Chapter 859: Prince Island
Su Yan's bright and moving big eyes shook on Zhang Xingming's face, since Miss Shen stayed in Zhang Xingming's bedroom overnight, Su Yan and Xu Xiaoya always looked at Zhang Xingming with this kind of gaze.
Zhang Xingming took the document and said, "Let me tell you, I feel that you and Xu Xiaoya are not quite right in the past few days. Don't beat me up, don't you listen? If you're in the mood, hurry up and find me a brother-in-law, I have a master. ”
Su Yan pursed his lips and withdrew his gaze.
Zhang Xingming raised his eyebrows and glanced at Su Yan: "Still not convinced, right?"
Su Yan snorted twice to express his disdain, and asked, "Is Prince Island really beautiful, when are we going?"
Zhang Xingming said: "The key is to be able to rent, the place is not meaningful to rent for a short time, the construction period is too long, and the software and hardware are blank, and a lot of money is needed to fill it." If the rent is high, it will be boring, and now the initiative is not in our hands. ”
Su Yan said: "There are only a few thousand people on the island, can't we just buy the island? There are no resources on it, so it should be able to be sold? I have checked, and the economic output value there is only tens of thousands of dollars a year, which is not as good as the poor county in my hometown." ”
Zhang Xingming said: "A small island with a few thousand people has an annual output value of tens of thousands of dollars, which is not low, and there must be nothing. ”
Su Yan said: "I'm talking about Sao Tome, not Prince Island, the country's economic output value in the past two years is only tens of thousands of dollars, every year in deficit, arrears exceed the national assets, I don't believe that he will not sell millions of dollars." As long as you think it's worthwhile. ”
Zhang Xingming thought for a moment, frowned, and said: "How much do you buy? How much do you give? This must be a country, a country recognized by the United Nations as having the right to vote, and there are only two small islands in their country, can they be sold?"
Su Yan said: "Who said that there are only two islands, but these two islands are a little bigger, a total of seventeen or eighteen islands." The country consisted of seven counties, six on the main island, and an army of about 300 people, all of whom were immigrants in the sixteenth century, and then the slaves rebelled and established the state, which had no industry, and the arable land area was less than five percent of the country's land, and it produced coffee beans and cocoa.
This is one of the few black socialist countries on the planet that believes in Marx, has close ties with our country, the socialist countries of Eastern Europe and Cuba, and the ruling party adheres to our Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence. In 85, the economy was about to collapse before the reform and privatization of the economy began, and now the country is brewing multi-party, which is going to take capitalism. ”
Zhang Xingming thought about it, opened the document in his hand, and it seemed that the basic content was similar to what Su Yan said, and the analysis of all aspects of the country's politics and economy suggested that he directly talk about the purchase of Taizi Island, on the condition that he would not break away from the national system, help their national economy, and help establish an education and medical system.
Zhang Xingming took a pen and signed his name on the document and handed it back to Su Yan, asking, "How much foreign debt do they have?"
Su Yan took the document and said, "It's more than 10 million US dollars, there is no specific statistics, what do you want to help them with?"
Zhang Xingming's memory of a little memory about Sao Tome surfaced, it seems that in 07, in order to resist China's influence in Africa, the International Monetary Organization and the Paris Club member countries gave African countries a large amount of debt relief, and there was this Sao Tome on the list, which seemed to be more than 300 million US dollars at that time, and more than half of it was forgiven.
Then Zhang Xingming remembered something again, it seems that this country established diplomatic relations with Wanwan in the two years after the return of Hong Kong Island, and cut off contacts with China.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xingming said: "Make a plan, buy, get this island down, and borrow money to support or something, don't talk about it, just throw money." Let the company on the Bald Eagle side come out for an interview, and the means are not limited. ”
Su Yan asked, "Then Madagascar is still not going to do it?"
Zhang Xingming thought for a while, shook his head and said: "It's not cost-effective, forget it, I've never been interested in that place, that place is poorer and messier than Santo Tome, and there has been a drought for many years, will we care about it or not? I have the money to help some students in a few poor counties in China, isn't it good?"
Su Yan said: "Then the security side is going to be worried, you let them build a base there, the European and American interest circles can't be touched, the south is not cost-effective, and there is no outlet to the sea in the middle, giggles, I feel as if you are deliberately embarrassing them." ”
Zhang Xingming said: "It's easy to find, there is no place in Africa that is not endless, there are always opportunities." But we also have to talk about the cost, isn't it good to find a place where there is no shortage of water and no lack of trees? Even if the investment is a return. Do they have to be interested in that kind of place where the island doesn't? When the time comes, our base will be built there, and the people on the side will starve to death, so whatever?"
Su Yan thought for a while and nodded, "That's right." Anyway, I haven't been there, watching the news on TV or something, it seems that Africans are living a miserable life, it's really troublesome to get involved, and I'm poor, and I don't pay back the money I borrow, and I'm a scoundrel, and it's like black people are quite creditless, and whoever gives benefits will go the same way. ”
Zhang Xingming said: "Yes, what you said is right, it can be regarded as grasping the essence, Europeans and Americans are so insidious that they also have to talk about a basic contract spirit, but this is useless for black people, you take a closer look, where there are black people, it will not stop, there are more black people, it must be chaos, the whole world is like this, they have no bottom line of values, just look at the immediate benefits." ”
Su Yan asked, "Then why do we still want to build a base in a black place?
Zhang Xingming said: "You are richer than him, just have harder fists than him, and you can be beaten if you are disobedient." It's mainly because of the chaos over there that I want to go over, and the security work outside the country is more dangerous, so find a chaotic place, and have nothing to do with it, so it's hard enough to practice. Moreover, the development of chaotic areas is not noticeable, this world must be a world dominated by Europe and the United States, and we are too weak. ”
Su Yan nodded, while they were working for Zhang Xingming, it could also be said that it was a process of continuous learning and progress, from current affairs and politics to economic and technological aspects, they were effectively improving, and now they could despise all their peers in China, and they could even be raised a few levels.
People always have vision that determines thinking, and thinking determines behavior.
Su Yan said: "Sister Yanyan's brother-in-law bought her a big diamond ring, and she has been in front of the three of us all day for the past two days." ”
Zhang Xingming smiled and asked, "How big, how big is the diamond on the ring?"
Su Yan stretched out his hand and compared it a few times, and said, "Anyway, it's not small." ”
