Chapter 294 Mercenary Neem Acquisition
The development of Jiahe can bring a large amount of food to the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
So, from the perspective of stable rule, the Kabila government does not have enough reasons to embarrass Jiahe.
After all, this is only the first year of his first official term. According to the relevant system, he can legally be re-elected for one term.
With Kabila’s prestige in the military, this is not difficult to achieve.
The two terms add up to 10 years.
If you want to make money, you can wait a little longer.
This time Yu Honghai received an environmental fine of US$1 million. The reason was that Jiahe's seedling tissue culture factory cut down a large number of trees, which affected the ecological environment.
Guo Yang looked up at the bright and cold moon and became calmer. Violence was only the final solution.
“Is it the deputy leader Mumba again?”
"Yes, I found out clearly that he is a relative of Mumba." Yu Honghai said solemnly: "Mumba used his power to stuff his relatives and friends into the civil service system." Arranged to enter the police station?" Guo Yang said coldly.
"Indeed, Mumba is a little crazy in order to make a lot of money." Yu Honghai was obviously stunned and said: "A few days ago, I have already found Atul Guira, Kabila is currently in Luben Bashi wants to take action against the eastern mining areas, but promises to withdraw the relevant fines. "
Congo relies heavily on mining for its financial revenue, but there are rebel governments supported by Uganda, Rwanda, and Burundi in the border mining areas. Armed.
For the Kabila government, it is a long-term struggle to fully control the mineral resources in the eastern mining areas.
Under such circumstances, the Kabila government also hopes for stability on the rear.
Jiahe will not only provide food for trade, but will also develop land within the territory to produce food. Its importance to the Kabila government is self-evident.
Moomba also wanted to disrupt the rule of Kabila's government by allowing his relatives to make money.
Environmental fines are just the first card played.
Even if the Kabila government resolves this issue, there will be countless others in the future, and the troubles that occur every three days will greatly affect the progress of the project in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
This environmental fine was issued. According to the efficiency of the Congolese government, the tissue culture factory will be delayed for at least half a month.
Yu Honghai said: "How about letting Matadi go first? Go to Mbandaka first, with the help of Chief Eddie, it will be much better there."
"No, Ma The port in Tadi is very important." Guo Yang thought for a while and said: "Let's do the land part first, wait for news from the Kabila government."
Congo's business environment is really a headache. Everything is slow, and many Chinese-funded companies and personnel have become targets of local illegal armed forces.
But it is not that there are no successful companies in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
As a qualified leek from Burma A, Guo Yang knew that many domestic mining companies had succeeded in gold mining in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
For example, China Molybdenum has repeatedly purchased copper and cobalt mines at the lowest prices in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and has successfully developed them and made huge profits.
China Molybdenum is not well-known in China, but it is one of the most famous mining companies in the world in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
But the mining areas are more chaotic. The ability of mining companies such as China Molybdenum to gain a foothold is somewhat related to violence.
For example, Da Mao's Wagner mercenaries were hired by a Chinese-funded company to rescue more than 20 employees and protect property.
After thinking about it, Guo Yang believed that he still needed to have a reliable violent organization on hand. Mumba was always a hidden danger, and interference from other forces was also a potential threat.
On the surface, security organizations are responsible for protecting employees and property, but they are also indispensable for performing dirty work secretly.
On the African continent, many mercenary organizations are active. France, Belgium, the United States and other countries once had a large number of mercenaries in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
In the 1960s and 1970s, two 'mercenary wars' took place in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
It was not cleared out of the country until the Mobutu period, but it is still active in neighboring countries such as Uganda. Mining companies in Belgium and other countries still have a strong influence in the Great Lakes region.
He communicated with Yu Honghai for a while, emphasizing on cultivating, supporting and winning over his own people in the military and political system of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
He also secretly and openly asked Fengkai Agricultural Machinery to build factories in neighboring countries to produce agricultural machinery or basic weapons. .
After coming back to his senses, Guo Yang looked at Luo Xiu again, "Qianlong Security Company, besides private bodyguard training, does it have any other business?"
Luo Xiu still didn't have any business tonight. Drinking wine, he said: "Currently there is only security training and services."
Qianlong Security Company, Luo Xiu trained there for more than half a year after retiring, and was then recommended to Jiahe.
After returning to China, Luo Xiu followed Guo Yang's instructions and placed another security order with Qianlong Security Company.
Guo Yang asked: "It's gone?"
"It's gone." Luo Xiu asked: "What other services does the boss want? Qianlong's boss Chen said he would provide it with all his strength. "
Guo Yang looked around and said softly: "Are there any mercenaries?"
Luo Xiu was dumbfounded, "There is no relevant organization in the country, this is illegal."< br>
"What about abroad?"
