Chapter 0415 leased five thousand square kilometers

Gu Yu proposed to invite mercenaries, and President Domingos did not object, and the two reached a consensus on this point, which has a basis for continuing the talks. However, the following problem is the big thing that really touches the deep, and if this matter is not solved, the problem of BX country will still not be solved.

The problem is money.

Inviting 5,000 soldiers from country M to come over and serve as volunteers requires money, and hiring mercenaries all over the world also needs money. It may not be possible for a mercenary to be like country M, where the lion opens its mouth widely, and with only 5,000 people, it dares to ask for a billion dollars a day. Mercenaries certainly don't ask for that much money, but they also need a lot of money.

First of all, you have to give them a commission or salary, a person always needs two or three thousand dollars a month, and more may be tens of thousands of dollars, if you hire 10,000 people, then the salary alone will cost tens of millions of dollars a month, and hundreds of millions a year.

Secondly, the expenditure of equipment, camps, food and lodging for these mercenaries is also not a small amount, and even on top of the expenditure of wages.

Of course, if President Domingos can let the mercenaries occupy the quota of the regular army of country BX and use the barracks and equipment of the regular army, he can save this money, but it is obvious that President Domingos does not have the ability to order the military to act according to his orders now, and this money is afraid that it will not be saved.

Looking at Gu Yu breaking his fingers and counting them one by one, President Domingos's face was very ugly, he was also a president anyway, and his understanding of the doorway was no worse than Gu Yu's, and he knew that Gu Yu was not talking more, but saying less. It is more difficult and expensive to really raise an army than Gu Yu said.

Gu Yu spread his hands and told President Domingos that he had spent billions of dollars to rescue President Domingos, which can be said to be the most benevolent and righteous. If President Dominguez wants to hire mercenaries, then well, President Dominguez needs to find a way to raise money on his own, and there is really nothing he can do here. And as a testimony to the friendship between the two, he can return the billions of dollars he spent to rescue President Dominguez's family without paying President Domingos a penny. For the rest, President Dominguez will find another way.

President Dominguez swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he had just been elected president, maybe he was already thinking about how to benefit his daughter and son-in-law, but the real benefits would have to be a few years later, and now, he really has no money, and there is no other way to get money. The current financial situation of the BX government is very bad, and there is a large fiscal deficit every year, and it is very difficult to get money out of the government. As for embezzling the military funds that should have been given to the military to recruit mercenaries, this kind of thing, President Dominguez really didn't dare to do it, if he dared to do this, the military would definitely dare to have a fish with him and carry out another military coup, at that time, he may not be as lucky as now, to have someone like Gu Yu who is willing to spend billions of dollars to save him.

President Domingos is not a fool, Gu Yu was able to hire 5,000 soldiers from country M to come and rescue him, and said that he could not do with this money, this is to give him a lot of face, if he still has to make an inch, it will be too shameless. What he needs to do at this moment is to give back the benefits to Gu Yu, so that Gu Yu can enjoy enough benefits, so that the interests of him and Gu Yu are tied together, so that the friendship between the two can last for a long time, and the mercenaries can succeed.

President Domingos kicked everyone out except him and Gu Yu, and then sat next to Gu Yu, putting on a sympathetic posture, he went straight to the point, and asked Gu Yu to put forward conditions, as long as it is within the scope of his presidential authority, he can sign the decree immediately, even if it is beyond his presidential authority, he can also agree first, and find a way to push the parliament or other departments to agree to this matter in the future. Of course, if Gu Yu is not satisfied with these conditions, he can wait until the situation stabilizes and issue bonds in the name of country BX, and the funds raised will be used to repay Gu Yu's loans, including the billions of dollars he spent on hiring 5,000 soldiers from country M.

President Dominguez was so cheerful, but Gu Yu had to spend a lot less words, and Gu Yu was not hypocritical, he directly stated his conditions. First of all, there is the issue of mercenaries, Gu Yu can bear all the costs of the entire mercenary alone, but this mercenary must have a legal identity in BX country, and the ownership and command of the mercenary must be in Gu Yu's hands, Gu Yu guarantees that this mercenary will not do anything that threatens the BX government, and will not endanger the people of BX country, and when President Dominguez is in need, this mercenary force will firmly stand on the side of President Domingos.

When President Dominguez heard this condition, his eyebrows were raised. He really didn't expect Gu Yu to plan to raise this mercenary army alone, which is not something that ordinary people can do, even if it is a large multinational company, it may not be able to raise such a huge army. And Gu Yu also demanded the ownership and command of this mercenary army, which was a bit beyond his bottom line. After all, he is the president of BX country, and Gu Yu is a Chinese person, what kind of thing is it to raise such an army in their BX country?

Seeing that President Domingos frowned, Gu Yu asked him what difficulties he had, and he could say anything directly.

President Domingos expressed his concerns, Gu Yu smiled, and told him that it was precisely because he was from China that he raised an army in BX country and there was no threat to BX country, and Gu Yu's roots were not in BX country in China, and he would definitely not seek to overthrow BX countryFu, like the R country of the year, carried out a terrible massacre, he just used such an army to protect the interests of the people of BX country, which is equivalent to the people of BX country without spending a penny, and they enjoy the protection of more army, what is there to worry about.

President Domingos could only smile bitterly, he knew that Gu Yu's words were a kind of sophistry, but he couldn't debunk it. He could only deceive himself and listen to Gu Yu's words as the truth.

