Chapter 486: Allah's favorite
"Well said, I don't get used to these arrogant Brits~" Mark Tum applauded. The British colonized the Middle East for many years and did not know how much wealth they had squeezed out of the Arabs. When they withdrew from the Arabian Peninsula, they also sowed discord among the Arabs, so although the Arab royal families were quite friendly on the surface, they were secretly dissatisfied with the arrogant British.
Prince Abdullah also nodded, although this time Kuwait's recovery also has the merits of the British ** team, but the shame of nearly a hundred years, for them, it is also unforgettable, so Fang Mingyuan's dissatisfaction with the British, they also have the same heart.
"So, have you figured out who you're selling it to? Or ...... Hide it first?" said Prince Abdullah with a smile, "If you plan to store it, I can help you apply for an oil storage tank." However, the production of the Calafar field is not small, and the storage time should not be too long."
"What are you storing? Remember the number of barrels of oil in Fang's portion, and when he needs it, just give it to him in one lump sum. Prince Maktum said disapprerovingly.
"I'm afraid that when the time comes, when he needs it, he won't be able to allocate it for a while. And at this time, I don't think it hurts to stock up on some oil. Prince Abdullah explained. Nowadays, the demand for oil in Shijie countries is very strong, which is also largely because the United States wants to replenish the oil reserves used during the Gulf War, and the other reason is because the Gulf region is still unstable, and the major oil companies are worried about any more wars, so they also try to reserve as much crude oil as possible to avoid the impact of the sharp rise in oil prices after Iraq's invasion of Kuwait.
"Fang, if you can, I think if you don't want to sell to Fudy Petroleum Holdings, then don't sell to BP. Prince Maktum said in a deep voice.
Fang Mingyuan nodded knowingly, in fact, before Prince Abdullah and the others came back, Fang Mingyuan was already thinking about this issue. From the point of view of Prince Abdullah and his family, it is natural that they do not want the objects of oil exports to be limited to these large oil conglomerates, and in that case, they who purchase a huge amount of oil naturally have a say in the price of oil that cannot be ignored, which is not conducive to the Middle East countries to grasp the price of oil in the market. Like Fang Mingyuan in Huaxia in his previous life, buying iron and iron is expensive, buying oil and oil is expensive, and in the non-war period, when they all became the first buyers of a certain commodity, they could not grasp the pricing power, and could only passively accept the other party's blackmail, which was really unique.
So keeping the number of buyers of Middle Eastern oil at a certain level is not a bad thing for the countries of the Middle East. Of course, too many buyers come to buy oil, which is not a good thing. This grasp of proportion is extremely important.
"Do you want us to put you in touch with some Asian oil companies and promise to sell them to you at a good price?" said Prince Abdullah.
Fang Mingyuan shook his head and said, "Your Royal Highnesses the two princes, I have a question, in Kuwait, how much is a manor with a spring worth?"
"What's what?" cried Prince Abdullah and Prince Maktum in unison.
"Spring," Fang Mingyuan said with a smile.
"That's precious," said Prince Maktum, shaking his head, "and wherever there is a spring in their place, it has been classified as already owned by the royal family. Not to mention, how much those buildings are worth, just that spring, the value is difficult to estimate. We here, but water is more expensive than oil, the value of a spring is much higher than an oil well, and if you want to buy a manor with a spring, it is enough for you to buy three or five sets of manors of the corresponding area in tourist resorts in Europe and the United States. ”
"Fang, how did you think of buying a manor in Kuwait? As long as you ask, I can borrow you any manor in Kuwait other than the royal palace for you to stay in during your stay in Kuwait. "Prince Abdullah is also a little strange that as a foreigner, no one likes to live in Kuwait for a long time, if not necessary. This is especially true of the rich. For non-Muslims, life here can be a bit too boring.
"Prince Abdullah, do you have a mansion with an independent spring in Kuwait?" Fang Mingyuan did not answer Prince Abdullah's question, but asked rhetorically.
"There is only one of them, and the water output of the spring is only thirty or forty tons a day. Prince Maktum smiled.
