Chapter 294: National Debt
Cui Bo and Gao Yang's thoughts are actually the same, they can't take care of other people's money, and it's not good to take out the money in a high-profile manner, so as not to inadvertently stand on the moral high ground and embarrass the people who didn't want to take out the money, so they sent the money to Mayid one after another, and then quickly met people with the same idea.
After taking a deep breath, Majd hugged Gao Yang with one arm, and chuckled: "The five of you, even the words are similar, you are really all the same kind of people, I, I really don't know what to say." ”
Gao Yang said very casually: "Okay, don't talk about this, the money we take from you is not too small, and besides, we don't lack this money, what do we care about so much." ”
At this time, Cui Bo slapped his hand and said loudly: "How about it, let me tell you, I will say that Brother Yang must take out the money, right." ”
Li Jinfang glanced at Cui Bo, and said with a disdainful expression: "Second goods, it seems that others don't say so, hey, pony, don't ink, it's time to eat there, hurry up and eat, I haven't bothered to eat all day today, I'm starving." ”
Grolev walked to Majd's side and said with a smile: "Okay, I'm still the commander of the navy and the commander of artillery, although I am already the predecessor, well, this money is nothing to us, in fact, you really don't need to take it too seriously." ”
Majd nodded and said in a deep voice: "I don't know what to say, and I don't want to say anything more, thank you, thank you, as long as the Skull Gang still exists." As long as the Skeleton Gang isn't dead. Then you will always be the closest comrades and friends of the Skull Gang. Also, I borrowed this money from you, no, no, it wasn't borrowed by me, it was borrowed by the Skeleton Gang, and if we unify the whole of Somalia, taking this money will be considered a national debt. I promise, the money will be paid back to you. ”
Gao Yang Ha smiled and said: "Okay, the ambition is not small, now treat this money as a national debt, okay, we are waiting for you, when the Skull Gang will unify Somalia, you can pay us back again, remember to calculate more interest when the time comes." The national debt, it's too stingy. ”
The crowd was laughing. Gao Yang patted Majed's shoulder casually, and said with a smile: "If you really take down the whole of Somalia, then you will be the president, but don't forget that I am the first commander-in-chief of the Fourth Army, and when the time comes, write my name into the textbook, Ha Luha, by the way, my real name is Gao Yang, high and low, flying Yang, not the Yang of the poplar." ”
Majd also smiled and said, "I finally know your real name, so Commander Gao, should we get acquainted again, and then formally talk about how to return the national debt you provided to Somalia in your private capacity to Somalia under the Coalition for Justice and Justice." ”
Gao Yang also smiled, and said: "What's the hurry, we still have more opportunities to deal with each other in the future, I haven't told you that we will always be mixed in the Gulf of Aden, we have set up a maritime security company, remember to let your people not ask us for money when the time comes." ”
Majd immediately said, "Really? That's great, we can see each other from time to time, and when our conditions are good, I will treat you well, as for your company, it goes without saying, within the control of the Skull Gang, your company's business is the Skull Gang's business, and you can only talk about it. ”
After a knowing smile, Gao Yang shook Majd's hand again, only this time they were shaking hands as friends, not the mercenary and his employer.
Cui Bo and the others also shook hands with Majd in turn, and reported their real names, and after getting acquainted again, Gao Yang waved his hand and said: "Let's go, find a place to eat, rabbit, go and call the test tube, let him eat and rest." ”
Frye said hurriedly: "Attention, the test tube is out, and everyone pretends to be fine." ”
Gao Yang glanced back, but saw that Bruce also came over with a bag, Gao Yang smiled apologetically at Majd, and said: "The test tube just joined us, not as rich as us, this, there are some things that don't need to be told to him." ”
Majd nodded again and again, "I understand, I understand." ”
Bruce, who came over, was obviously stunned for a moment when he saw Gao Yang and a group of them all with Majd, but then he still walked over, and then said in a deep voice: "Didn't you go to dinner?" ”
Cui Bo immediately said: "Isn't this waiting for you, I was about to call you, okay, since you haven't slept, let's go eat together." ”
After hesitating for a moment, Bruce said in a deep voice: "Okay, let's go now, I'm hungry, oh, you go first, I have something to explain to Majd, about, about the wounded." ”
Gao Yang shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, then let's go first, you guys talk about business first, and I'll tell you to eat there later." ”
After finishing speaking, Gao Yang gave Majd a look, and then the five of them went together to find a place to open the fire and cook, but they didn't go far, but they heard Majd shouting from behind: "Come back, you don't have to go, the test tube is the same as you, and the money is here." ”
Gao Yang and the others glanced at each other, but several of them let out a knowing smile, and when they turned around and walked back, Li Jinfang suddenly said, "This person can make friends." ”
Grolev also said in a deep voice: "From the attitude towards money, you can see the essence of a person, I think that the test tube has officially joined us." ”
"Agreed."
"Agreed."
