"The company has investment projects in Western Sahara?" Lin Rui said with some surprise.
"Yes, and there are a lot of them. Western Sahara is one of the poorest places, but in some previous missions. They have also been our employers. As the old saying goes, in Africa, no matter how poor you are, you have to fight the war. These people hire us but have no money to pay us, and usually they use mineral resources to pay off their debts.
It is the main producing area of ??phosphate mines, so we have obtained the mining rights of multiple mines there. In addition to some for sale, many are operated by our company ourselves. Originally, Angel, who was in charge of finance, was in charge of all this. After all, compared with long-term arrears of remuneration, the phosphate mines in our hands can be funded by the stable output of minerals. It is relatively stable, and you don¡¯t have to pay taxes, and of course you won¡¯t lose money. "Silver Wolf replied.
"I don't understand why we have a lot of investment there?" Lin Rui frowned.
"The funds required to run a company are not a small amount, especially because many employers are actually very poor. They cannot pay the remuneration immediately. Every time we complete a task for them, it usually takes a certain period of time to receive the funds. So it is also There is an advance payment situation, which is very common in the African mercenary industry.
For example, the Canavian government this time, before the war, they only had some basic defense facilities and not much funds. We invested a large portion of the funds up front as their wartime reserves. After completing the task, we will receive a higher reward based on a certain percentage.
If they can¡¯t take it out for the time being, they can also use other assets as collateral first. The more common ones are mines, gold, diamond mines, or other rare metals, etc. Usually they will hand over the operation rights of such mines to us until the debts are paid off. Compared with our previous investment, our later profits are actually very generous.
Usually, for a military company like ours, the amount of capital it can invest in advance is also a reflection of the company¡¯s strength. Like I said high risk, high reward. "Silver Wolf replied.
"So in order to ensure the normal operation of the company, we need ways to make money. This is the role of Angel, the financial director. He helps us handle the company's funds and use them to invest and make profits. Ensure that the company can advance a considerable amount of funds to receive Place large-scale contracts such as joint anti-terrorism operations in Africa." Shogan nodded.
"Yes, that's the situation. Although Western Sahara has also suffered from war, the situation was basically stable before. That's why the company chose to invest there. However, if the secret society causes trouble there, our assets will be very Dangerous. So even if we are protecting the company's investment, we have to find a way to stop them." Silver Wolf Michelle replied.
"What should we do? Kill the Western Sahara warlord leader who is cooperating with them?" Lin Rui frowned.
"This is a solution, but it cannot solve the fundamental problem. Said, the warlord leader of Western Sahara, is just a puppet brought by the secret society. After he dies, the secret society can turn to cooperate with other warlords. In a place like that, each party has its own small business. There are so many warlords, and with the power of the secret society, just one of them can replace Said's position.
It¡¯s like doing business. When you have a lot of money, you can always find the right seller. "Silver Wolf Michelle replied.
"Even if you betray the national interests?" Crazy Horse frowned.
"Western Sahara is a terra nullius, at least not widely recognized yet, and many people do not consider it a country. As for the local warlord leaders, they only have personal interests. When a warlord leader regards the country as private property, Where do national interests come from in their eyes? Warlords in Africa are fighting each other, and everyone is living for their own selfish interests. This is the current situation." Silver Wolf Michelle shook his head.
"What do we need to do?" Lin Rui asked.
"First of all, we have to know what the other party's specific plan is. In this regard, I will let the intelligence team continue to investigate. But to truly understand the secret society's intentions, we have to find someone." Silver Wolf Michelle answered road.
"You mean, Aladdin?" Lin Rui pondered slightly.
"Yes, it's Aladdin. In fact, his people got this information. It's very likely that he knows more inside information. So we have to find him and get more intelligence resources from him. Although I don't like it either Dealing with this person. But even I have to admit that Aladdin was once one of the elders of the Secret Society and a truly ruthless character. I am afraid that we cannot do without him in order to deal with the Secret Society." Silver Wolf nodded.
"Okay, I will give it a try. But I always think that Aladdin is unreliable." Lin Rui shook his head and said, "He may not tell us everything he knows. He always seems to have his own plan. This It is also we who alwaysReasons why I couldn't really work with him. "
"I understand what you mean, but now we can only try it at his place." Silver Wolf Michelle said.
"Okay, where is he now? How do we find him?" Lin Rui asked.
"He is currently in Agadir, a coastal city in southwestern Morocco." Silver Wolf Michelle said, "I have arranged a meeting place and time for you. You and your team will go there together. Get to know his details. Let's see how much inside information he knows. Although this is not a military mission, the seriousness of this matter can even affect the survival of the company, and we must treat it with caution."
"Understood." Lin Rui nodded, "I will find him and try to get useful information from him." Lin Rui and others set out for Morocco the next day.
Agadir faces the vast blue Atlantic Ocean, 8 kilometers south of the mouth of the Sousse River, and backed by the fertile Sousse Plain. Not far to the south is the famous Sahara Desert. The Atlas Mountains block the desert's heat wave on the southeast. , making this city on the edge of the desert have a spring-like climate all year round.
Fisheries and tourism are the pillar industries of Agadir. Agadir¡¯s fishing port is a natural harbor. The waters near here are rich in sardines. Morocco accounts for 80% of the world¡¯s sardine exports, and Agadir accounts for Morocco¡¯s 80%. 80% of the total, so there are many fishery processing plants.
Every day, large and small fishing boats are docked at the fishing port pier, and many fishing boats are returning to the port one after another. As soon as the fishing boats dock, the fishermen are busy collecting their nets. Some of the caught fish are sent to factories for processing, and some Just send it directly to the market for trading. The place they agreed with Aladdin was at a fishing port.
It is said to be a fishing port, but the fishing port here not only has shipyards, processing plants, and icehouses, but also banks and shops, and business is booming. Next to the fishing port is an open-air fish market. A large number of seagulls are circling and singing. Fishermen line up their catch and buy and sell it on the spot.
