Great Power Reclamation

Chapter 2129

The Port of Aden is a well-known deep-water port in the entire Gulf of Aden area. Originally, the maritime trade here was thought to be prosperous, after all, it was also a major traffic route.

But with the war everything has changed, once thriving, has become empty.

The selfishness and greed of human nature appear extraordinarily ugly in the flames of war.

Pirate leaders are like bandits who occupy mountains and become kings. Apart from plundering at sea, they expropriate and extort money within their own territories, committing all sorts of crimes.

In order to survive, the common people can only succumb to their rule and help the evildoers, because this is the only way to survive.

This is precisely the reason why Yang San and the others fought so smoothly all the way.The submission of the people does not mean that they are willing to live like this, it is just helpless.

Therefore, when stronger forces invade, they either stand by and help the enemy.In fact, it's just to make life easier for myself.

Now that he had plans to occupy the port of Aden, Yang San began to implement some measures. The so-called popular support is actually food and clothing.

And it’s not cold here all year round, so if you wear this piece, you can solve it with a piece of cloth, and the most important thing is to eat.

Originally, Yang San wanted to use the shark to manage the place. After all, he belongs to this country, but was stopped by Ye Feng.

According to his logic, as long as they are pirates, if they are not killed, it is already a kindness. How can they be reused?

Yang San didn't object in the end, and decided to handle this matter by himself.

The team members of the bayonet security team are more proficient in helping the victims of disasters.It is nothing more than buying food and supplies and distributing them to everyone.

Of course, food cannot be used by white-collar workers, and the sanitation environment in the city is extremely bad, so Yang San divided the whole city into several areas and asked the common people to start cleaning.

Those who participate in labor not only have food to eat, but also have enough to eat.At this moment, the people in the whole city are boiling.

The cities in Africa are not even as good as the countryside, because there is food everywhere in the countryside. If you go out when you are hungry, you can pick some wild fruits to satisfy your hunger.

The people in the city are not so lucky. They earn a living by selling their labor and engaging in various occupations.

And since the skeleton guy ruled here, seven or eight out of ten shops on the street have closed down because of excessive taxation.

The rest of the pirates who barely survived will not let it go, and are on the verge of struggling.

As for how to restore the economy, Yang San didn't intervene and asked Ye Feng to make the decision. After all, he graduated from the Harvard School of Administration, so it is a professional counterpart to do this.

And Ye Feng seemed to have forgotten the purpose of this trip, and began to concentrate on helping the victims.

The people are very obedient. It turns out that those pirates who are more aggressive have always been superior, but now they have nothing to eat if they don't work.

Yang San was very concerned about cleaning up the sanitation. Ye Feng was responsible for specifying the specific plan, and Yang San personally brought it in for supervision.

As for the said food distribution, there is no need to transfer it from other places for the time being, because there are a lot of them in the warehouse of the skeleton, and some of them have even started to moldy.

Ye Feng had doubts about distributing such food at first, but after seeing the enthusiasm in the eyes of the people, he understood that such food is a luxury in their eyes.

The common people are working very hard, but they just need some guidance. The people here work so aimlessly.

If you don't pay attention, the garbage will be piled up in other people's areas.

After Gabon's "patient" teaching, the situation was quickly improved. After three days, except for some places that were not easy to clean, the whole city looked brand new.

Ye Feng was very pleased, and Yang San was very satisfied.The promised food was distributed in excess.

The skeleton was hung for a day, and after dying, it was put down.Neither Ye Feng nor Yang Wei planned to let him die. After all, in the education they received, life is the most precious thing.

After recuperating for two days, after his body recovered, Yang San found him a job, which was to be responsible for checking the maintenance of the city's sanitation.

After the general cleaning, some people who worked hard were specially selected as professional cleaners in the city.

Yang San and the others will naturally have to pay for this part of the cost, but at the moment the bayonet security guards are not justified here after all, so they carried the skeleton out as a representative of the cleaners.

He has to come forward for some things that need to be communicated with the government at ordinary times.

