Chapter 346 Affiliated to Mo Country
Wang Yi's Liu Zuo vest is only one of the instructors of Umbrella's security, so it is impossible for him to let many people come to pick him up and make a big scene.
Cheng Xue also arrived at the scene.
During this time, Cheng Xue was responsible for receiving various instruments and equipment, escorting the factory, and staying in Mexico for a long time.
Countless spies from all walks of life were killed, and there were also many CIA agents who did not reveal their identities.
However, some news that could be put back, they turned a blind eye and turned a blind eye to let them escape with 'hard work'.
This time, she drove a Hummer directly to the airport. After Wang Yi got into the car, she chewed gum while driving and complained.
"Boss, I want to raise my salary. I'm too tired. I don't have to stop 24 hours a day."
Cheng Xue was abducted from Xiangjiang in the first place, and has entangled Li Hao and his wife for a long time.
Wang Yi also promised to give him a salary, which he naturally fulfilled.
But now Cheng Xue has saved a small sum of money and doesn't even have time to spend it.
"Come on, there are more and more companions now, and I'm also working hard to recruit new employees."
"That's right, one more companion means twice as much work."
Cheng Xue teased, but she just talked about it, the boss of the necromancer's subordinates, the salary is the boss's kindness, and they can be reborn in another way. It is also a disguised enjoyment for substantial work.
With Cheng Xue kicking the accelerator, the Hummer galloped arrogantly on the streets of Mexico City, and the roaring engine made people avoid it from a distance.
The logo of Umbrella on the car, here is the best pass...
...
The country of Mexico is the 'third most powerful country' in North America after Damei and Maple Leaf.
In 1821, Mexico overthrew the rule of the colonists. At that time, it had a land area of 4.7 million square kilometers.
However, under Damei's invasion and encroachment, there are only 1.96 million square kilometers of land left.
After World War II, Mexico has experienced 6% economic growth for forty years, known as the Latin American economic miracle.
Mexico hosted the Olympic Games in 1968, and a large oil field was discovered in 1972, which coincided with the fourth Middle East war in the following year. Oil prices soared, and Mexico made a lot of money, and its per capita income entered the ranks of moderately developed countries. Economic miracle.
And the vigorous development of the Mexican country naturally makes the beautiful neighbors next door smell business opportunities. Once a certain place is rich and has money in its pocket, it is easy to breed mold, and the Mexican country thinks that the price of oil can go up forever. Later, he believed in Damei's evil spirit and raised a large amount of debt for development, and he still borrowed from Damei, with an extremely high annual interest rate.
However, with the end of the Middle East War, oil prices plummeted, and coincided with the 1985 Mexico earthquake, which made it difficult to borrow new debts and repay the old ones by raising the interest rate of U.S. debt, which caused the Mexican economy to collapse instantly under multiple attacks.
Damei's dunning of debts, coupled with the flickering of Damei's economists and some leading parties inside, led Mexico to adopt the famous "shock therapy" and shut down more than 600 state-owned enterprises including railways, aviation, telecommunications, banks, steel, etc. All the large state-owned enterprises were sold at a low price and bought by Damei and capitalists from other western countries. The industries related to the national economy and people's livelihood in Mexico were controlled by foreign capital. Damei achieved its goal of economic aggression without dispatching a single soldier. .
Even at this point, Damei still felt that it was not enough, and found that life in Mexico had become worse, and after everything was controlled by Damei, she continued to sign the "North American Free Trade Agreement" foolishly.
Privatization, trade liberalization, deregulation of import and export, familiar recipes that are no longer familiar, and even minor revisions to the script, they were copied directly and all won the bid.
Originally, Mexico thought that after signing this agreement, it would be taken away by the beauty and return to the ranks of developed countries.
However, what they got in exchange was the dumping of beautiful and ultra-low-priced corn, which instantly crushed all the farmers in the country of Mexico, and then exchanged for low-priced bargain-hunting purchases.
It is actually a good thing if the price of staple food can be kept low, but how can capital do charity?
As soon as the competitors were finished, the partnership pulled the price back immediately after the monopoly was formed, and even started to intensify the intake.
Food is a necessity of life, and it involves the issue of survival. There is no other way but to watch it being squeezed dry.
In addition to food, there is water. The water crisis in Mexico is getting worse, first of all, due to natural factors such as uneven distribution of water resources and abnormal climate.
Mexico's arid or semi-arid areas account for about 2/3 of the country's land area, while nearly 77% of the country's population and industrial and agricultural activities are concentrated in areas with only 31% of fresh water resources.
