King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer

Joe Ga's plan is grand, but honestly, the trade volume cobbled together by a few poor countries isn't even a fraction of the international trade of the giants...

He specifically targets those corners where the business giants aren't willing to venture, using modern advanced computer software technology to integrate valuable products from those poor countries.

This approach might take many years to yield significant profits, but this model naturally stimulates the development aspirations of those poor countries.

Somalia's annual total exports amount to about 400 million US Dollars, with the main export countries being Yemen, Oman, and the United Arab Emirates in the Middle East.

As long as Bossosa can be secured, Joe Ga can use advanced software technology to help the Somali Federal Republic unleash their export potential.

Once they start making money, experience the benefits of stable trade channels, see the hope of reversing long-term trade deficits, and repaying international bank debts, they will naturally choose to expand production...

This is a simple economic virtuous cycle after an expansion of the demand side!

Since taking on the Yemen task, Joe Ga has been pondering how to get Mukalla running, enabling the people there to be self-sufficient.

Providing them with export channels and convenient settlement pathways is an indirect way to guide local people to promote supply-side development.

Construction and development are the hard truths!

Joe Ga wants to provide them with opportunities, not use Shah's 20 billion to support so many people with the backing of major sponsors!

P·B can't gain mineral resource income in Yemen, relying solely on Shah's 20 billion is far from enough for a prolonged struggle, so he planned early on to draw Mukalla into the trade network, to make them self-sufficient.

Fisheries, livestock, port services, a combination of multiple industries, can't feed all of Yemen, but it can definitely support Mukalla and surrounding cities.

However, this trade volume can't satisfy Jia Liang's appetite, so Joe Ga decided to pull Bossosa into the trade network as well.

These two cities located on the north and south of the Gulf of Aden can radiate to two countries and are sure to gather enough goods to fill Jia Liang trade ships.

As long as bilateral trade can be realized, not only will logistics costs be greatly reduced, but the trade volume will be expanded, enabling everyone to make money and be happy.

Moreover, the most important aspect is that this form of trade naturally has a closed nature, one internal electronic trade system integrates the Euro into these countries' financial systems.

And the most bizarre thing is that this trade financial system actually relies on the vast resources from China.

The oil Joe Ga extracted from the Middle East and North Africa, settled in US Dollars through China Bank, converted into goods, then entered the market through exchange, ended up generating Euro trade...

While maintaining the oil dollar, Joe Ga used the network to expand the Euro's influence and found a market for Chinese products.

Once P·B collapses, this bizarre trade network will immediately crumble...

This is absolutely unacceptable to any party in Europe or America!

Once this trade network is established, the EU, America, and China will form a trilateral constraint, and as the trade volume of this network grows, P·B's position will become more solid!

Because once Joe Ga falls, China will certainly take over Jia Liang's trade, at which point oil-for-goods will bypass the US dollar stage, causing America to lose significant seigniorage, possibly even destabilizing the dollar market.

If China then utilizes the inertia of resource sales, leveraging strong industrial capabilities to take over this closed trade network, once they use a convenient electronic trade system for native currency settlement, the EU could suffer tens of billions a year in losses!

It should be noted that the internal trading system is essentially a barter trade model, with P·B in place, there is a financial aspect.

Without P·B, China only needs to convert the trade surplus of these countries into the currency they need, and those tens of billions of Euros in financial transactions would disappear.

Now P·B is essentially working for America, the EU, and China, and if anything happens to Joe Ga, the balance will be instantly disrupted.

Joe Ga aims to utilize the Yemen war for a magnificent transformation!

He wants to use the excuse of having no oil revenue yet wishing to adhere to P·B's development ideals, completing the trade network under the guise of humanitarianism right under the noses of several big brothers.

The internal situation in Yemen is too chaotic, Mukalla is too small, so Joe Ga considered Bossosa from the beginning.

It took Somalia 14 years to complete the presidential election, and after lengthy conflicts, the various warring warlords finally sat down to delineate territories, forming the Somali Federal under UN mediation.

This big poor country has a completely stagnant industry, and the people are extremely impoverished, but long-term chaos inspires a desire for governance. As long as the conditions are sufficient, their export potential can be easily stimulated.

Somalia is not like Yemen, the civil war in Somalia has basically subsided, with the only hassle being the terrorist group Al-Shabaab.

The African Union has long stationed troops in the Somali Federal to assist in combating Al-Shabaab, but to little effect, occasionally getting routed by Al-Shabaab.

If P·B is willing to intervene in Somalia, it would be highly desired by the African Union!

Because Joe Ga's knife always comes with integration capability and is offered at a low price, now the African Union's military contract is fully open to P·B.

However, in the past, Somalia held no value for Joe Ga, and undertaking military operations there was logistically overwhelming, so he had no interest in contracts there.

