Chapter 592: The Dead Oil Merchants
Of course, there is revenge, since the wives have been wronged, how can Hailong give up on this matter, besides, the five wives have accompanied him through so many hardships, and he almost died several times in the war in Somalia, Hailong himself feels that he owes them a lot, and now he can make his wives happy, of course Hailong must do his best to do it.
After listening to the request of the five wives, Hailong stood up and said angrily: "Wives, you wait, watch your husband go to avenge you." The five women nodded happily together, although the grievances they suffered at the beginning were almost forgotten, but don't underestimate the woman's grudge.
Before leaving, Hailong said to Ivanka again: "Wife, my husband is going to take revenge, how about you being responsible for making money for your husband." ”
When she was fantasizing about the serious losses of the oil tycoon in the Gulf of Mexico being cleaned up by her husband, Ivanka heard Hilong's words, blinked her eyes, and asked, "Husband, how can I make money." ”
Hailong smiled evilly and said: "This time, we not only want to destroy their equipment, but also let them taste the feeling of watching others make money, but they can only stare dryly." ”
The emergence of this huge oil field in Somalia not only made up for the previous oil supply of the three Middle East countries, but also provided a large amount of oil to emerging oil-consuming countries such as China, which directly led to the original shortage of petroleum products becoming a large road cargo, and the price of oil fell sharply.
In fact, large oil-producing countries such as Saudi Arabia and Venezuela can increase their existing oil production by another 4o%, but because of the strategic concept of magnesium countries to prevent the excess oil from being bought by China, and also to maintain the stability of oil prices, countries have not produced more oil.
However, Somalia suddenly appeared, and it didn't care about the blockade of China at all. Hailong itself is a Chinese person, and that land has nurtured Hailong for 20 years, and Hailong's ancestral tablet. The family genealogy and ancestral graves are all in China. Huaxia is the root of the seamount, no matter when, the selong has the ability, the first thing to want to return is also his own motherland, how can he not sell oil to Huaxia.
Hilong even thought about merging Somalia with Huaxia into one country, but there were still many things to deal with in front of him, such as attacking Europe in the future, if he proposed to merge with Huaxia at this time. This idea is bound to be unfinished.
Therefore, Hailong is not in a hurry about this matter, when his dream is completed, at that time, it is the time when he will hand over the land he has laid to Huaxia.
Somalia sells oil to China at market prices, which leads to Saudi Arabia and other major oil-producing countries can only watch Somalia produce tens of billions of dollars more money every year.
Just yesterday, Saudi Arabia made an announcement. The daily crude oil output has been increased from 880,000 barrels to 980,000 barrels, directly increasing the output of 1 million barrels of crude oil, and countries such as Venezuela have not shown weakness. They have increased their output of hundreds of thousands of barrels of crude oil.
The reason why these countries have issued such statements around the world is to tell those countries in the world that did not have crude oil quotas not to go to Somalia without patronizing, and if it is close, they can come to us to buy oil, and we can sell more.
As a result, the futures price of crude oil in the New York stock market plummeted, from the original $1oo a barrel to $6o a barrel again. And there is a trend of continued decline.
Hilong's purpose this time is to get Ivanka back to the country of magnesium and buy stocks with his father who are bullish on crude oil futures. As oil-producing countries continue to ramp up production, everyone thinks that oil prices are getting lower and lower. However, Hilong knows that from tomorrow, the price of oil futures will jump upwards like a rocket.
In the face of the power of heaven and earth, any machinery and equipment are useless, Hilong prepared a storm feast to entertain the oil tycoons from all over the world, imagine what it would be like when a tornado of more than ten magnitudes raged near the oil fields.
Just as Hailong and Ivanka were discussing the purchase of stocks, a Dragon God Army guard hurriedly ran in and said to everyone: "Oh no, there are merchants in the port who are instigating other oil merchants to stop buying oil from us, and it seems that many merchants have been told to leave the port." ”
Hearing this, everyone present was furious, and the five girls were even more willow-eyebrowed, and they couldn't imagine that anyone would dare to do such a thing in Bossaso.
Seeing the appearance of his wives, Hailong sneered and said, "Let's go, let's go and see who is so bold." ”
In the port of Bossaso, a fat, bearded merchant named Anthony was standing at a table and giving an impassioned speech.
