A week later, Donner came to the door again. Although he was not injured this time, his spirit became more and more depressed. Not only had he not showered for several days, he was smelly, and he had not even changed his clothes.
"Mr. Shepard, just tell me, how much does Shadow Company need?"
"Ah, Mr. Donner, what do you mean? What do we want?"
Tang Na looked at the innocent-looking Shepard with complicated eyes, and in the end, he could only nod helplessly.
"I need to officially hire Shadow Company to ensure BHP Company's mining operations in the Suwada Valley!"
"ha?"
Shepard waved, and the guard on the side brought two cups of freshly brewed instant coffee. He pushed one cup to Donner and picked up the other cup and took a sip slowly.
"Mr. Downer, do you know what you are talking about?"
"I know what I'm talking about, and I hope to hire your company to protect our mining!"
"Then you first need to explain, what does this mining refer to?"
The mining of a mineral resource is not something that can be done by just pressing the right button of a farmer in the game. It is a long process, starting from survey to putting into production. It takes more than ten years for the distant ones, and two or three years for the recent ones. year, if bhp really wants to sign it, it will be a long-term contract, and the most special thing about mercenaries is that they cannot owe wages and must settle on time, just like Shepard, directly on the first of every month Cash was flown in from Kinshasa to be paid.
As for what will happen if you sign a mercenary contract, it’s very simple. Either prepare money or prepare a car. The former can calm the mercenary’s anger, and the latter can help you run away. But if you don’t run away, then you Wait to die!
“BHP’s survey of the Suwada Valley has been completed in the past few years. A considerable part of the mineral deposits in this area are open-pit, so mining is not difficult. In fact, our only resistance is our opponents! "
"You should understand the strength of Francois's men. If we help you, we will definitely have a conflict with them!"
"Yes, so just give me a number. As long as it's not too outrageous, given my authority, I can agree to it!"
"Well, it's easy to just give a number, but first I want you to understand that we get money on a monthly basis, and it doesn't matter if we owe you an hour a day. In addition, food and accommodation must be guaranteed!"
"I see!"
"No, you don't understand. What I mean is that if there is a situation of unpaid wages, we will immediately give up the contract and turn around and leave!"
"Then I also ask that you don't slack off at all in your daily work!"
"That's natural. You can ask Jean Reso from Standard Oil. My people have taken over the security work of Standard Oil for almost two months. What happened to him there?"
"Well, if you've said all you have to say, make an offer!"
Tang Na's intention was very clear. He could provide the money, but the problem must be solved by Shepard! "
"What's the price?"
Shepard hesitated at this moment. He was not worried about failure or casualties. After all, there is always a shortage of people fighting for money. He just wanted a number to ensure that he would be in a position that everyone could accept. , In this way, it will not only make the British resentful for a lifetime, but also ensure sufficient income to maintain operation.
"Standard Oil offered us US$750,000 for a six-month contract. In addition, the Ministry of Defense also gave us a batch of supplies and fuel supplies. This translates into a daily expenditure of US$5,000. As for yours, I will offer you US$8,000." !”
"240,000 a month, this price is OK!"
Donner nodded and accepted. The quality of the copper ore in the river valley cannot be said to be the best, but it is still a rich ore. In addition, a considerable part of it is an open-pit deposit, and the cost of mining will be much smaller. As long as the mining goes well, then The rich returns are enough to cover all these expenses.
"Okay, in three days, I will formally sign the contract!"
"Yes, in addition, I hope my people can go to the Sudawa Valley to survey the terrain now!"
"No problem, but you'd better bring more people with you, it's not a peaceful place!"
Tangner felt reassured, and his pace was much more relaxed when he left. If the civilian government didn't pay attention to the life and death of their hard-working enterprises outside, why would he have come to find mercenaries.
Moreover, he is an American!
Thinking of this, Downer couldn't help but feel sad. When did the European alliance, which should be as close as a family, start fighting brothers and fighting against each other? Why didn't the good brothers on the European continent refuse to give the good brothers in Britain a way to survive?
This is all forced!
When he thought about the upcoming conflict between Americans and good European brothers, Donner felt even more desolate, and his mouth even deformed.
"Have you really considered the bhp contract?"
"Well, after all, eating somewhere is not a meal, and whose money you earn is not money?"
"But we are short of manpower!"
Plomri spread his hands. Shadow Company currently requires three firepower teams just for the escort mission of Standard Oil, and this includes rotation, which directly uses up almost two-thirds of the personnel.
"If you don't have enough manpower, just recruit them. You write letters to your old comrades, and I'll send them back directly by airmail. It doesn't matter if you're older, but you must have some skills, and we still have two recruiting worlds! "
"Conscription World?"
"Yes, Korea and Vietnam. Look at those Vietnamese people. They are all ruthless people. If they are like this, then wouldn't those sog guys be even more ruthless? If there is a chance, we must recruit a few!"
"But the quality of those Korean soldiers is not uniform!"
"Our opponents are not necessarily any better. The training received by those black uncles is as formal as the Koreans. At least those we recruited have served for dozens of months. They can read and write. Some people can understand English commands and have no problem communicating in daily life!”
"Well, I feel now that it would be weird if you don't bring thousands of Koreans to fight in Africa in the future!"
"After all, the cost of human resources in the United States is too high. Recruiting some technical soldiers is enough. Lao Pu, mercenaries with a basic salary of twenty dollars a month are really a bargain!"
At this moment, Shepard wanted to imitate the famous military strategist.
Mother Xipi, give me another 100,000 yuan!
"Then what if we have a head-on conflict with those mercenaries because of this?"
"That would be easier. Anyone who stands in my way will die!"
Although Shepard still had a smile on his face when he said this, Plomri could feel the killing intent that even smelled of blood. He knew very well that Shepard's words were definitely not just words. !
