Three days later, accompanied by Chris and the other four, Yang Jing boarded the plane passing through Almaty from Yanjing and then arrived in Baku.

After Yang Jing walked out of the gate of the Geidal Aliyev International Airport to the east of Baku city, Guo Dabao and several people were waiting outside.

"Haha, I finally hope you for a long time." I haven't met for a long time. As soon as I met, Guo Dabao naturally gave Yang Jing a big hug.

"Oh, Uncle Guo, your belly is much smaller, and your weight will be reduced by at least twenty kilograms, right? This is a good thing, and it is worth your continued persistence for a long time." Yang Jing joked with a smile.

"Oh, hey, it's not enough to lose weight. Xiao Xiang has successfully lost weight now. As his son, if he doesn't lose weight, my status at home will be even lower. How can I be a role model for my son?"

The two of them were talking while walking out. On the side of the road outside the terminal, four Mercedes-Benz Gs and an extended bulletproof Mercedes-Benz were parked. Yang Jing was used to this scene and followed Guo Dabao to the extended Mercedes-Benz.

"Uncle Guo, is Xiao Xiang okay in PNG? We talked about WeChat some time ago, and this guy posted a photo for me. Why is he a foreign woman? Do you know this?"

"This bastard, when I go to Papua New Zealand, I have to knock all three legs! I actually found a New Zealand ocean horse. He was not afraid that his grandfather would crawl out of the coffin and knock him to death!"

Yang Jing didn't dare to say this, is there anyone who is so daddy? If Guo Xiaoxiang heard this, he would have to murmured that he was given free of charge by his dad back then...

However, Yang Jing could see that the fat man seemed to have fallen into this time. Not to mention, the New Zealand girl in the photo he posted was really good-looking, and she is the fat man's favorite type with a hot body.

For the future of his friend, Yang Jing decided to say a few good things to his friend.

"Uncle Guo, I actually think that girl is not bad. Xiaoxiang and I have lived together in the UK for two years. I am quite familiar with his mate selection standards. When I was in London, there were many British girls who wanted to make friends with Xiaoxiang, but Xiaoxiang didn't even look down on her. Since Xiaoxiang fell in love with that girl this time, it means that there must be something attractive to Xiaoxiang. So, I think you should not make a decision so arbitrary. I think you should contact that girl and not beat her to death with one stick. Besides, Xiaoxiang is your son, so why do you have to think about your son?

"What do you think?" Guo Dabao stumbled on his neck, "Actually, this matter is nothing to do with me. Your Aunt Zhao disagrees with you. You know that your Aunt Zhao is a university professor and teaches Chinese, so she cares a lot about this. According to your Aunt Zhao's idea, you must find Xiao Xiang a Chinese girl with a strong root."

As he said that, Guo Dabao shook his head, "It doesn't matter. If your son really finds a foreign wife, he will definitely be a beautiful mixed-race child. I like beautiful children the most. Moreover, I have been developing abroad over the years, so I have no objection to having a foreign daughter-in-law. The key is your Aunt Zhao! Your Aunt Zhao doesn't agree, of course I must firmly stand on my wife's side. No matter how important your son is, can you have a wife? So, in order not to make your Aunt Zhao anxious, I'd better be this evil person in the middle!"

Tsk tsk, what you mean is a typical model husband and a crazy wife-loving maniac!

But although my buddy knows that you, Guo Dabao, love your wife very much, there is no need to show off like this in front of my buddy!

OK, you are an elder, so we won’t care about you anymore. Anyway, Guo Xiaoxiang is your son, so you should worry about this pot of scattered porridge-like housework. I won’t get involved!

So Yang Jing changed the subject simply.

"Uncle Guo, why do you remember to acquire the old oil well from Baku?"

Guo Dabao was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Do you think I am willing to purchase these old oil wells with a history of more than 100 years? Isn't it that the above wants to make a layout? Besides, your ancestral qi-eye technique is now very famous at the top of the house, so the above also wants to see if you can find old oil wells that can be re-produced in Baku. Once the old oil field can be re-opened here, we will gain a firm foothold even in the east and west of the Caspian Sea."

Yang Jing nodded silently. The oil and gas resources around Central Asia and the Caspian Sea are very important to China. China lacks oil and gas resources, which is well known. Therefore, China has been planning to deploy in Central Asia over the years, and also in the northern territory of Maoxiong. This is related to China's future energy issues and an important strategic plan for the country.

Now the relationship between China and the five Central Asian countries is very good, and the Central Asian oil and gas pipeline was built and completed six years ago. But before new energy can completely replace oil and gas resources, oil and gas resources around Central Asia and the Caspian Sea are still top priority for China.

Guo Dabao looked at the scenery that kept flashing outside the window and continued: "In order to obtain Central Asia's oil and gas resources, the Central Asia natural gas pipeline built by my country has invested heavily in July 2008. The construction was organized by Huaxia Petroleum and Central Asia Natural Gas Pipeline Company. The pipeline passes through the four countries of Turkish, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, and China. Among them, the Kazakhstan section pipeline starts from the border between Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan in the west, reaches Horgos in our east, and is connected to the West-East Gas Pipeline.

