From arms dealer to king of war

The westernmost town of Aqionghan is ‘Zaranji’...

As the town closest to Iran in Balochistan, it is not the Afghans or Iranians who dominate here, but the local Pashtuns and Baluchis.

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

Refining heroin not only requires raw opium, but also requires a series of chemicals...

High-yielding, drought-tolerant genetically modified poppy seeds, chemical fertilizers, and processing raw materials are all things that Afghanistan itself does not possess.

Of the more than 30 million people in Afghanistan, one-tenth of them depend on the heroin industry chain, and most of them are farmers.

But farmers will never get the biggest dividends from the industrial chain. They grow and extract raw opium and sell it to warlords, which at best can only guarantee a living for their families.

Heroin 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 traffickers from all over the world, disguised as investors, took away the two links with the highest risks and highest profit margins, namely ‘transportation’ and ‘wholesale’, and then came the drug trafficking terminals in various countries.

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

However, just because the drug problem cannot be solved does not mean that we cannot open up gaps in the drug lords and warlords.

Farmers cannot move, but the drug lord is dead and the poppies grown by farmers cannot be sold. As long as water conservancy projects and land policies can be followed up a little, they can be easily persuaded to grow more laborious food and vegetables.

'Anti-drugs' is the most important brand on P·B's head. Boss Qiao has to make achievements when he comes, and he has to do it beautifully.

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

As the "bottom line" of the United Nations, what they want to see is whether people's basic rights to survival are protected, not simply banning drugs.

It's not enough for you to ban poppy cultivation, you also have to give those farmers a way to live.

Otherwise, there may be fewer drug addicts in the world, and fewer people will be victims of drug circulation. However, 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 at the same time establish P.B.'s tough image in combating drugs, he cannot start from the 'source' that is easiest to bully. Instead, he must hammer to death those tribal warlords and 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 before, as long as the Taliban can figure it out, "anti-drug" is a political sword that can deter regional armed forces for them.

But now they don't have full control of the situation...

And according to the information conveyed by Qiao Liang, although Tower L class understood the benefits and was determined to act according to the pie drawn by Qiao Liang, their attitude was a bit too extreme, which made Qiao Liang regard drugs as a Chinese people who have taboos are a little worried...

Therefore, in P·B’s first operation, Boss Qiao resolutely excluded the Taliban L class armed forces who were willing to participate...

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

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

But when he returned to the Golden Crescent with $200 million in cash, the 'Ndrangheta boss quickly regrouped. Not only was he not killed by his creditors, but he regained their trust and used $200 million to pry They are moving a bigger drug tray and are preparing to once again handle a super big business involving more than 200 tons of heroin.

As the monitor and liaison officer following Moussa Suleiman, Al-Rawi was sitting in an adobe house, flipping through a list and looking at the people sitting on the shabby sofa. Moussa Suleiman drinking black tea...

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

Musa glanced at Al Rahway and the members of the 'Golden Eagle Unit' transferred from Ukraine who were guarding the door. He shook his head slightly and said: "What your boss is pursuing is the shock of the first shot. Sex, when Tower L bowed to their bosses, showing firepower was not all he pursued...

Now there is a lot of chaos within Afghanistan, and the Taliban are trying hard to unite most of the tribes and form an interim government.

Whoever has the most cash in hand now will have the upper hand in Afghanistan's political game in the future. "

As he spoke, Musa shook his head slightly and said: "Actually, I didn't expect it to go so smoothly...

The sudden change made these tribal warlords eager to get rid of their heroin stocks. At the same time, because all the middlemen had withdrawn to Pakistan to check the situation, I was given the opportunity.

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

If you capture enough of them, you will basically remove the bones of the Golden Crescent drug industry chain, and it will be easy for your boss to do something next. "

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-Rawi, 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 with you.

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. "

Moussa 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, which will prevent your work ability from being 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 never dared to think about 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, can't imagine. of money.

Such a family was uprooted by my boss because he challenged 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 sneered: "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? "
