Tripoli port area, warehouse
After leaving the secret base, Wang Yue drove to the port area of Tripoli to check out the various materials that had been shipped from the country during this period. He had previously thought about storing the materials in the country and then returning to transport them himself. This would not only It saves on shipping costs and is more convenient. However, after actually doing it once, he found that it is very inconvenient. On the one hand, it is a waste of time. It takes more than a day to go back and forth. In addition, due to problems such as connecting flights and flights, it takes two days. It's gone. If you're unlucky and there's a firefight in Tripoli, you won't be able to come back for a week. Furthermore, the sudden disappearance of so many supplies was too shocking. The last time he returned to China, he almost frightened the old security guard in the reservoir area to death when he emptied a large amount of supplies in one night. According to Chen Xi, the drone from the Bureau of Land and Resources also discovered The disappearance of a thousand tractors in their parking lot overnight would have alerted the security department if Chen Xi had not had some energy.
Therefore, Wang Yue simply registered a foreign trade company in Binzhou, specializing in trade with Libya, and shipped all the ordered materials to Libya. Taking into account losses and freight, the cost increased by about 10%. If Including the tax refund, there is actually no increase. The only trouble is that he has no one to use in Libi, so he always has to trouble Tasha to help take care of it. Now, he has rented ten warehouses in this reservoir area and goes in and out every day. The supplies are tens of thousands of tons, so it’s really not appropriate to rely on Tasha anymore.
Therefore, Wang Yue asked Tasha to help him find a local agent, who would usually help him run to customs ports and look after warehouses. Although the customs in Libya were very chaotic, superficial procedures were still needed. After all, it involved Domestic tax issues.
The man Tasha helped introduce was named Ahmed. From then on, all the trade of Wang Yue's domestic company was connected with the Libyan company registered in the name of Ahmed, completely removing Wang Yue himself, and Wang Yue passed the divorce We control Ahmed's trading company through multiple cross-holdings of offshore companies to avoid risks to the greatest extent. This time we went to the city, on the one hand, we arranged Ahmed's work, and on the other hand, we had to sign several documents. , go through the final legal procedures.
"Boss, this is the latest warehousing record. All the materials sent by Miss Chen from China have arrived, but ten sets of oil refining equipment were shipped away by Miss Tasha one after another. Here is the record!" Pointing to the outgoing warehousing record, In front of Tasha, Ahmed reported to Wang Yue very seriously.
"Tasha, dear, what do you want those things for? It's not a high-tech product. Your weapons workshop can make it." Wang Yue was not surprised by Ahmed's behavior. This man is a man in Europe. Libby, who studied abroad and returned from overseas, has his own set of principles in doing things, otherwise he would not have chosen him. Wang Yue was curious as to why Tasha would be interested in the small oil refining equipment he ordered from China? In his opinion, the technical level of that thing was that of the early twentieth century, and there was no difficulty in processing it.
This was specially prepared by Wang Yue to solve the fuel crisis of the Eighth Route Army. After all, this time he gave someone a thousand tractors. If they were to use them all, the Eighth Route Army would not be able to afford them, so he entrusted Chen Xi to find a factory in Binzhou in advance. This simple set of oil extraction and refining equipment was designed. The entire equipment adds up to less than ten tons. When graded, each component is less than one ton. In this way, it can be divided into three units: drilling, oil production, and smelting. It can be said that rough manufacturing and simplicity have been brought to the extreme. The price of such a set of equipment is less than 150,000 yuan. Wang Yue ordered 100 sets at a time, thinking that he would take them all along this time, so that the scattered equipment in northern Shaanxi can be Desperate oil resources were exploited.
"Victor, you really underestimate that thing. Your set of equipment involves many industrial categories. Just like the two pressure vessels of less than one ton, it not only requires a hydraulic press of more than 5,000 tons, but also The use of advanced welders or high-precision welding robots, let alone my small workshop in Tripoli, cannot be made even in the current Libyan country, not to mention that the operation and maintenance of that set of equipment is extremely simple, especially suitable for backward areas. One day By processing dozens of tons of crude oil, the cost may be recouped within a week." Tasha curled her lips. She didn't take a fancy to Wang Yue's pile of scrap metal at first, but when a small tribe asked about small oil refining equipment, At that time, she was excited and threw a set over. Unexpectedly, she was surprised when it started working. This thing was so unbelievable - low investment, quick results, and high returns.
A few illiterate people from small tribes can operate it. They can set it up in a yard close to the oil field and easily process dozens of tons of crude oil a day. It is a low-cost artifact of getting rich. Later, under the strong request of customers, She took away ten sets from Wang Yue one after another. The sales were not too good. If Wang Yue came back a few days later, she would probably be able to sell the remaining ninety sets.
