Chapter 445: Conflict of Interest
Our team, driven by two jeeps, two armored vehicles and two trucks carrying supplies, drove slowly down the bumpy road, occasionally passing through the villages, the yellow-skinned locals stared at us with vigilant eyes, and even militants with cheap assault rifles flashed away.
The Golden Triangle is a barbaric place where several countries are adjacent and no one can control it, basically controlled by all kinds of armed tribes, these large and small armed tribes are basically related to drug lords, and the cultivation of royal rice is the biggest income of the leaders of these armed tribes, and it is also the main source of income for their subordinates.
Our sudden appearance here certainly aroused their great vigilance, in fact, since we entered this area, there were armed tribesmen who quietly followed us, probably afraid that we were here to attack and sweep them, so they followed us to see our real purpose.
And the civilians here don't welcome us, or they have a strong sense of vigilance, disgust, and opposition to us, after all, they live here, and they are already oppressed by those drug lords and armed leaders, so they are naturally full of hostility and vigilance towards us "outsiders" who carry weapons and look bad.
Although there are armed tribesmen who appear around us from time to time, but after all, we are well-armed, and there are two armored vehicles, these guys did not know our truth and did not dare to act rashly, and we finally came to the Golden Triangle in the economic zone industrial park newly established in the last two years.
The industrial park has invested tens of billions of yuan, and there are hundreds of factories invested by Chinese bosses, and a few of them are factories of Thai bosses. Most of the factories in Huaxia are basic electronics factories and hardware mold factories, while Thailand and Yue Lan are basically opened by hard disk manufacturers.
The person in charge of meeting us was a person in charge of the industrial park, this guy is Zhong Guangxiu's right-hand man, the deputy director of the office of the Yanjing Investment Promotion Office, his name is Ma Haitao, a middle-aged bald man in his forties who looks a little bloated, wearing glasses, and looking a little official.
In addition to a group of high-level management of the industrial park, Ma Haitao is surrounded by many factory owners, most of whom are Huaxia bosses, these people believe in Zhong Guangxiu, will come here to invest in the factory, in fact, the tax and labor here are very low, and there is a head to set up a factory here, but after the businessmen came here to set up a factory, they found that it was very chaotic, and there would be armed tribe clashes in the first two days.
The salary of the recruitment is very attractive to the locals, but after the locals come to work here one by one, the drug lords and armed leaders who grow imperial rice are not happy, except for killing some migrant workers to threaten the locals, not allowing the locals to work, and asking them to go back to planting imperial rice. From time to time, violent elements will be sent to storm the industrial park, and the security guards in the industrial park are all from Huaxia, when have they seen gangsters who come to make trouble with AK rifles, so the security guards are useless.
The arrival of our peacekeeping force was the happiest of the bosses who had already spent a lot of money to invest in setting up factories here, so they all brought the workers of the factories to welcome us.
I took Rong Qingqing and Rong Qinglian, and shook hands with Ma Haitao one by one, Ma Haitao is Zhong Guangxiu's right-hand man, and he has been with Zhong Guangxiu for more than ten years, and his ability is okay, so Zhong Guangxiu will hand over this star diamond six-country economic cooperation demonstration project to him to be responsible.
Ma Haitao knows very well about the competition between Zhong Guangxiu and Liang Houren, and he also knows a lot about the relationship between Wei Lao behind Zhong Guangxiu and Rong Lao behind Liang Houren, two powerful old men in the army. Now many people in the circle don't know that I am Zhong Guangxiu's son, but they all know that Zhong Guangxiu spares no effort to support me, and everyone says that I am Zhong Guangxiu's protégé.
Now I, Zhong Guangxiu's proud protégé, appeared with Rong Lao's two granddaughters, this signal made Ma Haitao a little dumbfounded, thinking: Aren't Rong Lao and Wei Lao opposites, why are Rong Lao's two granddaughters getting together with Chen Cheng, this seems to be a bit of a different sign, is the overall situation going to change?
I don't know that Ma Haitao thinks so much because I am with the Rong sisters, after I introduced each other to him, he arranged for us to live in a dormitory in the industrial park temporarily, and at the same time prepared a meal for us.
Although the meals at the dinner were all ordinary ingredients of chicken, duck and fish, they were better than enough oil and water, and there were originally two bottles of ordinary Moutai on each table, but they were removed by me, and no one in the peacekeeping force was allowed to drink alcohol during the mission.
