Chapter 373: The Crystal Palace's Shock
Hailong beckoned Ali and the others out, and led everyone towards the underwater restaurant-top-point-small-said-
Although at the beginning of 2001, the international price of crude oil rose again to $25 a barrel, but within a few months, the price of crude oil fell all the way, and in early 2002, the international price of crude oil had dropped to $19 a barrel.
Just when countries around the world were cheering that oil prices had finally fallen, international crude oil prices rebounded violently, surpassing the highest price in 2001 in May, reaching $27 a barrel.
In recent months, it has remained around this price, and there is a clear upward momentum, which makes oil futures speculators happy, and at the same time makes a large number of countries that demand oil feel melancholy.
The reason for this is that at the beginning of this year, Arab countries began a huge anti-corruption campaign, and the primary target of anti-corruption is the Arab oil system.
Since the end of World War II, the world has entered a prosperous development, and the countries of the third world have gradually emerged, and when the domestic economy is booming, oil has become an indispensable product.
If you want to buy oil, the first object is OPEC members, and OPEC members have rules that oil must be supplied according to quotas.
At that time, China did not join OPEC because oil exports were the main source of foreign exchange, and today, 60% of China's oil needs to be purchased from foreign countries, which led to the tragedy of China.
For OPEC member countries, when you sold oil to steal business with our OPEC members, now you want to buy oil from us, you are a good guy and a bad guy, how can there be such a good thing.
So, in a situation where oil is in short supply. OPEC members do not sell oil to Huaxia, but it is only through the efforts made by Huaxia later that a small amount of crude oil import quotas have been obtained among OPEC members.
However, this quota of crude oil is far from being able to meet China's demand for oil, but it still has to find a way to buy oil.
In order to think of a way to buy oil, the officials in China have broken their heads, as the biggest drawback of a monarchy, that is, a certain high-level in China discovered this problem and came up with a way to buy oil from OPEC member countries.
That is bribery, if OPEC gives China a quota of 10,000 tons of crude oil. By bribing high-ranking officials, Huaxia is often able to bring back hundreds of thousands of tons of crude oil.
This has led to the fact that OPEC's so-called crude oil quota has become an empty word, in fact, all OPEC member countries have this situation, but everyone wants to make money, and no one takes the initiative to talk about it.
However, since the beginning of the year, starting with Saudi Arabia, the anti-corruption wave that has gradually swept the entire OPEC member countries has led to countries without oil quotas once again falling into a crisis of oil shortage.
Huaxia bore the brunt. When Hailong happily took Ali and others to visit his hotel, Qiao Yu came to Hailong's side and pulled Hailong over.
I thought that Qiao Yu was not in the hotel, but I saw Qiao Yu giving him a look. Hailong followed Qiao Yu and came to a remote room, Hailong was just about to ask why, when he saw Director Su Lin Su sitting on the sofa with a smile and waiting for him.
Hailong looked at Qiao Yu. Qiao Yu said innocently: "Don't look at me, it was Su Lin who asked me to pull you over, and I am not allowed to say the reason." ”
Hear Qiao Yu's words. Su Lin walked over with a smile and said apologetically: "No way, Dragon King, I have to do this, you are now a figure with thousands of eyes in one, I don't dare to contact you openly." ”
Helong asked, "What's going on?" ”
Su Lin said excitedly to Hailong: "Dragon King, did you buy Iran's offshore oil fields? ”
Hailong nodded and said, "Yes, I just bought it, is there any problem?" ”
Hearing Hailong's affirmative reply, Su Lin said excitedly: "Brother, can you transport the oil back and sell it to our country." ”
Helong smiled and said, "Is something wrong?" ”
At the moment, Surin said that the anti-corruption in Arab countries has led to a shortage of crude oil in the country.
Hearing this, Hailong said with a smile: "Okay, since you have spoken, then I will pull it all back to sell, when buddy is enough, you can rest assured, I will buy oil tankers, and in the future, the oil I drill will be pulled to our Huaxia to sell, but you have to give me a reasonable price, not the price." ”
As long as Surin has oil, the country is not bad for money, and the dollar does not, but there is more than the amount of RMB Surin, and how much Sulin wants, how much Surin can give.
After seeing Hailong's agreement, Su Lin was very grateful to Hailong, knowing that Hailong had guests there, so he chatted a few words and left, while Hailong returned to Ali and the others, and continued to take Ali and others towards the underwater world.
When Hailong was taken away by Surin, Ali, Ivanka and others visited the hotel around, looking at the exquisite decoration of the hotel, everyone couldn't help but sigh and said, "This hotel is so beautiful." ”
Hailong, who happened to come back from talking, heard the conversation of Ali and others, and Hailong said with a smile: "There are more beautiful ones, I'll take you to see them." ”
At that moment, I took Ali and Ivanka and others to the negative floor by elevator.
As soon as they arrived at the negative floor, as soon as the elevator opened, everyone just looked up and saw two 7-meter-long great white sharks, staring at them cruelly.
At that moment, the timid Ambrosio and others hid in the warm arms of the men around them for a moment, and Ivanka hid in Helong's arms and didn't dare to come out.
