Chapter 636: What Libya Sees and Hears
In the past, Libya was definitely one of the richest countries in Africa! In 2009, it was ranked first in the whole of Africa! And Libya's welfare is the highest in Africa, and there is no one!
From the poorest country in the world in 1951 to the richest country in Africa, Kafiza is really indispensable!
At that time, Libyans were free of electricity bills! As long as they got married, the government would reward 500,000 yuan, enough to buy an apartment in any city in Libya!
When Libyans want to buy a car, the government will subsidize half of the cost, which will greatly reduce the pressure on the people.
All farmers have free land, a family of four will have about 170 acres of land, and the government will provide all agricultural tools, machinery, fertilizers, seeds, livestock, houses, etc. for free!
For each child, the government rewards $5,000;
If you don't have a job, if you are a college student, the government will subsidize you according to the average salary of your major, but at that time, Libya had 25% university education! 90% of Libyan people were literate, which is close to many European countries, and it is almost like any African and Arab country!
Education and medical care are also completely free, the price of fuel is less than one-tenth of the international price, and the price of food is very cheap under state regulation, only a few cents a pound of bread!
And as a Muslim country, Libyan law says that loans are free of interest!
Kafiza himself even spent tens of billions of dollars to build a 3,000-kilometer 'Great Artificial River' project, turning many desert areas into arable farmland! This is the largest project of its kind in the world, but unfortunately during the civil war, some of them were blown up by the Stars and Stripes.
As an oil-producing country, Libya is owned by the oil industry, and 50 percent of the profits from the sale of oil will be directly transferred to all the people! The average income of ordinary people in the past could reach $15,000! This is much better than most countries in the world! At that time, there was not a single homeless or beggar in the whole of Libya!
THIS NIMA IS EVEN MORE SHEHUIISM THAN SHEHUIISM, OKAY?
Everything has been shared! You know, Libya really doesn't have much oil compared to those big Arab oil countries! Look at other oil powers, where do they have such policies that directly benefit the common people?
But some people just don't accept it, after all, Kafiza is too rich.
Although he shared most of the wealth from oil with the people, he was one of the richest people in the world. The royal family of Hetesa is a level, and every time he goes abroad, he likes to show off his wealth, which makes some Libyans blush, although he likes to clean up corrupt officials, likes to defeat corruption, and does not just stay in words, and his policy is also around this ideal, but many Libyans still feel that the country is too corrupt, and feel that Kafiza is the most corrupt obstacle!
They can't see how the Kafiza family deals with corruption, they can only see the gap between themselves and the Kafiza family, 'not suffering from widowhood but suffering from inequality', why are you so rich?
So on October 20, 2011, the Libyan dictator Kafiza was shot dead, and the Libyan masses at that time cheered in the streets, the 'Arab Spring' has come, and they will live the 'beautiful', 'cooked', and 'rich' life that Western countries have portrayed to everyone.
As a result, a few years have passed, and what is Libya like now?
Those who killed Kafiza at the behest of Western countries suddenly found that 'we thought our country would become Dubai, but we didn't expect it to become Somalia'. Now Libya is in constant turmoil, the country is divided, and the forces of various factions are fighting every day, and the richest country in Africa has become a ruin.
You ask them if they regret it? It's too late to regret it.
There are really too many such people, complaining about the country every day, complaining about the country, and even a little longing for war, thinking that war will bring a new dynasty, and maybe there is a chance to become the founding father of a new dynasty or turn over, look at the example of Libya, don't you think you are stupid?
Because they are disgusted with the so-called 'tyranny' and because they yearn for the so-called 'freedom', Libya is gone, are they free?
Xiao Peng went to Libya this time, although there are now political party disputes in Libya, weapons are rampant, militias are rampant, and security is extremely poor, but Xiao Peng's safety can be guaranteed.
Why is this so? Because no matter which faction, they all regard Xiao Peng as a nobleman who has bridged their faction with those Western nobles. In the end, each faction sent its own representative to protect Xiao Peng's safety.
When the Chinese people go, whether it is the government armed forces, the local armed forces, or the militia organizations, although they themselves have contradictions, they have to send people to protect the Chinese people.
In Libya, Xiao Peng also enjoyed this treatment.
Despite the chaos and war in Libya, there are many other countries that continue to come to the country. Not so much to make money, but because Libya is a shortcut to Africa!
Every year, tens of thousands of people cross the Mediterranean Sea through Libya and smuggle them into the country. Now in Libya, some organizations have obtained enough income through smuggling!
So many people will be kidnapped and waiting for ransom, but in recent years, people have become poorer and poorer, and there are fewer and fewer rich, so under the lure of money, the slave trade has begun to run rampant, and many people have been kidnapped and simply sold publicly, and they put people on the street and hang a sign with it directly written for sale, which is not uncommon in the local area.
There are also people who pay for their own travel expenses, thinking about what to smuggle to Heda Pear, but as soon as they arrive in Libya, they are sold directly.
Every year, Libya welcomes thousands of refugees, mostly from sub-Saharan African countries, either to escape the war or to earn money to support their families. As a result, when I finally arrived at the refugee camp, I was directly taken out and sold by people from the local illegal organization.
Women are usually sold to JI-in. They are more valuable than men, some are forced to 'work' there, some are waiting to be sold, and the price of a young woman is less than 10,000 yuan, which is several times more expensive than men.
The price of men is also high and low, depending on their skills.
A 'strong laborer capable of farm work' is more than 1,000 Libyan dinars, or less than 5,000.