The skeleton is also very interesting, perhaps because he is grateful to Yang San for keeping his promise and letting his children live, so he quietly acts as his road inspector.

Ye Feng began to build a lot of public toilets again, there was no other way, people here had become a habit of defecating anywhere.

The next step is to arrange for various shops and workshops to start work. The small bosses opened the shop, but there is nothing to sell. The main reason is that they were all robbed and blackmailed, so they can’t open business?
This time, Yang San can only mobilize the goods from Marseilles, pay them on credit first, and then open the shop.

Commerce is the lifeblood of the city. With the opening of shops and workshops, the people finally began to have something to do.The city will soon prosper.

People are like weeds, as long as there is a piece of soil, they can grow wildly.Even if the soil is barren and dry, it can't prevent them from growing lush.

Ye Feng is a person who studies politics, but he has never done anything related to his studies after graduation.

In view of the importance of this port, Mushroom specially approved the establishment of a branch here, and the manager is naturally Yang San.

Since it is a branch company, the scale naturally needs to be expanded. In order to facilitate management, Yang San directly recruited 500 young people locally.

These people not only have to receive strict military training, but also learn cultural courses, which are naturally Maasai language. Yang San will not compromise on this point.

I also specially invited several teachers from Marseille to study systematically.

There used to be a school here, but because there are relatively few teachers and students, it is basically in a state of listening to classes.

Yang San found the original principal and teachers and told them to continue to attend classes. As for the students, he ordered them to return to school, otherwise they would break the law and be punished.

The effect is obvious, within three days, most of the students have returned to school.

If you want to completely change the status quo of a place, you must start with education.However, it will take one or two generations of efforts to change concepts and perceptions.

Ye Feng wanted to test his ability, while Yang San thought he could control the city completely, mainly because the geographical location was too important.

The skeleton patrols the streets with a broom on his shoulders. He will pick up dirty things when he encounters them, and then angrily reprimand the people in the complicated area.

He did this work very hard and very responsible.

This is not because he has any sense of responsibility, but because he is afraid of death.After all, as a prisoner, one must have the consciousness of a prisoner. It is estimated that in this country, he is the first pirate leader who survived the war.

The wives naturally ran away, leaving only one old and one young.The old one is naturally his wife, while the young one is his wife's niece.

The descendants all left Port Dante, and they escaped for their lives. After all, they gave them a way out, so they couldn't seek death and stay here.

Therefore, at present, Skull not only has to support himself, but also has to support two wives.

I can no longer think about the past days. This is what Skeleton has done very well. He is satisfied with eating simple and rough food every day. After all, he can survive. This is already the biggest accident.

Sarah, the owner of the tavern, is the same age as Skeleton, and she was still a child when she was a child.At that time, Sarah's family was rich, while the skeleton's family was poor, so basically they couldn't play together.

However, Sara is a good person. Although she is not familiar with the skeleton, she can always give him some food when she sees him begging in the street in ragged clothes.

Because of this, the skeleton spends more time begging near Sarah's shop. After all, it will go where it is easy to get food.

Later, both of them grew up, and their life trajectories did not overlap much. Sara took over and continued to open the store. Because of her good craftsmanship, she opened two more stores in the city.

This belongs to a very wealthy family in Porto Dante, after all, it has always been poor here.

The skeleton joined the pirates and lived a life of licking blood.

Because the skeleton is smart and fierce enough, it gradually gained fame among the pirates, changing from a big soldier to a small leader.Later, wars broke out frequently, and Dante Port was the first to bear the brunt. Several factions fought for life and death.

Skeleton seized this opportunity, rose up, killed his big boss, and then led his subordinates to wipe out several other forces, and became the overlord of Dante Port.

At this time, Sarah's shop could no longer be opened due to the impact of the war.

Thinking of what happened when he was a child, Skeleton finally restrained his subordinates not to disturb Sarah's business, so that Sarah's shop became one of the only few shops in Dante Port that can continue to operate.