I sat at a table with Rong Qingqing, Rong Qinglian and Ma Haitao with the factory directors of several large companies, and during the meal, I asked them about their current situation.
Ma Haitao said: "Because of the intervention of the armed leaders, it is difficult to recruit workers now, and the workers who were originally recruited are afraid of retaliation, and many of them run back to continue to grow royal rice with the armed leaders honestly, and only a few of them have no families, or they are down-looking about life and death and just want to work hard to make money and leave the residents, and still stay in the industrial park to work." As for the attack of the militants on the industrial park, it is something that happened in the three heads and two days, among which the largest armed tribe leader near here is called Wu Jinshui, who has more than 100 private troops under his command, and belongs to Peng Jiannian, the largest drug lord in Southeast Asia, and is Peng Jianian's loyal lackey, because he made a lot of money planting imperial rice for Peng Jianian, so he is the strongest to resist the industrial park, and from time to time he sends people to disturb him, and the day before yesterday he also clashed with the security guards and shot and killed three security guards. ”
I turned my head to look at Rong Qinglian and Rong Qingqing, and said with a wry smile: "It seems that our peacekeeping mission is more dangerous and difficult than imagined. ”
According to the tasks given to us by the above, our peacekeeping force has three main tasks, the first is to protect the industrial park, the second is to regularly patrol the Mekong River across the Golden Triangle, and the third is to assist the volunteers of the Red Cross to set up a medical assistance site here.
Rong Qinglian has been in the army for a longer time than me, and his position is already a major, so he suggested to me at this time: "The Red Cross medical station will not be built until the volunteers arrive later, and as for the regular patrol of the Mekong River, this task can be postponed for a while, and the most important thing at the moment is to protect the safety of the industrial park here, and not let violent elements come here to cause trouble and kill people again." ”
I nodded and said, "Major Rong is right, I also plan to stay here for a month now, and then talk about it when this place calms down." ”
Ma Haitao and the factory directors at the same table were overjoyed when they heard this, and said to me excitedly one by one: "Haha, with Captain Chen and your peacekeepers to maintain order and order, those guys who don't have long eyes will definitely not dare to make trouble." ”
A few of them had just finished patting me on the back, and the words fell, when suddenly someone rushed in from the door of the canteen, panting and sweating profusely, and said to Ma Haitao: "Director Ma, the big thing is not good, Wu Jinshui's subordinates have come to make trouble again, threatening to burn down the industrial park, saying that our industrial park has taken away all the farmers who planted royal rice." ”
Ma Haitao's face changed drastically, and he stood up and hurriedly asked, "Where is the security team?"
The subordinate said with a sad face: "There was a clash the day before yesterday, and three security guards were shot and killed by those people, and now the remaining security guards are scared and dare not show their heads." ”
Ma Haitao and a group of factory directors and bosses in the canteen have all become ants on the hot pot one by one, and they are so anxious that they may be in a hurry, and they have forgotten that there is still our peacekeeping force that has just arrived, I put down my chopsticks and smiled and said: "Director Ma, don't be impatient, I'll go out with you to see what's going on." ”
When Ma Haitao and the others heard my voice, they suddenly remembered that this time was different from the past, and as for our group of peacekeepers, they all hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, Captain Chen, you go out and control the scene." ”
There were several tattered military trucks parked at the entrance of the industrial area, and twenty or thirty private soldiers with pistols or rifles on their backs were gathering and shouting, and one of them, a tall, thin horse-faced man, who seemed to be the leader, held a Molotov cocktail made of beer bottles of gasoline, set the Molotov cocktail on fire, and then threw it at one of the factories where it was stacked.
The people hiding around all exclaimed when they saw this scene, and if the Molotov cocktail fell, it would definitely cause a fire.
Just when everyone's exclamation sounded, and the Molotov cocktail flew to the factory with a roar, suddenly everyone at the scene heard a gunshot, and the Molotov cocktail was hit by a bullet in mid-air, shattered with an uproar, and turned into a firework in mid-air, falling on the empty ground.
"Who, who fired the shot?"
The horse-faced leader was stunned for half a second, and then he muttered angrily, and everyone realized that I was carrying a pistol in my hand, followed by two heroic beauties in military uniform, and a pair of imposing peacekeepers behind me.
