Chapter 388 Xu Fei: Call me a crude oil tycoon from now on

The North American giant cargo ship that ran aground in the Strait of Malaya was indeed ordered to be sunk by the North American Military Department.

Because Raymond received reliable information from the inside, saying that the Libyan First and Second Sea Departments were under siege by the United Navy and were unable to support themselves.

In order to turn the tide of the war, Kafiza transferred the oil fields in Algeria to the massive "German debt" obtained by the Iron Sheet Company, and replaced three Tiberium-class destroyers with Foreman.

Since Gibraltar is controlled by North America, the warships of the Port of Hamburg-Foreman No. 15 Shipyard cannot be sent to Libya, and the Austin-Foreman No. [-] Shipyard is mainly responsible for [-] orders from North America.

The German North Army transferred three active Tiberium-class destroyers responsible for the stability of Southeast Asia from the Foreman No. [-] Shipyard in the northeast corner of the Philippines.

Active warships can be put into the battlefield directly without outfitting, and after Libya obtains these three arsenal ships, it is very likely that they will appear behind the Mediterranean United Navy with the help of the German North Navy logistics in the Red Sea area.

In general, the threat is great.

So Lei Meng contacted and was stationed in Sangeyang, responsible for supporting the fleet in the Afghan area, and asked the other party to send torpedo boats to start operations overnight.

"The Maliu Strait is blocked, and the price of crude oil has risen. I want to come to my brother-Xu, and he is already jumping and cursing in anger."

After receiving the news that the North American Fleet of Sangeyang had completed its mission, after confirming that the Strait of Malacca was really blocked, Lei Meng lit a cigar comfortably and looked back at his pet dogs.

The latter grinned, no matter how you looked at it, he looked like a dog dealer who had succeeded in plotting.

Raymond rubbed his eyes and turned his head again. The pet dogs either dozed off, combed their hair, or just idly dazed, nothing unusual.

"It must be that I have been too tired recently and have hallucinations."

Suddenly, the female secretary of the Chief of Defense walked in quickly, wearing golden curly curls and high heels.

"General, two freighters from Jamaica rear-ended in the Panama Canal, causing the route to be blocked, and the specific recovery time cannot be determined for the time being. Rand Corporation believes that the current situation on the home planet is complicated, and we should not ignore this incident."

"Yes, I think so too."

Lei Meng took the script and read it carefully.

North Germany's militarism led to financial jeopardy.

However, Debei has not yet realized the transformation of "electric power", and it still needs a large amount of crude oil.

Therefore, Xu Fei tried every means to hope that the price of crude oil would come down.

It’s a pity that the U.S. dollar is linked to crude oil. North American capital certainly does not want crude oil to plummet. In response to the collapse of crude oil stocks, OPEC announced a production cut the year before last. Later, the war in West Asia continued, and it was too late to increase production.

Due to various reasons, the supply of crude oil is in short supply, and the price has been rising all the way, breaking through history several times.

Xu Fei couldn't wish more, and according to the other party's style of doing things, it is very likely that the pot will be smashed and the table will be thrown directly, so that everyone will stop playing.

The blocking of the Panama Canal this time is the prelude to turning the tables.

Lei Meng's thoughts turned sharply, and he saw through the essence of the matter, but he couldn't think of Xu Fei's next operation for the time being.

Because pulling up the price of crude oil is beneficial to the US dollar.

And if the price of crude oil is at its highest point, and the price of crude oil is pulled down again, Xu Fei will inevitably prepare a large amount of crude oil, causing the market to oversupply.

however.

The dual crude oil and gas pipelines of Debei and Ice Bear have been destroyed by North America.

The crude oil hoarded by Dongfang in the past three years has just been transferred to KS Group.

The crude oil in the hands of Iron Sheet Energy was also sold to TEP at a low price half a year ago, and then TEP was sold to Wajima Shinri Co., Ltd., which in turn was sold to Inagawa Chamber of Commerce.

