Return to the exciting era of 1999

Chapter 1408: Status improvement through strength and luck

Originally, I had no impression of Ji Donglai from Eritrea. At this stage, Ji Donglai accidentally went to Jida, and the leaders of this country happened to know about it.

Because he knew that Yiyuan Manufacturing had invested in a lot of businesses in Jida and Liad, the other party's investment minister insisted on pestering Ji Donglai for several days, which made Ji Donglai tire of it.

Later, it was Li Dongxin who received him. Fortunately, he was a veteran. He enjoyed all kinds of things, but Li Dongxin never let up on the specific investment.

After all, it is too underdeveloped there, and it is comparable to Afhan. The difference is that it is at the node of the Belt and Road Initiative, and Ji Donglai has a lot of business.

This is the Red Sea Alley. Tourism and minerals are the focus of gambling houses that want to attract investment. Li Dongxin is not good at it and is thinking about how to intervene. Just as David's matter comes up, Ji Donglai comes directly to think about his old friend.

"Ji, we are very good friends. If this thing succeeds, maybe I can provide you with another opportunity. Trust me!"

Commodities and high technology have always been the targets of Wall Street businessmen. Eritrea is the traditional sphere of influence of Europe. Even Canadian companies come in through European relationships.

It wasn't like David hadn't thought of getting involved here, and now he finally had the opportunity. He was so excited that he hurriedly extended an olive branch to Ji Donglai.

Ji Donglai didn't take this matter seriously and handed the other party directly to Li Dongxin. Now Li Dongxin is running the affairs of the entire Middle East and Africa.

Li Dongxin has been to Eritrea several times. Generally speaking, it is very friendly to One Yuan Manufacturing.

"Huh? Colonel, your official position is not small. What did he tell me to do with this thing?"

Li Dongxin and David inspected various mines in the country within half a month. Ji Donglai did not bother to ask about the inspection results. David returned directly to the country and left Ji Donglai a contact information before leaving.

The other party knew that Li Dongxin was coming, and the standard of reception was relatively high.

"Claire!"

The note from the other party was in an envelope. Li Dongxin didn't read it the whole time. Ji Donglai hesitated and finally picked up his satellite phone.

"In one hour, Jida, Black Hawk helicopter will pick you up, alone!"

There was a majestic voice on the other side of the phone. Before Ji Donglai spoke, the other party announced his home address. Ji Donglai quickly told the other party that David had introduced him and told him his location.

This land has a very special geographical location on the Red Sea coast. To the south is Djibouti, which is very important to world powers, and to the north is Sudan. Since the country ended its internal turmoil, there is still no clear leadership structure.

Looking at the small piece of paper in his hand, Ji Donglai looked at his senior brother strangely.

"He said he was an officer in the Mi Army in Djibouti. Only insiders can introduce each other to do business with each other. He also specified that you can only make phone calls yourself, and no one else is allowed!"

Colonel Claire was only briefly shocked, and then told Ji Donglai in an almost commanding tone. Before Ji Donglai had time to express any comments, the other party hung up the phone.

Thinking about the current situation of his company, Ji Donglai headed directly to the location mentioned by the other party. Sure enough, a Black Hawk helicopter landed at the airport an hour later. Several heavily armed American soldiers got off the plane and started looking around. alert.

Ran Bo was left at the airport, and Ji Donglai boarded the helicopter alone. After a half-hour flight, Ji Donglai flew across the Bab el-Mandeb Strait and landed on the tarmac of a hotel near Djibouti. Ji Donglai bent over and entered the hotel's floor-to-ceiling window. Inside, a powerful middle-aged white man sat at a small table. The man looked Ji Donglai up and down, and then threw a cigar over to him.

"Young man, David said you are very reliable, but it seems that your body is not suitable for cooperating with us. I am referring to the military order."

Asking Ji Donglai to sit down, the other party handed him a lighter, and Ji Donglai lit the cigar without any courtesy.

"Don't worry, I'm doing business with your people in Afhan. I provide more than half of their refined oil products, as well as some daily necessities and occasional equipment maintenance. We have cooperated very well over the years. joy."

"It's just over Badakshan. I'm currently doing business over there in Afhan. I like doing business with you very much. There aren't so many businessmen who are intrigues."

Ji Donglai was not very used to the taste of cigars. They were completely raw cigarettes and had a very strong taste.

It was very similar to the cigarettes in Central Asia. Ji Donglai took a few puffs and held the cigar in his hand.

"Our order this time is somewhat special and we need a suitable person to do it. We are short of some drones. David said that you can provide a large enough drone. You need to do it according to our requirements. There will be specific people. Communicate with you.”

"We'll exchange some of the seized items with you, not cash, you know what I mean."

After staring at Ji Donglai with deep-set eye sockets and eagle-like blue eyes for a long time, Colonel Carlisle handed Ji Donglai a list with drawings underneath.

Ji Donglai just put down his cigar and unfolded the drawing to carefully check some details.

Various information collided in my mind, and I already had a rough guess.

At the bottom is the specific quantity of the order. The trees are so big that they can be described as terrifying. The payment terms of the other party are also very attractive. Among the various equipment seized from IS, including some weapons, some of the equipment is still in Afkhan, and Ji Donglai needs to pick it up himself.

The most incredible thing about Donglai is that it also includes a whole ship of oil, which was also seized by the American army in the Gulf of Aden. The various forces here are intertwined and are the boss of my world. The other party's army has unparalleled law enforcement in any country. right.

Especially now that this place is completely in chaos, there are many illegal forces selling resources through various channels in exchange for funds, and the materials seized by the other party are far more than these.

Ji Donglai boldly guessed that someone on the other side must have resold some equipment, which led to a serious gap in high-tech weapons. This time, a lot of the equipment ordered by the other party came with drawings, and the appearance had to be processed according to the other party's drawings, and the construction period was very urgent.

"It can be done, but you need to provide some electronic accessories. Some of the interfaces here are very special, especially the process chips. We can also design it and you purchase it. This thing is now severely restricted and the price is very expensive!"

Given the opportunity to cooperate with the other party, Ji Donglai would never let it go.

Especially when it comes to some sensitive electronic components, almost all of Mi Jun's purchase list comes from Wanwan, and even high-end chips are from TSMC.

Many of these electronic components are not sold domestically. Once a purchase application is made, Ji Donglai is worried that the sanctions list that he managed to escape will be re-added.