As he walked, as he was about to walk up to Mayid, Gao Yang made a final decision and said, "Okay, it's time to officially accept Bruce as one of our members." ”
After walking back to the original place, Cui Bo said to Bruce: "Test tube, aren't you short of money, why did you take out the money too." ”
Bruce shrugged his shoulders and said with a nonchalant expression: "I used to be short of money, but now I am not short of money, the share that was allocated to me has already freed me from financial difficulties, and I will still have money to take in the security company in the future, so why not give the money to the people who need it most." ”
After all that is said. Bruce spread his hands. He pouted and said, "The Skeletons just took down Bosusa. Well, there are so many places to spend money, at least you need to buy a large number of medicines immediately, and if you don't have money, what can you buy medicine, I don't want the wounded I saved to die of a shortage of medicines. ”
Hearing Bruce talk about the medicine, Gao Yang also became serious and said, "Now we have defeated Bososa. With a deep-water port, many things can be purchased in large quantities, Majd, have you figured out what to buy? ”
Majd immediately said: "Food, medicine, as long as you have these two things, I believe that the residents of Bososa will immediately follow the Skeleton Gang, although Bososa is also a city, but the problem of food shortage is very serious, and food is not expensive if you buy it from other places." I plan to buy a large quantity of grain from Ulyanko at once, as long as the first batch can be solved by the people of the whole city. The rest can be purchased at any time with tolls, the key is this first batch, originally I was still worried about the financial problem of the first batch of food, but now I don't have to worry, with four million dollars, the purchase of the first batch of food and medicine is enough. ”
Although Bososa is already a big city in Somalia, the problem of food shortage is still extremely serious, more than 80 percent of the population is living in a state of hunger, although the price of food is not too expensive, but the people here have no money to buy food, and even if they have, they cannot buy it.
Mokady, who controls Bososa, will not feed the people of a city out of his own pocket, although he will also buy food, but it is enough to fill the belly of his army, and even if he is rich, he will only sell it at a high price.
Fill the stomach of the followers, in a country where starvation is the norm, it is enough to be able to do this, and if you sacrifice this magic weapon, you can be invincible, since you have defeated Bossosa, then the Skull Gang has to take responsibility for the residents of Bososa, and Majed's practice of buying food first must be no problem, but the problem is that the people or gangs before the Skull Gang get food for free, and Gao Yang doesn't know if Mayed intends to copy this practice to Bososa.
"As long as there is money, the food problem can be easily solved, Ulyanko can deliver it in three days at most, the question is how are you going to give food to the residents of Bososa?"
After hearing Gao Yang's question, Majd perked up and said: "I already have a plan, Bososa has a population of about 50,000 people, and after throwing away the money for medicine and freight, the rest is enough to buy 5,000 tons of wheat, which is enough for the whole Bososa to eat for a year, I plan to supply it on a daily basis, one kilogram a day for adults, and half a kilogram a day for children, in general, as long as the toll can be collected, it is not a problem to solve Bososa's food." ”
Gao Yang sighed and said, "You are really an idealist, the problem is your way, no, listen to me, you can't really just give the food to everyone for nothing, doing so will only cultivate a bunch of lazy people, you have to let them contribute to the Skeleton Gang to get food, understand?" ”
Majd frowned and said: "I know that blindly giving is not good, so I plan to distribute food every day, but the problem is that now the Skeleton Gang can't provide other jobs except for the army, they have nothing to do, how can people distribute food according to their work?" ”
Gao Yang shook his head and said: "Since you are the master of Bososa, you have to have a bit of a sense of ownership, if you don't have a chance, then create an opportunity, let's put it this way, the city of Bososa is dirty and messy, it is a big garbage dump, let people clean the neighborhood, how much food can be in a day of work, isn't this a job opportunity." ”
Grolev immediately said: "Before doing anything, you must first register the population, register as a family unit, establish a household register, and the standing army will definitely be expanded, and provide food for families whose families have joined the army, and if everyone has it, then give more to military dependents." ”
Gao Yang also nodded and said: "That's right, since we talked about the army, then the soldiers must also have a salary, not much, but there must be, and the pension of the fallen soldiers or something, you can't let them fight for the ideal all the time, it's okay if the time is short, it's okay if the time is long, but it's hard to say, for ordinary soldiers, it's nothing more than hoping to be able to eat enough, and now they have largely completed their goals, so reasonable rules have to be set from the beginning, So that they have the motivation to continue fighting, and now that they don't have money, everything can be simplified, money or things can be less, even if it's just symbolic, but there must be. ”
Majd nodded and said: "Hearing you say this, my thinking is clear, let everyone have something to do, even if there is nothing to do to find something, well, in fact, Bososa does have a lot to do, clean the streets, build fortifications, and let them exchange their skills for food, and if they don't have skills, then find a way to find a simple job for them, in short, you can't raise a group of lazy people who only know how to stretch out their hands and wait for food, only those who really have no ability to work can enjoy unconditional supply, Those who are purely lazy, let them starve. ”
Gao Yang slapped his hand and said, "That's right, that's what it means, okay, you can't delay buying food, and it's even more urgent to buy medicine, did you call Ulyanko?" ”
Majd smiled: "Not long ago, I was worried about money, and I dared to call Ulyanko." ”
Gao Yang nodded and said: "Yes, Ulyanko, as long as you have money, everything is easy to say, but if you don't have money, then everything needs to be said, okay, you hurry up and call Ulyanko, if it's fast, he can send a batch of food the day after tomorrow, by the way, test tube, is there a shortage of medicines now?" Do I need to schedule an airdrop? ”
After thinking for a while, Bruce shook his head and said: "There is not a shortage of medicines, but there are a few medicines that are consumed very much, it is best to send a batch within three days, otherwise there will be a shortage, I will make a list as soon as possible, and the residents of Bososa need a lot of standing medicines, and the Skeleton Gang doesn't know when the road will encounter a fight, so when purchasing medicines this time, I think I should ask the opinions of local doctors." ”
Mayidha smiled and said, "Aren't you hungry, why do you forget about eating when you talk about things, let's go, talk as you go, the soldiers have begun to take turns to eat, we have to hurry up." ”
A few people talked and laughed and went to dinner, but none of them could have imagined that everything that Gao Yang and Majd joked about would come true, of course, this is all a later story. (To be continued......)
