Located at the westernmost tip of the West African protrusion, Sagarata has a total population of 16 million, a land area of 200,000 square kilometers, and a total GDP of $18 billion in 2018.

Sagarata is one of the least developed countries in the world, with 70% of the population engaged in agriculture and forests accounting for 31% of the total land area. Arable land accounts for about 27 per cent, with hilly highlands in the east and southeast, and undulating sand dunes in the north.

It is rich in natural resources, with deposits of diamonds, gold, manganese, nickel, uranium, iron and oil.

As of 2017, there were about 220 million barrels of proven oil reserves, 1.1 trillion cubic meters of natural gas, 1.5 billion tons of iron ore, 1.2 billion tons of bauxite, 440 million tons of nickel and 35 million tons of manganese.

However, due to the intricacies of internal political, clan, and religious forces, it has been affected by wars and local conflicts, and the contribution rate of natural resource development to national wealth is less than 1%.

Speaking of internal conflicts, it is impossible to mention the history of Sagarata.

In 1638, the French established a trading post at the mouth of the "Sagarata River". Throughout the 17th and 18th centuries, Europeans transported large numbers of slaves, ivory and gold from Senegal.

At the beginning of the 19th century, it became a French colony and was ruled by France for half a century, until 1960, when France signed a "transfer of power" agreement.

However, the power was transferred, but the "knife" behind it has remained in Sagarata, and although it is a democratic republic, it has actually always been the backyard of the French.

And a fully unified political system is clearly not in the interests of the French;

This can be referred to China's close neighbor "A Sanniang", who has been ravaged by the British for so many years, and has become accustomed to it now. As long as the British roared, they immediately untied their clothes and took what they wanted.

Gossip aside.

After many investigations by Han Yi, Sagarata was finally chosen as the main overseas base.

A relatively smooth political system is also not in line with his mentality of fishing in troubled waters, and the abundant natural resources buried in the ground are critical for manufacturers.

In addition, the "Green Cape" archipelago, which is 500 nautical miles away from Sagarata, is a key maritime communication point on the four continents of the United States, Africa, Europe and Asia.

It is a necessary place for the sea route from Europe to Africa to Asia, and it is a supply depot for ocean-going ships and large aircraft from all continents, and is known as the "crossroads of all continents".

Once you've chosen your goals, the next step is a field trip.

With Surreel, Doom One, he landed at the port of Gakana, the capital of the west coast of Sagarata, and then drove to his hotel in the city center.

Although I have long known from the news that Africa is very poor, and Sagalata is even poorer, but I didn't know until I saw it with my own eyes, how is the word "poor" written?

As the nation's capital and home to the president's official residence, Gakana resembles a small western Chinese city in the early 20th century, with skyscrapers almost impossible to see;

Along the way, you can see the kind of self-built two-story small buildings, one in the east and one in the west, which are chaotic, uneven, and irregular;

It's like pulling poop, pull a big bubble here, and then others don't think it smells, squat a little farther away and pull a small one.

When passing through the market town on the downhill road, there are no rows of commercial shops on both sides of the road, but like a market, a tent is set up, and a felt carpet is spread on the ground, which is full of small goods imported from China, selling iron pots and copycat mobile phones.

In the crowd, vans and Toyotas danced together, and suits and leather shoes flew together.

"Dididi-"

Behind it, a beige taxi resembling the 80s in the United States made a rapid urging sound.

Surier turned a deaf ear and drove slowly forward with the Peugeot 308 in front of him.

If you want to go fast, you can't go fast, and the crowd in front of you is jammed, unless you put on your wings and fly over.

Finally, the road ahead was opened, and the wide Escalade bulletproof off-road vehicle rushed out with a compelling momentum.

............

An hour later, we came to the city center.

It is much better than the southwest area where the port is located, at least the urban construction plan is more uniform, and there is not so much garbage on the road;

Occasionally, there is a beautifully built garden-style manor castle, which looks like a flowery and leafy castle from a distance, and I don't know who lives in it?

All the way to the northeast, passing by the city government, the court building, and the embassy area in Saza, I came to the five-star hotel "Lata Hotel".

The black doorman with a red top hat waited enthusiastically by the car door, waited for the car door to open, and after seeing an oriental face, he said in Japanese: "Empty you wow~~"

"Chinese. ”

The doorman immediately reacted and said in awkward Chinese: "Hello, welcome." ”

Under the guidance of the doorman, Han Yi came to the business suite booked in advance.

