Chapter 747: Hot Sand Group
Lin Yu brought his men back from Myanmar. Not to mention accepting the career of Chaiba and others, Lin Yu didn't even see the team of Chaiba. The Kokang government did not dare to keep them at all, nor would it hand over the army to Lin Yu.
Things are always more complicated than Lin Yu imagined. Politics is politics. If Lin Yu is not a Chinese, maybe there is still some talk. Once he has a political identity, everything will become complicated.
Although he was a little disappointed, he still took the baby back. Considering that no one was taking care of Lin Yu, he wanted to put the baby in the hospital, and Ai Fukuhara and a group of nurses were taken care of. But Ruyan wanted to take it personally, Lin Yu had to give up.
Three days later, Pakistan
Lin Yu and Lemon met in Pakistan. When Lin Yu proposed to create a mercenary company, Lemon agreed. In China, the government would not allow the existence of mercenary companies, so Lin Yu chose the location of the mercenary company in Pakistan. First, Lemon and the Pakistani government have a good relationship and are the government's secret arms dealer. Secondly, Pakistan needs many mercenaries to suppress terrorists and reactionary forces. This creates conditions for the company to take shape.
There are not many large-scale mercenary companies in the world. The one who goes out the most is the Blackwater Company in the United States. This company benefits more than one billion US dollars every year. Now, many places around the world are not peaceful, and the government is not convenient to take action directly, so mercenaries have a place to use their skills. During the Iraq War, the United States hired tens of thousands of mercenaries, which played a huge role in the war.
Lin Yu did this not a temporary hothead. He thought about the others. Although he seems to be a member of the Chinese government now, the more secrets Lin Yu knows, the more he becomes dangerous, and his freedom will be controlled. As the saying goes, "There is a cunning rabbit and the lackeys are cooked, and no one knows what will happen in the future."
Lin Yu held the golden ocean in his hand, which made the Chinese government very afraid, but the golden ocean was not Lin Yu's after all. He was just a manager. These people followed Lemon wholeheartedly. They were from the Middle East and could not do things for the Chinese, so Lin Yu wanted to cultivate his own strength.
The strength of K2 and the huge parliament made Lin Yu feel deeply uneasy.
Whether in terms of the market or its own needs, Lin Yu must have his own strength. If an army is built openly, no government can tolerate it, so a mercenary company is the best choice.
The political situation in the Middle East is complex and turbulent, with extremist organizations such as the Taliban and al-Qaeda everywhere, and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is still the same. This is a breeding ground for global terrorism, so there is no need to worry about not being able to recruit outstanding soldiers. Moreover, Lin Yu also wants to slowly weaken the power of the golden ocean and let them gradually transform into their own use.
The reason why Lemon supported Lin Yu's decision was entirely for his own interests. The arms trade needed escort, and he had a force invisibly shocked his opponents. Moreover, a series of measures after Lin Yu came to power made him make a lot of money. Under Lin Yu's lobbying, they could also video call with Raven once a month, and Raven also affirmed Lin Yu's work. Both public and private Lemon were willing to cooperate with Lin Yu.
Lin Yu is now a member of the Chinese government. With this relationship, Lemeng followed Lin Yu long, for fear of offending the money tree.
The two hit it off, Lemon was responsible for the venue and funds, and Lin Yu was responsible for the training and management.
After making up the idea, the two of them started doing their own things.
Lemon only took one day to negotiate with Pakistan. Pakistan was willing to provide venues and shelter, but the premise was that they had to pay 5% of the company's income, and they also had to enjoy a 50% discount. Lin Yu agreed, borrowing chickens and laying eggs, it was impossible to borrow them for nothing.
He did it right away, and Lemon immediately started to invest in the construction of the site. The company was registered in Pakistan and was called Hot Sand Group.
Lin Yu thought Lao Du would be angry, but Lao Du didn't even ask. They might have their concerns, and Lin Yu was too lazy to guess.
London
Christie's auction house is crowded. As the most influential auction house in the world, the auction price of Christie's is the market trend. Rich businessmen, local tyrants, government personnel, and warlords are everywhere here. Christie's auction only follows one principle, and the higher the price will be.
At this moment, an item appeared on the big screen. It was like it was more than 20 centimeters long, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. It was like a court sign used by ancient Chinese to attend court. It was white and yellow in the middle, and it was engraved with inscriptions on it. It was obviously a Chinese cultural relic.
"This is a jade gui from the Western Zhou Dynasty, and the material is..." It began to be introduced at the auction house.
The ancient jade of the Western Zhou Dynasty has always been valuable internationally. The jade gui is engraved with some strange patterns, and the people sitting in the front row can't help but pick up the magnifying glass.
"The starting price is 100,000 pounds." The auctioneer offered a low price. Recently, China's ancient jade and porcelain in the international market have always been the darling of the antique industry. The auctioneer said that this jade gui should have been used by a minister of the Zhou Dynasty to court, and the low price of 100,000 is not expensive at all.
"One million!"
"One and two million."
"Two million."
Real experts usually buy at the bottom of the game, and these people are really experts.
"Eight million, is there any higher?"
Eight million pounds, that's eighty million pounds. This price is not cheap.
“Eight million times.”
"Ten million!"
An old man sitting in the back row raised the sign. The man had silver hair and sunglasses, and couldn't see his appearance clearly.
If you add two million at a time, this person wants to win it in one go.
"Twenty million!"
A sky-high price explosion made everyone look at a middle-aged man in the corner of the front row. He looked like an oriental man, tall and burly, and expressionless.
"Thirty million!"
Thirty million is 300 million, and this price has exceeded Yugui's real price.
"One hundred million!"
The middle-aged man directly increased his investment for 100 million yuan. He did not look back, nor did he expression, and was still so cold. Now everyone wondered, is this man fighting against the old man? This Yugui is not worth the price at all.
Just when everyone thought the old man would give up, he raised the sign again.
"Three hundred million!"
Three hundred million, a sky-high price, everyone was dumbfounded. These two people were so crazy. This is not how they spent money.
"Five million!" The middle-aged man seemed determined to win.
The old man couldn't help but smile.
"Are there any higher ones in five hundred million? Five hundred million at a time!"
"Five hundred million times!"
"Five hundred million times!"
"make a deal!"
The auctioneer dropped the hammer, the middle-aged man stood up and left silently, while the old man turned around and left without saying a word.
The middle-aged man got into the car and left as fast as possible. Similarly, the old man couldn't help but reveal a strange sneer when he looked at the middle-aged man's back.
"Call Marceau and ask him to target that person."
"yes."
At this moment, Sean was sitting in front of the TV, his eyes fixed on the auction items on the TV, and his whole body froze.
