Chapter 677 Drug Market
Luo Xiang's words were on Li Mo's heart. The main purpose of establishing a training base in Chad was to avoid people's eyes and ears and train a secret force for themselves.
With the establishment of the Xueying Mercenary Organization, more benefits have gradually emerged. There is no need to say more about fighting and training. In Africa, such a group of people are active everywhere. As long as you are not afraid of death and dare to kill, you don't have to worry about doing business. And when the size of a mercenary organization reaches a certain level, it is not only the man's money to eliminate disasters in Africa, a place full of war. More things can be done, such as controlling strategic points, grabbing resources and minerals, etc.
As far as Li Mo knows, many of the mercenary organizations active in Africa are secretly supported by state forces. With one more Somalia, others can't publicly blame anything.
However, sending a regular national defense army to join the mercenary organization for training is always a gloomy thing for the outside world. Everyone has a tacit understanding with each other. The struggle is in the dark. On the surface, no one tore up the fig leaf that blocks the public's sight. As for how much benefits can be gained through the controlled mercenary organization, It depends on their respective skills.
Li Mo plans to call the Falcon back. Let's have a meeting to discuss it. Because once this plan is implemented, it is not a matter of one or two departments. It can be said that most departments in the organization will be involved. Li Mo sometimes likes to be arbitrary, but on some issues, he likes to brainstorm and let his subordinates discuss.
After receiving Li Mo's order, the staff immediately organized a group of loyal staff officers with no problems to discuss and analyze this plan. After the high-level meeting, they had to come up with a specific implementation method.
And the external departments of the intelligence department, the sales department and the production department all took action around the plan. After the news from all parties was summarized, Li Mo thought that he had approved the plan in his heart, but how to implement it had to reach a conclusion at a meeting.
On this day, Li Mo was considering the trial results of the Supreme Court's trial of several major cases of the navy and marine departments cracking down on illegal fishing in other countries. Fan Qingqing came in and reported that a guest from China came.
"Who is it?" Li Mo put down the pen in his hand and asked in surprise.
He did not receive a notice from the relevant Chinese department before, indicating that the person who came was not from the political axe, and his personal friend, if he wanted to come to Somalia, would definitely call him directly.
"The message was sent back by Taurus. He didn't call you directly, but to the office." Fan Qingqing replied. Now she has basically integrated into this big family. Usually, she calls someone a nickname internally, not a serious name.
Li Mo was shocked. Jinniu sent to the Golden Triangle area to cooperate with General Naiwen, the armed leader of the drug lord in the Golden Triangle, to set up a small arms manufacturing base to produce arms for the [***] armed and drug lords in the Golden Triangle area. Li Mo didn't want to make much profit from this base to bring to the organization at the beginning. He just want to press a nail in the Golden Triangle area, which may be useful in the future.
Later, in order to restrict Jinniu's ' feudal officials' outside, Li Mo sent the elephant there again, because Li Mona Wen sold a group of infantry chariots to General. The elephant used to be called helping Naiwen train soldiers, and another purpose was to form a network belonging to the organization in the Golden Triangle.
And this time the guests who come to convey through Taurus must be related to General Nevin, and maybe they also know themselves.
A figure appeared in Li Mo's mind. He quickly stood up and asked, "Where is the guest?"
Fan Qingqing glanced at Li Mo and said antonically, "I've never seen you in such a hurry. Isn't you just a drug dealer?" Noticing that Li Mo's face sank, Fan Qingqing quickly hugged Li Mo's arm with a smile, rubbed it slightly with his fullness, and said, "I have sent someone to the airport to greet him. Don't worry!"
Li Mo was distracted by Fan Qingqing's little movements. He stretched out his hand and grabbed it. He shook his head helplessly and smiled, "The other party is a drug lord. I am an arms dealer. There is no difference between the two. They are almost the same kind of people. You, the work of Guoan in the past almost fixed your mind.
He curled his lips, and Fan Qingqing didn't plan to distinguish.
Li Mo did not choose to receive Gu Tianfei in the office of the Ministry of National Defense. After all, the other party is a drug lord. His current identity attracts attention. If the outside world finds out the relationship between the two, it will always be a big trouble. Li Mo chose a villa in the South District. There are only two owners of this villa, Fan Qingqing and Fox. Li Mo occasionally comes here to stay here for a few days.
Li Mo was very happy to meet Gu Tianfei again. At the beginning, in Huaxia, the relationship between Li Mo and Gu Tianfei was good. Both sides have received help from each other, but later, after the focus of Li Mo's development shifted to Somalia, there was less contact with each other.
"Brother Gu, why are you here? I heard that you are no longer doing business in China, but have returned to Wabang. After Fan Qingqing poured a cup of warm tea for the two, Li Mocai asked with a smile.
