Rebirth of Military Workers

Chapter 909

“Uh… this, prince, you can only talk to their person in charge.” Xie Kai was ecstatic in his heart, but on the surface he pretended to be helpless.

Nima, could it be said, took it?

In the Gulf countries, these are big dogs who sell oil for money all day long!

Absolutely, many people are stupid, so it is very profitable.

Sultan must have thought that he had a relationship with the River Crab Mercenary Group, and wanted to make other conditions. Xie Kai secretly thanked that he had firmly denied the relationship with the River Crab Mercenary Group from the beginning.

The purpose of the other party is certainly not small.

As for saving money, Xie Kai doesn’t think these big dogs care about money.

“His Royal Highness, didn’t the Americans agree to help escort? The oil tankers in Kuwait and Bahrain have always been escorted by their warships!” Xie Kai asked the prince with a look of embarrassment and weird heart.

According to the original history, the US fleet of 50 warships should be about to enter the Persian Gulf.

The Americans have not yet announced to the world that they will escort to the Persian Gulf. The entire Persian Gulf bears 40% of the US crude oil supply.

The Persians planted mines on the waterway, why didn’t the Americans come?

“They used oil tankers to detect mines in the front…” The prince did not hide it, and said to Xie Kai.

The reason for the whole thing was that even the 400,000-ton Bridgetown was followed by three US warships that were still struck by thunder, and Xie Kai had just extinguished the fire.

“Perhaps, we can fight for these oil-producing countries in the Middle East?” Xie Kai’s mind quickly flashed this idea.

However, this unrealistic idea was quickly dispelled.

China does not need to import too much oil, and most people in the country have only solved the problem of food and clothing. If they want to buy a car or something, it is still very far away. Only a few wealthy people can afford a car.

A large part of domestically produced crude oil is still exported.

What’s more, the United States will not tolerate it at all. After the fall of the Soviet Union, their family dominates. If there are conflicts between the Gulf countries and the United States, the world will not be so peaceful.

At that time, China’s economic development will also be severely affected.

“Compared with the US fleet, the Crab Mercenary Corps has no warships and no warplanes to escort here, but they performed very well. The Sea Giant, which helped me transport oil, has continuously recruited Persian fighters to drop anti-ship missiles and patrol. The attack of the boat was eventually repelled by the mercenaries…” Xie Kai suppressed the unrealistic thoughts in his heart, and said to the prince, “His Royal Highness, you are really a wise choice to find them to escort.”

Prince Sultan looked at Xie Kai, his eyes flickering, and finally didn’t say anything.

This makes Xie Kai a little bit disappointed, don’t you ask yourself to help you talk?

Although I was curious about how Sultan would talk to Liao Dong and the others, in order to prevent the other party from having more evidence to prove that he was the behind-the-scenes controller of the river crab mercenary group, Xie Kai ultimately did not participate in the negotiation between Sultan and Liao Dong. .

Just wait a moment, and wait for Liao Dong to negotiate with the other party, and then you will know the details.

“Mo Qi, did the Singapore Petroleum Corporation people come here?” Xie Kai asked Mo Qi.

Mo Qi nodded, “Here, I arrived the day before yesterday. I don’t know what they think. I didn’t contact Tan Ge and the others.”

“Don’t want to make money?” Xie Kai has been staring at the tanker these days, and really never thought that Singapore Petroleum Company did not want to give money.

Zhao Linchen is indeed entangled now.

The other side found a mercenary group to escort, and actually allowed hundreds of thousands of tons of oil tankers to pass safely, which means that there will be a steady flow of oil transportation in the future.

The situation of high international oil prices will soon change.

They signed a contract with the Chinese for 36.6 million barrels of crude oil for delivery in one month!

The price of 36 US dollars a barrel is 6 to 7 US dollars a barrel lower than in the international market. The problem is that if the international crude oil prices fall even more, they will lose money due to crude oil purchase prices as soon as construction starts.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“Manager Zhao, if you don’t want to, please tell us clearly that we are looking for other buyers. There are still many national oil tankers waiting in the Gulf of Oman.” Tan Lin looked at Zhao Linchen and suppressed his anger, “Whether it is transported to Amsterdam or New York , Or transfer directly from Oman, we can all receive the cash immediately.”

Zhao Linchen hurriedly shook his head, “Mr. Tan, we didn’t mean that…”

“Isn’t that? According to the contract, the ship to the Gulf of Oman, as long as it is out of the control of the Persians, the settlement will be settled. Now the Sea Giant has stopped.” It was originally Xie Kai’s money, and Tan Lin didn’t need to be so active.

However, he still has something to ask Xie Kai to help.

Zhao Linchen really wants to go back, “As more and more crude oil is shipped out of the Persian Gulf, international oil prices will be severely impacted…”

“What do you mean, you want to re-negotiate the price?” Zhang Rui asked with a smile, “Or, you can try to transport the oil yourself. Two days ago, the 400,000-ton Bridgetown in Kuwait was hit hard by a mine. Manager Zhao hasn’t heard of it, right?”

This is what Zhao Linchen struggled with.

