The meeting place is South Africa. Generally, wealthy people who travel to South Africa will choose to hire bodyguards. You must know that South Africa is the second most dangerous country in the world. South Africa accounts for 6 of the 20 most dangerous cities in the world. This The ratio is really too high.
Because the unemployed population in South Africa exceeds 10.2 million, and the unemployment rate is as high as 30.1%. South Africa is also one of the countries with the highest unemployment rate in the world. There is no skills, there is no good employment environment, and some South Africans are very lazy. Compared with making money, Prefer to lie flat.
When Lin Rui and others first arrived, a local South African guide thought they were tourists and warned them not to bring anything with them except their mobile phones when they went out on the streets, because it was too dangerous, and the local popular "0 Yuan Gou¡±. And there are advertisements for hiring bodyguards posted everywhere on the street to protect the safety of tourists at all times.
But when he saw the guys on the waists of Lin Rui and others, he instantly understood the identities of these people, and his attitude immediately became very attentive.
In fact, there is a huge gap between the rich and the poor in South Africa, and there are slums everywhere. Moreover, black South Africans have no concept of saving. They prefer to enjoy holidays and are not willing to work even if they are given double wages on weekends. They spend the wages they earn as they go. Some black South Africans without wages will go directly to rob them. It is common for them to pry open the door of a car. In shopping malls and shops in South Africa, you can often see security personnel patrolling everywhere with guns.
But most of the security personnel use police firearms, and Lin Rui and his gang are not using the same type of weapons.
Because South Africa does not ban guns, most locals will legally buy one or more long and short guns for self-defense or hunting in gun stores. This is normal. The guide could tell at a glance that these foreigners were anything but good. The weapons they carry are not for self-defense, but are actually used for fighting. .
The meeting place is in a tavern.
The reason why we are here is because this tavern belongs to Ivanovich. As a Russian arms dealer, he has his own dens in many places in Africa. This tavern should be one of them.
After Lin Rui and others arrived, Ivanovich's people led him to the third floor of the tavern, a seat by the window. From this place, they could see
Seeing Lin Rui coming, Ivanovich quickly stood up and greeted him, "Mr. Rick, I didn't expect to see you here. I mean, I thought you wouldn't come in person."
Lin Rui smiled slightly, "Ivan, long time no see. I heard that your business has been very good recently."
"Anyway, it's just the care of my friends. Plus the recent situation, hehehe." Ivanovich smiled.
After Lin Rui and the actuary Jiang An sat down, Ivanovich hurriedly waved and said, "What do you two want to drink? I have a few bottles of good wine hidden here."
"I don't drink during working hours." Lin Rui shook his head.
"I want to know more, have Wagner's people come? They won't deny you face, right?" The actuary Jiang An slowly lit a cigarette.
¡°It should be coming soon, isn¡¯t it not yet time?¡± Ivanovich said with a smile.
Lin Rui turned to look at the actuary Jiang An, "We came early, but they made a show of it to us. That's really cool."
¡°Usually, being late in a negotiation can give you a greater psychological advantage. Making the other party wait is also a negotiation strategy.¡± Actuary Jiang An smiled.
"It's a pity that it's a boring strategy. Because while we are waiting for them, aren't they also waiting?" Lin Rui also smiled.
Ivanovich laughed loudly, "You two are really open-minded. So are these Wagner people. Using this little trick on you two is simply overestimating your capabilities. Hahaha."
"Okay, let's stop making fun of them." Lin Rui mocked, "Otherwise it will appear that we are not sincere."
At this time, the door outside was opened. Several people walked in. The leader looked like a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties, but he was strong and wearing a suit. Behind him were several similarly tall men in suits.
The man in the suit came over, and the person behind him immediately brought him a chair and sat in front of Lin Rui and others.
"What are you talking about? It's so lively." The middle-aged man looked at Ivanovich.
"Aha. We were talking about you. I didn't expect you to arrive so soon. Let me introduce you." Ivanovich said with a smile.
"No need. If we don't even know Mr. Rick, how can we survive in Africa?" The man leaned forward slightly and extended his hand to Lin Rui, "Hello, Mr. Rick. I am the representative of the Wagner Group. You You can call me Terev."
"Nice to meet you." Lin Rui nodded, but did not shake hands with him. Instead he turned to Ivanovich,Pay administrative expenses. Who do you think you are? Rick Lane, I¡¯ve heard about you. You do have a lot of power in Africa, but we don't need to buy your account. You said you were sharing the cake. But let me tell you, we don¡¯t need others to share the cake we want to eat. We will take our own knives and cut them. And you can cut as much as you want? No one can care! "Teleev sneered.
"A few years ago, many people had the same idea as you. Many of them were more powerful than you Wagner and more powerful than you. But look at it now. They have either completely withdrawn from the African market, or they are Operate under the rules of the alliance. There is no third possibility. Do you know why?" Lin Rui smiled slightly.
"Why?" Telev asked with a sneer.
"Because self-confidence cannot be eaten as food." Lin Rui smiled.
"What if I don't join? What can you do?" Telev sneered.
Lin Rui stretched out his hand, and the actuary Jiang An put a piece of paper in his hand.
Lin Rui looked at the piece of paper in his hand and said, "According to our investigation, your company has thirty-two businesses in Africa, involving six countries and multiple institutions. Here is the list."
After finishing speaking, Lin Rui pushed the piece of paper towards Teleev.
Terev glanced at it and his expression changed slightly.
"Don't be surprised. In Africa, if we want to check something, we can find it soon. Not only do we know your business, but we also know who your employer is." Lin Rui said slowly, "If you refuse today If you accept my invitation, then within the next week, you will receive many calls from your employer. They will cancel all contracts between you, even if it is a unilateral breach of contract to pay compensation. They will resolutely cancel it.
"If someone doesn't do this, I'll call those employers directly to make sure all their assignments fail. I have made statistics and found that although the prices of these contracts are not large, the sum total is not a small amount. No employer can afford such a loss. So once this happens a few times, who do you think will hire you? "
Terev was furious, slammed the table and shouted, "Then you are deliberately suppressing us and deliberately making us enemies?!"
¡°Don¡¯t put it so harshly, we are also trying to ensure the healthy and orderly development of the entire market.¡± Actuary Jiang An shook his head. "And it's not like you don't have a choice."
"So we have to join you and accept your so-called management? This is simply ridiculous! Do you think we will compromise under your pressure?!" Telev snapped.
"If you don't compromise, get out!" Lin Rui said unceremoniously. "Don't think I don't know what you have done? For all private military companies, we can very clearly check the registration time, registered capital and registered board members in the commercial registration department. Their financial status can also be disclosed through the tax bureau. Query information.
Therefore, even private military companies, which are generally regarded as the most notorious, still must accept the jurisdiction of laws and regulations involving commercial companies, and have relatively transparent business information for inquiry like ordinary companies.
But your group is not a company at all. The outside world does not even know when your group was officially established, nor does it know the composition of its board of directors. It is not even possible to determine whether Wagner has a management organization like a board of directors. In fact, your organization is more similar to a fraternity or gang.
If you look at the organizational form alone, your Russian mercenary group is an organization based on the gang system, while other private military forces are organized in the form of corporate operations.
The nature of your Wagner fraternity means that it is not under the supervision of any judicial system, and even Russian domestic laws are difficult to restrain it, because for a long time no one has been able to determine who the leader of Wagner is. After all, your organization does not Conduct social registration. This also gives you the greatest cover for your reckless actions.
¡°To put it bluntly, you guys are just fucking rat shit. But here in Africa, I can't let your rat shit spoil the whole pot. "(Remember the website address of this website: www.hlnovel.com
