King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer

When the plane entered Central Africa's airspace and began descending...

Joe Ga looked out through the airplane window at the scenery below, stretched his body unconsciously, and then relaxed completely.

Being back on his own turf, or rather, back home, made him let his guard down.

The tension from days of hustling abroad dissipated, replaced by an increasingly urgent desire to return home.

After finishing the talk with Albert II, Joe Ga no longer had the patience to waste words with him.

His mind now was completely occupied with Nis and that little one who had entered his life.

As of today, Nis had been pregnant for over seven months—he couldn't help but wonder how big her belly had grown.

The plane crossed Ndele, the gem of the north, and approached Sangha Town. The pilot intentionally lowered the altitude so that Boss Joe could clearly see the transformed Sangha Town.

The renderings that Joe Ga had once used to deceive naïve minds had now come to life...

A small town located on the bank of the Ubangi River stretched out like a massive squid, extending dozens of tentacles northward that connected numerous factories and communities.

Sangha Town's dock, resembling the squid's mouth, continuously brought in and sent out goods to meet the needs of its expanding body.

P·B's military base lay east of Sangha Town, with a brand-new road tying the thriving little town firmly to P·B's control, ensuring its development could never escape their grasp.

As the plane touched down, Joe Ga noticed the runway lined with a large number of soldiers.

When the plane came to a halt and Joe Ga was the first to step out of the cabin, the uniformed soldiers stomped rhythmically under their commander's order...

"Forceful Strike..."

"Hoo-ha~"

The resounding voices made Boss Joe pause for a moment on the stairway. He saluted and then descended slowly, shaking hands with the crowd that had come to greet him.

There were Central African officials, Sangha Town's mayor Lenore, and P·B's management team...

For the first time, Joe Ga realized he no longer fully belonged to himself...

P·B was his endeavor, but as more people affected by P·B pinned their hopes on him, it seemed even family needed to take a backseat.

Finally breaking away from the crowd, Joe Ga hurried toward Nis, who had been waiting at the back...

Seeing Nis in her elegant MSL robe, he embraced her and gave her a firm kiss, then bent over and pressed his ear to her belly to listen...

Feeling the vitality of the little life inside, Joe Ga chuckled and said, "Generally, at this stage, the child in the belly should kick their father...

Is the scene too serious and scared the child?

Tonight, we'll sleep together. I want to hug you and try again—this little one can't be so indifferent to their dad."

Nis beamed with joy, tugged Joe upright, and said, "I go for check-ups every week. Jemma said it's a boy, and he's very healthy."

Joe Ga lit up with excitement and exclaimed, "A son!

That's great; the old Joe family finally has an heir..."

Speaking of this, Joe Ga glanced at the nearby Karman, who now seemed much kinder. He gave the old man a strong hug and said, "Now you can relax, right? I've got a son. If necessary, letting him take Central African citizenship wouldn't be bad."

Karman grinned and said, "Citizenship doesn't matter. He's your son—it's more important that he's Sangha Town's prince!"

Joe Ga could feel the happiness radiating from Karman. Smiling, he patted the old man's shoulder and said, "Just wait—I'll make sure my son inherits a fortune big enough to last for generations."

After that, Joe Ga turned and looked at his younger brother Qiao Liang nearby, along with Tong Tong, who kept jumping and waving. Laughing, he walked over and hugged his brother, saying, "Look, you're going to have a nephew soon. When are you going to make progress?"

Qiao Liang smiled shyly and said, "Brother, I'm in no rush. Tong Tong and I haven't even finished our degrees yet.

Two more years, two more years..."

Tong Tong overheard the brothers' conversation and, showing no sign of shyness, jumped forward to grab Boss Joe's arm, laughing heartily, "Brother, you're finally back! I want to go see the southern jungle, but Qiao Liang won't let me...

Hurry and scold him for me—he's too timid...

Right now, I'm the most famous 'medicine witch' in the area. I want to deliver medicine to the people in the jungle."

Joe Ga was momentarily stunned, reached out to rub Tong Tong's head, and shook his own as he said, "The south isn't stable yet. Wait a while, and when things calm down, I'll personally take you there for a scouting trip.

Since you're here, we should at least visit those primitive tribes...

At that time, we'll create a tourism route specifically for visiting cannibal tribes.

I've heard your company is doing well. My hunting tour company could use some business from you."

Tong Tong exclaimed in surprise, "Do cannibal tribes still exist?"

Joe Ga burst out laughing and said, "How would I know?

But the people here respect me—if I say they are, then they will be.

We'll just plant skulls at the village entrance, make up some bizarre stories, and add some local ritual performances—how thrilling!"

Tong Tong paused, shaking her head regretfully and saying, "It's not good to deceive people. They come all this way hoping to see something unique. I think primitive jungles and primitive peoples are stimulating enough.

Brother, Father Gamo told me he's been managing a gold mine for you, but now he's brought his people back, so the mine's abandoned. Why don't we take a look and charge people to pan for gold?

