C541 Negotiation



C541 Negotiation

It had to be said that Central Plane was very determined. Even though Lee Mengyao's conditions were harsh, Central Plains had completely agreed to it.    

    

"The second point is about transportation. In order to reduce the trouble, we hope that the central government can build oil and gas pipelines covering all the provinces of the country!" Lee Mengyao continued. A large part of the so called oil costs were transportation costs, and if a pipeline that covered the entire country was built, the cost would be compressed.    

    

However, the pipeline transportation had been invested heavily in the early stages. The reason why Lee Mengyao asked the government to be responsible for the construction of the pipeline was also because she wanted to save on expenses.    

    

"Some provincial and municipal pipelines have been built, and we have been doing this for years. "As for the rest, as long as the funds are in place, it will be completed within three years. It will be able to cover at least all the major cities in the country!" Mu Tianrui said.    

    

In the last few years, the number of large national projects that had originally been built could not be counted.    

    

As a powerful country at that time, there was no doubt that the Central Plains was able to gather all of its forces and build a great epic project at its construction level.    

    

"The last point is the price of the oil and gas!" Lee Mengyao talked about the core issue, "Because we are synthesizing oil and gas, not collecting natural oil and gas resources, the cost is much higher than normal oil and gas mining costs. If the central government decides to purchase oil and gas from us, the price will be 30 percent higher than the international price! "    

    

Lee Mengyao's negotiating skills had now been revealed. In the past year, all of the island's major matters had been resolved by Lee Mengyao relying on her sharp tongue.    

    

The ability he had trained in the island countries had been fully demonstrated this time.    

    

"Thirty percent!" Mu Tianrui fell silent and began to carefully calculate the gains and losses.    

    

First of all, the Central Plains must have its own oil and gas resources. No matter the price, they must have these resources in their own hands.    

    

Based on this point of view, Mu Tianrui didn't have the qualifications to refuse.    

    

Second, while OPEC guys are willing to sell oil, shortcuts are common.    

    

After all, this is the only shop in the monopoly industry. You think I'm short on cash, but I don't have it anywhere else, so I don't want to buy it.    

    

Moreover, oil exports have political significance most of the time. Take the blockade of the Central Plains two years ago.    

    

On the other hand, Lu Fanfeng's goal was very pure, and he only wanted money, and did not mention the other conditions.    

    

"I can agree to any of these conditions!" Mu Tianrui readily agreed.    

    

In the eyes of those truly at the pinnacle of power, money was just a matter of the printing press opening a little more.    

    

Using a pile of scrap paper to exchange for the oil that the Central Plains needed, no matter how one looked at it, was a huge profit.    

    

"In addition, oil and gas resources are related to the foundation of the country, so we cannot afford to be careless. So, around our oil and gas companies, we need to deploy heavy soldiers for defense! " Lee Mengyao continued.    

    

"Heavy soldier!" This time, Mu Tianrui also hesitated.    

    

Although Lee Mengyao did not say it clearly, everyone knew that this army had to obey their leadership. In other words, Lu Fanfeng was the highest commander of this troop.    

    

Previously, Lu Fanfeng had already controlled Phoenix-cry Wing, to the extent of close to twenty thousand.    

    

After the Tokyo War, the armies of the Central Plains settled in the island countries and Lu Fanfeng became the commander in chief of the island countries of the Central Plains. As time passed, the island's army had now exceeded a hundred thousand, and all of them were under Lu Fanfeng's command.    

    

This time, the number of troops that protected the oil and gas companies would not be small, if Lu Fanfeng became the commander, even Central Palace would not agree.    

    

"Master Lu, the central government places great importance on you. In just a few short years, you have already become a general of the Central Plains, and a great subject. "Now that you have raised these conditions again, I'm afraid …" Mu Tianrui said helplessly.    

    

"What? Fan Feng is already a lieutenant general?" Only now did Lu Yougui know that Lu Fanfeng still had this identity.    

    

"That's right, I'm a general in the army!" Lu Fanfeng nodded slightly, completely ignoring Mu Tianrui.    

    

After all, the center of gravity was still the center of gravity, and one still could not completely trust Lu Fanfeng.    

    

However, it was different from the Central Plains. Right now, the island nation was asking for Lu Fanfeng's help.    

    

"Master Lu, our island government has decided to establish the Island National Defence Force. You will be the commander in chief of the National Defence Force and will be a general!" Furui Kikugi immediately said.    

    

Currently, the entire island nation was controlled by Lu Fanfeng. It was not strange that Furui Kikugi was able to make such a decision.    

    

However, upon hearing that, Lu Youcai immediately became anxious, "Son, how can you be an official for the little Japanese? Isn't that the same as being a traitor?"    

    

"Chinese scoundrels and lackeys, they are all under the command of foreigners. Who has ever seen a Chinese scoundrel in the upper echelons of a country!" Lu Fanyu hurriedly explained.    

    

After all, Lu Youcai was just an old farmer, and the limitations of his thinking could not be solved within a short period of time.    

    

Not to mention how Lu Youwei complained, Lu Fanfeng had already made up his mind.    

    

"I don't have any conflict of interest with the center. I don't care about what the center wants. And what I want, the center doesn't care. I risked my life and risked my life for the Tokyo War, but in the end, I never forgot the central hub for my interests. If I can suppress the island and bow down, can't I open up a new territory for the central continent? " Lu Fanfeng said in a deep voice. Compared to the rewards, the things Lu Fanfeng wanted were insignificant.    

    

"Our strategy is not just for one island nation. We hope the Central Region can understand that there are more than 200 countries and territories in the world!" Lee Mengyao reminded.    

    

"Master Lu, please give me ten minutes!" Although he was the envoy of the central government and was able to negotiate for the central government, he was unable to make a decision on this sort of issue.    

    

After hurriedly making a call to the central command, they communicated with each other before Mu Tianrui returned.    

    

"Master Lu, I am truly envious of the importance that the central government places on you!" Even Mu Tianrui could not help but sigh. There had never been a person who had received such recognition from the Central Army. "Central Government decides to place the forty-seventh Army in the Jinxi Province and appoint the Master Lu as the forty-seventh Army Commander!"    

    

Lu Fanfeng nodded slightly. Seems like Central Plains still trusted him.    

    

"At the same time, the central government has agreed to allow you to expand your own army, but the new personnel will need you to be responsible for the military expenditures, Master Lu!" Mu Tianrui said.    

    

"Self-augmentation!"    

    

Once he said this, everyone was shocked again.    

    

The fact that Lu Fanfeng had the right to even expand his army was something rarely seen in the history of the Central Plains.    

    

In the last years of the Western Zhou Dynasty, there were five tyrants chasing the deer, and then there were the seven heirs, all because Zhou Tianzi had allowed the marquis to recruit troops on his own.    

    

From then on, all dynasties took it for granted that they were able to firmly control the army in their own hands.    

    

It was because of this that the Central Plains had been able to form such a strong cohesive force. Step by step, they had come to this day.    

    

And this time, the Center once again gave Lu Fanfeng the authority to do so. It could be seen how much trust he had in Lu Fanfeng.
