Chapter 110: Borrowing Chickens to Lay Eggs

Jahra is a central town in Kuwait, located about 50 km west of Kuwait City, where fruit and vegetable production is the main agricultural area in Kuwait.

Although Kuwait has the money to import all kinds of food from abroad, fruits and vegetables are still fresh, so in Jahra, farmers pay a lot of money to grow fruits and vegetables, which are quite expensive even with the subsidy of the political axe. Needless to say, almost all of the fresh water used to grow these crops is imported from Iraq. Although the desalination plant has already begun, it is only just enough for Kuwait City.

Compared to the desert desert, it is a slightly more populated area.

The convoy did not enter the town, but in the southeast corner, there was a private residence of Fahd, and the convoy drove directly into the residence.

There are rich countries in the Middle East, and Zhang Feng is only in China, and he already feels that his villa is beautiful enough, right? However, compared to here, it is only a small thing.

Here, where ordinary Kuwaiti people can build villas, as a prince, it is naturally even more stylish, Zhang Feng remembered for a moment, it was almost the same as the prince's mansion in ancient China.

Although there was a lack of fresh water, there was a huge fountain at the entrance, and after a few minutes of driving in, I came to a building.

As soon as the car stopped, a servant standing at the door had already stepped forward and opened the door.

Zhang Feng smiled and walked into the hall with Prince Fahd.

Zhang Feng didn't deliberately look around, it seemed too rude, but he was still very curious, the place where the wall and the floor meet, the glittering, can't it really be gold? Even if it's gold-plated, that's a lot of investment.

Walk down the hall to a smaller meeting room, followed by Tariq and Hikmat.

And Fahd, just with a secretary beside him, this secretary is dressed as a typical Arab, covering his face with a silk scarf, and he didn't see whether he looked very good-looking, but that figure, although it was hidden under the Arab robe, Zhang Feng could also guess that the curve should be very attractive.

However, this has nothing to do with himself, Zhang Feng thought that his trip had an important purpose.

"A few days ago, I received a message from His Excellency Cusay, saying that this trip has an important mission, so I have been looking forward to it, this room is very quiet, and a comprehensive inspection has been done, there is no eavesdropping equipment, what is the matter, please tell your Excellency Cusay." Prince Fahd said.

"Your Royal Highness, you have thought so thoughtfully," Zhang Feng said, "This time I came to have a deal, and I want to do it with our Muslim brothers, Kuwait." ”

Doing business? Fahd's eyes lit up: "What's there, please tell your Excellency Qusay." ”

"As you know, we have been defending the peace of our Arab world, fighting against the theocracy of Ayatollah Khomeini, who is clamoring for the export of revolution, although we have won, but our contribution is also huge, especially that we need money to fight the war, we have been fighting a war for more than a year, the treasury has been empty, the foreign exchange reserves have been exhausted, but we still have to buy a lot of weapons, so our funds have been cut off." Zhang Feng said.

"I know this, I have discussed with the emir, that we can give our good brothers war loans, low or no interest. Moreover, I am also in contact with Saudi Arabia, hoping that they will also lend a helping hand and do our part to help Iraq. Fahd said.

Zhang Feng listened and was very moved, this Prince Fahd, it can be said, is sparing no effort to support the struggle in Iraq, and he also noticed that when he was mentioning Saudi Arabia, the secretary next to him, his eyes suddenly lit up, and in that moment, Zhang Feng captured it.

Who is this secretary? Zhang Feng began to be a little curious.

"Thank you Your Highness for your support to us, however, you also know that although we are Muslim brothers, we always have to pay off our debts, although there is no interest, but the war has done great damage to Iraq's economy, and our oil production has begun to be reduced, so when the war is over, we will carry out economic construction and compensate the families of the soldiers who have died, and the expenses are still very large, so we don't want to borrow money to pay off our debts unless we have to." After Zhang Feng finished speaking, he smiled: "When the time comes, I'm afraid I won't even be able to pay back my underwear!" ”

"Flutter...," the secretary next to him laughed.

Fahd turned back sternly, and the secretary next to him quickly said, "I'm sorry." "The voice is very sweet.

"Your Excellency Qusay, your worries are unfounded, the loan is interest-free, and besides, it can be given later." Fahd said.

Zhang Feng knows that the current Fahd is sincerely supporting Iraq, so he is more confident in the purpose of his visit.

"I know, so, I'm here to bring a good way for both sides to make a profit, as long as you can agree, convince the emir to agree, then, we can both earn a lot of dollars." Zhang Feng said.

"Oh?" Fahd was a little interested and said, "Then you can talk about it." ”

"You also know that we have now taken Abadan, and you should also know that there is a huge oil refinery in Abadan, and its refining capacity accounts for 60 percent of the whole of Iran."

"Of course I know, so this time against Abadan is definitely a huge victory." Fahd said, suddenly, something came to mind: "You won't be..."

"Yes, that's what I mean, since it's already in our hands, an empty city, it's useless for us, let those equipment run and let the bubbling crude oil turn into refined oil, so that our victory can be transformed into tangible benefits." Zhang Feng said: "Fighting a war purely for the sake of fighting a war is very wasteful, and in the end, it is still for profit. ”

Fahd said: "It's a very good idea, but what does it have to do with us in Kuwait? ”

"You also know that the output of our Basra oil field is not very large, most of it can be refined into refined oil through the Basra refinery, and the refining capacity of the Abadan refinery is 30 million tons, even if it is only half of the operation, there are more than 10 million tons, without crude oil, what do we refine?" Zhang Feng asked.

Fahd nodded: "So what do you mean?" ”

"There is an old Chinese saying that it is called borrowing a chicken to lay eggs, that is, borrowing a chicken from a neighbor, laying 100 eggs, and then, returning 50 eggs as interest, you have 50 eggs left." Zhang Feng said: "At present, the chicken we want to borrow is Kuwait's crude oil, and the eggs produced are refined oil. ”

Zhang Feng's analogy is very appropriate, and Fahd immediately understood the other party's intention, that is, to use Kuwaiti crude oil to transport it to Abadan to refine it into refined oil and earn the price difference.

After speaking, Zhang Feng looked at Fahd's expression, and this man who was about thirty years old and very wise began to ponder.

Zhang Feng didn't bother him, took the coffee brought by the secretary just now, and tasted it carefully.

Behind him, Tariq and Hekmat, both of whom began to become impatient, were both thinking about how they would persuade Prince Fahd if he did not agree.
