Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The Niger River Delta in southeastern Nigeria includes a total of 14 states, including Delta State, Bayelsa State, and Rivers State. Most of Nigeria's oil is concentrated here, and these three states are the main ones.  However, Nigeria's severely lagging supporting facilities and chaotic situation have made it impossible to extract most of the oil. For example, Bayelsa State, which is rich in oil reserves, has crisscrossed rivers, swamps, and inconvenient transportation. Most areas in the state are not connected to electricity.  None, it is extremely difficult to develop.

    Only by seeing with his own eyes the hard life of ordinary people can Jonas understand the local people's resistance and hostility towards foreign merchants.  In Bayelsa State, due to the swamps all over the land and poor planting conditions, most of the local people live on poisonous cassava and sweet potatoes. Many ordinary people live in houses built with a kind of reed produced in the local swamps.  Many people are barely clothed, and the overall condition is not even as good as when New China was first founded.

    Thinking that he had spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on just three small gifts, Jonas couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. If he invested here in the future, he couldn't be like those big companies that only plundered and didn't know how to give.

    Yesterday's Valentine's Day, of course, Jonas had to prepare a small gift for his lovers. Latini's gift was prepared by Elini, a Herm¨¨s gauze scarf, and a special person was sent to deliver it directly from Europe.  It arrived in the hands of Latini in the United Arab Emirates.  Of course, Elini would not treat herself badly. After getting Jonas's permission, she bought herself a new 7 Series from BMW.

    Now that a formal company has been established, all configurations must be perfected. For Jonas, a BMW is indeed nothing. To make Elini happy and let her work dedicatedly is better than anything else.  .

    Ivanka Jonas, who is far away in the United States, will certainly not forget that it is already difficult enough for Alini to prepare a gift for Latini. Of course, buying a gift for Ivanka cannot trouble her anymore.  Fortunately, there is an obedient Kingston in the United States. After Jonas called, he immediately sent Ivanka the limited edition pair of five-inch crystal high heels from the Grafim store.  Jonas remembers clearly that Ivanka¡¯s favorite thing is five-inch high heels.

    ¡°The three women were all happy, and Jonas also got the sweet reward he deserved.  Latini gave Jonas a rare air kiss on the phone. Elini continued to organize the company's affairs tirelessly. As for Ivanka, this sweet girl, she would have flown over immediately if Jonas hadn't dissuaded her.  Nigeria dedicated itself.

    Thinking of Ivanka¡¯s lingering love on the phone, Jonas couldn¡¯t help but have a smile on his face.  Not only is she emotionally decisive, but she is also very coquettish and very coquettish. Compared to Latini's cowardice, she is indeed a good rival in love and can win the favor of Jonas better.

    But when he thought of Latini¡¯s timidity, Jonas felt a sense of pride as a man, and he was even more loved and cherished by Jonas.  In short, these are two completely different types of girls, completely incomparable.  At least for now, it seems that none of the two girls, Jonas, want to give up.

    Jonas stretched his body and took his eyes away from the scenery outside the window. Although the scenery outside was very beautiful, it became boring after a long time.  Here, you can see all kinds of green, including woods, farmland, grass, and even the river showing an attractive green color under the reflection of the blue sky.  It's a pity that it's all flat. This alluvial plain lacks changes and is far inferior to the mountains and rivers of Switzerland.

    Johnson was going to Abuja today to deal with an emergency. Jonas didn't want to waste any more time and took the initiative to go to the gathering place of the Urhebo tribe to negotiate the transportation of arms, accompanied by Vasiles.  After smooth negotiations between the Igbo and Ijaw tribes, Jonas no longer felt pressured by this opportunity to show his face just as a decoration.

    Vasiles usually negotiates specific matters directly with the other party. The role of Johnson and Jonas is nothing more than to communicate more with the other party's senior management, build relationships, and cultivate feelings.

    Jonas turned around and asked: "Vasires, how long until we arrive?"

    Looking away from the documents on his lap, Vasiles looked out the window and said: "We have just passed the border of Bayelsa, and we can get to Ughelli in half an hour."

    Jonas smiled and said: "You are very familiar with Nigeria."

    ¡°I have been working here for three years, and I have to fly back and forth in this area countless times by helicopter every month,¡± Vasilez said with a smile. ¡°It¡¯s hard not to be familiar with it.¡±

    "Where do your wife and children live?"

    "They live in Athens." When talking about his family, Vasiles became interested and took out his wallet to show it to Jonas.  "This is my wife, a conscientious woman who also works for Mr. Rich's oil services company.She worked and raised two wonderful children for me.  "

    In the photo on the inside of the wallet, a family of four posing in front of the dining table looks very harmonious.  His wife is a slightly fat middle-aged woman, but it can be seen from her profile that she was a beauty when she was young.  Two children, a boy and a girl, were nestled in their arms, smiling very happily.

