Siheyuan: I am a trader in both worlds!

Chapter 207: 5000 Years Old, Fear of International Violence

You don’t need to look too closely, just search for the various exporting countries that China imported large quantities of various raw materials from in later generations, and you will find something very interesting and intriguing.

That is, except for a few things like soybeans, which are not too important, we import large quantities of them from the distant America.

Most of the other raw materials, especially those of strategic value, are imported in large quantities from countries that our navy can easily obtain.

such as
The rich mineral resources made Ximen Lang envious and he really wanted to say that Australia has been an inseparable part of us since ancient times.

Combined with the magical reality that Australia spent an extra $300 billion on defense each year in the past few years, this was to protect Australia's trade line with the domestic market from domestic threats.

Ximen Lang seemed to suddenly understand Australia's various contradictory and magical operations.

"But you don't love peace, you don't like..."

"It's true that we love peace, but that doesn't seem to conflict with our vigorous development of the navy. Who says that loving peace means we can't develop armaments? After all, we're only a few thousand years old. Is it okay for us to be afraid of international violence?"

"A young man over 5000 years old? Afraid of international violence?"

Bai Ling, who had not been exposed to the information explosion of later generations, really couldn't keep up with Ximen Lang's fast-paced thinking.

It is absolutely impossible to unite 5000 years old, young people, a super manufacturing power and the fear of international violence.

But she could still fully understand the general meaning.

So, it's just a complaint.
"A 5000-year-old young man? You're really young!"

Then he raised his hand to signal Ximen Lang to continue.

Thinking that Bai Ling was not an outsider, Ximen Lang finally took out some useful information.

"A Jiangnan shipyard can build an entire French navy in one go! And we have eight shipyards like this!"

"What's the concept here? This is about pinning everyone to the ground! Don't be fooled by the Americans who seem so arrogant. Wait a few years and you'll see!"

"What's the first island chain, the second island chain? My aircraft carrier battle group is right in your face. Try to blockade another one and see if you can't scare him to death!"

"Even the Americans, who have the strongest navy, remained silent. And a bunch of scumbags are trying to raise prices and even threaten us with extreme measures like cutting off supplies?"

"Do you really think the navy is just for show? We don't even need to deploy the navy. Just impose some sanctions here and there, and they'll come crying and begging us!"

"Not to mention, they are not irreplaceable."

Don't put all your eggs in one basket. This principle was understood by the ancients thousands of years ago. How could people in later generations not know it?
So, even if some guy with a crazy brain really goes crazy.

At the instigation of their American father, they would rather lose 1200 themselves than let future generations lose hundreds.

Then there is no need to be afraid of future generations!
Just like there are plenty of people who will do it if you don’t want to, if you don’t want to sell, there are also countless people who are eager to take your place, rushing to do business with future generations, and making a fortune by following behind them!

If Australia bans iron ore exports, then go to Brazil. The Middle East has no oil or natural gas, but we still have the Russians as our natural ally.

No matter how awesome you Americans are, you can't make everyone act like crazy with you, right?

Not to mention the various minerals in the country, which are no less than them!

"At worst, I can use the portion left for future generations in advance. Even if things don't work out, we can at least hold on for a while and maintain the current situation."

"But can those guys who make a living by exporting minerals also hold on and withstand the sanctions from a super manufacturing power?" "This is obviously unrealistic!"

As for taking more extreme measures, uniting to punish future generations.
"Believe me, even if that person is an American, or even the entire Western world, no one wants to face a completely enraged red-eyed rabbit."

The classic film clips of Dehua can't help but emerge in my mind
"You think you can scare me with a few punks? You can do it? You couldn't do it back then! Don't think I won't touch you just because I'm wearing a tie! I can still act like a gangster even if I take off my tie!"

Ximen Lang really felt that this situation and this scene were a perfect match.

Explain the situation to Bai Ling in detail.

Bai Ling couldn't help but look at him with envy at the confidence and pride that emanated from him.

Because she had witnessed the prosperity of future generations with her own eyes, the comparison between the two made Bai Ling feel a little inferior because of the difficult current situation of the world of Sijiu City.

Seeing that Bai Ling had lived in a broken country and suffered humiliation for the first half of her life, she was really lacking in self-confidence.

Ximen Lang explained.

"Come on, cheer up! Although we haven't been doing so well in the past hundred years, we have always been at the top of the world for thousands of years!"

"Saying that you can make the whole world tremble by stomping your feet might be a bit of an exaggeration. But making the whole of Asia tremble with it is no problem at all!"

"Which of those bastards around here hasn't been ravaged by us in various ways for thousands of years? This strength is unparalleled in the entire world!"

"He's been the boss for thousands of years. If it were my third brother, he would have been praised to the sky! Besides, don't I still have him?"

"With me here, we'll be able to catch up with them sooner or later, surpass them, and leave them far behind! Why are you still like a frost-bitten eggplant, completely listless!"

It must be said that these words did help Bai Ling a lot.

It allowed her to regain her confidence to move forward.

It just so happened that Bai Ling and Ximen Lang’s whispers had finally come to an end.

Lao Luo, who had been eavesdropping silently on the side for a long time, finally showed up.

One sentence.
"Just in time!"

Ximen Lang immediately went up to greet him with Bai Ling.

While looking at it, he realized that although it looked like a lot, it wasn't much at all. In the face of real commodity trading, there were piles of various minerals piled up like small mountains, which would not even be ranked.

On the other side, Ximen Lang shook his head and sighed.

"That won't work. Commodity trading is big because of the sheer volume! Units often start at millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of tons!"

"The result is just this little, what can we do with it? Even if the price is affordable, we can't make much money! So, hurry up, Lao Luo, find a way to increase the volume! Otherwise, this won't be enough!"

Knowing that this amount of goods was not enough to compete with Ximen Lang, Lao Luo naturally wanted to increase the mining efforts and transportation capacity to quickly complete the deal.

"But we don't have that much mining equipment, nor that much transportation capacity."

"No equipment? No transportation capacity? Is that a problem? Forget about it, leave it to me!"
