"This, this..., it's amazing!" Hearing Sulaiman's answer, Farah was very gaffey, his heart was filled with all kinds of excitement, and even his mouth was uncomfortable.

Muhammad next to him was not much better than him. His eyes were as wide as copper bells, and his lips were wide open, and he was almost left behind.

The construction of the ocean has always been a pain in the hearts of Somalis.

The current nominal government of Somalia has more than once hoped to obtain international support to build its own naval force.However, no international agreement was obtained. For such a chaotic Somalia, no one would agree to such a request.This is true even for warships or patrol vessels that have long been abandoned.

This is not a question of money, but in a place where the warlord is even worse than the government army, it is useless to give him warships.And there may be accidents at any time. After all, it is not uncommon for soldiers and generals of the Somali government to sell weapons privately.In many cases, for the sake of money, you can do everything, and really, it is not much better than warlords.

The same is true within the territory. The improvement of fishery resources is the main development direction of the territory at this stage.Some of the long coastline of Somalia, the annual fishing season (at the same time as the rainy season.), sharks and tuna bring huge profits, shark fin and canned food are good things.

In order to welcome the fishing season this year, both Mohammedi and Farah are very attentive. The residents of the territory who have fishing experience or have been engaged in marine fishing for a long time have been actively preparing under the leadership of the government.

Fishing boats are trivial to Li Lan. In the civilian shipyard of the Bosasso sub-base, fishing boats are launched every day, and he does not need to build them on the base. With the start of the engineers, each shipyard can start construction at the same time. Ten medium-sized fishing boats are painted and launched every day.

At this time, hundreds of medium and small fishing boats, even large fishing boats, have been docked in the port of Bosasso, which is not uncommon.But until now, the fishermen in the territory have never gone out to sea once, and they have all done preparations on the shore, adding nets and lighting to the fishing boats, or learning how to operate the automatic fishing equipment on the fishing boats.

It's not that these fishermen are calm and go out to sea in no hurry.It's because they have been controlled by Li Lan all the time and don't want them to go to sea so quickly.This kind of time has lasted for half a month.Now that the rainy season has arrived, the most suitable season for fishing has also arrived.

At today's meeting, Mohammedi also asked when fishermen can go fishing normally.And Li Lan just told him that he would understand when the meeting was over.Indeed, there is no need for Li Lan to explain, Muhammad and Farah understand.

That is, the territory has a navy. According to their understanding of Li Lan, I am afraid this time the fishermen will not be too peaceful when they go to sea.

Not to mention the distance, as long as you hold a telescope on the coastline of the war, you can see the fishing boats that are not flagged on the sea in the distance, and they are harvesting again and again.Muhammad and Farah naturally didn't feel good in their hearts, and Li Lan was the same.

This kind of thing can be big or small, and Li Lan just wants to make things bigger, it's best for everyone to know.Since we want to make things bigger, we need the cooperation of regular warships.Therefore, Li Lan prefers to drag, rather than intending his fishermen to engage in useless disputes with each other.What he wanted was a thunderous blow, and the work was done without anyone reacting.

"Is it necessary to have such a big reaction?" Seeing the appearance of the two, Li Lan was a little bit dumbfounded: I was so scared at just a few things, it didn't make me face up.

"No, no, I want to confirm again, how big the warships are, and whether there are big guys of about 100 tons." Muhammad asked stutteringly.

Li Lan suddenly felt rows of black lines left behind in his forehead.Not only him, but the military generals next to him all showed the same embarrassment.Sitting with such a guy is really worth it.

"Hundred tons, is that a warship? That's a small boat, but a big one! I have been with me for so many years, why is my heart so small."

Hearing Li Lan’s words, Muhammad and Farah also became sober, especially when they saw Sulaiman whose face was getting darker, they realized that things didn’t seem like them. Think so simple.

"Sir, how big is that?" Farah quickly asked.

"How big do you want?" Li Lan didn't answer him directly, but instead asked.

"Five thousand tons!" Muhammad thought he had already called out a very high weight. The five thousand-ton ship is still world-class. There is only a destroyer. If there is a destroyer in the territory, it is definitely The Gospel of Somalia, the dream of generations.

