Chapter 918 Restarting Oil Transportation
After seeing Nimitz's taste, Li Zitao became very melancholy.
Now, should the gift he brings be given, or not be given?
"Ava, bring the gift here." After thinking about it, Li Zitao decided to give it to him.
To put it in the most incomprehensible words: I have brought all the belts, so why not bring them back.
"General Nimitz, this is a gift from the boss." Ava put two bottles of cylindrical objects wrapped in oiled paper on the table.
"What is this?" Nimitz looked at the inconspicuous little thing in front of him with curious eyes.
"Baijiu is refined by the ancient wine-making technology of Huaguo." Ava explained from the side.
"Wow." Nimitz spread his hands and said in surprise, "My friend, this is the best gift I have ever received."
"Do you want to try it?" Li Zitao grabbed the wine bottle wrapped in oiled paper, and gently untied the twine that was still covered with dirt.
"Of course." Nimitz drank the vodka in the glass in one gulp, and couldn't wait to sit beside him, his little eyes fixed on the unsealed wine bottle.
Soon Li Zitao opened the top seal, and the aroma of wine overflowed, making Nimitz swallow with green eyes.
"More, Charlie, more." Seeing that Li Zitao only poured him half a glass, Nimitz urged dissatisfied.
"Dude, it has great stamina, you don't want to spend the whole day in the office, do you?" Li Zitao persuaded with a funny face.
"Don't you believe my drinking capacity?" Nimitz's soybean-sized eyes widened vigorously, looking even more ridiculous.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Helplessly filling up for him, Li Zitao waited for the next good show.
Sure enough, Nimitz raised his glass and sniffed it as if he was drinking normally, and put it to his mouth with great enjoyment.
Gudong.
A small half of the cup disappeared into his mouth, and the muscles on Nimitz's face were huddled together, but they soon eased away.
"Oh beautiful,
I have never had such a delicious wine. Nimitz looked at the remaining wine in the glass in his hand, and murmured obsessively, "It's so beautiful." "
"This wine has been buried in the soil for 60 years, and it is very rare even in China." Li Zitao mentioned its origin seemingly casually.
"Oh, it's incredible." Nimitz couldn't help putting the cup to his mouth as he spoke.
Take a deep sip, first entangled, then enjoyed, and then intoxicated
Nimitz's expression kept changing between the three, and the cup in his hand was constantly being filled.
"Charlie, I'm going to have another drink." After drinking about 6 taels, Nimitz was a bit lost.
Holding the wine glass wobbly, he kept asking for wine.
Although this old wine tastes particularly mellow and soft, its stamina is not small at all.
As long as it comes up, nothing can stop it.
"It seems that you really have to spend today in the office." Taking the cup from his hand, Li Zitao motioned for Ava to call for someone.
As the highest officer in the Pacific region, it was no small matter for Nimitz to get drunk, so it was better to let his guards and secretary take care of it.
Fortunately, the situation in the Pacific War has been developing in a favorable direction.
Nimitz also had a lot less responsibility, otherwise, he wouldn't have allowed himself to be so drunk.
How could he be an alcoholic to be promoted to admiral, commander of the Pacific region, and command the most powerful fleet in the United States.
He was expressing his friendship with Li Zitao in this way.
Seeing the guard and the secretary put him on the sofa to rest, Li Zitao did not leave.
The drunk Nimitz did not make him wait too long, and he opened his eyes after about 40 minutes.
"I haven't relaxed like this for a long time." Nimitz sat on the sofa with his hands propped up on his body, enjoying the current state very much.
He didn't lose consciousness just now, he just took a nap with the help of alcohol.
The slightly drowsy, comfortable feeling of unloading the burden of the whole body swept away his long-term boredom and stress.
"My friend, if you like it, I will ask people to collect more in Huaguo and give it to you. Nothing can compare to the friendship between us."
Li Zitao smiled hypocritically. With this hypocritical mask, he has become more and more proficient.
"Thank you, Charlie." Nimitz smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "It seems that I can't escape."
"Tell me, what exactly do you want?" Nimitz no longer avoided this topic.
"I'm here to look for you. We haven't seen each other for a long time." Ignoring Nimitz's disgusted expression, Li Zitao continued, "Of course, I have a small request."
"I hope that companies related to me, such as the Blue and White Chamber of Commerce, can obtain the protection of the navy in the Pacific region during ocean transportation."
Mobil's oil voyage transportation has been suspended for so long, causing huge losses every day, and he wants to resume oil transportation in the Persian Gulf as soon as possible.
The Germans also wanted to invade the Persian Gulf before, but with the protection of the British and French allied forces and the fire support of the Persian Gulf itself, they stubbornly repelled the enemy's attack.
In addition, with the development of oil, the chiefs have also become rich. In order to ensure their own status and the integrity of the country, they wantonly purchased advanced weapons in the international market.
It is said that after spending astronomical sums, they also obtained two lightning orders from Washington. This world-leading fighter jet has made the chiefs eager to see it.
Adding up a few points, it finally lasted until the Desert Fox fled in a panic.
When the situation is unstable, Li Zitao can pretend that Meifu and Washington will come and go, arguing with each other.
Now that the situation is stable, it would be an idiot to sit back and watch the money slip away.
"Charlie, you should understand that's what Washington means, and I have no right to do that." Nimitz looked at him in embarrassment.
"Of course I know." Li Zitao smiled easily and said, "Washington's order will arrive soon, I just want extra care beyond the order."
The county magistrate is not as good as the current one, and that's what he said.
The same is the escort, the result is a world of difference whether you use it carefully or not.
He didn't want to receive the news that the oil tanker was hijacked by the Japanese not long after the ocean transportation started.
It is enough for the last incident to happen once, even with the wealth and power of SHIELD, there are not so many elites to sacrifice.
A person who dares to sacrifice his life and is loyal.
Even if it is piled up with money, it is one less.
If possible, Li Zitao would never want to hear news about their deaths.
"If that's the case, I don't think there will be any more problems." Nimitz's answer was generous and emphatic.
In the Pacific, the American fleet has achieved an overwhelming victory over the Japanese.
The strategic locations and islands distributed in the Pacific Ocean are also gradually being gathered in the hands of the United States.
As long as they really work hard and the tanker travels according to the scheduled route, the chance of an accident is no different from winning the first prize in the lottery.
