Although Shepard raised prices and created a monopoly, leaving mining companies with no choice, he was indeed a conscientious entrepreneur. Since starting his career at Shadow Company, he has carried out not hundreds but dozens of security operations. Some of these operations were carried out by small groups, and some were carried out by detachments, but there were no problems.
With such a good reputation, Shepard should increase its prices, but if something goes wrong, it doesn't matter. Shepard had long ago found an unlucky guy from the Self-Defense Forces to be the head of the logistics unit. He is very skilled in bowing.
Since there was no choice, many mining companies could only hold their noses and sign contracts with Shadow Company, and Shepard did not forget to add a monthly salary condition to the contract. Although the mining companies were dissatisfied with this, There was no choice at all, and the monthly settlement would be a financial problem, so in the end, everyone had to bite the bullet and sign a one-year contract with Shepard.
But there are always exceptions. For example, United Mining, a giant mining company that occupies almost half of the country in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, ignored Shadow Company's offer. On the one hand, it was because Shepard still held about thirty United Mining employees. The two sides did not reach an agreement on the security personnel. On the other hand, they did not trust Shadow Company to work for them. Therefore, Shepard waited for several days to sharpen his knife and did not wait until United Mining came to his door to kill him. But he was so depressed!
"Brother, I came to the Democratic Republic of the Congo to make money. Whoever has money in this place, of course, the government has money. But the government's attitude has made money away from the Congress. Then we can only settle for the next best thing and make money from enterprises!"
"But we have already earned it!"
Plomri was very puzzled by Shepard's dissatisfaction. Currently, Shadow Company has reached cooperation agreements with almost nineteen mining companies and other commercial companies. They need to dispatch almost 160 combat personnel to take charge of the near future. Hundreds of heavy-duty trucks and the security of several mining camps. If these benefits are added up, the balance can immediately allow a person to realize the American dream!
"What a waste of money. We have to pay 400,000 for the pension alone. And have you forgotten that we have a big guy to support?"
"???"
Plomri immediately realized that Shepard was talking about the Black Fish. This ocean-going cargo ship needs several American Dreams for one refill of fuel. In addition, the company also has Knight's package of projects to be carried out in the United States. It can be It is said that excluding these projects that currently do not require spending money, the company will naturally make some profits, but once they are all added, the income will still not be enough to fill this big hole.
"Belgium has no eyesight at all!"
Plumli instantly changed his attitude and cursed with Shepard.
"So what should we do? Come to the house for consultation?"
"No, we should use our brains at this moment!"
Shepard shook his head. Although he wants to make money, he also pays attention to the way to make money. Kneeling to make money is not his style. Standing to make money is not his style. He wants others. Kneel down and beg him to make the money standing up!
"Then how do we make them kneel down and beg us?"
"At this time, we can only turn to our good French friend, Francois!"
Shepard clicked on the map hanging on the wall and said.
“Think about what the French would do in this situation?”
So what will the French do?
European and American countries colonized the five continents and seven oceans of Asia, Africa, and Latin America. In addition to their powerful military forces, they also had their own set of operating concepts. Among them, the British philosophy was to fish from the lake sustainably, treat guests to dinner, behead people in public, and accept them as dogs. The advantage of taking measures in parallel is that it can maintain long-term stability and continuous output in colonies. For example, India has been nourishing the British Empire for hundreds of years. Even in the 21st century, it is still like The crow returned the favor and contributed to Britain, and even sent Indians to serve as Prime Minister of the British.
Of course, this approach is not without its disadvantages. It takes a long time and the results are slow. One generation plants trees and the next generation can eat the fruits. However, the French and Belgians like quick results, that is, Tata Kai. Anyway, the manpower in the colonies is like leeks. , no matter how they harvested, they could not finish harvesting. In the process, the French gradually found a pretty good solution, that is, fighting each other between the left and right hands. In fact, it was a balance in the colony, and the factions fought against each other in a game, commonly known as the Three Dancing on an egg.
If the ruling party is obedient, then fine. If not, then let the opposition party stage an armed coup, kill the ruling party, and then let the opposition party come to power. Once the opposition party has problems, then the process will be repeated.
Although this operation is shameless, it is very effective. Of course, Shepard does not want to learn this trick. Although he really wants to try it, it is not impossible given the current strength of Shadow Company. After all, when the Libyan Colonel Kadzo came to power, There are fewer men than him.
But for now, he just wants to build a monopoly and be a local snake. Mid-level and high-level tasks such as coups should wait until he is stronger.
What Shepard wants to learn is naturally the French way of cultivating pirates to respect themselves. United Mining ignores Shadow Company because it just feels that its strength is enough to cope with the current difficulties, so it will be easy to handle.
"Leave a message to the outside world. Francois is running away with a gun. He is suspected of taking revenge on some old friends from the past. We don't know his whereabouts yet!"
"But isn't that guy still repenting in the water prison?"
"That's why I asked you to release the news. As long as everyone knows that this guy escaped from our hands!"
Shepard said nonchalantly.
Next he has to sing a double act, but the one who gets beaten may not be too willing, but so what, he now has guns, cannons and money, so the other party has to be willing even if he doesn't want to.
"Well, by the way, give the police chief three hundred yuan and ask him to send out the wanted warrant!"
"And then, we are short of French speakers!"
Plumlee already knew what Shepard wanted to do. They had done so many things to frame the blame and take the blame. It could even be said that they were very skilled at it.
"No one speaks French?"
Shepard was immediately worried about the poor cultural quality of his men. They didn't even master eight foreign languages. How could these guys have the nerve to become mercenaries?
What, he only knows four doors, so that’s fine!
But the fact that no one speaks French is really a big problem!
Shepard sighed helplessly. If this is the case, then he won't pretend anymore!
"Pick me five good players, and I'll go into battle myself! Then pick me some fal rifles that are good enough!"