Of course, this is much more expensive than buying slaves in other countries in Africa! In Sudan, a rifle can be exchanged for several young slaves. In Niger, a child slave costs less than $100, and many slave traders choose to transport child slaves to Libya to sell them to earn the difference。。。。。。
Many people think that slavery is gone now, but in fact, there are at least 20 million slaves in the world, most of them from Africa!
Even today, slavery is still prevalent in countries like Mauritania, Sudan, and Niger! Just like the caste system in India, there are slaves from generation to generation.
Let's take Mauritania, a country with a total population of just over 2.4 million, and about 500,000 slaves! 1/5 of the country's population! Slaves have no rights and are not allowed to own any property!
They have not tried to abolish slavery, starting in 1981 and to the present day, there have been three attempts to abolish slavery, and even enacted draconian laws: slave owners will be sentenced to ten years in prison.
But to this day, slaves are still everywhere there.
But there is also a difference, those countries have always existed in slavery, which is a historical legacy. And the slave trade in Libya is an anti-human-human existence.
This 'Uba Uba' was bought by Xiao Peng.
When Xiao Peng saw a row of black people standing on the street with signs for sale, he had no idea of continuing to play in Libya.
The few people accompanying him also felt very embarrassed when they saw Xiao Peng like this, and wanted to drive away all those slave traders----- not only the Chinese people knew that 'family ugliness should not be publicized', but also the Libyan people.
Xiao Peng wants to take these slaves away, but he really doesn't know what to do------ if he really does that, then can he get out of Libya alive or is another matter----- cutting off people's wealth is like killing parents!
As for buying all these slaves and bringing them back? There are at least tens of thousands of slaves here waiting to be bought and sold! How much will it cost Xiao Peng?
Xiao Peng really regretted going to Libya, and felt that his conscience was damaged when he saw this scene. As a result, just as he was about to leave the country in his car, he couldn't help it.
That's where she saw Uba Uba.
She was being whipped by several slave traders.
It was a convoy of four pickup trucks, all of whom were heavily armed, I don't know which armed group, and there were several cows in the back of the pickup truck.
When Xiao Peng passed, he directly pointed a gun at Xiao Peng. Fortunately, Xiao Peng's bodyguards were still there, and after one of them showed his identity, the other party put down his weapon.
Then the other party explained that they were XX armed security patrol team, and found three girls at the border, who were suspects who wanted to smuggle across the border and endanger the country, and when they wanted to arrest them, they encountered strong resistance, and finally killed two of them, caught this female spy, and was tortured and interrogated about her criminal purpose!
Xiao Peng found out that there were two corpses not far away, both of them were Maasai people, looking at their height and dress.
Regarding their excuses, Xiao Peng could only scold the 'grass mud horse' in his heart.
Nima Libya is still smuggling across the border to endanger national security? Do you still have a country? Obviously, you just grabbed the girl and was about to sell it, why are you talking so high?
In this case, Xiao Peng can even figure out why with his toes.
The grazing Maasai were abducted by these men, along with men and cattle. wanted to escape or resist, but two people were killed, and this one was also abused.
If he didn't save this girl, Xiao Peng felt that his conscience had been whipped, and he might not be able to sleep well in this life.
I paid 3,000 US dollars, and I got two pieces of silver. This so-called terrorist who 'threatens national security' has become Xiao Peng's personal belongings. As for the six cows in the car, forget it, let it be Xiao Peng's reward for supporting their 'patrol' and 'doing their duty for the country', just ask them for help, dig a pit, and bury the two dead girls。。。。。。
Leaving Libya with Uba Uba, Xiao Peng asked her to go back to her village, only to find out that things are really not that simple!
It turned out that Uba Uba and the two girls both escaped。。。。。。
Modern civilization has a lot of influence on the Maasai people, the tourists who come here have brought money to the Maasai people, their life is no longer centered on cattle, the enlightened Maasai people have begun to go out of the grassland, to work in the city, the rich tribes have begun to use bricks, cement to build houses, traditional customs, such as circumcision, knocking on the front teeth, ear piercing, lion hunting, many young Maasai have rarely seen it.
But some traditions still exist, such as weddings and funerals. It was really poor, and the poorer and poorer he became, and Uba Uba was sold by her father to the local master of ceremonies for a high price of fifteen cows.
Among the Maasai people, this master of ceremonies is a high-powered, rich and powerful person, who works well and sings every night, and the tribe where the master of ceremonies is located has a primary school, and dozens of children in the school are all children of this master of ceremonies!
Think about it, there is nothing to do every day, all the entertainment activities are to make villains to play, plus you can marry a lot of wives, it is not strange to have so many children, but now in modern civilized society, no culture is not good, so the master of ceremonies simply invited a teacher and built a school for his dolls to study.
Surely it will not work to marry such a man!, so Uba Uba was about to run away, which was echoed by the other two girls in their village------ who were also going to be sold.
The three of them went together and prepared to go to Egypt to find a new life.
As a result, when she was on the Libyan border, she was arrested, and the three tried to resist, but two were killed, and she did not escape. He was taken back and whipped there.
If she hadn't met Xiao Peng, she would have been caught on the streets of Libya now, with a sign around her neck, or she would have been sold directly to the JI Academy.
Or the latter is a little more likely, after all, the Maasai people.
As the tallest people in the world on average, the Maasai have a nomadic life all year round, which ensures that their size is very popular in the slave market, both men and women, and can be sold for a high price!
These are the exact words that those slave traders told Xiao Peng in person!
If Uba Uba wants to leave Africa, he has to be a good person to the end, and it is not difficult for Xiao Peng to take someone away.
But it's still this decision that could change her life!
So under Xiao Peng's operation, the Maasai Uba Uba is gone, and the Egyptian Uba Uba has appeared, and she is now Xiao Peng's tour guide, accompanying Xiao Peng to Europe!
