enchanting bodyguard

Chapter [-] Escort

Freighters, oil tankers and passenger ships in various countries fear pirates deeply.No one thought that a freighter with only a dozen or so sailors would dare to chase the pirates so far.Also, pirates seem to be really scared.

Later, someone discovered dozens of pirate corpses and floating pirate speedboats on the sea.So, the shocking news spread—the freighter flying the Chinese red flag did it!

At this moment, the freighter seemed to have a mood, swaggering triumphantly.During the pursuit, only one escaped pirate was killed—he fell from the speedboat in panic, and the rest really couldn't catch up.

But happy sailors on the freighter.These days, everyone was scared like a grandson by the pirates. They didn't expect to be so relieved today, and they were very excited.The red flag on the mast of the freighter fluttered in the wind and danced.

The shipping circle is not big, and the news immediately spread in the nearest port.Immediately, it was spread to the next port by some departing ships, and then to the next... Not long after, everyone knew: a group of powerful pirates were overthrown by a cargo ship from Huaxia!It is said that the freighter was escorted by powerful mercenaries, which made it appear so vigorous.

And the name of that mercenary organization is very strange - Huaxia Xinyi Group Labor Dispatch Company.

The legend is even more mysterious: when the Huaxia cargo ship was chasing the pirates, it happened to meet the escort warship of a certain big country.At that time, the warship asked with a semaphore: Do you need help?And Huaxia Freighter immediately responded with a semaphore: Thank you, we can clean up...

In short, the various versions of the legend are amazing.

……

Just as the captain of the ship was reporting to Zong Zida, the captain also reported to the ocean company where he was.The boss of the ocean company almost fainted when he heard that he had encountered pirates.And after hearing that he was disabled by the Xinyi Group's mercenaries, he was overjoyed immediately!

The boss was not very willing at first, but he just didn't want to offend Sister Mei, or wanted to spend money to get to know Sister Mei, so he agreed to the mercenaries to escort the two ships, which was considered a face for Sister Mei.Unexpectedly, it had such an effect.

Sometimes, thanks is also a way of showing friendship.The boss dialed Sister Mei without saying a word, thanked Xinyi lavishly, and said that Xinyi's mercenaries were of high quality and capable of fighting tough battles.Sister Mei also thinks that Bel has face—although this girl still doesn't know how mercenaries work.

The boss also said that we must cooperate more in the future.As long as the bulk cargo sails through the Western Indian Ocean, each ship will hire mercenaries from the Xinyi Group!With these mercenaries here, don't worry!

Including another ocean-going company, although they did not encounter pirates, they heard about it and immediately felt that it was right to hire Xinyi mercenaries.The safety issue is not a trivial matter, and the recovery of the huge loss is still secondary. The key is to protect the lives of the seafarers.

After answering the phone calls from the bosses of the two companies in a row, Sister Mei was overjoyed when she heard it: it's all money!Ten soldiers can earn 100 million when they go out for more than a month; when they meet pirates, they can earn 300 million.The monthly income of each soldier...the annual income...hey, how much is that? !God bless, ocean companies will encounter more pirates in the future!God, let the pirates come more violently!

This unscrupulous girl clasped her hands together and prayed devoutly. Even Qingfang who was next to her yelling at her as a "female money fan" couldn't stop her from closing her eyes and thinking about it.

……

I don't know if the ocean company is too unlucky, or a certain unscrupulous woman is too crowed.Since then, the ships of several ocean-going companies in Huaxia have encountered more and more pirates! ! !

The reason is the revenge psychology of pirates.Those pirates are seaside villagers in war-torn poor countries.After nearly [-] pirates lost their lives in the sea, the pirates in many nearby villages became furious—whether they let the pirates live? !

Pirates are very united, because unity has food.If any country dares to attack them, they will intensify their retaliation and completely frighten the ships of that country.Otherwise, they will not be able to hold their heads up.A while ago, the warships of the South Koryo Kingdom killed several pirates and captured several of them alive, so those pirates fought back with all their strength, specifically looking for trouble with the South Koryo steamship.When they saw ships from other countries, they blackmailed and hijacked them, but when they saw ships from South Korea, they killed them without saying a word.It can be seen that the pirates have a strong desire for revenge.

South Koryo was done by warships, and it was an act of the state, which made the pirates furious.But this time, it turned out that Huaxia Ocean Company did it by itself, and the pirates were even more resentful.

So, it was really as Sister Mei thought: the pirates are coming more violently!

They kept their eyes on three Huaxia freighters in a row—anyway, as long as they hang the bright red flag of Huaxia, they are their targets.The first time they encountered the escort of a Chinese warship, they returned without success.The second time, they were really hijacked by them. They not only killed a few seamen to demonstrate, but also used the remaining seamen and the ship to extort 1000 million yuan from the Huaxia Ocean Company where they belonged. If you don't give it, people will be killed, goods will be robbed, and ships will be scuttled.

The ocean company was heartbroken and could only pay the ransom honestly.

And just one day after they paid the ransom, another Huaxia freighter was intercepted by pirates.The situation was completely opposite, more than 40 pirates were all destroyed, and none of them could escape!The reason is because there are Xinyi mercenaries on this ship!

