Mixed in the last days as a salted fish

Half an hour later, the Department of Energy arrived.

Surprisingly, Minister Yin, who received the news, actually stood in the cold wind to welcome the distinguished guests.

Seeing this, Zhang Hao couldn't help but thump in his heart.

There is an old saying: When you show courtesy to others, you must ask for something.

Mr. Wang still doesn't know what's going on, but Minister Yin's side has another moth.

New Year's Eve, a lot of bad things happen!

It affects the mood too much.

"Minister Yin, you are very polite."

Minister Yin grasped the opponent's hand: "Mr. Zhang, I'm finally looking forward to you. It's cold outside. Let's go in and talk."

Soon, the two returned to the minister's office.

The office is very simple, it can even be described as rudimentary. The only thing that stands out is a fully automatic coffee machine for home use.

Minister Yin picked up a palm-sized iron pot and introduced it with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, this is a little civet cat coffee that I managed to get through a lot of connections. You are lucky today."

After speaking, I started to fiddle with the coffee machine.

Zhang Hao hurriedly said politely: "Minister Yin, such a good coffee is almost perfect, why don't you keep it for yourself? To be honest, I don't like coffee, good or bad coffee tastes the same."

"How can this work? Good things should be shared with your best friends. You sit down for a while, and it will be quick, just 5 minutes."

Minister Yin quickened his movements.

Hearing the words "best friend", Zhang Hao couldn't help cursing secretly in his heart. Counting today, the two of them only met twice in total, and they didn't have a fatal friendship. How could it become "best friend?" friends"?

This was obviously intended for him.

After sitting down, Zhang Hao casually picked up a topic: "Minister Yin, did you send out the whale meat last time?"

"One-third was distributed in November, and one-third was also distributed in December. The rest will be distributed this afternoon as Spring Festival benefits."

Minister Yin replied.

Sending too much at one time will easily cause unnecessary trouble, and it will not be very noticeable if you share it several times.

"What's the reaction from the outside world? Is there anything unusual?"

Zhang Hao hurriedly asked.

Minister Yin laughed: "Mr. Zhang, take it to heart. Although the WFP has a high position and authority, our Ministry of Energy is not bad. They will never dare to trouble us. To be honest, it's not worth it for such a trivial matter. "

"It's fine as long as it's okay. I thought Director Yu was stern and selfless, and didn't care about human feelings at all?"

Zhang Hao said slightly sarcastically.

He still remembers the other party's aloof and aggressive appearance.

"I still know Lao Yu very well, and I have to say that he is definitely not a pedantic person, otherwise he would not be able to sit in his current position.

However, there is one thing that we must take as a warning, that is, never cross his red line. He will never compromise on major issues of right and wrong. "

"Oh, what is Director Yu's red line?"

Zhang Hao asked along the way.

"As long as it's not breaking the law, you can turn a blind eye and turn a blind eye, no matter if it's playing side-kicks or exploiting policy loopholes."

In fact, this one also applies to most official employees, and the same is never out of date.

"Isn't it illegal? That's how it is."

Zhang Hao was thoughtful.

Minister Yin lightly pressed the switch of the coffee machine, wiped his hands, and then sat across from Zhang Hao:

"Just like what we did last time, if you say that Lao Yu doesn't know anything, that's not necessarily the case. There is a large-scale monitoring team within the WFP, and it is generally difficult to bypass them."

Zhang Hao nodded: "So, this matter is completely over?"

"How can it be so simple? For this matter, our Ministry of Energy owes the WFP a favor, and we will definitely have to pay it back later." Minister Yin added.

"Why?" Zhang Hao asked curiously.

"It's just a small favor, and there are too many ways to repay it, maybe it's a matter of a few approval notes, maybe it's a matter of cooperating with the work, anyway, it's not difficult."

Some things are inconvenient for outsiders to know, so Minister Yin simply mentioned them in one sentence.

Zhang Hao tactfully did not continue to ask, but instead asked about investment in Australia: "Minister Yin, the competition for this auction should be fierce, right?"

"Of course, this time not only our local signups are enthusiastic, but also those big families and big financial groups overseas. Just yesterday, our Ministry of Energy received tens of thousands of consultation calls."

Minister Yin was smiling all over his face.

"Tsk tsk, it seems that your department is going to make a lot of money."

Zhang Hao couldn't help but envy.

According to public information, there are more than 350 mining areas under development in Australia, including coal and iron ore, and more than 70 kinds of mineral resources. It is known as a large area "sitting in the mine car".

This is a feast of wealth exceeding one trillion yuan.

"Mr. Zhang was joking. The money will not fall into our hands. It will be handed over to the Federation in the end." Minister Yin waved his hand, and then changed the subject: "I don't think Mr. Zhang will accept such a good opportunity." Did you miss it?"

Zhang Hao nodded: "I'm dissatisfied with you. I met a few like-minded seniors yesterday. After discussion, we plan to set up a new coal company and then charter a coal mine to test the waters."

"Really? Mr. Zhang, which coal mine are you looking at?" Minister Yin asked hastily.

"Yavingale Coal Mine."

Zhang Hao didn't go around in circles, and replied truthfully.

Minister Yin recalled it carefully, then frowned: "If I remember correctly, this coal mine should be just a small coal mine, right?"

"It's not too small. The total reserves are close to one billion tons. It's just that the development level is relatively low and it's not very famous."

Zhang Hao quickly explained.

"Mr. Zhang, please forgive me. Based on your strength, there is no problem at all in winning the Carmichael Coal Mine. Isn't it a little too conservative for the mere Avingal Valley Coal Mine?"

Minister Yin said with a puzzled face.

"Hey, it's definitely not just the Avingal Valley Coal Mine. Our real goal is to win the mining rights of the entire Tasmania." Zhang Hao thought for a while, and then hurriedly added: "Of course, it's only limited to coal mine exploration." right."

"Mr. Zhang, you...you have given us a big problem! This auction does not include the option of selling the prospecting rights."

Minister Yin put on a look of embarrassment.

"Can we discuss it? Since all coal mines can be auctioned, there is no reason why the prospecting rights can't be used?"

"If it's someone else, it's definitely not possible, but Zhang Dong, if you speak up, it should be fine."

As soon as Minister Yin finished speaking, he heard the "ding" of the coffee machine, indicating that the coffee was ready.

"Minister Yin, sit down, let me come!"

Zhang Hao hurried over and poured two cups of coffee.

Minister Yin couldn't wait to take the coffee and took a deep breath: "It smells so good!"

"It's really fragrant, but it's a pity that there is one less drink."

"Zhang Dong, I still have some stock here, and I will take half of it back when I leave next time."

Zhang Hao declined on the spot: "No need, I really don't like coffee, don't waste good things."

"What's the relationship between us? Why are you being so polite to me?"

"Minister Yin, I'm not being polite to you. In fact, my house is not short of coffee. Although there are no cats... high-end products such as civet coffee, there are still some general varieties in stock. When you run out of coffee here, I will I will also send you a few cans of authentic Blue Mountain coffee."

"Okay, I'll give you the civet cat coffee, and you will give me the blue mountain coffee in return. This is called reciprocity, so it's settled." Minister Yin waved his hand impatiently.

Zhang Hao couldn't shirk it, so he had no choice but to agree.
