Plagiarism - 490 to six thousand kilograms of platinum

Tan Jiabao closed his eyes and thought for a while, then said: "The oil in the North Sea is of great significance to the UK and even the whole of Europe. The current UK is actually a strong foreign country, and they are most eager to develop this piece of oil and natural gas. However, funds and Technology has limited their development. Let’s say, we and bp each contribute 35% of the funds, they produce oil fields, we provide technology, and we each hold 40% of the shares, and the other % of the shares are scattered to other large oil companies in the world If they go to the company, they will pay 30% of the funds. If we find oil and gas fields in the future, we must allocate them according to our previous plan. This is our final bottom line. If they still disagree, let them find it slowly. Well, we don't want it. By the way, don't forget that we must strictly control our technology and new equipment, and don't let them learn it easily."

"Haha, many of our things need to be controlled by computers. How could they learn these things so quickly? Even if we found the Fortis oil field and the Brent super oil and gas field, we have already reserved a hand. Except for the 2-3 people we trust the most, no one else knows." Best laughed triumphantly.

Christopher also laughed and said: "Actually, the British are too arrogant. Even if they find these two large oil and gas fields by themselves, they can't eat them for a while. They still have to seek bidding and cooperation from peers around the world. In this way For one thing, what they got may not have worked so much with us."

The North Sea is rich in oil and gas resources, and its submarine oil reserves rank third in the world after the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Maracaibo.This has huge implications for oil-poor Western Europe.Therefore, although the weather conditions in the North Sea area are very harsh, with rainy days and high winds and waves for more than 23 hours a year, the coastal countries are still determined to explore and mine.At present, a large number of oil and gas resources on the continental shelf of the North Sea are mainly concentrated in the waters belonging to the United Kingdom and Norway, and some larger oil and gas resources will go to deeper waters.Oil and gas exploration and development in the North Sea have not all been smooth sailing.The North Sea is one of the sea areas with the worst sea conditions in the world. In the past few decades, there have been many bad accidents on drilling platforms and oil production platforms. On December 1965, 12, bp discovered that the semi-submersible drilling unit "Sea Gem" in the North Sea's first gas field, the Xisol gas field, was about to be relocated when it encountered a severe storm and the platform sank, killing 22 people. .

At this time, the annual consumption of oil in the UK was about 1 million tons, and a large amount of foreign exchange was spent on importing oil. In 1965, its foreign exchange expenditure on oil purchases was 41.1 billion U.S. dollars, which soared to 1967 billion U.S. dollars in 106.2, and the foreign trade deficit surged from 87 billion U.S. dollars to 160 billion U.S. dollars. billion U.S. dollars, if it is affected by the oil crisis, the loss of the United Kingdom will be incalculable.

It is from this aspect that Tan Jiabao believes that the British government will not easily give up the opportunity to cooperate with Tan Jiabao, and they will definitely make appropriate concessions.

With Tan Jiabao's entrustment, Christopher and Best went to the bp headquarters to negotiate with confidence.

Tan Jiabao, who was exhausted from the journey, only yawned at this time and went to bed to rest.

***************

Located in the Cordillera Mountains in the center of Luzon Island in the Philippines, there are many peaks with an elevation of more than 1000 meters. The terraced fields and Baguio summer resort here are famous all over the world.

On an unknown mountain peak, 500 capable black men have been digging here for several days with modern excavating machines, and now they can finally take a breath, because they have dug out a cave, which is exactly what Qi Siming needs where.

The cave was sealed off by a large iron gate.

"F*ck, let me take a look, what kind of mechanism is this!" Yang Dihu's eyes were flooded, and he had a lot of experience in mechanism locks.Before that, he had successfully cracked three mechanisms and dug out three treasures.

He knocked on the door a few times with an iron rod, and then searched carefully on the rocks near the iron door with a shovel.One meter away from the iron gate, he carefully scraped away a raised spot, revealing a disc the size of a steering wheel.

