Chapter 520 Frequent making friends with powerful Egyptians
"Boss, this is the latest work progress of the Intelligence Department!" Wang Ning, who hurried to the Camel Mountain base, put a document bag on the table in front of Li Mo.
Although technology is advanced nowadays, it is more convenient and faster to store data in ways such as network hard disks, and the amount of information stored is more than double that of paper files. However, as an intelligence work, the security surname of network storage is not as good as the ancient way of paper recording.
And Li Mo, Wang Ning and others are also used to recording important information on paper. With their strength, they put some important secrets on them, and they don't worry that others will take them away.
Li Mo casually opened the file in the file bag and looked at it, and then threw the file on the desktop. He looked at the maturing intelligence minister in front of him and said, "Tell me what are the problems in China recently?"
Wang Ning seemed to be prepared for this. He nodded and said, "Okay boss! There has been no major movement in China during this period. The main change comes from the political axe, and it is still a good thing for Somalia..."
Li Mo listened solemnly. He knew part of what Wang Ning said. Under the strong reform and tough promotion of Yu Sufu, the Somali political axe had passed the beginning of the running-in period and entered a normal working state. During this period, due to the geographical location of Somalia and the current small reputation of Somalia, the number of foreign investors has increased significantly. For Somalia, where the industrial economy is weak, it is simply injected with a needle of blood. Many cities and regions have been rejuvenated and gradually come out of the trauma of the civil war of the past decade.
Investors who come to Somalia may have come to invest in the spirit of 'adventure' at the beginning. Many people plan to risk their lives to make a fortune and leave. But when they were exposed to different treatment and feelings from other African countries in Somalia, these foreign 'adventures' were shocked.
First of all, as a new regime that has just emerged from a divided civil war country, generally speaking, the domestic control will certainly not be like those countries that have been peaceful for more than a hundred years. However, in Somalia, walking in a slightly larger city, you will find that the cities here may be smaller. The buildings in the city are a little old, not as high-rise buildings and crowded as foreign big cities. But there is also something different here.
Especially compared with other African countries, many foreign people have found that the security environment in Somalia is very good, and many people who have stayed in Somalia for several months have not witnessed a criminal activity.
This strange situation has attracted the attention of many people. Generally speaking. The poorer or more developed the region is, the more criminal activities are repeatedly prohibited. Criminal activities in poor areas are mostly manifested in violent crimes, while in developed areas are mostly manifested in IQ crimes and high-tech crimes.
How can Somalia, a country with an annual per capita income of just over 200 US dollars, make the domestic security environment so good?
This has to be mentioned as well as the propaganda of the New Deal Axe and Wang Ning's intelligence department. Perhaps after more than ten years of civil war, the people are generally full of disgust and resistance to violence. Many regions have spontaneously set up non-governmental organizations to oppose all kinds of violence. In addition, the political axe department has worked hard to change the poverty situation in China and increase the reconstruction of domestic infrastructure through financial or foreign aid. It has brought a large number of jobs to many areas, so that those who are "do nothing" or poor people have a job that can solve the problem of eating. In addition, Wang Ning's intelligence department repeatedly carried out the suppression of possible criminal organizations in China under the order of Li Mo, and even used the army several times to encircle and suppress the remaining large-scale non-political axes.
The New Deal Axe and the Parliament devote all their energy to the development of the national economy and the improvement of national strength for the country. Many newly promulgated laws against criminal acts are extremely severe. For example, robbery, as long as the value of the robbed item exceeds $5, it is the death penalty. After many criminals are sentenced, they go not to serve in prison, but to dig roads or mine property. This severe punishment with almost no human rights is an obvious deterrent to criminals.
The change in the security environment has made the cautious investors in Somalia very surprised and satisfied. At least invest here, don't worry about being blackmailed by various local criminal organizations and tribal armed forces. Because in Somalia, the judicial system may not be perfect, but compared with other countries, one difference in Somalia is that many criminal activities are introduced into military law.
Here, even if it is a small town, if you encounter a criminal infringement, as long as you are safe, you can report to the local militia, and someone will help you deal with this matter soon. In some big cities, you can not only report the police to the local police, but also report the case to the military duty department commonly built in big cities. Criminal complaints are directly accepted by the military duty department!
This kind of behavior in which the military directly participates in the investigation, arrest and punishment of local ordinary criminal crimes has been rare several times around the world. Somalia is one of them. This is mainly because Li Mo and Hussain are not used to the attempts made by local law enforcement departments to procrastinate or even do nothing in dealing with criminal activities.
