The two chapters are combined, one is the guarantee update, and the other is 420 monthly tickets plus updates.

——————

In the conference room on the first floor of the base.

A conference on territorial development is being held.

Today's territories already contain nearly 80,000 square kilometers of land in the entire occupied area. Even in China, it is also a large province.

However, the population of this territory is not very good. All residents in the territory have received their ID cards and household registration fronts. According to the statistics of the established Civil Affairs Bureau, there are currently more than 2.7 million legal residents in the territory.And in the two or three months, a large number of refugees have poured into the territory. According to incomplete statistics, the number of these refugees has reached at least 800,000.

According to the data provided by the base, the current number of legal residents in the territory is the same as the number counted by the Civil Affairs Bureau, but the popular sentiment index is currently less than 60. In other words, nearly half of the people have not met Li Lan and the territory. Very supportive.

This is also common sense. After all, the construction within the territory has only just begun for two months. Many people have not yet felt the benefits of the territory. Naturally, there is no strong feeling of belonging.Moreover, this data on popular sentiment is only an overall statistic. The 700,000 residents in the gossip city have absolute support for Li Lan.

The residents of Bosasso also have considerable supporters for Li Lan, and the spread of the popular sentiment index has reached less than 60, that is, there are many people who are not satisfied with Li Lan.

However, Li Lan also believes that over time, things like popular sentiment will naturally rise, because he has never wanted to harm the interests of Somalis.Of course, for those guys who are ill-intentioned and secretly propagate malicious public opinion, Li Lan kills one by one.

Don't worry about not being able to find it out. There are military dogs in every village, and Li Lan is not afraid of people who want to make ghosts.In the past two months, hundreds of people have been spotted by military dogs, followed by arrests, interrogations, and gunshots.

The residents of Bagua City, with the support of Farah and Muhammad, are also constantly promoting that documentaries are broadcast in turn in the territory, in order to achieve the effect of gathering people's hearts.

"Since the end of the war, the reconstruction of Bosasso has started immediately. After a little over two months, we have rebuilt a large number of houses in Bossasso and repaired some partially damaged houses. So far Eighty percent of the residents of Bosasso have already moved back to their original places, and the housing problem of another 20 percent will be resolved within the next three months."

"The port of Bosasso has been reorganized and expanded. Now there are freighters calling at each day and trade is recovering quickly. However, these freighters are currently basically coming from China, Iran, Pakistan, Russia and some non-NATO countries. NATO countries have passed trade bans against us, and even want to pass the United Nations to impose trade sanctions and other measures on us, but this resolution has not been passed. And NATO member states are now only unilaterally ordering the ban on bilateral trade. However, the influence of these countries on our trade will not be long before, led by China and Russia, will be quickly leveled out, and it is expected to grow."

"The latest batch of grain that China supports us has all arrived, and it has been stored in the underground grain storage warehouse in Bagua City. According to the commander's instructions, we did not pay Zhonghua and the other party did not discuss this matter. It is recorded that this batch belongs to the fourth batch of grain, totaling 600,000 tons, and the Chinese side has also sent the next batch of grain delivery plans and schedules. Within three months, there will be a batch of 600,000 tons in total. Food arrived."

"In the territory, as of yesterday, more than 850,000 victims have been taken in. Today's rainy season continues to be dry. In a few months, the number of people directly affected by the disaster has reached 4 million, and there are also refugee camps in Ethiopia. The phenomenon of unsustainable emergence. Due to our great success in policy advocacy and public opinion building, many refugees from Ethiopia and central Somalia have rushed here. In addition, refugees from Somaliland and Puntland are expected to be in In the next six months, the number of refugees arriving in the territory will exceed one million. By then, will we be able to accept nearly two million refugees? This requires detailed statistics."

...

There are many people sitting in the conference room at this moment. In addition to the original Muhammad and Farah, there are many new faces. Some of them are Somalis who have good management skills and meet the standards of loyalty and personal quality. In some cases, Li Lan specially transferred some soldiers with management capabilities to government departments.

After all, the army needs to be built, and the development of the territory must be kept up. Otherwise, a great imbalance will inevitably occur. Then, what will he use to feed the army, and who will support the army and support him?

