"If we want to be big, so big that all pirates want to give us face, then we have to have an independent intelligence system, we have to have our own money laundering channels, and of course, our own training base, you can't let a group of fishermen who only use AK47s drive speedboats as pirates, right? You wouldn't drive a speedboat aimlessly in the middle of the sea looking for a target? Zhang Yang said lightly. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Endburton fell silent for a while, although he was a pirate, he was just an ordinary pirate, just a pirate who carried out orders, he never thought that being a pirate would have so much knowledge.

"First of all, we have to build a territory, in this territory, no matter what happens, we are in charge, no matter how big the force comes here, we must nod our heads, if we just kidnap a few oil tankers and cargo ships in the sea, then, sooner or later, one day, we will be wiped out by others, and in the future, within this radius of 200 kilometers, it is our force, can you do it?"

"Ah...... This one...... This one...... There are many clans and armed ......" Endburton stammered, he could not have imagined that this young man could have such great ambitions.

"We have money, we have people, we have things that they don't have, so, we can do it, the mines here, the resources here, we have to monopolize them, for example, as you said, there is beryl and gypsum here, we can bring in foreign capital to develop it, we can go through the legal procedures with the local government, and no one can dig up a stone here without our nod......"

"We're not just pirates, we're trade, we're going to exploit the resources here. Drive the economy here, guide the people here to get rich, piracy is just a side business, not the main business, piracy is just a channel for us to fund, not our ultimate goal, not to mention, now in the waters of Somalia. Multinational warships have gathered to escort them, and it is no longer so easy to kidnap oil tankers and cargo ships, and being a pirate is only temporary!

The flamboyant words were sensational, and he drew a huge blueprint for the village. Not only was Endburton fascinated by what he heard, but several of his cousins and cousins were also fanatical in listening, and if they could really do what they said, there was no doubt that their status here would be as high as ever!

"Okay, that's all for today's meeting, today, you go out and gather some folks to understand some actual situations. Let's see if there are any urgent issues to be solved here, and let's not divulge our goal of being a pirate for now, I think, even if it is a pirate, it should be a few months away. We have not yet set up an intelligence system. By the way, now that you're home, your former boss is dead, will anyone suspect you? Zhang Yang asked.

"Definitely. I know that I'm rich now, even if I didn't do it, some people will associate it with me, but there is nothing to worry about, in Somalia, as long as there is power. No one dares to do anything to whom. Besides, I am now in my own tribe. Our original pirate organization was a scattered organization, and no one would avenge him, and in Somalia, no one died that day? Enderburton was a little bold, and said disapprovingly.

"Very good, don't leave the village in the near future, if someone retaliates, that is, during this time, avoid the limelight first, in addition, discuss more with Li Bo, in the future, he will cooperate with you in matters here." Zhang Yang nodded at the old man, this sentence is undoubtedly a decentralization.

"Yes!"

Endburton hugged the old man very warmly, and the old man was very reserved and majestic, which made Endburton a little embarrassed.

After the meeting ended, everyone was busy, the old man began to inspect the fast territory, began to measure some land, and called his satellite phone from time to time, and he didn't know what he was doing, while Zhang Yang and Aze Liu Biao wandered around the village together.

"Zhang Yang, are you really ready to develop here for a long time?" Liu Biao asked.

"Hmm." Bold eyes are fixed on the field.

"Is it necessary?" Liu Biao smashed his mouth and said.

"Don't you think it's good to be a soil emperor here? Think about it, here, you can do whatever you want, there is no morality, there is no law, you can build your own power, you can have your own territory, you rule here like a king, your every word will be carried out, and it will be regarded as a holy decree ......by others."

"But it'...... It's so poor here that we can only invest, and there's almost no ......return except for being pirates," Liu Biao said depressedly.

"Poor?" Zhang Yang couldn't help laughing and said: "Is Somalia poor? ”

"Aren't you poor?!" Liu Biao's eyes glanced at the dilapidated houses around him, and he pursed his mouth.

