In these days in Somalia, Li Su has learned more and more about the country, but this understanding has only brought him anxiety about the integration of Somalia, which is too chaotic.

Today's Somalia is mainly controlled by three major forces, one is the transitional government, a warlord alliance, and the other is sectarian forces, of which the transitional government is controlling Mogadishu, the capital of Somalia, but the scope of the transitional government's power is only a few blocks in the capital Mogadishu, even so, the president of the transitional government still relies on the protection of five or six thousand United Nations peacekeeping troops to dare to work in Mogadishu, and the Minister of Security and the Minister of Finance are too common to eat guns when they go out.

Leaving Mogadishu, the southern and northern towns of Somalia are ruled by different warlords, in Somalia, the towns are the main areas of Somali settlements, so these towns have become the focus of warlords' contention, two or three months to change the owner is common, and the warlords' favorite place is of course the capital Mogadishu, in just ten years, the Somali capital has changed fourteen waves of warlord rule, it can be said that it is not a sweet potato at the same time, And this is the reason why Li Su did not attack Mogadishu, he did not want to deal with these warlord forces who coveted the capital if he had nothing to do.

As for the sectarian armed forces, as the name suggests, they are the world-famous Islamic armed forces, which is why country M is so sensitive to the sectarian armed forces, because they are deeply afraid that Somalia will become the second Afghanistan, after all, Somalia is the choke point of the global shipping lane, and the most famous sectarian armed is the Union of Islamic Courts, and the al-Shabaab is still a little tender compared to them, because this armed group once dominated the entire Somalia, but this is obviously not what the people of country M originally believed, because in their eyes, Islam equals terrorist organizations.

In order to eradicate this group, country M instigated Ethiopia, which has been in a border dispute with Somalia, to use its troops. A total of 40,000 special forces accompanying country M launched an attack on the armed group and eventually drove it out of Mogadishu, but the force is still very strong.

When it comes to Ethiopia, we have to talk about the two evil neighbors facing Somalia, one is this Ethiopia that often sends troops to Somalia when there is nothing to do, and the other is Kenya, these two strong neighbors are the lackeys of country M, and Ethiopia and Kenya have invaded two high-quality pastoral areas in Somalia, and in order to legally occupy them, they have never wanted a unified government in Somalia to appear, which is why the 14 transitional governments in Somalia have failed. In addition to the reasons of the indigenous tribes, these stakeholders are also unscathed.

"It's a nice view." On the outskirts of the town of Gadaro is the place where Somalis graze their camels, the golden desert, the black-skinned herders leading a herd of camels to walk between the blue sky and the desert is also a unique scenery, and it is these camels, cattle and sheep that support the country's economy, and there is myrrh, which is a spice, and Somalia is the largest origin of this spice. "I said, we can't always make a fortune from diamonds, these Somali products also have value in exploitation."

Li Ran also accompanied Li Su to Jia Daluo every once in a while, and he said, "I just wanted to talk to His Highness about this issue. Selling diamonds is not a long-term solution, it can only alleviate temporary needs, and if Your Highness wants to become big in Somalia, you have to learn to control the economy of a country, and now Your Highness's army is getting bigger and bigger. Food, weapons and ammunition, fuel. The salaries of the soldiers, the vehicles, these are all large expenditures, especially these refugees, there is nothing to do, just consume food every day, no matter how much food in the Ryukyus can not be consumed like this, wouldn't this slow down the development of the Tang Dynasty, His Royal Highness should now benefit from both sides. ”

Li Su was silent when he heard this, he really thought about this question, it is indeed not a matter to transport a large amount of grain from the Ryukyus every day to be consumed here, he can't support the whole of Somalia, self-sufficiency in Somalia is fundamental, he thought for a while and said, "Do you have any good ideas?" ”

"It's very simple, build a common trade port for the two worlds." Li Ran said slowly.

"Be specific." Li Yu vaguely felt that Li Ran's construction might cause a huge change.

Li Ran moved on the co-pilot of the Humvee military vehicle and said: "After fully intervening in the economic affairs of Yizhou, I have been organizing people to investigate the economic situation of the whole world, and as a result, I have come to a very pessimistic conclusion that Your Highness Yizhou's economic system will collapse completely due to overcapacity in less than five years. ”

Li was stunned for a moment, "Don't scare me." Now that Yizhou is prosperous, Li Su can't imagine the consequences of economic collapse, and now the people have got the sweetness, once this sweetness is lost, this is equivalent to the foundation of Yizhou is gone.

