Red Alert: I am a sheikh in the Middle East

Just as he was about to hang up the phone, Zhang Ga asked again: "By the way, do you know McKenney's Pumice Island?"

"Pumice Island?" Li Yiman's tone changed, "What do you ask this island for?"

Zhang Ga briefly explained the matter.

Li Yiman said solemnly: "This island is very close to Yemen's Socotra Island, only a few tens of nautical miles away, so there has always been a sovereignty dispute. McKenney said that this island is his, but in fact he does not own it at all. Having landed on this island, it is clear that it is cheating you!"

Zhang Ga was taken aback.

He didn't expect an island to hide such tricks.

Sovereignty disputes?

Zhang Ga frowned, but quickly spread it out.

If it was a dispute with other countries, Zhang Ga would probably not want it.

But since it's Yemen...it doesn't matter!

Yemen is the iron younger brother of the rice guys, and there are still a large number of rice troops stationed in the territory.

Moreover, the Garan armed forces had had several conflicts with them before.

At this moment, the Yemen army is still harassing the good brother Anman next door, and Zhang Ga is already considering sending troops to help the good brother.

So one or two months earlier, half a year later, the two sides will have a fight sooner or later!

Zhang Ga decided to go to the island early tomorrow morning!

……

"Our station reported that Garland and Erwinia have reached a number of investment agreements, including a high-standard, modern chicken farm.

"Today, the State of Garland has sent a delegation to visit and investigate in Ecuador..."

A piece of news in Chinese quickly spread internationally.

The news that North Africa will add another international airport spread like wildfire in Africa.

What is strange is that this news is only broadcast without subtitles.

But this does not prevent people from freely understanding it, and it has been translated into various languages ​​and reprinted by media from all continents and countries.

Bugacha Thorpe was sitting in the office, still holding the airport plan in his hand, just about to ask the secretary to send a copy to Zhang Ga.

But when he saw the news, his brows suddenly became a "Chuan".

Chapter 278 Worth Reflecting

"As soon as he refused, I snapped the gun out, so fast!

"Then the naval commander came up, one knelt down, one begged for mercy, and the other cried and pissed, I ignored them all!

"I said three sentences to him at that time, the first sentence, you have to give us the island.

"The second sentence, you give us the company.

"The third sentence, you have to recognize our concession, ah!

"Three sentences, I asked the general to give me a thumbs up."

On the pumice island, Brother Pingtou blew at the crow with his hips akimbo.

The crow glanced at him, and said speechlessly, "Can you die without bragging for a day?"

At this moment, the two are standing on the edge of the pier on Pumice Island, with the deep water port in front of them.

A dock and wharf have appeared in the deep water port.

A dreadnought-class cruiser, two sea scorpion destroyers, and five seal patrol boats lined up at the pier.

Zhang Ga was squatting not far away on a protruding rock, holding a Bingxi Luya pole, and was concentrating on reeling up the line.

Hearing the crow's voice, he turned his head and glanced, and said, "Crow, get ready and take up a post in the navy."

Immediately, he pointed to the pier in the distance and said, "Look, your Indian Ocean Fleet, isn't it awesome?"

"Yes, General." The crow had been prepared in his heart, and saluted immediately.

Look at the few ships on the pier. It is said to be the Indian Ocean Fleet. In terms of numbers, they are really a bit shabby.

However, just the Dreadnought-class guided missile cruiser, with a volume of 16000 tons, is already visually stunning and enough to support the facade!

There are four groups of 36 missile launch ports on the deck, and an extremely domineering electromagnetic gun in the center, which directly gives people a feeling of overwhelming combat effectiveness.

"there is a question!"

Crow pinched his chin and said, "We need a tugboat, otherwise the warships won't be able to enter and leave the port."

"It makes sense!" Zhang Ga also pinched his chin, "The problem is that we, a powerful nuclear power, actually have to rely on imports for this kind of low-level equipment..."

Brother Pingtou also pinched his chin, nodded and said: "It seems that we need to reflect."

……

On the pumice island, when the three of them were reflecting, another emergency meeting was held in the Suosili General Mansion.

For the airport project in Irvinia, of course.

How far is Irvinia from Sossiri?

Only one country away, Djibouti.

How big is Djibouti?

2.3 square kilometers.

Simply speaking of area, it may be difficult to have an accurate concept.

In other words, Djibouti's longest span is 180 kilometers from north to south, and 160 kilometers from east to west.

It only takes 150 kilometers to cross Djibouti from Ervinia to Sossilia.

If a highway is built here, according to domestic toll standards, the toll will only cost 68 yuan.

Such a short distance means that if Garland invests in an airport in Ervinia, there is no need to invest in a second airport in Sossili.

At least there is no need to spend a lot of money on investment.

The atmosphere in the conference room was gloomy, not only because the airport project might die, but also because everyone lost a channel to make money.

There is another reason. After McKenney left the concession area of ​​Port Meka last night, he excused himself from feeling unwell and went back to the island instead of attending today's meeting.

