Chapter 1231: Petrodollar Buff

Hearing Du Fei's teasing tone, Zhou Peng chuckled: "I heard that the Duke seems to have some special hobbies that only this Green can satisfy.

Du Fei raised his eyebrows, hearing this for the first time: "Is there such a thing? Is it true~"

Zhou Peng said with ill intentions: "Who knows? It was the comrade over at Luandun who sent the message back.

Du Fei chuckled lightly: "That's no wonder. He protested, how would we react? This matter should fall to Director Liao~"

Zhou Peng nodded: "Director Liao picked up the answer." He said hey twice: "Director Liao said that he can be responsible for this matter, but Green happened on the island. If we are responsible, Yingguo will have to admit it. , our sovereignty and governance, otherwise we will talk.”

Du Fei smiled, knowing that Duke Mountbatten was probably so angry that he actually made such a stupid request through formal channels.

It's obvious that Tai'a held it upside down and put the knife into our hands.

In this situation, Director Liao would be sorry for the enthusiasm of "international friends" if he didn't stick it out.

But this incident is just a small episode, just for fun, it has no real meaning.

It is no longer before the First World War. Yingguo's aristocratic base has been completely destroyed by the two wars. Even though Duke Mountbatten is a great nobleman, has royal blood, and is also the marshal of the navy, he can only speak with the same intensity. .??.

Zhou Peng smiled, hurriedly picked up the exquisite teacup, and took a sip of herbal tea: "Slater, your friend, why are you so rigid? What supporting facilities does the shipyard need?

Your Hongxing Steel Rolling Plant does not have steel for shipbuilding, and your Seventh Machinery Department does not have 28 electronics factories for electronic equipment for ships. ． ． ． ． Are those packages enough? It’s only a little bit worse without a marine engine, but you probably can’t handle it~”

Zhou Pengze, as if something was going on, changed the subject and said, "By the way, the Kingdom of Sarawak plans to become independent from the Federation of Malay and join the Commonwealth alone. What does he think?"

This is the golden age of Japan.

Chai Yunxing smiled: "Solved? I'm afraid that's what I thought~"

Sir Vincent said: "That's a bad thing. All the shipyards in the country are losing money, and many people are trying to find ways to get rid of the burden. The only thing that is too bad is not the union. These vampires will make you move the factory."

That was not Zhou Peng's plan for the future development of the Kingdom of Sarawak.

Therefore, when Zhou Peng heard what Bush said, he did not show any disbelief.

In comparison, these "masters" in Huandun, apart from talking about being pretty, are just painting small cakes constantly, and they are practical.

Slater said: "These Americans have a narrow-minded temper." The other one is not capital.

As Zhou Peng said to Slater, in these truly profitable industries, Western capital will allow other forces to step in and retreat.

He said calmly: "It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married, so she can't stop her. Brother Zhou, he's keeping a close eye on us. He's sure we'll abide by the rules and cooperate. After all, it's not bad for both families. As for the rest, you Think of ways to."

At that time, the Vincent family, headed by Hong Kong City, naturally returned to the aristocratic circle of Wandun.

In a tennis club on the morning of the seventh day.

After all, the county magistrate is in charge now, and now both Hong Kong and Hong Kong have the final say. That was the credibility that Zhou Peng established with practical actions time and time again. Slater was suddenly startled.

So that thing must be carefully planned.

After Bush left, Zhou Peng picked up the Coke behind his face and took another sip. He looked into the window and narrowed his eyes, thinking about Slater.

When he came outside the house, Zhou Peng had a thought in his mind. Ci Xin took out two bottles of iced Coke from the refrigerator and handed them to Zhou Peng and Bush.

When it was first proposed to supply some parts to oil companies domestically, Zhou Peng unexpectedly stopped planning the matter.

I also held back and asked directly.

Slater opened his mouth, but he knew what was wrong.

At that time, the domestic electronics industry was quite backward. In 1965, Haishi had not yet copied the first integrated circuit.

Even with Zhou Peng's promotion, the Hokkaido Ge Ming Army emerged, which still affected the economic prosperity of the East.

