Chapter Twenty-Eight: Torment

Hitler took people away, but Angela and Vivien stayed, and when they were really in the same room with their own people, Zhuo Fei found out that Angela actually brought Zhuo Yan to Germany. "Brother, I won't leave you this time." Seeing Zhuo Fei again, Zhuo Yan, whose body had become even stronger, was full of water vapor, and first hugged Zhuo Fei tightly, and then never left Zhuo Fei's side again.

Angela and Vivian already knew about Hansen from Huffman's mouth, and although everyone had shared joys and sorrows when they were in Nanjing, Angela and Vivien were somewhat displeased with Hansen's betrayal of Zhuo Fei. "Don't blame Hansen, the interests of the entire family have been imposed on him, and if you are the first of you, you may make the same choice as him." Angela and Vivian were obviously not good-looking, so Zhuo Fei took the initiative to defend Hansen.

"Boss, you can't do this." As the president of Blackwater Oil, Vivian already had a bit of momentum, and looked at Zhuo Fei with a straight face. "The true value of penicillin is immeasurable, and if the Germans had agreed to build factories in other European countries to produce penicillin, the annual licensing costs for Bayer and Hansen's family from these plants would have been astronomical. Hansen's family made a good calculation to get half of the equity of penicillin for only 10 million marks, which is simply unfair. ”

"Yes, boss, you are too indulgent of Mr. Hansen and his family." Angela also said, "Although we don't know what Mr. Hansen thinks, it is difficult for me to understand Mr. Hansen's behavior, and the responsibility of the family cannot be the reason for him to betray the boss. If it was for the sake of the family, he should not continue to accept the employment of the boss when he was on the ship. ”

Vivien and Angela's words did not embarrass Zhuo Fei, on the contrary, he is now a little glad that he sent Vivian and Angela to Mexico to explore for oil, so that in time, the two of them will definitely become his good helpers. Coughing lightly, Zhuo Fei also straightened his face, "Okay, let's not talk about Hansen's matter, I recruited you from Mexico to Germany, and I am going to use your exploration team to explore oil in Germany, as long as we do this well, the benefits we can obtain far outweigh the dividends from controlling penicillin." ”

Previously, Vivian and Zhuo Fei had already had a debate with a telegram about whether they could find oil in Germany, and Vivian thought that Zhuo Fei was working in vain, but Zhuo Fei insisted that there was oil in Germany. Vivian and Angela are the current president and executive manager of Blackwater Oil, but the two of them only own only 20% of the shares of Blackwater Oil, except for the 10% shares allocated to Andy, the remaining 70% of the shares of Blackwater Oil are all in the hands of Zhuo Fei, Zhuo Fei, who is the actual boss of Blackwater Oil, said so, and Vivian and Angela can only do so.

Seeing that Vivian and Angela did not have any objections to their words, Zhuo Fei immediately took out a map of Germany and spread it out on the table, pointed to the dozen or so red circles that had been marked on the map and said, "These places are areas where oil may exist, the exploration team you brought from Mexico will receive help from the German government and military, and you don't have to worry about other things, you only need to be responsible for oil exploration, and all the rest will be handled by the German government." ”

After Wei Wei An and Angela looked at the map on the table, the two of them got together and talked quietly, and it was about a few minutes before Vivien asked Zhuo Fei a question. "Boss, these places marked on the map are only approximate locations, and the specific exploration work will take time and energy. We brought back from Mexico just over 50 exploration experts and workers, and if we had explored all the locations on this map, we wouldn't have been able to complete it in a few years. ”

"Moreover, oil exploration is not a simple matter, we need not only oil exploration equipment, but also other materials such as vehicles, auxiliary tools and so on, and if we are in the field, we need to multiply the supplies. The main problem is that we bring in too few exploration workers, and if the workload is too large, the ones we bring from Mexico may not be able to hold on. ”

"Helping the German government to explore for oil is the most crucial point of my whole plan, and if I don't find oil as soon as possible, I will lose Hitler's trust in me." Zhuo Fei was not surprised by the questions raised by Vivien and Angela, and immediately nodded and replied. "Hitler had promised that the government would send geologists and scholars to help us, and the German government would coordinate with the German government for the shortage of oil in Blackwater. This has become a government action, so what you are worried about will not be a problem. ”

