C1332

When they were having a good time drinking, McAfee suddenly ran over and saw that Xiao Peng had strangers here. He was stunned, and then asked Xiao Peng, "Xiao Peng, where is Amelia?"

Xiao Peng said: "Amelia is very curious about the port operation. She doesn't want to drink, so she follows Li Xing to see the port operation. What's the problem?"

McAfee looks at he Jianye and looks like he stops talking.

Xiao Peng said with a smile: "OK, old he is a friend. If you have anything to say, come and sit and have a drink together."

McAfee looked at Xiao Peng, lowered his voice and said, "Xiao, do you want to go to Mogadishu?"

"What?" Not to mention Xiao Peng, even he Jianye and Yang Meng raised the volume: "Mogadishu? What are you crazy about? Do you think you have a long life? "

Where is Mogadishu? The capital of Somalia! In the Ming Dynasty, it was called "wood bone all bundle state". Today, "the most dangerous capital in the world.". Speaking of this city, can think of the vocabulary is: pirates, Black Hawks fall, war, poverty, terrorist attacks. Just a week ago, there was another bombing in Somalia, killing several people. It's a common occurrence there.

A country of that size has a total economic value of less than $6.5 billion a year. And as a member of the StarCraft people to go to Somalia, isn't that for death?

What Somalis hate most is the people of StarCraft?

In fact, Somalia used to be a relatively stable country, and Huaxia has a good friendship with them. However, since the fall of siad government in 1991, Somalia has entered a period of warlord melee. Farah Aidid, the largest warlord, ambushed UN peacekeeping forces, causing dozens of casualties. Xingtiao went straight to capture Aidid.

Indeed, they sent elite troops, such as the well-known delta forces, navy seals and Army Rangers, to fight together. As a result, Somalis were beaten up.

The Somali warlord is also interesting. When there are no foreign enemies, they can use their brains to attack each other. If there are outsiders involved, they should beat the outsiders away first. Star state is the bad guy. I stayed here for two and a half years, and nothing was solved. I left with billions of dollars. When they are gone, the warlords will fight against each other again, which is still the case today.

But because of what happened that year, the stargazers were definitely the least popular people in Somalia. McAfee wants to go to Somalia? In Xiao Peng's eyes, it is definitely a challenge to the limit of life.

"I've been there many times."

"What?" Xiao Peng suspected that he had heard something wrong.

After hearing this, he Jianye asked, "I heard that people from xingtiao will be shot if they walk 50 meters at most on the streets of Somalia."

McPhee snapped his fingers and said, "that's right. It's much better for you Chinese to walk over there. You can walk 100 meters."

Xiao Peng couldn't laugh or cry after hearing this, but McAfee was right. Chinese people are still very good in the eyes of Somalis. First of all, there is "Zhenghe village" in Somalia. In the triangle area of garoway in northern Somalia, which is close to Ethiopia, there is a village called "Dong Ge Ge". The local people claim to be of Chinese descent and can speak some Chinese. In addition, there are also villages in Kismayo, a city in the south of Mogadishu, who call themselves Chinese descendants. Today, Mogadishu has surnames similar to "Lin" and "Huang".

On the other hand, when Somalia was stable, Huaxia had a good relationship with them. Their grand theater, stadium, highway, railway, radio station and so on were all built with the assistance of China. Now many old Somalis can sing Chinese songs.

Of course, after years of war, roads and railways were bombed. The Grand Theater has always been a place for local people to pray. As a result, hundreds of people were killed in an explosion, and the Grand Theater was also abandoned. However, radio stations are still in use, which are often robbed by warlords as their propaganda tools......

But that doesn't mean that Chinese people are safe there. Just as McAfee said, if you walk 100 meters, you may be shot.

Looking at Xiao Peng and their confused appearance, McAfee suddenly asked another question: "do you know who makes the most money in Somalia?"

Xiao Peng thought: "pirates?"

McAfee laughed: "no, because the profits created by Somali pirates are about 10 billion every year, and less than 200 million of them are ransoms that all pirates can earn. Who will make more than 9 billion? Insurance companies, weapons dealers, armed security companies and so on! And insurance companies make more than pirates do! In Somalia, the most profitable are the "influential" businessmen. "

Xiao Peng asked curiously, "what is an influential businessman?"