"This is not alarmist, His Royal Highness's colonial plan is indeed to open up a way for Yizhou to develop the economy, but His Royal Highness should not forget the population and people's consumption power of that era, the population of Datang is 20 million, and the total population of the world is less than 100 million, and the vast majority of the people in this 100 million people cannot afford to buy Yizhou's commodities at all, and now Yizhou's production capacity is constantly strengthening after being electrified, once these commodities are unsalable, the rapid development of Yizhou is equivalent to nonsense." Li Ran said with a stern expression.

"You mean, the supply is about to be out of balance?" Li Yu thought for a while and said, he understood what Li Ran meant, now Yizhou is equivalent to concentrating the wealth of the world, which causes instant prosperity, but in this way, other places are getting poorer and poorer, and the purchasing power is getting worse and worse, while Yizhou's industry is constantly increasing, and one day, Yizhou's goods will form the consequence of rotten streets.

"That's right, but now we have found a way, to open a port, sell Yizhou's goods to this world, and one Africa is enough to ensure the prosperity of Datang's economy." Li Ran said.

Li Su had to admire Li Ran's wisdom, and he continued: "But if this is the case, how to solve the matter of this currency, the merchants of Yizhou do not know the dollar, and they do not know the Datang currency here." ”

"This is not a problem, but it will be a little troublesome, it is better for us to establish a trade zone in the Ryukyus to buy grain and various materials and sell them to Africa in exchange for US dollars, and then use the currency of the Tang Dynasty and the equivalent of the US dollar to give the merchants of Yizhou, in this way, His Royal Highness got the US dollars, and the merchants of Yizhou got the currency of the Tang Dynasty, and at the same time, it can also provide more jobs and improve the income level of the people, which can be described as killing three birds with one stone."

Li Su said excitedly, "Well, in this way, it is equivalent to one more foreign trade country, which not only increases the total economic volume of Datang, but also avoids inflation, in this case, you organize people to establish a special business zone, and organize a commercial company that can travel back and forth between the two worlds." ”

"Okay, Your Highness, but it may require Your Highness to keep the space-time gate closed."

"That's fine, it's just that you have to find a hidden place in Somalia and build a warehouse, and I'll just have to go in and out of there in the future."

Li Ran heard this: "I have already thought about this, I will build an underground fortress and establish a defense system, so that we can ensure our safety and concealment." ”

Li Su is very satisfied with Li Ran's plan, which is equivalent to the official trade between Yizhou and modern society, so that Li Su can ensure that Datang continues to maintain high-speed development and will not collapse due to the imbalance of supply.

As for Somalia itself, Li Su is also ready to carry out economic construction to help Somalia reunify Although he has his selfish intentions, how to say that this is also the welfare of all Somali people, he can't always ask for his own money to be a big wrongdoer, and Somalia has been explored to have a huge oil field, just because of the chaos here, this oil field has not been developed for a long time, and it is precisely because of this oil field that the West has abandoned Somalia for ten years and extended its tentacles here again, for the sake of the resources here, However, this Somalia is really muddy and can't support the wall, and the plans of the people of country M to support the puppet government have gone bankrupt one after another, but this does not affect the attention of the government of country M to this country, and even uses this place as a bridgehead to return to Africa, but they obviously would not have expected that there is an additional storage zài here that they cannot control.

Li Su originally came to Somalia in order to eliminate the threat that country M might pose to the Tang Dynasty, but he didn't expect that he found a new path of development by mistake, which was really unintentionally inserted into the willows, and for this plan, he had to strengthen the control of his sphere of influence, originally he also wanted to eliminate the Shabaab in one fell swoop, but this plan made him suddenly feel that it was not bad to leave this armed organization that was a headache for the people of country M to contain the special forces of country M in Mogadishu, otherwise this organization would be eliminated. Country M may have designated him as a terrorist organization, but he will continue to maintain the posture of attacking Al-Shabaab, after all, the two sides have formed a feud, and in the past few months, there have been many shootouts in Gadaro.

After discussing with Li Ran, he decided to target the port city of Obia in central Somalia, which is 300 kilometers away from Gadaro and is only a small port off the coast of Somalia, but because of years of war, the port capacity here is worrying, but Li Su wants foreign trade routes, so that he can control the foreign trade on his own territory, and even sell Somali and Yizhou goods to the world, and at the same time import various goods from other parts of the world for Yizhou and Somalia, In this way, the economic cycle model has been formed, and he no longer has to let the Australian base play the bitter trick of self-production and self-consumption, and Somalia, which is basically at the same level of life as the feudal society, can also be developed, providing a source of funds for Li Su.
