Hong Kong Giant Owl: Rebirth

Chapter 378 Conflicts of Interest
There are many ethnic minorities in the Golden Triangle. They used to grow crops for a living. After Britain, the United States, and France taught the locals the cultivation and extraction methods of opium poppy, they all changed to poppy cultivation under the force of those warlords.

Although the sales of opium produced in the Golden Triangle or its refined products such as morphine and heroin can earn unimaginable huge profits, in fact, the local farmers in the Golden Triangle grow opium poppies, and their annual income is only a little higher than that of ordinary crops. , They don't even know what kind of poppy is, they only know how to grow these things and sell them to the local warlords to support themselves.

The local warlords in the Golden Triangle also strictly control the soldiers and farmers under their jurisdiction. First of all, they are prohibited from taking drugs.This is similar to the Opium War launched by the United Kingdom in the past, that is, drug abuse was strictly prohibited in the country, but opium was vigorously promoted and sold abroad.

From the information brought by Huang Tie, Qin Haoran learned that there are also some Chinese in the Golden Triangle.Among these Chinese, some are drug dealers who specialize in buying drugs in the Golden Triangle and then selling them outside, and some are people who immigrated there decades ago.

While reading the information about the Golden Triangle, Qin Haoran was also thinking about who he should choose as his partner.

Qin Haoran went to Cao Edong before, in fact, he wanted to use Cao Edong to get in touch with Chachai, the warlord behind him, and then the two parties would directly conduct a transaction.In this way, Qin Haoran can avoid the cost of Cao Edong's "intermediate link" in buying drugs, and can also buy more drugs.

However, because Cao Edong's ignorance angered Qin Haoran, and finally caused the ship to be destroyed and the dead bodies to sink into the sea. Now no one knows how he died and who died in his hands.

In order to prevent Chachai from finding out that Cao Edong's death was related to him, Qin Haoran was the first to rule out the possibility of cooperating with Chachai.According to Huang Tie's information, among the four most powerful warlords in the Golden Triangle, Karoni ranked first in strength, followed by Bassana, Chachai ranked third, and Ne Win ranked last.

"Old Huang, how much do you know about Kalongi's situation?" Qin Haoran asked.

"Kalonyi." Huang Tie thought for a while and said, "This is the most powerful person in the Golden Triangle. He is a Burmese. He has been in the Golden Triangle since [-]. After years of Fighting, finally have their own forces and armed forces, and gradually develop into the giants of the Golden Triangle."

After a pause, Huang Tie continued: "Of the [-] tons of opium that the Golden Triangle produces every year, [-] tons come from Karoni, and then Basana can produce [-] tons. Chachai and Nai Wen added up to [-] tons, and the remaining small warlords and small forces added up to the last [-] tons."

When Qin Haoran heard this, he said, "So, Kalongyi accounts for [-]% of the opium produced by the Golden Triangle each year?"

Huang Tie nodded, this is really powerful, and he said again: "People who help Karoni buy opium are all over the world, not to mention the United States and European countries, even Japan, Taiwan, India, Thailand, etc. Karoni also accounts for a large share of the drug market in Asian countries. According to our estimates, Karoni’s annual income from drug trafficking can reach more than 1 million U.S. dollars.”

Even Qin Haoran couldn't help but take a deep breath, the current more than 1 million US dollars is almost equivalent to several billion US dollars in the 21st century.There are billions of dollars in profits a year, which is simply the size of a large multinational group.

And this is only the income of the suppliers in the country of origin, Qin Haoran was thinking, if he processed these opium into high-purity No. It will be several times higher.

However, Qin Haoran also knew that facing warlords like Kalongyi, the key issue was not how much money he had, but how much he could buy.

According to the information provided by Huang Tie and Qin Haoran's own cognition, although the production of drugs in the Golden Triangle is increasing every year, for the vast international market, the supply is always in short supply.Buyers in the Golden Triangle include mafia and smuggling organizations from all over the world, and these buyers only have a fixed share of purchases every year, that is to say, the way people like Karoni sell drugs is fixed and quantitative.

This means that it is not possible to buy goods with strong funds, but to establish a good relationship with Kalongi and the others.Because other people's goods don't worry about sales at all, so you don't have to care about the buyer. If he is in a bad mood, he doesn't have to sell the goods to you.

Qin Haoran asked Huang Tie: "How is the relationship between the four major warlord groups?"