Therefore, the vast majority of the crude oil spot in the world is in the hands of North America, and Xu Fei cannot achieve 'supply exceeds demand' at all.

"Could it be that Debei fully realizes electric power?"

"Impossible, it takes not only time, but also the market."

"Or, Germany has secretly hoarded a large amount of crude oil?"

"It's even more impossible. The Five Eyes alliance is everywhere. If a large amount of crude oil is hoarded, Germany will definitely not be able to hide from its own intelligence system."

"Besides, if Germany has oil, why bother to take the risk of developing a rocket fighter that uses solid fuel..."

"No, there must be something wrong."

The more Lei Meng thought about it, the more he became sure that Xu Fei would definitely crash the crude oil market in the future.

The problem is, it still can't grasp the key point.

Raymond was in a daze for a long time, and finally chose to 'examine a higher level'.

That is the relationship between North America and North Germany.

Although North America and North Germany are in a competitive relationship, as the German North generals visited North America, and Xiaobu visited Berlin in return, the two sides are no longer at war.

The reason why North America is so complacent is because of the arms race in the European region, and the North American arms dealers made a lot of money, and the second is that North America secretly infiltrated the European alliance.

For example, Germany, dominated by the eight southern states, has all defected to North America, and will deal a fatal blow to North Germany at a critical moment.

You know, North America has 7 military bases in Germany, where 3.5 North American soldiers are stationed.

For example, the Czech Republic, Austria, and Switzerland, under the tyranny of North America, also agreed to the strategy of preventing Germany from jumping eastward at the critical moment of the war, so as to prevent Germany and the Balkans from joining together.

Another example is that Poland (East) has received a large amount of military aid from North America, and is always ready to recover Poland (Pseudo) in the southwest.

With the deployment of this series of plans, together with Denmark and Norway in the north, England and Ireland in the west, North Germany will be surrounded by layers of NATO.

At the same time, North America restarted the Davis Mengshan Air Force Base, and prepared three mixed aviation brigades. All fighters can enter the altitude of 1.5 meters to fight, and even fly to the altitude of 2.5 meters. to suppress.

It can be said that even without the use of peaceful weapons, North America is not afraid of North Korea.

Therefore, no matter how Xu Fei operates, even if the crude oil market collapses, it will not pose a threat to North America.

Well, think about it the other way around.

In the past year, the North American forces represented by JP Morgan have increasingly suppressed Jewish capital, making the oil king and the Rothschild family increasingly dissatisfied.

At present, JP Morgan can hardly compete with the combination of the other two capitals. If Xu Fei collapses the crude oil market, let alone whether Xu Fei will die, but the capital alliance led by JP Morgan will take the opportunity to plunder and annex the oil king and Rothschild The family business is growing rapidly.

This is a new round of capital reshuffle.

It is also a new round of economic crisis.

Raymond smoothed out his thoughts, threw the handwritten guesses into the shredder, and burned them.

He understood Xu Fei's operation at a higher level, that is, to win over friends in North America and suppress enemies in North America, so that his friend could not refuse this kind of draw.

But he still couldn't figure out Xu Fei's next actual operation, or how to make crude oil 'supply exceeds demand'.

Suddenly, the female secretary of the military department, who had left before, walked in again.

"General, the latest news is that the Inagawa Chamber of Commerce purchased 4500 million tons of industrial grain from the Iron Sheet Company for processing feed and refining alcohol, etc. Since Wajima has no foreign exchange, Inagawa Yuichiro used the low-priced purchase from Shinnichi Co., Ltd. large amounts of crude oil.”

"The transaction price?"

"280 dollars/barrel."

"Are you sure it's the price?"

"Yes, the Wajima Council has reported it."

Lei Meng no longer cared about how Xu Fei operated, motioned for the female secretary to leave, then picked up the communicator and contacted the master.

