African countries are not all what we see on TV. They are full of hungry people and full of loess. Many countries have beautiful mountains and clear waters and a pleasant climate. And many famous cities are no worse than domestic metropolises. This is evident from South Africa's bid to host the 2010 World Cup. China did not participate in the 2014 World Cup in Brazil and the 2018 World Cup in Russia. This is also a big regret.
Although there are frequent wars in Bodajia, both old forces and new forces have a tacit understanding of choosing remote battlefields and staying away from cities. Therefore, they have little impact on several key cities in Bodajia. Li Si came to Bodajia The capital city of A was Kaipinado. It didn’t receive any special attention because there were also many Asians in Potaka. Li Si didn’t want to attract too much attention. He bought a travel backpack in Bangkok, Thailand, and put some daily necessities in it. In fact, he doesn't need these at all.
I got into a taxi with a very African local black driver. This driver was a chatterbox. He introduced himself as soon as he arrived. This guy's name is Twala. He speaks fluent English. According to him, 90% of the people in Badajia speak English. Twala asked Li Si where he was going. Li Si asked him to take him for a walk. Twala knew that it was the first time for Li Si to drive a Pinado, and he was more happy to earn more fares.
What surprised Li Si was that the roads in the capital of Badajia were wide and flat. They were no worse than big cities in China. Although there were almost no high-rise buildings, they were neat and clean. Plus the climate was pleasant. It was a bit like Sanya in China. There are also many pedestrians on the street. Most of them are well dressed. They are not as bad as what is advertised on TV. Those black children with no clothes and poor medical conditions. What people see in Africa seems to be full of flies. There are black children with belly as big as drums everywhere. You can't see these scenes in Caipinado. Instead, it looks like a Chinese city in the 1980s. Although it is not prosperous, it is definitely not that poor. It’s outrageous. It seems that only a few countries or regions in Africa are living in dire straits.
However, it may also be because Kaipinado is the capital of Padaka.
When the taxi drove through the streets, Li Si still saw many dirty and messy streets. It was as if the 1980s and 1960s coexisted.
When Li Si asked vaguely about the local situation, Tevara did not hide anything. He told Li Si that the current general of Bo Dajia is Pirlo. But Bo Dajia is not entirely under his control. The messenger in the north of Bo Dajia The city of Kuru and several smaller cities were in the hands of another general named Kanu. The city of Burungkaru in the northeast was also in the hands of a general named Obinna.
In other words, the current situation of Bo Dajia is like that of the last three kingdoms. The Wei Kingdom is the Pirlo army that controls most of the country. The Wu Kingdom is the Obinna army in the northeast. The Shu Kingdom is the Kanu army in the north.
If you want to break this balance, where should you start?
But there is no need to consider these things right away. First of all, you should find Luo Kun, who is the owner of the gold mine contracted by Chu Yanxiong in the Badajia gold mine. He is a Jiangxi native. Luo Kun is Chu Yanxiong’s spokesperson in the Badajia gold mine. The gold mine was seized and everyone was shot dead. At that time, Luo Kun and his family were buying daily necessities in a town fifty kilometers away. Therefore, they escaped. Afterwards, Luo Kun and Chu Yanxiong maintained communication. Everything We can wait until we go to Colton and find Luo Kun.
After having enough sightseeing in the capital, Li Si asked Twala to charter his car to Colton Town. Twala shook his head like a rattle and refused to go no matter what. Lisi offered twice the price. Twala Still shaking his head. Twala actually really wanted to make this money. But most of the areas around the town of Colton are remote places where mineral deposits are concentrated. It is far away from the Obinna Army in the northeast and the Kanu Army in the North. The sphere of influence is very close. In other words, although Colton is controlled by General Pirlo, once a war breaks out, Colton is not very safe. In addition, basically every mine owner has a private armed force. The small one is twenty or thirty days old, the large one is even a private army of several hundred people. In the Colton area, even General Pirlo does not dare to be too casual. It has angered the mine owners from all over the world. Maybe they will unite. Enough for Pirlo to drink a bottle.
Fortunately, the mine owners are all businessmen. Businessmen pursue profits. They are not interested in occupying land as king. They are also unwilling to spend more money and go against the local army. Of course, the exceptions are those mining areas contracted by Chinese businessmen. Because They were all armed with small teams and were wiped out in one fell swoop.
Twala didn't dare to go to Colton. Lees didn't force him, so he asked him to buy a map for him. He paid the fare and found out from him the location of the car trading place where Pinado was driven. Twala After driving him to the car trading place, he left. The car trading place was not large in scale. There were no high-end cars for sale. Most of them were Japanese Toyota and Honda cars. What Li Si hated most were Japanese cars. So. Definitely not. Then I fell in love with a British four-wheel drive Land Rover. It was a second-hand car. Li Si bought it for US$30,000. The price was very cheap. The cheapest Land Rover cost six to seven hundred thousand. A good one cost two hundred. More than 10,000 yuan. Although it is a second-hand product, it is still 70% new. US$30,000 is equivalent to less than 200,000, and you can get the license plate directly. Li Si saw it as a bargain and bought another Land Rover that was 70% to 80% new. When we got down, the boss asked for $50,000. He said the car was newer and a new model. Li Si didn't care about the price, so he paid the money generously. The boss was very happy to have made a business of $80,000 and gave him a bucket. Gasoline was given to Li Si. In fact, gasoline is relatively cheaper in Africa. While the boss was sorting out the procedures, Li Si borrowed the toilet for a while. When he came out, he had already brought Long Shien with him. The boss saw that there was an extra person out of thin air, so he returned. I thought he came in later. There was no doubt that he was there.
Li Si and Long Shien each drove a Land Rover out of the parking lot and set off for Carlton Town according to the map.
Sure enough, the driver was right. After leaving the capital and driving Pinado, it became relatively desolate. The road conditions were definitely worse by several grades. However, this is not a problem at all for the famous British four-wheel drive Land Rover. Even if No matter how bad the road conditions are, it is enough to cope with it.
After driving for a while, night began to fall. Li Si honked the horn and signaled Long Shien to stop.
They parked the car in an open area and had dinner. While eating, they discussed the preparations for the operation.
(Sorry, sorry. Shitou was not drunk yesterday. He went rafting. He was tired for a whole day. He fell asleep when he came back. He has not exercised for a long time. His health has really deteriorated a lot. Everyone can learn from this. I will upload eight chapters at a time today. Make up for yesterday.)
