672 Trafficking
Many people often say that in the white world, people of color simply can't mix up.
In the 21st century, those black rap stars and sports stars have become idols, and even black people have become presidents of the United States, but there are still people who hold on to the "racist" argument, and would rather bury their heads in the sand than open their eyes to see how the world around them is changing.
The so-called times create heroes, do the right thing at the right time, stand on the tuyere, pigs can fly to the sky, so don't say anything about the "ceiling phenomenon", the reason why there is a "ceiling" is because it is not strong enough, not enough to break through the fetters of the world to prejudice, as long as the power of the individual is strong enough, not to mention changing the world, it is still possible to change your own living environment, so those who complain about the "ceiling" basically live below the "ceiling", for people who are really capable, there is nothing at all"Ceiling".
For ordinary people, it is indeed very difficult for a yellow person to get ahead in the United States in the nineteenth century, but for a traveler, everything is possible, even if Li Mu is thrown into the Middle Ages, Li Mu will not be suppressed by the "ceiling".
Although he didn't get what he wanted from Li Mu, John Harlan didn't give up, and after leaving New York, John Harlan went to Washington to try to find other help to restrict the behavior of the Junma Group.
The crux of the matter is that the current Stallion Group, how can a lawyer be able to restrain it, and the senior officials in Washington have long been mentally prepared for the behavior of the Bahamian company, so John Harlan is destined to continue to be disappointed.
While John Harlan was running around Washington, the Bahamas company was making big moves in Haiti.
In Cuba, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, and even in the United States, the surviving French descendants have donated money and materials to the Republic of Haiti, and many young people even came directly to Cap-de-France to join the army, asking to join the army of the Republic of Haiti and devote themselves to the ranks of revenge against the Haitian blacks.
It can be said that the massacre of white descendants by Haitian blacks was cruel at the beginning, and how high the enthusiasm of white descendants is now, almost within a week, the special account of the Republic of Haiti in the Bank of the Americas received more than 10 million dollars, a large part of which is anonymous, that is, the donors do not want anything in return, and the only demand is that the Haitian blacks should be punished as they deserve.
As for those who asked to join the army, perhaps their intentions were not pure, but the Republic of Haiti had no reason to refuse them, and Jérémy Heywood took the opportunity to establish the Haitian National Guard in Cap-de-France and appointed Chris Barthes, a retired naval lieutenant commander from the United States, as commander-in-chief of the National Guard.
"This is a list of arms purchases sent by the Republic of Haiti, President Jérémi hopes to get a preferential discounted price, and Mr. Zhang of the arms company thinks it is necessary for you to decide." The list handed over by Yan Shun included a complete set of individual equipment for 1,500 people, as well as heavy equipment such as light and heavy machine guns and 75mm rapid-fire guns, all of which totaled about $500,000.
"It's only half a million dollars, tell President Jérémie that he doesn't need to pay, I give him the only demand, after Haiti's independence, the Santiago investment company wants to get the right to develop Haiti's mineral resources." Li Mu is generous and puts the goal many years later.
It is not only the Interim Government of Haiti composed of blacks and mestizos who sends people to operate in the United States, but also the Republic of Haiti, which is made up of white people, to operate in the United States and gain as much support as possible.
As white people, Americans naturally have their own tendencies, and although the attitude of the US government is neutral on the surface, in fact this itself represents the choice of the US government.
Many Americans feel the same way about what happened to whites in places like Cap-de-France and Port-au-Prince, although that was decades ago, but it also resonates with fellow "colonizers" Americans, after all, Americans themselves know what good they have done in the United States, and they are also worried about the backlash of the Indians.
As a "socially responsible" enterprise, Junma Group will certainly not let go of this opportunity to brush up on goodwill, a few days ago, Li Mu has announced at a private party in a beach club on behalf of Junma Group to donate one million US dollars, and now it is not too much to take out another 500,000 yuan.
"Okay, I'll reply right away." Yan Shun agreed very happily.
The American campaign against the Indians in Montana reaped a lot of praise, the government reaped praise, the state reaped power, the magnates reaped gold mines, and the officers and soldiers represented by Will and Yan Hu reaped rich booty.
Although he has entered the top level of the US military in the actual sense, Yan Hu still regards himself as Li Mu's servant, so Yan Hu handed over all his loot to Li Mu to deal with.
Li Mu did not live up to Yan Hu's expectations, or in other words, what Li Mu did far exceeded Yan Hu's expectations, Li Mu converted all Yan Hu's private booty into cash and invested in the San Diego Investment Company, and then gave Yan Hu two percent of the shares, but this was enough to make the Yan family enter the rich class, you must know that only last year, the Yan family with two percent of the shares of the San Diego Investment Company received dividends of about one million dollars, which fully shows how wise Yan Hu's choice is.
The nineteenth century was a century of rapid change, with railways extending over vast land, bringing places closer together, and submarine cables extending beneath the vast expanse of the sea, bringing people closer together.
Between the United States and Cuba, the submarine fiber optic cable across the Florida Strait has been laid, and the telegram sent from New York can reach Santiago in three hours, but from Santiago to Cap-de-France, the distance of 400 is a full two days, which is the importance of submarine fiber optic cables.
Receiving Li Mu's reply, Jeremy Heywood was both happy and worried, but in the end he could only sigh and acquiesce to this fact.
"Mr. President, I think we should reject this offer, we can pay half a million dollars now, and the future mineral resources of Haiti are by no means half a million dollars." Dominican Mancente Bobby, a senior adviser to the Haitian government, offered his advice to Jérémi.
To tell the truth, according to the conclusions reached in the twenty-first century, Haiti's resources are not abundant, especially compared with Cuba, and can even be described as barren, except for the relatively large reserves of bauxite, the rest of the mineral resources are relatively small, and even have no mining value.
