"Uh...... This, Lord Wang, you can only talk to the person in charge of them. Xie Kai was ecstatic in his heart, but on the surface, he pretended to be powerless.

Nima, do you say, take it?

The Gulf countries, these are all big dogs, selling oil all day long for money!

Definitely a lot of money is stupid, and it's good to make money.

Sultan must have thought that he had something to do with the River Crab Mercenary Group and wanted to put forward other conditions, Xie Kai secretly congratulated himself that he had resolutely denied his relationship with the River Crab Mercenary Group from the beginning.

The other party's purpose is certainly not small.

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

"Your Highness, didn't the Americans agree to help escort the ship? For a long time, the oil tankers in Kuwait and Bahrain have been escorted by their warships!" Xie Kai asked when he saw that the prince was embarrassed and felt strange in his heart.

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

At present, the Americans have not announced to the whole world that they will escort ships in the Persian Gulf, and the entire Persian Gulf is responsible for 40% of the crude oil supply of the United States.

The Persians laid mines on the fairway, why didn't the Americans come yet?

"They used oil tankers to detect mines in front...... "The prince didn't hide it, and said to Xie Kai.

The reason for the whole thing, even the 400,000-ton Bridgerton followed by three US warships was still hit by mines, and Xie Kai told Xie Kai about the fire just extinguished.

"Perhaps, we can win over these oil-producing countries in the Middle East?" the thought quickly flashed through Xie Kai's mind.

However, this unrealistic idea was quickly dispelled.

China doesn't need to import too much oil at all, and most people in the country have only solved the problem of food and clothing, and it is still a long way to buy a car or something, and only a few wealthy people can afford to buy a car.

A large part of the crude oil produced in China is still exported.

What's more, the United States will not tolerate it at all, after the fall of the Soviet Union, they are the only one, and if there is really a contradiction 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 seriously affected.

"Compared with the U.S. fleet, although the River Crab Mercenary Regiment has no warships and no fighters to escort here, they are performing very well. The Sea Giant, which helped me carry oil, continuously attracted attacks from Persian fighters dropping anti-ship missiles and armed patrol boats, but was finally repelled by the mercenaries......" Xie Kai put down the unrealistic thoughts in his heart and said to the prince, "Your Highness, it is really a wise choice for you to ask them to escort you." ”

Prince Sultan looked at Xie Kai, his eyes kept flashing, and finally he didn't say anything.

This made Xie Kai a little disappointed, didn't he ask himself to help talk?

Although he was curious about how Sultan would talk to Liao Dong and them, in order to avoid more evidence that the other party had more evidence to prove that he was the behind-the-scenes controller of the River Crab Mercenary Group, Xie Kai finally did not participate in the negotiations between Sultan and Liao Dong.

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

"Mozi, are you here?" Xie Kai asked Moqi.

Mo Qi nodded, "Here, I arrived the day before yesterday, I don't know what they think, I didn't contact Brother Tan and them." ”

"Don't want to make money?" Xie Kai has been staring at the oil tanker these days, and he really hasn't thought that the Singapore Oil Company doesn't want to give money.

The current Zhao Linchen is indeed entangled.

The other party found a mercenary group to escort and actually let hundreds of thousands of tons of oil tankers pass through safely, which means that there will be a steady stream 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 to be delivered in one month!

The price of $36 a barrel is 6~7 US dollars a barrel lower than that in the international market, and the problem is that if the international crude oil price falls even more, they will lose money because of the crude oil purchase price when they first start construction.

"Manager Zhao, if you don't want to, please let us know, we are looking for other buyers. There are still many national 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 directly transshipped from Oman, we can receive the cash immediately." ”

Zhao Linchen hurriedly shook his head, "Mr. Tan, we didn't mean that......"

According to the contract, the ship to the Gulf of Oman was settled as soon as it was out of the control of the Persians, and now the Sea Giant has stopped. "Originally, it was 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 regret it, "as more and more crude oil is shipped out of the Persian Gulf, international oil prices will be seriously impacted......

"What do you mean, you want to renegotiate the price?" Zhang Rui asked with a smile, "Or, you can try to transport the oil yourself." Two days ago, Kuwait's 400,000-ton Bridgerton was hit by a mine, Manager Zhao wouldn't have heard of it, right?"

Zhao Linchen is entangled in this.

I am afraid that too much crude oil will cause the price in the international market to fall sharply, and I am afraid that I will not be able to get crude oil.

The oil tanker Bridgerton was struck by a mine, which made more oil tankers and merchant ships dare not enter the Persian Gulf again, and huge ships were parked outside the port of Muscat, the capital of Oman.