Over the past year or so, Farah has gone from initial cooperation to now, just like Muhammad, willingly staying under Li Lan's hands as a qualified economic supervisor.Among the many people in the conference room, two or three were Farah's original capable men, and the remaining two or three were promoted by Mohammedi.The remaining ten or twenty people were all professional soldiers under Li Lan's command.

Some of them are spies, some are mobilized soldiers, and some are engineers. Most of them come from the two units of Chinese soldiers and American soldiers.According to Li Lan’s criteria for external selection, apart from these people, the remaining six Somalis are all qualified.

In fact, Li Lan never intended to reject the Somalis. After all, building a country requires talents from all aspects, and grassroots management also needs many people. Li Lan cannot all use Red Police soldiers.After all, the stall has grown, and the demand for personnel has also increased. The Red Police soldier Li Lan, who retired due to injury, only made up for the shortage, so that their abilities can be fully utilized.

For the selection of Somalis, the first thing to consider is character and loyalty, and the rest is ability and talent.For more than a year, only these six people have been able to enter Li Lan’s eyes. The rest, those who are loyal and poor in character, will not be used by Li Lan. Those who are initially qualified are also due to abilities. , In the grassroots practice.

Farah originally had a lot of assets in Bosasso, and he also trained a lot of talents when he was abroad. Therefore, for targeted talent selection, the people he trained are basically selected, and there are a few very capable individuals. So, Li Lan is also very much looking forward to seeing them.They are also eligible to participate in some important large-scale meetings.

After the first batch of students from the Somali University he established, many people will be flooded into government departments.However, Li Lan is not worried. Their teacher is a retired soldier from the Red Police. He is not worried about loyalty. There are also military dogs. The military dogs cannot detect minor problems, but it involves the territory and Li. The safety of Arashi and the residents cannot escape the insight of military dogs.This is also one of the guarantees. At least Li Lan can use these people with confidence.

At the beginning of the meeting, the person in charge of various things first reported the situation, and then waited for Li Lan's judgment.

Li Lan also keeps a lot of attention on the development of the territory. Apart from building the army, he also needs to understand the implementation of each policy of the territory and formulate a general development policy. The rest is to pay attention to the construction of people’s livelihood, and The hearts of the people in the territory are floating.

Today’s meeting is just a regular meeting every week to listen to the basic development of the territory.In the previous meetings like this, there were no important things, but Li Lan would use today’s meeting to determine some things.But he needs to resolve all these common things first, and then deal with the business.

After listening to all the reports, Li Lan said: "The construction work of Bosasso needs to be accelerated. This speed has not met my expectations. Now the cement shipped from Bosasso port every day is enough for us to continue. Expansion of construction capacity, three months is too long, we can no longer let our residents live in tents. Therefore, the construction department must find ways to improve efficiency. Need equipment, need people, directly report to me, I will Solve in the fastest time.

As for the port trade, we must pay attention to welcoming them at the same time. There must be no negligence. Every freighter entering the port needs to be familiar with the above cargo and the owner.Everything we purchase must be delivered to relevant departments as soon as possible.No one can have numb and lazy thoughts, and passing it occasionally is likely to lead to extremely bad consequences.

At the same time, pay special attention to the transportation of machinery and equipment. I hope that outsiders will know about matters that should be kept secret.Whether you are directly responsible or those under your hands, I hope you can remember our confidentiality policy. I don't want to see you being invited to the confidentiality bureau one day."

These words are not for Li Lan to aimlessly, but to avoid any unnecessary mistakes.What was the former port of Bosasso?It is the largest food import port, and the port that all international arms dealers like to call.A lot of Bosasso's taxes actually come from grain merchants and arms dealers. Why Awell can establish such a powerful force at the beginning is derived from the filial piety of these arms dealers and grain merchants.

One ton of grain can be sold for five or six thousand dollars in Somalia, which is several times more expensive than international grain prices because of this relationship.

The arms dealers have made this the largest landing point for arms to enter the North African market. The profits of the arms market in South Sudan and Somalia can reach hundreds of millions of dollars each year.The main source of arms is the port of Bosasso.

