In the end, Xiao Yang still couldn't wait for Wang Dong's good news in Kutos, because on the fourth day after Qi Hongyi's return, Big Ivan called and asked him to help go to Libya.

"Deranga in the Baiergai region may need something, but it needs an interview, I don't have time to go over now, you can run for me." In the past six months, Big Ivan has been fighting with Western private arms groups, not to mention himself, even his subordinates will be immediately targeted and killed once they appear here.

"No problem, I'll be over tomorrow."

"Well, bring a few more people, I heard it's not safe over there right now."

The place where arms need to be traded privately will definitely not be peaceful, but Big Ivan specially explained, which means that the situation has changed again, he pays little attention to North Africa, and does not know what is happening, "There is movement over there?" ”

"Well, Derangar is probably going to break with the government."

Xiao Yang immediately knew that Libya, which had finally stabilized a little, was going to be in chaos again.

Deranga, a general in the Libyan army, who controls the oil fields of the entire eastern part of Libya, that is, the Baiergai region, will be greatly affected if he breaks with the government, and oil, the country's sole industrial pillar, will be greatly affected, and it will ultimately affect ordinary people.

The people's lives are in question, looting, riots, and so on, and with the possibility of war breaking out at any time, you can imagine what kind of situation Libya is facing.

But for arms dealers, this is what they like most about this situation, and they can only do business when the world is in chaos.

"I know, I'll go tomorrow."

Until now, Libya has been divided into a no-fly zone by the United Nations, and the control of aircraft entering and leaving the area is quite strict, and this time the matter is related to Big Ivan, Xiao Yang did not take their own plane to over, but from Djibouti to Egypt by civil aircraft to Egypt and then into Libya.

Following the advice of Big Ivan, Xiao Yang called Little Ivan, Xuanyuan Zhan, and Wu Si'an, and several people used their spare identities to get on a plane from Djibouti to Egypt, and then use another identity to enter Libya by land.

Ninety-five percent of Libya's entire territory is desert, starting from western Egypt and ending in the country, and what comes into view is basically yellow sand.

Due to the civil war, not many Egyptians entered Libya, and there were only four passengers in the entire car, except for Xiao Yang.

"A lot of the oil fields here have stopped production." Along the way, several people saw that several oil fields were in a state of shutdown, compared to the situation they came here a few years ago, but there was a world of difference.

"It seems that Derangar is ruthless this time." Xiao Yang looked at the oil field and saw the looming soldiers, and knew that this must be Delanga's action, this Baiergai area, except for him, no one will have such a right, it seems that the situation here is more serious than imagined.

"Do you think there will be a declaration of independence here?" Little Ivan looked at the soldiers who appeared on the side of the road from time to time, and it was obvious that he felt the tension of the situation.

Independence is very common in Africa, like Somaliland, but Xiao Yang doesn't think it's that easy, just like Sudan, split into two independent countries, what has happened?

The price is heavy, too heavy for many people to bear.

Shaking his head, "Probably not, but there is a good chance that autonomy will be declared." ”

"Hmm. This one does. ”

There is a fundamental difference between autonomy and independence, independence is completely separate from the original country whether it is politically or economically, and has nothing to do with the original state, while autonomy is the government granting some authority to the local government, and it is still necessary to maintain a consistent attitude towards the outside world and some related matters.

This is also common in Africa, as in Somaliland, where it is largely a high degree of autonomy because it was independent at the time and was not recognized by most countries.

If Derangar breaks with the Libyan government, autonomy is the best path.

In this way, chaos and economic downturn can be avoided.

However, judging from his move to buy arms, I don't know how likely this will be.

African countries, there are not many countries that can afford to buy heavy firepower, even if Libya is a major oil producer in the world, but since the beginning of the civil war, the output of crude oil has shrunk significantly, and the domestic economy has been greatly affected.

Xiao Yang had met Delangar himself before, but that was several years ago, when they were very low-key, and Delangar obviously didn't know them.

Seeing this guy again, it still hasn't changed much, and it seems that he has a good life.

Not much different from what he had previously judged, what Derangar needed was guns, anti-tank rockets, and individual air defense systems.

