Chapter 44: Everett. Plum. Degau Lil
Although the whole of Tampico is already owned, owning the land is only the first step.
The second step is how to find oil in the ground of Tampico. Pearson had been looking for a few years in Tampico, but had only mined a few wells that could not self-spew and the oil quality was quite poor, and Yan Guang did not think that he could drill oil by just finding a place to drill it.
For this reason, Yan Guang made a special trip to Mexico City, and hired a group of experts and oil workers from there to return.
Although these experts were a little suspicious of being picked on, in order to be worthy of Yan Guang's salary, they quickly found a position worth drilling for Yan Guang in Tampico, but a few days later...
"This is the so-called inferior crude oil, right?" Looking at the oil in the oil drum, Yan Guang actually smiled at several experts.
Yan Guang had been mentally prepared for this, so although the first drill was unsuccessful, Yan Guang did not feel lost.
In any case, if you can drill oil, it means that there is oil in the ground in Tampico, and as long as there is oil, it will be easy to do.
Seeing that the boss was not angry, several experts arrived to put a little snack, and then they chose a few positions for Yan Guang, but all the drilled in these positions were the same as the first oil well, all of which were inferior crude oil, and there was no need to hope for self-spraying.
And this low-quality crude oil can only be used as asphalt paving, but in Mexico, Dohanni's Petroleos Mexicanos has done it, in other words, Yan Guang has not even made a penny so far.
At this time, Yan Guang finally understood why Pearson wanted to commit suicide, sitting in the office every day and watching all kinds of expenses just don't come in, Yan Guang has only been sitting for two months, Pearson has been sitting for four years...
In the past two months, because Yan Guang would return to Mexico City every half a month to send a telegram to Song Dinghan to report his safety, soon explorers all over Mexico knew that a Chinese businessman named Yan Guang had bought Pearson's land with only inferior crude oil.
Now Yan Guang, a Chinese, has become a laughing stock in the mouths of Mexican prospectors. At the same time, he and the land he owned became a popular joke among prospectors.
Of course, while telling this joke, these explorers also came to a consensus that Tampico did not have large oil fields, and that Mr. Pearson was a lucky one because he found a Chinese to be his substitute...
Every now and then, Mr. Pearson has a happy smile on his face because he has settled all his debts.
A month later, there were several more wells on Tampico's land, and of course these wells, like the previous ones, were useless wells.
By this time, Yan Guang had become irritable even though he was convinced that there was oil under Tampico's land.
Yes, Yan Guang has always believed that there is a lot of oil in Tampico, but if it can't be extracted, or if it can't be found, then it means that there is none.
And it's already 1910, and in a year it is the time when the Baolu Movement broke out, and in the next half a year, it is the Wuchang Uprising...
If the oil is only explored at that time, what is the use of Yan Guang finding the oil under Tampico? It's impossible to buy all the people in Sichuan with money, right?
"Why can't there be no oil..."Looking at a lonely oil well outside the window, Yan Guang sighed again.

Looking at Yan Guang's face, which was obviously much thinner than when he came, Wang Er was also a little anxious.
Although Wang Er couldn't understand the words of those foreign experts in the past few months, he could still see the expressions of shaking his head, sighing and frustration very clearly, and Yan Guangping's words also made Wang Er understand the current predicament.
Although Yan Guang caused Wang Er's five brothers to hang up a year ago, even he himself was shot, which made Wang Er's heart have some nostalgia from beginning to end. But during the time that Wang Er was working under Yan Guang, Yan Guang always treated Wang Er as his own person, and never hid anything from him, and even asked Mr. to teach him to study...
Gradually, Wang Er got used to his current identity.
Although Wang Er can't do it to the point of dying as a confidant, he really wants to relieve Yan Guang's worries.
It's just that when he was studying in Sichuan, although Wang Er also read some books, there was no way to help Yan Guang find oil in those books, so Wang Er could only do it here in a hurry.
At this moment, the voice of a bodyguard suddenly came from outside.
"Boss."
"What's the matter?"
"Those experts are here, saying they have something to see you!" There was a sense of disdain in the words.
By now, the No. 30 people brought by Yan Guang have completely regarded those experts as cheating money.
And those experts, although they have not drilled high-yield oil wells until now, they do not feel guilty at all, because the fact that there is no large oil field under Tampico has spread throughout Mexico, and in their opinion, it is good to be able to find it, and if they can't find it, they can't blame them, because Tampico really doesn't have a large oil field, and they can't make something out of nothing.
And as Caucasians, when facing Yan Guang, the yellow boss, these experts always have a faint sense of superiority, so although they don't have any achievements, they are also at ease with Yan Guang's salary.
However, they did have something to do when they came to Yan Guang today.
"Mr. Yan, this is Mr. De Gorier." After walking in with a young man, one of the experts explained.
"Hello, Mr. Yan." This young man named De Goriel did not have the same sense of superiority as several other experts, and said politely when he saw Yan Guang.
"Hello, is there anything wrong?" Looking at the young man in front of him, Yan Guang was a little confused.
At this time, the expert just now stood up and introduced again.
"Mr. De Gollier, a geology student at the University of Oklahoma and a petroleum geological prospector, is here to work for Mr. Yan's company," said the expert, who took two steps forward. Mr. de Goreier has a letter of recommendation from the Director of the Federal Geological Survey..."
"Oh?" Yan Guang glanced at De Goril with some curiosity. "I don't know what made Mr. De Goorier want to work in my company?" Yan Guang knew that he had become the laughing stock of the entire Mexican oil prospector.
De Goriel said with some uncertainty. "I've been to Tampico once and think there's a lot of oil underground..."
Hearing this, the experts pouted, in fact, when they heard this reason, they all thought that this young man was crazy, because the lack of large oil fields in Tampico was almost the end of the matter in all of Mexico. It's just that since this guy has a letter of recommendation from the director of the Federal Geological Survey, they are happy to introduce it.
However, Yan Guang stood up all of a sudden. "Do you really think so?"
"Of course." His full name is Everett. Plum. The young man of De Goril thought for a moment and said affirmatively. "I'm sure there's oil here."
