The strongest peasant city

Chapter 623 Zhu Mingyan's Condition

Harvey thought about it carefully, and what Zhu Mingyan said was really reasonable, he nodded helplessly and said: "Well, Mr. Ambassador, if you have any new cooperation intentions, you can just say it, as long as it is really right. My church, if it is beneficial to the people of our country, I will definitely cooperate with it!"

Zhu Mingyan smiled slightly and said, "That's right.

Today, Iraq has proven oil reserves of about 1000 billion barrels, accounting for [-] percent of the world's total oil reserves.

This is such a huge amount of wealth, but because of the limitation of Iraq's oil development and drilling capabilities, it can only be robbed by the people of M country. I think Mr. President must be very annoyed by this? "

Harvey gave a wry smile, shook his head and said, "Yes, I am really annoyed that the people from country M are robbing us of our oil, but the problem is, I will also be annoyed if you replace the people from country M with you Chinese people, what's the difference? ?"

Zhu Mingyan said: "I think Mr. President has misunderstood what I mean. My meaning is definitely not to coerce Mr. President to transfer the benefits that M people have obtained from Iraq to us. Such a thing is not what we advocate for peace and common development. Can do it!"

Harvey said "Oh..." and said, "Then what do you mean?"

"What I mean is that we will send experts and technicians to help you improve your oil drilling technology, but the oil extracted will be sent to us first. But the price must be determined by both of us. Have the right to speak.

Iraq is not allowed to stop oil transportation to China without authorization, and China will not suspend the introduction of oil from Iraq without reason.Both parties are mutually beneficial, what do you think of this? "Zhu Mingyan said with a smile.

Harvey pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "Nowadays, the global demand for oil is rising in a straight line, but oil is used less and less, and the preciousness of oil is constantly being highlighted.

As the largest and fastest-growing country in the world, China's demand for oil has increased significantly. The ambassador wants to turn Iraq into China's oil reserve base! "

Zhu Mingyan shook his head and said with a smile: "Mr. President, don't you think that the oil strategic partnership is more appropriate? What's more, compared with the robbing of the red fruits of the M country, isn't our doing so more conducive to the development of the Iraqi country? As the Iraqi country With the gradual maturity of oil technology and the continuous increase of daily output, in addition to meeting the needs of our country, Iraq will become a new strong competitor in the international market. Like Saudi Arabia, it will usher in the rapid development of the country. Why? Wouldn't it be fun to do it?"

Harvey said rationally: "The ambassador is right. This cooperation has indeed given the Iraqi country a chance to develop, but compared to the benefits you Huaxia will gain from it, it is simply a drop in the bucket.

Not to mention the huge economic benefits you can grab, but the political significance is no small matter.China is a big oil importer, and 50.00% of its oil needs to be imported. This undoubtedly greatly increases the sensitivity of the Chinese government to the political situation in the world.

Once a large-scale war breaks out, Huaxia's oil demand will be curbed immediately, as if being choked by someone's throat.

But now, with our Iraqi oil partner, Huaxia can sit back and relax.

As long as the oil in Iraq can be exploited, China will not have to worry about the oil problem for as many years.Even Huaxia can use this to greatly reduce its dependence on the world economy. No matter how the international oil price soars in the future, Huaxia can be a stable Diaoyutai.

Not only that, but the related oil industry will also gain strong and unparalleled competitiveness because the cost is much lower than that in the international market!Seriously speaking, it is huge profits! "

Harvey is not an idiot. He has three Ph.D. degrees in economics, law, and politics. Zhu Mingyan is not surprised to see so many of them.

Zhu Mingyan did not argue at all, spread his hands, and said with a smile: "Since we have paid, we should also get it. If Mr. President thinks that we have received too much, he can choose not to cooperate with us!"

Harvey smiled wryly and said, "Yiguo has reached the point where it is today. Do I have any choice other than cooperation?"

Zhu Mingyan said lightly: "From Mr. President's words, I seem to have heard Mr. President's deep dissatisfaction, which makes me very disturbed! I hope Mr. President will not misunderstand that I am taking advantage of the fire..."

"There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. All politics is driven by profit. I know this very well! Besides, Huaxia's oil policy is much more civilized than that of country M! I can even agree to the request of country M, which is close to robbery. What's more, your proposal is indeed a mutually beneficial cooperation, how can I feel dissatisfied? If possible, I want to reach an agreement with you as soon as possible, so that the people of Iraq can fill their stomachs earlier!"

Harvey said calmly.

"Mr. President's love for the people, humanity, I deeply admire. Don't worry, the representatives of Huaxia Petroleum Group have arrived in Iraq. As long as Mr. President is convenient, they can sign the contract at any time!"

