Upon hearing Lin Qiang's invitation, Lu Yuan shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Never mind! I already have my own base! So... I'm sorry!"
When Lin Qiang heard Lu Yuan say that he also had a base, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"How...how old are you this year?"
Lu Yuan smiled and said, "Twenty-four!"
Lin Qiang nodded in satisfaction and said, "Not bad! Not bad! To have your own survivor base at just over twenty years old! Very good!"
The other party said "good" several times in a row, indicating that they were quite satisfied with Lu Yuan.
"But you saved my life, so I owe you a favor. If you ever need anything in the future, just come to me!" After saying that, Lin Qiang took out a gold-embossed business card from his pocket and handed it to Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan took the business card and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. He hadn't expected the other party to still be someone who hadn't escaped low tastes. The business card looked glittering gold, clearly indicating the nouveau riche's style.
Seemingly sensing the disdain in Lu Yuan's expression, Lin Qiang coughed lightly to cover his embarrassment and said, "This business card was made for me by my subordinates! I didn't really want to be so high-profile! It's just a contact method! Feel free to contact me if you need anything in the future!"
Lu Yuan thought for a moment and realized that he was currently lacking quite a lot of things! Since the other party had promised to help him, why wait until later? Wasn't this a perfect opportunity?
So Lu Yuan coughed softly and said, "Brother Lin, actually... I do have something I need your help with right now!"
After listening, Lin Qiang smiled and said, "Speak freely!"
"I plan to relocate my people to Shanxi Province, so I'm currently short a lot of fuel there! I wonder what your situation is like..."
Lin Qiang burst into laughter upon hearing Lu Yuan's words.
"Fuel is easy to get! I thought it was something serious! But are you really going to use my favor like this?"
Lu Yuan looked at the other party with some surprise. He didn't expect that the other party could get fuel so easily, which was something that no one else could get. He even said that it was a small matter. Was it a small matter?
"Um... can this favor be used in two parts?" Lu Yuan felt a little shameless after saying this, but since the other party had already asked, he wasn't afraid of losing face!
As expected, Lin Qiang was taken aback by Lu Yuan's words. He was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.
"Good lad, you really surprised me! Fine! Use them separately! Consider the fuel a gift from me! This is a one-time favor! Once it's used, it's gone!" The other person stared intently at Lu Yuan as he spoke.
Lu Yuan was surprised that the other party actually agreed, and immediately scratched his head and said, "No problem! No problem!"
The other person nodded and asked, "How much fuel do you need?"
Lu Yuan scratched his head, thought for a moment, and quietly held up one finger. Feeling it was a bit too little, he held up another finger and said, "Twenty tons!"
Lin Qiang looked at Lu Yuan with a strange expression and said, "Twenty tons?"
Lu Yuan hadn't expected the other person to look at him like that, so he tentatively asked, "Too much?"
The other party laughed and said, "Twenty tons is about the weight of a tanker truck. Here's what I'll do: I'll send you a cargo ship full of gasoline! But you'll have to arrange it yourself! How about that?"
"What? A whole ship?" Lu Yuan suddenly felt that happiness had come too suddenly. He didn't know exactly how much was in a ship, but it was definitely more than twenty tons!
Lin Qiang nodded and said, "That's right! It's a whole ship, about two hundred tons!"
Lu Yuan almost jumped for joy.
"You're telling me to get it myself? Um... you don't mean this fuel isn't yours, do you?"
Lin Qiang looked at Lu Yuan and smiled, saying, "Of course it's not mine, but this oil doesn't belong to anyone else either! I'll give you the address, you can go get it yourself!"
"Okay! Where is it?"
Lin Qiang took out a mobile phone from his pocket, added Lu Yuan as a friend, and then shared the address with Lu Yuan.
"This is a private cargo ship. The things inside belonged to a friend of mine, but he's no longer with us. So, it was only natural that he gave them to me. I don't need fuel right now, so I was planning to give them to you. However, I'm short-handed here, so you'll have to go by yourself! It's a bit far, but the shipping lanes are very clear, especially with all the flooding now. Bringing the fuel back will be easy!"
Lu Yuan nodded, thanked Lin Qiang, and Chen Ke was released. The two then left the villa.
Along the way, Chen Ke was somewhat surprised when Lu Yuan told her about what had just happened.
"Brother Lu! You mean that person gave us over two hundred tons of fuel?"
Lu Yuan couldn't help but smile. He couldn't help but smile, after all, this was two hundred tons of fuel oil. With this fuel oil, they could get their hands on some large-scale engineering equipment!
"Yes! But it's not in our hands yet. The location is in the Bohai Sea, so we need to bring the ship over!"
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan quickly took out his phone to check the map. Maps about shipping were easy to find, and Lu Yuan quickly planned out the route. However, Lu Yuan had never been on a ship before and did not know how to get there, but he had a general idea.
However, one good thing for Lu Yuan is that there is a deep-water port near Qingshui City that can accommodate some 10,000-ton giant ships. Cargo ships carrying 200 tons of fuel oil have no problem at all. Now, Lu Yuan's biggest challenge is to find a reliable person to bring the fuel oil back.