"Xu, I want to know how you obtained massive amounts of crude oil. Don't worry, the communicator is encrypted. I'm just curious and won't disrupt your deployment."

"Buy one, get ten thousand, take back all the crude oil that was sold to fool outsiders in order to lower the price of crude oil."

"???"

"What I mean is that although crude oil is sold, it is still stored in Osawa. Whether the Inagawa Chamber of Commerce can get the money to buy crude oil depends entirely on my personal mood. Maybe if I don't give it a penny, I can sell it Crude oil was sold, so the Inagawa Chamber of Commerce finally compromised, selling me one barrel and giving me ten thousand barrels."

"Fuck! You're so shameless!" (Too shameless)

"Old Lei, if this is leaked, the hound breeding base you invested in will be mine."

"Don't worry, I'm not that bad at keeping promises. Besides, I've always suspected that TEP is not separated from Ironhide."

"Are you kidding, James is still in the hospital after being bombed by me...the reason why he helped me was because I promised not to kill him."

"..."

"You have to believe in the strength of Team X, even far surpassing your Green Berets, Rangers, and SEALs, and even far surpassing Israel's Mossad, Shin Bet, and Bad Boys."

"..."

Lei Meng was silent for a moment, "Also, Xu, a magnitude 6 earthquake just hit Wajima, and two crude oil warehouses caught fire."

"Isn't this an experiment done by your North American base?"

"???"

"Old Lei, I'm not talking about you in North America, although high-tech countries have the ability to artificially create earthquakes, including injecting waste water from deep wells, gas explosion sources, underground blasting, and destroying granite inside volcanoes...

But the countries on the home planet signed the "Technical Convention Prohibiting Military or Other Ways to Change the Environment" as early as 1987. You can't violate it every year, can you?

Take a look at Wajima. From 1900 to 1999, there were only 300 earthquakes of magnitude 99 or above in a hundred years, but from 02 to 410, there were [-] earthquakes in just three years.

You North Americans have no bottom line! "

"Crooked? Old Lei, where is he?"

"Strange, it was a good chat, why did it hang up?"

Xu Fei put down the communicator, called out the translucent page, silently read the code name of Raymond's pet dog, and saw Raymond smashing the desk angrily through the small map.

"Hey, Lei Meng is like this, and the deputy director is also like this. You said that you are already old, why are you still so angry?"

"If the brain nerves are damaged by high blood pressure, won't you have to trouble me then?"

The next morning.

The doorbell of the village chief's house rang, and the mechanical vicious dog ran to open the door.

After a while.

The person in charge of Wajima Council appeared in the living room on the first floor.

Xu Fei was slightly taken aback, "Why are you here?"

"Mr. Xu, let's buy oil."

The price increase of crude oil is not terrible, what is terrible is the earthquake experiment in North America.

If there are three earthquakes a day, or even ten consecutive earthquakes.

I am afraid that the people of Wa Island would suspect that this is a natural phenomenon or a human factor.

Therefore, the Wajima Council quickly reached an agreement to buy!

At least crude oil is pegged to US dollars, and it is a high-consumption energy. If you stock up more, you will not lose money.

Xu Fei nodded, knowing that Daze crude oil was about to be sent away.

Although I feel a little bit sad, and I can't be sure when full electric power will be realized, but Ice Bear's crude oil self-production agreement and the many oil fields transferred from Libya to Germany are enough for emergency.

Moreover, crude oil cannot be stored for a long time, and the shelf life is at most three years. Since 99, the company has been purchasing aggressively. More and more storage capacity, now three years later, a lot of crude oil has begun to solidify.

'If the old ones don't go, the new ones won't come. '

Xu Fei took out his power bank and authorized the person in charge of Wajima Council to place crude oil purchase orders from the Daze e-commerce procurement system.

Then take out the resource list and let the other party offset it according to the total order amount.

For example, a barrel of crude oil is 1 U.S. dollars. Wajima does not need to pay cash, just take out graphite, rare earths, or precious metals corresponding to the payment.