Li Mu knows this fact, so the reason why Li Mu put forward this suggestion is not for the mineral resources of Haiti, but to control the new Republic of Haiti, Li Mu wants to deepen the presence of the Junma Group in Haiti, so as to ensure that his investment will not be lost.
The problem is that Vincent Bobby is not aware of this fact, and Vincent Bobby probably does not know much about the transaction between Li Mu and Jeremy Heywood, so Vincent Bobby subconsciously opposed Li Mu's proposal.
"Perhaps, but what can we do? Yes, we have more than half a million dollars in the Bank of America, but we need the approval of the Regulatory Commission to use the funds in the account, and this is a transaction we can't refuse, otherwise—" Jérémy Heywood did not continue, believing Vincent Bobby would understand.
In order to monitor the better use of donations, there is a supervisory committee responsible for managing the flow of funds in the account of the Republic of Haiti in the Bank of America, and as the largest donor, Li Mu is also a member of the supervisory committee, so if the Republic of Haiti wants to use the funds in the account to buy arms, it must first obtain Li Mu's consent.
And considering the Bahamian company, this is indeed a deal that the Republic of Haiti cannot refuse, otherwise it will annoy Li Mu, and the Haitian National Guard, which has just hung up the brand and has not even determined the style of clothing, will indeed be unable to complete the ultimate goal of revenge and revenge.
"In order to restore the country, we have lost the island of Gonave and Port-au-Prince, and now we have all the rights to develop mineral resources in the country, and if this continues, we don't know what we will lose next." Vincent Bobby was also speechless, could he just watch the Stallion Group take everything from Haiti?
Now it seems that this is indeed the only way.
"It's just a development right, those minerals will not go to the United States on their own legs, as long as they are mined in Haiti, they will definitely generate corresponding profits, so don't worry." Jérémy Heywood can only think better, when life can't be resisted, then enjoy it.
"Well, hopefully they'll pay taxes in the future." Vincent Bobby pinned his hopes on the brilliance of humanity, even though Vincent Bobby himself didn't believe much of it.
Like Jérémy Heywood, Vincent Bobby is also of French descent, during the Haitian black riot, Vincent Bobby's grandfather fled to Dominica, and all the family members who did not have time to escape were killed, so Vincent Bobby hated Haitian blacks no less than Jérémy Heywood. Bobby's personal investment.
He signed his name on the agreement, and then the agreement went around and around and was handed over to Chris Bhatt.
Before joining the Bahamian company, Chris Barthes probably never imagined that he would have the opportunity to serve as the commander-in-chief of a country's army, although the name "National Guard" sounds more like a militia, but this is the only official violent agency in the Republic of Haiti, so Chris Barthes is not qualified to be picky.
After receiving permission from Jérémi Heywood, Chris Barthes immediately devoted himself to the formation of the Haitian National Guard.
In Jérémie Heywood's plan, the nascent Haitian National Guard was made up of 1,500 men, a force that would not be able to function in a short period of time and would exist only on paper until they were fully trained.
After taking over the army, Chris Barthes soon discovered that the 1,500-strong establishment was simply not enough, and on Christmas Eve, more than 3,000 had already signed up, which, according to Jérémy Heywood, were enthusiastic young people who were willing to give their lives for the Republic of Haiti, and their enthusiasm could not be discouraged, so the number had to be expanded to accommodate the growing size of the "National Guard".
To train an army, you first need a large number of qualified officers, which even the Bahamas company cannot help, but fortunately with the support of the United States, through the "non-governmental organization" of the National Rifle Association, Chris Barthes has obtained nearly 100 qualified officers, which has given a strong impetus to the construction of Haiti's army.
"It's just a weapon for 1,500 people, which is not enough at all, the soldiers still need training, and there must be a certain reserve in the warehouse, even if the total number is only 1,500 people, at least 3,000 weapons must be prepared, so as not to be overstretched when needed." Chris Bart was not satisfied with the list, so he picked up his pen and began to revise it.
"I said Chris, have you forgotten that you are still a senior consultant to the Bahamian company, which pays you a salary of nearly $400 a month, but not for you to serve the Republic of Haiti." Mike Chang is very unhappy with Chris Bhatt's current form.
$400 is just Chris Bart's nominal monthly salary, if you add overseas subsidies and various bonuses, Chris Bart's salary income should be more than $20,000 per year, and it is precisely because the income is so rich that Chris Bhatt is willing to give up his official status to join the Bahamian company.
Compared with the wealthy Bahamian company, the Republic of Haiti is much more stingy, although Chris Barthes was appointed by Jérémy Heywood as the commander of the National Guard, but in fact the salary is not at all, Chris Barthes is very dissatisfied with this, but under the temptation of the shiny gold collar badge, Chris Barthes is still painful and happy.
"The work I do now does not conflict with the work I do in the Bahamas, in fact, the two are slightly complementary, so please let me, you block my sun-" Chris Bart and Mike Chang were already very familiar, and they spoke with less scruples and more casual in the military.
The Bahamas company is not only Chris Bhatt as a consultant, in fact, Mike Zhang has an entire staff under him, which is the source of Li Mu's confidence in dealing with a country with a company.
Chris Bart's current role is more reflected in the coordination with the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base, and for the actual work, the lack of Chris Bartt does not have a serious impact.
"To be realistic, Mr. Kingston's letter from Jamaica requires more labor, and we're going to be busy." Mike Chang was not worried about a frontal assault on the Haitian Interim Government, nor was he worried about insufficient support from New York, and the only thing that interested Mike Chang was the business of the Bahamian company.
For a former gangster, how much money can be earned is the true embodiment of personal ability.
