Chapter 368: Ripe Fruit
Since Pi Jinde followed Zhou Yuanqiang, he has talked about his own horn cooking, Jia Li is an ordinary gangster, but at the age of fifty-five, he has a second life. As the temporary manager of Zhou Yuanqiang when he was not in Somalia, he managed the entire huge steel park, with more than 30,000 workers and 2,000 security guards inside.
In Somalia, when it comes to steel parks, in addition to thinking of Zhou Yuanqiang, a Chinese from Somalia, it is Shehad's turn himself.
Who in Somalia today doesn't know about the Steel Park? The whole country, regardless of political reasons, as long as the Somali people, are trying to find a way to come to Dumogatensha, and then sharpen their heads, and want to enter the steel plantations and become an enviable worker.
What a falling minimum monthly wage means in Somalia is all too clear to anyone who has suffered. In previous years, a large flock of sheep was raised, and all of them were sold, and the price of each sheep was only about three dollars. After a year of hard work, it is only about a small amount of dollars.
It is hard to imagine how the Somali people, who depend on animal husbandry for their livelihood, can rely on the return of dollars in this year to feed a family.
As long as he thought of 30,000 workers, which was a salary of 10,000 dollars a month, Shehad couldn't help but feel dizzy. If the steel park produces something, Shekhad thinks it is very worthwhile, but since the establishment of the steel park, except for the steel mill has received orders from China every month, there has been no income.
The steel park has been expanded again and again, and it is faintly more like the capital than the Dumogajansha.
A year and a half of frenzied expansion has stimulated the entire Somali economy, with a large number of large and small factories and artisanal workshops built on the basis of steel parks, which is exactly like putting Mogadishu into the industrial age. You know, a year and a half ago, the people of the capital still needed to go to the farmland outside and work hard to grow food in order to live hard.
How many people as a whole of Somalia will directly benefit from the steel park? 30,000 workers mean that 20,000 or 30,000 families have entered a well-off life in Somalia, and the family has no worries about food and clothing. And the daily consumption of these 20,000 or 30,000 families will drive the economic benefits of the entire city. A large number of large and small factories that rely on steel parks also need workers at the 10,000 mark, plus raw material collection, ore mining and so on.
Shehad knew that the entire steel park affected more than a million people.
As the number two person in the steel park, Shehad is one of the most influential people in the whole of Somalia, even in places where other warlords are seized, all of them throw olive branches to this number two person. Even the president of Somaliland in the north has secretly sent people to discuss the possibility of cooperation.
Shehad is fifty-six years old this year, and his heart has long been worn out by the years, which makes him not like other young people, who have an ambition to show his own ability. It was clear to Shehad who had given him everything he was now.
He may be too satisfied with the status quo, but Shehad understands that he should know how to be satisfied.
own six. The children, all of whom work in the steel park, and the boss privately gives them a monthly salary of US dollars, serving as the supervisor of the security team in the steel park and the management of some important departments, which is definitely a gift from God for children who have little culture and ability.
Not only the six children, but also their families, as well as relatives in the family, as long as they can go to work, all enter the steel park. Although most of them are just ordinary workers, there is nothing to be satisfied with compared to the people before and outside.
Who in the village doesn't know that Shehad is now a big celebrity, and the eyes that he used to look down on have not changed completely? One by one, I came to the door just to think of working in the steel park. I have no opinion on this Shehad at all, and it is not a big deal to be able to grow old and benefit the township.
What's more, the boss also agreed, as long as he obeyed the rules of the factory, the boss didn't care about this.
As long as you walk on the streets of Mogadishu and walk in the village, who does not cast envious eyes on themselves? Based on all this alone, what else is Shehad himself not satisfied with? What's more, the salary I receive every month is still four US dollars, as long as I complete what the boss orders, the general reward is fierce. Dollar.
To be honest, being able to receive milk dollars already made Shehad feel ashamed, because he thought that he was dealing with the movements of the entire steel park every day, and he didn't put much effort into it. And there are too many places where the boss needs to spend money.
Think of the two thousand armed forces that maintain the entire steel park, and those weapons alone are a dizzying amount. However, the boss's investment in this area is far more than that, a large number of machine guns are equipped in the security team, and there are more than a dozen armored vehicles.
These are still superficial, the boss privately trains the five thousand soldiers in the forbidden area, and the investment is really big. Dozens of tanks, dozens of helicopter gunships, hundreds of armored vehicles, and hundreds of trucks.
How much it will cost, Shehad has no way to calculate.