Judging from the list he listed, Xiao Yang knew Delanga's intentions, whether it was an anti-tank rocket or an individual air defense system, it could be classified as a defensive weapon, which showed that he did not mean to be independent.

"On the issue of payment, we want to settle in crude oil." Finally, when it came to payment, Deranga's lieutenant came up with a barter.

Xiao Yang was a little surprised, he knew that Delanjia should not be too rich, but he should still be able to take out more than 100 million US dollars, but he didn't expect it...... However, whether it is the other party's plan or the way of trading, these have nothing to do with him, the weapon order is Big Ivan's, and he is just here to be a messenger.

"Okay, I'll tell you."

De Langa knew that Xiao Yang was just passing the word, so he didn't say much, just nodded.

Back at the small hotel in the city, Xiao Yang told Big Ivan about it.

Big Ivan and Xiao Yang's style is different, he doesn't like to barter much, in his words, it's trouble, and when he encounters this kind of thing, he basically changes hands to others, and he only accepts cash.

This time was no exception, and when Xiao Yang said that Deranga wanted to pay with crude oil, he was not very happy: "I really don't like to do business with them, they always cause me trouble." ”

Oil is a best-selling item for many countries, but for Russia, the world's second largest exporter of crude oil, they are eager to export more, import? I'm sorry, they don't need it, so this thing is really a problem for Big Ivan.

Xiao Yang faced his unhappiness and smiled helplessly, "If it were me, I really hope that there would be more trouble like this." ”

"By the way, I forgot you were there." Hearing him say this, Big Ivan immediately reacted that oil was something that needed to be imported for Xiao Yang and them, "I'll leave this crude oil to you to deal with." ”

In fact, Xiao Yang is not much interested in simple crude oil trading now, he is interested in resources, that is, oil fields, seeing that Big Ivan handed him to deal with, he asked tentatively: "Then can I let them settle with oil fields?" ”

"Oilfield? Do you want to invest in oil fields? Big Ivan was a little surprised by Xiao Yang's words, but immediately remembered another thing, "You also have a mining company, and oil is also a kind of mineral deposit, no problem, you can talk to them yourself in this regard, and give me money when the time comes." ”

"You'll leave it to me."

With several investments in the mining industry, Xiao Yang has now changed his attitude of not caring about the mining industry and has become more active, if he can use this opportunity to break into the Libyan oil market, then their mining company has another business.

The next day, Xiao Yang did not immediately reply to Delanga, but learned about the Libyan oil situation.

The news he got from Mi Qilin let him know that the situation in the oil fields in the Baiergai region was actually more complicated than what they saw.

Due to the Mou Dun of Delanjia and the government, Delanjia forced the suspension and rectification of the oil fields in the entire region, and expelled the foreign-funded enterprises that violated the relevant regulations, and the entire industry was basically in a situation of reshuffling.

Greatly reducing the proportion of Libyan oil exports, this is not what Xiao Yang is concerned about, he is concerned about the industry reshuffle, and informed Oman of the news, "I think now is our best opportunity to enter." ”

"In the oil industry, an investment of one or two billion dollars can't make a few splashes." Oman said.

Of course Xiao Yang knows this situation, the amount of investment is not large, he doesn't care much now, for him, the most important thing at the moment is an admission ticket, development, you can take your time in the future, "It's okay, take your time, the most important thing now is to enter this market, you must know that once this opportunity is missed, it will be difficult to enter again." ”

"Well, that's true. But I also have to warn you that neither we nor the mining companies have much money left. ”

Xiao Yang has also thought about this question, "Have you forgotten?" In China, we also have a strong partner. ”

"You said Lee?" Aman immediately thought of Li Zhiwei, "If he is interested, then there is no problem." ”

Li Zhiwei's identity, Xiao Yang has told him, if you cooperate with him, not to mention the capital, there will be no problem with future sales, China, as a big oil importer, does not need Xiao Yang to lobby, just with Li Zhiwei's name, there is no need to worry about domestic oil companies not purchasing their crude oil.

"By the way, I'm thinking about him." Xiao Yang said with a smile, "His reputation is good in China, as long as we cooperate with him, we don't need to worry about funds or sales at all, why not?" ”

"Well, then you talk to the mining company, the new project, manpower is still a problem."

"I'll call Zhao Nan."
