Age of Dreams
Vol 2 Chapter 3003: The Tsar (Part 2)
It's just that Xiao Qi is not for personal gain. When dealing with Russia, he is more like a national comprador.
The benefits and benefits given by Russia basically fell into the hands of the country of China, and Xiao Qi himself received very little.
Even those oil Xiaoqis are not needed at all.
The czar has been wondering how to make Xiao Qi.
If you want others to help, you must give benefits.
Even if Xiao Qi is only helping Russia for the benefit of China, if more personal friendships can be established, then there will be more cooperation in many things in the future.
Because of this, the Czar used the excuse of being a "Russian friend" to send Xiao Qi a lot of Chinese cultural relics stolen by Russia.
Now when I meet with Xiao Qi directly, the Czar first throws out the problem and sees that Xiao Qi is willing to talk about it. This is a victory.
As for the price to be paid in the future, the czar didn't care.
Russia has nothing, but all kinds of resources are not lacking at all. Let’s take diamonds. The diamond mine exposed in the past two years is enough to be mined for 100 years. It doesn’t matter if you send thousands or tens of thousands of carats to Xiao Qi, anyway. There are so many things.
And China needs oil and natural gas. It’s even simpler. Russia is worried about not being able to sell more. Russia’s resources are too rich anyway. They can’t be sold in 300 years. Now many people in China are very poor. , It is better to exchange oil and natural gas for more living supplies.
Hearing Xiao Qi talking about this, the Czar proactively offered more bargaining chips: "Russia is very sincere in cooperating with China. It is expected that within two years at most, the first pipeline will officially start to lose. When it comes to gas and oil, many people dare not say that there is a 30 billion annual transmission quota. After five years, the three lines are completed together, and we are expected to reach the annual transaction volume of 100 billion US dollars."
Regardless of the fact that China has bought tens of billions of dollars and tens of billions of dollars of oil these few times, if we really use it, we can eat more.
The daily needs of 1.5 billion people, as well as the needs of industry, will consume a lot of oil and natural gas.
As mentioned earlier, China’s current strategic oil reserves are only a month or so. If you want to have more leeway in the future, at least you have to have 90 days of inventory.
Even if Hua Guo holds a 180-day inventory for half a year, it will not be too much at all.
At that time, it can be the same as the United States. Once the oil price is too outrageous, China can immediately release its inventory and directly invest tens of billions or hundreds of billions of dollars in oil to stabilize oil prices.
Not to mention natural gas. In the previous life in 2013, China's annual natural gas consumption exceeded 150 billion cubic meters. This life is similar. In 2010, it is estimated that more than 120 billion cubic meters will be used.
According to some estimates, the consumption of natural gas in the power, industry, and transportation sectors will further increase. By 2020, the annual gas consumption will reach 300 billion cubic meters.
Everyone knows that natural gas is a derivative of oil. Since China is short of oil, it must be short of natural gas.
Natural gas is much more widely used than oil.
In Chinese cities, every household basically uses natural gas, even if it is not pipeline natural gas, it is also canned liquefied gas.
Even in areas that are not so remote, the original old stove method is gradually being phased out, and canned liquefied gas or even pipeline natural gas is used.
Think about it. Almost 1 billion people use natural gas for eating, bathing, etc. How much is this consumption?
Then there are almost all public transportation vehicle resources in China, such as buses, taxis, etc., which use gas, and there are millions of modified vehicles that use gas, which is also a huge consumption.
From this point of view, the natural gas resource storage in China, even if it is stored for an additional year and a half, to a storage capacity of 500 days, there is no need to worry that the consumables related to the people’s life will not be used, then It must be profitable!
Russia’s natural gas resources supply almost half of Europe, and there is still a large amount of surplus. Therefore, transporting them to China can solve the problem of overproduction and increase revenue. It can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
Chinese people have a very good reputation in terms of payment, and they are not as rascal as those in Ukraine.
Xiao Qi also understands that if you want to obtain the most stable oil and natural gas resources, then Russia is the most reliable source.
After all, the two countries are directly adjacent to each other, so there is no need to worry about Europe and the United States setting up a checkpoint in the middle, and you will directly pinch what happens.
And Russia is not rich, which ensures that they need a stable super market.
No matter from which aspect, China is their best export trading partner.
If you want to have a stronger relationship with Russia, it seems that you need to come up with more things.
"Russia's currency system is not sound." Xiao Qi muttered, "because oil and natural gas exports are the main driving force of Russia's economy. Once this problem is not resolved, it is difficult to say how much the Russian economy can withstand. And the currency is It is closely dependent on economic development, so in fact the Russian ruble is also very fragile.