    "I can tell you have a happy family. How often can you go back?"

    Vasilez smiled and said: "Middle-level employees like me can take a vacation every three months, and the company will reimburse the round-trip air tickets. In another two years, if I can find a senior management position  , then I can go back to visit them every month, and even bring my wife to work here.¡±

    Jonas asked: ¡°Have you never thought about being transferred back to Greece to work?¡±

    Vassires shook his head and said: "You know, the economic situation in Greece is not very good now. I had a field subsidy in Nigeria. When I returned to Greece, my income from this area was gone."

    "Is your burden heavy?"

    "I have four elderly people to support. My mother is not in good health, but domestic medical subsidies cannot be paid at all now, so" He smiled and said, "Fortunately, my wife and I have two  A good job also allows us to pay various bills easily. We can also save a small amount of money every month for our children.¡±

    Jonas looked at his satisfied smile, but felt irritable in his heart.  The heavy pressure of life did not make him succumb. On the contrary, he was very satisfied with his current life. And since he already had a happy family and a prosperous life, if he didn't enjoy it well and wanted to pursue more, what exactly was he doing?  ?  Are you too dissatisfied?

    Just as Jonas was thinking wildly, the helicopter suddenly came to an obvious pause. Jonas was caught off guard and crashed into the front seat. Several bodyguards sitting in the back quickly supported him.  Vasiles was sitting upright in his seat. He was fine, but the documents on his lap fell to the floor.

    The driver exclaimed: "Damn it, one of the engines has stopped working. Sir, I need to find a place to stop and check it out."

    Jonas is also scared. He doesn¡¯t want to lose his life like this. Although there is still an engine working, there is no safety guarantee at all now.  He quickly said: "Find an open space to stop."

    Although the plane stopped smoothly, Jonas felt like he was breaking out in a cold sweat.  This is not a car or a ship. Even if it breaks down, it will be fine. It stays on the ground or on the water anyway.  This is in the air, and if something happens, you may die without any body parts.

    The four bodyguards also had some lingering fears. Even if they were not afraid of death, they did not want to die in such an inexplicable way.  On the contrary, Vasilez was calmer. He also said with a smile: "I have already experienced such an accident, but this kind of twin-engine helicopter can still fly with one engine working. It has stopped now.  Come down, if you want to take off, you can only hope to find the problem.¡±

    Vasilez¡¯s implication was a bit regretful, because this kind of medium-sized business helicopter can fly and land with one engine, but it is impossible to take off.

    Jonas is not willing to take this risk. Who knows if the other engine will suddenly fail.  The plane stopped, Boggs opened the door, jumped out first, and turned around to help Jonas.  Jonas waved his hand: "I am not an old person, so I don't need your help."

    The pilot turned around and said: "Sir, this is the border area between the Urhebo and Isoko tribes. It is not very safe, so don't go too far."

    Vasiles looked at the surrounding environment without recognizing where it was, and asked the black driver: "Bula, where is this place? I need to explain the situation to the company and Chief Warit."

    Bulla said: "We are five kilometers west of the Forcados River, and about two kilometers to the west is a village called Uzeri. The south is ten kilometers away from the highway leading to Ughelli."

    After receiving a definite answer, Vasiles avoided the propeller range of the helicopter and went to the side to make a phone call. Several people did not pay attention and gathered around Bulla to watch him find the fault of the aircraft.  Boggs and Hank dedicatedly surrounded Jonas in the middle, while the ordinary security guards from the two companies acted as agents for Bra.

    The problem was easily found. A high-voltage line from the engine to the relay box was short-circuited. The relay capacitor at one end was burned out. It was necessary to replace a capacitor and a section of wire.  There are spare parts for the capacitor in the repair box, but not for the wires.

    Bulla searched for it and said: "Sir, there are two solutions now. One is to send people to a nearby town to buy a piece of wire. The other is that I first get the auxiliary power of the aircraft."When installing, remove a section of high-voltage wire first and deal with it after returning.  "

    Before Jonas could speak, he heard Vasiles yelling.  Everyone turned their heads and saw Vasiles staggering toward the crowd with his head in his hands. Blood emerged from between his fingers and flowed down his arms. In the blink of an eye, his shirt was stained red.  Two black men in colorful clothes were running away into the distance, and they kept looking back.

    Jonas was startled and cried: "Go and catch them."

    Hank leads the way.  He rushed out immediately, and the other two security guards drew their pistols and chased after him.  Boggs did not leave Jonas's side. Instead, he took out his gun, guarded it carefully, and instructed the frightened Bra to find medicine to bandage Vassires's wound.
