My Little Poplar, Chapter 95: Getting caught in a Armed Conflict
The group drove north from the capital Gaborone, Bai Xinyu took in some of the African nature and visited several communication base stations, most of them already built, the security guards had to take skilled workers to maintain them regularly, one was under construction and as Manager Xu said, their men were guarding the sites with guns and workers working alongside them, at first glance it looked like a movie about cheap labour in slavery.
While examining the site, Manager Xu explained to him how they work, the deployment of personnel, the distribution of resources, the availability of weapons, how to improve security, how to reduce or resolve conflicts with the local population and armed forces and after listening all the way through, Bai Xinyu realised that the research he had done before was too superficial, to run such a company well, the practicalities were too great. To run a company like this well, there are so many more complex issues to deal with and if one has no experience at all, one can only work as a bodyguard for celebrities and big bosses.
The knowledge and experience gained in the last few days was so great and Bai Xinyu was so pleased, that he was able to extend his expected visit and spent two days at the base of a communications base station, constantly communicating with the security staff. Gradually, he understood why Yu Fengcheng had advised him to work with Manager Xu, because he would be able to take many, many detours and most of these “detours” would mean the safety of the security personnel themselves, which made Bai Xinyu feel very strongly about Yu Fengcheng on this point. This is something that Bai Xinyu is grateful to Yu Fengcheng for.
Towards the end of their trip, about to return to Gaborone, Manager Xu suddenly received a phone call, they were having dinner, Manager Xu went out with his mobile phone, after ten minutes, he came back, with a somewhat gloomy look on his face.
Bai Xinyu asked: “Brother Xu, is everything okay?”
Manager Xu waved his hand, “There’s a problem up north, I’ve got to get over there, Xinyu, I’ll get Da-Hui to take you back to Gaborone, I’m not going back with you.”
“What’s the problem?” Bai Xinyu said: “Brother Xu, do you mind if I go with you?”
Manager Xu said with a smile: “It’s not confidential, it’s just that the trip might be a bit dangerous, it’s okay, it’s not a big deal, I’ll talk to you when we get back.”
Bai Xinyu said: “Brother Xu, if you say so, I’d like to go along, if I want to do this business, danger is inevitable, I’m here to investigate, I’ve missed the most important part, I’ve come all this way, I really don’t want to miss this opportunity, if we ever If we do work together in the future, there’s no danger of you going up, I’ll stay in the hotel, don’t you think so?”
Manager Xu frowned and hesitated.
Da-Hui said: “Manager Xu, what’s the situation, tell us, if it’s not particularly critical, let’s go together, we can help you with that too.”
Manager Xu said: “There’s a problem with a communication base station in the north, near the Caprivi area.”
Da-Hui grunted and said while huffing: “There it is again, I knew it would be peaceful.”
