Chapter 1153: Long-Term Vision
What is there in Somalia? This question really stumped Gao Yang.
What is there in Somalia? In Gao Yang's impression, there are wars, poverty, hunger, chaos, as well as the most famous pirates now, and the Somali Al-Shabaab, which has been making big noises recently. As for the places where he can make money, he can't think of it anyway. .
Morgan also looked like he was thinking hard. Gao Yang felt that he couldn't think of a place where he could make money. Maybe Morgan could think of it, so he didn't dare to speak for fear of disturbing Morgan.
After a while, Morgan finally coughed lightly at Gao Yang, and then said in a deep voice: "Did you think of anything?"
Gao Yang was stunned for a moment and said, "I thought you would think of some profitable business in Somalia."
Morgan frowned and waved his hand: "I can't think of how you can make money in that kind of ghost place. You know more about Somalia, so I thought you might be able to find business opportunities that can make money."
Gao Yang smiled bitterly and said, "Sorry, I disappoint you."
Morgan helplessly spread his hands and said: "That's it. Somalia, all I can think of is the golden waterway, but we can't interfere with this, unless you plan to be a pirate, and there is no oil, no minerals, nothing in Somalia. Okay. Well, even if there is, the environment in Somalia is simply not suitable for mining, and I really can’t think of anything where people can make money in Somalia.”
Gao Yang smiled bitterly and said: "There are bananas in Somalia, and the bananas in Somalia are really delicious."
Morgan laughed and said loudly: "Then how about you go to Somalia to fight and grab all the bananas?"
Morgan's joke wasn't funny, so neither man laughed. Instead, the big eyes stared at the small eyes with a sad face. After a while. Gao Yang finally couldn't help but asked: "Is it possible that in such a suitable place for a base, there can't be any way to make money?"
Morgan sighed and said: "Yes, control Somalia, carry out infrastructure construction, build a port and control it, guard the golden waterway, and you won't have to worry about making money."
Gao Yang said helplessly: "You are joking again."
Morgan sighed: "It would be great if we were still in the Cold War period when the United States and the Soviet Union were competing for hegemony. If you could control Somalia, someone would naturally give you money. Unfortunately, the Cold War has ended long ago."
Gao Yang hesitated for a moment, and then said cautiously: "How about we check online to see if there is anything valuable in Somalia, and then use this as a condition to help the Skeleton Gang fight?"
Before he finished speaking, Gao Yang overturned his idea and said helplessly: "No. Just think I didn't say it. Even if Somalia suddenly discovered the world's largest oil field, there would be no way to exploit it. At least ten years and eighty years." It won’t be mined within a year, and I don’t have enough financial resources to support it until then.”
Morgan frowned and said: "It's a pity that the United States is not interested in Somalia. After the Black Hawk Down incident, the United States completely gave up on Somalia. Otherwise, if it can help the United States completely control Somalia, I can help win American assistance, but now Obviously this is no longer possible.”
Gao Yang waved his hand and said: "Forget it, US aid is not easy to get. I can cooperate with you. If you cooperate with the US government, you don't know how you will die in the end."
Morgan waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "If the United States can't do it, look for China! The United States has a military base in Djibouti and is not very interested in controlling Somalia, but China is different. If it can have a foothold in Somalia and establish a military I think China should be interested in bases and other things, and it wouldn’t be too much to ask China to provide hundreds of millions of dollars in aid every year.”
Gao Yang glanced at Morgan and said helplessly: "Morgan, you are used to dealing with the government, so you have to have a higher vision. I would be happy to do this, but do you think it is possible?"
Morgan smiled bitterly and said: "Well, the possibility is very small. Well, it is better to give up the idea of doing business with big countries. This kind of thing that involves too much political significance really shouldn't be involved. Well, I don't have it at all. There’s a way.”
Gao Yang scratched his head and said, "What do you think?
Is there money to be made from fighting against Al-Shabaab in Somalia? "
Morgan shook his head and said: "The question is who will give the money? Kenya? Do they have the money to give it?"
Gao Yang was so worried that he pulled his hair and said helplessly: "You think there is no point in the existence of a country like Somalia. There is no place to make money at all, Fake!"
Morgan raised his hand again. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly clapped his hand and said loudly: "Yes!"
Gao Yang was startled, and then said happily: "Do you have an idea?"
Morgan nodded, then looked at Gao Yang with a mysterious face, and said in a deep voice: "Gao, think about it, with the current situation in the world, besides Somalia, is there any other country that can allow you to establish a base? "
Gao Yang shook his head and said: "No, only Somalia is the most suitable."
Morgan snapped his fingers, and then said confidently: "Yes, in the current world situation, there is indeed no place more suitable for you than Somalia. With this conclusion, it is easy to come to the answer, Somalia It’s a place you have to occupy, even if it doesn’t look like there’s any money to be made in Somalia right now, right?”
Gao Yang shrugged and said, "Morgan, you can make it simpler."
Morgan smiled slightly and said: "To put it simply, you can prepare to build a base in Somalia. Somalia will become your gold nugget."