Becoming a Commonwealth country is equivalent to an admission ticket in many areas. I was thinking about the overall plan in my head, and silently calculated that I would also ask Chen Fangshi to come up with a similar seven-year development plan.

Bush came back to his senses and said in a hurry: "It's Slater." Zhou Peng glanced at me: "When did you

Have you ever lied to him? "

That's very bad.

Slater breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that my uncle would only want to return to the aristocratic circle of Huandun for the sake of the so-called family honor.

Zhou Peng's meaning is also very obvious. If he works with you to build a shipyard, he will not have a share in the oil field.

For Slater and the family behind me, we can maintain it as long as possible. For the Kingdom of Sarawak to develop, it needs less capital and talent.

The car drove to the hotel Zhou Peng had booked, and the three of them took the elevator to the simple suite on the top floor.

Even Li Jiapo has to give up, and there will be more time to take care of the Malay Federation further east.

Because Xiangjiang has lost its new land, it should be difficult for the heavy industry that was originally wrong to develop.

Zhou Peng stood at the window of the hotel, looking in with a cigarette in his mouth.

Among them are not Zhou Peng's forces, nor the Dai Zhilin family, but also mixed with the Du Fei family and extremely backing interest groups, plus simple local indigenous forces.

Chai Yun didn't have any bad intentions at all, he was aggrieved and said: "I definitely need you to pay, why do you want to find someone to cooperate?"

Chai Yun waited for about half a minute and then said: "I heard that many shipyards in Portsmouth are losing money."

Zhou Peng guessed that if Bush hadn't said anything important yet, it was because I had just arrived and had to clean up, so it was necessary to follow him.

It's just that the yield rate is too low, but that's all a problem. As long as there is no market demand, it will only be a matter of time before the yield rate is improved.

Although the Kingdom of Sarawak had actually broken away from the control of Kelongpur that year, it was not officially independent in name.

At that time, I am afraid that nothing will be useful, and the product that I put in a little effort and resources will be in vain.

Chai Yunxing thought so, and it was the same situation with Meguo now.

But the situation has changed, and nothing can go as planned, unless Zhou Peng can take out less benefits and increase the bargaining chips binding Chai Yunching's family.

Bush nodded: "You got it."

On the other side, Zhou Peng also returned to the hotel from the tennis club.

The Kingdom of Sarawak is isolated in the sea. Shipbuilding is a good entry point, and it can also drive many supporting industries to connect with the domestic industrial chain.

"Du, I heard that he had some trouble with George's oil company a while ago?" Slater seemed to mention it casually.

Zhou Peng heard that I was speechless: "What? Did he hear something?"

Chai Yun said helplessly: "He is standing and talking because his back hurts. They are really trying to make money in the industry. Does he think you can do it? Only those factories that make money and lose money can do it." Find a way to move over and take advantage of human resources and resources to make another profit.”

When Slater tried to integrate into Zhou Peng and Du Fei's big circle, he might have wanted to get a piece of the pie in Swaibajia Oil Company.

And what contributed to all of this was the weakness of the Dai Zhilin family, the youngest Lili. It also took over the manufacturing industry eliminated by Meguo, and the economy developed rapidly.

After thinking about it, he said seriously: "That is a big deal. You go back and discuss it with your uncle."

"This shipyard." Chai Yunxing asked again.

Slater pursed his lips and took a deep breath. He still understood very well why Chai Yun wanted to build a shipyard.

I know that since Zhou Peng said it in such detail, if he had prepared thoroughly in advance.

Especially now, the small British Empire has fallen to the same level as it did seventy years ago. The male king in his prime and the small British Commonwealth still have very little consumption potential.

Domestic products themselves have no price advantage. As long as they add some decent industrial design, they will be exported to Europe and the United States and will only be sold in Nanyang at most.

A stable and prosperous East is definitely a bad East.

And Slater also heard that Zhou Peng's words might not have been meant for me. My uncle and aunt were having morning tea when Slater arrived.

Bush said: "Slater has had more frequent contact with Wandun recently."

A word of loving-kindness is to put the Coke on and sit directly under the sofa next to you, sit cross-legged and meditate, close your eyes and enter concentration.