The skeleton walked past the tavern, and Sarah, who was sitting inside, pushed the door and came out, inviting him in for a drink.

The skeleton shook his head resolutely. It wasn't that he didn't want to drink, but that he was controlling himself.Once you touch alcohol again, you will definitely become addicted again soon.He can't and doesn't have the right to continue living like that.

"Sarah, if you have pity on me, give me a piece of meat, and I will bring it to my wives."

Smelling the aroma from the tavern, the skeleton couldn't help sniffing, and said his request.

Unexpectedly, Sara shook her head and refused: "Skeleton, you are still a person who should drink after all."

The skeleton looked a little disappointed, but finally shook his head and left. The world is cold, how can he make such a request with his identity?

His work is very tiring, and he has to patrol the streets every day, and he has to pay attention to the corners and corners.

Although he can manage all the cleaners, the bayonet security team is also patrolling him, and will punish him without hesitation if he finds a problem.

Therefore, he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest. Anyway, he is one of the few people in the city who can get a bayonet security salary.

When the sun set from the west, Skeleton finally breathed a sigh of relief. The day finally passed safely. Today, he was lucky, his salary was not deducted, and he could give his two wives a good meal.

I bought a fish from a fisherman. It was not small and weighed five catties. I carried it and walked towards home excitedly.It has been many days without meat.

His mansion has already been confiscated. In fact, he was also robbed, and then was robbed by others. Things in the world are always reincarnated like this, endlessly.

Now he lives in a simple house built of iron plates, which was bestowed on him by Yang San's kindness, otherwise he would have to live on the street with his family like many others, and just use a rag to cover the sun.

The room is very stuffy, not to mention the air conditioner, there is not even a fan.In fact, it is useless, mainly because there is no electricity.

This matter is still his responsibility. Originally, the city had electricity, but he stopped it. The main reason is that he does not want people to watch TV, listen to the radio, and use communication tools, which will add a lot to him. trouble.

As soon as he entered the room, he was stunned. He didn't know when Sarah was sitting in his home. There were two bottles of whiskey on the table, and a leg of lamb, which was very fat. The skeleton couldn't help swallowing. .

The eldest wife took the fish in his hand and hurried to deal with it. The weather is hot, and today's dinner is already available, so it needs to be stored.

The eldest wife had been married to him since he was a little pirate, so he lived a hard life.

Sarah didn't get up, but sat there looking at him and smiling, but the skeleton didn't pay attention to him, he was still angry about what happened during the day.

"I still say the same thing, you are born to drink and eat meat, don't let yourself be depraved."

The skeleton was stunned and looked at Sarah quietly. Could it be that he wanted to persuade me to resist?
Sarah poured him a drink and drank it herself.The skeleton didn't drink, just looked at him, he was full of vigilance at the moment.

Sara smacked her lips after drinking a glass of wine, and then said:

"Do you think they let you live out of kindness?"

"Otherwise?" Skull finally asked.

Sarah shook her head: "They want to control the city, but it's not right, so they need a spokesperson."

The hand that the skeleton had just picked up the wine glass stopped suddenly, and some of the wine spilled out, soaking his hand a bit.

Skeleton's heart was shocked, he is not stupid, the reason why he has grown bigger and bigger all these years is because he is different from other pirates and has maintained a lot of relationships that should be maintained?

He has always been in touch with the government and paid back the money, although he despises those politicians from the bottom of his heart.

As for the common people, although they didn't support him, few opposed him, because at least he wasn't that cruel.

His mind was running fast, thinking about Sarah's words, he felt that he had an idea and knew what to do?

The two of them drank two bottles of wine until they were both drunk. They lay down on the straw mat in the tin house and fell asleep. The little wife covered them with the only piece of cloth in the house, and then curled up with her aunt in a corner and fell asleep as well. up.

Early the next morning, the skeleton went to find Yang San, saying that he had something to report.

Soon, he was allowed to enter Yang San's office, which was his lair not long ago.

　Comrades, go!