Zhao Linchen didn't speak.

That's what he meant, if the price of oil could be lowered by a few more dollars, and at the risk, it could be settled immediately.

Many transportation companies here transport oil by themselves, telling Zhao Linchen that they would sell oil to those gambling transportation companies without payment within two hours. Xie Kai specifically asked Tan Lin, as he was worried at the beginning, Zhao Linchen wanted to lower the price and re-sign the contract.

This kind of person wants to take advantage and doesn't want to take risks, is it possible?

"Then I'll 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 the people of the mercenary group, there are a lot of oil tankers looking for them these days, and directly let them tell those ship owners that the oil we ship can be directly transferred to them at sea, provided that the money is given first!"

Internationally, in order to pass on the risk, oil refining companies generally settle at the port price, while oil exporting countries, the stronger ones build their own transport fleets, for example, Kuwait has 11 supertankers, Saudi Arabia has 19, and other countries have a varying number of supertankers.

More are leased by shipping companies from shipping companies.

When oil-exporting countries cooperate with small transportation companies, they are settled in advance, but the small companies do not have to pay.

The entire settlement process is very complex.

The transport company is not only responsible for transportation, once there is a problem in the transportation process, it will lead to the loss of money, which is why Oman is currently full of huge ships parked overseas.

Xie Kai had been guarding against the Singapore Petroleum Company not giving money.

Soon, rumors spread that the Sea Giant, which had transported 566,000 tons of crude oil, was ready to transfer the crude oil on board to other shipping companies because of the default of the Singapore refining company.

Zhao Linchen's people soon received the news.

"Mr. Zhao, we must come up with an idea as soon as possible, once they transfer the crude oil to other companies, our operation will be seriously affected......" The assistant reminded Zhao Linchen, who was anxious and kept smoking.

"They're just a bunch of scoundrels!" Zhao Linchen scolded, "Who said we don't want to break the contract?"

The assistant wanted to remind Zhao Linchen that if he hadn't temporarily wanted to lower the price and refused to pay, there would have been no such 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 people from the transportation company, and the content was to transfer the crude oil of the Sea Giant, and Zhao Linchen was taken to the company by Zhang Rui, so he sat next to him and listened.

The more I listened, the more anxious I became.

"Mr. Tan, you are not kind like this, right? We have signed a contract, and we want all the crude oil!" Zhao Linchen saw that the managers of several companies in Europe and the United States were constantly fighting, and he couldn't hold his breath, so he immediately spoke.

"You signed the contract, it should have been settled a long time ago! But now you don't, why don't you let us take it away?"

"Let's talk about business, what do you care?"

"If you can't afford to pay, get out!"

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

The most dangerous shipping lanes have already been completed, and the other side only costs $36 a barrel, even if oil is transported from the Persian Gulf every day, they dare not risk it.

It's an opportunity to make a fortune.

An oil tanker of tens of thousands of tons can transport tens of millions of barrels of crude oil at a time, which is a profit of millions of dollars, who wants to give it up?

Therefore, Zhao Linchen became the target of public criticism.

"Okay, okay, oil, everyone can get it, prepare the money first, whoever gives the money first, the oil will be sold to whom!" Several people from the small company suddenly cheered and shouted to sign the contract.

Tan Lin demanded that the money be settled immediately after signing the contract, and let them each go to raise money first.

"Tan Lin, you can't do this! I want to see your boss. Zhao Linchen was in a hurry.

The crude oil was transported out.

How much oil can be transported out of the Persian Gulf, let's not think about it for a while, at least the crude oil of the Sea Giant, it is indispensable.

"Manager Zhao, I heard that you want to renegotiate the price? I'm very sorry, I'm very busy right now. Xie Kai's first sentence when he saw Zhao Linchen was this.

Zhao Linchen also ignored the embarrassment, "Before our company did say that it would renegotiate the price, after my efforts, the company's board of directors agreed to trade according to the original contract......"

"The Sea Giant is parked at sea, and whoever gives the money first, the oil will be given to whomever he wants. Xie Kai said, "By now, it has been a day later than the agreed time, and there is a 250,000-ton oil tanker that is about to arrive......

"Settle it all and give the money immediately!" Zhao Linchen knew the other party's thoughts, but now, where would he have time to bargain with him?

The total amount of crude oil is nearly 6 million barrels, and if they can't use it, they can also resell it to oil refining companies in Japan and South Korea, and the oil tankers of the crude oil companies that have been negotiated before are already waiting in the port of Singapore.