It was only a helicopter gunship, a Takeki helicopter that resembled an Apache, and Shehad had looked it up on the Internet
, Wanbi North, two Apache helicopter gunships. In vain, it takes more than 2,000 forces to remember himself at that time, and he can barely grasp the mouse. What is the concept of more than 30 million planes?
Here Shehad counted as many as sixty-seven helicopter gunships, and when he looked at the long string of zeros in the calculator, he felt that his mind could not turn. And what if you add fifty-five tanks? That's a heavy tank worth more than $10 million. Hundreds of armored vehicles and hundreds of thousands of dollars a truck,
Shehad felt that the world was going crazy, and he couldn't understand how the boss could have these weapons silently, where did he get so much money.
Thinking of the identity of the boss, Shekhad became panicked at that time, he was afraid that the boss was just an agent sent by a certain country, with the purpose of subverting Somalia, and would plunge the entire Somalia, which had just had a glimmer of peace, into the flames of war.
With the boss's current force, it is not comparable to any other warlord at all The key is that the relationship between the boss and the local tribe is completely tied to the chariot.
But soon, Shehad erased this sorrow, because the boss saw his thoughts, and took him to the factories in the steel mill, pointing to the machine tools and manufacturing lines, and explaining them to himself. And when he walked to the countless parts piled up in the warehouse, Shehad really understood why there was no business in the steel park, because the things that were made up of these parts turned out to be munitions.
"Shehad, I ask you a question of what you think will take to make Somalia completely unified. Into eternal peace? ”
Faced with this question raised by his boss at the time, Shehad had no way to answer it. With so many problems that the brain can't solve, how do you know what to do as an ordinary person? What kind of ability he has, Shehad knows best, managing a small factory, there are some things that can't be done, and he can answer such a high-level question.
Shekhad remembers that the boss at the time, was just laughing. Another question was asked: "Do you think you are happy now, and are the people who benefit from the Steel Park happy?" ”
Faced with this question, what did Shehad have to hesitate, and he directly shouted out happiness.
"Now that you feel that there is hope in your life, then this is the right path. Peace sometimes does not have to be in the form of war, and war is only a last resort. The whole steel park. Every factory here, it's for the military industry, it's made of the Rhino tanks, helicopter gunships, and armored vehicles that you see
I remember that at that time, I was stunned.
"In Somalia, what do you think we will do to make people happy, raise a few pigs or sheep, or lead a group of craftsmen to do some sewing and mending work? No, none of this can make any difference in Somalia. We need to develop heavy industry, what the world needs, to be able to stimulate the Somali economy and lead Somalia out of its current predicament, like other countries, without war. There is no civil strife, people are well fed, and Somalia is like a strong country that can raise its eyebrows in front of other countries
At that moment, Shehad remembered that he was stunned, he didn't know why the boss did it, but at least he thought that the person who could bring it all this, even if he was the devil, would be an angel in the eyes of the Somali people.
Shehad himself asked a very stupid question: "If other forces try to stop us, they will never see a day when they lose power." ”
, Wanbi North
"Whoever deletes the happiness that the people need most is the enemy of the people. When dealing with the enemy, the guns in our hands are the voices we want to convey. We need to defend our happiness with weapons and fight for the happiness we need with blood. Anyone who stands in opposition to us is an enemy and will be crushed by us
Yes, happiness, defend your own happiness, and your own happiness will not be destroyed by others.
Shehad now, at that time, stood at an unprecedented height, looking at the whole of Somalia like a great man in the past. So he realized what Somalia was really like, the warlords, the parties like Lin, the religious beliefs with complex relationships, the strong snake-like all the falls, and more importantly, the villages that were washed one by one, the cities like villages, and the people who were threatened by war all the time.
"If what the boss says can be realistic, I'm willing to be the devil.
”
Shehad himself was only a small person, but he had a patriotic heart. What the boss will bring, he knows very well, is definitely an opportunity to change the whole of Somalia, no matter what the ultimate purpose of the boss is, as long as people can live and work in peace and stay away from the fighting, everything is enough.
So Shehad now seemed to be depraved, thinking about everything for the sake of the steel park, from the factories, to the huge warehouse complex, and the shipyard that was about to be built, all of which were spent on improving safety and management.
