Andreev, with the financial support of Ritchie, used ex-servicemen to form a strong service group.

Like Plov, they first came to Europe to serve Richie through a service company.

On the territory of the Soviet Union, they did not pose any threat, but if these people went abroad, there was a lot of room for them.

In Richie's autobiography, Richie sketches Richie's collusion with the mafia after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Although the language is unknown, it has revealed a lot of his close relationship with the mafia.

And the Russian mafia, the largest gang of gangsters in the world, only appeared in the late eighties.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, they smuggled, laundered money, kidnapped, extorted, and even replaced some government functions because of the large number of police and military members.

Jonas looked at Andreev in front of him and searched his memory, but found no way to find his name.

But the name of Ivankov's black boss made Jonas think of Big Ivan, the head of security next to Richie, all of a sudden.

Ivankov, one of the biggest black bosses in Russia. During his time in Russia, he was the largest arms dealer, selling weapons such as warships, tanks, artillery, missiles, and even nuclear materials.

He has not been punished by the law and has died unpunished. At the time of his death in 2006, he was buried in his hometown of Krasnodar Krai.

His tomb carved a Mercedes-Benz, artillery, and a life-size statue from a piece of black marble of several hundred tons as a tombstone, and became a place of worship for the mafia all over the world.

Now that I think about it, Big Ivan and this Ivankov seem to be the same person!

It's just that Jonas can't remember what that Ivankov looks like, can't be sure.

I'm not sure, but Jonas knows what to do.

He can't get too close to the other party, because the syndicate not only has a bad reputation, but is also known for money laundering in later generations.

If you get too close to them, you will definitely be targeted by them.

Now that I am already whitewashing, this aspect must not be touched in the future.

Let them continue to entangle with Richie, as long as they make appropriate gestures of affection, it will be enough to woo them.

Having determined the positioning, Jonas told Andreev: "Angola oil development now requires a strong security force. Kane's mercenary core consists of just over 100 people, and their main area of service is still in Nigeria. So I need a team to protect the exploration companies and maintain the stability of our oil development. ”

Andreev nodded and said, "I understand, that's why I'm here today." ”

Jonas asked, "How much strength do you have now?"

Andreev smiled: "It depends on how much you pay for security, and we will determine the personnel and weapons according to the funds." As long as your security expenses are sufficient, I can sail to Cabinda, even if it is a decommissioned warship of the Black Sea Fleet. ”

Warship...... It's too big.

This is enough to show that their group is a completely uncontrollable force.

It is necessary not only to win over, but also to guard against it. At least now Jonas, there is no self-confidence that he can completely control them.

Jonas thought for a while and said, "Since I don't need to worry about personnel and weapons, then in the early stage, I can maintain the security team according to the security cost of three million a year, how many people can you send?"

"The contract is for a minimum of three years, and we will send 500 soldiers, armed with their own firearms and vehicles, to maintain security in the Kabin area and along the coast. In the event of casualties, an additional benefit of not more than $10,000 per person is added. ”

$10,000 a year for an ordinary soldier is relatively high, and a maximum of 500,000 a year for 500 people. But guns, cars, and fuel are solved by themselves, plus the dividends of the leadership, this price is still relatively fair.

At least, this price is cheaper than Kane's, after all, Kane's members are all international mercenaries, if their team does not use local blacks, a team of five hundred people, they dare to ask for more than five million.

Jonas asked him to send more than 100 people to Angola to recruit people, and they already asked for 2 million, not including pensions.

Jonas wanted to win them over, but he didn't negotiate with him, nodded and said, "Very reasonable offer, I think you can form a team to go to Anguo." ”

Andreev said with a businessman's smile: "For only two million, Jonas and I can arrange a 1159-class frigate,...... That is, the corvettes of the Kony class are called by the Europeans at your service. ”

Jonas paused for a moment and asked with a smile, "Who owns it?"

"If you add a million dollars a year in maintenance in the future, the ownership is yours. I will be responsible for all personnel service during the service period. ”

Jonas was moved.

The shallow waters of Cabinda, Angola have a total area of 30,000 square kilometres, not counting the deep sea area. In the future, there will be billions of barrels of crude oil in the 1,000-meter-deep sea, and after the new century, development will also be profitable.

With such a large sea area to be protected, there is a real warship patrolling, which will greatly deter the surrounding pirates.

He asked: "I don't know much about Kony-class frigates......"

"This is a type of frigate designed and developed by the Zelyondolsk Design Bureau in 75 specifically for export. At present, it is exported to Bulgaria, East Germany, Yugoslavia, Cuba, Libya and other countries, and is the main warship of those countries.