The line is connected, and the total length of a single line in Kazakhstan is about 1,300 kilometers. Six years ago, on September 9, 2013, the second phase of the Central Asia Natural Gas Pipeline was completed and ventilated. The starting point of the second phase of the pipeline is located in Beinieu, Mangestao Prefecture, the Caspian region of Kazakhstan, passing through Bazoe in Akjiu Pennsylvania, and the end point is in Chimkent, South Kazakhstan. It is connected to the first phase of the Central Asia Natural Gas Pipeline. The total length of the line is 1,454 kilometers."

"There are oil and gas pipelines from Beinieu, which continues to go west to Aktau, 360 kilometers away. Aktau is located on the east coast of the Caspian Sea, while Baku is located on the west coast of the Caspian Sea. The straight-line distance between the two is only 360 kilometers. Therefore, once new oil and gas resources can be found in Baku, we can transport the exploited oil and gas resources directly to Aktau through oil tankers or natural gas transport ships, and then directly transport them to our country through the oil and gas pipelines there."

After a pause, Guo Dabao continued: "If there are enough oil and gas resources found in Baku, the country would not even mind building a submarine oil and gas pipeline on the Caspian Sea to connect Baku and Ak."

Yang Jing stuck out his tongue when he heard this. The country's investment and attention to oil and gas resources is indeed extremely powerful.

The crude oil pipeline between China and Russia has been completed and transported oil, but the negotiations with Russia alone have lasted for fifteen years, and China has to borrow $25 billion in long-term loans from Russia!

This crude oil pipeline is the first crude oil pipeline in China that enters from abroad. However, no matter what, with the completion of this crude oil pipeline, Russia can not only transport 15 million tons of crude oil to China every year, but also make Russia the third largest oil supplier in China after Saudi Arabia and Angola.

But 15 million tons per year, or about 300,000 barrels of crude oil imports per day, is obviously just a drizzle compared to China's annual crude oil consumption of up to 600 million tons and 400 million tons of crude oil imports per year. Therefore, in terms of developing crude oil import channels to the outside world, the country has been spared no effort.

Including the purchase of old oil wells from Baku this time, it is obviously a national attempt.

Yang Jing also knew that with the renewed large-scale oil production in the Beaumont Oilfield in the United States and the Oham Oilfield in Algeria, his "ancestral secret technique" of finding oil has become very famous in the high-level industries, which is why the country supports it so much.

The country lacks oil, and he can find oil. If the two are in harmony, there will be two benefits and two harms. In addition, he is also very patriotic, so the country will certainly not take action against him. Moreover, Rongbao Mining's shares are as high as 40%, which also proves the sincerity of the country.

The oil and gas field area near Baku is one of the most famous oil and gas field areas in the world. Although the oil and gas field resources here have been completely mined, the old oil wells that others cannot do anything about are treasures for Yang Jing.

I guess the country has guessed something, so it decisively started to make arrangements in Baku. Even Yang Jing was thinking that once Baku can successfully make arrangements, should we lay the crude oil pipeline directly to Iran?

You should know that Iran is also one of China's important crude oil suppliers. Even before the Iran nuclear agreement came into effect in January 2016, when Iran was still under sanctions, China still regularly purchased oil from Iran. In 2014, China imported an average of 420,000 barrels of crude oil from Iran every day, and then in 2015 it was 481,000 barrels per day. Although China reduced the import of oil from Iran last year, this year when the US decision approached, China purchased more Iranian oil. In March 2018, Iran delivered 766,000 barrels of crude oil to China every day, and nearly 700,000 barrels per day in April.

In June 2018, the US Twitter president issued an ultimatum, saying that all countries, including allies, stopped importing oil from Iran by November 4, otherwise they would face U.S. sanctions. This time the United States will not grant any national exemption.

Such awesome "one-size-fits-all" policy naturally aroused dissatisfaction among the international community. Many European countries that have oil and gas business with Iran are very disgusted with the domineering behavior of the Twitter president. As for China, it is even more of a threatening ultimatum.

At that time, a spokesperson for the Chinese Foreign Ministry said a very pleasant and generous sentence in an interview with reporters: "I saw the relevant reports, but is this the official position of the US government? You can only verify from the US side. The US side's position cannot interfere with China's position! Moreover, China and Iran are friendly countries. The two sides maintain normal exchanges and cooperation within the framework of complying with their respective international legal obligations, including cooperation in the fields of economy, trade and energy. This is beyond refutation."

The implication is very obvious. You can say whatever the United States wants, but the United States doesn’t care who I buy crude oil from?

Through this incident last year, we can see China's attitude. As the world's second largest economy and the fastest developing country in the world, China has the confidence to say this.

So, can it be seen as a prelude to China's preparation to lay oil pipelines to Iran in Baku, which is only more than 200 kilometers away from Iran?

Yang Jing hopes that his motherland can really lay crude oil pipelines to Iran!
Chapter completed!
