Rebirth of Military Workers

Chapter 516

“We can settle at 60% of the international gold price.” Kabila frowned when he looked at Xie Kai.

This Chinese is too greedy.

“I think cash is more cost-effective.” Xie Kai was still dissatisfied.

The other party obviously has no channel to cash. Gold and diamonds are the most circulating hard currencies in the world, but they are willing to settle directly with gold, or even settle at 60% of the international gold price.

“Mr. Xie, if so, I think it will be difficult for us to negotiate.” Kabila said with a gloomy face.

“Thanks, this price is very reasonable…In Africa, there is no such situation.” Kovarubi hopes that Xie Kai will not be so greedy. Xie Kai can earn 40% as long as he finds channels. There is no need to take profits or even risks.

Xie Kai looked at Ibrahim, but this guy kept silent.

Seeing Xie Kai looking towards him, Ibrahim turned his head directly to the side.

“50%, if you agree, you will pay at this price.” Xie Kai stretched out a slap, Kabila’s face became more gloomy, and he immediately refused, but Xie Kai didn’t give him a chance to speak, and then said, “These golds I think you know better than me. General, gold is indeed very attractive in the world, but it cannot be directly used for settlement. If you buy it in Europe or other countries, even if they are willing to ask for it, the price given is far Far below this price, the risk is high…”

Kabila was silent.

Xie Kai is right. Everyone knows these things. Otherwise, they wouldn’t want to pay for weapons transactions with Xie Kai directly in gold.

Just to make the price of gold higher, in exchange for more weapons and equipment.

“All settlements are made with gold. Although gold is valuable, it is the guarantee for most national banks to issue currency, but after all, this thing cannot be used to buy things, isn’t it? Those who can turn gold into money, except for the National Bank, then only gold The silver jewellery company is…” Xie Kai continued.

After hearing that the other party said to pay with gold, he was thinking about how to cash out the gold.

The country needs to reserve gold, but individuals cannot directly trade with the country.

There is no problem if the quantity is not large.

Kabila was generous and gave hundreds of kilograms of gold directly at the meeting ceremony, and 400 kilograms of gold was thrown away in the first business.

The density of gold is very high, 500 kilograms together, not much.

But it’s valuable!

If Kabila had no gold in his hands, Xie Kai would not believe it at all.

If it is really gone, will the other party take out 500 kilograms of gold before seeing Xie Kai?

No fool would do that.

Xie Kai concluded that there is more gold in the opponent’s hand. This time it is just a test. If the price is too high at the beginning, then the loss will not be a little bit or two.

He can also be sure that this price is much higher than those of European and American capitalists.

“If it is to do business with our government and settle gold, there is no problem. The amount of gold in our National Bank’s reserves is not too much, and it is in urgent need of gold. But if the government sells weapons to you, this will have a great international impact-supporting anti-counterfeiting. The government is armed. It is impossible for even the Soviet Union to support, let alone China, which has never interfered in the internal affairs of other countries. The transaction can only be done by myself…” Xie Kai did not give the other party a chance to speak.

The relationship between Kovarubi and the other party made Xie Kai realize that the previous Tanzanian delegation was in China to find support and assistance for Kabila.

In Africa’s resistance to tyranny, the black brothers naturally felt that China, the big brother of the third world, should support it.

It’s just a pity, in the end…

“Thank you, you are as greedy as those capitalists like vampires in the West.” Kabila gritted his teeth, and the fat man’s face was a little distorted.

When Xie Kai heard this, he laughed, “General, it’s not that I am too greedy, but that I do business. At least, I can’t lose money, isn’t it? If I have a jewelry company or something, it’s not a problem. Could it be that you guys There are only 500 kilograms of gold in my hand? It is very troublesome to deal with these 500 kilograms of gold. After all, this gold needs to be washed out…”

“We only have 500 kilograms of gold.” Kabila shook his head and said, “So, the settlement price you gave is too low.”

“Then there is no way.” Xie Kai shrugged, spreading his hands.

Just kidding.

