Chapter 358 Cooperation x Farewell

"Uh~, Weiwei!" Xia Jieren looked at the scene in astonishment.

"I'm a little too big for a Litt."

"The maid should have led me the right way."

Xia Jieren thought speechlessly.

After a moment, Litt and Robin heard the noise and stood up.

After seeing the newcomer, Robin said coldly: "This is not the place for you to come. We are having a pajama party today."

Ever since Xia Jieren showed up, Litte has remained silent.

"It's so embarrassing! Why do you come to me at this time..." Litte's cheeks became hot.

Seeing the three figures sitting up on the bed, Xia Jieren's mouth twitched: "When did they become so close?"

"We are going to bed, let's go!" Robin said directly to them.

Xia Jieren came back to his senses and asked tentatively, "Hey! Robin, we are all here together, can you take me with you?"

The only response he got was a single word: "Get lost!"

Xia Jieren said inwardly: "It really doesn't work!"

Then he left the room disappointed.

Weiwei asked curiously, "What is Brother Jieren doing here?"

She was smart and knew that Xia Jieren had not walked into the wrong room.

Robin stared at Litt with a smile on his face and said jokingly, "You'll have to ask your sister Litt about that."

"Hate it!" Litte grumbled, then lay back on the bed with her back to them, urging them, "You've been traveling for so long during the day, go to bed quickly!"

Seeing this, Weiwei and Robin stopped asking questions and lay back on the bed.

Silent all night.

The next day, when Xia Jieren and others were having breakfast, Ikalem hurried over with samples.

After breakfast, Xia Jieren and Cobra couldn't wait to go to the meeting room.

As soon as I entered the office, a pungent yet familiar smell hit my nose.

Looking closely, Xia Jieren immediately found a bucket full of black viscous liquid.

Xia Jieren was overjoyed and walked over quickly.

After carefully examining it for a while, he said with certainty: "There is no mistake... This is oil."

"Then..." Cobra and Ikalem were very happy when they heard that.

Although Alabasta is one of the largest countries in the first half of the Grand Line, the [Paradise], the Kingdom of Alabasta is very poor.

The environment of the Alabasta Kingdom is harsh, with most of the land being desert, few oases, and an extreme lack of water resources.

It is conceivable how low Alabasta's food self-sufficiency rate is.

Moreover, the population of Alabasta is as high as tens of millions, and the amount of food that needs to be imported every year is an astronomical figure.

In short, although Alabasta is large, its people are not rich.

Now, the Kingdom of Alabasta has another way to make money, how can Cobra not be happy.

Not only Cobra was happy, but Xia Jieren was also very happy.

He will gain a new source of energy.

Although oil is good, as a fuel, it is far inferior to the energy liquid produced by the Zerg.

Therefore, oil has three main functions for Xia Jieren:

1. Directly converted into Zerg energy.

2. Through cracking and reforming methods, basic chemical raw materials such as ethylene and propylene are produced, and then various plastics, synthetic fibers, synthetic rubber, fertilizers, pesticides, detergents and countless other chemicals and materials are synthesized.

3. Used as lubricant or solvent.

While Xia Jieren was thinking about the various uses of oil in his mind, Cobra looked at him expectantly.

Seeing Cobra's expectant look, Xia Jieren smiled gently: "Don't worry, my promise is still valid."

"I will contact the country and send people to the Kingdom of Alabasta to build oil wells and extract oil and natural gas."

"Alabasta will receive 1 Beli for every ton of oil and gas extracted."

Cobra heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this.

Fortunately, the duck in my mouth did not fly away.

"I just wonder how much oil reserves there are near [Rapeseed Flower]?" Xia Jieren said expectantly.

Hearing this, Cobra and Ikalem looked at each other, their eyes filled with seven parts of expectation and three parts of worry.

Xia Jieren comforted him, "Don't worry. The smallest oil field is worth at least 100 million Baileys."

"Besides, the oil in the oil field near [Rape Flower] is almost overflowing. It must be a large oil field with a reserve of about 100 million tons."

"Then I'll take your good words." Cobra said with a smile.

Subsequently, Cobra and Xia Jieren carried out a number of cooperation projects based on the rapeseed oil field, mainly involving the trade of food, seeds, weapons and daily necessities, desert transformation, etc.

The Bailey that the Alabasta Kingdom earned from oil, after a circulation, returned to the wallet of the Netherlands Kingdom.

Of course, the Kingdom of Alabasta will not lose out either. In the process, they will obtain large oases, life-saving food and powerful weapons.

"Thank you so much for your country's help!" Cobra grabbed Xia Jieren's hand and said gratefully.

Xia Jieren smiled and said modestly: "We are just cooperating for a win-win situation."

The two sides had a very pleasant conversation.

Xia Jieren and others stayed in Albania for another two days.

During this period, Xia Jieren saw Weiwei's Karoo Duck named "Run Fast", a very cute duck, about the same size as Weiwei, and very much loved by Robin and Litte.

In addition, Xia Jieren and Robin copied the plot of Tomb Raiders Notes on a dark and windy night and sneaked into the tomb of the Nefertari royal family.

Robin was very happy to see the historical text he had longed for.

After visiting the tomb of Cobra's ancestors, Xia Jieren still felt a little guilty when he saw him.

Weiwei also introduced to Xia Jieren and others the members of their "Shasha Group" and the future rebel leader, little Kousha.

After meeting most of the original characters in the Kingdom of Alabasta, Xia Jieren and the others prepared to leave.

In front of the palace, Xia Jieren stopped Cobra and others who came to see him off: "No need to see him off!"

"Welcome to visit Alabasta Kingdom again!" Cobra said politely.

"Sister Litte, Sister Robin, you must come and play with me again!" Princess Vivi said reluctantly.

Xia Jieren smiled and consoled him, "Don't be like this! We'll see each other again in the Holy Land of Mary Joa later."

"That's true!" Cobra agreed with a smile.

Xia Jieren waved his hand towards the sky, and in the blink of an eye, several mighty and domineering flying dragons landed in front of everyone.

Xia Jieren and others boarded the flying dragon and waved goodbye to them.

The flying dragon flapped its wings quickly and soon disappeared into the sky.

Looking at the backs of Xia Jieren and the others as they left, Bell said with emotion: "What powerful creatures they are."

Bell is the lieutenant of the Alabasta Kingdom Guard and a user of the Animal-type, Bird-Bird Fruit, Falcon Form ability.

He could clearly feel the powerful force of the flying dragon.

"The Kingdom of the Netherlands is indeed a powerful country." Cobra nodded solemnly.

Through these two days of conversation, Cobra could clearly feel the power of the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

At this moment, the Kingdom of the Netherlands seemed to be out of touch with the world, and its ideas and concepts were very different from those of the outside world.