"Don't always look at people with old eyes, the emir has promised me that in a few days, he will transfer a palace with a seventy-ton water spring to my name," Prince Abdullah said dissatisfied, "although it is not as good as you, but in Kuwait, this is already very good."
Seventy tons of spring water a day may not sound like much, but in Kuwait, where most of the area is covered by desert, there are no rivers or lakes on the surface, and a large number of residents need to purify their water, the value of this spring is difficult to estimate. Of course, the United Arab Emirates is also one of the few countries on Shijie that does not have rivers and lakes in its territory.
"Dear Fang, if you want to live in a manor with a spring, that's very easy, and we can move there tomorrow. Prince Abdullah turned his head and said, "I thought you would like the sea view, that's why I arranged it here, I knew you wanted to do this, and I wouldn't have to run this way." "The other party Mingyuan, this noble man who is destined for him, Prince Abdullah, is responsive
"No, no, no, I think you have misunderstood" Fang Mingyuan took the juice and took a sip of it, "I mean, I want to know, how much is it worth selling a manor with a spring in Kuwait to you?"
Prince Abdullah and Prince Maktum looked at each other, and for a moment, the two of them almost suspected that they had misheard. You must know that Kuwait has such a large area, and the Arabs have lived here for generations, and where there is a spring, it has long been bought, and now there is no ownerless spring in Kuwait. Where did Fang Mingyuan get a manor with a spring to sell to him? But both of them saw that Fang Mingyuan was definitely not joking with them
Fang Mingyuan laughed haha, after an afternoon of repeated thinking, he had decided on a plan, a plan to maximize benefits, and this plan required the cooperation of Prince Abdullah, of course, it would be better if he could pull Prince Maktum.
"Dear Fang, do you know a spring that has not yet been discovered? Supreme Allah, he simply loves you too much, you are simply the darling of Allah" Prince Abdullah immediately stood up, jumped in front of Fang Mingyuan, grabbed Fang Mingyuan's hand and said, "It won't be ......" He is not a fool, this is the first time Fang Mingyuan has come to Kuwait, he went out yesterday and went to Kausel Manor.
"It's Gausel Manor" Fang Mingyuan didn't hide it from him, and said straightforwardly.
Prince Abdullah calmed down and said in surprise: "The spring in the Kausel Manor has dried up, and now the water there is sent by the seawater purification plant. ”
"No, I'm pretty sure there's a spring in Cowsel Manor, but now you don't know where it is. Fang Mingyuan said with a smile, "I found it from ancient books by chance. ”
"Seventy percent sure?" Prince Abdullah and Prince Maktum exchanged glances, the value of a manor with a spring, and no one understood it better than their native-born Arabs. If the spring can reappear in the Cosel Manor, its value will be more than ten times greater.
"How much water can I get out?" asked Prince Maktum as well.
"No less than 100 tons per day" Fang Mingyuan said without hesitation, "The specific flow will need to be measured at that time." "In my previous life, it was said that the daily flow was 150 or 60 cubic meters, and even if there was a deviation, it could not be one-third of the amount. So Fang Mingyuan said it categorically.
Prince Abdullah and Prince Maktum were even more moved, a spring that produces 100 tons of water every day, for the Arabs, it is a godsend. Even now, the desalination plant can meet people's needs, but how can those purified seawater be compared with natural springs?
Moreover, the Kausser estate was originally owned by members of the Kuwaiti royal family, but it was originally transferred to Fudy Petroleum Holding Company for various reasons, and as the spring dried up, its value plummeted, and the Kuwaiti royal family has no intention of buying it back. If you can find this spring, then its significance is not trivial.
"Fang, then what do you mean......" Prince Abdullah suppressed the excitement in his heart, sat down beside Fang Mingyuan, and said in a slightly trembling voice.
"I have decided to sell the oil from the Calafar field to Fudy Petroleum Holdings, but on the condition that the Kautel estate be transferred to me and that I want to be able to take a partial stake in Fudy Petroleum Holdings. To achieve this goal, the oil in my hands is not enough, and you need your support, Prince Abdullah. And the reward you can get is that I will transfer the Kausel Manor to you at the original price, and help you find the spring" Fang Mingyuan said with a smile, "I don't know if Prince Abdullah thinks it's okay?"