As soon as he entered the room, Han Yi put himself into the beige sofa that could be used as a bed to sleep on, "Surier, help me pinch it, it's falling apart." ”

At the door, after tipping, Surrell came over and sat on the couch to kill the chickens for him.

Her strength is just right, kneading, pinching, pushing, knocking, every muscle, every acupoint is very in place, and Han Yizhi snorted, "Your technique is about to catch up with a professional technician." ”

Suriel said, "The muscles in your waist and legs are too loose and need to be exercised properly. ”

"Yes. Let's wait until this is over. ”

After five minutes, Han Yi opened his eyes and said, "Okay." ”

He sat up and stretched his arm and asked, "How is the government in contact?"

Surier replied: "The intelligence center contacted a Socialist MP named Sisi Zimmerman, who is one of the eleven members of the Gakana Business Union Committee, who belongs to the radical faction. ”

Don't look at the "Council of Business Unions", which may not sound like much, but know that it is an economic and monetary union formed by the merger of the "army" and the "public security forces" of Sagarata;

He was responsible for coordinating foreign policy and transportation, and controlled the internal confederation organizations and systems, and had great power.

As for which faction, this is not a big problem, in front of Franklin, all of them will become money factions.

Han Yi nodded and said, "Inform me, I'll invite Zimmerman to dinner tonight." ”

"Got it. ”

............

7:30 p.m., VIP Ballroom at Hotel Latta.

Zimmerman is a dry, thin black man in his 60s, wearing a slightly fat white shirt and a thick beard;

While eating, a pair of small mouse eyes swept over the Jaeger-LeCoultre watch on Han Yi's wrist from time to time, and there was a greedy light flashing inside.

Han Yi stretched out his hand and gestured to the side, and Suriel, who was wearing sunglasses and a cap and acting as a translator, handed over a delicate brocade box.

"Mr. Zimmermann is a noble person, and only such a watch is worthy of you. ”

The little black old man had no scruples, opened the brocade box in front of Han Yi, and when he saw the shiny Rolex diamond watch lying quietly inside, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

"Tell me, what do you want?"

Han Yi said bluntly: "I want to invest in the construction of a high-tech R&D center in Sagarata, but it involves some administrative procedures, and I hope Mr. Zimmerman can help me solve it." ”

"For example?"

"For example, like conventional military weapons and equipment. ”

"Haha, of course it's fine, as long as you have the money. ”

"Of course I have the money, but as you know, the business environment in your country is really worrisome, especially in the northeast, where there is perennial turmoil, civil armed groups, local families, etc., and all parties are entangled in power, and I am afraid that my investment will be lost. ”

The little old man skillfully cut the fried foie gras on the plate, and said as he ate it, "There's nothing to worry about." As long as you don't leave Gakhana, I promise you won't have anything. ”

Han Yi frowned, "Mr. Zimmerman, I'm here to invest, I just want you to guarantee that my normal business activities will not be affected." As for my personal safety, I don't need to bother you at this point. ”

"Of course, of course. The little old man smiled, "You submit the relevant procedures, and I will help you get it done later." ”

"It's that simple?" Han Yi asked, glancing at him.

Han Yi was still waiting for him to say how to do it, such as introducing other members of the Business Alliance, leaders of local forces, and leaders of non-governmental armed organizations to him, and so on.

To open this kind of special research institution, it is not only necessary to have an approval, but also to balance the interests of all parties, otherwise there will be a lot of trouble in the future!

Unexpectedly, this old bastard who took millions of dollars in benefits before and after, actually perfunctory him.

Whoever believes is a fool.

Call him again and reassure him that it is being processed, and then continue to ask for benefits under various pretexts.

The little old man put down the knife and fork in his hand, took a sip of fresh orange juice and said, "This is not China, nor is it Europe or the United States, this is Sagarata, and the people are so poor that they can't even eat, so who cares what research institute you open? Are you right?"

As he spoke, he pulled a napkin, wiped his mouth and threw it on the plate, "That's it for today! If it's okay, then I'll go first?"

Han Yi lowered his head to cut the steak, his face expressionless;

After finally cutting it off, he put a fork in his mouth and chewed slowly, "Mr. Zimmerman, there is an old saying in China that I don't know if you have heard, it is called taking people's money and eliminating disasters for others!"

After a pause, Han Yi smiled again and said, "Okay, I'm waiting for Mr. Zimmerman's good news." ”

The little old man didn't speak, and after standing up and walking a few steps away, he turned his head to look at Han Yi, who was sitting there with his back to him, with a disdainful expression in his eyes, and then walked away without looking back......
