Chapter 193: General Election
Knowing that he would return to Somalia soon, Hammis told Xiao Yang to remember to beware of this Carter, "I will have people check the details of this Carter, and wait for my news ......"
Seeing him say this, Xiao Yang was relieved.
It seems that he is not behind the scenes, because if it were him, he would not have said that there was something wrong with this Carter.
"Okay......" Xiao Yang told Carter's scars, "If this Carter is really problematic, then there must be a lot of forces behind him to support him, but I don't know if it's for me personally, or for our business......"
If it was for Xiao Yang personally, Hamis would not say that he would stand by and watch, but he would not do much to help, but now that he didn't know the other party's intentions, he naturally didn't dare to slack off, and after hanging up the phone, he used all the channels in his hands to start investigating this Carter.
Originally, he planned to go to the headquarters of the revolutionary army, but now with this fake Carter, it is naturally not suitable to go, and the next day, Xiao Yang said goodbye to Martin, and the group left Colombia and returned to Somalia.
I had said hello before, and when I saw Carter, Aman didn't have any abnormalities and welcomed him very warmly.
However, Xiao Yang did not have much time to "make out" with him, because the Congolese election had begun, and as a friend of Kabila Jr. and a security adviser to the election, he had to go over.
After leaving Xuanyuan Zhan and Wu Si'an at home for a day, he and little Ivan set off again for Congo.
Kabila's itinerary is public, and the security is invisibly more difficult, but fortunately, I listened to his advice and hired a team of mercenaries in the top ten, plus the presidential guard, and I can deal with any problems.
Arriving in Kinshasa, Makara personally went to the airport to pick up the two.
They are all old acquaintances, so naturally there is nothing to be polite about, seeing his car appear at the airport, Xiao Yang and Little Ivan climbed into the car without saying a word.
"Go get something to eat first, I'm starving." As soon as he got in the car, little Ivan shouted.
"Ah......" Makara was dumbfounded, at the speed of Gulfstream 650, from Somalia to Kinshasa, it was only a few hours, didn't he come over with dinner? You guys came here without eating? ”
Little Ivan gave him a blank look, "You have a phone call on the left, a phone call on the right, like a hypnosis, you just got up and came over, and there were no flight attendants on our plane, so we came hungry all the way, hurry up and lead the way and eat." ”
Time is indeed a little tight, but there is no need to be in such a hurry, Makara couldn't cry or laugh, and hurriedly drove straight to the hotel, and only went to the presidential palace after eating.
This meal was a little supportive, and when he saw Kabila, Xiao Yang also burped.
"Honestly, how sure are you of winning this time?" After sitting down, he asked little Kabila straight to the point.
Although the copper mine is a contract signed with the Congolese government, no one knows whether the new president will recognize it when he takes office, after all, many countries on the African continent have never felt how important the integrity of the government is, and for his own interests, Xiao Yang hopes that Kabila Jr. can be re-elected.
"I'm 100% sure that there will be no problems with this speech." Little Kabila replied confidently.
"That's good." Xiao Yang knew Little Kabila's character, and he would never say this if he was not sure, but he still said, "If there is any difficulty, talk to me, even if it is to kill your competitors, it will be no problem." ”
Listening to his bland tone, little Kabila felt a chill in his heart, he thought that he was not a weak person, he rebelled against the throne back then, and the people who died because of themselves did not know how much, but he would never be able to decide a person's life and death so indifferently like Xiao Yang.
"Not yet." He shook his head, "Just make sure this speech goes smoothly." ”
"Okay." He didn't have this requirement himself, and Xiao Yang would definitely not be bored enough to take the initiative.
The next day was the day of the first leg of the speech, and after learning about some preparations, Makara asked him if he wanted to meet the mercenaries.
Xiao Yang shook his head, he would not stand in front of the stage this time, but as a dark chess, he would not communicate with these mercenaries, so there was no need to get to know them.
Once again, the security plan was determined, and Ivan Jr. left the presidential palace and booked two rooms in the central square in Kinshasa, next to the venue for Kabila Jr.'s speech tomorrow.
Over the years, Kabila Jr. has been somewhat dictatorial in terms of governance, but it is undeniable that during his years in power, Congo's economic development has been very fast, but Yu does not hide his flaws, and there are problems, such as official corruption, and this reincarnation speech is mainly about some issues of anti-corruption.
In democratic elections, ordinary people are the foundation, and anti-corruption, welfare and policies for those at the bottom are the most popular.
In his speech the next day, as soon as the topic of his speech came out, he immediately won a lot of applause.
Neither Xiao Yang nor Little Ivan cared about this, sitting by the window of the room, listening to the reports of the presidential guards and mercenaries through the intercom, while keeping an eye on the situation in the square, until the end of the speech, little Kabila left, and then relaxed.
Ten cities, ten days, one city a day.
Maybe it's because of his fame, maybe it's because of the deterrence of the helicopter formation, which is a powerful armed force, and after ten days and ten speeches, there has been no riot in the previous elections, and he is greeted with applause everywhere he goes, not gunshots.
"The polls are out?" After the last speech, the group immediately returned to Kinshasa, and Xiao Yang did not return to Somalia immediately.
The general election will begin in five days, and he will not leave the Congo until the results are determined.
For this election, Kabila Jr. made a bloody investment and specially invited a professional company from the United States, and the poll that Xiao Yang asked was one of the businesses of this company.
Makara hurriedly made an OK gesture, "No problem, among several candidates, they have an absolute advantage." ”
This is Xiao Yang's favorite news to hear, nodded, and left the presidential palace with little Ivan, "I'll go to the copper mine for a turn, and I'll come back in three days, and I'll call if I have something." ”
"No problem." After the lecture tour, other things are taken care of by a professional company, and there is nothing for Xiao Yang, and Makara and Kabila Jr. will naturally not stop him from doing other things.
Most of Xiao Yang's mining area belongs to open-pit mines, so it is very simple to mine, and after more than four months of preparation, it has been officially put into production half a month ago.
As the railway was still under construction, the ore was transported by road for the time being, and when little Ivan arrived at the newly built road into the mine, they were confronted by a convoy of ore.
"It looks like the production is not bad." Dozens of heavy trucks lined up, the scene was quite spectacular, Xiao Yang parked the car on the side of the road, and waited for the convoy to pass completely before starting the car again.
"It's all money." Little Ivan said with a smile.
Although the mining company does not have his private shares, but the arms company has it, and the mining company belongs to the investment of the arms company, and the mining company also has his share, so every penny made by the copper mine has his share, how can he not laugh when he sees this scene?
"Hehe......" Looking at his appearance as a fan of money, Xiao Yang shook his head and smiled.
Oliveira, who is now based in Guinea and Congo, came a few days ago because it was for the sake of production, and he did not leave after coming, and when he arrived at the mine, he happened to see him wearing a hard hat and a group of people holding drawings outside the makeshift office building.
"Oliveira ......" The person in charge of security knew Xiao Yang and the two and let them in directly, so Oliveira didn't know they were coming.
Oliveira was used to Xiao Yang's sudden appearance, waved hello to him, then said a few words to one of them and trotted over.
"Big boss, are you here for an unannounced visit?" After this period of contact, Oliveira returned to his original attitude in front of Xiao Yang, and there was no grievance of being forced to change companies.
"Secret visit to yarn." Xiao Yang smiled and scolded this flamboyant guy.
The conditions in the mine are a bit difficult, and the office is a temporary cement brick house, but fortunately, the electricity problem has long been solved, and there is no shortage of air conditioning or something.