Like what's done at Ndele National Park—they let people dig for diamonds, we can let them pan for gold."

As she spoke, Tong Tong mimed digging, her face serious as she continued, "I've learned a lot from Father Gamo and plan to dig up a few pounds of gold myself. Then I'll make some big gold bracelets to show off in my social circle."

Joe Ga didn't think much of Tong Tong's gold-mining dreams, but he couldn't discourage such hard work. He laughed and said, "If you want to dig for gold, I won't object. Golden tourism routes sound great too.

But all of this has to wait until the south is stable. Otherwise, with danger everywhere, who's in the mood for fun?"

As Tong Tong pouted regretfully, Briella came sprinting over...

The little girl jumped up and punched Tong Tong's bottom playfully before sticking her tongue out, making silly faces, and then ran off swiftly into the group of kids. She hugged her twin brother Jacques tightly, shouting, "Jacques, don't be scared—I'm here now, so no one can bully you anymore..."

She was soon tackled by Tong Tong, who began tickling her until she rolled on the ground laughing, her arms curled up while pleading for mercy relentlessly...

Jacques blinked as he compared himself to Tong Tong, then turned to look for big brother Gino, only to find him arm-wrestling with Danbao...

Seeing he had no one to rely on, Jacques pretended not to notice Briella's "dire predicament" and smiled broadly instead. He turned to join Gino in coaxing Danbao to meet Boss Joe—that was the main purpose!

At this moment, Gino wore a dirty military uniform streaked with black charcoal. His sister Adel appeared clean, but her backpack had a hole, from which bundles of mugwort were poking out.

Danbao, draped in a red blanket with baskets full of mugwort on either side, couldn't bear such constraints. No matter how Gino tried to tempt him, it paid no attention.

It wasn't until Danbao noticed Boss Joe was no longer busy that it finally swallowed the banana in Gino's hand and let out a long call, signaling to Boss Joe, "I'm here…"

After briefly greeting some Dubai Princesses staying at his home, Joe Ga smiled and dashed over to Danbao. He hugged the towering creature's head, laughing as he said, "Haha, you've grown so fast—looks like you're big enough to ride now?"

Danbao seemed to understand what Boss Joe was saying. It rubbed its nose on Gino's shirt before wrapping its trunk firmly around Joe's waist and attempting to lift him for a ride...

Unfortunately, its movements were clumsy, and it failed to position Boss Joe on its back.

After a few tries, Danbao grew annoyed and pointed its trunk at the baskets on its back, seemingly indicating, "These things are in the way..."

Joe Ga pinched Danbao's trunk playfully, then picked up Adel for a kiss before turning to Gino with a look of disdain, saying, "What's all this? Planning to use Danbao for carrying merchandise?"

Gino smiled awkwardly, replying, "Boss, we're now Sangha Town's pest-control champions. Just the few of us managed to eliminate the bugs around the base, so..."

Joe Ga nodded in approval and said, "Well done. Tomorrow, go handle the pests in Sangha Town too."

Initially proud of his accomplishment, Gino let out a surprised "Ah" and clutched his stomach, saying, "Boss, I think I ate something bad—I'll need a few days to rest."

Joe Ga waved and slapped him lightly on the head, laughing as he scolded, "What are you up to now?

I'm in a good mood today, so tell me—if it's reasonable, it might just happen."

Gino's eyes lit up with joy, revealing his crooked teeth as he said, "Boss, I've learned a pest-repellent recipe from Dragon Gecko. By drying mugwort, grinding it, and mixing it with some witch medicine, wood powder, and glue, we can make mosquito coils that last an entire night.

Boss, we set up a small factory in the estate, and the results are excellent. Would you consider investing a little?"

Joe Ga was momentarily taken aback. He looked at the business-minded Gino and chuckled, saying, "Not bad—you're already brainstorming ways to make money!

If you don't end up hanging from a streetlamp someday, you might just become a rich man."

Gino blinked at him and asked, "Boss, is that a compliment?"

Looking down, Joe noticed little Prince Jacques blinking back at him. Joe sighed softly...

These kids didn't really need investment—Jacques wasn't lacking funds. What they sought was his endorsement to start their mosquito coil venture.

Thinking of how Jacques, his six-year-old godson, was already learning the ropes of business, Joe laughed and nodded, saying, "Alright then, go for it. I'll place an order—start by meeting Sangha Town's needs.

Work hard. If you lack expertise, hire someone—don't only think about making money. Learn to share wealth instead."

Gino, elated, replied, "I understand! We plan to outsource the early processes and buy a mosquito coil machine ourselves.

I've done online research—the machines aren't too pricey...

Then we'll hand over the produced mosquito coils to Auntie Zhao. This way, everyone can make some money."

Joe Ga looked at Gino, realizing he was a "low-budget Africa Army." Smiling, he said, "Building a strong supply chain will determine how big your business becomes!

Keep it up, kid!"
