The destruction of the western Moore tribe left an unforgettable impression on the tribes on the East African coast. Apart from the charred corpses, there was not a single trace of living beings in the grassland that had been bombarded by the white phosphorous bombs.
The grassland fire caused by this was extinguished by rain three days later.
If it was in the eyes of these tribal people before, the Asians walking on the streets of Mombasa were like sheep walking on two feet. However, now no one dared to look directly at Future Development's fleet, and no one dared to stop in the middle of the road to ask for tolls from these ruthless characters.
After returning to the Lake Victoria development zone, Feng Yuan didn't wait too long. The Steel Tooth Tribe sent Wizard Lusambo as an emissary. He only expressed regret for the conflict between Future Development and the western Moore tribe, but did not say anything about the eight white phosphorus bombs.
Future Development continued to farm, and the Steel Tooth Tribe collected taxes annually. For a time, the two sides were at peace.
In fact, part of the reason why the western Moore tribe attacked Future Development's base was because of the local companies that operated cement and other building materials, as well as the local tribes that raised slaves to farm, were jealous of the profits Future Development obtained from them.
For example, the Water Lizard Tribe, in addition to the fact that Future Development didn't purchase cement from them, their tribe also raised tens of thousands of slaves and owned a large piece of fertile land in the lake area northwest of Mombasa.
Because of the emergence of the Lake Victoria development zone, their crops gradually depreciated, so it would be strange if they weren't anxious. Anyway, NAC didn't care about the price reduction of crops. The cheaper the food, the better. It meant that the value of industrial products on NAC's side would be higher in trade. Future Development wanted food to become cheaper and cheaper, and then when paying taxes, the same amount of military funds could be exchanged for more food.
Anyway, apart from some of the food they produced to suppress the food price in Mombasa, most of it was shipped to NAC or NAC's overseas colonies.
These tribes that couldn't even assemble a complete set of steel farming tools naturally didn't want to compete fairly with Future Development's mechanized farming. Therefore, the Water Lizard Tribe came up with a crooked idea. They joined forces with the western Moore tribe to launch an attack on the Lake Victoria development zone and finally kidnapped hostages in exchange for ransom.
Now, the chief of the Water Lizard Tribe could only rejoice that they didn't get a share of the ransom. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been just the Western Moore Tribe that had been bombed that night, but also the instigators like them.
After a week of anxiety, the chief of the Water Lizard Tribe finally calmed down when he saw that Future Development didn't have any intention to trouble them. As for those "unruly" Asians, he no longer wanted to provoke them.
Those people were simply a bunch of devils.
This point of view had already been deeply ingrained in the hearts of most tribes …
"If we want our granary to be stable, Mombasa must be in chaos." Sitting in the office of Future Building, Jiang Chen looked at Xiaorou standing in front of him humbly asking for advice, smiled, and continued, "And if you want Mombasa to be chaotic, the easiest way is to make the entire Africa chaotic."
"The whole of Africa is in chaos?" Xiaorou tilted her head. "Isn't Africa chaotic enough?"
"It's not enough." Jiang Chen shook his head. "Although there are still conflicts between large and small tribes in Africa, the entire African Union is stable. You can notice that the two small tribes under the Steel Tooth Tribe may fight because of the water problem between the two lands, but there is almost no conflict between the Steel Tooth Tribe and several neighboring large tribes of the same level. "
"It does seem to be the case. In the territory of the Steel Tooth Tribe, you can't see the people of the Giant Axe Tribe in the north … I heard the manager over there say so." Sun Xiaorou nodded thoughtfully. "What good will it do us if they fight?"
"Of course." Jiang Chen smiled and continued, "If the Steel Tooth Tribe and the Giant Axe Tribe fight, then our position will be critical. First of all, Chief Du Amang will not offend us because the armed forces in the development zone are not weak. Secondly, both sides will please us because only from our hands can they buy reliable arms. "
Africa also had a large number of weapons and equipment from the north of the Mediterranean Sea. After more than 20 years, most of these weapons were already old. Because of frequent use and lack of good maintenance, the more advanced the equipment, the higher the failure rate.
Jiang Chen did not rule out that these indigenous people had weapons not inferior to the NS-90 robot, but how much combat power these weapons could exert became a very interesting probability problem. NAC could steadily provide high-quality weapons at a fair price. If the local situation became chaotic, then arms dealers from Asia would definitely become the target of the natives' flattery.
After listening to Jiang Chen's words, Xiaorou's eyes lit up and she immediately asked.
"But, how can we make them chaotic?"
"Sell them weapons and let their ambitions expand with their strength. The violent gene itself is in their bones. We don't need to provoke the relationship between them. We just need to give them the tools to kill, and they will naturally move in the direction we want them to move. "
In the African prairie that followed the law of the jungle, diligent farming itself was a contemptible behavior. In the eyes of almost all tribes, the Moxa tribe was their role model. Only the strong were qualified to be worshipped by others.
The truly powerful tribes would not actively engage in any production. They relied on hunting, gathering, and slave farming to feed their people. They robbed survival materials and weapons from the hands of weak tribes and rapidly expanded like a rolling snowball.
It was also based on this abnormal "worship of the strong" culture that the Africans who occupied the last pure land on the wasteland had not made any achievements so far. In addition, in the rich forest, there were always delicious fruits to be found. Without the urgency of survival, they would not work hard.
And in fact, this was the case.
In Mombasa, only the lowliest tribal people would choose to work in the factory. It was not that there was no factory, but there was no factory that did not operate only once every few days.
"It's not enough to just pull in a few tribes that aren't allied with us. We'll pull in the Southern African Union on the island of Madagascar to the south. First, we'll dump a few hundred boxes of arms on them. Fortunately, this will make the situation even more chaotic. You can discuss with other employees in the company how to do it. If you don't understand, you can also discuss with your sister Shiyu. "Jiang Chen smiled.
"Can't I ask you? I think your suggestion is very useful, "Xiaorou said with a smile.
"There's no need to ask me for this kind of trivial matter." Jiang Chen waved his hand. "I believe in your ability. It's impossible that you can't solve this."
Xiaorou playfully stuck out her tongue and left the office.
After the office door closed, Jiang Chen rubbed his sore eyebrows, picked up the document on the table, and leaned back in his chair.
Since solving the problem of the UA, his life did not become idle. Instead, it unexpectedly became more and more fulfilling.
In other words, there seemed to be more and more things for him to worry about.
Whether it was the trans-Pacific "World Dollar" currency system or the salvage work of the Sventovet, troubles always came to him one after another, although some of them were self-inflicted.
"Has the ice cutting project started?"
Jiang Chen glanced at the beginning of the document and said a few words to himself. His eyes inadvertently looked up from the document and absentmindedly fell on the floor-to-ceiling window in the direction of Coro City.
He still remembered at the beginning, Future Building was located on the outskirts far from the city center, and Coro City could not be seen from here. As the boundaries of the city continued to expand, the outline of the city was getting closer and closer to the building.
Jiang Chen was lost in his thoughts as he looked at Coro City. Such a thought suddenly appeared in his mind.
He didn't know what it would look like in a few years …