"Unless it's not breaking the law, it's just for security, or you don't want to return to the country, there are great risks in returning to the country." Luo Xiu introduced.
Guo Yang is not sure whether there were any Chinese mercenaries outside during this period, but there were some in later generations.
Whether it is summer workers recruited in Syria or Iraq, the French Foreign Legion, northern Myanmar, or Russia and Ukraine, there are sporadic Chinese people there.
So, Guo Yang thinks this can be done.
There are always people who are trapped by money or simply seeking excitement, who are willing to take this path.
As for domestic private security companies abroad, most of them cannot even own guns stably, and have to rely on hiring outsourcing companies to use them legally.
Moreover, security and mercenaries are completely different concepts.
Spanish Foreign Legion, French Foreign Legion, Ancient Cossack Mercenaries, Nepalese Gurkha Troops, Israeli IZO Mercenary Company, Blackwater, and Wagner.
These are some of the most ferocious foreign mercenary groups and companies in the world today.
It provides the world's major private bodyguard, military training, military consultant, spy dispatch, assassination behind enemy lines and other services.
In Africa, the EO company from South Africa should not be underestimated. The civil strife in Rwanda and the anti-government armed group UNITA in Angola were all solved by EO company.
Both actions allowed EO Company to easily earn tens of millions of dollars, as well as mining rights to diamonds and other minerals.
Due to political reasons, Jiahe definitely can't do it in a big way, but a small elite force is definitely possible.
Withdrawing his thoughts, Guo Yang said: "Make an appointment with Mr. Chen from Qianlong to meet and talk."
Luo Xiu knew that his boss had other ideas, so he said, "How about we make an appointment in Altay? Mr. Chen happens to like fishing too."
"Okay."
A cold wind blew.
"There may still be snow in Altay, and the lake may not have thawed." Guo Yang suddenly remembered and said: "It will be around May, let's check his tone by the way."
"Not interested. Just disappeared.”
The domestic security industry has already taken off, and I believe many people are already eyeing foreign markets.
——
In the early 1960s, a book was published abroad called "Silent Spring".
The book describes the terrible ecological consequences of the extensive use of chemical pesticides. The insects are all dead and the birds are gone. Although spring with brilliant mountain flowers has arrived, nature is silent. Not angry.
This book became very popular in the West and caused quite a shock in all walks of life. Subsequently, the development of biopesticides entered the fast lane.
Kenya’s pyrethrum industry also began to rise rapidly after that, once occupying 89% of the world’s market share.
After the reform and opening up, my country has quickly become a major user of chemical synthetic pesticides.
The grains, vegetables, fruits, tea, cooking oil and other foods we usually eat already contain varying degrees of pesticide residues;
The environment around us, such as soil, rivers and groundwater, has been polluted , at the same time, the resistance of farmland pests to pesticides continues to increase, and a large number of natural enemies have been eliminated.
Therefore, the current agricultural industry has to increase the dosage of pesticides, or develop and use new pesticides with more toxicity to "take away food from insects".
Reports on chemical pesticide pollution are common in various media.
For example, the smoke and sewage discharged by chemical pesticide factories poison the surrounding environment, causing fish and shrimp downstream to disappear, and villagers often suffer from strange diseases.
A considerable part of the fresh green vegetables on the winter markets in northern big cities are obtained using toxic pesticides in greenhouses.
Some local vegetable farmers grow two types of vegetables with different treatments. One type does not use chemical pesticides and fertilizers and is only kept for your own consumption; the other type uses chemical pesticides and fertilizers and is sold to the public in the market. This is no secret.
In fact, as early as the 1990s, many domestic scientific research institutions used their own laboratories to test edible oils, vegetables, rice and other agricultural products, and found residues of pesticides such as DDT.
Currently, Chinese citizens have lingering fears when buying vegetables every day.
Tea is a traditional beverage in my country, but it can be seen from the inspection reports of the quality inspection department that the vast majority of tea leaves have excessive chemical pesticide residues.
Because the amount of pesticide residues in tea exceeds the prescribed standard by dozens of times, the EU bans the import of Chinese tea.
Since May 2006, island countries have also introduced a positive list system for food pesticide residues. my country's agricultural exports face extremely high technical trade barriers.
Every year, a large number of people are poisoned by pesticides or commit suicide by drinking pesticides.
In short, the poisoning of chemical pesticides has become the issue of greatest concern to the whole society.
Domestic scientists have also begun to explore the use of biopesticides to solve this problem.
Pyrethrum and neem, these two miracle crops began to be gradually introduced.
Neem is widely used in India.
Thousands of people use neem leaves, bark, fruit and oil to heal wounds and treat illnesses.
