The conversation between Castei and Shepard only lasted a few minutes. In fact, the two of them had nothing to say. What they talked about was only a verbal agreement and preliminary intentions.
The real decision-makers are still making preparations. Parker has already invited his old Cambridge acquaintances to form a large-scale professional team. These Cambridge students who have read a lot of books are quite rebellious from their old seniors. They like to work against capital countries, so when Parker invited them to provide some development advice to an unknown small African country, these rebellious guys rushed to sign up.
"Our company may not be able to afford the high fees!"
Parker, who was dressed like a weak female secretary, weakly explained to the other party at the party.
Then, these Cambridge students who have their own set of ideas about society waved their hands.
"It is our effort to help the development of Africa, which has been colonized by us for many years, and how can we still be paid? This is all voluntary labor, and you can just take care of food and housing!"
"It's too much to just take care of food and accommodation. Commissions still have to be paid. Although our company is not a big company, it has always paid its wages in a very timely manner. I have also bought the air tickets. When the time comes, it will be up to you. !」
Under Parker's trick, this group of people immediately took the nearest flight to South Africa, then changed planes and took a bus, and finally boarded the Black Cat of the Shadow Company in Madagascar, and then arrived in Grand Comoros island.
When seeing the heavily armed PCs, these elites were not very accustomed to it. It was not until Captain Li, the leader of the alpha squadron who came to pick them up, explained that these guests from the UK felt relieved.
"Not long ago, the people of Comoros overthrew the brutal dictatorship. Although the tyrant is dead, the situation here is not very stable! There are still armed elements wandering in the forest!"
"Then you are?"
"We are part of the people who helped the people of Comoros overthrow the tyrant. Now, we are also responsible for protecting your safety!"
These guys that Parker tricked here have a variety of majors, ranging from agriculture to education, mining to metallurgy, and even several medical majors. When they came, they not only brought various medical supplies, but also brought a variety of medical supplies. There were only a few books, but because there were so many of them, Shepard even found a C54 transport plane from South Africa to deliver them all.
After these guys arrived in Comoros, they immediately plunged into the streets and alleys to start their work.
Check the fertility of the land, detect ingredients, detect rainfall, conduct voluntary medical inspections, distribute medicine, and provide voluntary education. In short, they do everything they can, and these tasks are done in the name of the Shadow Company.
"After all, intellectuals are easy to deceive!"
Seeing the guy who was as busy as a top every day but extremely happy, Shepard could only sigh with emotion.
But their work did help Shadow Company a lot.
Shepard is going to use the spice industry in Comoros as the first breakthrough. In the past, the spice cultivation in Comoros was completely monopolized by Saleh and his family. They purchased spice raw materials at very low prices, and then Resell it and make huge profits.
Shepard had no intention of doing this. He planned to learn from later generations and engage in intensive management. To this end, Shadow Company directly sent the National Defense Force to the countryside to acquire land. Using the army did not mean that Shepard was prepared to plunder. For the land in the hands of civilians, Shepard still gave a very fair price, but for the big landowners, the National Defense Forces were not polite. The price was as harsh as they wanted. If you dare to resist, you are a remnant of Saleh. You must be handcuffed and taken to the police station first. Squat one night!
If I continue to be stubborn, I will use the special courts. Abdullah's special courts are worried that they have no business to do, and they hope to arrest a few more models to demonstrate their impartial and selfless image among the people.
Acquiring land is only the first step. Next, there are standardizing planting techniques, introducing high-yield crop seeds, improving infrastructure, etc. However, these tasks are not urgent because they are the business of the French company.
Shepard takes on the role of Shadow Corporation and the Government of Comoros
An agricultural cooperative company was jointly established, using the acquired land as capital, and a joint company with French investors. The former provided raw materials and the latter was responsible for transportation and processing.
In order to provide stable jobs for farmers who have lost their land, agricultural companies will hire them to grow products and work in factories invested by French companies, and the benefits generated will be equally divided among the three parties according to the ratio of 43 to 40. Moros provides people, Shadow Company provides land, and the French provide money. The division of labor among the three is clear. The Comoros government and Shadow Company will not participate in direct operation and management.
There is nothing you can do about giving four to the French. After all, they have bigger fists, and it is also the price of not caring about everything the Shadow Company has done in Comoros.
However, although it is only three, the income is quite considerable. According to investment expectations, the millions of funds invested by Shepard can be recovered in the first year. After that, Shadow Company can guarantee tens of millions of dollars every year just by relying on three achievements. income.
In addition to taking action in this area, Shepard also appointed the former Presidential Guard Captain who had defected to him to the positions of Minister of Defense and Minister of Transportation. The former required the Comoros Army to uniformly purchase AR rifles and other equipment produced by Knight Ordnance as standard Weapons, the latter directly nationalized the cargo ship originally owned by Saleh, and then used the ship as capital, and combined with the transportation subsidiary of Shadow Company to take charge of Comoros's own transportation industry.
What Shepard did was beyond Abdullah's expectation. The latter thought that Shepard would rely on the people he placed in the government to interfere in Comoros' internal affairs, but Shepard had no interest in those. He kept making money, which made Abdullah think this guy was a bit cute.
After all, who wouldn’t love an umbrella that only engages in making money and not doing politics? Not to mention, without Shadow Company, most of the benefits would end up in the hands of the French, and the benefits they could get would be just a drop in the bucket.
With the establishment of Shadow Company, the French get less money and more money for themselves, which is enough. After all, the colonial relationship is here. The Comoros don't hate the French too much, but they certainly don't want it. They live a good life, so as long as the French suffer losses, they will do this even if they don't benefit!
As a result, in the eyes of many Comorians, Shadow Company has become a conscientious enterprise that considers the local people.
