Chapter 407 Chu Feng's Decision (Please Vote, Please Subscribe)
As for the passion to serve the country and patriotism that everyone kept talking about, Chu Feng simply found it ridiculous.
What kind of country should I serve as a man who traveled from another world?
The first reason why he signed such a huge contract was sympathy.
He had great sympathy for the current poor situation of Dragon Country, especially for the difficult life of the lower-class people, and if it was just something within his ability, he was still willing to help.
That's right.
In the eyes of others, the manganese metal worth trillions is actually just that, a drizzle.
For Chu Feng, this is a trivial matter!!
As long as he wants, he can turn manganese ore into a cockroach price overnight with his own strength as he holds the entire marine mineral resources.
Whether it is 50,000 per ton or 50 cents per ton, the price of manganese ore in the whole world is actually decided by him.
So, it seems to be a big sacrifice, but it is just that.
Moreover, such a tycoon's move can also increase the popularity of the entire Dragon Country, indirectly showing people that Xingchen is not short of resources, but that life in Xingchen is very comfortable, thereby invisibly increasing the yearning of the lower-class people for Xingchen.
Although this move is a bit silly, the lower-class people in all major bases are all more eagerly looking forward to Xingchen recruiting from them, hoping to join this tycoon family.
In this way, why wouldn't Chu Feng do it?
However, whether it is sympathy or popularity, these are actually superficial reasons, and the main reason why he is willing to pay such a high price is safety.
What safety?
Of course, it is the safety of the seabed mining site.
You know, Xingchen's seabed mining site is very eye-catching now.
At present, in addition to the Pioneer 4 that was delivered to Longguo before, Xingchen still has three Pioneer mining vehicles, with a monthly mining volume of nearly 1 million tons of manganese nodules and an annual output of more than 10 million tons, accounting for one-fifth of the total manganese metal mining volume in the world.
Manganese metal is the most important raw material for steel at present, especially the main raw material for making weapons, and its importance is beyond doubt.
Therefore, many people are eyeing the Xingchen mining site.
There are major powers;
There are extremely powerful sects and families of superpowers;
There are even some powerful autonomous shelters.
Although the Xingchen submarine mining site is very hidden and has deployed a whole legion of defense forces, it is stretched to the limit for many coveters, and even far from enough.
If Xingchen had not shown his muscles on the Sun Country before and shocked everyone, I am afraid that the mining site would have been attacked long ago.
And now?
The overall situation of the Blue Water Star is becoming more and more dangerous. Every large base is desperately stockpiling resources, among which steel, as one of the four major industrial raw materials, is particularly scarce.
To put it bluntly, there is a lack of high-manganese steel, which has led to more and more "great white sharks" watching around the Xingchen submarine mining site, and they are getting stronger and stronger.
A few nuclear bombs alone cannot scare people.
In this regard, Chu Feng has reason to believe that this peaceful mining environment will not last long.
So Xingchen needs an ally, a powerful and relatively reliable ally to safeguard the interests of seabed mining, and who in the world is more suitable than Longguo?
This 5 million ton order is actually the olive branch thrown by Xingchen, the first "insurance premium".
When signing the contract, Xingchen and the official, or more precisely, Chu Feng and the elder, have reached a tacit understanding and consensus.
That is, Longguo blocks external threats and protects the safety of the seabed mining site, and the manganese nodules mined by Xingchen will naturally have their share.
As for why not cooperate directly with the official?
Nonsense.
Of course, Chu Feng is afraid that the official will swallow him directly.
After all, he is not as strong as others.
If he encounters some big guys who are ugly, this is definitely not impossible.
In the face of huge interests, Chu Feng never has too much hope for the goodness of human nature, and he will not try it. The best way is not to give them a chance to start.
Of course.
In fact, there is another reason for giving so much at once.
That is the guarantor.
He wanted Longguo to build a wall defense system as soon as possible and build more war weapons, so that more people could be protected in the future.
After all, there are people who have shelters, and more people means more shelters.
And these people in the future will be his leeks. For the safety of these leeks... no, the safety of the lower-class people, he doesn't mind paying a little more cost in advance.
But now?
Someone made him unhappy, which made him feel very happy.
"I originally wanted to shine my heart on the moon, but the moon shines on the ditch."
No matter how much sympathy;
No matter how many reasons for cooperation;
No matter how many interests;
...
These are not reasons for others to play with the stars at will! !
No one can play with the stars!
The anger of the stars is not something they can bear!
This time, Chu Feng decided to fight back. He wanted to teach these officials who were usually high and mighty a lesson.
Moreover, so much helium-3 would not allow him to give up.
So Chu Feng looked at Ouyang Xiu'er and said in a deep voice:
"Prepare for negotiations."
"Negotiate?"
Ouyang Xiu'er was stunned, "Who to talk to? Go to Kyoto..."
Before she finished speaking, she immediately reacted.
"Is it with the polar bear?" After all, the polar bear holds thousands of kilograms of helium-3 in its hands, which Xingchen cannot give up.
"right!"
"That's them."
Chu Feng said: "I am ready to start a deal with them, but the conditions they proposed before are not enough. If they want to exchange our pioneers, it is far from enough!!"
joke.
How could a 'hen' that lays golden eggs be sold cheaply on just one production line?
Dreaming.
He wanted to make up for the losses he had suffered in Longguo.
This time, he had to bite off a piece of meat from Lao Maozi.
So Chu Feng said:
"Xiu'er."
"I'll tell you a few transaction conditions, please record them."
Next, with everyone dumbfounded, he quickly picked up a few necessary trading supplies, and finally explained:
"Hurry up and notify the negotiation team. As for other transaction terms, you can add them later."
"Anyway, there's no need to be polite to the bears this time. Just make sure they bite off a piece of each other's flesh."
"Also, these things I mentioned must be satisfied, and none of them are missing, otherwise they will not be replaced!!"
"Okay, I remember." Ouyang Xiuer nodded.
"etc."
Looking at Ouyang Xiuer who was about to call the bracelet, Chu Feng reminded:
"remember."
"Hurry!!"
"It's best to confirm it tonight and officially start the transaction tomorrow."
"I think……"
Chu Feng looked at some files played on the light screen in the hall, which were the intelligence information that everyone had seen before, and immediately said with cold eyes:
"I think the other party is also eager to finalize the deal tonight."
"you do not say."
While issuing mission instructions to the professional negotiation team of the City Lord's Mansion, Ouyang Xiuer said with a chuckle: "Countries have long been eager to see the pioneers of our base. Now that they have the opportunity, they are not overjoyed."
"that is……"
"Isn't your condition too extreme..."
Looking at the transaction list recorded in the bracelet, she couldn't help but be speechless.
It's too demanding.
If the lion opens his mouth like this, can the other party agree?
"Don't worry, they will definitely agree."
Chu Feng said.
At the same time, the Polar Bear Foreign Trade Department also received an official reply from Xingchen.
"minister."
"Considering the weather conditions and some possible obstacles, Xingchen has requested an online video negotiation meeting. There is no need to meet in person."
Suddenly, Minister Eva was delighted.
"good."
"Promise them."
She would be happy if the transaction contract could be finalized as soon as possible.
Subsequently, a negotiation meeting that kept many people awake was carried out quietly.
and.
Although there were occasional quarrels from time to time, in general, one was willing to fight and the other was willing to suffer. The speed of this negotiation meeting was simply staggering.