Anthony said loudly to the oil merchants present: "Listen to me, we can't let Somalia squeeze our profit margins like this, in order to buy oil, we have to drive a 3o thousand tons of oil tankers to Somalia thousands of miles, equipment loss, labor costs, fuel costs and this damn docking fee are our costs."
Nowadays, the price of oil has been lowered all over the world, only Somalia is still high, we demand that Somalia must follow the market price, otherwise, we demand an unconditional termination of the contract, magnesium people can go to Venezuela to buy oil, Europeans can buy oil in Saudi Arabia, we have no reason to continue to buy this damn high price of oil here. ”
Since the contract has been signed, then it should be done according to the provisions of the contract, and Anthony's words completely violate the principles of business and trample on the value of the contract like powder.
It's just that in the face of huge interests, where can businessmen take care of any contracts and principles, the price of oil outside is falling rapidly every day, and it seems that it is about to drop below 6o US dollars, but the price of oil in Somalia is still 1oo US dollars a barrel.
This price was the result of the desperation of the countries in the Middle East when they saw that the three countries in the Middle East could not produce oil, and Somalia had a large oil field, so each company only signed a short-term contract with Somalia for a period of three months.
The price of oil per barrel of US dollars is absolutely impossible to last long, and the major oil companies were ready to pinch their noses and admit that even if the price of crude oil is reduced, as long as they survive these three months, they will be able to negotiate a new contract with Somalia at that time.
However, who would have thought that the price of crude oil fell so violently, the difference in the price of each barrel of crude oil was 4o US dollars, what kind of concept is this, a tanker capable of carrying 3o tons of crude oil can carry 1.91 million barrels of crude oil, and the difference in the middle is 7.64 million US dollars.
Although crude oil at this price is taken back and refined and then sold, it is also profitable, but which company is willing to do business with such a big price difference.
Hearing the bearded Anthony's words, everyone agreed, and the people around them said together: "Anthony, we all listen to you, as long as you are willing to take the lead, we will follow you to the Somali to ask for a change in the contract." ”
Anthony said excitedly to everyone: "No problem, since everyone elected Anthony, Anthony will lead everyone to find the Somalis to seek justice, we are also in business, we can't let us lose money like this." ”
There are radical ones, there are timid ones, and just as everyone was discussing countermeasures, a somewhat fearful voice came, saying: "Mr. Anthony, what if the Somalis don't agree, what will we do?" ”
Hearing this man's words, everyone fell into deep thought for a moment.
Anthony saw that everyone was afraid again, and immediately said: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, everyone believe me, you know, now the world's major oil-producing countries have increased their crude oil production because of Somalia's uncontrolled oil production, so we don't have to be afraid of having no place to buy oil." ”
The man was not satisfied with Anthony's perfunctory, and said irritably: "Anthony, you said it easily, we don't have a quota of crude oil in our hands, they won't sell it to us." ”
In the era when oil was respected, if a company did not have a crude oil quota, it could not get a drop of oil from the oil-producing countries, and if it offended Somalia, those oil-producing countries would not sell their own oil because they did not have a crude oil quota, and their companies would not go out of business.
Anthony knew that everyone had such concerns, and patted his belly with a smile and said: "Everyone who knows me knows that I, Anthony, have a wide range of friends and friends all over the world.
This time, because of the increase in oil production in Somalia, my friends in various countries asked me to say hello to everyone, whether it is a businessman from the magnesium country, a businessman in Europe or a businessman in Asia, if they want to buy oil, they can come to me, I will be able to tell them where to buy oil, and guarantee that it will be sold at the current market price, which is at least 4o dollars cheaper than Somalia. ”
Anthony's words made everyone present completely fall into madness, every 100,000 tons can save more than 2ooo dollars, who doesn't do this business, they are clamoring to go to Somalia to change the contract.
Seeing that everyone had been provoked by his own words, Anthony inadvertently glanced at the young man who was arguing with him just now, smiled slightly, and said to everyone: "Let's go, I'll take everyone there, if Somalia doesn't agree, let's change places." ”
In fact, Anthony is a spy of the magnesium country, since oil has become an indispensable product in today's world, the intelligence department of the magnesium country has arranged for hundreds of agents to enter the business world in order to obtain information in the first time, and began to make oil voices.
When oil appeared in Somalia, the intelligence department of the magnesium country always felt that this matter was strange, and in less than a few days when the three Middle East countries did not have oil, a huge oil field appeared in Somalia, and this matter was too abnormal, so the magnesium people sent agent Anthony over to check the situation.