When Kabila overthrew Mobutu’s rule, he relied on the support of Uganda and Burundi, two small and poor countries, to overthrow Mobutu’s huge army. Together, these two countries could not do Mobutu. .

“Xie Kai, Kabila is our friend and will be our major customer in the future.” Ibrahim said directly after seeing the two talk.

He wanted to remind Xie Kai that Congo’s rich resources are what they value.

Because resources can be exchanged for money.

“General, General Kabila and I only met today. They said they were friends, a little earlier. As for customers, it’s hard to tell. You have to ask Colonel Liao Dong.” Xie Kai didn’t give face at all.

What can Ibrahim do?

The 50 million US dollars of funding is still a rebate from the arms deal between Xie Kai and Iraq.

If he can use the internal relations in Iraq to invest here, it will naturally not be a problem.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

Obviously, he couldn’t even supply guns and ammunition on a large scale here. Otherwise, Kabila would never find Xie Kai at all.

Who would give up such an opportunity to make money?

“Comrade Xie Kai, General Kabila hopes that our mercenaries can help them train guerrillas to fight. At the same time, we also hope that our mercenaries can take over his business to overthrow Mobutu’s brutal rule…” Kovarubi knew Xie Kai Only recognize money.

I actually talked about it before, Xie Kai is very tempted.

“Yes, for training the guerrillas, we can pay for gold and diamonds; for the later combat contract, a certain proportion of gold should be paid first, and the rest can be mortgaged with engineering and mining rights…” Kabila’s tone was a bit low, almost Squeezed from between the teeth.

Xie Kai’s eyes lit up instantly.

In Africa as a whole, not many countries have more resources than Congo.

In particular, the Democratic Republic of Congo, which is now the Republic of Zaire, is rich in various mineral resources. It is precisely for this reason that it will eventually be in war.

“This is not in line with our principles.” Xie Kai finally sighed and shook his head.

“What do you want?” Kabila felt like Xie Kai was playing tricks.

He even sold the rights of the country, but the other party still didn’t let it go.

“Our country’s foreign policy is a win-win cooperation. Although your conditions are very tempting, but to be honest, General, I’m just an individual, not a government. We don’t make estimated investments. Even if you are izak now President of the Republic of Iran, I think it would be difficult for me to reach a cooperation agreement with you on such matters.”

“why?”

“You set the conditions now, and when the time comes, you can directly take back and forcibly nationalize the assets we invested. What can we do?” Xie Kai’s words are very realistic. “That’s how Mobutu did it, right?”

Mobutu nationalized many of the mines invested by Western countries in Zaire, but in the end they all fell into his own pocket.

“I’m not the tyrant of Mobutu!” Kabila never thought that Xie Kai was so difficult.

“I know, General, you want to liberate the people of the whole country. But what if our deal is made public? Before the founding of the People’s Republic of China, some people in our country signed some treaties with the little devil, which in the end caused a lot of Those who signed the contract are also called traitors…” Xie Kai said calmly.

The other party uses mining rights such as mines as collateral, which everyone likes.

But this is not what Xie Kai wants to see.

In the beginning, when Kabila was fledgling, it might not be a big problem.

Once he has a firm foothold, or if something goes wrong in the country, all investments will be in vain.

If you want to collect the cost of mine investment, you can’t do it in a short time.

“Thanks, General Kabila sincerely hopes to cooperate with us.”

“I also sincerely hope that we can cooperate for a long time.” Xie Kai looked at Kovarubi, “So, gold is settled at 50% of the international price. This is just the beginning. I think people in Western countries are only willing to give up to 30%. Right?”

30%, just guessed by Xie Kai.

“No, they only give 20%.” Kovarubi is definitely a pig teammate. Kabila looked at him unhappy, but the old guy didn’t care at all, “Kabila, if you really want to be able to do it as soon as possible To develop and grow, save the people of your country, and no longer suffer from Mobutu’s cruelty, Comrade Xie Kai, will be a very good partner for cooperation.”

“Not necessarily.” Xie Kai looked at Kabila and said with a smile, “However, I can provide any cheap weapons and equipment other than nuclear weapons and strategic weapons, that’s for sure.”

