Tang Li went back and told Nan Qi and Jiahua's bosses about the situation, and the two of them suddenly fell from the edge of excitement.

In the small hotel box, the atmosphere is a little dull. Tang Li didn't like it, so he went to open the window, and a warm wind blew in, which made the three of them feel better.

Nanqi's boss Gan Xinxin is the oldest of the three, and he can't take risks, so he lowered his fleshy head and said: "Dahua Industrial can talk to the Petroleum Corporation, and Su Cheng is still an independent director of the Petroleum Corporation. ”

"You're just running for nothing?" Wu Qiang, the boss of Jiahua, was reluctant. This is a porter-born character, starting from a gas delivery worker, to wholesale liquefied gas by himself, to contracting gas stations, setting up a company, and finding the liquefied gas in the plan, step by step to earn an astronomical amount of money that others dare not imagine.

Gan Xinxin knew what Wu Qiang meant, and said with a smile: "I'm here, I'm not familiar with life, what can I do? Mr. Tang, what is Huang Neng's idea?"

Tang Li thought about it for a long time in the car, hesitated for a moment at this time, and said: "Su Cheng is stuck in the channel of natural gas, this trick is too powerful, even if we build a pipe, no one will supply us with gas, and we really can't get up." ”

Wu Qiang sneered and said, "Mr. Tang, just such a small matter, you also retreated? Let's do this business, when will it be easy? Just say that the gas supply station, the big section chief is holding us, but are we afraid? I smashed him with money and called me dad when he saw me." Without Sioux City, Shandong*Dong would be out of gas? Without Butcher Zhang, you would have to eat pigs with hair? I see, you have sold the company early, and you should go home to nurse your children. ”

Tang Li frowned and said, "Don't provoke me." A casual investment in gas pipelines is millions of dollars, and now it is difficult to find loans, and if there is no gas source, I would rather not do it. ”

"What if I had a gas source?"

"Do you have a gas source? Do you have a gas source to use here and Sioux City?

Wu Qiang smiled proudly and said, "The qi source really has to fall in the east of the mountain." ”

"Shengli Oilfield?" Gan Xinxin immediately called out: "Mr. Wu is well hidden, do you still have a relationship in the oilfield?"

"There is a brother who is very righteous, and I helped him a lot when I was in Hebei. I got in touch two days ago, and I'm still a sincere person. Wu Qiang laughed, quite the glory of being connected in the world.

Tang Li is a businessman who runs the world, and his vision is very accurate. I thought: People like Wu Qiang, what kind of righteous brothers can be, it is estimated that they are still smashed with money.

Thinking of what Su Cheng said, he reminded: "Su Cheng came out of the Shengli Oilfield, and the current Shengli Machinery Factory was called Dahua Industry for a while, and then somehow it was returned to the Shengli Oilfield." It's too difficult for you to use the gas source of the Shengli oil field to fight him. Again, there is a lot of natural gas in the Shengli Oilfield, but it is also used a lot, and it is all signed with a long contract, and it is no problem for you to get tens of thousands of cubic meters, but it is not easy to get a few million cubic meters. ”

Wu Qiang pursed his lips and did not argue, but said, "Who said that I was going to get natural gas." ”

"So what do you do?"

"Just do our old job, liquefied gas. "Liquefied gas is liquefied petroleum gas, which is the tail gas in the oil refining process. In the late 80s and throughout the 90s, the most commonly used natural gas tanks in Chinese households were liquefied petroleum gas. In general, the industrial nature of liquefied gas is not as good as that of natural gas, and the difference between domestic gas is not far away, especially when the price is advantageous, the competition between the two will become very fierce.

In the case that natural gas is not valued by upstream oil companies, liquefied gas has had a glorious period, with annual sales of more than 10 million tons. Because it is the tail gas in the process of petroleum smelting, therefore, whether people need liquefied gas or not, as long as there is a demand for petroleum products, liquefied gas will be discharged continuously, for state-owned enterprises in the early 90s, this is still a very troublesome thing, in some cases, even to burn in vain, resulting in waste, the price will naturally not go up.

Shengli Oilfield is a large crude oil production enterprise, and also has its own petrochemical enterprises, so the liquefied gas produced is cheap and abundant, which is indeed a better choice than natural gas.

Tang Li understood Wu Qiang's train of thought, nodded slightly, and said, "It is indeed better to use liquefied gas than natural gas, are you going to make a pipeline or a gas station?"

"Do the plumbing. I asked, the liquefied gas pipeline does not need to be depressurized, and the cost is cheaper than that of natural gas. How about it, are the two brothers coming?" Wu Qiang looked excited. The scale of his company is not as large as Tang Li's Huang Neng International, and he does not have Tang Li's background, so the negotiations are all handed over to Tang Li to do.

Tang Li lowered his head and groaned, and said hesitantly: "When we make natural gas pipelines, we want to compete with Dahua Industry." In this way, it is better to agree to the conditions of Dahua Industry and be a distributor for them, thinking that he can't pit us. ”

"That's my opinion. Tang Li waited for him to finish and said immediately.

Wu Qiang woke up from exhaling and raising his eyebrows, and said angrily: "What are you afraid of?"

"On the east side of the mountain, Sioux City is the head of the earth. Shengli Oilfield is his maiden home, and the relationship must be very deep. Let's use the gas of Shengli Oilfield to fight him in the ring, and think about it again. Tang Li actually refused. They were in a hurry, and there was no way to know the inside information, but with experience alone, he could also perceive the risks.

