The importance of energy to Russia is self-evident. The rise in energy prices has slowed down Russia, which was already on the verge of despair in the 1990s, so that Russia has the nickname of gas stations disguised as a country. Some people believe that Russia is more powerful than Saudi Arabia, only with nuclear bombs.

Of course the problem is not just that simple. Russia was extremely chaotic in the 1990s, and there was no basic security environment. Its economic capabilities must have been underestimated a lot, so it would not be inferior to Greece in some economic statistics. But energy is still an important factor in Russia's declining decline, and no one will deny this.

"You asked me to touch the energy, are there someone outside who wants to kill me?" Lin Ye looked at Lijiya with a very surprised look. The senior indeed had a strong sense of Wu Dalang's immersion. Can ordinary people touch such things? Could Lijiya not see the previous Khodorkovsky who attacked the energy industry, and is still thinking about life in a sturdy manner.

"What are you talking about?" Lijiya retorted angrily, but immediately understood what Lin Ye was worried about and slowed down, "Are you talking about oil and gas? I'm not asking you to touch these two things, it's scaring you."

Russia's oil extraction is rising every year, and surplus appears at the same time. The implementation of relevant government policies has revitalized the entire Russian economy. So for Russia, who dares to pay attention to this aspect, it is okay to make small fuss. Russia can tolerate several sporadic small oil companies as embellishments. If it really makes a big deal, there is only a dead end.

Otherwise, in terms of hostility to the government, Berezovsky and Gusinsky obviously jumped more happily, but in the end they were just expelled from abroad. Khodorkovsky became the main target of the Kremlin's killer. It can be seen that Russia cannot tolerate the private control of oil.

"Then do you mean coal?" Although Lin Ye cannot be called extremely smart, he is not a fool. Especially when he suspects that the goal has been narrowed to this range, he cannot guess that it is obviously not online. Is Lijiya ready to let him dig uranium mines?

"Yes, compared with oil and natural gas, Moscow pays attention to it significantly differently." As for the differences, Lidya is Russian, and she obviously understands more clearly why coal is not valued.

For Russia, there are no shortages of these three types of energy. This can be seen from the fact that the domestic energy price of Russia is so cheap. However, from the perspective of exporters, the first two are obviously more important. The former is not as large as the latter, and for Europe, the main export destination of Russia, it is definitely more attractive. After all, Europeans are now the most developed region in the world economy. They pursue more when they have money, and they have to consider embracing and being qualified. How could they choose coal?

Especially Europeans prefer natural gas, which is a clean, convenient, high-quality and efficient energy. Therefore, when direct combustion, the calorific value and thermal efficiency of natural gas are not only higher than coal, but also higher than oil. The calorific value of coal is less than half of natural gas. What is more valuable is that natural gas is burning evenly, clean, and has few harmful components, which is less polluted to the environment compared to coal and oil. Therefore, experts in many industries take natural gas at a high level and prefer it. They often use natural gas in special processes in the industry to make the most ideal high-quality products and strive for the best economic benefits. Taking natural gas as a chemical raw material shows its importance and irreplaceability. Compared with other chemical raw materials, natural gas has its own unique advantages because it has various special ingredients.

As for oil, as long as the automobile industry does not have a major change, it has always been the most important among the three energy sources. The price comparison between the three also proves this. In this case, Russia certainly pays more attention to the first two, even if Russia's coal reserves are the world's number one at any time.

Coal is not very important to Russia as a whole, but its importance to coal in Siberia is still the first priority. After all, Russia also has a gap between the east and west, and the European part is a big city. Compared with the European part, it is a bit luxurious for these cities in Asia to build natural gas pipelines, and at least in recent years it has not yet impacted the status of coal.

"I'm still a little worried. If it attracts Moscow's attention, it seems that I'm not much stronger than an ant." Lin Ye never thought about energy and asked, "There are coal mines in your coastal Krai? What's the reserves?"

"What did you say?" Lijiya almost laughed out loud and said with a pretentious attitude, "In fact, the reserves are not much, only half of the reserves of the Mongolian coal mine that you dare not take action. Of course, you must not swallow them all. It would be great if you could get one-thirty. If we hadn't been a little short of cash now, we wouldn't have thought of this. After all, it was a little blatant."