Xie Kai suddenly felt that positioning himself as an arms dealer seemed more appropriate.

“Indeed, Iraq’s new tanks and anti-aircraft missiles are all sold by Xie Kai.” Ibrahim also said.

He knows better than anyone now that Xie Kai is his big benefactor, and it is too easy to make money with Xie Kai. Even for his own safety, he felt that in the future, he could find a few powerful mercenaries to protect him.

If the president wants to kill him, not to mention overthrowing the president, at least, someone can protect him and escape, right?

“Comrade Xie Kai, I need your support.” Kabila said solemnly, “I agree to settle at 50% of the price…”

“How much gold do you have?” Xie Kai asked.

Kabila was obviously unwilling to answer Xie Kai’s question, he was afraid that Xie Kai would rob him.

“Xie Kai, what are you asking so much for? As long as General Kabila can afford the employment costs and weapons procurement costs, there is no problem, right?” Kovarubi also felt that Xie Kai was a bit too much.

Kabila has a lot of gold and diamonds in his hands, and even he doesn’t know the exact amount.

When Amin was killed, Uganda also gave him a lot of gold.

“This is very important. On the one hand, I need to know how many channels I can use to get the gold out; on the other hand, I need to know how much weapons and equipment I have to prepare and through what channels to safely deliver to my customers. Hands.” Xie Kai said calmly. “If it’s just five hundred kilograms of gold, it will be slower at best, and I will be able to deal easily.”

If too much gold is put into the market, he will be the first one to be cleaned up. Therefore, he can only talk to the National Bank about this. The amount is too small for others to look down upon, right?

“Not much. We have accumulated for so many years, but only less than 15 tons…” Kabila gritted his teeth and said.

When I said this, I was completely on guard against Xie Kai and Liao Dong, fearing that these two guys would take a risk and catch him.

“So much?” Ibrahim’s mouth drooled, and Kovarubi’s eyes widened.

Seeing how they looked at him, Kabila took two steps back, becoming more nervous.

Liao Dong looked at Xie Kai. If Xie Kai gave an order, he would not hesitate to do it.

Fifteen tons of gold is enough for them to take risks.

Xie Kai was also shocked, and had no idea why the opponent would accumulate so much gold.

He had no intention of robbing the other party at all.

“General Kabila, if so much gold is exchanged for U.S. dollars, it would be hundreds of millions. If you want, I can pay at 60% of the price!” Xie Kai said calmly. “Either give us dollars, or give weapons and equipment… As for the follow-up cooperation, I think you will not be short of gold.” Xie Kai said.

There is definitely a gold mine in Kabila’s hands.

Moreover, gold mines with very high yields, otherwise, it is impossible to accumulate so much.

According to the international gold price, even if it is cheaper, a ton of gold can cost tens of millions of dollars.

More than ten tons, you can talk to the official.

“No, Comrade Xie Kai, I think it’s better to trade slowly and settle at 50%!” Kabila shook his head.

He was afraid that Xie Kai would really rob his gold.

Fifteen tons, that is what he has now.

“That’s OK, no problem, we can talk about cooperation now. Training guerrillas, there is no problem, providing mercenaries to fight, there is no problem. Even providing troops to enter the eastern part of the Republic of Zaire to rob their gold and diamond mines. , The same is not a problem!” Xie Kai snapped his fingers. “What kind of weapons and equipment do you need for the first batch of transactions? Tell me, I can arrange to ship them in the near future.”

Rich don’t make a bastard.

Besides, this is a business that makes money from both ends.

Weapons and equipment are definitely not the price of cabbage, and if you get the gold back, you only need to negotiate with the official management department to double the profit.

These money can be included in Xie Kai’s own pocket.

“Can the 107 rocket launcher be provided? The kind you install behind the pickup…” Kabila breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Xie Kai didn’t ask him where the gold was hidden or the source of the gold.

Kovarubi and Ibrahim looked at each other, and both saw regret in each other’s eyes.

“As long as it’s not strategic missiles, nuclear warheads, or nuclear submarines, what we have in our country, it’s not a big problem!” Xie Kai patted his chest to assure.