"Tasha, you can also let your domestic factories produce it. What's so difficult about this?" Wang Yue was still puzzled. Tasha was not someone who took advantage of him casually. The girl was very principled at certain times. , at least when it comes to his Wang Yue matters.
"Don't mention those guys. I found more than a dozen factories and none of them quoted less than one hundred thousand US dollars. One hundred thousand US dollars. They are crazy about money. If you give them one hundred thousand US dollars, what will I earn?" Tasha said angrily. He said that the country of Libya has been in civil war for more than ten years, and the people's livelihood in the country is in dire straits. Whether it is ordinary people or some small and medium-sized tribes, they are all extremely poor. Their consumption ability, oh, that is, the ability to buy arms is getting worse and worse. , this kind of equipment is equivalent to giving his customers the ability to form blood, so that when his customers are rich, they will naturally be able to buy arms. This is a healthy development, not only for the country of Libi, but in Tasha's plan, All the surrounding war-torn oil-producing countries are her targets.
"So, how much did you sell this thing for?" Wang Yue asked curiously.
"It's very cheap, a set of 100,000 US dollars, and I gave a few customers a one-week grace period for repayment." Tasha said aggrievedly.
"One hundred thousand dollars!" Wang Yue exclaimed.
"Victor, what's surprising? This is oil refining equipment. A complete set of oil refining equipment is the key to their industrial civilization. Libya's oil resources are now divided up by foreign capital. The local people urgently need this kind of equipment." Equipment that can break the monopoly." Tasha glanced at Wang Yue with disdain, an expression on her face as if she had never seen the world before.
"Tasha, you are a genius!" Wang Yue complimented, but he thought of the sentence "The countryside surrounds the city." Now that big warlords and foreign capital have carved up big cities and oil fields, small and medium-sized tribes and ordinary people want to break this The shackles are that we can only follow the People's War route of encircling the cities from the countryside. I'm afraid this girl has not studied in our country, and she is also having too much fun.
"Victor, to tell you the truth, I feel the same way. I have thought about it. I will give you fifty thousand dollars for every set sold in the future. We will make this business bigger and stronger together. As long as they have the money, Now, I can sell more weapons to them, oh, it's us, we're going to build an airplane together, don't worry, I didn't forget, I've already commissioned Mikoyan to design a prototype." Tasha said with longing.
"My dear, I will bear the cost." Wang Yue felt that Tasha seemed to have omitted a few things.
"Victor, as a billionaire, you have to be more generous to a beauty like me, right?" Tasha winked slyly.
"Okay, no problem, my princess, but I still have use for the ninety sets here. How many sets do you need, I will order them urgently for you." Wang Yue shook his head helplessly, there was no way, who let the channel be As for other people, if you make less money, just make less money. Anyway, this is how you make money.
"I want five hundred sets, and I'll send the money to you soon!" Tasha replied immediately, obviously she had already planned it.
"No problem!" Wang Yue responded with a smile. This girl is like a little fox. She is cute, beautiful, cunning, and kind. Almost everything can be reflected from her body.
"By the way, Victor, don't you need me to help you deal with some contraband this time?" Tasha was a little confused. Wang Yue had something to sell every time he saw her recently, but this time he didn't. No, it's not normal.
"Tasha, I was just looking for you. Do you still have 122mm artillery in your hand? I want to buy some more." Wang Yue put away his smile and said seriously. Since the Eighth Route Army cannot gain air supremacy in a short time, he plans to simply do more. Get some artillery and blow it up if you can.
"Yes, there are quite a few. It's just because of the war. The prices of various models of 122mm artillery have increased recently, ranging from 50% to 200%. Even old antiques like the D30 are no exception. Moreover, the government's review of exports is also very strict. Strictly, you know, the government is worried that these artillery pieces will go to places they shouldn't go." Tasha explained with some embarrassment.
"Are the older ones available? The prices won't increase, right?" Wang Yue asked relentlessly.
"The price of old antiques like the M-1938 122mm howitzer has not increased, but our company's warehouses are all in the western region. If you buy too much, the military guys will definitely ask about it. If you don't mind, that's fine." Tasha knew that Wang Yue's group was a little low-key and didn't want to attract other people's attention, so she said hello in advance.
"Tasha, a company as big as yours doesn't have a distribution center for supplies in the eastern region, right?" Wang Yue still refused to give up. If there were no heavy artillery, he would have to make do with his pile of junk.
"Yes, yes, but it has been so many years since the alliance disintegrated, and there are no decent military-industrial companies in the Far East, so the inventory is all dispensable junk. The company is planning to abandon those warehouses directly." Tasha wondered. , the alliance left too much property back then, and they used various means to embezzle a lot of it. It was impossible for all of it to be advanced equipment, and there would always be some rags left in their hands.
"Are there 122mm artillery?" Wang Yue asked eagerly.
