Mo Ye was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Okay! I'll be honest, we're guessing, because there are crocodiles, and yesterday it was said that the most famous place in Southeast Asia to produce crocodile skin is Papua New Guinea, and from your performance just now, I know that I was right.

"Fraud? Bright young people, however, don't know that too smart people don't live long? Andrei said.

"Are you the Bougainville Revolutionary Army?" Professor Johnson exclaimed in surprise.

"Haha, there's another smart guy here." Andre pointed his gun at Old Man Johnson.

"Are you really the Bougainville Revolutionary Army? How can it be? Didn't you lay down your arms and reconcile with the government forces? Professor Johnson said with a little pale.

"Since you know that we are the Bougainville Revolutionary Army, you should know that at that time some of our people surrendered, not some reconciliation, and reconciliation would unilaterally disarm us?" Andrei said with a smile.

"It seems that this is really Bougainville, but I didn't expect you to resurrect it." Professor Johnson smiled wryly.

"It's not a resurgence, but we have never given up, look at our people, they are still unclothed, and you people, you people, actually have the money to go to archaeology, I don't know what treasures we found?" Andrei said sarcastically.

"Can you blame us for not covering your body?" Mo Evil Dao.

"Yes, this is your own choice, you can choose to get out of the jungle, now in this society, as long as you are hardworking, how can you live so down?" At this time, the white that Mo Ye had seen before walked over and said.

"You seem to be called Alyssa? Vice President of Oak Teddy Mining? Hehe, it's ironic, do you still want us to mine for you after we get out of the jungle? This is our land, every grass and tree here, even every stone, belongs to us.

And now, you are standing on our land, enslaving our compatriots, to make money for you, and it is nothing to make money, after all, we ourselves have no money to develop, but you have earned the money, what is left for us?

After the destruction of the environment, polluted water, barren land, sick absenteeism, and people who have become poor again, and in this way, we still have to thank you? Are we really uncivilized savages?

Madam, your ransom is 100 million dollars, and if you don't, I will regret to tell you that you will not be shot, but will marry one of them as atonement, and in the future, your children and grandchildren will be like them, unclothed, and maybe a small cold can kill them. ”

With that, Andre smiled a demonic smile at Alyssa.

"You've already found out that this is Bougainville, right?" Mo Ye looked at this woman, and at that time she seemed to say that these kidnappers were pirates.

"A mining company in Melbourne? The hands of Australians are really long enough. Zhou Hongbo walked over from not far away and said sarcastically.

"I remember that it was the Australians who started the civil war, right? Aren't you Bougainville Revolutionary Army and Australians in the same group? Professor Johnson said.

"Us? If it's a gang, now they're able to get benefits? Andrei said with an angry face.

Mo Ye looked at Andre speechlessly, these people are not good birds, Australians obviously support the PNG banner, but they don't know who supports Andre behind them.

However, whoever it was, it seems that they were being used as guns, but it is no wonder why those people supported the local rebellion? Not for profit?

Now that Australia's mining companies are already mining copper, it is natural that their side has lost.

Rebels who have no one to support will naturally have to surrender or hide in the primeval jungle like lost dogs.

At this time, Mo Ye also knew what was going on on the island of Bougainville, which belonged to the Autonomous Province of Bougainville, one of the 20 provinces of Papua New Guinea and the only autonomous province in it.

Bougainville Island is the largest island in the Solomon Islands in the southwest Pacific Ocean, with a slight northwest-southeast trend, 120 kilometers long from north to south, 64-96 kilometers wide from east to west, and an area of about 10,000 square kilometers.

Including Buka Island at the northwestern tip of the island, it has a population of about 140,000, mainly Melanesians, and about 6,000 people from Europe.

The administrative center of Arava is in the eastern part of the island, which is one of the best areas of Bougainville.

It is hot and rainy all year round, the coastal plain has fertile soil, the interior is densely forested, and most of the residents are engaged in agriculture, mainly producing sweet potatoes, bananas, coconuts, cocoa, coffee, etc.

The southeast of the island is rich in copper ore, with an estimated copper ore reserves of 900 million tons, and the abundant copper ore resources were discovered in the 60s, which became the main copper export destination of PNG.

