Expedition to Europe

At night, Qin Mu returned to Osas's speedboat. As if nothing unpleasant had happened during the day, Osas warmly entertained Qin Mu. The two opened a bottle of red wine and shared a roasted whole lamb. They were very happy.

Osas did not continue to sell his "goods" to Qin Mu, and Qin Mu did not mention the slaves. The two were like good friends who had not seen each other for many years. Osas talked about the customs and customs of South Africa, and Qin Mu talked about various royal secrets in the Middle East. They talked happily.

However, Osas did not like the Middle East. The Persians had been hunting slaves on the African continent for hundreds of years. It was a miracle that Osas would like Persians.

Qin Mu did not like it either. To be more precise, Qin Mu did not like everyone except the Chinese. Qin Mu and Osas had a lot in common in hating Persians.

The meal was very happy. After returning to the bedroom, Qin Mu did not want to sleep and called Doug to go out for a walk.

Doug has been a little silent since he landed on Inhaka Island. When Qin Mu saw the slaves in the afternoon, he found a deep sadness in Doug's eyes. It was obvious that the tragic experience of the slaves reminded him of the sad past.

When they walked to a place where no one was, Doug knelt down in front of Qin Mu, hugged Qin Mu's legs and cried loudly: "Sir, please save these poor guys, they will be loyal to you forever, they can help you do anything, I know you have the ability, as long as you rescue them, you will be Doug's eternal master, Doug and those people will be your eternal servants, and your will will be our eternal goal-"

Doug hugged him a little tightly, and Qin Mu couldn't lift his legs to kick Doug away, so he could only say coldly: "Get up and talk-"

Doug was indeed obedient, and immediately got up from the ground, looking at Qin Mu pitifully with expectant eyes.

Qin Mu waved his hand to let Martin and the others go to guard the surroundings, and then said to Doug in a serious tone: "You know, I need a lot of people. There are far from enough people here. If you are allowed to control this place, can you bring me continuous manpower?"

Qin Mu's favorite thing is definitely not to do business properly. Stabbing in the back and doing some business without capital is the kingly way to quickly accumulate original capital. There is no need to pay attention to morality with this group of slave traders. It is enough to kill them directly with thunder and lightning. Maybe it can also bring Lan Fang a good reputation of "firmly opposing the slave trade". This kind of good thing that kills multiple birds with one stone cannot be missed.

"Manpower-do you need more slaves?" Doug's expression was a little bitter, but he asked with hope, hoping to get the answer he wanted.

"Hire workers! The kind with salary, you can be a soldier or a worker. You will get a day's salary for one day's work, you will not be abused, and you will have enough food-" Qin Mu was not happy.

If it was Doug who got the people, then Qin Mu would definitely not pay for the purchase, which would save a lot of money.

This result was like heavenly music to Doug. Doug knelt in front of Qin Mu again, but this time he didn't hug his thighs. He kowtowed on the ground "bang, bang, bang", and the sound was quite loud.

"Get up, get up——" Qin Mu was still in a bad mood. He used so much strength, and he was not afraid of being knocked silly.

As expected, Doug felt a little dizzy when he stood up, and it took him a long time to react: "Don't worry, Sir, Doug will definitely get you enough hired workers. As long as they are not abused like slaves all day long, there will be as many people as you want, and you are willing to pay them. This is simply a pie in the sky. There is no need to worry about a shortage of manpower. I am just afraid that you can't use up so many people-"

These days, Africans have very low requirements. As long as they are fed and not starving to death, it's fine. As for salary, it's something they dare not even think about. At the beginning, Doug was deceived to Australia by the Persians under the banner of "employment", and then he was sent back to Africa like a pig. It is definitely unrealistic to say that Doug has no complaints in his heart. It is precisely because of his past experience that Doug is grateful to Qin Mu.

"Doug, where is your hometown?" Qin Mu wanted to know more about Doug, so that he could better control Doug.

"Hometown - I don't know -" Doug's expression was confused for a moment, and the answer he gave surprised Qin Mu, and then Doug's expression turned into pain again: "I was born in a tribe called Saboba. There were many people in the tribe at the beginning. I had four brothers and five sisters. Later, the British came and drove us away from our land and burned our houses. The chieftain quarreled with the British and was killed by the British. Many people died in the tribe. I was the only one left among us brothers and sisters. It took a long time to walk from Saboba to East London, and then went to Perth -"

When Doug mentioned the number of people, he used "many" to describe it. Qin Mu was not surprised. Doug could only count ten numbers clearly, and he couldn't count more than ten.

Doug knew English, and it seemed that he went from Saboba to East London when he was very young. This really became untraceable. It is estimated that Saboba may not be called this name now, and there is no way to find it if you want to.

That's not right. The British Colonial Office probably has archives.

Evil colonialism!

"It doesn't matter. Since we don't have a home anymore, we can make one here. As long as there are people here, everything will be fine." Qin Mu gave Doug confidence.