Not only that, for Tang Li and Gan Xinxin, there is not much difference between whether the qi source is Wuqiang or Su Cheng, they are both distributors. In this case, instead of fighting in the ring, it is better to make money in harmony.

Wu Qiang's mind slowed down, he just thought about how much money the liquefied gas in the plan could make him, he didn't care about Su Cheng's threat at all, and said disdainfully: "My brother is in charge, even if he has any previous relationships, he should go to tea and cool down." Let me tell you, don't look at the burning resistance of natural gas, liquefied gas is what everyone is used to, and when we connect the pipeline, we will definitely make a lot of money, and there is nothing to fight in the ring. ”

The two of them would not be tricked by him to be a downstream merchant of an inexplicable brotherhood, and after refusing politely again, they left the hotel one after another.

A few days later, Tang Li and Gan Xinxin approached Sioux City, agreed to his terms, and began to lay networks in Rizhao and Tai*'an, respectively. Rizhao City is very close to Qing* Island, and Tai*'an is also close to Jinan, in addition to the benefit of no pipeline, it is a good choice in itself.

Sioux City can't do it all over the province, so it must give in to the profits. The profitability of the natural gas pipeline in 1990 was not as good as that after 2000, and the people of the time never thought of going public on the stock market, so except for the gas pipeline between the two sub-provincial cities that was booked by Dahua Gas Company, it did not matter that other branch lines were handed over to companies such as Huang Neng International. When there is money in the future, the construction of large-caliber natural gas transmission pipelines will not be affected.

The only thing that has caused controversy is the standard. The construction of natural gas pipelines is not easy, the cost is quite high, and many are buried deep underground, so the cost of renovating after completion is very high, in order to avoid the bottleneck of natural gas pipelines in a certain place, unified standards are very necessary. In later generations, the West-East Gas Pipeline was built by PetroChina, and it was naturally convenient to set its own standards and abide by them. Sioux City does not have such financial resources, but he also wants the pipelines of Huang Neng International and Southern Gas to cooperate with his natural gas supply, otherwise the extra costs of operation will have to be borne by himself.

Huang Neng International and Nan Gas are naturally reluctant to build high-standard natural gas pipelines, they are businessmen who went to sea in the early days of reform and opening up, and it took 10 years to accumulate a fortune. Before seeing profits, this kind of investment is naturally as little as possible, and it is naturally in their interests to choose cheap pipes, as for how many years it can be used, it will be considered after a few years when there is money.

Argument to argument, Sioux City insisted, they had no choice but to comply, and the agreement was generally signed smoothly.

However, Wu Qiang, the boss of the separated Jiahua company, will not consider the issue of standard and location. He found "Liu Gongzi" of Shengli Oilfield to settle the matter of liquefied gas supply, initialed a contract, and went straight to Weifang, which is closer to Dongying and not far from Qing* Island, which is the location of both the present and the future.

Wu Qiang has already made up his mind, and as soon as he makes money, he will march from Wei*fang to Qingdao, and when the time comes, even if he only occupies one district, the profit will not be less. Those of them who have done a lot of gas, although they can't say that pipelines are king, they also have a vague understanding.

Unless the company goes out of business or is acquired, it is much easier to make a profit by occupying a household, than an ordinary business.

Although he failed to pull Huang Neng International and Nangas, Wu Qiang didn't care, there were more people in the country who wanted to make gas pipelines, as long as he started it, naturally someone would come to join with money. He himself made a few phone calls, preparing to move the headquarters of Jiahua Company after gaining a foothold.

Although household liquefied gas tanks are profitable, there are too many levels of distribution, and Jiahua is crowded in the middle, which is really difficult to do, so it is better to give up early.

Wu Qiang thought about it, so he slept comfortably in the hotel in Weifang, and the next day, under the recommendation of Liu Gongzi, he visited the city officials.

Liu Gongzi is the son of the leader of the Shengli Oilfield Management Bureau, and he eats very well in the province, drives a pure white logo car, and is dressed as a Hong Kong-style star, looking like a beautiful son.

Wu Qiang is still in the style of the airman era, khaki pants, gray jacket. When others asked him, they praised him for being a man of truth and being at ease. When he begged for someone, he was a little uncomfortable, sat in the Peugeot and asked, "Liu Gongzi, where should we visit first?"

"Where is the need to visit one by one. I found the secretary of the city government, and he himself wanted to follow the leaders to the countryside, but I couldn't come, but I shouted Lao Zhou of the Construction Bureau, the leaders of the public case and the fire department, the people from the Electric Power Bureau and the construction company. Once agreed, we will start work tomorrow. Liu Gongzi spoke while driving, and his tone was amazing.

When Wu Qiang heard this, he was happy, and gave a thumbs up and praised: "He is worthy of being the son of Liu Shuji." You can rest assured, as long as the joints are opened, you will be waiting to collect the money this time next year. ”

Liu Gongzi smiled reservedly and said: "The money for liquefied gas needs to be settled in cash, don't forget this." Otherwise, it's hard to talk about Daddy. ”

"You can rest assured, you can rest assured, and you will never let you and Liu Shuji worry about it. "Wu Qiang's Liu Shu Ji is Liu Gongzi's father, Liu Shu of Shengli Oilfield Administration, this person was in many obstacles when he was exploring the Chengdao Oilfield in Sucheng, and then he wanted to sell the technology of the Chengdao Oilfield to the Ito Trading Company in Japan, but was blocked by Sucheng. However, Liu Shuji himself is a cadre at the department level, with deep roots, and several errors in judgment have not affected his prestige, and he still has a lot of power in the Shengli Oilfield.