Since 1972, the copper mining area centered on the emerging mining town of Panguna has been selected and sent to the east coast port for export by pipeline, becoming Papua New Guinea's main export commodity, generally accounting for more than 40% of the country's total export value.

Because the PNG government and copper mining companies do not pay much attention to the protection of the local environment during the mining process, and there is no effective mechanism for giving back benefits, many local islanders are resistant.

In 1975, on the eve of PNG's independence, the local government declared itself the Northern Solomon Republic, which was soon abolished.

In 1990, the rebel group led by Francis Ona declared independence again, but the PNG government imposed an economic blockade on the island and sent troops to suppress it, leading to a protracted armed conflict.

Between 1989 and 2001, before the Pakistani government reached a comprehensive peace agreement with the Burundi factions, Bougainville was estimated to have killed 12,000 people, or nearly 7 percent of the population.

In 2001, Papua New Guinea and Bougainville signed the Bougainville Peace Agreement, ending the 12-year war and allowing them to hold an independence referendum and form an autonomous government at the end of the year.

Currently, Bougainville is the only autonomous region in Papua New Guinea.

The situation is complicated, and to put it simply, Britain and Australia support the PNG government, and Solomon supports the Bougainvilleans.

Because Bougainvilleans are different from the rest of PNG, they have dark skin, and they are of the same race and the same ethnic group as Solomon.

Of course, the situation is not so simple, for example, the nearby Solomon Islands is not peaceful, because of race, the British Solomon Islands Protectorate West Islands, which accounts for about one-third of the population of the Solomon Islands, also wants to join Bougainville after independence.

It was for these reasons that Bougainville returned to Papua New Guinea in 1976 with the intervention of the international community and the PNG government.

And Solomon has always wanted to integrate Bougainville because they are all Melanesians, the same people.

Now the people of Bougainville have decided to hold a referendum in 19, and this time is not far off, and this is because there are people who want to jump out and make a big incident, and they want to make a big incident, so they have made the hijacking.

Knowing the whole story, Mo Ye looked at Andre differently.

Originally, he thought that Andre was really a local, but now it seems that he was also hired, or simply out of his own ambition, or with the support of the forces behind him, and came to make trouble.

These people are all unprofitable guys, they kidnapped hostages, and they got Mo Xie on the head, Mo Ye couldn't help but hit them.

Glancing at the militants here, there were only a dozen people with guns, and they were all white, and the locals who were doing business, all of them were in tattered clothes, and they were the real natives.

The natives here are indeed very poor, even when they were independent, they were just weapons left over from World War II in the jungle, they were really called Hanako troops, otherwise, PNG, which only had a few thousand troops, would not be able to beat them.

And Andre and these people, no matter what the reason is, provoke regional turmoil again, which makes Mo Xie hate, after all, the war has started, and it is the poor who are hurt the most.

Of course, the natives here must not be very honest, these white mercenaries want to make trouble, they must unite with the local natives, otherwise what can a dozen of them do?

Now that he didn't see the locals participating, Mo Xie was quite relieved, there were only a dozen people, he just wanted to, and he could get them in minutes.

Therefore, Mo Xie didn't want to continue to talk nonsense with Andre, anyway, he knew everything he should know, and if he wanted to, he would have solved these conspirators directly.

Mo Xie walked into the makeshift market, and as the number of people increased, the supplies here became more and more abundant, and at this time, there was not only sago paste for sale, but also some meat, fur, and fish.

"Huh? Is this tuna? Mo Xie looked at a big fish that was almost a meter long, how did it look like a tuna.

Mo Xie really didn't expect that these locals could still catch tuna, which is really a bit surprising.

"There's nothing strange about it, tuna is caught, you don't need to be very skilled, as long as you have a fishing rod, you're lucky, or you're an old fisherman who is familiar with tuna habits." Zhou Hongbo walked over and said.

At this time, Professor Johnson also came over: "This is albacore tuna, which is the smallest tuna, and it is not surprising to catch tuna here, PNG is an important fishing ground in the world, and it is also a major exporter of tuna." ”

Mo Xie was stunned for a moment, in this case, this small country should be very rich, the population is not large, the sea area is vast, and the production is abundant, why is it still so poor?

Not to mention gold and copper, the country has a 200-nautical-mile economic zone after independence, with a fishing area of 2.3 million square kilometers, making it the third largest fishing area in the South Pacific.