"Here?" Doug obviously lacked confidence.

"Yes, right here. I plan to wipe out all the slave traders' dens on this island, and then use this place as our transit station. You will be in charge of this place in the future." Qin Mu decided the future fate of Inhaka Island with just a few words.

"But--but this is the Portuguese territory--" Doug stuttered a little, and it seemed that he was frightened.

"So what? Now our Lan Fang has set its sights on this place!" Qin Mu was not worried.

Geographically speaking, Inhaca Island is indeed the Portuguese territory, but so what? Lan Fang has seized colonies from Westerners more than once or twice. It is a small country that has passed its prime. Qin Mu can't even find Portugal on the map, so he doesn't need to pay attention to them.

"But--but--" Doug said but for a long time but couldn't come up with a reason.

"What? You don't want to?" Qin Mu was impatient.

"No, no, no, of course I do. As you wish, my master, this will be Lan Fang's territory in the future." Doug's reaction was not slow, and he immediately understood how to answer.

Qin Mu noticed this problem when he was walking around the island in the afternoon. In fact, Inhaca Island is not far from Maputo, the largest city in Mozambique, only a few dozen kilometers away. However, the Portuguese obviously did not notice this place, or rather, Portugal noticed the slave traders here, but for some reason, the Portuguese did not drive these slave traders away.

This gave Lan Fang an opportunity. If Lan Fang could seize this opportunity to clear out the slave traders here, then while winning reputation for Lan Fang, it could also get a piece of enclave for Lan Fang in Africa. Although it was only a few dozen square kilometers, it was a good start. With this start, it could be slowly attacked in the future.

Qin Mu had ordered people to return to Durban to send a telegram to the Lan Fang military headquarters to report the situation here. Reinforcements would arrive in the next few days, and then it would be the end of the slave traders on Inhaca Island.

Since the decision had been made, Qin Mu was no longer in a hurry. In the next few days, Qin Mu and Osas further negotiated on the price, and Qin Mu made a requirement: the number of slaves in the first transaction should not be less than 10,000.

Osas was not surprised by this request. There were many more bizarre requests than this one. Osas would not ask Qin Mu why he made this request. He was just happy to have a big customer.

The original text can be read in Liu # 9 @Shu/Bar!

Ten thousand people, this is not a small number. Osas can't gather them all in a short time. Even if all the slaves on Inhaka Island are added together, there are not ten thousand people, so Osas asked Qin Mu to give Osas some time.

Qin Mu certainly would not refuse such a request. Anyway, the Lan Fang Navy has not arrived yet, and Osas can delay it as long as he wants.

The efficiency of the Lan Fang Navy is still very high. A week later, Qin Mu received a report that a destroyer fleet composed of five Lan Fang Navy destroyers was about to arrive in Inhambane, only 130 nautical miles away from Inhaka Island, and could march to Inhaka Island at any time.

Qin Mu did not hesitate and immediately notified the destroyer fleet to advance to Inhaka Island.

Osas has informed Qin Mu that the ship carrying slaves will arrive at Inhaka Island tomorrow. Qin Mu wants the honor of "fighting the slave trade" and wants to get all the slaves on Inhaka Island, not wanting to let go of any of them.

In the early morning, at the dock of Osas, Martin led eight soldiers and was ready.

Martin's mission is to seize the dock of Osas, kill all the armed guards, and then light a bonfire on the dock to point out the direction for the support troops.

There are two companies of marines on the destroyer fleet. They will land on the island first and eliminate all armed forces on the island. The mission of the destroyer fleet is to cruise in the open sea and block the entire Inhaka Island to prevent any fish from escaping.

Qin Mu's mission is to keep an eye on Osas. In order to gain Osas' trust, Qin Mu paid Osas a total of 20,000 pounds. Qin Mu doesn't want this money to go down the drain.

At 2 o'clock, the action officially began.

Without any effort, Qin Mu and three agents caught Osas on Osas's speedboat. Osas, who was sleeping soundly with a little black girl in his arms, was awakened with an incredible look on his face.

"Qin, what are you going to do?" Osas had not recovered yet.

"Let me introduce myself again. My name is Qin Mu, the director of the Kunlun Islands branch of the Lan Fang National Security Bureau. Mr. Osas, we can now discuss a business deal." Qin Mu sat down on the sofa beside the bed with a smile.

"Lan Fang - hum hum" Osas grinned repeatedly, and was not scared by Lan Fang's name: "Do you know whose business this is? You'd better be honest, otherwise you will never get out of Inhaka Island."

Qin Mu couldn't help but be stunned. This script is wrong. It's obviously the person who was arrested. How could he be more arrogant than the one who arrested him?

Qin Mu didn't give any instructions. Doug behind Qin Mu stepped forward and cut off Osas's left hand with a knife.

The scream was really earth-shaking -
