rebirth of change

In addition to paying attention to Hassan Roddy's progress recently, Chen Kangjie also has his attention drawn to the war in West Africa.

Because the geographical location of the southern country is more concerned by the Americans, Zhaguo, Babu, Buganda, and Anguilla are still fighting each other, and the Americans are not very concerned.But it is a little bit better, that is, the coalition formed by Calabi and Anguila has the upper hand, and the offense is more than the defense.

It has to be said that the Anguila army led by Lias played an important role.

In the case of internal riots and external aggression, it would be difficult to resist the army led by Karabi and his son alone. It will be different if the Anquila army joins in. At least, the Anquila government army It can help share the pressure brought by the Buganda government forces entrenched in the southeastern part of the country.

The reason why Dias is willing to help out is because they don't want to drag the war to Anguila and let the battle take place in the country of Zha. More importantly, they don't need to worry about military expenses.

Now let's talk about Chen Kangjie's role.Due to time and identity factors, Chen Kangjie could not go to West Africa again in a short period of time. However, at the end of last year, after his "introduction", Mei Jincheng went to Anguila and Zhaguo. He and Dias and Kara Bidu had a good talk, and it turned out that Meijincheng provided development funds to Dias, which was actually providing military expenses, but it was just to find a name that sounded neutral to deceive others. As for the development funds, they were used for education Or transportation or buying weapons and ammunition is not what Meijincheng needs to pay attention to.

According to the agreement reached, Megan City will provide Anguilla with a development fund of 22 billion U.S. dollars within two years. If this figure is placed in other countries, it may be nothing. Put it in Anguila, it is very unusual.At this time, Anguilla's annual fiscal revenue was only 11 billion U.S. dollars, but its expenditure was as high as 25 billion U.S. dollars, which was a serious deficit. Its military expenditure was only less than 33% of the budget.From such a comparison, it is clear that Dias has made a fortune. Not only will the military equipment be greatly refurbished, he will be able to firmly hold the military in his hands, and some of the funds can be used to win people's hearts and improve his life.

Having said that, there is also a small episode.While Megan City was negotiating with Dias, the Americans also found him and offered to provide him with assistance.Dias asked how many diplomatic representatives the United States had, and the answer was $7000 million a year.If there is no intervention by Chen Kangjie, then the aid from the United States is relatively acceptable. In the past, the aid from the Americans to Anguilla was only 2000 million U.S. dollars after three years, and this is already all the bilateral aid. And the largest amount of multilateral aid, such as the United Nations Development Program, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, the European Union, the International Development Association, the former suzerain Portugal, etc., did not give it more than 3000 million U.S. dollars.

It is not easy to get aid from the Americans. The reason why they are willing to give 7000 million US dollars in aid is because of several requirements.The first is that the country must implement comprehensive democracy, that is, the country has a multi-party system, and government leaders are elected by universal elections.For Anguila, who just ended the civil war, this is really a trick, at least Chen Kangjie thinks so.In such a country where the economy has not yet developed, the illiteracy rate is relatively high, and the society is not fully stable, once democracy is fully implemented, it will bring unstable factors, which will easily lead to internal conflicts and power conflicts, and even the outbreak of nationalism. conflict.The second requirement of the Americans is not to intervene in the wars of neighboring countries.The American eyes are now drawn by the Balkans. He does not want the turmoil in West Africa to end so soon. After he settles the interests and concerns of the Balkans, he can go back and "mediate" the conflicts in West Africa, that is, within the country and in the country. China's conflict with Buganda, allowing it to further infiltrate power here.In the past, the United States did not pay much attention to poor and backward Africa. Its presidents rarely visited African countries.Now that China has further strengthened its influence in Africa, the Americans also want to get a share.Of course, China pays attention to Africa from a strategic level, while Americans at most express their concern on a campaign level, to a completely different degree.The third request of the Americans is of course related to their immediate interests. They demand that Anguilla open the domestic oil and diamond mining industries to American industrial and commercial enterprises.

If there is no Chen Kangjie, Dias will really agree to the Americans, at least in the original history, so that in the next ten years, the investment of the United States in the country will exceed 200 million U.S. dollars every year, while China will There is only [-] million U.S. dollars of direct investment in this country every year, and the imports from this country are quite large, which can exceed [-] billion U.S. dollars a year, but most of its profits have been earned by others.

