Chapter 47 Oilfield
Hearing that Yan Shaoqiu was about to raise, Zhou Rui pursed his lips, "Boss Yan, I have already won 20 million silver coins in the first two games.
Even if I lose the last game, I have an income of 10 million silver coins today, so why bother raising with you! ”
Yan Shaoqiu took out a document bag from the suitcase with 2,000 gold round scrolls left with an expressionless face, "This is the intersection of the three towns of Huannan, Rongbei and Fengwu, the title deed of 24,000 square kilometers of desert, and all the property rights certificates of the three towns oilfield.
If Young Master Zhou agrees to add it, I am willing to put the entire Three Towns Oilfield, including 24,000 square kilometers of desert, for 40 million silver coins.
Coupled with the remaining 2,000 gold round scrolls with a face value of 500 gold coins in the suitcase, that is, 50 million silver coins, I don't know if Young Master Zhou dares to gamble? ”
"Three Towns Oilfield? Are you going to bet with me on the Three Towns Oilfield? Zhou Rui's face was full of shock at this time.
The Three Towns Oilfield of the Han and Tang Empires was originally created by a Tiger merchant of the Red Tiger Empire.
With the invention of the internal combustion engine, the birth of automobiles, and the use of steam turbines in warships of major orc countries, oil has become one of the most important energy sources in the world, and the price of oil has also risen in recent years.
An exploration team under the Tiger Clan merchant found that a large amount of oil was stored under the 24,000-square-kilometer desert at the intersection of the three towns of Huanan, Rongbei and Fengwu.
So the Tiger merchant finally bought the entire 24,000 square kilometers of desert after negotiations with Huannan Town, Rongbei Town, and Fengwu Town.
For this reason, the Tiger Clan merchant paid 20 million silver coins to Rongnan Town, Rongbei Town, and Fengwu Town respectively.
Later, the Tiger merchant invested heavily in the construction of oil wells in the desert, and also built a large oil refinery that could refine and process gasoline, diesel, heavy oil, lubricating oil, and asphalt, thus establishing the Three Towns Oilfield.
However, to the despair of the Tiger businessman, although most of the oil wells built were producing oil, there was not a single high-production well, and basically all of them were low-production wells with very low productivity.
More than 200 oil wells have been built, and together they produce less than 10,000 barrels of oil per day.
It can be said that the hundreds of millions of silver coins invested by the Tiger Clan businessman in the Three Towns Oilfield, although it is not a waste, but he doesn't know how young he is if he wants to get back the principal.
As a result, the Tiger merchant fell ill and died of depression because of the failure of this investment.
After the death of the Tiger merchant, his sons discussed and then decided to sell all the shares of the Three Towns Oilfield.
It's a pity that the price dropped again and again, and no one took over, and in the end, it was not until the price was reduced to 68.5 million silver coins that it was bought by the Yan family.
And Zhou Rui was shocked when he heard that Yan Shaoqiu wanted to use the Three Towns Oilfield as a bet because Zhou Rui knew that five years after the last life, the Three Towns Oilfield suddenly became a world-class oilfield.
It turns out that the current oil wells in the Sanzhen Oilfield are only drilled to 700 to 800 meters underground, which is only a poor oil layer in the Sanzhen Oilfield.
When the oil well is drilled to more than 1,000 meters, it will be found that the oil-rich layer of the Sanzhen oilfield is amazingly oil-rich.
As far as Zhou Rui knows, the proven oil reserves of the Sanzhen oilfield are as high as 120 billion barrels, and the daily oil production can reach millions of barrels.
You must know that the price of a barrel of oil has reached about 2 silver coins today, and if you calculate according to the oil reserves of the Three Towns Oilfield, it is not an exaggeration to compare the Three Towns Oilfield to a super cornucopia.
However, the husband is not guilty, and he is guilty!
A year after the announcement of the 120 billion barrels of oil reserves in the Three Towns oil field, the Red Tiger Empire and the Silver Wolf Empire suddenly joined forces to invade the western coastal areas of the Han and Tang Empires.
At this time, the Three Towns Oilfield, which has become a world-class oil field, can be said to be one of the fuses of this war.
In this war, although the coalition forces of the various feudal towns of the Han and Tang Empires severely damaged the invading armies of the two countries, the victors of this war were still the Red Tiger Empire and the Silver Wolf Empire.
The Three Towns Oilfield also ended up being the spoils of war for the Red Tiger Empire and the Silver Wolf Empire, with the Red Tiger Empire accounting for fifty-one percent of the shares and the Silver Wolf Empire accounting for forty-nine percent of the shares.
Before Zhou Rui's rebirth, the Three Towns Oilfield was still firmly controlled by the Red Tiger Empire and the Silver Wolf Empire.
To be honest, in the previous life, Zhou Rui only saw a few reports about the Three Towns Oilfield in the newspaper, and he was not too impressed by the Three Towns Oilfield at all.
If it weren't for Yan Shaoqiu mentioning the Three Towns Oilfield now, Zhou Rui wouldn't have remembered this world-class oilfield!
120 billion barrels of oil, even if a barrel of oil sells for 2 silver coins, it is an astronomical amount.
If anyone can get the Three Towns oil field, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are rich and rival the country.
