the next day.
The news that Sankara wanted to raise wages for soldiers, officials, police and teachers spread to every corner of the country in just a few days.
Even the mice in their holes heard the news from the house cat!
For a time, the whole country was in a state of excitement.
“Have you heard? We are going to raise wages!”
“Are you out of touch with society? The relevant documents have been handed down!”
“The salaries of soldiers, officials, police, and teachers all need to be increased? And by so much! Does the government have so much money? It’s not lying to us, is it?”
“It can’t be fake, right?”
“What if! What if it’s fake? Then aren’t we happy in vain now?”
“Ha! Then I will let the new president know the consequences of making us happy in vain!”
“It’s useless to say more now! We’ll know when the salary is paid on the 5th of next month, right?”
“I believe the president will not lie to us!”
Driven by caring people, everyone’s hearts are wavering on whether they can receive the salary promised by Sankara next month, just more or less.
“Increase wages? The national treasury is so poor that it makes mice cry. I want to see what he uses to increase wages! Is it relying on his mouth?”
“Hahaha……”
“As long as he cannot pay the salary he promised on the fifth of next month, then his term as president will probably come to an end!”
“Maybe we can call him ‘President January’!”
“Hahaha!!!”
Those rats, supported by the North African Strategic Intelligence Service, who were preparing to oppose Sankara, were hiding in dark corners and taunting him with their sharp teeth and sharp mouths.
…
Sankara couldn’t hear the taunts of these rats who only dared to hide in the sewers, and even if he heard them, he wouldn’t care.
Because he has more important things now!
A dozen experts from the Soviet Union took a special plane and secretly arrived at the so-called international airport on the east side of the capital Dougagu.
“Coming so soon? Is the Soviet Union already short of uranium ore to this extent?”
Sankara, who was handling official business in the office, was surprised when he learned the news.
Then, he took out a document from the drawer, handed it to Mayev and said:
“Send this document to Soviet Ambassador Alexovich and tell him that the specific coordinates of the largest uranium mines are all on this.”
Under normal circumstances.
These coordinates should be kept secret, or kept secret.
Because uranium ore is a very important strategic resource, but who said that this is not normal?
Before getting rid of the control of the French Fourth Republic.
The Republic of Burkina is not a normal country.
In extraordinary times, do extraordinary things!
At least compared to other countries, the Soviet Union is a very bottom-line cooperation partner!
As for the Eastern Dragon?
Well… they are indeed a better partner than the Soviet Union.
But the problem is!
The Eastern Dragon is still licking the wounds left over from the Second World War, and it is impossible for the Eastern Dragon to provide such a huge loan to Sankara.
The most important thing is that they have no shortage of uranium at all!
I am afraid that only the Soviet Union, which purchased uranium ore at a hundred times the price in the international market, would be willing to let Sankara use uranium ore as a bargaining chip in negotiations!
…
Soviet Union, Kremlin.
“I just received news that there are nearly 500,000 tons of uranium buried underground in areas controlled by the government of the Republic of Burkinia!”
“real!?”
“Yes, this is the news from our own experts!”
“That means that the boy named Sankara did not lie, nor was he deceived by the officials below him. They indeed have 1.05 million tons of uranium ore!”
“If there are indeed at least 600,000 tons of uranium ore in the area controlled by the rebels, then they did not lie to us! But…”
“There are no buts! Even if there is no remaining 600,000 tons, these 500,000 tons are enough! Don’t they want a loan? How much?”
“It seems like 10 billion rubles!”
“Here! Give them! Let them take these 10 billion rubles quickly! Then let them move their feet away from our uranium mines!”
“Don’t be so excited, Davari! They just used uranium ore as collateral and sold the mined uranium ore to us first at the market price. They didn’t say they sold 1.05 million tons of uranium ore directly to us.!”
“If you sell it to us first at the market price, then it will still be our uranium mine, right?”
“Uh…”
…
A week later.
The calendar turned to November 15, Monday.
Republic of Burkina, Presidential Palace.
In the reception room.
“Dear Mr. President!”
Yalikovich’s way of addressing Sankara has changed, with a honorific in front.
“Our experts have confirmed that there are indeed nearly 500,000 tons of uranium mines in the area controlled by you, Mr. President.”
“So we are willing to believe it.”
“In the area controlled by your country’s anti-government armed forces, there are 600,000 tons of uranium mines left!”
“Therefore, our country is willing to provide your country with a loan of 10 billion rubles that your country urgently needs. At the same time, in order to demonstrate the friendship between our two countries, this loan is interest-free!”
“But we also have a few conditions! ”
There is no free lunch in the world!
All the gifts of fate have already been secretly marked with a price.
So, when Yalikovich said that they had a few more conditions, Sankara was not surprised, but nodded very calmly and said:
“Please go ahead, Mr. Ambassador!”
Perhaps Sankara was too calm, which made Yalikovich feel that it was “the calm before the storm”!
So he quickly added:
“Mr. President, don’t worry, these conditions will never make you embarrassed. This is just to provide a better foundation and guarantee for our cooperation!”
Seeing that Sankara did not react at all and still looked calm, Yalikovich could only continue to speak:
“First of all, it is the interest-free loan of 10 billion rubles.”
“Of the 7 billion rubles, your country can only use it to purchase products produced in our country. Of course, these products are sold to your country at market prices. We will not do the Ansa Capital thing!”
“The remaining 3 billion rubles can be freely disposed of by your country. You can use them for whatever you want. We will never ask! ”
“No problem!”
Sankara nodded in agreement.
You can also leave 30% of the free disposal quota, which is beyond Sankara’s expectations. He originally thought that it would be at most 20%, or even 10%!
If it were the capitalists of the American Alliance, I’m afraid they would not even give you 10%, and they might even… No! They would definitely give you a discount!
Because you can only take out all the loans and buy their products at a price 20% or even 30% higher than the market price.
Seeing that Sankara agreed to the first point, Yalikovich continued:
“Then it’s the use of these 7 billion rubles!”
“We hope that your country can take out part of it and give priority to purchasing the supporting equipment needed for uranium mining. We will sell these equipment to you at a price lower than the international market price!”
“Then mine the uranium in your country as soon as possible!”
“Because this is the basis for cooperation between our two countries, I hope you, Mr. President, will pay attention to it! ”
“This is not a problem at all. Mr. Ambassador, you can rest assured that I will purchase relevant equipment from your country as soon as I get the loan, and then start mining uranium and export it to your country!”
In fact, even if Yalikovich didn’t mention this, Sankara would do it.
Because he will need to pull the Soviet Union’s bear skin to scare France, the lame Gallic rooster!
“There is one last condition, which is…”