The name of Xinyi's mercenary became even louder.If the first time is a small test, the second time is fame.Especially compared with the hijacked ship in front, this ship escorted by mercenaries is even more fortunate.Even when this ocean-going company held its quarterly summary meeting, in the work report of the boss, the hiring of Xinyi mercenaries was regarded as a benefit for the company's employees.

With such a few examples, many ocean-going companies in Huaxia took the initiative to come to their door and asked Xinyi mercenaries to escort their ships.There are too many businesses to handle.Zhou Dongfei even broke the original plan and recruited many retired soldiers from related military sub-divisions in various places, stepping up to integrate into this team.Later, there was still not enough manpower, so Xiahou Jinglei brought over half of the team that Xiahou Jinglei had accumulated for several years.However, business is still busy.It can be seen from this that the business of this mercenary team is booming.

And there is another interesting or sad phenomenon: the counterattack of the pirates has become stronger, but as long as there is a ship with Xinyi mercenaries, basically nothing will happen, and the occasional danger can be effectively avoided; Yi was escorted by mercenaries, and incidents happened several times in a row.

This phenomenon further promoted the reputation of Xinyi mercenaries and greatly increased their business volume.

Gradually, even foreign ocean companies took the initiative to contact Huaxia's Xinyi mercenaries, hoping to hire them.Sister Mei was so happy from ear to ear, her strong desire for wealth made her decide immediately: Huaxia's ocean-going companies seek protection, and still pay the original market price; but foreign company ships seek protection, and each voyage is 200 million!If you encounter pirates and repel them, an additional 300 million will be added!Even so, there is still an endless stream of foreign companies looking for them.Because if you encounter pirates, the investment of 500 million is definitely worth it, and 1000 million is worth it.And if they didn't meet them, what they handed over to Xinyi's mercenaries was not 500 million, but 200 million.For large companies, it is nothing more than an increase in the price of oil or coal, which is added to the transportation cost. The key is safety.

As a result, the profitability of these mercenaries' single attendance has almost doubled again.

Zhou Dongfei's attack on Yu's house was another story. Anyway, the operation of this mercenary organization greatly exceeded Zhou Dongfei's expectations.

A year later, the fixed number of Xinyi mercenaries has reached thousands, which is equivalent to a regiment of the regular army!Fan Jianqiang also got his wish, and finally became a political commissar—although not a regular army position.Because this position is only set up at the regiment level.

As Xinyi's mercenaries became stronger and stronger, the pirates became less and less afraid to provoke them.Almost every time you provoke, you will suffer heavy losses.Gradually, even the heart of revenge was gone——was beaten.

Zhou Dongfei simply suggested to make the flag of his own mercenary regiment.As long as there are ships escorted by them, the flag of Xinyi mercenaries will be hoisted under the national flag.Not to mention that this move was really effective, even the pirates thanked Zhou Dongfei for this move - avoiding conflicts.So when the pirates saw the flag, they ran away immediately.Of course, Xinyi mercenaries also reduced casualties, and both sides are happy.

However, there are too many ships seeking asylum at home and abroad, and the team of 1000 people cannot handle it.Zhou Dongfei has another plan: sell flags!The fee was halved, but the number of mercenaries sent to the ship was also reduced to three—just a symbolic protection.Even if there were three of them, the pirates would save face when they saw each other.Because a certain pirate saw a ship with the flag of Xinyi mercenaries, but seemed to have few manpower, and ended up taking risks for profit.In the end, I was lucky enough to meet Huaxia's escort warship and drive the pirates away.Afterwards, Xinyi's mercenaries dispatched a centurion to catch the pirates and hack them violently, scaring them so much that they dared not go to sea for three months.From then on, even if there was only one Xinyi mercenary on board, as long as that flag was hung, the pirates would not dare to provoke them.

As a result, the profitability of each mercenary's single attendance has increased again!

In fact, later, when time was abundant, Zhou Dongfei could do it even if he recruited 1 mercenaries.However, he has maintained the team at more than 1000 people.Because if every ship hangs the flag of Xinyi mercenaries, who will eat the pirates?The pirates have nothing to eat, and they all returned to the village to become farmers. Who will Xinyi's mercenaries eat?In Zhou Dongfei's words, this is called "sustainable development".

As for the rest of the demobilized soldiers who came to defect later, they were all arranged by Zhou Dongfei as the internal staff, responsible for the safety of the underground world in Haiyang City, and there were about 500 of them.These people are safer, but earn less than field workers.After all, those who go out to work are desperate, fair.

I thought it was a small hit, but it turned out to be a big profit point.With an annual income of more than 30 billion yuan, more than 20 billion yuan of net profit can be left after excluding operating costs.Although it is not a big part of Xinyi Group's business, it is a steady stream of work.

But then some unsatisfactory things happened.Some people see that this business is simply huge profits, and immediately start to form some kind of mercenary company to seize the "market share" of Xinyi mercenaries.

It's understandable that everyone earns money, and Zhou Dongfei didn't think about eating alone.However, in order to attract business, individual mercenary companies even slandered Xinyi mercenaries, and even started malicious competition at low prices.Some even viciously spread rumors outside, saying that Xinyi mercenaries secretly colluded with pirates, and so on.

Playing like this is not authentic, Zhou Dongfei sneered.
