo Erkan and Kureta saw a series of strange methods by Wu Qian, and unexpectedly uprooted the black and gold forces entrenched in the northwest of Ethiopia, which raised Wu Qian's image in their hearts by two levels.
Mardusan and Erkan don't talk about business matters.
At around four o'clock in the afternoon Solan time, in the hotel, Mardusan saw his children and his wife, who had not been reunited for more than half a year.
In the front yard of the hotel, Mardusan had a great time with Cambetty, he had never been so happy with his wife and children as he was now, and his previous meetings were cautious, for fear that the enemy would know about the existence of his wife and children.
Three days later, a plane took off from the airport in Peberla, passed through Addis Ababa and then diverted to London, carrying not only Camberti and Mardusan's wife, but also Rapo Erkann and his men.
"Your Excellency Wu Qian, why do you insist on refusing to be Camberti's godfather?"
The day before, considering that Camberti had grown up in England and was unable to be by his side with Cambetti, Mardusan had made a difficult decision to find a godfather for Cambetti.
At first, of course, Mardussaint found Wu Qian and wanted him to become the godfather of the child, but Wu Qian said that he did not agree to anything, even if Maldusan said that he was willing to invest half of his assets in Baipeila, Wu Qian did not agree.
Eventually, Elkan became Camberti's godfather, and the little guy was very clever and clever, much to the liking of the Italian, who had no wife or children.
Wu Qian turned around and patted Maldussan's arm, and said with a smile: "I don't have any religious beliefs, I am not suitable to be the godfather of Camberti, don't worry, he is in London, I will order someone to take care of him." β
On the same day, at the behest of Wu Qian, Orr Hanwen held a large rally of recruitment and mobilization in Beberla.
In front of the wharf, about 100,000 Solan people gathered, and the scene was spectacular!
Mardusan was among them, and no one would know that Mardusan, who was mixed in with the laborers, was actually the owner of the Berbera thermal power station.
Sixty percent of the power station's proceeds will go to Camberti's account, the remaining 30 percent will go to Wu Qian, and the remaining 10 percent will go to Kuretta's.
Outside the port, the scene was also unprecedented, with hundreds of freighters of all kinds docked on the shore in long queues, waiting to be unloaded.
At the mobilization meeting, Wu Qian invited the infrastructure team hired from the Celestial Empire to show the people of Solan Kingdom the efficiency of manpower and large machinery, and let the people of Solan know what the power of science and technology is.
The Solan people, who use shovels and hoes all year round, have seen the power of large excavators.
Then, Wu Qian personally went into battle and showed the people of Solan the basic living conditions of all income classes.
"Whether you want to continue to be hungry, or to fish and meat, whether you want to continue to be unclothed, or to be well-dressed, whether you want to continue to chew Carter leaves and waste your time, or to exchange hard labor for a better tomorrow, the choice is up to you. β
"All I offer is an opportunity, and it's up to you whether you can seize it or not. β
"Throw away laziness, a hard work, a harvest, under the advanced system, those who work hard will be rewarded, and those who are opportunistic will be punished, from today on, with your own hands, to create a beautiful city!"
"For the sake of your own country, for the land under your feet, for your future, for the future of your children, fight for it!"
(English is one of the official languages of Solan, and everyone can understand it.) οΌ
After Wu Qian finished speaking, there was long-lasting applause and cheers on the dock.
After the mobilization meeting, it will be a five-day job, which will be assigned according to each person's situation, depending on whether to go directly to the post or train first.
On the same day, the internal system of Solan Central Bank was reset, and the actual controller of the new system was no longer Ol Hanwen, but Fei Miller, who in turn linked Solan's state account to Wu Qian's name.
That is to say, from this day on, every profit and loss of Solan Kingdom is closely related to Wu Qian.
