Although he couldn't listen to the Western reporters, Shepard tidied up his attire a little, such as a new blazer and underlined jacket, and leather boots were taken care of by the orderlies and even used as mirrors.

Then, he found that this so-called Belgian Times reporter seemed to be a little wrong.

It's not that the reporter has crooked melons and cracked jujube buckteeth and squinted eyes, it is difficult for a mature intellectual woman in her thirties not to have a good impression of her, but the other party's attention is all on Bao Man, a middle-aged man with a successful career in his fifties, a thirty-year-old intellectual big sister, and most importantly, the Belgian Times is a financial newspaper, and the other party comes to report on the affairs of United Mining.

Of course, the female reporter named Casilla didn't say a word, and after a brief conversation with Shepard, she wrote down a line in her notebook.

United Mining has entered into a new cooperation agreement with a U.S. security company to provide more reliable security for mining and transportation processes.

The delay in the delivery of United Mining has shocked the company and investors, and even shaken many investors, so United Mining would like to invite a reporter from the financial newspaper to do an on-the-spot interview, the purpose is to let investors understand that the problem has been solved, and the mining company still has a promising future.

Therefore, Bao Man's good intentions to advertise the Shadow Company ended up yellow, and the female reporter obviously wanted to quickly complete the interview task and then conduct in-depth research on financial issues with the other party, so she didn't even sit on the hot butt and hurriedly said goodbye, and when she left, she didn't forget to leave a note for Bao Man.

"This, this, this!"

Bao Man looked at the departing reporter and immediately wanted to explain, but Shepard waved his hand.

"Don't fix that, give me the list!"

In order to let the Shadow Company make a move, Baoman promised Shepard that in addition to funds, the remuneration also included six-wheeled trucks and a large number of NATO standard ammunition, explosives for blasting, and professional blasting engineers, these things are nothing to United Mining, but because Shepard wants brand new goods, so these things have to be shipped from Europe, as for the funds, Baoman paid directly in gold, anyway, it is the gold of the Congolese, and they are not distressed.

In addition to these, Bauman also signed an exclusive contract on behalf of United Mining and the Shadow Company, as long as United Mining needs to hire security in any part of the world, then it can only find the Shadow Company, although it sounds like an overlord clause, in fact, it is an overlord clause, but Bauman or United Mining and it doesn't matter, after all, the guard force they pulled their crotch is really embarrassing this time, United Mining is already preparing a layoff plan, they are ready to let these shameful guards graduate, and send this kind of high-quality talent to European society.

Shepard didn't know that he had inadvertently caused hundreds of people to lose their jobs, but it didn't matter if he knew, if he was unemployed, he would be unemployed, and it was a big deal to receive relief at home, where to eat instead of eating?

In fact, Shepard wants to set up a line with the Belgian Herstal Ordnance Company through Baoman, after all, Herstal is also a well-known ordnance company, whether it is digging the foot of the wall or buying things, it is a very good object, of course, Herstal is just its full name, and the abbreviation of this company is called FN.

In any case, the reborn who is several versions ahead, Shepard has long prepared a package of original plans, and he is ready to go the way of others so that others have no way out.

However, it is a pity that there is no Herstal company among Bauman's acquaintances, so there is little hope for matchmaking, but the supply of bullets is not a problem, and the main product of Herstal is the 7.62mm Fale combat rifle, whether it is a bullet or a rifle, it is a first-class high-grade military product, which is much more cost-effective than shipping from the United States.

In short, after completing the package of documents that should be signed and the formalities that should be taken, the time has come to March 1971, and Shepard has not even felt the atmosphere of the New Year.

However, after a bunch of things were done, the Shadow Company was finally a lot more idle, there were no mercenaries who came to find trouble, and those undisciplined tribes were not willing to provoke heavily armed PMCs, so the daily workload of the entire company was greatly reduced.

As the boss of the company, Shepard naturally knows what to do at this moment, the old employees in the company have been coming to Africa with him for almost a year, and they have walked through the rain of bullets, although everyone has done a lot of bad things, but they have also made a lot of money, so he decisively started the PMC rotation break, and the four detachments went home to visit relatives in batches.

After learning that he could take a vacation, the happiest naturally belonged to that group of Korean employees, most of whom came to Africa for that little salary, and now that their pockets were bulging, they naturally had to hurry back and show off.

However, the American and Vietnamese employees did not react, they have been in the war for many years, they are no longer used to a peaceful life, and when they go back, they are nothing more than drinking and getting into trouble, it is better to stay here and find something to do every day to kill their excess energy.

As for Shepard, he didn't go back, but found a language training class in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and learned the local language, after all, in the current situation, if the Shadow Company wants to become bigger and stronger, it can't do without the resources and markets provided by Africa, so it doesn't hurt to learn a few local languages, and it can even be more convenient to communicate with the locals to avoid misunderstandings.

In addition to learning to recharge, Shepard even went to South Africa for a turn, not to travel there, but to see if South Africa has a market, at this time South Africa is not what Mandela looked like after he came to power, South Africa ruled by white people is extremely active at the moment, as the son of Africa with the British, South Africa wants to emulate his old father, trying to create his own independent small world in the south of Africa, for which South Africa has carried out a lot of foreign military intervention, from Rhodesia to Angola, South Africa can be seen everywhere involved.

Unfortunately, none of this is something that the Shadow Company can do at the moment, but Shepard has found a lot of good things in the South African arms market, but unfortunately he can't eat them either.

At this moment, Shepard suddenly missed Smith, and the other party's network can always come in handy at such a time, but unfortunately he is not capable of taking over at the moment.

Perhaps he heard Shepard's call, and when he returned to the DRC from South Africa, a telegram from Kinshasa was delivered.

Uncle Smith, whom he had been thinking of, had arrived in Kinshasa, and he had sent a telegram to Shepard and left an address for Shepard to come and find him.
