"General, this is taking into account the risk of oil coming out of the Persian Gulf, as well as the cost of transportation to our country. In addition, you have to consider how much crude oil your country can give each day. "If you can, as long as you transport out of the Gulf of Oman, even into Pakistani waters, we can agree to your price." ”

"Dream!" Ibrahim jumped.

If the Persians had known that it was the Iraqis themselves transporting the oil, they would have sunk their tankers.

"It's not a dream, it's what it is. General, unless you can change the President's decision to stop the Persian ship war. Xie Kai said, "If you can't transport it, no matter how much oil you have, you can't transport it, and if you can transport it, I don't know how high the risk is." ”

The Iraqis and the Persians attacked whoever they caught.

The Persian Gulf is now on the verge of collapse for the global economy.

Europe and the United States, because they were worried that the Soviet Union would be dead and would use the global war to solve their serious domestic economic problems, have not sent their escort fleets until now.

Even if North and South Yemen have already done it.

"We can supply 1 million barrels of crude oil a day!" Ibrahim said, "Xie Kai, your price is too low and there is no sincerity." We're also very tight on money right now, you know. ”

"$11. "Xie Kai's reserve price is not immutable.

There's a full $2 difference.

If he hadn't felt that asking for $8 a barrel was too much, he would have been embarrassed to give this price at the beginning.

Let's talk about it slowly anyway.

He really didn't have time to grind the price with the Iraqis, everyone was busy.

"Minimum 16. "Ibrahim also has a floor price.

If you can ask for an extra dollar, that's tens of millions of dollars.

"General, the price is too high. Factor in the risks, and then put aside the cost of transportation, and there is not much profit. Xie Kai reminded Ibrahim again, "What's more, these oils should not be included in OPEC's quota, right?"

Not in the quota unless a buyer can be found.

Iraqis also do not dare to openly transport oil abroad, exceeding the quota too much will depress international oil prices, not to mention that their oil is currently exported from Turkey through oil pipelines.

Ibrahim was a little embarrassed.

Indeed, as Xie Kai said, these oils are not included in the quota, and if you want to increase production, you have to agree to OPEC.

Iraq now owes a large amount of debt to the major oil-producing countries in the Middle East, which has been exchanged for oil export quotas.

Anyway, they were fighting with the Persians in peacetime, especially the Baiezur oil field, the largest oil-producing area next to the southern town of Basra, which was constantly bombed and could not be produced, which made it impossible for them to use the quota......

"$15, it couldn't be any lower. Ibrahim didn't explain anything, and lowered the price by another $1.

"$12. General, if you feel that the price is acceptable, sign the contract. 1 million barrels per day. After paying the money for the completion of the advance payment, if you still feel that you can cooperate, we can talk about it again. "Xie Kai doesn't want to sign too many contracts.

Ibrahim simply did not agree with the price.

It's too low.

He talked about the international market price again, but was despised by Xie Kai.

If it can really be sold at a price in the international market, the Iraqis will not talk to Xie Kai like this.

"General, this oil, we can't sell it at the national price. In order to sell it as soon as possible, it must be lower than the market price, otherwise, tens of millions of barrels of crude oil flowing into the international market will also cause a considerable impact. Xie Kai knew that the Iraqis were already very tight on money, and it was impossible to offer too high a price.

He believes that the reserve price of the Iraqis is not so high.

Silly Damu maintains good relations with many countries, and the key is that oil cannot be transported from the Persian Gulf now.

"You have a good relationship with Persia, and there are deals, so they won't attack Chinese merchant ships. Ibrahim was not satisfied with Xie Kai's price being so low.

"We don't have a super-large ocean-going merchant ship entering the Persian Gulf at all!" Xie Kai didn't feel a good feeling.

The Iran-Iraq war entered the stage of ship raids, and not a single Chinese ship was sunk, not because of good relations with Persia and Iraq, but because China did not have a few large ocean-going freighters.

Only the bombed "Sea Giant" barely has something to do with China, because Hong Kong is Chinese territory, and the key is that it has not been taken back at this time.

Even if China has large ocean-going freighters entering the Persian Gulf, the Chinese Navy is not capable of escorting ships without an ocean-going fleet at present.

Therefore, China has always called for a peaceful solution for both warring parties.

"General, whether it is you or the Persians, you are rushing big cargo ships and oil tankers to fry, and the international oil price has risen to such an extent, and you have contributed to it. And at present, large oil tankers in the world enter the Persian Gulf, whether it is to transport your goods or crude oil, or to transport Persians, they will face serious dangers......"

Everyone on earth knows everything about the Persian Gulf.