Although Somalia has been peacefully reunified for more than a year, each major city has a corresponding-scale garrison, which is basically the regular national defense force of the military region of the city. Generally, the size of the garrison varies according to the size of the city, but the general garrison in big cities is about one battalion. Like Mogadishu, the capital of Somalia, the army guarding the capital is more than one brigade. This is not to mention other troops stationed in the cities around the capital.
Such an arrangement, in addition to preventing crime and other intentions to create chaos, subverting political axes and other rebel acts, is also an important guarantee for the Star Organization to firmly control the domestic situation!
"Boss, this person has been very active in the upper class of Mogadishu recently, and has frequent contact with political axe and military personnel!" Wang Ning suddenly took out a photo and reported to Li Mo with a serious expression.
In the photo, there is an African in his forties, but his skin color is 'whiter' than the common Somalis. Needless to guess, I also know that this person must be from a country in North Africa, and maybe he has white blood.
"Boss, this man's name is Muhammad? Musa, according to the entry information, he is an Egyptian and a rich food merchant. He is mainly engaged in the processing of various agricultural products and animal husbandry products, and also runs a part-time farm and ranch!"
Li Mo looked at the man in the photo and frowned slightly. He always felt that something was wrong with this person. It's not that this person has any bad behavior. Although his ability is strong, it is impossible to tell whether a person is good or bad from a photo. It's just that he felt that there was something wrong with this person's smile, which gave people a very fake feeling. But Li Mo feels that this feeling is not normal. After all, it is normal for a businessman to know that hypocritical fake smiles. Even Li Mo often laughs a few times. But why does the person in the photo give him a strong hunch?
"Has your intelligence department verified its identity in Egypt?" Li Mo frowned and thought for a long time, but he couldn't think of a reason. He had to put down the strange feeling in his mind.
Although Wang Ning's intelligence department has been established for only a few years, the main force is also in Somalia. There is also a certain intelligence network in several countries around Somalia. For a big North African country like Egypt, it is impossible for the intelligence department to ignore the past.
"We passed through Muhammad? Musa's entry information, I found this Musa's hometown in Egypt, located in a small town under Damanhur, the capital of Bouela Province. According to our survey, this Musa is indeed a well-known local food processor with a local food processing factory. However, to our people's surprise, this Musa was a worker two years ago. It seems that a year and a half ago, he suddenly inherited the heritage of a wealthy relative in the Egyptian capital, and then opened a food processing factory by himself..." Wang Ning also frowned and said puzzledly.
"So have you verified Musa's deceased relative?" Li Mo asked.
"It has been verified, and it is the only one mentioned in the data. However, it is said that his relative has not been in contact with Musa for a long time, and this relative himself originally had a son and a daughter, but they all died in an accident a year ago!"
Originally, a poor person suddenly inherited a large amount of property, which is not worthy of people's attention. Because with the improvement of relevant laws around the world, it is rare for property to be confiscated or used for public welfare after death. There are no heirs except for the deceased who deliberately made a will or confirmed the deceased before his death.
But it is doubtful that this Musa's relative, a son and a daughter, died in an accident before his death. The whole thing looks seamless, but it's too coincidental.
What disturbs Li Mo most is that Mr. Moussa, the food processor, went to Somalia to make friends with dignitaries, which is not normal. Because this Musa is not a diplomat or a local foreign representative of the international chaebols. It's not surprising that a small food processor comes to invest in Somalia, but frequent contact with Somali military and political officials is not like what a food processor should do.
"Did he come to invest in Somalia?" Li Mo continued to ask a question.
"Yes, Muhammad? A week ago, Moussa had decided to buy a pasture in Baidoa and the Elgarh region of Bari, respectively, intending to set up a company that integrates breeding, processing and selling. It is said that Moussa intends to invest $2.5 million to complete the formation of this company!" In Somalia, the intelligence network of the Ministry of Intelligence is more dense, and Moussa's every move can be said to be detected by the intelligence department.
"2.5 million US dollars? It's not a small handwriting!" Li Mo was stunned when he heard the words and suddenly smiled and said, "Continue to monitor this Musa, especially the list of military and political officials he made must be recorded in detail. Maybe he can catch a big fish for us this time!" Li Mo's tone is quite meaningful...
