"Hehe...Young Long, it's been over a year since we last met, hasn't it? Come visit the mainland more often; we need talents like you here." Old Wang stepped forward, patted Long Zu on the shoulder, and said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, the Dragon Ancestor nodded solemnly.
"Yes, it's been a long time since I've seen Old Wang. He's still in such good health."
Faced with such a figure, the Dragon Ancestor dared not show the slightest disrespect.
These people are the pillars of the nation, the true backbone of the country.
Every elderly person with outstanding achievements deserves to be treated this way.
"Sigh... You've really accomplished something big this time. No wonder you were able to rise from humble beginnings to achieve such great success," Old Wang said with some emotion.
In his view, Long Zu's current wealth already ranks him among the top five super-rich in the country.
Furthermore, they were willing to invest in factories and improve welfare to contribute to domestic development.
Unlike those self-proclaimed philanthropists who donate to reduce taxes, seemingly patriotic but actually heartless and ungrateful.
The Dragon Ancestor smiled and nodded slightly.
Old Wang was laughing for a while, then suddenly became serious, his gaze towards the Dragon Ancestor becoming extremely heavy.
"Young man, tell me honestly, how much of this is true? I know you don't talk nonsense; you must have some knowledge of the oil field to say this. I mean, the scale, the location..."
now.
The Dragon Ancestor couldn't help but feel an inexplicable pressure, and his brows furrowed.
He glanced at the old man in front of him with surprise, and couldn't help but feel uneasy.
Could this be the aura of a general who has fought his way through the battlefield?
Most people would probably have been intimidated.
can.
The Dragon Ancestor had seen his share of great storms, and although he was terrified, he remained calm and composed.
"Don't worry, Elder Wang, I'm a businessman, and I wouldn't joke around like that," Long Zu said calmly.
Hear this.
Old Wang shook his head and said helplessly, "It's not that we're being overly cautious. If such a large oil field were developed, it would be a huge fortune. While it might not be as immense as the one in Zhongdong, it could still help the country develop rapidly..."
"But we also have our concerns. The major creditor of Equatorial Country was previously supported by the United States. If they find out about the mining process, it will be very troublesome..."
The Dragon Ancestor also deeply agreed with these words.
Wasn't that why he temporarily abandoned mining?
otherwise……
It's highly likely that the Dragon Ancestor will build his own power base, create his own tools, and come to power on his own.
They basically won't leak this information; they'll keep quiet and make a fortune.
however.
No one in this world can ignore the United States.
The domineering and powerful nature of the United States, as exemplified by the "2.6th" version of the American Empire, is deeply ingrained in people's minds.
“That’s right, Elder Wang, I understand your concerns, but I am also willing to cooperate with the country!” Long Zu said calmly.
He firmly believes that as long as sufficient resources are provided to the country.
If we want to catch up with John Bull, wouldn't it be a piece of cake to surpass the United States?
only……
Rabbits are somewhat conservative, or perhaps too morally upright, and rarely venture out to compete for resources.
Chapter 442 Gaining Both Fame and Fortune
That's why development has become somewhat saturated.
Rao is so.
In just 44 years, it has achieved the development process that took the United States 150 years.
It is clear that China's potential is by no means weak.
“Young Dragon… if everyone isn’t going to cooperate with you this time, would you choose to cooperate with the US… or the Russians?” Old Wang asked suddenly, looking at Dragon Ancestor’s expression.
"uncertain!"
"First, I will keep these oil fields well hidden. If I can lull the people in the vicinity into a false sense of security within three years and quietly make that territory completely private, I will take it over by myself. If not... I will choose to cooperate with the United States." The Dragon Ancestor answered directly without the slightest hesitation.
In fact, he has no intention of cooperating with the United States.
however.
That was based on the premise that the Rabbit Kingdom was unwilling to trust him or take the risks to cooperate with him, and that the Dragon Ancestor was not capable of excavation, or that the risks and rewards were disproportionate.
That's why they do that.
Unless absolutely necessary.
Dragon Ancestor still preferred to take control of the oil field himself, or perhaps the Rabbit Kingdom.
In the Equatorial Kingdom, although Dragon Ancestor was powerful, his foundation was shallow.
Should we confront the US head-on?
Whether in terms of Black State or overall strength, it's undoubtedly a case of an egg hitting a rock.
Given that certain death was inevitable, the Dragon Ancestor would not give up such a large piece of the pie and suffer a loss.
Hear the words.
Old Wang nodded silently.
If they refuse the Dragon Ancestor, they will inevitably have to consider other partners.
This is normal human nature and there's nothing wrong with it.
Who can say more bad things about the Dragon Ancestor?
After all, the Dragon Ancestor did have an arms deal with the Rabbit, and he was also an honorary lieutenant general.
Their position on the rabbit's side is also extremely secure.
and also……
The Russian bear and the American eagle are the most powerful nations at their peak.
The Dragon Ancestor would inevitably have to choose one to cooperate with, and cooperating with the Rabbit would involve considerable risks.
When two tigers fight, the monkey benefits?
Do not!
The most rational tiger would only choose to join forces to kill the monkey first, or for the monkey to voluntarily withdraw.
The world is bustling with activity, all driven by the pursuit of profit.
He had no objection to the Dragon Ancestor's choice.
"Young man, we've agreed to this collaboration. As for the details, you don't need to worry about them; someone will come to you when the time comes."
"However... we need to take 70% of the profits, and you can have the other 30%, plus you will have the right to use half of the spare resources."
Old Wang said solemnly.
"Alright, I'm very satisfied with this income." Dragon Ancestor nodded with a smile, without saying anything more.
Thirty percent?
It seems like a small amount, and this oil field belongs to him.
However, the Dragon Ancestor understood that if the rabbit did not cooperate with him, he would not be able to gain even 30%.
If we cooperate with the United States, they're already being generous by giving us 90% of the profits; they'll likely just give us a small portion, around 980 points.
That kind of country has no credibility whatsoever.
It's all capitalists manipulating the market. What credibility do those people have?
Even if I can get 30%, that's the limit that China can offer.
because……
There's no longer any need for the Dragon Ancestor to take responsibility or risk this matter.
All you have to do is sit there and collect the money.
Human resources, material resources, and risks will all be borne by the Rabbit Country.
Therefore, what else could he possibly be dissatisfied with?
If we don't cooperate, or if we cooperate with other powerful countries, we may not get much.
Only in this way can he gain both fame and fortune.
After all, this is quite a significant achievement.
