From arms dealer to king of war

Qiao Jia walked out of the study and saw Eric who was admiring the scenery on the backyard terrace.

This guy has been dealing with the big shot's 'email' issue for the past few days, and now that he suddenly came here, the matter should have come to an end.

Qiao Jia was in a good mood at the moment. He smiled and motioned to Nice to calm down the girls who were a little bit crazy about the secret service operation. Then he poured two glasses of whiskey and took them to the terrace.

Passing a glass to Eric, Qiao Jia extended his hand to invite the guy to sit down on the chair next to him, and then said with a smile: "What's wrong? Is there any good news?"

Eric raised his glass to signal, and then said with a smile: "The matter is over, the two parties have reached an agreement, and now we are waiting for the general election starting next year."

Qiao Jia shook his head after hearing this and said: "We can't get involved in the big shot's affairs. Now that it's over, I want to know what benefits you can get?"

As Qiao Jia looked at the smile in Eric's eyes, he shook his head and said with a smile: "It seems you got what you wanted..."

Eric nodded and said happily: "I was transferred from the position of consultant of the Ministry of Security to the CIA as the intelligence chief of the Afika region.

My focus is on Libya, where I collect intelligence on terrorists and monitor the actions of NATO allies in Libya. "

Upon hearing this, Qiao Jia gave a thumbs up to express his congratulations.

Eric has great political ambitions. The regional director of the CIA sounds like a high-ranking official. In fact, just like the director of the CIA, who is appointed by the president and whose key task is to flatter the president, the so-called 'heads of each CIA region' 'The position is basically the one who comes down to the gilding.

These people are those who need to be familiar with the intelligence operation system to lay the foundation for their future careers as staff members in the Pentagon or the White House, and to become politicians who have real power but do not need to be responsible.

If they are lucky enough to be appreciated by the president or some big shots, they can sit in a position of real power, such as a certain director, a certain minister, etc...

Eric has a very clear plan for his promotion route. He has told Qiao Jia before that his goal is to find a position in the CIA as a springboard, and it is best to be in Afika.

Because the intensity of the conflict there is not high, but because of Libya's geopolitical reasons, its importance is not low. After a few years and getting familiar with the entire operating system, he can return to Washington and become an important staff member of that big shot.

Once that big shot wins the election, as a person who has helped the big shot deal with the dark history and has connections in the CIA, he will naturally be reused.

Looking at Eric's satisfied smile, Qiao Jia smiled and said: "This is indeed good news. My company is in Afika. If you need help with anything, you can tell me directly."

As he said that, Qiao Jia suddenly shook his head and laughed, and said: "You are considered a big shot now, so I should be in need of your help."

After hearing this, Eric shook his head and said with a smile: "In today's world of global integration, America's main interest in Afika is counter-terrorism."

As Eric looked at Qiao Jia's strange eyes, he said helplessly: "What I said is true. At least the CIA's work there is mainly to collect intelligence on terrorists. Of course, it also needs to pay attention to allies and other major powers. development here.”

Joga still believed what Eric said, because Afika has an African daddy, that is France.

In the absence of sufficient benefits, the first people to offend by messing around in Afika are the allies.

If Laos and the United States now want to start competing for geopolitical interests in Afika, they can only take the high-level route.

For example, when the presidents of the recent American governments came to power, they would first call the presidents of several key countries in Afika and use various military aid and assistance as bargaining chips to get them to stand on their side on certain matters.

This kind of thing always happens before key meetings. Unfortunately, because too little of the promise was fulfilled, it has gradually become less effective.

The United States does not have much economic interest in Afika. It seems that it is doing this just to be a troublemaker. By the way, it will see if Ethiopia, Nigeria and other newly emerging countries have any money.

Competition between great powers is like this anyway. If you poke me in the lungs, I will poke you in the waist. If there is any benefit, you can make a little profit. If there is no benefit, just make your competitors or even strong allies feel uncomfortable. You can still win.

Looking at Eric's sincere expression, Qiao Jia shook his head and said with a smile: "You always talk about counter-terrorism to me, what exactly do you want to say?

To be honest, my abilities are limited and my influence only hovers around Central Africa.

There are many terrorist organizations in Afika, but the biggest ones like Boko Haram have no impact on you.

The jihadist organizations in North Africa are very troublesome. It is impossible for me to go to places like Libya to fight against terrorism, because you will definitely not be able to accept the price I want. "

Eric was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said: "Do you think too highly of me?

My main task is to sit in an office in Morocco and occasionally go to Libya to contact NATO colleagues and exchange intelligence.

The main work is actually done by the heads of intelligence stations in various places.