I am afraid that too much crude oil will be shipped out, which will cause prices in the international market to fall sharply, and I am afraid that crude oil will not be available.

The oil tanker Bridgetown struck a mine, which made more tankers and merchant ships afraid to enter the Persian Gulf again. The Omani capital Muscat was full of huge ships outside the port of Muscat.

Zhao Linchen did not speak.

That’s what he meant. If the price of oil can be lowered by a few more dollars, at the risk of it, it can be settled immediately.

“Price reduction? Impossible! Many transportation companies here transport oil by themselves, telling Zhao Linchen that they will sell the oil to those gambling transportation companies within 2 hours without payment.” Xie Kai specifically asked Tan Lin, as if What he was worried at first, Zhao Linchen hoped to lower the price and sign the contract again.

This kind of person wants to take advantage but doesn’t want to take risks. Is it possible?

“Then I will let people go to the dock to let out the wind?” Tan Lin asked.

Xie Kai thought for a while and shook his head, “No, you can directly find people from the mercenary group. There are a lot of tankers looking for them these days. Let them tell the owners that the oil we shipped can be directly transferred to them at sea. , The premise is to give money first!”

Internationally, in order to pass on risks, oil refining companies generally settle settlements based on the arrival price; and countries that export oil, they build their own transport fleets. For example, Kuwait has 11 supertankers and Saudi Arabia has 19. Other countries have supertankers of varying numbers.

More are leased by shipping companies from shipping companies.

When oil exporting countries cooperate with small transportation companies, they always settle in advance, but small companies don’t have to pay.

The entire settlement process is very complicated.

The transportation company is not only responsible for transportation. Once there is a problem in the transportation process, it will lead to the loss of money. This is also the reason why Oman is currently full of huge ships overseas.

Xie Kai had originally prevented Singapore Petroleum from not giving money.

Soon, because of the breach of contract by the Singapore Refining Company, the Sea Giant, which transported 566,000 tons of crude oil, was about to transfer the crude oil on board to other transportation companies.

The people of Zhao Linchen received the news soon.

“Mr. Zhao, we must come up with ideas as soon as possible. Once they transfer the crude oil to other companies, our start of construction will be seriously affected…” The assistant reminded Zhao Linchen, who was constantly smoking.

“They are just a bunch of rascals!” Zhao Linchen scolded, “Who said we don’t want to break the contract?”

The assistant wanted to remind Zhao Linchen that if it hadn’t been for him to temporarily lower the price and refuse to pay, there would not be such a problem.

If the other party dares to sell at a price that is more than 15% lower than the international crude oil price, it will definitely not take the usual path.

When Zhao Linchen went to find Tan Lin, Tan Lin was negotiating with several transportation companies about the transfer of crude oil from the Sea Giant. Zhao Linchen was taken to the office by Zhang Rui, and he sat next to him and listened.

The more I listen, the more anxious.

“Mr. Tan, are you unkind like this? We have signed a contract, and we want all the crude oil!” Zhao Linchen saw the managers of several European and American companies fighting over and over, and he immediately spoke.

“You signed the contract? It should be settled long ago! But not now. Why don’t you let us go?”

“We talk about business, what do you care about?”

“Get out if you can’t afford it!”

Tan Lin is basically looking for some small transportation companies from Europe and the United States, and they don’t mind making extra money.

The most dangerous waterways have been completed, and the other party only needs 36 US dollars a barrel. Even if oil is shipped from the Persian Gulf every day, they dare not take risks.

This is an opportunity to make a fortune.

Oil tankers of tens of thousands of tons can transport dozens of millions of barrels of crude oil at a time. This is a profit of millions of dollars. Who wants to give up?

Therefore, Zhao Linchen became a target of public criticism.

“Okay, okay, oil, everyone can get it, first prepare the money, whoever gives the money first, sell the oil to whoever!” Several people from small companies suddenly cheered and shouted to sign the contract.

Tan Lin demanded that the money be settled as soon as the contract was signed, so that they could raise money first.

“Tan Lin, you can’t do this! I want to see your boss.” Zhao Linchen was anxious.

The crude oil was transported just as soon as it was seen.

Regardless of how much oil can be transported from the Persian Gulf, at least the crude oil from the Sea Giant is indispensable.

“Manager Zhao, I heard that you want to re-negotiate the price? I’m very sorry, I’m very busy now.” Xie Kai saw Zhao Linchen’s first sentence.

Zhao Linchen ignored the embarrassment, “Before our company did say that it would re-negotiate, after my efforts, the company’s board of directors agreed to trade in accordance with the original contract…”

“The Sea Giant is parked at sea. Whoever gives the money first will give the oil.” Xie Kai said, “Up to now, it has been one day late than the agreed time, and a 250,000-ton tanker is coming soon. …”

“All settled, give the money immediately!” Zhao Linchen knew the other party’s thoughts, but now, where is there still time for him to bargain?

The total is nearly 6 million barrels of crude oil. If they can’t use it up, they can also be sold to refining companies in Japan and South Korea. The tankers of the crude oil companies that have been negotiated are already waiting in Singapore Port.