Gao Yang spread his hands, indicating that he still didn't understand, but Morgan smiled enigmatically again and said: "Gao, if you want to build a big company, can it be established soon?"
Gao Yang shook his head and said: "Of course this is impossible. Even if Big Ivan appears and gives me the equipment, it will still take time. I think it is very fast to establish a company within one year."
Morgan smiled and said: "That's enough. You should negotiate with the people in Somalia now and start preparing to establish a base in Somalia. From the moment your company is established, you will have endless business."
Gao Yang frowned and said, "Where is the source of wealth?"
Morgan smiled and said: "From the biggest dealer in the world, I mean in the arms field. They are rich, very rich. Remember not to be too stingy with your quotation. Dare to quote a big number that you dare not think of. . Don’t worry, the sponsor will be happy to pay when the time comes.”
"Arms, the greatest asset? Are you talking about the Shah?"
Morgan laughed, stretched out his thumb at Gao Yang, and then said with a smile: "You can still eat two houses by then, just like the arms dealers did, man, quickly occupy a place in Somalia. Then put your Let’s set up a company. One year is a bit too long.”
Gao Yang frowned and said, "No, wait, what are you talking about? I still don't understand, what kind of business will there be with Shah?"
Morgan smiled and said: "It doesn't happen now, but that doesn't mean it won't happen in the future. When I say in the future, I mean within a short period of time."
Morgan has been selling things off. Gao Yang said helplessly: "Morgan, don't be like this. Can you tell me more happily?"
Morgan obviously enjoyed the feeling of showing off. He said slowly and leisurely: "How much territory does the Skeleton Gang occupy now? Where did they fight? Did Berbera occupy it?"
Gao Yang frowned and said: "I don't know. I haven't contacted the Skeleton Gang during this period. I think Berbera has not been captured yet. It is an important town occupied by Somaliland. The Skeleton version of the base camp is still Borsosa."
Morgan stretched out his hand towards Gao Yang and said in a deep voice: "Hurry up and help the Skeleton Gang to knock down Berbera. Then you occupy Berbera as your base. Berbera is very important because there is an airport. You occupy Berbera." , at least we don’t have to build our own airport runway.”
Gao Yang nodded and said: "Okay, I will follow your advice. I won't say anything now. I'm waiting for you to take the initiative to reveal the answer to the mystery."
Morgan smiled again and said: "Okay, now let me tell you, just because you set up a base in Somalia, it does not mean that the place where you make money must be in Somalia. The place where you really want to make money is on the other side of the Gulf, in Yemen!"
Gao Yang was stunned for a moment and said: "Yemen? Is there any place to make money in Yemen?"
Morgan said leisurely: "Have you heard of the Houthis armed forces?"
Gao Yang's eyes widened and he said: "Houthi armed forces? I've heard that although they are supported by Iran, the Houthi armed forces are still very poor. What profit can they make?"
Morgan shook his finger and said with a smile: "It's a big profit. The Houthis are supported by Iran. The situation in Yemen is very stable now, but just watch, it won't stay calm forever. Iran will let the Houthis mobilize." With the support of Iran, the Houthi armed forces can quickly make Yemen like Syria, and once the faction represented by the Houthi armed forces in Yemen gains power, who is the most anxious?"
Gao Yang suddenly realized and said: "Shah!"
Morgan snapped his fingers and said with a smile: "When the time comes, you first send people to help the Houthis. In a few days, you will be able to knock down Sana'a. It's best if you can collect money from the Iranians, even if you can't. It doesn’t matter if you get the money, wait until the Shah can’t sit still after being beaten, and then the Shah will have to take action. At that time, you can help the Shah fight the Houthi armed forces. Man, Shah, how do you start from the Shah? If you want to make money from me, you don’t need me to teach you, right?”
Gao Yang pointed at Morgan with an astonished look on his face, and nodded repeatedly. It was not difficult to make money from Shah, the villain that everyone loved.
Who is Morgan? He is one of the most well-informed people in the world. Even some high-ranking officials in the United States may not be better informed than him. What's more, a discerning person like Yemen knows that he is already in the crater of a volcano. Regarding the current situation, Morgan said that if there is chaos in Yemen, there will definitely be chaos.
Gao Yang didn't even ask Morgan whether the information was accurate. He just nodded repeatedly and immediately smiled at Morgan: "Yemen, although they are a bit poorer, do you think they have a collection of shotguns or anything like that in their presidential palace?"
Morgan smiled slightly and said: "Of course it must be there. Do you even need to ask? Man, I'm waiting for you to find me some good ones."
Gao Yang immediately poured the wine, and then, regardless of whether Morgan drank or not, he added a little to Morgan's glass and said with a smile: "Come on, I wish us both a good harvest, cheers."
Morgan picked up the wine glass and said in a deep voice: "Remember to be more prepared when the time comes. It would be best to empty out all the good stuff in the Presidential Palace. I have reserved the antique shotguns in it in advance. I don't mind that I have too many collections. , and please don’t spread the content of our conversation today, this news is exclusive, you know, cheers." (To be continued...)