It is also impossible for Mei Jincheng to just take money without making demands, but his demands are not as harsh as Americans.At least he doesn't care about the country's political system. In our words, every country has the right to choose its development path.As for whether Anguila participated in Zha's internal war, Mei Jincheng didn't mention it either. It should be said that he didn't need to mention it. Calabi, who accompanied him to see Dias, would talk to Dias individually. Just like a normal businessman, he only needs Anguila to open up the oil exploration and mining rights to him. As for the exploration and mining of diamonds, Megan City doesn't value it.

Megan told Dias that his goal was to increase Anguilla's current oil production from 12 barrels per day to 120 million barrels a day, thereby fundamentally changing the country's level of economic development.In addition, he will also participate in the country's infrastructure construction, and strive to make Anguilla from the poorest country in the world to the richest country in Africa with the highest income in about ten years.

In addition to rich mineral resources, Anquila also has rich agricultural resources, with 2000 million acres of arable land and 500 million acres of pasture and mowed land.Regrettably, Anguilla is currently still an importer of agricultural products. Guarding the fertile land, half of the country's grain needs to be imported from outside. The current production is only 47 tons, while the demand is as high as 95 tons.No matter which country the issue of food is placed in, it is a very headache for those in power and attaches great importance to it. It is not only in China that "food is the paramount necessity of the people". It is equally important in other countries. If the common people cannot eat enough, Then the government will not be stable.

In response to this difficulty, Meijincheng expressed its willingness to lease a large amount of land in Anguilla Huambo and Bié provinces to help the country solve the food supply problem. If possible in the future, it will also lease a large amount of land and mountainous areas in the coastal plains and eastern regions .

The requirement for renting land was imposed by Chen Kangjie before Mei Jincheng left.As for oil investment, even if Mei Jincheng didn't have Chen Kangjie's predictive ability, he still knew it well. Therefore, if Chen Kangjie gave him a direction, he would know how to talk about it. There must be rich interests in this industry.As for agricultural issues, Mei Jincheng did not understand, or was not very interested in.In fact, Chen Kangjie didn't know much about it. He just planned ahead of time based on the fact that the improvement of domestic living standards in the future would lead to a large amount of imports of grain products and meat products.

China is the country with the largest population base in the world, and it will maintain this record for quite a long time.However, in our more than 900 million square kilometers of land, there is very little that is suitable for agricultural production. Large deserts, mountains, and high dry land occupy a large part.In the past, when the consumption of agricultural products was relatively intensive, we could barely support it. However, with the development of the economy and the improvement of people's living standards, especially the sharp increase in meat consumption, the demand for food has become more and more stretched. .In order to ensure food supply, in addition to vigorously developing agricultural science and technology and increasing grain yield per unit area, Chen Kangjie believes that it is also possible to implement the strategy of going out, renting and planting land in land-rich countries and regions. On the one hand, it can meet food needs, and on the other hand On the one hand, it can also create a large number of employment opportunities.The inheritance of thousands of years of agricultural society has made Chinese farmers one of the most adept at farming the land in the world.As long as they are provided with land and combined with advanced agricultural production technology, they can produce a large amount of food.

Anguilla is a country that is very suitable for food production. Not only is the climate good, but the country also has abundant water resources and dense rivers, so there is no shortage of water needed for agricultural production.Therefore, Chen Kangjie added such a task to Mei Jincheng. As for how to develop those lands and how to organize production in the future, another team can be formed to implement it.

Comparing the support conditions provided by the United States with the support conditions provided by Chen Kangjie, we can see clearly that as long as Dias is not in the water, he will make the most correct choice.Who doesn't want their regime to consolidate?Who doesn't want their citizens to have enough to eat?Who doesn't wish they had full control over the military?Who doesn't want to live a life of abundance?Who doesn't want the country he leads to prosper?Who would want to create a host of political enemies for themselves?All of this, as long as Dias chooses Megan City, he will get what he wants, and he can block what he wants to block.

After receiving the first funds transferred from Meijincheng's overseas account, Diaston was full of confidence and pride. After paying the troops a generous salary, he organized the troops to march into the southeastern region of Zha. , saying that we must maintain regional stability and work hard to help Zhaguo drive the invaders out.

At the same time, the shadow of Chen Kangjie kept appearing in Dias' mind.He didn't believe that Chen Kangjie had the ability to attract huge amounts of money before, but now he has no doubts.Dias thought to himself, if Chen Kangjie comes again next time, he must be treated well. Although he did not get an answer from Mei Jincheng about his relationship with Chen Kangjie, he already believed that Chen Kangjie contained huge energy.