In fact, nine percent of Gu Yu's words are his sincere words, he really has no intention of overthrowing the BX country, the reason why he wants the ownership and command of the mercenaries is to ensure that this mercenary army that he has spent a lot of money on can listen to his command, and cannot spend money to raise white-eyed wolves. This is one and two, once Gu Yu and President Domingos reach an alliance, he will definitely make large-scale investments in BX countries and arrange various industries, and when the time comes, who will protect the huge benefits brought by these industries, it must be the mercenaries he spends money to raise.

Saying that it is a mercenary, Gu Yu is actually like a private army that only obeys his orders, and when the time comes, with the protection of this private army, he can actually form a country within a country in BX, and in this country within a country, he is the emperor of the soil, and he can most effectively ensure his secrets and interests. If it is left in the country, even if Gu Yu has this thought, he does not have this condition, BX country is different, the military coup d'état here caused by the confrontation between the military and the government, gave him this opportunity, and he naturally wanted to seize it.

After appeasing President Domingos, Gu Yu made several more demands. In addition to the issue of mercenaries, Gu Yu put forward a total of three major requirements, the first is that he needs to lease a piece of land in BX country, the lease period should be long, the rent can be according to the market price, he will carry out industrial construction on this leased land, he wants the management right of this land, BX country can set up an office on this land, and collect taxes normally. Of course, Gu Yu also wants the preferential tax treatment that should be enjoyed by normal investment promotion.

The second major requirement is that Gu Yu should enjoy judicial immunity in BX countries. Analogy can be made to the similar powers enjoyed by diplomats.

The third big requirement is that Gu Yu hopes to be able to buy the equity of BX national aviation manufacturing enterprises, preferably 100% equity. As for the purchase price, he will buy it at market price and will not embarrass President Domingos.

After listening to several requests from Gu Yu, President Dominguez secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the number of requests made by Gu Yu was far lower than he expected, and almost every request of Gu Yu did not embarrass President Domingos. It's like leasing land, not to mention the market, and it also allows BX to collect taxes normally, which makes him have a reasonable explanation for the people.

President Dominguez nodded, readily agreeing. Not only that, but he also signed a formal agreement with Gu Yu, and he finally not only signed the agreement, but also used the national seal, which means that the BX State Government officially reached an agreement with Gu Yu, and from the beginning, it has legal effect.

Both Gu Yu and President Dominguez were very satisfied with such a result, and both achieved their goals. Gu Yu officially took root in the BX country, not only enclosing private land here, but also establishing a private army, which will be the place where he will show his blueprint in the future. And with Gu Yu's support, President Dominguez will be guaranteed to regain his presidential authority in BX country, and with Gu Yu's support, he may become the longest-serving president in the history of BX country in the future, and in the future, he may be able to support his relatives to follow in his footsteps and become a president.

Power comes out of the barrel of a gun, and this is a universal truth.

Gu Yu carefully put away the agreement, which was almost all signed according to his will, and the most important thing he paid attention to was the terms of the lease of the land. In order to avoid a head-on conflict with the vested interests of country BX, thus shaking the foundation of President Domingos's governance, Gu Yu did not lease the ready-made land that had been developed, he chose a piece of coastal land, the terrain is not too good, and the soil is not very suitable for farming, the total area of this land has reached 5,000 square kilometers, the annual rent is 12 tons of gold, the lease period is 99 years, and the lease can be renewed at the expiration of the lease.

Paying the bill with gold is not only Gu Yu's proposal, but also something that President Dominguez likes to see. After all, there is still a risk of depreciation in the US dollar, and gold is a hard currency that will not depreciate at any time. Being able to add so much gold to the treasury every year is also of great benefit to stabilizing the exchange rate of the currency of BX countries, stabilizing prices, and so on.

Although Gu Yu is not short of dollars, he is even more short of gold, which has been piled up thousands of tons in his private warehouse. And if he wants, he can go to gold mines that no one has yet discovered to mine in the future. Even if he doesn't go to the gold mine, he has money, and he can buy it, but it's a little more troublesome.

Gu Yu and President Domingos walked out of the room hand in hand, and saw that both of them were smiling, and the family, friends and subordinates around President Domingos all showed smiling faces, they knew that their crisis was initially resolved at this time, and their power was preserved.

Gu Yu waved goodbye to President Domingos, and then went to meet with the soldiers of country M who escorted him.

President Domingos, in the name of the BX government, declared the military coup illegal, and ordered all soldiers to return to their respective barracks by the specified time, and those who did not return to the barracks before the time limit were punished as rebels.

Subsequently, Gu Yu conveyed his order to the soldiers of country M, which was to cooperate with the government of country BX to exterminate the rebels of country BX.

The soldiers of country M are happy to do this, not only can they help themselves train their troops, but also make money, so why not.

At the appointed time, the military of country BX realized that things were not going well, except for some diehards, the rest of the army returned to the barracks, they may have other plans, and they may break out in the future, but for now, they have chosen to hibernate and do not confront President Domingos, who has the support of the soldiers of country M.

For those diehards who participated, Gu Yu did not hesitate to issue an order to exterminate them all. He doesn't care at all about who will die between them, anyway, one side is from country M and the other side is BX, it's not dog eat dog, it's about the same. They fought to the death, and all he lost was money.

The military of country BX did not think about fighting hard with the soldiers of country M, after a few small-scale exchanges of fire and the death of some people, the military of country BX saw that they were not the opponents of country M, so they retreated one after another, and the soldiers did not take the opportunity to chase into the barracks, in that case, there will definitely be more fierce conflicts, and they will definitely have casualties, in order to earn Gu Yu's rent, they will put their lives into it, which is not suitable.

Gu Yu didn't force the soldiers of country M to rush into the barracks of the military of country BX, he just needed the regular army of country BX not to make trouble and be able to maintain order in country BX. For the rest, take your time later.
