Chapter 1270: Chapter 501 Finance Capital_2 Chapter 1270: Chapter 501 Finance Capital_2 Originally, for his own safety and that of Dream Island, Yan Fei would not let the Drone Avatar stray far from his side, let alone stay permanently in the Middle East 9000 kilometers away. However, Yan Fei had just defeated The United States of America, and other countries dared not engage in military conflict with Dream Island. Moreover, with the rapid advancement of Dream Island Technology, new military equipment was designed every day, and the strength of Dream Island grew stronger daily. Moreover, Yan Fei himself was a god-level expert, and with another god-level expert, “Who Am I” defending the island, the defenses of Dream Island were now impregnable.
Because of this, Yan Fei dared to let the Drone Avatar stay far from him for extended periods. Besides, the Middle East was only a mere 9000 kilometers from Dream Island; if Yan Fei needed it, the Drone could return to Dream Island in just three hours, just as capable of completing the tasks assigned by Yan Fei.
Every day thereafter, Yan Fei would arrive punctually at the underground oil warehouse to perform a massive relocation of oil, transferring 5.4 billion tons of oil to Dream Island daily. As time passed, the underground warehouse's oil supply continued to increase and eventually turned into an endless underground oil ocean.
In the World Oil Futures Market, spurred by wild speculation by international financial capital led by The United States of America, the price of oil futures had skyrocketed to an unprecedented $500 per barrel. Seeing the oil prices continue to rise and adhering to the principle of seizing any bargain, Lu Pingping gradually sold another 200 billion barrels of oil futures contracts, which were promptly purchased by investors worldwide. Under the surveillance of the Artificial Intelligence “Dream,” Lu Pingping knew that the vast majority of these oil futures contracts were being bought up by those international financial capitals.
These staggering volumes of oil futures transactions had brought over 10 trillion US Dollars of immense wealth to Dream Island. Yan Fei was very satisfied with this result, though Lu Pingping was not aware of Yan Fei's trump card, and she still worried every day about how Dream Island would fulfill these oil futures contracts. However, this concern did not dominate Lu Pingping's emotions, and after receiving these US Dollars, she quickly spent them, transforming them into various rare resources…
Ten days later, the amount of oil that Yan Fei had relocated to Dream Island had reached an astounding 500 billion tons, and Dream Island's first oil warehouse was already filled to capacity. After sealing the first oil warehouse, Yan Fei began to operate the second oil warehouse, aiming to fill this warehouse entirely with oil.
In the underground space 6500 meters deep in the Middle East where the Drone was located, thanks to the rapid replenishment from above, the vast oil ocean below had scarcely diminished. However, the oil above was beginning to dry out, and the flow rate of oil into the ocean was decreasing. Yan Fei understood that in a short while, all of the Middle East's oil would flow into the underground space, leaving no oil remaining in the entire region.
During this period, international financial capitals led by The United States of America had finally acquired enough stakes in the oil futures market, and with their collective efforts, they had driven the price of oil futures to an unimaginable $550 per barrel. Consequently, the international financial capitals began to cash in their chips, preparing to harvest the entire oil futures market to accomplish their goal of making a fortune.
The moves of the international financial capitals were quickly discovered by Yan Fei, who was always monitoring them. Yan Fei had instigated this vast undertaking not only to crush the US Dollar Hegemony of The United States of America but also to concurrently strike at America's financial capitals. As long as America's financial capitals were severely damaged, their control over the global economy would weaken, and subsequently, their support for The United States of America would decrease. Without the support of financial capitals, the comprehensive national power of The United States of America would further weaken, aiding Dream Island in defeating America.
Yan Fei had already investigated and found that most of the American financial capitals were controlled by the Dragon Slaying Club. The members of the Dragon Slaying Club, perhaps due to their prolonged isolation, began to hallucinate, thinking they had regained the ability to rewrite history. Thus, they started to make moves in China, intending to turn China into their next hunting ground.
Having witnessed the astonishing control capabilities of the hidden hands behind the scenes, Yan Fei's vision had greatly expanded, and he felt that the Dragon Slaying Club was ridiculously weak. Not only were the plans of the Dragon Slaying Club often discovered, but their actions frequently failed as well, entirely unlike the imperceptible changes ushered by the hidden hands that changed history. Just when you think you have successfully defied fate, you don't realize that this is precisely what the hidden hands wanted you to achieve…
Yan Fei was momentarily incapable of dealing with the hidden hands behind the scenes, but he was more than capable of handling the emerging Dragon Slaying Club. And to achieve this strategic purpose, even if it meant earning less money himself, Yan Fei was determined to prevent the international financial capitals from reaping the world oil futures market, thus indirectly weakening the enemy's strength. He then deliberately designed a trap, aiming to leave the international capitals with heavy losses.
On a sunny morning, when Lu Pingping sought out Yan Fei again due to concerns about oil futures contracts, Yan Fei finally stopped his oil moving operation and directly took Lu Pingping to the secret warehouse three hundred meters underground. The oil warehouse was a top secret of Dream Island. Although there were passages connected to the outside, the exits were under strict surveillance by the Artificial Intelligence “Dream,” and no one else but Yan Fei could enter, unless they wished to die…
Therefore, aside from Yan Fei, no one on Dream Island knew there was such an oil warehouse underground. As Lu Pingping stood by the oil warehouse, looking down at the massive oil reserves that seemed like endless oceans, she fell into a daze.
Lu Pingping managed the specific operations of Dream Island, and she knew all the details of the goods entering and leaving Dream Island. She couldn't recall a time when Dream Island had purchased so much oil. Even if all the oil tankers in the world were used to transport oil, it would not be possible to bring so much oil to Dream Island in a few short years…
Moreover, the underground of Dream Island was made of hard rock, which couldn't naturally produce oil. This meant that the oil wasn't originally present on Dream Island. So the question arose, how did so much oil appear underground on Dream Island?
Seeing the puzzled expression on Lu Pingping's face, Yan Fei said, “Pingping, I can't explain to you how this oil came to be, because it simply can't be clearly explained. You just need to know that this oil now belongs to Dream Island, and you have full authority to manage it.”
Lu Pingping immediately understood that the appearance of this oil must be related to Yan Fei's special ability. Knowing this, her heart no longer felt puzzled, but rather joyfully said, “That's great, now that we have so much oil on Dream Island, I won't have to worry about us defaulting on oil futures.”
Yan Fei said, “The total inventory of oil in this warehouse is about 50 billion tons, which is 350 billion barrels. Similarly, in another place underground, there is another warehouse, which also stores 50 billion tons of oil. That is to say, Dream Island possesses at least 100 billion tons of oil reserves.”
Lu Pingping gasped and said, “As far as I know, the whole world produced 44.5 billion tons of oil last year. If we really have 100 billion tons of oil, then just Dream Island's oil could support the entire world for more than 22 years.”
Yan Fei smiled and said, “Pingping, actually the total amount of oil we have on Dream Island is not 100 billion tons, but a full 200 billion tons, which is 1400 billion barrels. It's just that Dream Island doesn't have enough space to store them, so another 100 billion tons of oil are still kept elsewhere.”
Lu Pingping's eyes immediately sparkled, and she quickly calculated, saying, “The current oil price is 550 US dollars per barrel. If we really have 1400 billion barrels of oil, selling them all would create a massive wealth of 770 trillion US dollars…”
