Chapter 1407 Golden Crescent

Zaranj, the westernmost town in Afghanistan...

As the town closest to Iran in Balochistan, it is dominated by local Pashtuns and Balochs rather than Afghanistanis or Iranians.

This is the starting point for the CIA to popularize poppy cultivation technology in the 1990s, and it is also the core area of ​​the Golden Crescent drug economy.

Heroine extraction requires not only raw opium, but also a series of chemicals...

High-yield and drought-resistant genetically modified poppy seeds, fertilizers, and processing raw materials, which are things that Afghanistan itself does not have.

Of the more than 30 million people in Afghanistan, one-tenth rely on the heroine industry chain for their livelihood, and most of them are farmers.

But farmers will never get the biggest dividends from the industry chain. The raw opium they grow and extract can only be sold to warlords to support their families at most.

Heroine extraction is a key link for tribal warlords who have mastered the "industrial process" to make money, but they can only be regarded as upstream sellers.

Drug dealers from all over the world, disguised as investors, took over the two links with the highest risk and profit margin, "transportation" and "wholesale", and then the drug trafficking terminals in various countries.

It is basically impossible for Boss Qiao to solve the drug problem in Afghanistan, just as he never mentioned going to Mexico to fight the drug dealers there.

However, the inability to solve the drug problem does not mean that a gap cannot be opened from the drug lords and warlords.

The farmers cannot move, but the drug lords are dead, and the poppies grown by the farmers cannot be sold. As long as the water conservancy projects and land policies can be slightly followed up, they can easily be persuaded to grow more laborious food and vegetables.

"Drug prohibition" is the most important brand on P.B. Boss Qiao has to make achievements when he comes, and he has to do it beautifully.

The United Nations has a relatively rigorous set of standards for evaluating "performance", which may be somewhat different from what most Chinese people imagine...

As the "bottom line", the United Nations wants to see whether people's basic right to survival is guaranteed, not simply banning drugs.

It is not enough to just ban poppy cultivation, you also have to let those farmers have a way to survive.

Otherwise, there may be fewer drug addicts in the world, and fewer people will be harmed by drug circulation, but the unrest caused by farmers' lack of food may have more serious consequences.

If Boss Qiao wants to reduce the damage as much as possible and establish a tough image of P·B drug prohibition, he cannot start from the "source" that is easiest to bully, but must hammer those tribal warlords and those middlemen.

In order to reduce the resistance of local farmers as much as possible, Qiao Liang has had many contacts and negotiations with the Taliban and has made considerable progress.

As mentioned earlier, as long as the Taliban can figure it out, "drug prohibition" is a political sword that can deter regional armed forces for them.

But now they haven't completely mastered the situation...

And according to the information conveyed by Qiao Liang, although the Taliban understood the benefits and were willing to do things according to Qiao Liang's plan, their attitude was a bit too extreme, which made Qiao Liang, a Chinese who regarded drugs as a taboo, a little worried...

So in P.B's first action, Boss Qiao resolutely excluded the Taliban armed forces who were willing to participate...

Musa Suleiman came to Afghanistan for a month. He stayed in Pakistan for a long time in the past, communicating with people in the drug chain through the Internet and phone.

This guy is a typical tyrant, even though he was beaten by Boss Qiao in Italy and lost all his wealth, and he also owed a huge foreign debt.

But when he returned to the Golden Crescent with $200 million in cash, this 'Glory Society' boss quickly regrouped. Not only was he not killed by the creditors, but he regained the creditors' trust and used $200 million to pry a larger drug plate, preparing to operate a super business of more than 200 tons of heroin again.

As a monitor and liaison officer following Musa Suleiman, Al Rawi was sitting in an adobe house, flipping through a list while looking at Musa Suleiman sitting on a worn-out sofa drinking black tea...

"It's not a good idea to put the meeting place in 'Zaranj'. This is the territory of 'Warris', and the personnel are too complicated, which does not meet the needs of our boss."

Musa glanced at Al Rawi and the members of the 'Golden Eagle Force' transferred from Ukraine who were guarding the door. He shook his head slightly and said, "Your boss is pursuing the shock of the first attack. When Taliban bowed to your boss, the display of firepower was not all he pursued...

Now Aqiong Khan is in great chaos, Taliban We are trying to unite most tribes and form a temporary government.

