Chapter 337: Sudden Bad News
"Hou Zhengdong, I know you made a lot of money gambling on stones this time."
Peng Jiafu smiled, leaned back on the sofa, and glanced at Hou Zhengdong with a sharp gaze, "However, no matter how much money you have, you can't just walk around China openly, and besides, there are police staring at you at any time, no amount of money will be useful." ”
"If you have a passport from Myanmar, then the situation is different, and if you go back, you will be a returned overseas Chinese, I believe that your local government will definitely not dare to offend you, a returned overseas Chinese, plus you have so much money now, go back and throw tens of millions of dollars to do a few projects, with the character of those officials, naturally will not miss this opportunity to grasp political achievements."
Hou Zhengdong is really a little excited, although he can appear openly with Hou Jie's identity now, but careful people can still see the difference between the two looks, plus the original Hou Jie is just a migrant worker, where will he know how to play with guns, where will he know kung fu?
In short, pretending to be Hou Jie is not a long-term solution, and now that he has such an opportunity, Hou Zhengdong naturally wants to use this opportunity to make himself a returned overseas Chinese.
However, Hou Zhengdong did not dare to make decisions about this kind of big thing, after all, he is now an organized person, although this matter should be helpful to complete the task of the National Security Bureau, but it also needs to be reported to Guan Mingda.
Hou Zhengdong nodded, smoked a cigarette, was silent for a long time, raised his head and glanced at Peng Jiafu, "Old man, I'll go back and think about it." ”
"It's a big thing in life, and you have to think about it."
Peng Jiafu nodded, and the expression on his face became solemn, "More than ten years ago, I also faced this difficult choice, when we were fighting the Burmese government army and had no power to fight back, but international public opinion is very unfavorable to us, if we join forces, it is really possible to overthrow the Burmese regime." ”
His voice gradually deepened, "However, we are not recognized internationally, they think that once we people control Myanmar, then the whole of Myanmar will become the poppy country of the world, and they don't want to think about who introduced the poppy in the first place, and who forced us to grow it." ”
"It is located in a triangular area along the border of Thailand, Myanmar and Laos, and because most of the area is in the mountains at an altitude of more than 1,000 meters, the climate is hot, the rainfall is abundant, and the soil is fertile, which is particularly suitable for the growth of opium poppies, and the Burmese government army has been constantly reducing our living space in those years."
"If we want to survive and fight, we need weapons, we need military salaries, and the government is always on guard against us, using the opportunity that we can use to fight us, and our only source of income is the poppy."
Hou Zhengdong nodded, in the early nineteenth century, Britain, the United States, France and other Western powers all taught Burma the cultivation of opium poppies, refining, marketing and other techniques, and even bought crows from the Golden Triangle. piece, so stimulated the crows of the Golden Triangle. Piece of planting, the yield is increasing day by day, and gradually becoming a poison all over the world. product supply base.
Peng Jiafu was able to resolutely announce the elimination of opium poppy cultivation in the Kokang area more than 10 years ago, when Kokang was at its peak, which shows that this old man is not only courageous, but also very far-sighted.
For Shan State to gain international recognition, it must be detoxified. The hat of the supply base will no longer be a thorn in the side of the international community.
"Now the situation has improved a lot, our people have started to grow crops, to grow cash crops, and we do business with China, exporting mountain goods, ores and so on to China."
As he spoke, a faint smile appeared on Peng Jiafu's face.
"Chairman Peng, although you have ordered a ban on the cultivation of opium poppies in the territory of Kokang, however, the crows of the Golden Triangle. Sheet production has not declined. ”
Hou Zhengdong's face showed a wry smile, "You have this kind of overall view, it doesn't mean that other people will agree with you, what they want is to make a fortune, as for what will happen in the future, they won't care." ”
"Yes, this is what I am most worried about, why the government has connived at the resurgence of opium poppy cultivation in the Golden Triangle over the years, in order to make the Golden Triangle bigwigs have a conflict of interest, and it will also make my efforts to promote the cultivation of food crops all these years go to waste."
A flash of sadness flashed in Peng Jiafu's eyes.
"There is no future for those who swim against the current."
Hou Zhengdong took a puff of cigarette and shook his head, "If the military forces of several of your special zones are united, even the government army will not be able to help you, but it is impossible for them to watch your places get out of the government's control." ”
"They will definitely try to do everything they can to undermine this status quo between you, and the best way is for you to have a conflict of interests, so it is impossible for the situation in northern Myanmar to calm down."
Peng Jiafu was stunned when he heard this, a flash of light flashed in his eyes, he worked hard to make friends with Hou Zhengdong, for the cooperation project with Cheng Mingjun, and he also knew that this guy was a monster with super combat effectiveness, but he didn't expect that this little guy was still a very political-minded person.
"It's just that the mountains and forests in northern Myanmar are dense, and it is difficult for the government army to completely wipe you out, so the best way is to try to encourage war between you and these special regions, so as to weaken your strength, and then use you to govern these places."
Hou Zhengdong picked up the water cup and took a sip, and was about to continue, when the phone on Peng Jiafu's desk suddenly rang.
Peng Jiafu frowned, walked over quickly and grabbed the microphone, and a hurried voice came from the microphone, "Chairman, it's not good, Kachin State has taken the initiative to attack our army, and there seems to be movement on the Lashio side......"
"Okay, I see, you give the next five minutes' notice, and the meeting will start in five minutes."
Peng Jiafu clasped the phone heavily and slapped the table heavily, his face was as black as the bottom of the pot, "****** Kachinbang, this is a clear way to sweep my face in front of Jun Shao, I really thought that I didn't dare to clean them up, and I them off, so I taught them a hard lesson first." ”
After a moment of silence, Peng Jiafu grabbed the microphone and dialed out a string of numbers, "Old Five, let your independent group go out for a walk today, bring a 40 bazooka, and I want to hear good news before lunch today." ”
Hou Zhengdong was stunned when he heard this, Peng Jiafu should not be such an impulsive person, how could he directly let his army go out without knowing what happened?
"Chairman Peng, you're busy, I'll go around the street."
Hou Zhengdong got up and said goodbye very interestingly, after all, this is a resolute internal matter, although he is a guest, it is not suitable to listen to such a confidential matter.
Peng Jiafu personally sent Hou Zhengdong out of the office, and then walked directly to the conference room.
Hou Zhengdong walked out of the office building of the first special zone of Shan State in Myanmar, looked back at this office area that controlled the entire Kokang, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, even the office compound of the township government in China is better than here.
Although there was a war ahead, the pedestrians on the streets of Lao Cai did not seem to be affected, shopping for things, chatting and chatting, and beautiful girls in short skirts strolling around the streets, as if the war was far away from them.
In fact, the war took place on the border between Kachin State and Kokang, not very far from Lao Cai, thinking about this, Hou Zhengdong's heart jumped, Sha Kun seemed to be on the side of Lashio.
A hurried mobile phone rang, Hou Zhengdong was stunned, hurriedly took out his mobile phone and glanced at the phone, but before he could speak, a hurried voice came from the microphone, "Brother Jie, Brother Jie, the boss is dead, the boss is dead!" ”
"Mengzi, what do you say, you say it again."
Hou Zhengdong was dumbfounded, pinching his phone in a daze, a little unable to believe his ears, Sha Kun is dead, this, what's going on?