"It seems that you don't know about Somalia, Somalia is not poor, and you just heard that there are two expensive minerals in this village alone, beryl and gypsum, in fact, Somalia is very rich in minerals, including iron, tin, manganese, tungsten, nickel, chromium, magnesium, zinc, aluminum, uranium, quartz, beryl and gypsum. In addition, there is oil and gas. With the exception of beryl and gypsum, most of the deposits are unexplored. Fishery resources are abundant, even if we can't afford to exploit those minerals, as long as we monopolize the nearby fisheries, it will be enough for us to make ......."

"Gypsum, just listen to the name and know that it's not worth much, don't think about those metals, I'm a layman and I know, if you want to dig those metals, it's not a little bit of money, by the way, what is beryl?" Liu Biao is still not interested, his favorite thing is to kidnap oil tankers with fast money, and it is best to rob banks, this kind of investment, he is not interested in the return cycle for too long.

"Beryl is a type of gemstone, beryl was only used as a gemstone before the 20s of the last century, and later it was discovered that beryl contains the rare element beryllium, and it became a mineral with industrial use. Good quality beryl is a very precious gemstone. In addition, the gypsum you are talking about is not useless, but very useful, gypsum is the main raw material for the production of gypsum cementitious materials and gypsum building products, which can be used to make paper gypsum board, fiber gypsum board, decorative gypsum board, gypsum hollow slats and gypsum blocks...... Very versatile......"

“…… Jewel ......" Liu Biao's eyes glowed with golden light.

"Hehe, don't think about it for a while. The investment cycle of these ores is too long, and we can't invest in them, but we can wait until we take control of this place to get the mining rights from the Somali government, and then sell the mining rights to some investment businessmen in the country to provide them with protection. "Zhang Yang knows very well that no matter how big his power is here, but. In Somalia, there has always been a legitimate puppet government, and as long as it gets the government's approval, it can plunder resources here with impunity and legitimacy.

"Good idea. When the time comes, we will sit and collect the money, quack...... Zhang Yang, what are you doing? Liu Biao saw Zhang Yang take out paper and pen from his bag, and kept calculating something.

"This is our first base, so we have to get the support of the local people, otherwise. There are constraints on everything, and the best way to win the hearts and minds of the people is to do something that they can see, such as fixing this improvised road, building a simple water system, and maintaining the broken power grid here. Restoring satellite TV, in fact, these things do not cost much, but they can improve the lives of the locals. Well, there is also tap water, and a waterworks are needed here......" Zhang Yang made a note.

"Haha, yes, yes, after we build a satellite TV base station, we will drag a shipload of outdated TV sets in China to buy it. We provide them with the opportunity to earn money. Then, they took the money out of them...... High. High, too high, really high......"

"Clever!" Aze interjected lukewarmly, and Liu Biao, who was already triumphant, glared at Aze viciously as if he had been choked by the throat, but unfortunately, Aze had a sharp waist knife in his hand, which exuded an eerie glow in the sun.

"Hehe, it's a good idea, in fact, as long as a place has land and mining resources, it is easy to develop, not to mention, we can get a steady stream of wealth from the Gulf of Aden to subsidize here, so it is easy to want to develop, well, I almost forgot, it's spring, it's about to reach the sowing season, it seems that we have to find a way to get a little high-quality seed from the country, if we can control the seeds of Somalia, then, we almost control the whole of Somalia, We need to gradually replace the traditional cash crops in Somalia with high-quality seeds from the country, and when the time comes, no matter what tricks Enderburton wants to play, it will not escape our hands......"

A grim smile flashed on Zhang Yang's face, allowing China's high-quality seeds to replace another country's cash crops is undoubtedly stuck in the throat of this country, in many countries, in order to avoid being controlled by other countries in the source of food, they would rather have a low yield than dare to import high-yield seeds.