Ali and the others were amazed by the ability of the selong, and they didn't expect that the selong even caught the 7-meter-long great white shark to come back to see the door.
Seeing the scene at the door, everyone's hearts are returning, this underwater restaurant is definitely worth the trip, Hilong led everyone through the shark area, and walked into the underwater restaurant under the fierce gaze of the shark.
Behind the shark area are the one-meter-long crabs, the eyes of the crabs are the size of glass balls, and when everyone passes by, their eyes look at everyone fiercely, waving half-meter-long pincers, demonstrating to Ali and Ivanka and others.
Seeing such a big crab for the first time made everyone even more surprised, different from king crab. This is an ordinary crab, and it can grow so big.
Walking further inside, what I saw was a blue half-meter-long lobster, with a dark blue shell, which was so fascinating, and when I saw this blue lobster, Ivanka and other beauties couldn't help it, and ran over excitedly to watch it carefully.
Blue lobsters have a 1 in 20 million chance of being produced. As Europeans and Americans, the status of blue lobster in the minds of Ivanka and Ambrosio and others is quite high, and if you want to eat blue lobster, it is hard to find, not to mention this blue lobster that is more than half a meter long.
After passing through the lobster area, the next thing I saw was a large area of red and pink one-meter-high coral trees, which made everyone even more amazed, and now they can't find a one-meter-high coral 200 meters below the water, unless you go to Bermuda.
And dive below 200 meters. The equipment alone costs $10 million, and the only one who can afford to buy it is the scientific team, a hotel that spends $10 million to get some coral. That's a lack of heart.
Besides, you have to be able to find it even if you have equipment, and there are any species in the sea below 200 meters that humans don't know. What if you run into a turtle or something and get bitten to death, not to mention the area where you find coral.
So. Seeing these one-meter-high corals, Ali had to marvel, the seamount is really amazing, there is no such coral group Burj Al Arab.
When everyone finally came to the last floor of the restaurant, they saw hundreds of money ducks wandering in groups in the water, and everyone had a sense of madness.
Money fish, the United Nations first-class wild protected fish, doesn't it mean that it is about to become extinct, why are there so many here, count them, hundreds, according to the market price, this is more than a billion.
Ali had a crazy feeling at this time, as the world's top ten most expensive dishes, the money duck is only ranked behind the white truffle, ranking second in the world.
Unlike white truffles, which can often be bought in the auction house, and money fish, even if it is Ali, it is difficult to eat it if you want to eat it once, because this kind of fish, in the vast sea, wants to catch it completely depends on luck.
Hilong smiled and said to Ali: "Brother Ali, brother, how does this underwater world of mine feel compared to the underwater world of the Burj Al Arab Hotel. ”
Ali exclaimed in amazement: "Allah, brother, this underwater world of yours is much more powerful than the Burj Al Arab." ”
Helong put his arm around Ali's shoulders and said, "That's it, buddy is tired enough to collect these things." ”
Ali looked at the money duck in front of him, and then at the helong, and couldn't help but admire.
Ali excitedly took countless photos and sent them to Gambizan's mobile phone, and then called Gambizan to reply, just such a hotel, has already shown that Hilong has the strength of this money.
Hilong took Ali and others to play in Donghai City for two days, but there was a banquet all over the world, Ali and others were going to leave after all, and Ivanka and others also received a reminder call from the modeling agency.
On the last night of Helong's place, after dinner, everyone went back to their rooms, for each had to say their final goodbyes to the treasure in their arms.
After a month, the relationship between Petrov and Ambrosio heated up rapidly, Ye Huairen and Ke'er were also like glue, Ali After getting familiar with Hailong and others, Ali also revealed his true nature, hugging Anna every day and not letting go, so that Anna couldn't raise her head in front of everyone, and now they are going to separate, and everyone is telling their feelings in their respective rooms.
In the hotel, Ivanka snuggled in Helong's arms and said nostalgically: "Brother Dragon King, I have to be separated from you tomorrow, I am so reluctant." ”
Hailong was also reluctant, and even more reluctant to the two big papayas, his hands were rubbing unruly, and Hailong said lovingly: "I can't bear you either, if you have any difficulties back in New York, you can call me, and I will fly over to find you as soon as possible." ”
Hearing Hailong's words, Ivanka nodded sweetly, closed her eyes, and let Hailong, the villain, do it, this night, Hailong didn't have any reservations for the first time, and did it for six hours in a row, so that Ivanka felt how powerful Hailong was for the first time.
When Hilong yelled and ended, Ivanka was already sweating all over, and she didn't have any strength to lie on the bed, but looking at Hilong's gaze, she was even more amorous, and she lay in Hilong's arms with great effort, and Ivanka said to Helong with disgust: "Villain, why is it so long today." ”
Hailong sighed and said, "I'm afraid you'll forget about me after you return to the Magnesium Country, so I hope to give you an unforgettable memory." ”
Hearing Helong's aggrieved words, Ivanka lay on Helong's body and said comfortingly: "Villain, people's hearts have been conquered by you, from now on, people will be your people, promise not to be this kind of person with other boys, if I miss you, I will call you, this is not okay." ”
Hearing Ivanka's words, Helong nodded beautifully, and Ivanka couldn't stop laughing. (To be continued......)