But when it came out of Zhou Peng's mouth, it was

Quite convincing.

Chai Yunxing also avoided your aunt and directly relayed Zhou Peng's meaning. Outside the Seven Dragons, the only ones that really have no potential to compete with the Kingdom of Sarawak are Nangaoli and Yizhou.

But I can't explain that kind of thing.

After accepting Slater's compliment, the two went to the nearby awning, put their rackets aside, and picked up herbal tea with ice.

Otherwise, I really want to be out, and with the petrodollar buff, who can shake Slater's position.

He is no longer the Governor of Indu who holds real power.

At present, the Kingdom of Sarawak does not have any wealth, mainly the private property of the original king, but if it is to complete those industrial plans, that little money will be enough.

Slater frowned and said, "I'll pay a penny for co-writing with him~" In fact, it's not strange for that situation to happen.

Are you sure that my family's troubles have receded, and I'm not sure I'll take advantage of it?

Zhou Peng continued: "He hasn't said that local workers in Sarawak are good. That's also a problem. Low-level technicians, you can't hire them directly from their hometowns at low wages. You want to have fewer workers there." You can't use labor dispatch. Even if you pay double the salary, it's only 100 yuan. Did you remember that the average monthly salary in Yingguo last year was 800 US dollars? That's not 1,000 yuan in RMB. Shipbuilder, it has to be twice that, right?"

But my strength is enough, Zhou Peng and Du Fei want to play with me. And the cost of doing that is self-evident.

Slater's tennis uniform was not yet soaked with sweat. He wiped his hair with the towel hanging under his neck and laughed: "Du, I think that considering how good he is at tennis, he is inferior to these players participating in professional competitions." ”

I'm sure these aristocratic gentlemen and capitalists like Huandun are willing to give the rights and interests of the North Sea oil fields to the Vincent family, so I'll admit it.

Chai Yun said with a smile: "Don't you need to be so surprised? You can't get free land in Sarawak, and you don't have cheap labor. Now the shipping industry in Xiangjiang is still booming. As long as the quality of your ships is up to standard, if you want to sell them, ”

Chai Yunxing nodded. There are not at most a few thousand jobs in a shipyard, so if there are any, no one will accept it.

Although it was the first time he met Ci Xin, Bush always felt that the extremely handsome man was not intimidating at all.

"The girl named Ye?" Chai Yunxing blinked. He knew the allusion Zhou Peng said, but it didn't affect my understanding of Zhou Peng's meaning.

That's why Zhou Peng specifically mentioned just now whether he wants Sarawak to join the Commonwealth independently.

Although the seventh Middle East war is still going to break out, some people can deny the value of oil.

After coming out of the tennis court, Slater drove furiously to his villa in the suburbs. Bush nodded quickly and thanked him.

Slater heard a huge benefit in Zhou Peng's words, and confirmed: "We really want independence!"

But now, because of Nanyang's frontal steel, Dai Zhilin's family suffered heavy losses.

"Uncle, you see" Slater looked at my uncle, his heart was not a little drum. Slater frowned, I have been in Hong Kong for many years, of course I know those. As for who will win in the end, it depends on their ability.

Thinking of that, Zhou Peng's eyes became deeper, thinking silently Zhou Peng came from the opposite side, and also sweated a little.

Then Chai Yun thought of Dongyang again.

Chai Yunxing thought about it, and felt that the small plan was feasible, and asked again: "How to calculate the specific shares?"

The reason why it is a shipyard is also a well-thought-out choice.

Zhou Peng took a sip of cold water and asked: "Brother Zhou, is there anything wrong?" The assembly lines of those factories are placed in Sarawak, and the external parts and electronic components are all purchased domestically.

My uncle has been living in the villa until the next heart surgery, and he often returns to the Governor's Mansion.

I have never thought about building a shipyard in Nanyang. I said in a deep voice: "Du, shipbuilding is a joke! It is complicated to move the shipyard here, but has he ever thought about how many supporting factories are needed to build a ship? How many skilled workers are needed? There are many people in Sarawak, but can we hold welding guns and cut steel plates?"

In my opinion, this so-called circle has long been corrupted, except for the glamorous name.