Hearing that this has become a government action, Vivian and Angela are excited, but they have new worries. "Boss, what if we can't find oil? We have repeatedly argued this before we set out from Mexico, and almost all of Blackwater's oil experts do not believe that oil will be found in Germany. Boss, if we can't find oil, the German government might turn a pry on us. ”

Zhuo Fei laughed, stretched out his hand and knocked on the map full of red circles on the table, "This map was obtained by me from a secret agency in the United States at a great price. After the end of World War I, the Americans took advantage of the fact that Germany was under sanctions and quietly carried out large-scale exploration activities in the name of Britain and France. The small red circles on the map are the areas that the Americans have explored, and the Americans are 100% sure that the oil exists in these places. ”

"Boss, could this map be fake? If the Americans knew that there was oil on German soil, then why didn't they exploit it? Angela asked, and Vivien nodded repeatedly, both of them having such questions in their hearts.

"It is impossible for the Americans to extract the oil in these places" Zhuo Fei nodded at the two of them with great certainty, "The Americans can only be sure that this oil exists in these places, but unfortunately the technology and technology of the Americans to explore oil at that time could not reach the depth of actual exploration, so they could only block the news and temporarily seal this matter as a secret." I know this, and it is also a very fortuitous coincidence, when I got this map, there was a thick layer of dust on the map, and I think the US government has forgotten about it. ”

Zhuo Fei couldn't explain the origin of this map, so he could only push it to the so-called US government secret department again, although Vivian and Angela still had doubts in their hearts, but they thought about it again and again, and seemed to feel that Zhuo Fei's explanation also had some truth. In the next few days, Vivien and Angela gathered the exploration experts they had brought from Mexico to the estate, and together with the geologists sent by the German government, they demonstrated the areas circled in red on the map.

Hitler did not come to the manor again, but there were many more soldiers in SS uniforms, some of whom were preoccupied with watching the daily training of the 30 veterans, while others consciously took on the duty of guarding the manor. "Don't worry about them, we're still in Germany, some things are unavoidable, just get used to it." In the face of the uneasiness shown by Vivian, Angela and others, Zhuo Fei showed calmness.

As time passed, the exploration experts brought by Vivian and Angela also began to go deep into various parts of Germany in groups to carry out secret exploration activities, and with the assistance of the German government and military, Zhuo Fei did not have to worry about things leaking out. "Boss, the news sent back by the exploration team is not optimistic, and the several explorations carried out now have been proven to be failures. Although the German government has not yet made a clear statement, there has been a telegram from our people in the exploration team saying that there is already a shortage of some of the materials needed by the exploration team. ”

The shortage of materials needed by the expedition team indicates that there is a problem with the logistical supply, and it is the German government and military that are responsible for the logistical supply. Although Zhuo Fei looks very leisurely these days, he has always been nervous in his heart, if he can't explore oil in Germany, he will lose Hitler's trust, and all the foreshadowing he has done before will be in vain.

But Zhuo Fei is the maker of the entire plan, and when everyone is panicking, Zhuo Fei, who is the planner, cannot panic. "Don't worry, when you go to Mexico, it won't take a month to find oil? If oil in Germany was so easy to find, the British would have told the people of the exploration team that oil would have been dug everywhere in Germany and that if they worked hard, oil would definitely be found. ”

Zhuo Fei said these words not only to Vivian and Angela, but also to the SS officers who monitored him, and at the same time that Vivian sent a telegram to the exploration team, Zhuo Fei's words were also recorded on paper and sent to Hitler's hands. "Our little friend is right, we have to be a little patient, if oil is so easy to find, the British and French may have been extracting oil in our country long ago."

Hitler's trust in Zhuo Fei made the logistics supply of the exploration team return to normal, Zhuo Fei laughed for a while when he learned about this, and then left everything behind, just taking Zhuo Yan and those veterans to the training ground every day. A few days later, Andy was sent to the estate, saying that United Pharmaceuticals had signed a contract with Bayer, that the penicillin plant in the United States had been built, and that in two months, penicillin produced in the United States would be available for sale.