In fact, the Chinese government has made high-quality crop seeds a strategic substance.

If some of the smuggled seeds come and slowly replace them, after the local farmers have tasted the sweetness, when one end cannot control the place, the source of the seeds will be cut off, and the local economy will immediately fall into a state of collapse......

It is completely a relationship of mutual use with Enderboton, and the power and human resources of the Endbulton clan are used to promote the use of the strength and human resources of the Enderburton clan, and of course, it also includes enough space for development. Endburton, on the other hand, used the funds provided by Zhang Yang to strengthen himself and seek the greatest benefit for the tribe.

Zhang Yang can't check and balance Enderton, and Enderburton doesn't need to check and balance Zhangyang, so Zhang Yang must find something from some interests to balance Enderburton. For example, the control of seeds, the investors of minerals, as well as the informants of major ports, and the intermediaries of negotiations, all need to be directly controlled by Zhang Yang......

Of course, there is a lot to think about, and he also needs to register countless shell companies around the world, provide legal passports and documents for the Somali pirates, provide legal channels for his own money laundering, and so on.

Naturally, the old man's old fox will handle many things, and for him, he is familiar with these jobs, as long as he has money, he has a way.

It wasn't until two o'clock in the afternoon that Zhang Yang completed the investigation of this village within a radius of more than ten kilometers, and the entire village had been drawn into a map in his mind. Now the financial resources are insufficient, so I can only take this village as the center and slowly radiate.

When the three of them returned to the big house, Endburton was standing outside the house with forty young black men tall and tall, crowded, as if they were lecturing, while the old man sat in a chair with a teacup.

Zhang Yang could see that these forty people were extremely excited. One by one, they looked very enviously at the four black men in crisp suits standing behind the old man, these four black men were the four guys who walked barefoot at night, and the old man had already taken them under his command, now. The four of them are role models for the whole village.

Seeing these forty young black people of about 1.8 meters, he was overjoyed and ran over to look in circles, of course, Liu Biao didn't know that in the fast land of Africa, because of race and nutrition problems, it was very difficult to find a person of 1.8 meters. In order to find these forty people, Endburton almost turned over the entire tribe before satisfying Liu Biao's request, and almost half of them were less than 1.8 meters.

Liu Biao naturally didn't care, the one-meter-eight requirement was just a vague concept, for Liu Biao. As long as you go out, a few black people wearing sunglasses and black suits follow behind, which is enough to be satisfied, enough to pull the style. Soon, Endburton handed over forty black youths to Liu Biao.

And Zhang Yang called Enderburton aside.

"This is one of the main roads in the village. It needs to be repaired, and from tomorrow, you organize labor in the village to repair the road, first repair a rough blank, and then use mechanization when possible, or simply build a cement road, well. This labor is calculated at twice the rate of your wages here. We pay for it, and you register the amount of work. After that, let them receive their wages at Lieber's place, by the way, the wages can be paid every day, understand? Zhang Yang took out his notebook and drew a few lines in several places where he began to record.

"Ah...... What are we building roads for? Endburton was dumbfounded, he had never thought of building roads, in fact, he was thinking more about gathering wealth quickly than spending it.

Zhang Yang couldn't help but sigh, although this person is a character, he is short-sighted and selfish. However, this reassures Zhang Yang that this kind of person is easier to control.

"We have to look a little further, as a member of the tribe, don't just think about how you will get rich, you have an obligation to lead your tribe to prosperity, you have an obligation to make everyone in the tribe rich, not a small number of people, understand?"

"Understood......" Endburton looked ashamed, and looked at Zhang Yang's eyes with more respect, and at this time, he really believed that this Asian really wanted to help him and help his local tribe.