According to my opinion, Russia should develop its own processing trade as much as possible, not the simple export of energy, food, resources and so on. Only if Russia's industry has also developed, such as being able to deepen processing of petroleum and other products and obtain sufficient profit margins, can it be possible to withstand the suppression. "
"industry?"
The Tsar gave a wry smile, "Russia has a population of only 200 million, and 300 million are women. Such a population of 200 million is spread across a vast territory and is not diligent enough on weekdays. How can we develop industry?"
"There are many types of industries." Xiao Qi smiled and said, "For example, Russia's military industry is very powerful. You can use this to do something."
"Where?" the czar asked very cleverly and concisely.
Xiao Qi stood up, walked in front of the czar, poured a little from a glass of water, drew a rough outline, and then clicked on a position.
Then he left.
The czar used to be an agent, and his memory is very powerful. Although Xiao Qi drew a simple map just now, he clearly saw that Xiao Qi painted the Mediterranean area.
And if you read it right, Xiao Qi's last point was the central area of Qiong Island in the earth.
And the name of the country in that place, the czar already knew
The czar turned and smiled, "Is it possible for a spark to start a prairie fire there?"
"There is no doubt." Xiao Qi said, "The one who has ruled for 40 years, but has not made much achievements, just values his own enjoyment, but ignores the construction of the country and the gathering of people's hearts. If there is not too strong help, war will start. After at most six months, he will be wiped out."
"So, what can we do?" the czar asked, turning his head.
"I don't know, if you want to intervene anyway, hurry up. At the beginning of next year at the latest, others will intervene." Xiao Qi said, "Although that person has nothing to do, and his mind is corroded by Wenrouxiang, just let him give up in advance. Fancy, the large amount of dollars in his hand can still be used as waste."
"Is there no way to save it?" the czar thought.
"It's difficult, unless you go directly to the battle." Xiao Qi said, "So the best way is to take advantage of the present time, communicate more directly with that person, let him know the seriousness, and then buy a lot of Russian equipment. Actively prepare for war. The longer the war is fought, the more natural money will be."
He hesitated for a while, Xiao Qi said, "Even Russia can use a tougher attitude at the beginning, so in order to appease you, they will definitely have to give up some of the benefits. There are abundant oil resources there! At that time, whether it is for their own use, If you sell it to others, Russia will advance and retreat with a degree."
"Papa Papa"
The czar did not answer, but slapped his palms, the light in his eyes flickering visible.
"Your Excellency, we think that the things Xiao Qi said are very likely to happen, but we don't know why he is so anchored, and the whole country will not be able to support it for half a year." A staff member stood by the czar and said respectfully. , "Although their army is weak, the opposition is weaker. No matter how tyrannical Europe and America are, they dare not openly send troops, right?"
"His army is all paper tigers." The czar said with disdain, "have been upholding him for half a year. If he really sends ground troops over, he will be finished in at most 3 months."
"We calculated that if we try our best to build a good relationship with him, and he already knows that things are not right, he should purchase our equipment. He would expect to get our support by purchasing equipment." Another staff member said in a deep voice. Said, "It is estimated that at least 5 billion US dollars of equipment can be sold. If we fight for a long time, 20 billion can be achieved, and our profit is very high."
"But I don't know why Xiao Qi would take the initiative to talk to us about this. This will not benefit China at all." Another staff member said in confusion.
"Why is it no good?" The Tsar said lightly, "Russia and Europe and the United States are facing each other there, and the center of gravity of Europe and the United States has to be shifted to Russia. Naturally, the pressure on China will be much reduced, and even Europe and the United States will show favor with China , Give some benefits to prevent them from turning to us more!"
"It turned out to be like this!" The staff suddenly realized, "Then if we do what he says, we will be fooled!"
"No, we must do this!"
The czar's answer ~www.readwn.com~ surprised everyone.
He looked around and noticed that everyone looked like they didn't understand, and he sighed.
The Russians are not bad at war, but in terms of their wrists and minds, they are not good. They are far worse than Xiao Qi!
"The first point is that we in Russia can obtain a large number of weapons orders, consume a large amount of inventory, create more industrial output value, and earn more US dollars. This alone is not something we can refuse." The Tsar said, "Then more importantly, if Russia has an interest there, we will firmly nail a nail in the Mediterranean, directly facing the French hinterland. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Even if we can't stand there, they will also give us some compensation in order to get us out. To dig out some benefits from the hands of European and American countries is very good for the national confidence of our entire country. This proves that we are also capable of fighting against Europe and the United States and making our own voice! "
Having said that, the Tsar sighed again, "This is what the Easterners say is the upright plan! Even if you see through it, you have to act according to their will, Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi, you deserve to be a really smart person. Now!!" (To be continued.)