"It seems that this is my fault." Li Lan pretended to be helpless and shook his head.

"There is no five thousand tons, one or two thousand tons is not bad. After all, the light frigates of other countries also have this weight." Farah, who obviously understood the meaning of Li Lan's expression, quickly said: "The chief has paid for the Somalis. It's huge, and we really can't ask for anything. We should change it and repay the chief for his dedication to us."

"Oh!" Li Lan sighed helplessly. This time it was from his heart. "Your vision is too narrow. You have more than 60 warships and have ocean-going capabilities. What are these small fish and shrimps? It can be done. Farah, remember what I told you when we first met?"

"Remember!" This time, both of them also knew that they had misunderstood. The feelings were not overestimated, but too cautious.

Li Lan said very seriously: "I once said that in the future, my investment in Somalia will not be hundreds of millions, billions, or tens of billions. It is hundreds of billions or trillions. The construction of the army and the construction of the territory are only part of it.

You are in charge of the government's finances, and you know very well.In terms of army input, except for the allowance of the garrison, which is allocated by the financial department, the expenditure of other weapons and equipment does not use a penny of the Ministry of Finance.The same is true for the regular army. In the past two years, apart from military pay and allowances, it has not paid a cent from the Ministry of Finance to purchase weapons and equipment.

In the century-old navy, this sentence is not for nothing.I didn't tell you, and you naturally did not know that the building of the army really costs about 100 million US dollars every day.They are all used to purchase weapons and equipment. Without such a huge investment, how could our army defeat Ethiopia so easily?You know, our twelve days of military spending alone is the amount of Ethiopian military spending in one year.

Maybe you don’t have an intuitive impression yet. Let’s put it this way, my investment in military weapons and equipment in one year is equal to one-tenth of the United States’ annual military expenditure.The total military expenditure of all African countries is not as much as ours.According to the rankings in the world, we are already in the top eight.The purpose is to build a navy, land, and air force capable of fighting."

Hearing Li Lan's words, both Muhammad and Farah were silent at the same time, and their expressions became very serious.

After looking at the two of them, Li Lan continued: "I just want to make it clear to you, don't underestimate my determination. I said that Somalia must be made a world-class country. This sentence counts now, and it will count in the future. You two don’t have to guess. I can tell you clearly that the current naval forces can sweep all countries in Africa and the Middle East."

"I am ashamed of my thoughts." Farah took a deep breath and said solemnly, "You will always be our chief."

"Your kindness to us Somalis cannot be repaid even by descendants and grandchildren." Muhammad also solemnly said.

"I know your intentions very well, otherwise the two of you will not always follow me. The purpose of me telling you this is to make you clear. The current territory already has a strong power, and I hope you can absorb these news as soon as possible and strengthen your self-confidence. People who have the qualifications to be equal to ours are not those influential armed forces, but those mainstream countries. The strong should have the posture of the strong. In this way, We can only look far ahead. Don’t stare at the one-acre three-point land all day long. It is not the Somalis who hinder us, but the European and American countries that are trying to prevent us from reunifying."

After Li Lan stopped here for a while, she continued: "Of course, I didn't tell you in advance. Because I don't want to put too much pressure on you beforehand. Perhaps in your eyes, all mainstream countries are high. Unattainable existence. And now, I need you to change your mentality as soon as possible. When facing other countries, we can lose everything, but we can't lose our mentality."

"We have been taught." Upon hearing Li Lan's words, both of them solemnly promised.

"It's best for you to understand it. I don't want to say this kind of thing a second time." Li Lan was fairly satisfied with the attitude of the two.

Li Lan has also noticed the long-standing inferiority mentality in the two people's minds. Not only these two people, but this mentality is common among Somalis.Strictly speaking, Muhammad and Farah are much better than the average person.But that is not the standard Li Lan needs. Li Lan wants them to fully establish pride and confidence.

What he needs is the kind of subordinate that can maintain a normal heart in the face of anyone.Even if the President of the United States is standing in front of him and uttering the word war, he must maintain a calm attitude.