Whoever has the most cash will have the upper hand in the political game of Aqiong Khan in the future. "

Musa shook his head slightly and said, "In fact, I didn't expect it to be so smooth...

The sudden change made these tribal warlords eager to get rid of their heroin stocks. At the same time, because the middlemen withdrew to Pakistan to see the situation, this gave me an opportunity.

15 tribal warlords, 300 tons of drugs, plus a dozen international drug lords waiting at the border of Pakistan...

Taking them down is enough for you to basically pull out the bones of the Golden Crescent drug industry chain, and then it will be easy for your boss to do something. "

After listening to this, Al Rahway looked at Moussa, who seemed to have everything under control, with a smile on his face. He shook his head and said: "You seem to be more concerned than my boss, so I can't help but have some doubts.

Theoretically, as long as these drug dealers are alive, you can play a greater role here, and then use this to seek opportunities to survive..."

Musa listened, took a sip of black tea, sat cross-legged on the sofa, and said with a complicated expression: "I don't want to waste time in Afghanistan, because I can play a greater role in Europe.

The jackal spared my family and he wanted me to die and I accepted it.

However, he underestimated the size of the ‘Ndrangheta’ and the power represented by the organizations that made up the ‘Ndrangheta’.

I owe a lot of money to many people within the 'Ndrangheta. Until these people die, my family will not be able to fully find peace, even with the Jackal's promise.

I have to tell those people that I am still alive, and then go and clear them all out one by one.

It's a dangerous and complicated job, so I'll have a lot of time..."

As he spoke, Musa looked at Al Rahway, and he smiled and said: "We may need to spend a long time together..."

Al-Rawi looked at Musa who was like a puritan, he shook his head in resistance and said: "NO, I will not always be by your side.

I came here because I was familiar with the situation in the Middle East, and my goal was to take over the business here after my boss left. "

Musa was stunned for a moment, then suddenly grinned and said: "You are worried that P.B.'s anti-drug work here is going too smoothly and that your work ability will not be fully demonstrated, so you are so unhappy... "

As he spoke, Musa looked at Al Rahway who nodded calmly. He shook his head in disbelief and said, "I have heard about Jackal's usage habits of intelligence directors, but I really didn't expect that you, as the former regional director of the CIA, To have such an unprofessional idea...

What are the benefits of being the head of Afghanistan’s Khan region?

Apart from the drug trade, there is almost no place to make money here...

Even if Jackal is willing to delegate power, what can you gain from a place that cannot make money? "

Al Rahway smiled and shook his head and said: "All my performances you see now are the biggest gains...

No need to pretend, no need to convince yourself to do dirty things...

I can openly express my ambitions and openly do things that I could not even think of in the past. "

As he spoke, Al-Rawi looked at Musa who had a noncommittal look on his face, and he sneered and said: "People like you will never understand...

The same goes for all those who make a lot of money through crime. In your eyes, all businesses are just transactions, and all you care about is profit.

All costs in the criminal chain are too low for you!

I have met many drug dealers, and you all have one thing in common. You all say that you were forced...

But in fact, I know very well that within the legal framework, your abilities may not even be comparable to that of a street vendor.

You cannot cope with things within the rules, but you will become complacent after making money through drug trafficking, thinking that your abilities are superior to others and that you can control the destiny of others.

You may not know what my surname "Rawai" represents. The Ravi family is a real underground giant that emerged after World War II. They once controlled more than a thousand hospitals in Europe and the United States, and they can make money every year that you, a drug lord, cannot imagine. of money.

Such a family was uprooted by my boss because of challenging the 'rules'...

Only the ignorant will imagine that they can live happily outside the rules. Really capable people have always challenged the rules and created rules within the rules...

You are the ignorant one, and my boss is the one who challenges and creates the rules!

My boss has established a new order in many places, and this 'new order' contains wealth that people like you cannot imagine. "

As he spoke, Al Rahway pointed at the dozens of black suitcases stacked in the room, and said with a sneer: "People like you only want those green papers, and the power converted from those green papers...

So you can never be our boss's opponent, because everyone pursues different things. "

After hearing this, Musa suddenly let out a long sigh and said: "You have been trying to undermine my self-confidence.

Why?

Is there something I did wrong? "

Al Rahway sneered and nodded and said: "You made the scene too big...

Do you really think our boss can’t see what you’re thinking? "