The Persians not only bombed Iraqi merchant ships, but also the merchant ships that helped the Iraqis transport, such as Kuwait and other countries, which were on the Persian attack list.

The same is true for Iraqis.

Historically, even after the Americans began to escort the ship, the Iraqi Mirage F1 launched two Exocet anti-ship missiles, which seriously damaged the American Stark missile frigate and killed 37 people.

What the specific situation is, the parties know better than anyone else.

Just to keep the price of oil!

Even American warships dare to bomb them.

Xie Kai is not afraid that the Iraqis will dare to bomb their tanker now, and he is also not worried that the Persians will dare to bomb it, and when the time comes, whoever blows it up will be compensated.

An agreement has to be reached now.

"So, $12, that's a lot of money. Otherwise, you pay cash!" Xie Kai bit $12 and didn't let go.

Ibrahim even lowered the price to $14, to which Xie Kai disagreed.

"Xie Kai, otherwise, we will each take a step back, 13 US dollars, and sign the contract according to this, no matter where it is transported, the transportation cost of 2~3 US dollars a barrel is already very high. Ibrahim said.

That's $1 less than their floor price.

He knew Xie Kai's character, but he was afraid that it would affect the arms transaction between the two sides, so he did not negotiate the price as a few cents and cents in the world.

Xie Kai watched Ibrahim for a long time, and knew that this was the bottom line for the Iraqis, and they had to find buyers and transportation companies, all of which had to be done in the shortest possible time, and the longer the time, the less profit would be.

The Americans have not yet started escorting oil because of an accident, and even if they do, they will not be able to bring oil prices back in the short term because of the hostile relationship between the Persians and the United States.

In the global stock market crash, oil prices are unlikely to remain high.

"Okay!" Xie Kai didn't bother to say, "But General, I guess you need to talk to Director Zheng and them." ”

Xie Kai must get out as soon as possible.

Ibrahim also knew that Xie Kai would not sign a contract with them, and it would work to talk to him anyway.

"Mozi, you ask Brother Tan if he knows a company that owns large ocean-going oil tankers. Xie Kai didn't report this to Zheng Yucheng and them yet, so he asked Mo Qi to contact Tan Lin.

Tan Lin was originally engaged in import and export trade, and now he has set up an ocean shipping company in order to transport domestically produced equipment to Tanzania and then transport concentrate back from Tanzania.

"He doesn't have an oil tanker in his hands. Mozi also gradually grasped the resources available to Xie Kai.

Tan Lin used to be engaged in smuggling, but now he has an ocean shipping company, which is just to transport African resources.

"He doesn't have tankers, there's a relationship. Xie Kai didn't explain, "You contact him, his path in Singapore is also relatively wild, it's best to let him go with us." ”

On the Singapore side, Xie Kai really doesn't have much of a way.

The relationship between the government and that side is not very good, even Singapore is a Chinese country, and those people are mixed with European and American countries.

"$1.3 billion? Even if you give $3 a barrel of freight, you can have twice the profit!" Zheng Yucheng's saliva flowed, "We can make an extra billion dollars in profits!"

The old fellow's heart was so excited that it almost stopped.

"Thinking too much. Although it is this price, aside from various costs, there can be a profit of $20 per barrel, which can be regarded as burning high incense. Xie Kai looked at Zheng Yucheng and couldn't laugh or cry, "It is impossible to trade with international oil prices." We have to transport this batch of crude oil in the shortest possible time, and even sell it. ”

"The international price is there!"

"These are not OPEC planned outputs. Whether it is Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, or even the Soviet Union, all major oil-producing countries are desperately trying to increase oil production. Xie Kai explained, "If it weren't for the outbreak of the Iran-Iraq war, the oil production of Iraq and Iran, the two major oil-producing countries, would have plummeted, and international oil prices would not have been so high." ”

Investing in oil fields and increasing production is not something that can be seen today and tomorrow.

The construction period of the oil field is not short.

There is only one opportunity, and it depends on whether it can be grasped.

"At what price do you plan to sell this batch of oil?" Wang Guilin asked Xie Kai.

"$35~36. Xie Kai said, "A total of 36.6 million barrels, a million barrels a day, it will take more than a month." What's more, in the early stage, it is impossible for us to ship millions of barrels of crude oil in a day. ”

Xie Kai was in a hurry.

"It's not easy for us to carry 500,000 barrels a day. There are not many large tankers in the country. "Wang Guilin is most worried about this.

"This kind of thing can't be done with our domestic oil tankers at all. "What we need to do is to safely transport the oil from the ports in Iraq, cross the Gulf of Oman, and the money will be in hand." ”

"It's so easy?" Zheng Yucheng didn't believe it, "If it's really that easy, why do we make twice the profit?"