You can even come up with technology, peace response devices, conduct valuations first, and then complete the transaction.

Soon, the person in charge of the Wajima Council drew up the first round of 1000 million barrels.

Seeing this, Xu Fei was rather dissatisfied, "That's all, do you think I'm a retailer?"

"Mr. Xu, our annual import volume is about 270 million barrels, which is already the total import volume for three years."

"The annual import volume is so small? The annual import volume of the East starts at 1 million barrels. You are a developed country."

"Yes, our per capita number of cars is higher than yours, but they are smaller. Besides, the fuel consumption of Wadao cars running from south to north is the same as that of your cars running from south to north. Can this be extended to ships? , aircraft, and chemicals, our demand is naturally not as good as yours."

"5000 million barrels, or you don't buy it."

"Mr. Xu, if we buy so much, it will rot in our hands."

"You can resell to Australia."

"Makes sense!"

Affected by "watching the Olympics carefully", although Xu Fei has a good relationship with the Australian media tycoon Murdoch, the relationship with Australia is not good, and he has not even started a trade relationship.

The relationship between Wajima and Australia can be described as better than better.

It is said that in order to deal with the complex situation of the home planet, Wajima has specially surrounded more than a dozen mines in Australia, and sent a large number of Wajima aspiring young people to mine.

The person in charge of the Wajima Council placed the order again, and when the work was done, he sat on the sofa and opened his mouth to speak.

Seeing this, Xu Fei picked up the white porcelain cup, "Just say what you want."

"Mr. Xu, I wonder if what you said before is true or false?"

"What?"

"West against Germany and North America, east to North America."

Xu Fei thought about it, and felt that he seemed to have said such a thing, "What do you mean?"

"We know that you are urging Wajima to take action, so you help solve the problem of food and crude oil dependence, but we are too deeply bound to North America, and now we are short of steel, coal, technology, and weapons. In addition, North America is financially , and also coerced Wajima, if we want to split, we must deal a heavy blow to the North American financial market."

Xu Fei put down the white porcelain cup silently, leaned back slightly, and looked at the person in charge of the Wa Island Council.

The latter became more and more respectful, "Mr. Xu, please rest assured that as long as the logistics problem is solved, our Japanese island can completely withstand the troops deployed by North America in the Pacific Ocean."

"I remember, when I said in the Himalayas, 'West against Germany and North America, east to North America', you Japanese islands didn't even respond."

"We dare not react, but it is different now. The North American economy is not good. We are required to increase military spending by US$30 billion a year, with a total of US$100 billion. In addition, we have to pay US$445 billion to purchase outdated fighter jets at Davis Mengshan Air Force Base. ...This is equivalent to swallowing one Bandai Group directly, and one in the next year, no matter how rich the country is, it cannot handle this kind of gameplay."

Xu Fei has no sense of trust in Wajima.

In particular, Director Xu has already been demonized inside Wajima. If he doesn't turn him into a monster, how can he swallow this breath.

But 'West against Germany and North America, east to North America'...

If Director Xu sent his troops to the west, he would play a game with Germany, and the Japanese army would go east and attack Pearl Harbor again.

Isn't there a 'new Pearl Harbor' movie?

Of course, the little devil is capricious, maybe the other party is what we think, let Dongfang and Debei break up, and the little devil will reap the benefits of the fisherman.

It's a pity that Debei is the headquarters of Director Xu.

Therefore, Xu Fei can gamble once.

Betting that the little devil has food and crude oil, and for the sake of the country's fortune, he dares to fight North America.

Even if we lose the bet, our family and Debei are actually acting. We wait for the little devil to be fooled and take the opportunity to invade again. At that time, we can completely focus on the overall situation and directly Boom it.

Xu Fei patted the shoulder of the person in charge of Wajima Council, "Yo Xi!"

The latter nodded knowingly, "Hi!"

Invisibly, the two reached a tacit agreement.

