Chapter 60: Net Profit From Crude Oil Imports: 20 Billion/Year [Fourth Update]
"..."
The expert group from the Great Camel Kingdom whispered a few words in the ear of their own prince.
"Dear Deputy Minister Li, and everyone, thank you for finding the national treasure for our country!"
The prince of the Great Camel Kingdom spoke very skillfully. He first determined the ownership of the batch of things, and finally defined it as a national treasure: "After our experts confirmed, it has been confirmed that it belongs to our 6th century royal family."
Although they came in a hurry this time, they received advance notice from the diplomatic office and were well prepared.
An ancient book that was also an antique and looked quite old was taken out. There was a staff member to help. When they turned to a certain page, there was an illustration that was exactly the same as the scepter, which was the most powerful evidence.
"Our experts and scholars have the same judgment."
Deputy Minister Li said with a smile, but did not take credit for it. He smiled and said, "We should thank Mr. Zhang. It was Mr. Zhang who went fishing and accidentally caught it online, so that such a precious thing could see the light of day again."
"Thank you, Mr. Zhang!"
The prince was very enthusiastic and hugged Zhang Heng, saying, "Thank you so much. On behalf of the royal family of the Great Camel Kingdom, I express my highest respect to you, my Bro!"
Even calling him brother was indeed too happy, although he did not really recognize Zhang Heng as a brother.
Naturally, they are the Great Camel Kingdom after all, and it is impossible to just thank him verbally. There must be something substantial, otherwise it will not be in line with their rich style.
"Before coming here, I have obtained authorization from our king to grant Mr. Zhang the title of our honorary citizen. Mr. Zhang will receive the warmest reception when he comes to our Camel Country in the future."
It is not awkward for His Royal Highness to switch titles back and forth. Some titles need to be formal, so the titles have to be changed: "My Bro, I will personally give 1 billion US dollars to..."
"Your Highness!"
Originally, the head of the Camel's domestic office did not want to show his presence, but this time he couldn't. Regardless of politeness, after interrupting, he also whispered a few words.
"Oh...it turns out that Brother Zhang is engaged in the mineral resources trade industry."
His Royal Highness is proficient in Mandarin and speaks it fluently. After thinking for a moment, he changed his mind: "If you are interested in trading in crude oil, I can make the decision and give it to you at a price 10% lower than the market price."
It is completely within his authority.
Don't underestimate this 10%. It doesn't look like much on the surface, but once the number increases, it will be an astronomical figure.
But for the Great Camel Country, it is not a big deal, because what they lack the most is oil. How much crude oil can Zhang Heng, a person and a company, consume in a year?
As for Zhang Heng's large-scale purchases with the two domestic oil companies, the terrifying amount consumed is too ugly. I think the higher authorities will not allow such a thing to happen, because the two oil companies are state-owned enterprises and represent the face of the country.
Sometimes, face cannot be measured by money.
"Thank you very much, Your Highness!" Zhang Heng did not refuse, and accepted it cheerfully.
Originally, with the humble style of the domestic people, he should have refused, but he didn't see what kind of occasion this was. It was also a semi-diplomatic occasion. People also gave it to each other in person, which was part of etiquette. It would be bad to refuse.
In addition, the habit of the rich country to save face, your refusal is equivalent to hitting the other party in the face.
"Bro... that scepter is very important to our royal family. It is a priceless treasure!"
His Royal Highness said solemnly, and after a pause, he said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "That is, our country does not have a system of conferring titles. If there is, just because you helped us find this scepter, it would be enough to confer a very high title."
"Hahaha... it was originally your country's thing."
Zhang Heng naturally responded politely, showing the humility of the Chinese people: "I am just returning it to its original owner!"
"Anyway, I would like to thank you on behalf of our royal family!"
His Royal Highness thanked him again.
So far!
The overall handover has come to an end for the time being, but it has not really ended. There will be a grand public handover ceremony later.
It's just that Zhang Heng chose not to attend.
Low-key is the kingly way. Will there be a large number of media present?
If he attends, he will also be one of the two main characters, that is, to steal the limelight of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. In addition, he has already got what he wants, and the rest should belong to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Although he was not present, he still came to the scene. The difference was that he chose a corner to stand and quietly watched the excitement.
It was not until the evening that it really ended.
Zhang Heng did not stay for long. He booked a flight in advance and took off at 8 o'clock in the evening to return to Chaojie City.
"In the future, the source of crude oil can be explained. The rest is the source of various minerals. This problem also needs to be solved as soon as possible!"
Zhang Heng muttered to himself in his heart. He had spent so much effort for this.
