Upon hearing this, the old man suddenly looked up at Su Ran, then waved to Fu Rongzhi behind him. Fu Rongzhi, knowing the seriousness of the matter, immediately led all the extra people away.

Although the two spoke in hushed tones, they also wanted to eliminate any external influences. After Fu Rongzhi led the three extra people out of the office, only Su Ran and the old gentleman remained in the room.

The old man straightened his expression and looked at Su Ran, "Su girl, tell me properly."

After all, China has a large population, and many one-time resources are already scarce, so they have to be purchased from other countries. Therefore, the elderly have always been very concerned about these issues.

Su Ran also spoke up, "I went to an auction some time ago when I had nothing to do and bought some small items. Recently, my people have discovered that there's a big treasure among those small items."

The old man listened speechlessly as Su Ran said things like "little thing" and "little thing is a big treasure." Su Ran observed the old man's expression and continued.

"Then I discovered that the mountains contained abundant oil and natural gas resources. I'm very patriotic, so the first thing I thought of was China."

The old man didn't point out the meaning behind Su Ran's words, since any smart person could understand it, and saying it directly would be meaningless.

But Su Ran's next words almost made the old man lose his composure: "It is understood that the deposit contains about 1.5 billion tons of oil and about 90 billion cubic meters of natural gas."

These weren't entirely fabricated by her. After all, as soon as they obtained the mountain range, Su Bufan sent people to survey it and prepare to dig for diamonds. Although the information came from the system, having surveyors made it seem less surprising.

Baba Sheep had no idea that this was a rich mineral deposit. They sold it because they needed money for infrastructure construction, and Su Ran's high price at the auction solved Baba Sheep's immediate problem.

Su Ran obtained the mountain range entirely because of her sixth sense at the time; she simply felt that the diamonds inside were worth far more than that, but she never expected that it would contain such abundant one-time resources.

Moreover, Song Shiyan also wanted to compete with him at that time. I wonder how he would feel if he knew that he had given up such a golden mountain.

Su Ran smiled slightly. The old man opposite her was a little excited. After all, this was the largest oil field discovered in all of Asia. If it were used for national purposes, China's international standing would likely be further enhanced.

The old man knew that although Su Ran loved her country, she was also a businesswoman, and businessmen never do business at a loss. Since things had come to this point, she must have some demands.

The old man straightened his expression. "Little Su, what do you want?"

Su Ran smiled slightly, "Sir, you know I'm a businesswoman, but I'm not capable of completely taking over this oil field. After all, it wouldn't be good to be watched by other countries."

Su Ran first lowered her stance, after all, she had done some great things on the international stage, and she was also a little worried. Then she continued, "So I want to cooperate with the country, let the country take the lead in mining, and I will just be a lazy bum who sits behind the country and eats a little money."

Listening to Su Ran's words, the old man understood for the first time what Versailles meant. A few trillion in revenue was considered a small amount of money, while China's annual GDP was only a hundred trillion.

Moreover, with so many companies operating in it, Su Ran's mine alone can generate a net income of trillions!

Su Xiaoya said that trillions is a small amount of money?

Su Ran noticed a hint of resentment in the old man's tone and realized that she seemed a bit too Versailles-like. She smiled and replied, "Please excuse me, sir."

The old man didn't say anything, after all, the identity information of every citizen in China can be checked. Su Ran's ancestors for three generations had not made any mistakes and she was a genuine model citizen.

The old man laughed heartily, "Su girl, the things are yours, and the country won't take advantage of you. As long as you can give priority to selling the mined items to China, that's fine."

Su Ran smiled and shook her head. What the old man said was not what she meant. She then continued, "Sir, my idea is for me to cooperate with the country. I will donate 10% of what is mined to China free of charge, and I will sell the remaining 90% to China. The price will be 4 cents lower than what is purchased from abroad."

Upon hearing this, the old man's eyes lit up. Putting everything else aside, the 10% of the profits given away for free would exceed 100 billion, and the remaining 90% would be prioritized for China, at a price 4 cents lower than the overseas acquisition price.

Putting aside other factors, if the price of oil is calculated at 2200 per ton, then the original purchase price would be 3.3 trillion, which could be fully purchased for 3.2994 trillion.

If natural gas is calculated at 2.6 yuan per cubic meter, the original purchase price would be 234 billion yuan. Reducing the price by 0.4 yuan would allow it to be purchased for 198 billion yuan.

Moreover, Su Ran is willing to contribute 10% for free, which means she is giving away 353.4 billion yuan to the country. This is not paying taxes, but giving it away for free. Which entrepreneur has such a great spirit?

The old man wasn't blinded by these actions; he knew he couldn't have gotten to where he was now without a head. He smiled and looked at Su Ran.

"Su girl, you casually take out over 200 billion yuan and give the country so many preferential policies. You don't earn much from this, but the country gets such a huge benefit. I wonder what your requirements are, Su girl?"

Su Ran smiled and said, "Sir, you're mistaken. It's not about letting the country benefit. For me, it's a mutually beneficial deal. But I have a small wish: I hope the country can protect me properly. I'm a little afraid of being ganged up on."

She's now shamelessly asking for protection, since after the incident in Japan, some of her businesses there were suppressed, while others that Japan didn't dare to suppress, and she still had business dealings with the United States.

The old man smiled and said, "Don't worry, Su girl. Since the country has protected you for so long, it will naturally continue to protect you as well as before."

Su Ran smiled without saying a word. Both of them understood. The old man meant that as long as you remain upright and don't do anything illegal or criminal, the country will protect you. However, this was not what Su Ran wanted.

"Old sir, you should understand young people, right? I like to go out and have fun every day, and sometimes I get into little trouble, and if I'm not careful, I might get ganged up on..."

The old man understood what she meant and said with a smile, "Su girl, as long as you are not caught, as long as you are not sent to that place, as long as there is no evidence to prove your innocence, then the country will always be your strong backing. Wherever you are, as long as you have a Chinese passport, China will ensure that you get home safely."

Su Ran smiled slightly. She had actually thought about this request for a long time. She wouldn't stay in China forever. After all, the outside world was so exciting, and it would be boring if she didn't go and get involved.

The old man's meaning was simple: as long as you don't get caught red-handed, and as long as the other party doesn't have perfect evidence to send you to an international court, then you can do whatever you want.
