Chapter 550: The Storm of Foreign 'Relations' (11)

After half a ring, Kaspersky finally figured it out and said with a smile: "Do you want us to exchange Kaliningrad for these sunken ships!"

Yao Yi smiled and said: "Now that the three countries of the 'Polish' Sea have separated from your Soviet Union, especially the independence of Lithuania, it is more troublesome for you to manage Kaliningrad, besides, this land does not belong to you in the first place!"

Kaspersky smiled when he heard Yao Yi's words, he understood very well in his heart.

This Kaliningrad was formerly known as the "Königsberg Oblast", bordering the Baltic Sea in the west, Lithuania in the north and east, and Poland in the south, with an area of 15,100 square kilometers and a population of about 841,000, of which Russians account for more than seven-tenths, and the rest are Belarusians. Ukrainians, etc., the capital of Kaliningrad, most of it is plain, only the southwest border has hills, affected by the ocean, the climate is humid, the annual precipitation is 600-700 mm, the average temperature in January is -9 °C, 17 °C in July, the soil is mainly limestone, there are oil, lignite, peat, etc., it was originally part of East Prussia in Germany, and was included in the Russian Federation of the Soviet Union in 1945, and was established as a state in 1946, and the industry is based on fish processing, wood processing, machinery manufacturing (electric shovels, train cars, textile machinery, Agricultural machinery, etc.), the planting industry is underdeveloped, only flax cultivation is more, animal husbandry, poultry industry is important, and the main cities are 'Bo'rotiysk, Sovietsk, etc.

In addition, here is an important naval base of the Soviet Union, the headquarters of the Baltic Sea Fleet is located here, Kaliningrad is also a trading port and fishing port of the Soviet Union, there are famous shipyards and amber factories, and the production of amber here is well-known all over the world, the reserves account for 90% of the world's reserves, the amber factory has a history of more than half a century, the annual production of 400 tons of amber, the output value of 3 million US dollars, products exported to Japan, ' Poland and Germany are also at a disadvantage, with a lack of natural resources, 90 percent of the raw materials needed for factories are mainly transported by rail and automobiles from other countries, and 80 percent of the electricity comes from the Soviet Union and the Russian Federation.

Kaspersky said: "You should be well aware that the strategic location of Kaliningrad is important!"

Yao Yi said: "Of course I know, if it is not important, I can't look down on this land of projectiles!"

Kaspersky said: "If we talk about giving money, we may think about it, but if you want land, I'm afraid this matter will be more difficult, you know, you and the United States are allies, and we will never let the allies of the United States approach our land!"

When Kaspersky says this, it means that he and Yao Yi have entered the stage of bargaining.

Yao Yi also knows in his heart that the Soviet Union has a choice, and Yao Yi is still more accurate in this regard, this land was originally East Prussia, and after World War II, it was divided into the Soviet Union according to the agreement, so, to a certain extent, it is just a trophy, and now that it has been defeated, there is no huge psychological burden to take it out, besides, in exchange for this land, it is the highest military secret not to be revealed, so the Soviet Union will agree to his proposal.

For Yao Yi, this land is indeed a place with a very critical strategic location, if Sardinia is a key for Yao Yi to open the big 'door' of Europe, then Kaliningrad is a 'door' for Yao Yi to enter Europe, and directly to the south of the 'Poland' land, into Germany, to the north is the 'Bo' and Lotic Sea countries, as well as after the collapse of the Soviet Union Belarus, Russia, east is Ukraine and other countries.

It can be said that with this place, Yao Yi has a stronghold on the European continent, which can echo the north and south of Sardinia, and if he later takes the 18,000 square kilometers of land pledged in the loan agreement, Yao Yi can form a horn and help Europe, and when the time comes, Europe will be a piece of 'fat' and 'meat' in Yao Yi's mouth.

Yao Yi's layout is quite 'exquisite', and now Europe will definitely not stop Yao Yi, because the current Soviet Union is more terrible than Yao Yi, but after the collapse of the Soviet Union, things will change in another way.

Yao Yi heard Kaspersky's words, smiled and said: " What you said is right, I am an ally of the United States, but I am also a friend of your Soviet Union, not only lending you a loan of 200 billion dollars, but also having a peace agreement with your Soviet Union, even if it is not an ally, it is also a neutral, if you Soviet Union does not bully me, I will definitely not kill myself and go to your trouble, besides, you just mentioned money, if I want to sell these sunken ships, not to mention anything else, you should know in your heart how much a nuclear bomb sells, I think if you Soviet Union is asked to come up with a large amount of cash immediately, I am afraid it is unrealistic！”

Yao Yi's words hit the nail on the head of Mr. Kaspersky, the Soviet Union really can't come up with the money now, and the domestic crisis is getting worse, plus they are stuck in the quagmire of the war in Afghanistan, they really can't afford to pay a huge amount of money.

However, Kaspersky has another thing that he can take, and he thinks Yao Yi will definitely ask for materials.

Although Yao Yi's words hit him to the core, as a senior foreign 'friend', no matter how difficult it is in China, he will never say it, so he can only grit his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.

Kaspersky said: "Duke Yao, don't underestimate us too much, our Soviet Union is vast and rich, all kinds of resources are extremely rich, not to mention others, just as black gold oil is enough to pay your asking price!"

Yao Yi thought to himself: "If your Soviet Union does not disintegrate, I will definitely consider it seriously if you exchange resources, but your Soviet Union will soon disintegrate, and it is impossible for oil to be realized all at once, so this has no attraction to me, besides, when your Soviet Union collapses, most of the oil in your Soviet Union is mine, can I be in such a hurry!"

Yao Yi said with a smile: " Mr. Kaba, you are right, your resources are abundant, but for me, I am not short of resources, just with Rio Tinto Mining Co., Ltd. I can not use up the resources, how can I come all the way to you to ask for resources, I am not crazy, don't mention the matter of resources, if you think you can use Kaliningrad to exchange, you can change, if you can't, I can only tell you very regretfully, I will sell them to the Americans, they have asked me many times, after all, people are now ready to sell me ten aircraft carrier fleets, I should also have something in return！”

The reason why Yao Yi said about the aircraft carrier fleet is because this is not news, it has been reported in the newspapers for a long time, and I believe that Mr. Kaspersky is very aware of this matter.

Kaspersky thought for a moment and said, "That's it, you give me a little time, and I'll go back to discuss it, after all, this is our important naval base!"

Yao Yi secretly enjoyed in his heart, because his feelings had already told him the answer,
