Chapter 710: Chapter 710: Big Conspiracy_1
Just as the plane landed, Angelina received a call from Wang Ye.
On the phone, Wang Ye told her that he had sent people and a car to the airport to meet them.
If it was Angelina herself, Wang Ye would definitely have come to greet her in person.
However, since a delegation was coming, it was awkward for Wang Ye to show up in person, as there was a significant difference in their ranks.
Besides, Crimea is still under Ukraine’s jurisdiction, so the principle of diplomatic reciprocity must be respected.
The accommodation was arranged at the Xiao Ying Hotel. Although it does not boast five-star ratings, its standards are far from low. After undergoing renovation, it is not inferior to any five-star hotel in Moscow.
Furthermore, as the head of the delegation, it was only proper for Angelina to stay with the members of the delegation.
Concurrently, it was convenient for her to "meet" with Wang Ye, making the Xiao Ying Hotel the best choice.
...
Without being overly ostentatious, the vehicle sent by Wang Ye was not a convoy but a luxury bus that could accommodate all members of the delegation.
The person sent to pick them up, however, surprised Angelina because it was her younger sister, Nova!
After serving as an assistant to Wang Ye for so long, Nova no longer resembled the naive students on campus.
She wore a well-tailored, high-quality professional skirt suit, a pair of high heels, and her long hair was pulled into a bun. She looked efficient and neat, embodying the image of a career woman.
Seeing the graceful and upright Nova, Angelina felt a pang of emotion.
Since meeting Wang Ye, not only her life but also her family’s destiny had undergone significant changes.
Nova, freshly out of college, served as the assistant to the Deputy Speaker of the Duma. She was at the crossroads of two major conglomerates and was privy to the drafting of major national policies!
For a newcomer in the workplace, such an opportunity is tremendously hard to come by!
After a few years of working with Wang Ye, she should be ready to take charge on her own.
There would be no need to worry about not being able to use her talents as there are several large conglomerate companies under Wang Ye.
Moreover, taking into consideration her relationship with Wang Ye, Nova would be able to pick her job post at will.
Or she could continue to serve as Wang Ye’s assistant and that too would not be a bad position.
Perhaps she could even venture into politics in the future...
Nova was also delighted to see her sister, Angelina.
However, she controlled her emotions well, hugged her sister and then proceeded methodically to arrange for the delegation members to get on the bus.
Once the bus started, Nova stood up and gave the group a brief overview of the arrangements during the exchange study period.
Such as accommodation, schedule, precautions, etc.
Although termed as an exchange study, it was similar to a publicly-funded trip, therefore, the schedule was quite relaxed.
Most of the day would not be spent on work-related matters; not more than two hours at most. Instead, arrangements would be made to visit major shopping malls, places of interest, museums, etc.
Of course, meetings with a few speakers from the Duma and a few other committees would also be arranged.
This would facilitate photo opportunities for the journalists as well...
...
Meanwhile, while Wang Ye and Angelina were enjoying their brief period of reunion, far away on the African continent, Petrov was plotting a major move with Little Dark Moomoo!
After becoming the tribal chieftain, Moomoo had withdrawn from his university studies.
He simply didn’t have the time to go back to Moscow for studies as there were too many matters to attend to in the tribe. After all, they were one of the largest tribes in Burkina Faso with a significant population.
With the help of Wagner Security Company, they seized a diamond mine and became rich overnight!
In addition to the wealth accumulated by the tribe over the years, Moomoo now had a substantial amount of wealth under his control.
In the past, the previous tribal chieftain, who was Moomoo’s father, was only concerned about saving money and didn’t know how to spend it. As a result, during the mine raid, their tribe was overwhelmed by hostile tribes, and in the end, he even lost his life.
However, for Moomoo, who had been overseas and experienced the world, and by chance established a relationship with the powerful armed forces of Wagner Security Company.
Through the mine raid and the death of his father, Moomoo recognized the importance of military power.
Therefore, once he had money, he began to develop tribal armed forces extensively.
Since they already had a ready supply channel, they could purchase almost all necessary military equipment from Wagner Security Company at a very reasonable price!
After all, it’s a tribal armed force, so there’s no need to buy any heavy-duty weapons such as tanks or armored vehicles.
They stick to basic firearms, ammunition, and RPGs, and the most luxurious items might be light-armored infantry vehicles.
Having weapons and equipment alone was not enough. Relying on the original group of volunteers would not bring about any significant combat power.
After all, tribal armed forces used to recruit only when a war was imminent. At other times, they still had to farm or pick bananas...
Soldiers like these, even if they have good equipment, couldn’t be counted on in times of war.
They may not even dare to fire a gun, let alone aim at the target.
Therefore, Moomoo spent a lot of money to form a professional army. From the young and strong members of the tribe, he selected those absolutely loyal to the tribe as professional soldiers.
There wasn’t a large number, only around five hundred people.
As mentioned earlier, Burkina Faso is a very poor place.
The GDP per capita is only a few hundred US dollars and there is almost no industrial base.
The country’s territory spans more than two hundred thousand square kilometers and the population is not small––almost twenty million!
This undoubtedly implies that the vast majority of people stand a slim chance of finding work, let alone decent work.
Also, Moomoo’s tribe was no exception. A lot of young and strong men were idle, but ’idle’ might not be the suitable term. After all, everyone is bustling about to make a living.
This time, when forming the tribal armed forces, Moomoo offered a whopping hundred US dollars per month!
Don’t be surprised, a wage of a hundred US bucks a month, in Burkina Faso, and not in the capital but in the country, is definitely an astronomical figure.
Many people here may never have seen such a huge amount of money in their lifetime...
So, after the recruitment message was broadcasted, the entire tribe was shaken.
Everyone ran to spread the word, overjoyed, hoping that they could be selected. This was indeed a golden opportunity to change their own and their family’s destiny!
Since they were offering such high wages, naturally the requirements were also high.
The age limit was twenty-five years, physical fitness, stamina, vision, etc. all had requirements...
Those who were selected had to sign long-term contracts of at least ten years, which means they could only retire after the age of thirty-five.
Even with such high requirements, they managed to recruit enough personnel in a short period of time.
Those selected were sent directly to Wagner’s security base, where they would undergo at least six months of rookie training!