Huang Tie rubbed his nose and said with a smile: "Their relationship is really complicated, let's start with Kalongi, Kalongi is actually Ne Win's brother-in-law, but Kalongi has many women, I'm afraid there are a few Ten. At the beginning, Ne Win was able to work under Kalongi only because of his sister's relationship. And this Ne Win was still loyal to Kalongi at that time. But later, Kalongi once When he was ambushed by his opponent, he left Ne Win's sister behind without hesitation in order to escape for his own life, causing Ne Win's sister to be violently raped by Kalongi's opponent, and finally died tragically."

Qin Haoran did not expect that there was such a past between Kalongi and Ne Win. Qin Haoran could figure out what happened afterwards with his toes. Ne Win left Kalongi and set up his own family. Because of the tragic death of his sister.

Sure enough, Huang Tie said: "Ne Win's ability is very good, Kalongi thinks highly of him. In order to continue to control Ne Win, Kalongi did not tell him the real cause of death of Ne Win's sister, so Ne Win always thought that his sister's The opponent of the dead knowledge, Kalongi, killed him, and in the end he tried his best to kill the opponent, Kalongi."

After a pause, Huang Tie said again: "But later, Ne Win learned the truth about his sister's tragic death from one of Karoni's subordinates, and only then did he realize that the reason for his sister's tragic death was entirely because of Karoni's ruthless Therefore, Ne Win immediately defected from Kalongi’s group and set up his own company, and brought out a large part of Kalongi’s clients. Kalongi was furious and wanted to kill Ne Win, but Ne Win has been prepared for a long time, he has reached a cooperative relationship with the Thai government, using the Thai army to fight against Karoni, and Karoni can do nothing to him."

"As for Bassana and Chachai, Bassana is a relatively neutral person." Huang Tie said: "He will not easily quarrel with other forces, but he will not cooperate with others casually. He and Karoni and others The relationship between the other three warlord forces is still biased toward a state where the river does not interfere with the well."

"Guess what?" Qin Haoran asked.

Huang Tie said: "Chachai is more inclined to cooperate with Kalongyi. The relationship between the two of them should be the best among the four major groups. Sometimes Chachai's supply is not enough, so they will borrow from Kalongyi. But , this relationship is not strong, after all, Kalongi and Chachai are not easy-going lamps, and they will be wary of each other."

"It's not surprising." Qin Haoran chuckled: "If you want to survive in that kind of place, if you are a good man and a believer, you will be swallowed up by others."

Looking at Qin Haoran, Huang Tie said seriously: "How about it, who do you plan to attack?"

"Let's start with Kalongi first." Qin Haoran said: "Because the quantity of goods I need is very large, since Kalongi has the largest output, I will look to him first."

Huang Tie said: "But you have to be careful, you have to sell the goods to the United States, but I know that many of Kalongyi's customers are the mafia in the United States, and these mafia who are also Kalongyi's customers The parties are in a competitive or even hostile relationship with each other, because whoever buys more goods can occupy more market share, so, I think these mafia will definitely not welcome you, and you are not interested in cards. Longyi is a stranger again, and Kalongi will not cooperate with you easily."

"Heh heh heh, so to speak, the prospect of my business this time is still very bleak." Qin Haoran laughed.

"Hehehe, don't I know you yet?" Huang Tie said with a smile, "You are the kind of guy who never knows what difficulties are. Even if there are mountains of swords and fire ahead, you still dare to marry him."

Qin Haoran leaned back, held a cup of fragrant tea, took a sip, and then said with a smile: "It's good that you know, how about the thing I asked you to do now?"

"It went smoothly. After all, you gave us so much money to clear things up, and the He family helped you to deal with them, so the joints are relatively easy to get through." Huang Tie said: "Hao Ran, you are amazing now. Now, the He family has already noticed you, and because of you, He Nanxu's status in the He family has risen."

But Qin Haoran waved his hand: "Don't talk about these things, I'm not interested in getting involved in the filth among those factions in the country."

Qin Haoran is very clear that although the "Taizu" is still alive and can firmly control the domestic situation, this factional struggle will exist in any dynasty, even if it is the "Taizu" who has never been seen before or since. Such a situation cannot be avoided, and the struggle between factions has already begun to rise.

After all, the country has already been defeated, and the founding heroes who followed the "Taizu" to make contributions have also begun to seek the benefits they deserve, and once interests are involved, conflicts are easy to arise.

In his "previous life", Qin Haoran had heard some Hongmiaozheng "****" say that the ten-year rape was actually related to the conflict of interests between different factions.

And Qin Haoran also knows that a powerful interest group like the He family will definitely be involved in that kind of interest struggle behind it, and the water in it is also very deep, Qin Haoran has no interest in getting involved.