Therefore, this is definitely not a trivial matter for Li Lan. He does not want any more arms to pass through the Port of Bosasso. Although this will cost him a lot of money, he has no hesitation.As for those international grain merchants, Li Lan is very welcome. He is also willing to buy grain from them, but the price must be in accordance with the international grain price, and cannot exceed 30% at most.

At the same time, Li Lan was also worried that some countries would use the port of Bosasso to cause trouble.When the time comes, it is not impossible for a cargo ship full of munitions to dock at the port and use it to make trouble.After all, he is already on the cusp of the storm now, what should be avoided as much as possible is to avoid.

If there is no fear, the Black Hawk fighters at the base have already taken off for normal training.

It was precisely because of Li Lan's order that the Port of Bosasso gradually depressed.However, will Li Lan worry that no one will return from Bosasso Port?The facts are just the opposite. He hopes that fewer ghosts and monsters will come, and normal trade, or the legal trade he has set, will come and go.And he is confident that he is not far from the real prosperity of Bosasso.

Moreover, a Bosasso is not enough, and Bagua City also needs a port.

However, Li Lan did not intend to use manual labor to construct the port of Bagua City.In addition to the slow time, he also does not yet have the ability to build a port that can dock large ships. With the technology, engineers are fully competent, but the equipment problem is not so easy to solve.

At the same time, Li Lan also plans to build a military port. The site selection for the two ports has been completed, and there is no time.Before that, Li Lan had to start some preparatory work, remodeling the selected address, in order to accommodate the port construction work as much as possible.

Especially for military ports, it is necessary to carry out terrain modification work in advance. After all, military ports are different from ordinary ports, and there are more things to pay attention to.

There is another point, that is the road problem. Whether it is a military port or an ordinary port, a smooth road channel is needed to quickly circulate goods.And for the economic form of Bagua City, Li Lan also plans to build two large container cargo ports. After the two are completed, they will become a whole.In addition, there are special terminals dedicated to transporting oil and natural gas, which also need to be constructed separately.In this way, according to the latest port construction plan of Bagua City, there will be three ports and one military port. For this, Li Lan needs to build five wharves with different functions.

The formulation of this port plan is based on the base construction capabilities. The base can build many types of ports, which is enough to meet Li Lan's needs in all aspects.

As for Bosasso, when the first sub-base vehicle arrives, Li Lan will first expand the port of Bosasso. Although Bosasso is already a major economic city in Somalia, the port is also the two major ports in Somalia. One, but in Li Lan's eyes, the current port of Bosasso is really not that good.In China, basically every coastal city like this can find one or two ports, and the daily cargo throughput is also extremely limited.When the family business gets bigger in the future, it will definitely be expanded, and this matter will soon be on the agenda.

"In terms of Chinese food, you can collect as much as you need. If they say that they need us to pay for the currency, they will report to me immediately. However, I believe that such a thing will not happen, so you are bold and relieved. You can collect as much as you give. It’s also the problem of drought in the rainy season. Even if you come to a few million tons, you can safely pull it back. I will handle everything.

As for the issue of refugees, we should not accept one by one. The current food in our territory is imported except for meat.There is also a certain limit to the number of refugees that can be in Ghana. I say this, not that I don’t accept refugees, but that I need reasonable overall planning. It is not based on a relief heart that caused more than two million residents in the territory to fall into no food. The situation.

According to the current long-term plan of China to support our grains, within half a year, we can still receive 1.2 million grains.And Zhonghua will support our group of agricultural experts and excellent seeds within six months.

Now let’s make a statistics. Based on the supply of 1.2 million tons of grain in half a year, how many people can we take in?Then decide how many refugees to take in."

In terms of China’s food support, Li Lan has never mentioned it to the country. However, in the past two months, two batches of millions of tons of food have been delivered, and in the next six months, there will be one hundred more deliveries. Two hundred thousand tons.Listening to Zeng Zhihua's tone, as long as Li Lan still needs it, as long as he speaks, the grain will definitely be supported in the country.

Li Lan is very clear that China has always been a major grain importer, and it was also a major grain exporter before, but in recent years, many exports have been restricted.But sending the food over without words like this makes Li Lan often do not know what to say.

