Unlimited lease term
Putin is very depressed.
Kaliningrad currently has nothing, except amber mines, and almost no other resources. Its industries are mainly fishery, pulp industry, and various machinery manufacturing industries. And agriculture is based on dairy, meat, animal husbandry, and poultry breeding.
It sounds like there are many pillar enterprises, but in fact, before the Polish-Russian War, the life of local residents was average. After all, the situation in Russia as a whole was average, and they all relied on the government to sell oil and weather.
. Kaliningrad has few resources, and the situation is even worse.
Now that we have experienced the devastation of artillery fire, especially in order to destroy the Polish army that invaded Kaliningrad, Putin chose the American combat method at all costs, directly using aerial bombing to fight a war with zero casualties. The result of this battle is naturally
Biao Bing crippled the Polish army that invaded Kaliningrad, but the price paid was the destruction of Kaliningrad's already weak infrastructure.
Rebuilding Kaliningrad requires a huge amount of money, which Russia currently cannot afford. This makes Kaliningrad feel a bit like Alaska. Of course, Kaliningrad is more livable than Alaska. But there is a problem
The reason is that Russia’s territory is the largest in the world, and it is truly vast and sparsely populated. Even in Moscow, as long as you are a Russian national, if you want to build a house in the suburbs of Moscow, you can just allocate a piece of land.
It does not affect the national highway or the city planning of Moscow. The house you build there will belong to you. Your family can live here for generations.
If you go down, you only need to pay a small amount of house tax every year.
In this case, you say Kaliningrad is livable. Will that attract people? Are Russians willing to go? Of course. There must be other countries willing to go. But is it possible for Putin to let other countries occupy Kaliningrad?
Selling may be a good choice. But what if it becomes the second Alaska? Especially Lin Feng, who has always been shrewd and has a strong business acumen. He never suffered a loss in business. The Russian Emperor Alexander who sold Alaska back then
Nikolayevich II was scolded by the Russians for hundreds of years, and this transaction was also a trigger for the subsequent 'February Revolution'.
Of course. Speaking of Alexander II Nikolayevich, he was also the master of China's suffering. He forced China (Qing Dynasty) to sign the "Treaty of Aihun" and the "Treaty of Beijing between China and Russia", resulting in the loss of millions of square kilometers of land in China.
Putin does not want to become the second Alexander II Nikolayevich. You must know that this Alexander II Nikolayevich was assassinated. Although Putin’s current regime is better than that of Alexander II Nikolayevich,
Yevich is much more stable, but he doesn't want to do this kind of thing that involves losing power and humiliating the country. But as Lin Feng said, this Kaliningrad is of little use. Especially after the war, it was so devastated that it would be hot to hold on to.
ah.
With Putin's silence, Lin Feng naturally understood what his concerns were.
"President Putin, I have a proposal, that is, I will lease Kaliningrad indefinitely, and the annual rent is US$1 billion. When I stop renting, Kaliningrad will be returned to Russia. During the lease period, other
The ownership still belongs to Russia. Of course, if Russia wants to take back Kaliningrad, it can certainly do so. But it needs to compensate me a hundred times the rent during the lease period!" Lin Feng suggested.
Putin's mind moved. This proposal is good. At 1 billion US dollars per year, Russia has exchanged a devastated and almost uninhabited land for a large amount of foreign exchange. Moreover, the territorial ownership still belongs to Russia, although Russia needs to pay to take it back.
A hundred times the rent. But why would Putin take it back? Why not just let Lin Feng continue to rent? If one day Lin Feng stops renting, the infrastructure invested before will be indispensable. By then, Lin Feng will be helping Russia rebuild Kalinin.
Grad.
This is a great deal!
"Lin, this is a good proposal. But there is a prerequisite. If you don't rent it, you cannot destroy or remove any real estate in the territory!" Putin put forward the condition.
Lin Feng smiled. This meant that Putin agreed.
"Of course, of course. That's for sure. As far as our relationship is concerned, do you think I would do such a shameless thing if I stopped renting? Also, I also know that the situation in Russia is not very good.
, There is nothing left to be done, so my ancestor’s 10 billion US dollars in 10 years were directly transferred into the Russian account, what do you think?” Lin Fengxiao said.
"Well, sure. Then I'll be waiting for you at the Kremlin!" Putin laughed.
Soon, the whole world was shocked again.
The impact of the Polish-Russian war was still being discussed here, and how to contain such a war in the future. Over there, the Kremlin held a press conference. Putin and Lin Feng attended, announcing that Russia would lease Kaliningrad to Lin Feng. Every year
The rent is US$1 billion, and Lin Feng leases it for 10 years in advance. The term is unlimited!