Yang Dihu turned it hard, and there was a "squeak" sound from the iron door, and dust and dirt fell from it.Yang Dihu continued to turn, and the 30cm iron gate slowly opened!

"Oh, it's opened again!" A group of people on the mountain exclaimed excitedly, and Marcos was one of them.

"Captain Qi, can we go in?" Marcos asked Qi Siming beside him.

Qi Siming shook his head and said, "Wait a while, wait until our people go in and check to see if there is any harmful gas or other organs."

Jin Yusong and Yang Dihu walked in slowly, wearing lighted steel helmets and gas masks, holding pistols and some instruments.

Maybe it's because he has watched too many movies and novels. Tan Jiabao always feels that the place where the treasure is buried is usually guarded by poisonous gas, giant pythons, organs and monsters.Therefore, he asked his men to be cautious first.

More than 10 minutes later, Jin Yusong came out, took off his helmet and gas mask, and waved his arm.You know, they can go in.

Marcos' soldiers guarded the entrance of the cave, and Marcos, Qi Siming and others entered the cave with flashlights.

The cave was very large, and in the depths of the cave, they saw hundreds of tin boxes neatly built into a thick wall.

Yang Dihu found a staircase. He climbed up and took down a heavy box, then opened the copper lock, and a dim white light immediately emitted from the box.

"Oh, it's a silver bar!" Marcos showed a slightly disappointed tone.

He casually took out a "silver bar" to look at, and then threw it into the box in disappointment. He said, "Open a few more boxes to see. It can't be all silver here."

Then I opened a few more boxes, which turned out to be full of such gleaming white things.

Jin Yusong took out one and examined it carefully, then sighed, "This kind of silver is not of high purity, and its color is gray, like an alloy with steel."

Marcos was even more disappointed. He said: "Unexpectedly, I came to the scene in person today, and what I saw was a pile of silver. Hey, look again to see if there is any gold."

"There are a total of 1000 boxes here, each weighing 60 kilograms, and a total of 6000 kilograms. We have opened almost 100 boxes, all of which are of this kind. Mr. President, do you want to give some to the President's wife?" Yang Dihu is the most A busy man, he jumped up and down, but he didn't find a box of gold.

Marcos shook his head and said: "No, Imelda doesn't like silver, especially this kind of silver with low purity. I guess, this is the metal used by the Japanese devils to make some kind of weapon. Hehe, wait a minute I'd better get some gold bars and some pearls, agates, jades, and emeralds to deal with Imelda."

No wonder Marcos was disappointed. Before that, they also found a 10-ton gold treasure. Agate, Jade and Emerald.

At this time, Corey Mawell ran in carelessly. He was assigned by Martinez Taylor to see why they hadn't moved for so long.

"Oh, sweetie! It's all platinum here today!" Corey Mauwell yelled, holding a platinum bar. "I've never seen a platinum bar before!"

"What did you say? These are platinum? Not silver bars or some kind of alloy? You didn't make a mistake?" Marcos also became excited, and he picked up a platinum bar again and looked at it carefully.

"Haha, do you think it is silver bars or some kind of alloy? You are all wrong. These things are not silver, let alone some kind of alloy, but platinum, which is more expensive than gold, and it is pt999 platinum! My family is open jewelry Shop, I have been exposed to these things since I was a child, and I can’t go wrong!” Corey Mawell said firmly.

"Hahaha..." Marcos and Jin Yusong all laughed.

In the 60s, neither Taiwan nor the Philippines had a high standard of living, and people had few opportunities to come into contact with precious metals.Humans' understanding and utilization of platinum is much later than gold, with a history of only about 00 years. Platinum in Asia is inherently scarce, so although Marcos is the president, he has a humble background. At this time, he has not come into contact with it. Platinum several times.When he saw so much "silver" turned into "platinum", he couldn't hide his joy anymore.

Qi Siming glared at Corey Mauwell, and then said: "Mr. President, order the goods, and then we will settle the accounts. After the accounts are settled, we will ship them away immediately."

Marcos didn't hesitate, he immediately ordered his men to go to order goods with Jin Yusong and the others.
