Chapter 497 Minerals

Africa……

Luo Chenghui has stayed here for several years.

But even so, he still didn't understand Africans.

France has huge interests in Africa.

Although the French Empire has long since declined, the French enjoy benefits that are the envy of other countries.

The reason why the welfare system can be maintained until now.

The reason is that the whole of Africa is giving blood to France.

There are numerous French-speaking countries throughout Africa.

After these countries contributed cheap labor, land and cheap resources to France, they also purchased French technology and production tools.

This out and in is the reason why France can maintain such high welfare benefits.

Although the colonial people gained independence. But financial independence is still a long way off.

However, the French here, in addition to using economic means to win over, also have to maintain a certain sense of military presence.

The reason is simple. Many of those African politicians who are willing to be the lackeys of the French are complete bastards.

However, while the French are greedy for life and enjoy high welfare, not many are willing to sacrifice their lives for the government in Africa.

So there was another solution, the Foreign Legion.

However, in recent years, African politicians have had a more cost-effective option, and that is Russian mercenaries.

These people are good at fighting and don't charge a high price.

The most important thing is that the Russians accept payment in minerals rather than cash.

As long as you help them demarcate a mining area and allow them to mine freely, there will be brave Russian soldiers fighting for you.

Despite the large population in Africa, the combat effectiveness of these people is simply vulnerable to real mercenaries who are paid to do things.

A team of several hundred people can control a country.

However, the discipline of these people is similar to that of bandits. Anyway, Luo Chenghui believed that Russian mercenaries could do some things that the foreign legions couldn't do.

For example, robbing Shanglin people of their gold.

The Chinese here are like walking wallets.

Not only do the locals not appreciate the Chinese who come here to make money and work for them.

Sometimes I even feel that I am superior to the Chinese.

Robbery by Chinese is even more commonplace.

There are even some imported African talents who lure unknown young girls from China to come here and serve as their little wives.

……

Luo Chenghui is not overconfident, but sometimes some people cause damage to the image of the Chinese people, which often affects other compatriots. In places where strength and force are needed to solve problems, it would be terrible if the locals think you are weak and can be bullied.

The business that Chen Qingfeng handed over to Luo Chenghui was not complicated.

The Shanglin people who were scattered across Africa to mine gold would concentrate the gold in large cities near the Lyman region.

However, those who purchase gold are generally foreign companies, and they keep the price of gold that Shanglin people sacrificed their lives for at a very low level.

Then the Shanglin people returned to China with the US dollars they earned, and then converted them into RMB.

If you are lucky, you can save a small target amount of net worth.

His unlucky life was lost in this foreign land.

The old man was one of the first people to come here to pan for gold.

But there is currently a war going on in the Lyman region, so that the situation of the Chinese with gold on their bodies has become increasingly dangerous.

The purpose of Luo Chenghui's coming here is very simple, which is to borrow some guns and men from customers, and then to build a team with his mercenary brothers who stayed in Africa before. Ensure the safety of Shanglin people.

Chen Qingfeng directly purchased Shanglin people's gold in Africa, and then exchanged it for equivalent RMB assets in China.

This will save you from exploitation by foreigners, and it will also save you the trouble of exchange rate fluctuations caused by currency exchange twice.

Most people in Shanglin don’t know what international currency is and what U.S. dollar assets are.

In fact, they are not surprised either.

They just hope to bring the money they earn back home safely, and then rely on several years of hard work to live the rest of their lives leisurely.

Chen Qingfeng and the Shanglin Gold Rush Gang each get what they need, and everyone benefits from each other.

As for the gold, it is Chen Qingfeng's capital in Malaysia.

Luo Chenghui is indeed a mercenary who has lived in this land for several years.

Not long after he arrived here, he contacted a group of comrades who had retired from the Foreign Legion and still had not made any money.

In addition, Bute also helped them get a few guns and some locals who were willing to work with him.

In this way, Luo Chenghui's security company temporarily put up a fight.

Because the Lyman area sells Bute's face.

Therefore, Luo Chenghui was able to obtain a safe passage in the warring Leman area.

The Shanglin people's gold exchanged in the capital can be transported by truck into the desert, then safely passed through the Lyman region, and then loaded onto a plane at an airport in a neighboring country and escorted out of the country.

The gold will not be safely unloaded until the plane lands in Malaysia.

Luo Chenghui has personally led people on this road twice.

At present, the safety factor is extremely high.

It also received great approval from those Shanglin customers.

Under the care of his uncle, more and more gold diggers began to trust Luo Chenghui's security company.

But at this time, Luo Chenghui received news from China.

"Lao Luo! I heard that a lithium mine with amazing reserves was discovered near the Lyman area. The Russians sent many mercenaries there! Can you get some information back?"

"Boss! There's no problem in getting some information! But, what information do you want?"

"Go check who the exploration company is? I want to know how big the reserves are there. Also, the number and military strength of those Russian mercenaries..."

Luo Chenghui didn't expect that Chen Qingfeng would ask such detailed questions! For a moment, I felt that I had agreed a little too happily.

In Africa, there is no way to hide the discovery of minerals.

The Russians have been making a lot of moves these days. It was originally just a small-scale exploration, but now the number of exploration teams is increasing, and there are more and more armed personnel responsible for protection nearby.

So rumors spread.

The relationship between the local Leman tribes and the Russians is very bad because these Russian mercenaries are on the side of the government forces.

……

Luo Chenghui thought for a while. Although he didn't know what Chen Qingfeng had in mind, he still planned to go and have a look.

Luo Chenghui walked out of the room and went outside to get some air. At this time, Bute's villa is in the distance.

It's particularly lively here tonight because Bute has a visitor.

"Mr. Butt, I hope we can put aside our previous grudges..."

"Let go of the grudges? Shouldn't the CIA first cancel the arrest warrant against me? Just like Liu Suote did..."