The lack of water resources in Mexico has inherent factors. It is a place with water shortage, but after the water resources are controlled by foreign capital, it is undoubtedly worse!
Many multinational water companies did invest a lot of money in the construction of a large number of water supply pipelines when they got the contract. Treated sewage seeps into underground aquifers, causing permanent pollution.
In Puebla, Mexico, more than 100% of the groundwater has been developed, the pollution has increased, the groundwater level has dropped, and the city has a tendency to sink. In times of drought, it is necessary to rely on water trucks to transport yellow water to ensure survival.
(Note: In the early 21st century, there was an anti-water related movement in Latin America, and most of the ownership of surface water resources was bought back, but a lot of groundwater was polluted, and the available private wells were still controlled by some beverage companies and capitalists. In fact, it failed to change the current situation of water shortage. Due to the needs of the plot, the surface water affairs have not been returned yet, don’t be ridiculous.)
Areas rich in resources are fine, but in areas where water resources are scarce, or in highly urbanized areas like Mexico City, the price of water soars instantly, and bottled water exceeds the price of gasoline. Although tap water is much cheaper, tap water in Mexico or most parts of Latin America It is not drinkable even if it is boiled, they have to buy bottled water.
The price of this bottled water is about one-third of the bottled water.
According to a report by the Mexican state media a few years ago, the total annual water demand in Mexico is about 78.4 billion cubic meters. Due to the insufficient supply of surface water, the annual water gap reaches 11.5 billion cubic meters. Many areas have to exploit groundwater to fill the gap.
Due to a large amount of groundwater being secretly drained by water companies and causing permanent pollution, most of the remaining private wells that can be used today are in the hands of some beverage factories and capital.
Coupled with her own love for sweets, this led to a large number of people in Mexico drinking Coke as water, becoming the country with the highest incidence of diabetes in the world, and then Damei sold medicine to this group of patients.
It's easy to handle if you don't have enough money, and the border of Piaomo has the highest density of blood stations in the world...
There is no resistance!
This is the current situation in Mexico.
But also because of the tragedy and bloody examples in Latin America, some big countries in the East have learned lessons and learned experiences.
It can be said that the Latin American phenomenon has the same vigilant effect as the Gulf War to some extent!
It is also because of this that there is a business of contraband in the country of Mexico. To a certain extent, this is another way of revenge against Damei.
And now in Mexico, there are also a large number of beautiful spokespersons, and even the CIA's business here is quite booming.
Anyway, after the CIA's activities intensified here, there are more and more contraband, and I don't know what it has to do with it...
Some time ago, Umbrella here also cooperated with the CIA in some operations, but since the Yemen incident, the two sides have become deadlocked.
It is relatively restrained to shoot black guns on the dark side.
Currently, Umbrella has reached an unwritten agreement with the major forces in Mexico and Pakistan.
That is, Umbrella is responsible for driving away Western capital and replacing it with them, ensuring the most basic livelihood of the people while earning profits!
It's just that Umbrella's expansion speed has been too fast, and there are not enough manpower, or reliable manpower, so it is not suitable for this kind of operation right away.
In addition, after the Yemen incident, she started to have a stalemate with Damei. At that time, she had to deal with other issues, but now she is free.
And now it is necessary to free up.
Because with the continuation of time, orders from shipyards have also begun to be delivered one after another, and the ready-made goods that have been transformed by the Norwegian ship king have also traveled to the Asian seas by tugboats.
When the offshore platform is about to be established, it is still necessary to achieve a greater degree of control over Mexico and Pakistan.
Because offshore platforms on the high seas are to some extent subject to the legal jurisdiction of the registered party.
When Umbrella is not ready to directly challenge the international order, he will try his best to comply with some rules.
In fact, Wang Yi had originally considered the Knights of Malta, an institution with a national nature.
But after all, it still belongs to the sphere of influence of Europe, and after several attempts to contact it, there has been no progress for the time being.
Therefore, I can only choose to register in Mexico as the next best thing...
Because of this, before the sea city is completed, the internal environment of Mexico must be cleaned up.
At present, the capital influence of Western capital in Mexico can be said to have penetrated into all walks of life, from mining, oil, finance, agriculture, water affairs, to the secret arms smuggling, almost completely inseparable.
At the same time, Mexico is also one of the main sources of illegal immigrants in Damei.
Damei’s illegal immigrants can reduce some of Damei’s own labor costs to a certain extent, and they don’t need to pay any welfare costs, so although Damei has been clamoring to solve the illegal immigration problem, it is for votes.
In fact, it can be regarded as turning a blind eye...
