Chapter 1118: Best for P· B's ship
Joga did not stay in Bossosa for long, and he left Bososa the next morning aboard a Seahawk-43.
The military base dumped by the AU will take time to sort out, and the first batch of food as gifts will need time to be distributed.
Only by putting everything in order can everyone around Bososa know that P· B is coming.
In addition to the construction of the military base, the rest of the material distribution and political negotiation issues are the task of lawyer Jory Amon.
This guy has made a name for himself in Afica in the past two years, and he has not only traveled extensively within the African Union, but has also been a guest of many Afika heads of state.
Compared to other Afika countries, Somalia is also a new challenge for Jori Amun!
The situation here is indeed very complicated, and Jory Amon needs to coordinate a lot of affairs in order to cooperate with Boss Joe's grand strategy......
First of all, Jory Amon had to act as an intermediary to coordinate the relationship between Puntland and Somaliland, so as to facilitate the coordination of materials on both sides, otherwise there would be no large-scale exports.
Puntland is not an area of Al-Shabaab activity, and is more interested in north-west Somaliland than Al-Shabaab, and although both sides are ostensibly part of the federal government, the dispute between the two sides has never stopped.
Qiaojia sometimes really doesn't understand, this broken country is like this, what is there to fight for that bit of tattered territory.
For water, for pasture, or even for a few camels, these people can fight you to the death......
Boss Joe has no interest in intervening in Somalia's internal affairs, and he has put his attitude on the lips of the Federal Government of Somalia, which is recognized by the United Nations.
Crack down on al-Shabaab, integrate export resources, and take advantage of the expansion of the demand side to promote the development of the supply side of Somalia from the side.
The most important thing is to use fishing boats to integrate the fishery resources of the Gulf of Aden and even the Arabian Sea, to use the name of the United Nations, and in the name of fighting piracy, so that he can do many, many things when needed.
In the past decade or so, Somali pirates have been so fierce, but the fishing industry around the Gulf of Aden and the Arabian Sea has recovered well.
As long as Mukala and Bososa can resume fishing, their influence will spread outward as fishing vessels expand.
Every country bordering the sea should have its own maritime exclusive economic zone......
Yemen's EEZ is small because it is located in the Gulf of Aden, but Somalia can, and they have an exclusive economic zone of 56,000 square kilometers registered by the United Nations.
As long as Boss Qiao holds the fishing industry, he is equivalent to holding the exclusive economic zone of the oceans of Yemen and Somalia.
There are huge benefits in this that are unimaginable to ordinary people!
The Gulf of Aden is the busiest waterway in the world, so it's no joke!
It's just that in the past, because Yemen and Somalia were so bad, they couldn't benefit from it at all.
This will soon change as the fishing industry recovers......
Not to mention anything else, the resumption of fishing will definitely suppress the scale of piracy, as long as the two ports in the Gulf of Aden are held, the cost of escorting ships in the Gulf of Aden of the princess's fleet can be reduced by a large piece.
From Crete in the Mediterranean to Mukara and Bososa, the exit of the Gulf of Aden, in the future, if the Shahs are willing to save face, they are willing to rent a few berths to the great warlord princess in the port of Socotra, where Yemen stretches into the Arabian Sea......
At that time, as long as the 3,600-ton Princess stops at Bososa, it will be able to control the entire area from the Gulf of Aden to the Arabian Sea.
At that time, four Seahawk-43s will regularly shuttle and patrol the sea, responding to the calls of ships at sea at any time, and they will be able to collect money from passing ships generously.
And that's not just tolls, it's maritime security services.
And any cargo ship that wants to buy insurance must buy maritime security services when passing through dangerous sea areas, otherwise the insurance company will not pay if something happens!
Many people don't know that the insurance industry is also a super financial industry with many giants, and Europe and the United States will first launch sanctions on third world countries, and they will first exert force through the insurance industry.
For example, if the United States wants to blockade Venezuela, they don't even need to send warships, they only need to increase the amount of marine insurance to Venezuela, and they can effectively block the entry and exit of bulk commodities.
Some countries have built a new port, no matter how advanced you are, you have to go through the evaluation of the International Insurance Federation before you can be included in the global port system.
Internationally renowned authoritative research companies, serving those international insurance giants.
They can even give a country's credit rating a score, and then this score will affect not only the country's financial markets, but also their insurance market.
For example, the most important department of the world's major banks is actually the 'risk control department', the main role of this department is to control investment risks, and at the same time contact with insurance companies, because many large-scale cross-border investments require insurance companies to intervene.
Global trade has a set of standards and rules set by Europeans and Americans, from currency to logistics, so they can initiate sanctions at will when needed.
Once you are sanctioned, it is good that the export volume is smaller, but if the export volume is large, it is really difficult to move an inch.
Look at Iran, Venezuela, Cuba......
It's that miserable!
In order to join the WTO, the old mother gave up a lot of interests according to the requirements of Europe and the United States, and made a lot of efforts to access this system, in order to join global trade, and to transport products to Europe and the United States with the most consumption power to earn foreign exchange and seek development.