The power adopts diesel-fuel combined power mode, three-shaft propulsion, the central shaft is connected to the M8B gas turbine with a power of 18,000 horsepower, and the two spindles are each connected to a 68B high-speed diesel engine with a total power of 18,000 horsepower.

With a maximum speed of thirty knots, an economic speed of fifteen knots, and a cruising range of 2,000 nautical miles/14 knots, it can safely navigate in category 8 waves and can use weapons in category 5 wave conditions.

The ship is armed with two main guns, two anti-aircraft guns, anti-submarine rockets, anti-aircraft missiles, mines, as well as one hundred and twenty attack rockets.

Of course, if it is a private purchase, some weapons need to be dismantled. But if you negotiate with Santos and buy it in the name of Angola at the market price, you can keep all the weapons. ”

Jonas couldn't help but laugh. "Andreev, now you are more like an arms dealer. But if it's to buy such arms, why don't I buy European warships?"

"Because we're cheap. I can also equip you with warship operators, who are all retired veterans. With these people, all your offshore rigs in Africa will not be afraid of being attacked. ”

Although Jonas was very impressed, he had to consider the reactions of all sides, so he did not directly agree.

"Andreev, I need to think carefully. However, with the team of security personnel, you can start now. Later, I will arrange for the Assets Department to write you a check. ”

"Can I ask for Swiss francs? The bank can be placed directly in your Hoffmann private bank, and the account can be opened according to the list of fighters, so that the monthly salary in the future can be transferred directly to the warrior account. ”

Jonas thought for a moment and said, "No. The threshold for my private bank is more than CHF 1 million. Moreover, having hundreds of more accounts at once will increase our management costs. I can introduce UBP or Credit Suisse to you. ”

The increase in management costs, the threshold of one million are all excuses, and Jonas is more worried that they will use these accounts to launder money in the future.

was rejected by Jonas, Andreev was not disappointed, nodded and said: "Then go directly to Credit Suisse to open an account, they just happened to accept the guaranteed loan you helped Anguo, and they should pay more attention to Anguo's account opening." ”

Jonas nodded, rang the pager, and Mikiros from the outer office walked in.

"Mikiros, you take Mr. Andreev to the Asset Management Department to write a cheque for two million Swiss francs, and then introduce him to Credit Suisse to open an account. …… Mr. Andreev, do you want to split the account now, or do you want to split it later after you determine the list in the future?"

He stood up, smiled and shook Jonas' hand. "I've brought a list of people with me. ”

Jonas became more and more sure that he was going to use these accounts to launder money, nodded and said to Mikiros, "You ask someone from the asset management department to come over, and I will issue a power of attorney." ”

Without a power of attorney from Jonas, no one could cash in funds exceeding one hundred thousand Swiss francs.

Although there are two million Swiss francs in reserve in the administrative fund account, which does not require the signature of Jonas, the money is responsible for the operation of the company and must be reported to Jonas on a regular basis.

The asset management department wrote the check, Jonas signed and stamped it, and handed them a power of attorney.

Only when the power of attorney and cheque are submitted to the commercial bank at the same time can cash withdrawals and transfers be made.

Of course, business-to-business investments and transfers only need to be verbally instructed by Jonas, and they must also be reported on time.

After Andreev left, Jonas hadn't even considered whether to buy a warship or not, and someone from Airbus came in.

Their service technicians, according to Jonas's requirements, recommended an improved Airbus A300B4 model.

It is a wide-body modified aircraft that can carry up to 42 tons at a time, and the airline can carry 330 people plus 12 standard pallets.

This is currently the widest passenger plane, according to Jonas's requirements, after adding a bedroom, 100 first-class cabins can be arranged flat seats, and the aircraft can also directly fit eight cars below 2.5 meters in height.

They offered more than a hundred interior styles based on Jonas's, and Jonas spent his eyes on choosing a minimalist futuristic décor in a palette of white and beige, with black and brown accents contrasting with it.

This is just the first step, and over the next six months, the designers will also provide interior renderings for each stage for Jonas to determine.

Even if it is bought in the queue, the plane will not reach Jonas until next August at the earliest.

I worked in the company for two days on official business and arranged everything.

This includes a four-year contract with Lutz, where he will serve as Executive Vice President and President of Product Development for the Hoffmann Automotive Group.

Grandma Hannah would come to the office once a week to help Jonas review the documents and sign them on her behalf.

Jonas then put aside everything and went to Kozani, a small city in northern Greece, for a training camp.
