Chapter 436 The Sinking Giant Ship
Pay protection fees to the United States, and most of the time, there is no way to guarantee your safety. On May 14th, the world's largest supertanker was sunk by Mr. Silly Damu.
Hundreds of thousands of tons of crude oil poured out, which can be regarded as a disaster.
I don't know when it started to attack civilian targets as a matter of course. I really can't figure it out, Harpoon missiles are also very expensive, if you have this spare time, why don't you go to fight the US emperor?
Silly Damu is obviously breaking the can, anyway, he wants to attract the attention of the outside world. If you don't care about this mess, don't even think about using cheap oil.
From the perspective of a third party, you cannot say that there is anything wrong with this choice. Maybe there will be consequences. Silly Damu really can't control so much at the moment.
Lao Mei was very depressed. They found that not only was the situation getting out of control, but their deterrence was also declining. As long as your aircraft carrier is not nearby, they will find a way to kill any ship in this area.
"Felson, I already know that a huge tanker has sunk."
"Yes, boss, the international oil price has suddenly soared. If the situation is not controlled, an oil crisis may really occur." Filson's worries, you can't say that there is no reason, the word oil crisis was originally born in desert area.
"It's still the previous judgment. The stupid big wood is already crazy, but that's roughly the case. The United States Congress will increase the size of the escort fleet. There is also good news. Maozi will withdraw from Afghanistan within a week."
William White's words were a reassurance for Ferson. Compared with Maozi's withdrawal of troops, supertankers are nothing.
"Boss, so to speak, silly big wood is the last madness."
"Hehe, even if it wasn't, I think that Peanut's patience is gone. If this guy dares to mess around, I believe there will be no good results. Our little brother has paid so much protection fees, but they can't guarantee their safety. Is this an attempt to make people take refuge in Maozi?"
The dark oil brings not only shiny gold, but also bloody killings to this desert.
It is strange to say that most of the places with such religious beliefs have oil. Could it be said that this is their welfare?
"Boss, precious metals have fluctuated a lot recently, do you need to..."
William White frowned and pondered for a moment and said: "Forget it, I am more like a scourge to the futures trading center. I just use physical gold to borrow money, and I don't want to provoke their sensitive nerves. I don't want to be the second Hunter." family."
Since the boss insisted, Filson couldn't say anything, but just exchanged a large sum of money for physical gold. Speaking of which, the London Trading Center also loves and hates this customer. With hundreds of tons of gold reserves, what are you going to play with?
How do these guys know that if William White doesn't take a trip around London, the tax office won't let him go. It’s okay if you don’t come back with these funds abroad. If you come back, you have to pay taxes, and pay taxes severely.
As for now, this cannot be accepted for the time being, people have invested in gold, what can you say.
As for the money that came back, the amount was not much, and these were all loans from John Bull, so you don't necessarily have to grab them directly.
Of course, being targeted by the tax bureau is also inevitable.
"William, give up the oil industry, regret it now, our family's assets have been increasing in value." On the other end of the phone, little Bushu said not without showing off.
"Hehe, then congratulations. Seriously, if my family needs your background, you think I will give up. In fact, John Bull is engaged in privatization, and I can buy BP during the stock market crash."
Little Bushu was speechless, this guy would be fine if he didn't open his mouth, and he would choke when he opened his mouth. No matter how good his family's oil industry is, it can't be compared with BP.
"Tch, don't worry, they will never sell it." Little Bushu was a little unwilling, and was still trying to argue.
"Okay, okay, George, I really don't dare to touch oil. In fact, I don't dare to touch any of these things, such as communications, steel, chemicals, and medicine."
After a moment of silence, little Bushu said: "My father said you are smart, but I am still a little bit unconvinced. Now it seems that you are indeed smarter."
"Hehe, let's not talk about this, what's the matter?"
"Ahem, I think economic development is very important in the next stage..."
"Okay, I see, I appreciate your vision very much."
Little Bush didn't understand, of course he wanted to speak more tactfully, but it seemed that he only spoke half of what he had prepared. How did this guy know?
Of course William White knew it. The current election campaign is in full swing, and the strong rebound of the US economy has naturally increased the bargaining chips of the elephants. They do not want public opinion to be deflected.
Wouldn't it be a waste if William White was not used at this time.
"Is that what he said?"
"Yes, father, does he understand at all?"
"Hehe, I was also negligent. It's inconvenient to talk on the phone. Now is the critical moment. Have you forgotten the lesson of the Watergate incident?"
"They can't."
"Hmph, who knows, but that kid must know how to do it. If there is anything to do recently, use the satellite phone, or go in person."
William White is really not unfounded. The temptation brought by power is sometimes greater than money. How big a deal is it to take risks for the sake of power?
It's not right to say that silly Damu is acting like an idiot now. At least, in this election year, no one wants to be attached to this guy.
The people of American imperialism are still very afraid of war. Not to mention the battle of Iwo Jima, even on a smaller scale, they would not accept it.
In fact, many people believe that American imperialism should not have been involved in World War I and World War II.
Hehe, there is really no way to say this thing, that is, the US emperor, your house has not been smashed, of course you can say it casually, the country that has been invaded doesn't think so.
It is speechless that there are still many people who have this idea. As for Pearl Harbor, many people don't remember it, or in other words, they avenged their revenge with a big killer anyway, so other things don't matter.
A Jumbo was sunk, and the US emperor's reaction was somewhat confusing. Those who condemn Shenma seem to be out of style with this guy. You are a cowboy, pretending to be a gentleman, even if you can't help it for a while, you can't go wrong by yelling.
Well, you said that the ship didn't fly the Stars and Stripes, so it doesn't belong to Laomei's assets.
Let's not joke, isn't there Resolution 598? Isn't it your responsibility as an international policeman to ensure the safety of navigation in public waterways?
The decline in international influence is an indisputable fact, and it is also the culprit for the decline in the US dollar. Fortunately, Maozi is also weak, and he seems to have no ability to interfere.
Why did the silly big wood go crazy and rob the neighbor's house next door?
Didn't you just see the weakness of the US emperor?
It's just a pity that it's one thing that the US emperor is not strong, but you yourself are weaker, don't you know?
