Chapter 661: Ineffective Sanctions (2)

Yao Yi said: "You are in trade, can't you see this, let me ask you, what is the restriction of the United States on our trading companies!"

James said: "It's foreign trade!"

Yao Yi asked again: "How much does our trading company occupy in the entire foreign trade system of the United States?"

James thought for a moment and said, "It's about one percent, but in fact, we don't have a lot of influence on the United States!"

Yao Yi said: "You are wrong about this, because the bulk trade of the Americans is minerals and energy and other items, and a large part of it is the oil of the Middle East, the minerals of Canada and Australia, of course, the Australian mineral side is basically controlled by us, but Canada's mineral trade is not carried out by us, if our trade fleet suddenly stops trading, the mineral resources of the United States will be tense, if I further control the mineral resources of Canada, do you say the United States can sit still!"

James said: "But now there is no other country except the United States that can afford to eat so many minerals!"

"Actually, you don't know that under the current situation, Canada's minerals will soon not be able to export to the United States, because Canada has made the largest investment in history, especially real estate investment, and the demand for steel and cement is almost crazy, and its demand will soon surpass that of the United States. A large amount of investment and construction is also being carried out in private territories, and the largest commodity in our trade fleet is cement, and a large amount of cement has been purchased from the United States to meet the needs of Canada, but now that the Americans have sanctioned it, it means that they have lost customers for a large amount of cement all of a sudden, you say, can the Americans not be in a hurry!"

James said: "The Americans may be anxious, but we are even more anxious, because it is not only the United States that launched sanctions, but also Japan that we have offended, in this case, our cement source will also be broken, such a big gap in cement supply, where do we 'get', this American is probably already calculated, as long as we control our cement source, the construction of our 'private' territory will have to stop, in this case, we will be more anxious than him!"

Yao Yi said: "Hehe, maybe the Americans have such a wishful thinking, but what he didn't calculate is that we already have a large cement plant in Maling, with an annual cement output of 10 million tons, in addition, Canada's cement production is also growing rapidly, it won't take long for Canada's cement output alone to meet Canada's own construction needs, and a lot of cement is still high-grade cement, so, in terms of cement, the Americans may have made a mistake in their wishful thinking!"

James said: "Even so, the current Canadian government has ordered to join the United States in sanctioning us, and nominally, some Canadian items cannot be exported to other countries!"

Yao Yi said: "The decree of the Canadian government is limited to a palm-sized area of his capital, as for the rest, hehe, I can export as much as I want, he wants to restrict me,' Besides, the Soviet Union is the country with the largest cement output in the world, but what he lacks is food, however, we Canada has a lot of grain, and this year is another bumper harvest year, exchanging grain for cement and steel is a good choice, in fact, we should have sanctions from the Americans, it is precisely because of his sanctions that the price of grain has risen sharply, more than twice as much, we can export a large amount of grain to the Soviet Union, without scruples about any forces!"

James said: "Is this possible, we were not in the habit of exporting grain to the Soviet Union before!"

Yao Yi said with a smile: "You don't have it, but I do, and I have been exporting grain to the Soviet Union, and in exchange for a large amount of high-grade cement, these cements are stored in the warehouse of the horse collar, even if we can't buy a bag of cement now, it can fully support our current construction speed for a month, so you don't have to worry at all, in the future, we will build this Sarawak city in the horse collar into the world's largest cargo." The trading and warehousing center is where you can trade with any country, and the location is just in the waterway, and the geographical location is extremely superior!"

James said, "I don't know anything about it!"

Yao Yi said: " This is normal, you just do what I ask, you will definitely not let you suffer, from now on, you will sell a large number of items to the United States, store them in Sarawak City, and the rest, there will be other trading companies to help you digest these goods, as for the goods that the United States does not allow exports, you don't have to worry, just pick up the goods directly at the storage center in Sarawak City, where there will be everything, in addition, let a large number of fleets move to Canada, from Canada to Sarawak to transport grain to Sarawak, in a few months, Sarawak International Warehousing and Trade Center will go to the world stage, and the economic sanctions of the Americans will be a piece of waste paper in the future！”

James looked at Yao Yi dumbfounded, and asked puzzledly, "Duke Yao, when did you make this decision!"

Yao Yi said with a smile: "When, when I acquired Sarawak, I have made this decision, otherwise, how can I receive US sanctions indifferent, in the future, I will also establish similar international warehousing and trade centers in the other two places, when the time comes, our global business layout will be perfect, in the future, the United States will no longer dare to wave the big 'stick' of trade sanctions to us, but will be obedient to us, and even sometimes look at our faces' It's just that time is too tight now, and I don't have too much 'energy' to deal with these things!"

After James heard Yao Yi say this, he asked, "Where are these two places, I can lay them out first!"

Yao Yi said: "Now we are concentrating on doing a good job in Sarawak City, the rest is just planning, maybe the world will change, and my plan will be changed again, so you don't have to think about the rest, just follow what I said, just concentrate on developing our trade, and transfer our strength to our own 'private' territory!"

When James heard Yao Yi say this, he didn't refute it, after all, in this regard, practice has proved that Yao Yi wins every time, so James said: "I understand this, it is completely in accordance with your requirements, although I temporarily lose a little benefit, but I believe that in the near future, we will earn it back, and I can ask you something!"

Yao Yi said: "What's the matter!"

James said: "I heard that you have established your own 'private' territory in Qiongzhou, China, and I don't know how this Qiongzhou will develop in the future, and whether there is any plan. ”