"Will you do business with Somali businessmen?" McAfee asked

Xiao Peng thought about it for a while and shook his head: "I don't think most people will do it. After all, it's a little too...... Is there a bad name? "

McPhee snapped his finger. "You're on the point. Therefore, Somali businessmen who can do business with foreign countries are protected by all parties. Any warlord or government should have a good relationship with such people. Because they can get the oil, weapons and living materials that these people need. Let me give you a simple example. Since 2012, the Somali pirates stopped for a while, but they began to move again a few years later. In 2017, a group of Pirates robbed an oil tanker called "aris 13". As a result, the ship was released without paying ransom. Why is this? One of the reasons why businessmen have influence is to solve the problem. As I said, it's a face saving existence for all parties. ""And influential businessmen are not just peacemakers. They will also cooperate with the security companies of foreign arms dealers, insurance companies and even invest in those companies themselves. As far as I know, many young Somalis are studying in your country. Those young people are either descendants of high-ranking officials, influential businessmen or pirates' girlfriends. Otherwise, where did they get so much money to study abroad? "

Xiao Peng was puzzled and asked, "Michael, how do you know so much?"

"The most influential businessman in Somalia is called mukala. Although he is Tanzanian now, he is the one that all parties want to fight for in Somalia," he said with a smile. Weapons, energy, supplies...... You can get anything through him. The pirate investment exchange established by him has alleviated the economic distress of Somali pirates and also promoted investors to become rich together. The most important thing is that his Pan African Charitable Foundation recently received a donation worth 10 million US dollars from China: 70 advanced fishing boats. These fishing boats can improve the lives of poor fishermen in Tanzania and Somalia. So he was praised by the governments of Tanzania and Somalia. And mukara is looking forward to meeting the wealthy Chinese who believes in helping his charitable foundation. "

Xiao Peng covered his face and waited for himself here for a long time.

Last time, mukara went to China to take more than 70 fishing boats back, which caused a sensation. However, Xiao Peng did not see mukala, but left it to Wenjie. At that time, he went to star country to find Amelia. How could he waste time with him? I didn't expect to let him think about it now.

Xiao Peng asked McAfee, "I've always wanted to ask you, what is the relationship between mukala and you?"

"I don't look down on them, but do you think you can think of such a wonderful idea of pirate investment exchange with the IQ of mukala?" McAfee shrugged? And you don't think Wall Street will affect Somalia? Of course not. If you pay attention, many of the ships attacked by pirates are similar to those of investment banks such as Goldman Sachs. And he's the middleman. But he also needs a strong partner, doesn't he? "

Xiao Peng blinked: "that powerful partner is you, right? I'll go. According to you, this Somali pirate is no longer an investment banker? This kind of robbery has become a financial operation? "

"If you have to understand that, I think it's OK. Believe it or not, there is a lot of room for investment here in Somalia. At least my investment income here has been good

"Do you have investment here? What do you mean pirate investment exchange Xiao Peng blinked.

"Not only that investment exchange, but also kidnapping and ransom insurance of several insurance companies; two shipping security companies; international trading company of mukala. I also account for a considerable amount of investment, so I am a Singaporean, but I am very safe in Somalia."

Xiao Peng listened to McAfee's words and didn't know how to answer it. Finally, he could only give a thumbs up: "you cow!"

McAfee shrugged: "the first thing about investing is that you can't miss an investment with stable returns. In fact, I didn't want to tell you about these things at first, but I think it would be a good life experience to go to Somalia. Xiao, I'm in good health now, but I'm over seventy years old after all. I don't know if I can take you there in the future. Well, do you want to go? "

Xiao Peng and Yang Meng looked at each other and saw the meaning of "want to go" from each other's eyes. The opportunity to visit Somalia is not always available.

Yang Meng suddenly sighed: "no, it's useless if you want to go. Amelia won't let you go."

Xiao Peng was stunned. Yang Meng was really right. He wanted to go to Somalia. After all, not everyone could have such an opportunity. Moreover, if only he and Yang Meng went there, he would not worry about any danger, but with amelia? That's not good!
