Romanian Eagle

The breath of early spring is spreading in the Caucasus, and people are relieved from the wind and snow in winter.

From 1813, Russia and Persia signed the Treaty of Gulistan, which formally incorporated the Caucasus, including Baku, into the country. Since then, this place has become an inherent territory of Russia, and since an oil well was dug in 1871, Baku has always been the base of Russia's oil industry.

Before Romanian oil was exploited on a large scale, Baku's oil once accounted for more than 80% of Europe's supply. Even after Romanian, Persian and American oil flooded into Europe to squeeze market share, Russia still holds the largest share of the European oil market with its Baku field. It's just that now faced with the closure of the Black Sea Strait, what has left Baku is that the oil has lost those foreign buyers with deep pockets, and now it is depressed.

Inside the Baku Oil Company, the general manager Alexander Tikov sat in his luxurious office. The chairs made of Italian lambskin and mahogany did not ease his emotions in the slightest. His face was as cloudy as the weather in Baku now, all from the company's annual report he saw. Last year, the Baku Oil Company lost money, and an oil company lost money after the war broke out, which annoyed him. You must know that oil companies all over the world are using the war to make a lot of money, and the only loss is the Baku Oil Company.

Although the closure of the Black Sea Strait prevented oil from going out by sea, he still made up his mind to clear the company's assholes. These people are so bold that the price of purchasing oil pipelines is half higher than the market price. If the Baku Oil Company is not rectified Still not overwhelmed by them.

Of course, as a smart person, Alexander Tikov does not intend to pursue too many people whose identities and backgrounds are connected to St. Petersburg and Moscow. This is something that his small stature cannot bear. He only intends to deal with those who do not have enough identity and dare to act, so that these idiots can feel the anger of the general manager Tikov.

Tikov did this not to let Russian officials feel his competence, but to let other shareholders see his attitude. Because most of the shares of the Baku Oil Company where Tikov is currently working are held by the United States, Britain and France. There were even a small number of German holdings before the war, but after the outbreak of the war, these shares were immediately divided among other countries.

Russia is the largest shareholder in the Baku oil company, but the company has many policies that need to be interfered by Britain and France. It's just that now that the war has broken out, these disturbances are much less. But Tikov will not let his guard down, he still has to make some achievements to show that he is still capable of doing well.

Just when Tikov was about to clean up his underlings, his secretary knocked on the door and came in.

Seeing that it was his secretary, Tikov asked rudely. What's the matter?

At this time, Jikov saw his secretary glance left and right, and found that there was no one, he sneaked up to him and whispered. Boss, there is a foreign businessman who wants to buy oil.

When Tikov heard the secretary's words, he asked cautiously. Who is it?

Then went on to add. If it's German, Austrian or Turk let him go, don't show up to me, I haven't lived yet.

Seeing his boss's reaction, the secretary was a little hesitant, and I wasn't sure whether this person was from the above-mentioned Allied countries, but when he thought of the Citibank check for $1,000 in his jacket pocket, he decided to take the risk and go live in the United States. .

The boss is of course not from an Allied country, and the businessman who came to buy oil this time is very generous and willing to give a 30% rebate.

Tikov, who didn't know his secretary's true mind at all, thought for a moment. In the end, the 30% rebate was very tempting. He planned to meet this amazing foreign businessman.

Bring him in quietly.

After a while, a middle-aged man wearing a trench coat and a gentleman's hat walked into Tikov's office under the leadership of the secretary. He took off his hat and greeted Tikov. Hello, Mr. Tikov.

Tikov looked at the middle-aged man expressionlessly, and asked in an emotionless voice. I don't know what this gentleman is called?

The middle-aged man introduced himself enthusiastically without seeing Tikov's expression.

You can call me an oil businessman looking for an opportunity.

Tikov still sat in his chair without any intention of wanting to get close, and still asked. Then Mr. Well, I don't know how much oil you want to buy.

Of course, the more the better. As long as you dare to sell, I will buy it, and we can negotiate the price.

Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Tikov burst into laughter, and asked in a foolish tone. Are you sure you can buy all of them? You must know that the daily output of the Baku oilfield is not low.

Even if Tikov's attitude was not friendly at all, the middle-aged man still answered without changing his face. certainly.

Then you need to tell me which company you represent to buy. Mr.

Tikov deliberately put more emphasis on the other party's name, this attitude has shown that he does not believe the other party's real name.

Do you have to know the identity behind me?

Tikov answered quite firmly. Of course, if I don't know your true identity, I won't sell you a drop of oil. Since you found me directly, I believe you have also investigated.

The coward glanced at Tikov's secretary, and Tikov, who had been observing him for a long time, said to his secretary. Pour yourself a cup of coffee for this gentleman, and if you give me a cup of black tea, just use Indian tea leaves and add two pieces of sugar.

This was the code that Tikov gave to the secretary, telling him to ask two armed guards to wait outside. As soon as he gave the code, they would immediately come in and arrest people. He also wants to prevent accidents, his life is still very precious and he can't lose anything.

Okay, I'll go get ready.

The secretary who knew his boss very well responded, and went out to prepare 'drinks', leaving only the two of them.

Now you can speak.

Tikov calmly asked the barber in front of him.

Of course. The barf continued sternly. My real name is Jansr Geis, an oil businessman from Romania. Because of the needs of the domestic industry, we want to buy a batch of oil to help production.

Looking at the Romanian oil businessman whose real name is Sirgeis in front of him, Tikov thought deeply. He has long known that Romania produces its own oil, and it is self-evident that he is importing it now. And, of course, he is very clear about Romania's order with German and Austrian oil. This is simply a naked money grab.

After listening to the new introduction of the oil businessman whose real name is Srgais, Tikov was a little undecided.

You let me think about it.

Seeing Tikov's hesitation, Sirghis didn't say much. He picked up his hat and flicked the dust that was not there at all, and told it. It doesn't matter. I can wait for your news. I will stay at the Postov Hotel. I believe you can find me in Baku.

After speaking, he turned and left the office, leaving Tikov to sit in his seat and think in secret. After Sirghis went out, his secretary came to the office to check the safety of his boss.

The secretary asked curiously. Boss, who is this coward?

That's not your concern.

Tikov was interrupted by the secretary's words and spoke impatiently. Seeing the attitude of his boss, the secretary decided to wait outside and wait for his boss to calm down before coming in, which is a good choice.

Seeing that the secretary was about to go out, Tikov stopped him. Wait a moment.

What else is there to do, boss?

Don't tell anyone what happened today.

Good boss.

After the secretary answered, he left the office, leaving Tikov behind the desk to think alone, whether he needed a Romanian to cooperate.