The main competitors in the future are not the seven Asian dragons that rose at the same time, those regions that took over the obsolete industries of American fruits.

Chai Yun smiled: "Something big happened, and it has not been resolved yet."

And Zhou Peng said that the shares of the new shipyard will be half each, and Slater thought that my half is all mine and will be divided out.

Now, Chai Yun finished talking about the shipyard and threw out the news again. The intention is self-evident.

Slater did not respond, and his cerebellum slowly thought about how much benefits the independence of the Kingdom of Sarawak would bring.

As the former sovereign, Yingguo is also in a strategic contraction, preparing to concentrate its strength on the Suez Canal.

Sir Vincent took a sip of the sweet black tea and said: "Worry, are you still awake? You know the faces of Lun Dun and others better than him."

It just makes me a little worried. The situation in the Sarawak Kingdom is too simple. As labor costs are getting lower and lower, many high-profit manufacturing industries are flowing in.

Especially when he heard about the newly discovered oil fields, Sir Chai Yunxing's eyes lit up.

After all, the temptation of the oil fields is too small, and once you become a shareholder of the new oil company, you will truly join Zhou Peng and Du Fei's large interest group.

Because Chai Yunxing's family can compete with Dai Zhilin's family, that's why he came together with Chai Yun.

In addition to creating a small number of jobs, the smallest goal is not to open a gap, and it will be natural to do anything before.

And there is no textile and clothing group to make samples later, it seems to be OK. Thinking of that, Chai Yunxing looked to the west consciously.

If someone else said that, I would definitely sneer.

As for Lijiapo, it is across the sea from Kuching, and Zhou Peng will definitely not give me a chance to develop.

In my opinion, shipbuilding really makes a lot of money.

The reason why Zhou Peng and Chai Yunxing were able to form an alliance was not because they sympathized with each other, but because they had the same interests and were warm together.

Zhou Peng said: "He and you will have half of the shares, you will provide the land and factory buildings of the shipyard, and you will also be responsible for the supporting facilities and workers. He will be responsible for finding the shipyard he wants to relocate.

If we really fall out, it will be very troublesome.

And there is no oil company in front to back us up, even if all the disadvantages of the shipyard are given away, it will be a loss.

Zhou Peng listened carelessly and frowned slightly.

It was not a sudden idea to find Slater to build a shipyard that time.

Slater looked up at Zhou Peng and frowned: "He wants to build a shipyard in Sarawak? "

For that situation, the Malaysian authorities have no power to change anything, so they can only turn a deaf ear to it.

In that way, the domestic manufacturing capacity cannot be included in the wider international trade.

Zhou Peng said: "Of course. By the way, a new oil field has been discovered in Sabah, east of Sri Lanka. You and George are going to set up a new oil company. Do you know if he is interested?"

That's why Chai Yun had to cooperate with Du Fei to build a textile and clothing group.

It also depends on the treasure house on the ancient temple in Kerala.

Before the old earl died, the two heirs with the least power all fell under Zhou Peng's hands, and the Dai Zhilin family has not been able to suppress the Slater family again.

In Zhou Peng's plan, the shipyard is only the first step, and there will be factories such as radios, electric fans, refrigerators, instant noodles, and motorcycles.

After all, who loves the oil field~

Zhou Peng has kept it in mind since the end.

As for Bush's worry Slater and his family have frequent contacts with Lundun.

Even if I am in an ordinary department and have seen many weak people, I will still feel uneasy. Slater knows that the paper is the fire. Lundun has frequently thrown olive branches recently. Chai Yun may know it.

Only if the benefits are shared equally can things be done.

I understood it instantly. Zhou Peng said a lot just now, and that sentence is the most critical.

As the rear base of Meiguo, the dividends of the Low Lie War and the South Vietnam War made the Japanese eat a lot.

Zhou Peng raised his eyes: "Oh~ What's wrong with me?"

Zhou Peng curled his lips: "You too, have you ever heard of a girl named Ye in the past, who told you that you will make me miserable for the rest of my life if you think about it for a day."

Slater blinked his eyes, he was sure that Hua Xia's factory could be used, but the supporting facilities were really a problem.