Shehad understands that the Somali people are also a kind group of people, and the opportunity to benefit from the Steel Park is very good, and they will really crowd everything in the Steel Park. The steel park is in them...", which is the divine existence, and no one is allowed to destroy the people... Six
In order to take advantage of the huge crowd this affects, Shehad had the boss's ultimate goal in mind. He began to visit the tribes of central and southwestern Somalia, and he had good relations with a single settlement, and at the same time made friends with officials in the transitional government of the capital, even the "al-Shabaab" surrounding the capital. Shehad was not afraid to make contact.
It was with the efforts of Shehad that the steel exhibition was finally maintained without being influenced by the outside world.
Since May, Shehad's heart has become cloudy and rainy like the arrival of the rainy season in Africa. In Somalia all year round, he felt cold in the hot days of early morning and little rain. Because in his heart, another belief rumbled to the ground.
Shehad got the news that in the face of the increasingly expanding steel park, there were finally people who couldn't bear it and wanted to pick this ripe fruit.
What he couldn't bear even more was that the first person he wanted to reach out to was the transitional government recognized by the United Nations. According to credible sources, the tycoons of the transitional government working in neighboring countries seem to want to use the economic strength of the steel park to expand their meagre troops, buy equipment, train a combative army, and exercise the unified power that a government should have.
The idea of the transitional government is good, but what it stands up for is based on the sacrifice of the steel plantation, which is something that Shehad cannot tolerate.
What will the literati of the transitional government do? Even if the economic capacity of the steel park is given to them, corruption is certain, and how much of it really falls on the training soldiers to buy equipment. And Shehad did not think that they would have such abilities. Look at what has been done in the past few years.
A president who doesn't even want to stay in his own country, this kind of president who puts his life as his first priority, will he be a good president?
Steel Park actually. It was built on the plains north of Mogadishu, out of the area controlled by the Transitional Government. The only one that has a connection. It was the boss who walked the major of the transitional government. But let's not forget that this is the territory of Al-Shabaab, and how can they allow the transitional government to pick this fruit from their territory?
It is foreseeable that it will not take long for the "Qingdong Party" to learn about this news, and then the steel park will be sandwiched between the two parties.
When I think of the meagre number of troops in the Transitional Government, many of them are weapons donated by other countries, most of them are old and toothless. Like armored vehicles and tanks, they are available, but they belong to the peacekeeping forces, not to the Transitional Government.
ten thousand
With the strength of the transitional government, if it weren't for the existence of peacekeeping forces, it would simply be a joke, a joke, even a government with a little bit of control, would it be called a government?
From the moment he got the news, Shehad immediately dialed the boss's mobile phone, but there was no way to get through the first few times, which made Shehad anxious like an ant in a pot, dialing over and over again.
Maybe it was moved to heaven, the mobile phone was finally connected, and the familiar voice of the boss came. Naturally, Shehad reported what he heard at the moment, and told his worries as well. It had been a whole night from the time he got the news to the time he got through his mobile phone, and Shehad bet that the "al-Shabaab" must have gotten the news as well, and they also had intelligence officers.
And Zhou Yuanqiang, who reported to Xie Hade, happened to be eating supper with Yan Yuhe, he stopped eating, put down his chopsticks, gave Yan Yuhe an apologetic look, stood up, walked to the balcony in the open air, looked at the vast night outside, and muttered: "Is it finally coming?" ”
In fact, Zhou Yuanqiang had long expected this situation, and the scale of the steel park and his immigration status could not help but make them tempted.
It's just that it's too late to tempt now? You must know that the four soldiers who are training in Dan, after a year and a half, can also be called an elite army, as long as they want, they can form a mechanized force with 150 tanks and 100 helicopter gunships at any time. And the pilots who have practiced day and night, after a short period of adaptation, can fly the fighter plane to appear under this sky.
A year and a half, didn't you give yourself enough time to prepare? It is better to say that the fruit is ripe, but it is better to say that it is ready, and wait for them to come and pick it, and give yourself a reasonable excuse.
"The effectiveness of the transitional government is extremely low, and if they do not make mistakes, it will be difficult for them to get the "al-Shabaab" that the transitional government wants to do with their ability to raise a force at any time, which is not quite in line with the plan. Thinking of this, Zhou Yuanqiang showed a smile, and said in Somali on his mobile phone: "Shehad, now give you a task, go to your old friend Hebenlmer, and ask him to move the transitional government, and make it difficult for us in advance, I think that according to the government's wishes, we can get a lot of money, and he will be very happy to do what we want." ”
Shehad was taken aback, but he didn't ask more, he knew what the boss said, there must be a way, he nodded and said, "As you wish, boss, I'll do it right away." ”