Boss Qiao has no ability to shake this system, but in this case, if he wants to maintain the princess's fleet, he doesn't need to do much, he just needs to maintain a certain tacit understanding with international insurance companies.
Because the international commercial insurance company is not motivated to reduce the premium of cargo ships!
Boss Qiao's fishing industry can effectively reduce the number of pirates, and when the transportation risk is reduced, the risk of compensation for commercial insurance companies will also be reduced, so as long as the current rate is maintained, those insurance companies can make more money.
Until the Commercial Freight Industry Association puts enough pressure on them, they will not take the initiative to send an assessor to investigate whether it is necessary to downgrade the risk level of the Gulf of Aden.
Therefore, if those freighters want to buy an insurance protection in a down-to-earth manner, they must seek the services of a maritime security company, otherwise once something goes wrong, the insurance company will have a reason to refuse to settle the claim.
When the port relay protection model of the princess fleet takes shape, it is natural that it will crush other maritime security companies.
How do the so-called maritime security that put a few mercenaries on board compare with the princess's fleet?
You must know that the owners of sea freighters do not actually want to spend this money, but this is stipulated by insurance companies.
Then in the case of having to spend money, of course, choose the princess fleet that is cheaper and more reassuring.
A high-speed ship like the Seahawk-43 is too suitable for the current situation!
As long as there is a port to call, the Seahawk-43, a high-speed marine patrol boat capable of traveling 3,000 nautical miles at 20 knots, is very useful.
You see, new benefits have emerged from the war in Yemen!
Past P· B is the most expensive is the Air Force, and the second is the Princess's fleet.
The Air Force is okay, because every time Boss Qiao uses them, he will reap great benefits. B. The main force that made a profit through the war.
The fleet does not have an advantage in this regard, and the main reason for their waste of money is that those ships lack a stable source of profit.
Well, now not only the Air Force will be able to serve the P· B is profitable, and the princess fleet has also reduced the cost of navigation through the existence of multiple ports, which can be regarded as a stable profit point!
In the past, Boss Joe was like a captain, he could always find the right current and wind direction, and sail smoothly.
Now Boss Qiao can create a time to effectively control the course of the ship, so that the ship can sail through the wind and waves.
Joga stood on the bow of the Seahawk-43 with his arms around Nice......
In the past, he didn't like this kind of big guy who eats money, but now his opinion of the Seahawk-43 has changed dramatically.
After all, people can make their own money......
The Seahawk-43 is a 7+8 crew, but in reality, if the ship is properly overhauled, only 3 people are needed to complete the operation.
Sea commando of 8 people, which can be configured as needed.
The one that Boss Qiao owns now is the introduction fee sent by the head of the French Naval Group, Giust Fontaine, after helping to complete the Greek destroyer renovation project last time.
Compared with the three Seahawk-43s purchased at a low price, Boss Qiao's existing ship is an advanced high-speed patrol ship that the Navy Group is unwilling to abandon the Seahawk project and strives to build.
Also 43 meters long and 16 meters wide, the waterline of the ship where Boss Qiao is located is 0.5 meters deeper than the 1.6-meter waterline of the ordinary Seahawk-43.
The reason for this is the expansion of weapons......
The 12.7 mm automatic weapon station, which was originally mounted in the bow position, was moved above the cockpit and turned into two sets.
The original location where the machine gun was installed was changed to the CTAS CT40 40mm countersunk cannon.
This is not an exaggeration, but it is a bit scary that the wing-like pontoons on both sides are loaded with a 'Exocet anti-ship missile' inside.
Although Juster Fontaine made it clear that the Navy Group would not provide a purchase channel for subsequent missiles, where does Boss Joe care about this?
He won't really use this thing to go to war with a big warship, because he can't fight it, and he can't afford to provoke it!
What Boss Qiao likes the most is not the so-called Exocet anti-ship missile, because this thing is just a gimmick.
What Boss Qiao liked the most was that the French were behind the cockpit of the Seahawk-43, which was supposed to be under the unmanned helicopter parking platform, and integrated two sets of liftable Mistral missile systems.
This thing occupies the already small space inside the Seahawk-43, but Boss Qiao likes it too much!
Because the positioning of the French Mistral missile is actually the same as the Stinger, the Mistral missile system on the ship is actually the same thing as the Avenger melee air defense system that Joga has used for a long time.
It's just that the French people's aesthetics of the shape and performance of weapons are indeed better in the eyes of Boss Qiao......
The Mistral missile's 3-kilogram explosive part not only makes it much more powerful than the Stinger missile, but also has advanced guidance functions and thrusters, allowing it to strike all targets on the ground, in the air, and at sea within a range of 6 kilometers.
The French Naval Group has been rebuilding the ship for some time, but it can't be marketed alive or dead.
Not to mention that the navies of other countries don't buy this kind of thing with a small internal space, even their own navies don't like this kind of patrol boats that are ahead of their time, but 'useless' in actual combat.
But Boss Qiao likes it too much, because now this Seahawk-43 is completely in line with the P· B's current positioning.