Zhou Rui suddenly found that in addition to the lottery system, the memory of more than ten years in the previous life was the biggest weight in his hands!
Yan Shaoqiu shook the document bag in his hand, "Young Master Zhou, the Three Towns Oilfield was bought by our Yan family at the end of last year for 68.5 million silver coins, which also includes the title deed of 24,000 square kilometers of desert.
Now I am willing to make 40 million silver coins as the lottery for the last game, I don't know if Young Master Zhou dares to raise? ”
A burly middle-aged bodyguard beside Yan Shaoqiu couldn't help but whisper to Yan Shaoqiu at this time: "Young master, is it too much of a gamble?" ”
Yan Shaoqiu said calmly: "Lao Lu, if you don't raise the bet, I will lose this gamble after all, and now I can only gamble desperately." ”
The middle-aged bodyguard, known as Lao Lu, glanced at the last strong man beside Yan Shaoqiu who was of mixed human and cattle races, and then said to Yan Shaoqiu cautiously: "Young master, Niu Ben and Niu Heng have all been defeated, in case Niu Zhang is also ......
We're going to lose too much this time. ”
Yan Shaoqiu only pondered for a moment, and then opened his mouth to ask the last strong man beside him who was of mixed human and ox blood: "Niu Zhang, you are the best martial artist among your three brothers, can you win the last battle?" ”
Niu Zhang nodded without hesitation, "Don't worry, master, Niu Zhang will fight to win the last game!"
But my eldest brother and second brother ......."
Yan Shaoqiu said categorically: "Okay! I believe you!
Niu Ben and Niu Heng, you don't need to worry, since the other party didn't kill Niu Ben and Niu Heng on the spot, as long as you win the last game, I will pay to redeem Niu Ben and Niu Heng. ”
Zhou Rui called Xiong Si to his side at this time, "Xiong Si, I'm going to send you to the last game." ”
Xiong Si immediately patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, young general, I will definitely carry the opponent back like the eldest and second!" ”
Zhou Rui hurriedly persuaded: "Xiong Si, you can win, you don't necessarily have to capture the other party alive."
Your hand-to-hand fighting skills are the strongest of the four brothers, so look for opportunities to engage in hand-to-hand combat with your opponent whenever you can. ”
Over there, Yan Shaoqiu asked in a loud voice again: "Young Master Zhou, don't you dare to raise?" ”
Zhou Rui sneered, "Since Boss Yan is not a bet, I, Zhou Rui, am willing to accompany him, but I just don't know if Boss Yan can really represent the Yan family and regard the entire Three Towns Oilfield, including the 24,000 square kilometers of desert, as the lottery for the last game?" ”
Yan Shaoqiu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard Zhou Rui say this.
He didn't think that he would lose at all, you must know that the three brothers Niu Ben, Niu Heng, and Niu Zhang are all cultivating both physical skills and exercises, and after the three brothers are promoted, their strength far exceeds that of ordinary grandmaster warriors or bronze warriors.
The 4,000 gold scrolls lost in the first two games were the funds that the Yan family was going to use to annex the Liu family's money village.
If he didn't raise, even if Niu Zhang could win the last game, Yan Shaoqiu would lose 10 million silver coins, which Yan Shaoqiu was unwilling to accept.
Of course, 10 million silver coins, in fact, Yan Shaoqiu can still afford to lose, even if he loses 30 million silver coins, he can't shake Yan Shaoqiu's status in the Yan family now.
But over the years, only he Yan Shaoqiu has calculated others, where is there a time when others take advantage of him!
Yan Shaoqiu, who thinks highly of himself, is unwilling to admit defeat.
As for the 24,000 square kilometers of desert and the entire Three Towns oil field, in fact, the Yan family is ready to give it up.
After the Yan family took over the Three Towns Oilfield, they found that the Three Towns Oilfield was definitely a pit.
Because the Three Towns oil field is located in the desert, all the materials needed by the oil extractors and the workers of the refinery have to be brought in from outside, including fresh water.
This makes the cost of oil extraction in the Three Towns Oilfield, as well as the cost of refining and processing oil, remain high.
The production capacity of the Sanzhen Oilfield is not high, and the Yan family took over the Sanzhen Oilfield for a few months, basically losing money and making money.
What makes the Yan family even more unacceptable is that some new oil wells either do not produce oil, or the production capacity is low, which makes people collapse.
The reason why Yan Shaoqiu came to Ganyang City this time was to bring the title deed of 24,000 square kilometers of desert and all the property rights certificates of the Three Towns Oilfield.
It is because the Yan family is ready to transfer all the shares of the Three Towns Oilfield through the auctions held by the Nine Star Hotel from time to time.
In order to stop the loss, this time the Yan family has made the decision to sell the Three Towns Oilfield at a reduced price, and the starting price is only ready to be set at 40 million silver coins.
"Young Master Zhou, rest assured, the title deed of 24,000 square kilometers of desert and all the shares of the Three Towns Oilfield are now in my name.
As long as Young Master Zhou is willing to raise, we can sign a betting agreement now.
If in the last game, the warriors under Young Master Zhou can still win, the Three Towns Oilfield, including the 24,000 square kilometers of desert, and the remaining 2,000 Golden Round Scrolls in this suitcase, will all belong to Young Master Zhou. ”
