The construction of the territory is only a part of the development of the territory, in addition to the military and territorial construction, the resettlement of residents has also become the main development direction at this stage.

The resettlement of residents, the construction of unified residential buildings, the planning of villages and towns, the construction of medical care, education, market planning, and cultural facilities, combined with the blueprint of urban construction, the planning of streets, and the distribution of village areas. These are the main tasks at this stage, and there are many details in them, such as broadcasting, drinking water, electricity, and telecommunications...... and other details, all need to be completed closely.

At present, there are more than 60,000 residents in the territory, and of these 60,000 people, less than one-third can live in permanent housing. Resettle the inhabitants as soon as possible has also become a task that the territory needs to complete as soon as possible.

In terms of medical care and education, it can be slightly slow, at least so that residents have a place to live.

To tell the truth, building a city out of nothing is by no means a simple task, nor can it be completed in a while, not to mention that it is still a city covering an area of 800 square meters, and it is not easy to start taking shape, not to mention that Li Lan wants to directly build a modern city.

Fortunately, Li Lan did not want to build the entire city into high-rise buildings, but mixed some five- or six-story buildings into a large number of double-storey buildings to achieve a unified layout.

In this way, starting from scratch also has the advantage that there is no need for demolition, and it can be built smoothly from the beginning of planning.

Originally, Li Lan also planned to build some buildings that were biased towards the Chinese style, but after thinking about it for a long time, he gave up this plan and built it according to the Somali architectural style, so that the Somalis who lived in it could have a greater sense of belonging.

However, in terms of funding, the speed of construction of the territory is strictly limited. Now, the construction of the territory is supported by Farah, but Farah is only a businessman with little money after all, and it will not be too long to support him. Maybe in Somalia, he is one of the richest people, but he can come up with tens of millions of dollars, which is already his limit, even if he sells all his family property, he can come up with one or two hundred million, which is just a drop in the bucket for the construction of the entire city.

And Li Lan doesn't want to spend Farah's money all the time, to be honest, since Farah agreed to work closely with him, Farah has paid a lot for the territory, reinforced concrete, and the refugees provided to the refugees are all supported by Farah alone.

When Li Lan admired him deeply, he didn't want to rely on Farah all the time. Although in Farah's heart, Li Lan brought so many weapons and equipment, medicines, and training Somali Jishu talents (engineers), and the cost was even greater, he still didn't want Farah to pay for it alone.

As an outsider, to be able to get such great support from a local, even if in the eyes of that person, this is to help his compatriots, but Li Lan wants to play his role more in admiring his national righteousness.

"How much supplies did Farah send today?" Li Lan asked Muhammadi.

Muhammadi, who was very attentive to the territory, memorized every income and expenditure account, and when he heard Li Lan's question, he replied without the slightest hesitation: "Eighty carts of grain, including 50 carts of rice, 10 carts of meat and food, and 20 carts of vegetables, totaling 700 tons, and currently the surplus grain in the territory is 2,000 tons. ”

"What is the daily consumption right now?" Li Lan asked again.

"There are 70,000 people in the territory plus residents, nearly 200,000 refugees outside the city, and 300 tons of food are consumed every day. Muhammadi replied quickly that food was the root of everything, whether it was for the territory or for the refugees outside the city, and these data had always been in his heart.

"Two thousand tons of surplus grain, is Farah in some trouble these days?" Li Lan asked suspiciously, compared with the grain that had just started to be delivered frequently every day, these days, the grain delivery team has been shortened to two or three days.

"It's a little troublesome, but it's okay, Mr. Farah says he's done it himself." Muhammadi thought for a moment and replied.

"What's the trouble?" Li Lan frowned, food is related to everything in the territory, and food can only be obtained from the port of Bossaso, if it is .......

"I asked, but Mr. Farah didn't say it explicitly, and the soldiers who escorted the food didn't report anything unusual." Muhammadi shook his head.

"Humph! Let the troops who escort the food on the next trip investigate it clearly for me, and this matter must not be sloppy. A cold light flashed in Li Lan's eyes, and anger flashed on his face.

"Sir, there is no need to wait for the next trip, Mr. Farah will come to the territory tomorrow, and you will ask him in detail when the time comes." Muhammadi said.

"Hmm!" Li Lan nodded, and said with anger on his face: "If someone is looking for trouble, I don't mind raising my knife in advance." ”

"Those moths, if they dare to even embarrass the food that saves people, they should all be killed." Muhammadi on the side naturally knew the meaning of Li Lan's words, and when he thought of the disappointing government, he was also angry.

"At the moment, we are not strong enough to shake the government forces in Bossaso, and for the sake of so many refugees, I really don't want to deepen the hatred until necessary. After all, our grain has to be disembarked from the port of Bossaso, and it would be nice if we had a dock here. Li Lan's face turned and he said helplessly.

Red police units, with docks, or the kind of big military port, can be quickly built from there to nothing. But this is not an intermediate permission that can be built, and among the advanced permission indicators, there is an indicator that a city must be taken, and the only option is Bossaso. This brought about a very contradictory result, and Li Lan had a lot of headaches for it.

Forty kilometres to the west is the disputed border between Puntland and Somaliland, and more than 200 kilometres west is Berbera, the largest port in all of Somalia. Berbera's position in Somaliland is as important as Bossaso's position in Puntland, with more than $100 million a year. The annual throughput is much more than that of the port of Bossaso.

Li Lan did not think about Berbera, but he could not do anything about it, there has been a territorial dispute between Somaliland and Puntland for a long time, and the location of the base is actually a place where Puntland and Somaliland are separate, and Puntland has declared its sovereignty over this place, but has never cared.

And if you want to transport grain from Berbera here, first of all, Somaliland will not agree, unless it is an international shili to join, otherwise he Li Lan has no way to do this. Somaliland is not Puntland, and it is not easy to mess with. Now let him occupy Bossaso he dares, but let him go to fight Berbera, he does not have such strength.

The Puntland Republic of Shili crisscrosses the Council of Elders, the dark system of government, for their own interests, there is not much money to develop the military in a year, and they basically rely on foreign support and political support. Somaliland is different, although the government is not clean, they understand the importance of military strength, and since 1991, Somaliland has relied on Berbera tax revenues to build a good army. In particular, with the support of Ethiopia, armored forces were formed.

Therefore, on the issue of Berbera, Li Lan still has no choice, unless someone from the international community comes forward to help him. It doesn't necessarily take a national agency to help him, like some international humanitarian organizations.

And now, Li Lan still has no clue about getting help from international humanitarian organizations.

At present, Li Lan is more worried that Bossaso's government forces will take advantage of this to make a big fuss, and in the general righteousness, they may not dare to intercept the grain transport team, but it is no problem to cause some trouble for Farah.

In addition, the Bossaso government forces have stopped the conflict with the various Shili, which is not impossible.

Previously, Li Lan sent sergeants to help Farah because he was worried that the government army would be in trouble. Fortunately, Li Lan has not received a report on this aspect so far, but this does not mean that he can sit back and relax. The port is under the control of government forces, and if Awei wants to play tricks, he doesn't have to resort to force that will lead to infamy.

In addition, there has been news from Farah recently that many international shili are in contact with Bossaso government forces, which has to make Li Lan vigilant. While he is still at the mercy of others, it is difficult to control the initiative.
