Chapter 609: Invitation to open a sub-base
Brewer was serious, "Mr. Martin, our company is a legal and regular company registered in South Africa, and it will not provide any special services. ”
"I mean, you don't offer war protection?" Martin felt that the other party must have misunderstood him, and hurriedly said.
War protection?
Man, you simply don't know anything about the Savior!
"Give money?" Brewer almost blurted out, but quickly retracted it and looked at Martin, "Our company has a subsidiary to undertake all kinds of war acts, Mr. Martin, don't you know the business scope of our company?" ”
Martin was embarrassed and didn't know how to continue.
The country of the Seychelles is too "low-key", most of their armed personnel are actually part-time, for them, enjoy the dividends brought by tourism, so that everyone can live a good life, anyway, because it belongs to the British territory, there are people covered above, don't be afraid, but this pirate often harasses, and even had a shocking overseas "Imperial Capital" yacht kidnapping case, there were more than a dozen people on it, most of them were Americans.
Then the Somalis did it.
The asking price is $5 million!
The pirates understood the truth that "thieves also have a way" and "don't kill innocents indiscriminately", and they were more professional and disciplined, and they didn't kill anyone, but in the end, it took more than a year to ransom these people back with 1.2 million US dollars, but this also caused the local tourism in Seychelles to drop by several points.
Direct economic losses are in the tens of millions of dollars.
"You mean pirates are invading you?" Brewer said with a strange face, he is a senior executive of the company, he knows some company insiders, Somalia is one of the bases of the Savior Company, and his influence there is too great, including Aideed, the company took people to kill him, how many people are in the local pirate organization, and there are still registers in the company, no matter what they do, but they can't move the ship of the Savior and his allies.
It's as simple as that.
So, when Brewer heard that this was the problem, his first thought was that it was really simple.
However, of course, Brewer will not say that it is simple, or else... How to get more benefits?
Martin nodded, "It's Benedict, he's sent us a notice asking us to give them 60% of all our earnings, or he'll kidnap our tourists." ”
Benedict?
I've never heard of it.
But as long as you are a Somali pirate, you have to listen to the Savior Company!
Brewer. Jeffries sorted out his words, and just as he was about to speak, the owner of the dining car came over with a pizza and put it on the table, "Gentlemen, be careful, do you still need to refill the drink?" Only 7 cents. ”
"Okay, of course, it tastes great." Brewer crossed Erlang's legs, looked at him and said with a smile, and Wilmot next to him also handed over the cup, "Give me a cup too, thank you, put more ice." ”
Martin and the two were also busy keeping up.
Brewer watched the boss leave, his face was grim, he looked at Martin, straightened, and began to mouth, "I know Benedict." ”
He knows a fart!
"One of the most vicious Somali pirates," Brewer said, looking at Wilmot, "I think he had a team of over 3,000 men, right?" Blinking as he spoke, Wilmot understood in an instant, made a thoughtful appearance, and then nodded very cautiously, "Probably, not very clearly, I've heard of it." ”
This "perjury" can't be too certain, probably, probably, maybe, or these words are the least decided, and they are the most believable.
Lying also has to be technical.
It's like someone says he's not interested in money,, no, he's interested in love.
The capitalists are the biggest lie, and the human beings are the biggest group.
Sure enough, Martin's face also showed panic, he, the representative of the Seychelles military, looked quite deflated, but in fact he was an old turtle, and he had never seen a big scene, "Then does your company have any solutions?" ”
"It's impossible to exterminate these pirates, they're so mobile that it's hard to find them if you dodge them out to sea." Brewer is right, why are pirates so difficult to exterminate, they have no base, no interests, no return at all, as long as they don't fool a few hooligans, who wants to care about them?
"The best thing to do is to hire us for a long time."
This is what Brewer meant, what is the meaning of killing the pig at once, it is necessary to bleed slowly, so that there is greater benefit.
The Seychelles are not poor, and what could be more expensive than collecting protection money, such as how much protection money did Eagle Sauce receive from Footpot Chicken after World War II?
"Brother, you offended everyone next to you, if you don't have anyone in your hand, I'm afraid you will be retaliated by them, come on, come on, or brother, cover you? What did you say? I dropped two bombs, are you afraid that the people will be angry? Don't make trouble, I'm a humanitarian helper, the rabbit next to me is going to cut you with a knife, and those two sticks are not happy to see you, in this Asian monster room, you are the enemy of the world, and Dad's arms are for you. ”
Then, a decades-long conservation fee is worth tens of billions of dollars!
If the Seychelles agree, Breuer applies to be in charge here, which is much more comfortable than in the desert.
Martin furrowed his eyebrows, "We need to think about it, but please complete our order first." ”
"Of course." Brewer was adamant, "I'll definitely send it to you within a month, but I need to get an order of $5 million first." ”
"I'll send the money over."
The basic tone of the cooperation was set, and the owner of the food truck just brought over the iced drink, and Martin and Vincent drank it in one gulp, and then took their leave, they still had something to do.
"They don't think they're paying." Brewer looked at Wilmot and said, the latter's eyes were almost together, "It seems to be." ”
Brewer scolded in a low voice, Africans really picked up, but still raised his hand and shouted to the boss to settle the bill, and took out a $5 for himself, "The excess is your tip." ”
"Thank you very much." The boss's wrinkled old face was very happy.
"Let me ask you, do you have any hotels here?" Brewer asked.
"There's a motel not far from there." The boss pointed in the direction and said, "It's an Italian couple, it's very tasteful." ”
Brewer thanked him and looked at Wilmot, "Looks like we're going to have to stay in a motel, don't worry, I won't do anything to you, you're safe." ”
Wilmot twitched, "I don't believe it at all. ”
……
Martin and Vincent, who had left, were also talking.
"Hey, man, are you playing for real?"
Martin wondered, "What are you talking about?" ”
"Are you really going to have them stationed on the island?" Vincent was surprised, "They're mercenaries. ”
"Why not?" Martin is not stupid at all, "It is not in our interest to have other countries stationed, and capitalists who talk about money are more moral than those hooligans, aren't they?" ”
That's true.
At the very least, people do business with a certain reputation.
If Eagle Sauce, John Bull and others come to the island, spring in the Seychelles may be winter in Moscow.
Who says Africans are stupid?
They are sometimes more savvy than anyone else, not savvy, how can so many people invest in the African market?
Don't underestimate anyone, it is possible that you see an ordinary rich second generation who drives a luxury car, and you can take out tens of millions casually, not bad money!