You may not believe it when I say it, but I hope Afika will be peaceful during my term! "

After hearing this, Qiao Jia said curiously: "Then why did you come to me specially? Is it just to tell me the good news?"

Eric nodded and shook his head, and said: "I will start working next month, and as the regional leader, I need someone reliable to protect my safety.

I rejected the defense company recommended to me by the headquarters. I wanted to choose P·B to provide security services for me.

My personal security budget is not high, only $500,000 a year, but if you are willing to help me, I can win the security contract for the Libyan intelligence station.

There are 4 Deltas permanently stationed there as operatives, and your people only need to be responsible for building and personnel security.

It takes about ten people and $4.5 million a year!

The only requirement is that the head of security at the intelligence station must be an American! "

Qiao Jia was stunned by Eric's 'false words'. Even to his death, he never imagined that the security services of CIA's foreign intelligence stations were actually outsourced.

Does the CIA have no one left?

With a total contract of 5 million, the money provided is quite sincere, and can even be said to be very high.

It was obvious that this was a sweet date thrown by Eric to himself, hoping to make P·B pay more attention to his affairs.

For Jorgia, Eric is of extraordinary value. Compared with his connections in the Department of Justice, Eric's path is much wilder and more courageous.

Now that he has shown his sincerity, Qiao Jia has to accept the contract no matter what.

The manpower is all ready. The Spurs, Orange Cats, and Flutters are equipped with a team of well-trained P.B. Black, and it is enough to let Sanderson and Waters rotate occasionally.

The major cities in Libya have basically ceased fighting. Even if there is a war, the interests of various local people will be internally affected. It is enough to have these people to ensure the safety of an intelligence station.

Eric's own safety issue is a little simpler. 500,000 yuan is a bit worth mentioning to Qiao Jia now, but for the French guy One-Eye and their 'iron wall mercenary group', it is still enough. They worked hard.

As soon as Princess Charlene of Monaco’s contract ends, just send ‘One Eye’ and the others to Eric.

Nodding in agreement with Eric's request, Qiao Jia said with a smile: "I will ask the company's lawyer to find you to sign the contract. After the advance payment is received, I will ask my people to join you.

To be honest, I have heard that the US military relies heavily on mercenaries, but I really didn't expect it to be to this extent. "

Eric smiled and said: "Mercenaries have solved part of Congress' problems, and at the same time they have also solved part of the domestic employment problem in the United States, and indirectly stimulated the military industry.

If you are interested, you can pay attention. The market for security services is very large, especially in the Middle East and Afika. "

After speaking, Eric was stunned for a moment, and then said funnyly: "Oh, you don't seem to be taking this path.

I have read the information about P.B. in Afika, and I can’t understand some of your actions, but I have to admit that although it doesn’t seem to make any money there, it did win you enough respect and trust. "

Qiao Jia rolled his eyes when he heard this and said unhappily: "You don't understand, my business is to make big money."

Eric really didn't understand, but he couldn't understand why Qiao Jia, the boss of a small company, thought he could do things that even the giants couldn't do?

And at present, it seems that although P.B.'s anti-drug business is still an absolute money-losing business in the eyes of Americans, it has indeed stabilized the situation in Central Africa.

Seeing Qiao Jia’s unhappy expression when he mentioned ‘losing money’, Eric smiled and said, “You have to be mentally prepared. I just got some news that France is a little dissatisfied with the recent attitude of the Central African government.

The uranium mines near the border between northern Central Africa and Chad are something France cannot afford to lose.

They need a completely controlled government!

Russia contracted its military aid to Central Africa to the Wagner Group, which originally made France extremely dissatisfied. Now your project near Sangha Town has taken away most of its influence.

France will not necessarily attack you directly, but once there are changes there, they will find opportunities to intervene and weaken your influence. "

When Qiao Jia heard this, he said a little unbelievably: "The French army was just attacked in Afica, and they lost the key uranium raw materials and have not recovered them. How could they have time to trouble me? I helped me at that time." Their."

Eric originally wanted to show off, but when he heard the news, he said in disbelief: "Yesterday, I sorted out the information about Afika in the past six months. Why didn't I see any relevant content?"

After hearing this, Qiao Jia said curiously: "You don't know about such a big thing. Did the person who gave you the information miss it, or did they do it on purpose?

It's impossible. The French were having a very unpleasant time with your people at that time. "

Eric is definitely not qualified in terms of intelligence capabilities, but his political sense is keen enough.

If there is a problem in the handover before taking office, it is very likely that he will take the blame.

Thinking of this, Eric's forehead was covered with sweat. He put down his wine glass and stood up and walked around anxiously. Finally, he looked at Qiao Jia and said, "Jackal, I may have been tricked."