But now the situation is different. The Yemen agreement will allow P·B to gain a foothold in Mukalla, and with a few Griffin-1s, they can quickly cross the Gulf of Aden to provide air support in Somalia.

With the weather, geography, and people all on Boss Qiao's side, there's no reason for him to refuse the African Union's agreement.

In fact, the African Union agreement had long been in the hands of Boss Qiao. After he took over, he had been maneuvering in secret.

5,000 members of Al-Shabaab crossed the sea to support Al-Qaeda in Yemen, which was secretly pushed by him through Aaron.

This group of people went to Yemen for money and are now trapped there, unable to return home. Sooner or later, P·B will slowly consume them.

Now sending people to accept an invitation to Bossosa, and establishing a military base near the port to assist the government forces in combating the Al-Shabaab people is as simple for P·B as eating and drinking water.

P·B's reputation in Africa makes them naturally trusted!

As long as they establish prestige and gain a firm foothold, P·B can use their formidable military capability, along with high-quality resource input and absorption ability, to establish solid connections with the Somali authorities, and soon that place can become a trade point.

The Somali Federal's pillar industry is animal husbandry. They are the country with the most camels in the world, and their main export destination is the Middle East, and Boss Qiao's trade network, with the Middle East being an important station.

Moreover, Somalia has a large quantity of cattle and sheep, and there's potential to be tapped in their domestic animal husbandry.

Apart from animal husbandry, this unfortunate country also has the longest coastline of all African countries, but due to backward fishing methods, fishery income has never increased.

Boss Qiao asked his brother to build 500 fishing boats, not just for Mukalla, as the docks there cannot accommodate 500 fishing boats.

Boss Qiao intends to use the fishing boats as a breakthrough point, using fishery development as a gift to firmly gain a foothold in Somalia.

The Somali Federal cannot refuse such help. As long as they have any sense, they will respect Boss Qiao greatly.

The current president of the Somali Federal is recognized by the United Nations, and he wants to maintain his position while doing something for Somalia's development, so he needs to cling tightly to Boss Qiao's thigh.

As for those warlords who have carved out their own territories, the outcome of offending Boss Qiao will likely not be too good!

Aaron, far away in America, is one of the first to know about Boss Qiao's plan!

If in the past Aaron envied and resented Boss Qiao in every way, now he can no longer feel jealous.

Because he knows Boss Qiao better than anyone, and knows that although P·B seems to have done many things and fought many wars, all their actions outside Africa revolve around 'humanitarian corridors.'

Boss Qiao has maximized the social, political, economic, and even military influence of the humanitarian corridors...

He fits the humanitarian values established by Europe and America, using more direct means to occupy the moral high ground, garnering support from all sectors of society, while growing the company to a remarkable level.

What astonishes and admires Aaron the most is that Boss Qiao is using resources gained from the outside to the utmost to feed back to Central Africa. He has not only created something from nothing to establish a steel industry chain there but is also promoting the continuous development of industry there.

While everyone's attention is focused on Yemen, the railway repair project south of Sangha Town has already started.

At the same time, the first batch of talents mined from East W have arrived at Crete, where they will make a short stopover before heading to work in Central Africa.

There are a large number of professionals in electricity, chemical, and heavy industries in there!

These people entering Central Africa to work will soon promote secondary development of industries around Sangha Town.

Moreover, according to the information Aaron has received, the talent headhunters organized by the intelligence officer named Thompson are organizing a second batch of talent transfer from East W.

Aaron doesn't really agree with Boss Qiao's approach in Central Africa because it doesn't conform to economic principles, but Boss Qiao's strategic vision and mediation ability demonstrated with the humanitarian corridors truly convince Aaron.

Everyone thought Boss Qiao got lucky and made a fortune by taking on a task; in fact, when he took on the task, he had already thought about the next step and step by step constructed an influence network exclusive to P·B.

While Aaron is still trying to establish his own influence, Boss Qiao, by persistently doing the right things, has made himself important to the world!

There's really no way to say anything, everyone's path is different, and even if Aaron is jealous enough to grind his teeth to powder, he has to pinch his nose and give a thumbs-up and say, 'You are a formidable bastard!'

Joe Ga talked with Aljin for a long time, laying out his ideas about the Somali Federal, and then in Aljin's expression of amazement, sincerely requesting him to help operate, handing over the humanitarian project of the Somali Federal to P·B.

At the same time, Boss Qiao also invited the humanitarian affairs coordination office people to follow those of P·B to Somalia, to supervise and guide humanitarian affairs there in the future, assisting the Somali people to get out of poverty together!

This is almost akin to feeding influence and honor into the mouths of the United Nations humanitarian affairs heads...

Aljin immersed in Boss Qiao's plan remained unsettled for a long time...

He looked at Joe Ga sitting by the window, half of his body bathed in sunlight, and with a long sigh, said, "Hu Lang, you are an amazing person!

P·B will be a great company!"
