Charlie then asked again, "So, are there frequent pirate activities in the Gulf of Aden now?"

"Yes. Very frequent.” Autumn explained, "The pirate activities there have never stopped. The more

popular the ocean shipping industry is, the more active they are. They will hijack a merchant ship,

and they will detain the ship and then demand a ransom from the shipowner. It would usually start

from at least a few million US dollars and sometimes, it would even go up to tens of millions of US

dollars. The shipowner would not dare to refuse to give the money as it would be a waste of time

and money for them to go back and forth. If you waste the money for a trip, you might lose tens of

millions of US dollars or even hundreds of millions of US dollars’ worth of freight income. So now,

the shipowners have begun attaching great importance to international security, and almost all

large merchant ships will spend this money."

As she spoke, Autumn then said again, "By the way, after the incorporation of Ito-Schulz Ocean

Shipping Group, we have begun to send ships normally, and we will also purchase international

security services for our own ships."

When Charlie heard this, he asked, "Do you know anything about the current international security

companies? Where are their bases generally located?"

Autumn said, "Right now, there are at least three hundred international security companies in the

global shipping market. Of course, the highest demand for armed escorts is based in the Gulf of

Aden. So, everyone is setting up coastal bases in the Indian Ocean and the Arabian Sea coast. Some

would even buy an old ship for transformation and transform it into a sea base that is capable of

making helicopter landings and take-offs. The entire market is mostly in the hands of the British

now, followed by the United States, and relatively few in Asia. In terms of pricing, the Western

escort companies are a bit more expensive compared to the Eastern ones, and their market

acceptance is also higher."

"I understand." Charlie nodded and said, "Autumn, please sendall the information of all our

ships at this stage."

At this moment, Charlie had already made up his mind to let Ten Thousand Armies forcefully and

strongly cut into the market of armed escorts. Since the British could take up more than half of the

share, the Oskians could naturally do the same.

Since he had made up his mind to do it, he had to grasp both the ground and sea bases. On one hand, he

wanted Porter to find a way to establish bases on the coast of Yemen, Saudi Arabia, and other countries, and on

the other hand, he also had to prepare for the sea bases. So, Charlie intended to give all the information of the

ships of Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group to Porter so that he could select the most

suitable ones amongst them for the transformation.

After hanging up the phone, Charlie gave an update of the feedback that he had gotten from Autumn to Porter.

Upon hearing this, Porter

immediately said, "Mr. Wade, we can

start this business almost

immediately. Our soldiers are much stronger compared to those ordinary international security guards

regardless of whether it is in terms

of their training level, combat et

strength, or weapons and

equipment. So, we can handle this kind of work with ease. We also have better channel relations in the Middle

East. The establishment of one or two forward bases with a scale of hundreds of people along the coast of Saudi

Arabia, Yemen, and Oman should not be a big problem. II

Charlie nodded, "That would be best! All of you should begin to prepare these forward bases immediately. | will

provide you with a freighter as a mobile base at sea. In that case, it can be officially launched soon! When the

tcomes, we will start with Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group's merchant ships!"

After a pause, Charlie added, "As for

the work of providing armed security in high-risk areas overseas, it should be easier compared to armed escorts.

As long as you can find employment, you can send a certain number of soldiers over there according to the

employer's needs. | believe that based on Ten Thousand Armies' combat power and strength, there certainly

would not be any problems in that kind of third-world country, and no additional training is needed. So, you can

divide your soldiers ahead of tto prepare for the transformation to be a soldier in this field. Once you receive

any projects, send people over there directly."

"Good!" Charlie said with

Porter said with sexcitement, "Don't worry, Mr. Wade. | will start on the arrangements

immediately. | will be able to solve and deal with all the preparation work within two weeks!"

satisfaction, "As for the more than

ten thousand men of yours that have been taken captive in Syria, will find a way to mediate with

them to get them to release them. In addition, | also intend to help you to seek to prepare a strong

rear base that can fit ten thousand men in Syria."

When Porter heard this, he was even more excited, and even his voice trembled a bit as he asked

incredulously, "Mr. Wade... You... Can you really make them release the captives and also make

them allow us to build a rear base?" Charlie nodded and said seriously, "You need the location, and

they need protection and help. When it comes to this kind of thing, it's just a matter of both sides

taking what they need, so as long as the conditions can be negotiated, nothing is impossible."