This news shocked people into silence. What is going on? How could Russia suddenly lease Kaliningrad to Lin Feng indefinitely. Although the price of 1 billion US dollars is indeed a lot of money. For
For Kaliningrad, which was hit hard by the war, it is good to rent it out for US$1 billion. But isn’t the Putin government extremely powerful? How could it suddenly lend it to Lin Feng?
And what does Lin Feng want in Kaliningrad? This made the people extremely surprised.
"Bastard!" Old Morgan and the others changed their expressions when they heard the news. Before this, they were still thinking about whether they could find a way to get the amber mining rights in Kaliningrad from Russia. They didn't think Lin
The relationship between Feng and Putin is so close, isn't it all about money? American families are never short of money. But before they could take any action, Lin Feng directly obtained the entire Kaliningrad. He could
It was really cruel. Without fully understanding the connection between the amber mine and genetic technology, he just took over it completely. This was too cruel. It caught them completely off guard.
"It seems that we can only cooperate with him!" Old Rockefeller said helplessly.
This time, Lin Feng is really ahead of them. But fortunately, Lin Feng is also a member of the organization, so he only suffers a little loss and gives more benefits. But for them, as long as the final result is achieved,
That's OK.
Hum! Old Dupont groaned.
"He rented Kaliningrad?" The heads of EU countries frowned.
They couldn't understand why Lin Feng was renting Kaliningrad. This place had few resources and was under fire. Under such circumstances, Kaliningrad had almost no value. Lin Feng was interested in amber mines? But
Even if you take a fancy to it, you still need to invest a lot of money in reconstruction. If this is the case, it is not cost-effective. This is not a wise investment behavior.
Is Lin Feng a fool? If Lin Feng is a fool, then everyone in the world is a fool. Since he is not a fool, then he must have an agenda? Russia's resources? Or is the Chinese government behind this?
OK? This is the only reason the EU can think of.
Immediately, the EU issued a statement that they would not interfere in the transaction between Russia and Lin Feng. However, they hoped that a war like the one between Poland and Russia would not happen again. The EU would resolutely prevent similar things from happening next time. And no matter which party it is,
If a war breaks out between the two sides, both sides will be subject to EU sanctions.
Obviously, the EU's words are just trying to scare away the tiger. They don't know what Lin Feng and Russia are doing, and whether Lin Feng is providing foreign exchange to Russia for some reason. In short, they must give a warning. After all, this time, the one who suffered the most serious damage is
In Poland, the capital Warsaw was razed to the ground, and the economic losses were much greater than that of the destroyed Kaliningrad Oblast. Although the death toll on both sides was similar, Poland still suffered a loss.
Of course, the EU did not just knock on the wall, but also had a phone call with the Chinese government to discuss the world peace situation, China's views and opinions on the Polish-Russian war, and what suggestions it had for its follow-up.
"This kid, I don't know what he and Putin are doing that makes us wipe his butt!" Mr. Wen looked helpless.
The EU talked to them this time. Although the words were more polite, it meant that the Chinese government should not get involved in EU affairs. This time Russia severely damaged Poland. Although the war has subsided, the matter is not over yet. The EU has already treated Russia.
It is a matter of high vigilance. At this time, the Chinese government had better not have too much involvement with Russia. Of course, the EU is not denying normal diplomatic relations between China and Russia, it just does not want the Chinese government to support Russia. Like Lin Feng, 1 billion U.S. dollars
In the past, although it was not too much, who knows if there is more behind it. What if the Chinese government spends tens of billions on it? The Chinese government has always been generous and donated hundreds of millions or billions of dollars to Africa.
Isn’t it normal for Russia to donate tens of billions or something?
If China announces that it will make free donations to Kaliningrad to help rebuild it, the EU will not be dumbfounded! Then Russia will attack Warsaw in vain and stab the heart of the EU. The EU will not be able to stand it.
"What do you think he wants in Kaliningrad?" Mr. Xi also wondered what Lin Feng was doing.
"Ignore him. This is his own business. Let's not ask or interfere. As for reconstruction, if he has money, he will rebuild it himself. The state will definitely not pay for it!" Mr. Wen affirmed.
The Chinese government is offending the EU by spending money to rebuild Kaliningrad. Now that the relationship between China and the EU is developing in a good direction, it naturally does not want to break up its relationship with the EU because of this matter.
But what the hell is this kid doing! (To be continued...)