Brush your teeth with branches and leaves to maintain oral hygiene and prevent tooth decay. It is said that most Indians have good dental conditions. This is related to brushing their teeth with neem branches.
Women use neem oil for contraceptive purposes, and the neem tree is also known as the "country pharmacy".
In agriculture, farmers in many places use branches, leaves, and neem cakes to control agricultural pests. For example, neem seed cakes are used in rice and sugarcane fields to prevent dry pests and termites.
Farmers in some provinces also use neem branches to lay directly on rice seedling beds, which can effectively control early rice insect pests. At the same time, the seedlings have developed root systems and strong growth.
In the wardrobe, use neem leaves and branches to prevent borers. In addition, put them in the granary to prevent grain pests.
The properties of the neem tree are very magical. The biopesticides developed using it are environmentally friendly and have no toxic residues.
Like pyrethrum, neem tree has also attracted the attention of many developed countries.
In 1996, Kunming Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences introduced pyrethrum from Kenya and planted it in Yuxi, Qujing, Honghe and other places.
At the same time, neem trees also entered my country, also mainly in Yunnan and the Panxi area in southern Sichuan.
During the initial inspection, Professor Yang Qingyuan believed that the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau has clean air, pollution-free soil precipitation, abundant sunshine, and simple folk customs, making it an ideal area for the development of plant-based biopesticides.
Now it seems that the conclusion of the investigation is still very accurate, and the folk customs are indeed very simple.
As a result, several companies paid tens of millions of yuan for two consecutive years during the purchase of raw materials, and farmers began to cause trouble and rebel.
Although he was beaten, he felt that he should be beaten. Anyway, he was not the one who was beaten.
In the past two years, the planting area of pyrethrum in Honghe Luxi reached 60,000 acres, and the annual income of farmers was 25 million yuan.
However, due to the lag in market development of Honghe Senju Company and the blindness in growing raw materials, there has been a large backlog of pyrethrum raw materials.
The company paid me nothing for two consecutive years.
In addition to the Senju Company in Honghe, the Yuxi Subcritical Plant Company has also fallen into a trough.
The two companies joined forces to deal a fatal blow to local farmers, and they have not been able to recover for several years.
Chrysanthemum farmers have been reluctant to plant chrysanthemums due to the influence of "white strips".
Yunnan's pyrethrum industry has been severely hampered.
The two companies are also worried!
Benefiting from the increasing demand for pyrethrin technical materials in the international pyrethrum market, both companies have gradually opened up markets in developed countries such as Switzerland, Europe, and the Americas.
But the farmers refused to plant chrysanthemums!
Without raw materials and no way to pay the 'Iu Tiao' they owe, both Senju and Subcritical Plants seem to be stuck in an endless loop.
At this time, someone found Professor Yang Qingyuan through connections and was interested in taking over Senju and Subcritical.
Hey, he had to be the middleman.
On a flat piece of land on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, a confident Yu Qin turned around and left.
"Since we can't talk about it, let's not talk about it. Quan Wang can also build a base and factory from scratch, and compete simultaneously in the future."
Yang Qingyuan's eyes kept signaling, Subcritical's boss Lu Caiying was still hesitating and considering.
The atmosphere was a little depressing, and Yu Qin was about to get in the car.
“Alas!” Lu Cai Yingcai sighed, “That’s it, Mr. Yu, Subcritical agrees to Quan Wang’s biological conditions.”
Yu Qin, who had already opened the car door, couldn’t hold back his lips. The smile turned back again.
"It's a pleasure to cooperate, Mr. Lu."
"From now on, I will leave subcriticality to you." Lu Caiying stretched out his hand and shook his hand. People in this industry are like thunder.
With a big backer like Jiahe behind him, he was already short of money, and if another company came in to compete, it would only be more uncomfortable.
It is better to sell it at a good price.
Yu Qin said with a smile: "Since Quan Wang is here, he must want to make this industry bigger and stronger."
Not only the acquisition of Subcritical, Quan Wang Biotech also has an interest in Senju Company Completed mergers and acquisitions and reorganization and obtained controlling stake.
Then we rushed to Panzhihua and visited a neem tree planting company.
The efficiency is very fast.
Because Yu Qin plans to let farmers sow pyrethrum seeds this year.
In addition, the biopesticide developed by Quan Wang with stemenin will also officially enter the market this year. Market verification effect
Acquiring three small companies naturally had to cut through the mess quickly.
The only pity is that there are no pyrethrum seeds cultivated by Tianhe, and the yield and active ingredient content are far from international standards.
When Guo Yang, who was far away in Qinghe County, received the news, he couldn't help but smile knowingly.
The sophora ferula grown in the Asafoetida Gobi will also be used in the Asafoetida Gobi land.