"In addition, after the road can be opened to traffic, immediately call the construction team, we need a closed place as a training base and ammunition storage, there must be an underground building, today I have seen, the wasteland in Nayi Mountain is very good, the line of sight is very good, easy to defend and difficult to attack, on the top of the mountain is also included in the training area, build a watchtower...... Well, you ask Lieber, he will tell you how to do it, you can contact the building materials later, I won't be here for long, I hope that when I leave, all the works will be started, it doesn't matter if it's expensive, anyway, the money is also earned by the people of your tribe, the key is speed, speed! Do you understand? ”

"Understood!" Enderburton nodded heavily, at this time, he was completely convinced that this young man who was silent was really making a long-term plan.

"Go and do it now, time is very tight, by the way, do you have the channel to contact the pirates who kidnapped the tanker of the Siberian Oil Company?" Zhang Yang asked.

"Yes...... There are three of them, but the owner of the one we kidnapped is dead, and we don't know what the situation is. Endburton hesitated.

"Well, you contact these three first, as long as these three oil tankers are done, the remaining one will naturally come to us, you tell them, we can pay first, 1.8 million, as long as they promise to pay, our money will arrive immediately."

"But what if they don't release the ship?" Enderboton worried.

"Is there a precedent for not releasing the ship after receiving money?" Zhang Yang said lightly.

"No ......"

"So what are you worried about? If anyone doesn't give money, we can just find an excuse to deal with them, it doesn't matter to us whether those crew members die or not, all we need to do is let them release the ship, and that's it, go and put it! ”

"Yes!"

Looking at Zhang Yang's cold gaze, Endburton felt a chill down his spine, and hurriedly walked out, it was the first time he had heard someone say that it didn't matter if the crew died or not.

Endburton never dreamed that the relationship between Zhang Yang and the president of the Siberian Oil Company was just a smooth deal, and no one took it seriously.

For Zhang Yang, he just wants to rely on Siberian Oil Company to break a gap, a gap that acts as an agent, if this business is done, Zhang Yang can cooperate deeply with Siberian Oil Company, at least, all the kidnapped oil tankers will believe the weight of his words, and the pirates will also believe that this is the real core interest......

"How are you feeling, old man?" After Endburton, Zhang Yang glanced at Liu Biao, who was inspecting the forty qualities, and sat down next to the old man and asked.

"Yes, very good, the best condition in this place is poverty, because of poverty, so, there is almost no force activity, although there is also a small force of small armed forces, but it is easy to solve them, after all, now we have the support of the tribes, but now there is a very big problem, that is, we are still nearly twenty kilometers away from the coastline, so, we need to build two bases, otherwise, we can't control it, in Somalia, the water route is more important than the land route, We have to control the sea around here, or we won't be able to do anything......" The old man took out a hand-made map, which looked very ancient, and was probably a map of this place.

"Then build a road from here to the sea, but the project is a bit bigger, twenty kilometers." Zhang Yang sighed, this money is like flowing water.

"Well, I've already thought about this, now, the most important thing is to gain the loyalty of the people here and brainwash those young people, so, it's going to be very busy lately, you see, you look at their ......" The old man pointed to the forty young black men: "It's actually very easy to train them into qualified bodyguards, it's nothing more than to teach a little grappling fighting, and I don't expect to rely on them to protect me, but the key is to tell them etiquette, now they are still dirt buns, and it will only be embarrassing to take them out......"

"Yes, yes...... To brainwash, to teach a little etiquette ......" Zhang Yang thought deeply, if it was really like Liu Biao said to take this group of people as bodyguards to travel around the world, it is estimated that people will be laughed at to death, this group of people is an African farmer who has never seen the world at a glance, as for brainwashing, this is the most basic means, just like a pyramid scheme.

"Hey, it's a lot of work...... By the way, how long are you still here, this place will take time...... The living conditions are so bad now that it's not convenient to take a bath...... "The old man is a little depressed, and the people of the tribe are already buying building materials, and it is estimated that in less than three months, you can live in a new house." Zhang Yang said with a smile.