Harvey nodded and said, "Very good! Mr. Ambassador, don't you have any other requests?"

Zhu Mingyan smiled wryly and said, "Now I feel that I am greedy. I am very sorry. Mr. President, I have one last request. I hope Mr. President can agree!"

Harvey frowned, and said in a deep voice: "I have already agreed to the most sensitive oil issue, what else can I not agree to? Mr. Ambassador, please tell me!"

Zhu Mingyan said slowly: "Mr. President, you also know that the situation in Iraq is very unstable, and oil fields are the best targets for terrorists.

Now that the two of us have reached an agreement to jointly develop the oil resources of Iraq, I hope that Mr. President will allow us, the Chinese People's Liberation Army, to enter Iraq to be responsible for the security of the oil fields! "

"What!? You Huaxia are going to send troops to Iraq!? This is impossible! Iraq has stationed American troops, which has already made us feel very shameful. If Huaxia also comes to station troops, then I will simply die in front of the people of the whole country!"

Harvey Zhai Zhu Mingyan seemed extremely excited about this request, and couldn't help shouting loudly.

Harvey's performance seemed to be within Zhu Mingyan's expectations, so Zhu Mingyan was not surprised at all. He waited until Harvey calmed down before Zhu Mingyan said with a smile: "Mr. President, take it easy... ..."

"This is aggression! How can I be quiet!?" Harvey said angrily.

Zhu Mingyan said with a smile: "Mr. President, listen to me, this is just our initial idea, but later on, we also found that this is indeed something wrong, so we came up with a second plan, which is to let the Iraqi government Come forward and demarcate the [-] square kilometers of the oil field as no man's land, prohibiting everyone from entering. Once an intruder is found, we have the right to kill it!"

Compared with the garrison plan, this plan is much easier to accept. Harvey immediately calmed down, pondered for a moment, and said slowly: "It doesn't sound difficult! I just want to know, you circle this one No man's land, it's not really just to protect the safety of the oil field, is it?"

Zhu Mingyan said with a grin, "Otherwise, what else does Mr. President think we will do?"

Harvey shook his head and said, "I don't know, but I know it must not be that simple! I want the ambassador to assure me that these fifty square kilometers of forbidden land will not bring disaster to my country and people!"

Zhu Mingyan immediately said: "Please rest assured, Mr. President, if something really happens, I, Zhu Mingyan, will bear it all!"

Harvey nodded and said, "If that's the case, then I can rest assured! However, the two things you mentioned are not up to me alone, and I need to get them to the Congress for a vote!"

Zhu Mingyan said with a smile: "Of course, this is a necessary procedure, but it's just a procedure, right, Mr. President?"

Harvey naturally understood the meaning of Zhu Ming's words, sighed, and nodded.Said: "But you know, I need time to go through these procedures! But the people of Iraq are running out of time, and I hope..."

Zhu Mingyan was very considerate, and said straightforwardly: "I understand this! Just rest assured, Mr. President. I believe that Mr. President is a trustworthy leader. I will immediately inform the head of the Skystab and let them The grain on the three ships will be handed over to Mr. George as quickly as possible, and as soon as Mehadi steps down here, all the grain stores will reopen immediately!"

Harvey nodded gratefully and said: "In this case, thank you, Mr. Ambassador. However, I still have a heartfelt request, and I hope Mr. Ambassador can agree to me!"

Zhu Mingyan looked at Harvey leisurely, and murmured, "Mr. President, does he want to assassinate the leader?"

Harvey smiled and said: "You also know that today's Iraqi country can barely be regarded as a three-legged rivalry.

M country, the sky thorn, is the second of them.Our Democracy Hall barely counts as the third leg.

I have really admired the Sky Spike for a long time, and I have long wanted to meet the head of the Sky Spike. If Mr. Ambassador is convenient, I would like to invite Yucheng to make this little wish of mine! "

When Zhu Mingyan was hesitating, accompanied by a crisp laugh, Li Xiaogang and Lightning walked out together.

Zhu Mingyan's eyes lit up, and he pointed at Li Xiaogang and said to Harvey: "Mr. President, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Li Xiaogang, the leader of Tiancai, and this Mr. Lightning is the leader of Tiancai in Iraq. commander in chief!"

Harvey's eyes suddenly lit up, as if they were absorbed in Li Xiaogang and Lightning, and they couldn't move no matter what.

The two stood side by side. Although Li Xiaogang was handsome and handsome, Lightning was equally mighty and extraordinary.

At first glance, Havid seemed to have been punched in the heart, and his heart couldn't help beating wildly, deeply impressed by the demeanor of the two.