Gu Tianfei is no different from two years ago. He said that he must say what's the difference, that is, he looks a little darker and more resolute than the previous successful person.
"After you left China in 2005, I thought that the country already knew about me. Suo sold Shucheng's industry and returned to Wabang with a group of loyal people. Speaking of which, brother, I really need to thank you. If it's not you, I don't know when I can return to my hometown. Although Gu Tianfei's words were a little grateful, he was more happy.
At the beginning, Gu Tianfei's father failed to participate in the reading movement and died. He fled to China alone. Although he has built a world for more than 20 years, although China is good, it is far less than his hometown for Gu Tianfei, a Chinese born in northern part of Myanmar.
But the northern part of Myanmar is too complicated, and various forces are full of it. Internal power struggle, the infiltration of external forces, conflicts with the political axe army, interest disputes and vendettas are staged every day. Gu Tianfei wants to avenge his father. How difficult is it to complete his father's wish? Although the northern part of Myanmar is close to China, as one of the overseas Chinese, it is said that the motherland should be the happiest recently, but in fact it is not the case. Because the forces represented by Gu Tianfei and Naiwen are not Chinese organizations in the Kokang region, and their relationship with Huaxia is not close, let alone the support of Huaxia.
Later, he also met Li Mo and provided a large number of arms supplies, so that Naiwen persisted in the encirclement and suppression of other drug lords and political axe troops, and gradually developed and stronger. At present, in the Golden Triangle area, General Naiwen has been called the second Kunsha. With more than 2,000 armed men in their hands, as well as heavy weapons such as armored vehicles, they have repelled the attack of the political axe army several times and have gained a foothold in the Golden Triangle.
Of course, Li Mo will not accept Gu Tianfei's thanks. It can be said that there is more cooperation than friendship between the two sides.
"I'm here to ask you for help this time. I hope Xiao Mo can help me!"
Li Mo straightened his face and said, "What did the eldest brother say? If you need it, just say it. I have some strength now, and some things can definitely help you.
Gu Tianfei, who had always been a little nervous, finally smiled happily when he heard the words. Li Mo is still the same Li Mo. He did not change because of his identity. Before he came, he was very worried about this aspect. Li Mo is now a leader of the [***] team and a prince in the world. He is armed with drug lords like him at more than one level. At the very least, the other party is legally armed with tens of thousands of arms, but he is out of sight. His name is in the blacklist of Interpol. If he didn't come to Somalia this time, it would be Li Mo's territory. Gu Tianfei would not leave the Golden Triangle anyway.
"Xiao Mo, there are two main things I need your help with this time." Gu Tianfei said, "The first thing is that I withdrew from the Huaxia market. The sales of goods are not ideal. I hope you can help me open a channel in Africa."
Another thing, Gu Tianfei did not say immediately, but looked at Li Mo with a little nervousness.
Li Mo frowned and asked after thinking for a while, "Brother Gu, is there a big market in Africa? The white powder should only be consumed by rich people, right? Except for a few countries in Africa, most people don't even have enough to eat. How can they afford to buy white powder?
The world's largest drug market is the United States, and the annual profit of drugs reaches 100 billion US dollars. It can be seen that economic factors are very important for drug sales.
The richest people in Africa are the tribal chiefs and armed group leaders. Most of these people are people with perseverance, and it is difficult for drugs to be accepted by these people.
The annual global drug trade volume exceeds one trillion US dollars, accounting for 10% of the total global trade, and even more than oil and gas, of which profits can be imagined. Developed countries are also the main market for drugs. Africa also has a drug market, but it is small in scale. Africa is an important transit point in the global drug sales network.
Whether it is Colombia or Jin Xinyue, most of the drugs shipped to Europe are transiting in Africa. Li Mo wondered, did Gu Tianfei plan to do the same?
"Xiao Mo, although the market in Africa is small, it is relative. Across Africa, drug sales are also $120 billion a year. In recent years, drug production in the Golden Triangle has not been available, and now we have withdrawn from the Chinese market. Nevin and I can only think of this way. Prepare to open up the situation in Africa first, and then sell drugs to Europe through Africa. Gu Tianfei explained with a wry smile. At the end of the Kunsha era, the drugs in the Golden Triangle have been pulled down from the global boss position. Now it is not the new and old Golden Crescent, or Colombia has more drugs than the Golden Triangle every year. Colombia is close to the United States, and several tons of drugs enter the U.S. market through various channels every day. The profit is amazing.
"I remember that there is also a drug base 'Black Triangle' in Africa, north of South Africa. The market here should have been occupied a long time ago, right? Li Mo is very satisfied with Gu Tianfei's withdrawal from the Chinese drug market. In this way, if there are fewer drug sources in China, the market will definitely shrink. Even if other drug bases occupy this market, transportation channels are much more difficult.