He needs food, a lot of food.According to Li Lan's original plan, it was to buy from China.But the result of the matter is that he does not need to speak at all.At the beginning, Li Lan wanted to make a satellite phone call to thank the Chief One in person.He understands that there is only one leader who can make such a decision.After all, one shot is 2.2 million tons, which is converted into the comprehensive domestic food price in China. The value of these foods has reached several billion Chinese yuan.

Later, Li Lan finally did not dial the satellite phone signal recorded by his assistant.He thinks that the word thank you is too light, because he will use practical actions to repay the country in the future, rather than lightly.

As for the issue of refugees, Li Lan really wants to take in these refugees. After all, these refugees will develop into his supporters in the future, and they are most helpful to improve his status in the hearts of Somalis.Over the past year or so, one of the truths that Li Lan understands most is that what is taken in advance must be given first.

At present, there are more than two million residents in the territory, accounting for nearly 25% of the entire population of Somalia. As long as he receives another two million, nearly half of the Somalis will be gathered in the territory.As long as he can get the nearly half of Somalis to support him, his resistance in Somalia will be greatly reduced in the future.

Therefore, whether it is for humanitarian reasons or preparations for the future, Li Lan will continue to take in refugees, but it is not endless. After all, the territory's capacity is limited now.The so-called capacity is not land. After all, more than 80,000 square kilometers, accommodating several million people is completely no problem. The capacity limit is reflected in food.

At any time, Li Lan needs to ensure that there are more than one million tons of grain storage in the territory. This is already a figure that is very close to the limit. Therefore, in the next six months, this 1.2 million grain , You need to supply food consumption in the territory.Of course it also includes helping refugees.

However, there is one thing that Li Lan has obviously not calculated in detail, and that is how much of the 1.2 million tons of grain is.Next, as soon as Farah fell behind in Li Lan's voice, he gave an immediate answer, allowing Li Lan to realize the true value of the grain.

"One thousand two hundred thousand tons multiplied by each ton is one thousand kilograms. Excluding 0.5 kilograms per person per day, this 1.2 million tons of grain can satisfy five million people for 480 days. Needs."

"Isn't it wrong?" Li Lan was taken aback after hearing it. He hadn't calculated these things for a long time. Obviously, he hadn't calculated them clearly.Over the past few days, Li Lan has been focusing on the development of the military, and on the issues of people’s livelihood, he only thought about some general principles and detailed things, but did not go to in-depth understanding.

"Absolutely not. These numbers are the result of my calculations many times." In contrast to Li Lan, Farah is very concerned about Somalis. He hopes to save one more Somalis every day. Naturally, he is very clear about these things.

"Is the 0.5 kilograms of food sufficient for your calculation?" Li Lan frowned, eating one catty of food a day, which is obviously not enough, but before Farah could answer, he said again: "However, just follow this data. Let’s do it, anyway, if this one million and two million tons is used on five million people, it can last for eight months. It’s enough."

"What does the sir mean?" Muhammad said.

"What I mean is very simple. We will accept as many refugees as there are. It can be regarded as doing my part." Li Lan directly decided.

"I'll thank you for all the Somalis." Hearing Li Lan's words, Mohammedi and Farah and the other six Somalis in the conference room quickly got up and bowed to Li Lan to thank you.

Seeing them all excited, Li Lan didn't know what to say for a while.

As a patriot, Li Lan also naturally appreciates those patriots, even if the love is not the same country.Because as a citizen, you can be dissatisfied with the regime of the country, but you have to be patriotic and love your nation.(Gorgeous solemnly declares: This is the protagonist’s point of view, and does not represent Gorgeous's opinion. All criticisms that have caused it have nothing to do with Gorgeous. If you have different opinions, please go to Somalia to communicate with Li Lan face to face. Also, remind everyone: Bring your own air tickets and buy a few more personal insurances. Huali will not be responsible for any accidents.)

Perhaps she saw her own shadow in the eyes of these people. Li Lan pressed her hands to indicate that they could sit down and said, "In fact, we are all the same kind of people."