In his place was a balding middle-aged man who was also a member of the McKenney family.

Engbakoto sat in the lower position. Seeing that everyone was silent, he tried to propose: "Our side, do you want to lower the price?"

In fact, even if the airport project is launched and successfully defrauded Zhang Ga of 25 billion US dollars, Engelbakoto will not be able to share much.

Give some hard work at most.

But the question he is raising right now is something everyone must think about seriously.

……

When Zhang Ga returned to the base in the central city of Garland, he received an email from Suosili.

However, he only glanced at the title, saw the word "airport", and deleted the email directly.

Afterwards, he notified the group of elders to ask Hassan, the diplomatic elder, to send someone to make official contact with Sosili, so as to implement the terms of the Meka Port Concession as soon as possible.

The previous concession agreement was signed between Thorpe and Zhang Ga personally.

Now Zhang Ga wants to turn it into a formal international treaty.

Including the settlement of Pumice Island.

And let the diplomats clearly inform the other party to talk about these two things first, and then talk about the airport project!

Old Hassan was sitting in his office in Garland City, wearing a pair of reading glasses, and was drawing up a basic charter.

The original government office has been abandoned.

Because the decoration does not meet the requirements, it is too luxurious.

Zhang Ga's requirement for the decoration of the office area of ​​​​civil servants is that it can only be decorated in a simple way, and no more than three decorations are allowed.

So old Hassan's office was a white-scraped, tiled room with a square desk inside.

The official in charge of the visit this time is old Hassan's subordinate and also a young diplomat from the previous administration.

After Old Hassan's charter was drawn up, he handed it over to the young diplomat and said, "Go."

A young diplomat named Said took the handwritten charter and read it quickly.

Immediately, he said nervously, "Elder Hassan, shall I go alone?"

"When you arrive at Port Meka, talk there. We have our own territory, so don't lose your prestige." Hassan said with a smile on his face.

Said nodded, but asked again: "What if the other party doesn't come to negotiate?"

"Then you stay in Port Meka temporarily, it's fine."

"Yes, Elder Hassan!"

……

After Zhang Ga deleted the email from Suoxili, he did not close the webpage.

Instead, he found a few recipients of his own purchase list and sent them out at the same time.

The list is a batch of equipment, both military and special equipment, as well as some civilian machinery.

Including the tugboats and amphibious landing ships needed on Pumice Island, as well as the ship-borne anti-submarine and anti-ship helicopters on the Sea Scorpion destroyer, as well as minelayers, minesweepers, supply ships, medical ships, and the like.

Various support vehicles of the Army.

Special equipment includes fire trucks, ambulances and the like.

There are a lot more for civilian use, a lot, Zhang Ga filled in everything that Zhang Ga could think of, and left a large blank for suppliers to recommend themselves.

Although the system and the base have powerful functions and the equipment produced is very useful, the types are limited after all.

A lot of basic equipment, Zhang Ga's system is still blank, and there are too many places that need to make up lessons.

After sending the email, Brother Pingtou came in to report that the Minister of Labor, Hadidi, was waiting outside with an executive elder.

Zhang Ga went to the living room outside to meet Hadidi.

I hadn't seen him for more than a month, and Elder Hadidi's skin, which was not too fair, looked even darker and rougher.

After meeting, Hadidi saluted and sat down on the sofa.

Hadidi said: "Master Chief, we have been coordinating the production team in Central City for the past few days. I heard that you are here and just have a few things to report, so I came here."

"Tell me something, I just have something to talk to you about."

Zhang Ga asked Brother Pingtou to pour tea for the two, and retrieved the data from the Ministry of Labor on the tablet and put it on the table.

Hadidi nodded towards the young executive elder.

"It's like this..." The executive elder bowed on the sofa and said, "During the recent scheduling work, we found that the form of the production team, a labor collective, is already a bit backward and is hindering the development of labor. reform!"

Chapter 279 Susili's Little Action

In order to share the work pressure of the elders, Zhang Ga set up three positions of executive elders under the elders.

In terms of status, it is second only to the existence of the elders.

It is equivalent to the six ministers in ancient times.

Moreover, the allocation of these three positions is usually such that one is selected from the former officers, one is selected from the veterans, and the other is selected from the relevant departments of the former government.

The reason for assigning a person from the relevant department of the original government is because these people have relevant work experience.

The orderliness, professionalism, and height of cognition in handling related affairs are often higher than those of Zhang Ga's gang of old hats.

In the later actual work, this has been proved many times.

The executive elder who spoke in front of him is a retired military officer. He studied and accepted quickly in the Ministry of Labor, and was very recognized by Hadidi.

Zhang Ga heard him say that the form of the production team is outdated, so he smiled and said: "Please tell me specifically, what are the problems and how should they be solved?"

The executive elder said: "At present, our skill training class in Friendship Town has reached the fourth phase, and there are already many professional skilled personnel.
