MTL - Reborn Capital Tycoon-Chapter 40 going to war

  Chapter 40 is going to war

  At night, Chen Yi and the others did not go out to look for a house to live in, because the factory had a place to live, a room transformed from a warehouse of more than ten square meters, with beds, quilts and other daily necessities readily available.

  The room used to be for the employees who watched the factory at night. In such a large factory, all the machinery and equipment are inside. If no one is watching at night, if a thief is recruited, it will not be too bad.

  With a place to live, Chen Yi is unwilling to spend money to live outside. The environment of the small broken hotel is really not good. As for better ones, there are many Xiangjiang hotels, but there is no need for that, it is too wasteful of money.

   A few people tidied up, and the whole room finally looked good.

  Before, everyone only stayed for one night, so in terms of hygiene, although it is not said that it is too dirty to live in, it is not much better.

  Chen Yi was not used to other people's things, so he asked Haozi to buy two quilts and daily necessities. As for Chen's father and Chen's mother going to rent a house tomorrow, or rebuild a warehouse, everything will be discussed tomorrow.

  After the house was tidied up, Wu Shirong also went home with his quilt in his arms, ready to go back and warm up the bed with his wife.

   "Brother Yi, do you want to burn your feet?" Haozi walked in with a hot water bottle.

   "Yes, I'll go get some cold water and wash my face first." Chen Yi jumped up from the bed, went out with a basin and brought in a half basin of cold water.

   "Huh..." Putting the hot towel on his face, Chen Yi felt his whole body relaxed, and his fatigue from the day also eased a lot.

  After washing his face, Chen Yi poured half a pot of hot water into the basin, took the basin and walked to his bed, sat on the bed and soaked his feet comfortably.

  Seeing that Haozi was also preparing to soak his feet, Mingzai, who was playing with Rubik's Cube, hurriedly said, "Haozi, bring it here, I want to soak my feet too."

   "Are you sure?" Haozi blinked and said.

   "What nonsense?" Ming Tsai said impatiently.

  However, within a minute, Ming Tsai regretted it.

   "I'll go, Haozi, you stepped on shit, your feet smell so bad."

   "It's you who said you want to soak your feet. If you don't soak your feet, you will fall down."

  He ran with Wu Shirong's cousin all afternoon this afternoon. Although the employees of Dafeng Toy Factory live in Shau Kei Wan, they don't live in the same place.

  The more than one hundred employees, even if they don’t have to run one by one, are still very tired. It’s no wonder that their feet don’t stink after walking all afternoon.

   Ignoring the bickering between the two, Chen Yi was reading a newspaper with great interest.

   In 1973, the biggest international event was the fourth Middle East war. The oil crisis triggered by the fourth Middle East war caused a global economic downturn and had a great impact on the world economy.

   Among them, Europe and the United States are the most affected.

  During the period from 1950 to 1973, the world's crude oil prices were kept artificially low by the seven major companies, with an average of about US$1.8 per barrel, only about half of the price of coal.

  After the struggle of OPEC, it was not until early 1973 that it rose to $2.90 a barrel.

  Due to the artificially low price of crude oil, the oil-producing countries in the Middle East are very dissatisfied with the old capitalist oil system.

  Especially with the recovery of the post-war economy, the demand and dependence on oil in European and American countries have increased sharply, which has made the oil-producing countries lose their last patience for the original price to remain unchanged.

  The two sides refused to make concessions to each other, and the contradiction between oil importing countries such as Europe and the United States and the oil production in the Arab region has become increasingly acute, and there is a tendency of swords being drawn.

  As a person who has read countless Xiangjiang articles, Chen Yi naturally knows what the oil crisis means. It means that the reborn will get a chance to open the golden finger, which is commonly known as a shotgun change.

  The oil crisis was a deliberate plan by the oil-producing countries in the Arab region, and almost all the oil-producing countries in the Arab region participated in this operation.

  In the fourth Middle East war, Arab countries initiated an oil embargo on the grounds that Western countries supported Israel and sheltered Israel.

The price of oil has risen from US$3 per barrel to US$11 per barrel, which has increased by three or four times in one or two months. The increase in oil prices has increased the international balance of payments deficit of major Western countries, and finally triggered the 1973 to 2007 crisis. The world economic crisis in 1975.

  Chen Yi is not interested in the economic crisis or not. What he is interested in is the three or four times increase in the price of oil, and how much money he can make from it.

  Thinking that the fourth Middle East war will be resolved in October, there is still a few days before now. In a few months, I must save a sum of money anyway, so that I can try the feeling of changing the shotgun.

  Let’s not talk about other things, just complete the small goal of our richest man first. The gold content of billionaires these days is completely incomparable to future generations.

  Billionaires have a high gold content. A few years later, the well-known charter king, relying on the 2 billion funds provided by HSBC, forcibly seized Wharf and abandoned the ship to dock, becoming the first Chinese businessman at that time.

   From that, it can be seen how valuable 100 million is worth this year.

  Chen Tian, ​​who had just returned from taking a shower outside, saw his second brother reading the newspaper with great interest, and couldn't help asking curiously: "Xiao Yi, what are you reading?"

   "A war is about to begin," Chen Yi said casually.

   "Was there a war?" Chen Tian was taken aback when he heard the words, and couldn't help asking: "Where is the war?"

   "Sigh..." Chen Yi handed the newspaper in his hand to his elder brother, feeling that the water temperature had dropped, so he didn't intend to continue soaking.

  Chen Tian held the newspaper, and when he saw the entire article in English, he was dumbfounded and speechless, "What is it written in? It's all in English, who can understand it."

  Chen Yi saw that his elder brother was depressed, and ignored him.

  For those people in the Middle East, especially Egypt, Chen Yi didn't know what to say. He dared to mess with polar bears, so he really didn't know how to write dead.

   Regarding the situation in the Middle East, the United States and the Soviet Union, which are in a state of cold war, both hope to resolve the conflicts between the two sides in a peaceful manner.

  The Soviet Union hoped to avoid conflicts between Arabs and Israel at all costs, so as to avoid further confrontation with the United States, but Egypt, as the younger brother, not only did not accept the Soviet Union's proposal, but was prepared to use war to resolve the conflicts it had seen with Israel.

Since Egypt was worried that its intention to prepare for war would be detected by the Soviet Union, it has been expelling the Soviet military advisory group staying in Egypt since last year. Since July last year, Egypt has expelled more than 10,000 Soviet military advisers, almost The Soviets were expelled.

  If only this is the case, the funniest thing is that Egypt has moved closer to the United States, which supports Israel, in terms of foreign policy.

   This wave of godly operations is really incomprehensible to people, and I don’t know whether the Arab countries are really stupid or just pretending to be stupid, so they have made efforts to support Egypt.

   Shoot the first bird, if you don't die, you won't die.

   But at the same time, it also proves that the brothers are indeed used to cheat sometimes, sacrificing an Egypt to benefit other oil-producing countries in the Middle East. This wave of operations is not a loss.