……

Xu Fei never sent off visiting guests.

But this time, unprecedentedly, the person in charge of the Wajima Council who was inexplicably excited was sent to the crown car parked at the gate of Xujiaxin Village.

"be careful on the road!"

"Xu Sang, don't worry!"

The Crown car spewed cold air and went straight to Daze International Airport.

Xu Fei watched for a long time, "It's unexpected that such a thing can be brought about invisibly."

"Sure enough, God bless the East!"

When he got home, the mechanical vicious dog was cleaning up the tea table, and directly threw the ceramic cup used by the head of Wajima Council into the trash can.

"It's too much, you have to put it away separately, wait for the other party to come again, and use this... This is called success or failure in the details."

Hearing this, the mechanical hound carried the ceramic cup to the toilet.

Xu Fei thought for a moment in the living room, then took out the power bank.

The person in charge of the Wajima Council purchased 5000 million barrels, which sounds like a lot, with a total value of at least US$160 billion.

But back then, crude oil was US$14/barrel, and the amount of domestic purchases were all 20 billion, 50 billion, and 100 billion.

This 5000 million barrels is only 7 million US dollars.

Therefore, its own crude oil storage capacity is an astronomical figure.

If you want to sell it quickly, you will have to find a few more buyers.

Xu Fei thought of the many foreign companies participating in the Lantern Festival, and immediately opened the address book to contact them one by one.

A moment later, Jp Morgan's heir, Jc Morgan, came to visit.

Xu Fei once met Jc Morgan at Morgan's family banquet. In other words, the reason why JP Morgan admired Director Xu was because he was worried that after his death, this grandson would not be able to control the Morgan family in a chaotic situation. .

After all, Director Xu is a world-class manager with a lot of resources in his hands.

If after JP Morgan's death, JC Morgan can't hold back the scene, just invite Director Xu to become the chairman of Morgan Capital, and everything will be settled in minutes.

As for whether luring wolves into the house will cause endless troubles...

Is it true that JP Morgan's Invincible Battalion and Bionicle Boris are decorations?

Don't drop the dog dealer every minute, okay?

Xu Fei opened the door and asked the other party to come in, and found that General Electric Chairman Welch, General Motors Chairman Smith, and Bain Capital Director Wanna (Romney resigned from the chairmanship in order to run for the governor of Massachusetts) were behind him. , but still the actual person in charge), Cui Dayong, chairman of KS Group, Nakaichiro, president of Shinri Co., Ltd., Yuichiro Inagawa, president of the Inagawa Chamber of Commerce...

"So tidy?"

"After the Lantern Festival, the West Factory and South Factory of the Daze Industrial Complex will deliver business, and customers need to re-submit orders for the next quarter."

"Almost forgot about this, come in quickly, we are all on our own, so there is no need to be so polite."

The secretary team was not there, and Xu Fei didn't want to serve tea and water, so he signaled Cui Dayong to get up and get busy.

This is a good job.

Even though Cui Dayong is the chairman of KS Group, he can be called the K of Spades in Nanbangzi, but facing a room full of top North American capital, he may not even be an ant.

And Cui Dayong served tea and poured water, and got acquainted with the top capitals in North America, which was not only convenient for doing business, but also conducive to the development of personal relationships.

Don't you see the envious eyes of Yuichiro Inagawa.

Xu Fei coughed, "Ichiro, go and cut some fruit."

"Okay, Mr. Xu!" Intermediary Ichiro of Xinri Co., Ltd. got up quickly and rushed to the kitchen.

Inagawa Yuichiro: "???"

JC Morgan didn't pay attention to this scene, "Mr. Xu, before coming here, my grandfather told me that the price of crude oil cannot fall below $100/barrel, otherwise it will get out of control."

"To be honest, I don't want crude oil to plummet, because I don't plan to buy it back after I sell it this time. From today on, everyone can call me a crude oil tycoon, because I will be an 'oil-producing country' from now on."