"Then let's go and have a look when you have time." After drinking the wine, Lin Ye nodded with a very interested look. He understood that Lijiya was also a little worried about the current situation. Such a large debt was indeed uneasy.

In the same physical industry, the easiest enterprises that can count money while lying down are definitely energy-related enterprises. Selling energy and opening factories are not the same thing. There are many countries in the world that can rely on natural resources to support the whole country. There are not so many countries that rely on industrial operations. The latter requires many conditions in many aspects, but it is not enough to have a sized population.

Who has money for a listed company or a coal boss of the same size? Don’t even think about it, it must be the latter. The former owns not money but market value, while the latter owns cash. Especially the group of oil dads in the Bay Area are all characters that cannot be afforded. Any sovereign fund can be released, and hundreds of billions of dollars in cash can be taken out. There are many multinational companies in the world with a market value of more than 100 million US dollars, but if multinational companies want to maintain their own production, it is impossible to withdraw funds from them. And those oil dads can, and they are full of local tyrants everywhere they go.

"It's this? It seems that there is no one in an ordinary place? Is it new?" Lin Ye followed Lijiya here. The name here is Adamsovkeye. As for what the name means, how could he know such a profound question? He only knows that the environment here is good, and the coverage rate of clear water and blue sky is very high.

If Lijiya hadn't made it in advance, he would have thought that Mao Mei was interested in the forest here and was preparing to build a new logging area. She wouldn't have thought that there was something more valuable underneath.

"Who told you that it was explored? The time of discovery here was about the same as my father, but the coal mines we found in the Binhai Krai have long been enough. The mines running now can support the use of the people in the Binhai Krai. So there is only a experimental mine that has been abandoned for a long time." Lijiya raised her head, and this look made Lin Ye helpless. Who is this pride for? Are the plants around?

"Now the whole country is implementing an energy strategy, so we naturally have to use natural resources to develop the local economy. In addition to the relatively high freedom of forests, the rest is coal mines. You also know that our Russian oil and gas are not something that ordinary people can touch!" Lijiya asked the bodyguard to open the way and headed along a route that was almost impossible to see clearly the suspected road.

"It seems we can take it down." Lin Ye handed a bottle of water to Lijiya who was following him. Her careful look warmed Mao Mei's body and mind. She also enjoyed this feeling of being cared for. No girl would refuse a man's love.

"I'll ask about the bottom line of the government's price tag at that time, and we should cooperate with each other and take it down." Lijiya said after a while, "It may be necessary to build a road. If we Russians are, we don't know how long it will take. And locals may not be willing to do this kind of work. Can you find a way to recruit some labor to build roads and go down the wells."

"I won't do this, please spare me, right?" Lin Ye smiled bitterly when he heard this, "Don't give me this multiple-choice question that is not a human inside or outside. No one knows what this mine looks like. If you have a little bit of mine disaster, you will be condemned to my conscience."

Lijiya nodded clearly, and her expression showed that she didn't believe a word of what this man said, and she was conscientious. Such an obvious lie was also a loss and said with a loss. "You are afraid of losing money from mines, right? What should I do? We owe so much money now, and we must make a return as soon as possible. We can't just rely on a few ports to make small money, right? Of course, the lower the cost, the better, and our Russian labor force is not enough, and the labor costs are still high. Only you Chinese are suitable. Aren't you Chinese very hardworking?"

"Diligence is not a damn reason. My parents are both in China, which makes me embarrassed. Let me think about it..." Although Lin Ye is not a good person, he doesn't want to bring this role as a sweatshop so soon.

"During the Soviet Union, there is no need to say where people are used when there is not enough labor. Are there any people in Asia?" Lin Ye had no good impression of those black and green, unless the other party was also a rich man, and he could make profits.

"I think about it, of course, I used to supplement the labor force from socialist countries, and they all had contracts." Lijiya passed the allies at that time and said, "North Korea, Vietnam, etc."
