Chapter Eighty-Four: President!!
Under Mohammadi's introduction, Farah asked to see the so-called advanced tank, but Li Lan did not immediately agree to him, but took him to the high-tech oil drilling well under construction not far from them.
Today happens to be the day when the technology drilling well will be completed, and in a few hours, the technology drilling well will be completely completed.
When the car came to the front of the oil well drilled by science and technology, except for Li Lan and Natasha, who knew it, the other two did not see what the building in front of them was surrounded by high iron sheets on all sides.
"My friend, this is the good thing you said, or something more haode than a tank." After getting out of the car, Farah stood in front of the tin fence and wondered.
"Yes, in terms of value, tanks can't be compared at all, because he allows us to have more tanks." Li Lan accentuated his tone again at our two words.
"An advanced tank is not cheap, so it's better to ship it here." Farah began his own speculation again, and did not refuse the word "we" mentioned by Li Lan many times.
"Hehe, the wealth that Somalia can produce depends on it. This is the greatest opportunity for you Somalis, and if we can build this thing on a large scale, then even if we unify Somalia and establish a complete regime, it will definitely not be a flash in the pan. Li Lan said bewildermently.
"Oh~~" Farah scratched his head, and then exclaimed: "Oil! ”
"Yes, oil wells are being built here." Li Lan nodded.
Li Lan's words not only startled Farah, but also surprised Mohammadi next to him.
"Sir, when did this begin? WeishenmeLiliang, who doesn't have any protection around here, do you want me to bring some soldiers and horses over. Muhammadi hurriedly said.
"No, because this oil well is almost finished, and after it is finished, this iron sheet will not be removed, so no one knows what is in it except the four of us. And after a while, when the wall is finished, this will be our territory. And then there's just an oil well, so you don't need to be so careful. "Li Lan is not worried about the safety of this place, except that no one knows, this place is not generally accessible.
At present, the construction of the entire territory has just begun, but it does not mean that Li Lan is not prepared for this at all. A large number of conscripts were sent out into the territory to guard the edges of the base's scanning range. And as long as an enemy is approaching, the assistant will also notify him as soon as possible. With a buffer zone of twenty kilometers, he had perfectly enough time to prepare. Of course, if he encounters something like a missile, he will admit it, anyway, with his current means, he has no way to defend it.
As for the outer iron sheets of science and technology drilling oil wells, Li Lan did not want to remove them, because the appearance of drilling oil wells is too eye-catching, even after camouflage, it is easy to be seen. Therefore, he is very simple, when the construction is completed, this layer of iron sheet is the same as the magnetic energy reactor, just don't remove it. Anyway, it is closed in all directions, and he is not afraid of other people's reconnaissance methods, even if it is a spy satellite, he does not need to worry. Shining from the sky, it was a large boxy tin house.
"Yes! Oil, if you want to change Somalia, you have to rely on oil. Li Lan sighed, turned to look at Farah, and continued: "My friend, is this very surprising. ”
"Accident? A little. Farah tried to calm himself down and said, "Somalia has two values, one is its strategic geographical position and the other is its resources. Needless to say, the strategic position is needless to say, and in terms of resources, many countries are very clear about the resources here, we do not have eye-catching diamonds here, nor do we have any precious minerals worthy of large-scale development, only oil is still valuable. Your country, so much invested in this, and Jihua will form two brigade-sized armored units within the year to extract oil. I just heard it, and I was a little surprised. ”
"I admire your mental quality, but the oil wells I built were not built for my country. These are all built for our development, even if there is no oil, two brigade-sized armored units will still be formed, and there will still be no shortage of tanks that should come. As I said before, what we currently have has not yet allowed our country to see the capital to support it. Coming to Farah and staring into his eyes, Li Lan said very sincerely.
"Although I don't know what the performance of the tank is, when it comes to the word advanced, it is still 200 units in a year, and the value of these tanks alone, even if I sell them, I can't get half of this order. Even if it were to be paid with Bossaso's port taxes, it would probably take years. With such a large amount of money, I don't know how to describe my mood at the moment. Looking at the ** Che Shuangji, Farah took a deep breath and sighed.
"You don't have to be burdened, I can tell you that within this year, I'm going to spend more than two billion dollars on this to build a force that can conquer Bossaso and stabilize the place. I don't need to pay a penny for that, and I'm going to give a lot of money this year and next year to arrange suitable jobs for Somalis in the Bossaso camp. For the children, to form schools, to start changing the living conditions of the Somalis around us. It is my promise to you to achieve this. ”
Two billion dollars, no matter where it is, is not a small number, Li Lan naturally cannot come up with it, and the two billion he mentioned refers to the value of the weapons and equipment produced by the funds of the base.
"Two billion dollars, 13 billion Chinese dollars......" Farah repeated several times in a row, and then he said calmly: "What do you need Somalia to pay for such a high price?" ”
“haha!” Hearing Farah's worried tone, Li Lan couldn't help but daxiao, patted Farah's shoulder, and said, "My friend, is this thing scaring you, believe me, two billion dollars, it's nothing at all?" In the future, I will invest tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of dollars in Somalia, and these two billion dollars are just appetizers. In this regard, I have a strong suggestion that you should get used to it as early as possible, because for Somalia today, if you want to build it in a short time, you need a high investment. ”
Farah felt his heart beat wildly involuntarily, he naturally knew very well the concept of 10 billion and 100 billion, and it would take three years to collect the financial revenue of the entire Somalia for a complete period, just 2 billion US dollars, not to mention 10 billion and 100 billion, which was a huge amount of money that Somalia would never dare to imagine, even if the resources of the entire Somalia were developed, it would be a huge amount of money.
Looking at Farah, who was shocked and speechless, and Mohammudi next to him, who agreed to this, Li Lan continued: "You also said before that as long as you can completely change Somalia, even if it is my country's garrison in Somalia, it is nothing, and I can tell you very clearly that this kind of thing will not happen. Why, then, do you have to worry about my purpose? ”
"Indeed, I can't think of anything in Somalia that would make you give so much." Farah looked at the desert in the distance and said, "If you can really do this, even if you make you the president of Somalia, I will not say anything." ”
Hearing the word president, Li Lan's heart couldn't help beating violently, but he soon recovered and said with a smile: "You think too much, how can a country let outsiders be presidents, and I don't have this heart." In fact, my greatest wish is to develop Somalia thoroughly, and our goal is the same.
As you know, all of my territory is Somalis, and I will not use anyone other than Somalis as my soldiers, except for me and a few people, from basic soldiers to junior officers, they will all be Somalis. Later, when I go to see the tanks, I will introduce you to one of my generals, who is Somali and a patriot, and I am sure that you will have many languages in common. ”
President, this is an extremely tempting word, but Li Lan really never thought about being the president of Somalia. However, this is not to say that Somalia belongs to someone else. Because he wants to take complete control of Somalia, not to be the apparent president and then bring countless troubles to himself. As long as the soldier is always in his own hands, it doesn't matter where he is.
