……

Although these three people carried the identity documents of the dove of peace, the matter they negotiated with Salad Hassan had nothing to do with the dove of peace. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The Presidential Palace, inside a secret meeting room.

John, a white man with a London accent, mentioned to Salad Hassan a large arms order that would arm more than 100,000 men!

Mogadishu has a population of more than 1.5 million, and with the exception of the elderly, weak, women and children who cannot take part in the fighting, this amount of ammunition is enough to arm the entire capital.

This made Salad Hassan excited, it was really "a mountain and a river with no way out, and another village with bright willows and flowers"!

Of course, he didn't know this ancient poem of country Z, but he couldn't help but let out such an exclamation.

But......

He has no money, although this batch of arms is very exciting to him, but what if he has no money?

He could only sigh with admiration!

Just when he was lost, the bespectacled man with a Hong Kong accent came up with a plan......

This is a plan to invest in Smali.

Investing in Mali and helping Mali develop is of course a good thing for Mali to use foreign capital to develop itself.

But......

How can it be so simple?

Investment requires a stable environment.

But now in Mali, the civil war has never stopped, and now the heavy troops outside the capital are crushing the city, like a powder keg, and it is in the moment before the big explosion!

But any reasonable investor would not choose this time to invest in Smali.

There must be a demon when things go wrong, so Salad Hassan frowned, he knew that behind this beautiful investment plan, there must be harsh conditions.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This Hong Kong man's name is Zheng Gangsheng, and he was originally the fourth-ranked vice president of the X Hong Kong branch of Bank Z.

A week ago, he quit his job and joined a new bank, Private Bank, in Port X.

The name of this bank is: Z country x Hong Kong Zhongrong Investment Bank, which is still the vice president, but it is already the second position, and the salary has also increased significantly.

It's just that this high salary is obviously not easy to get, just like now, he needs to come to the capital of Mali, which is in the prelude to a storm!

Of course, he did not come to send money to Smari to invest, but to......

He lifted his glasses and said to Salad Hassan: "Mr. President, we hope to be able to establish a bank in Sma......"

Salad Hassan frowned slightly, but still nodded, this condition was not too much.

“…… Moreover, we hope to ......" Zheng Gangsheng looked at the other party's expression and continued: "...... We would like to have the right to issue the S Mali shilling! ”

Mali has always been in the midst of a civil war, there is no strong central government, the so-called Malian shilling, just a thing in name only, in Mali, the hard currency is the dollar!

So for this condition, Salad Hassan just thought about it for a while, and then nodded and agreed.

Salad Hassan is not unaware of the importance of the right to issue the national currency, and the reason why he agreed so readily is naturally a trade-off.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

First of all, the so-called S-Mali is no longer a country, it is actually in a situation of division between various armed forces.

Moreover, the Smali shilling has long been out of circulation in society, because he does not have a strong regime to back it up, so there is nothing to lose to him by relinquishing its right to issue it.

Secondly, in order for the Smali shilling to circulate, the other side will inevitably need a regime close to him, and will inevitably support him in reunifying Smalia.

Reunify Mali and be the real and well-deserved president of Mali!

If you want to be rewarded, you must learn to give!

So Salad Hassan readily agreed to Zheng Gangsheng's request.

The details of the contract were immediately signed after a while.

Salad Hassan needs dollars and arms right now, and he can't delay for a moment!

Two days later, in the middle of the night, several cargo ships loaded with containers loaded with arms could arm 10,000 people from the port of Karachi, Bakistan, and safely arrived in Mogadishu.

In this batch of munitions, there are not only rifles similar to AK-47, but also a number of machine guns, rocket launchers and other weapons!

Some of these weapons are old and new, but their performance is reliable!

They all have one thing in common: the Z country system!

Along with this batch of weapons arrived three military instructors disguised as fleet workers, whose mission was to teach the Malian military to use them.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Lin Ze had the idea of participating in the arms trade, but he did not have such a background.

But the government of country Z said otherwise.

With the beginning of the modernization and reform of the armed forces since the second generation of leaders, the Z side has accumulated a large number of old-fashioned weapons.

Not to mention the weapons manufactured and sealed in the arsenal during the strategic period of "digging deep holes, accumulating grain, and not seeking hegemony" under the nuclear intimidation of country M!

The manufacture of those weapons was carried out under the instructions of the whole people to prepare for war, so we can imagine that their number and scale are incredible!

In a word, the current country Z has a large number of old weapons that need to be shot!

It is unrealistic for country Z to send troops to Mali, but it is in his interests to take advantage of the tense situation in Mali to sell arms on a large scale!

The white man named John was an arms trader in country Z overseas.

That Zheng Gangsheng and him are not all the way, he comes from Zhongrong Investment Bank in X Port, this bank was established not long ago, and it belongs to Yongchang Bank in the mainland!

And Yongchang Bank, under Lin Ze's name.

It turned out that Lin Ze received a call from Vice Chairman H not long ago, and after some discussion, they joined forces and participated in the arms trade in Mali.

Although this was a bit unexpected by Lin Ze, it could not change the overall situation overall.

Although Mogadishu has a population of more than 1.5 million, the population of the sphere of influence of the tribal armed and anti-government and warlord forces far exceeds him, and as long as they have enough weapons, their strength is still greater than that of Salad Hassan!

When he can't hold it anymore and asks the international community for help, and the international community will inevitably stand by, it will be the time for the mercenaries to enter Sama!
