Chapter 12: Earn Him a Fortune
Guo Yu, who returned to modern times, returned home to visit his parents and son, stayed at home for two days to accompany his family, and felt a lot better, in fact, why should he be in a hurry, he has an invincible cheat, he has countless time, he wants to enjoy life, and there is no need to worry about making money now.
He called Zhang Chong and told him that he was going to go to the company to have a look, so he drove to the capital. Looking at the tens of thousands of yuan car I bought when I got married, I sighed for a while, you should also retire. I slipped around the automobile city first, and finally fell in love with Cayenne, no nonsense, I bought it directly, the car dealership all arranged for the license, and after three days, I took the brand, and the old car was handed over to them for direct processing, Guo Yu drove straight to the company.
"Huafu Auction House" on the tenth floor of the office building, Guo Yu's elevator stopped on the tenth floor, the elevator door opened, and found that there were two rows of people standing on both sides of the company's door.
"What kind of play are you kid playing?" Guo Yu was in his office and scolded Zhang Chong with a smile.
"It's the first time you come, you must let the employees know who you are, and let them know who the boss is, so that they can be in awe in their hearts, so that they can be managed in the future, and besides, let your kid be cool, buddy is interesting enough." Zhang Chongdao.
"Good buddy, that's interesting, by the way, how is your auction arranged?"
"I was about to tell you, arranged on October 18th, or Christie's in Hong Kong, there are still 20 days, then you can go together, I will contact you about immigration, if you buy a house or open a company there, it is very convenient for immigration, what kind of house do you plan to want."
"I want a mansion in the middle of the levels."
"Damn, you're crazy, a mansion in the middle of the mountain, it costs hundreds of millions, where did you get so much money." Zhang Chong's eyes widened.
"There will be in the future, ideal, hehe, by the way, what about my secretary?"
"You can't come twice a year, how can you be matched with a secretary, and when you get to Hong Kong, you will be matched, by the way, will you participate in the auction?"
"I won't participate in the auction, I'm going to work hard to find antiques for you, I'll leave the formalities for you today, and when the Hong Kong company opens, you can directly apply for immigration for me." Guo Yu thought for a while and said.
Then Guo Yu met with the heads of several departments of the company in the company's conference room, and had a short meeting, Guo Yu had already handed over the company to Zhang Chong to take care of, and he did not plan to point fingers at the management, so he just encouraged everyone a few words, and did not arrange the company's specific business.
In the evening, he took the whole company to eat and sing together, and he felt that he was about to be weathered by the wind and sand of New Mexico in the United States in 1914, and he needed to find himself in the modern city.
The last few young people went to the bar to continue shopping, although Guo Yu is no longer young, but he needs to relax himself, drinking and dancing, the noisy stage, the shouting crowd, and finally feeling confused, he and a beautiful woman went to the hotel, and they had a night of excitement, but the next day they got up except for a headache, and they didn't remember anything, but they found that the thousands of yuan in cash in their wallets were gone.
After Guo Yu finished licensing the car, he had a whim, bought a jeep and a heavy truck, and an RV, he planned to throw it into the space, in case he could use it one day, and equip the RV with all the things, food and drink were full, enough for a family of three to eat for a month, anyway, it can't be broken in the space.
Back in the United States in 1914, riding a horse every day, riding Hu Yunyuan and Lisa, Xiao Ni was still young and could not ride for the time being, and the small days became beautiful again, although the weather in New Mexico was still so bad, and the wind and sand were still very strong.
"Hey, boss, it's oil, it's oil, you're going to get rich." Harder rushed into Guo Yu's room and shouted loudly, the dust was already stained with Harder's beard, because Harder was not as tidy as before when he was digging a well outside. But he was now smiling, a hundred times more energetic than the previous two times.
Harder reported the situation of the oil well, yesterday evening, when the third well was drilled to a depth of 1,200 meters, the oil finally came out, it was still a self-blowing well, the oil quality was very good, and now the workers have sealed the oil well, just waiting for the boss's next order.
"Al took people to New York and told Mobil about the situation, and they said that I had dug oil wells and that I was going to sell the fields to Mobil and ask their surveyors to estimate the oil reserves. Harder, you go and get all our team members back, they should have a good time, give them a bonus of five hundred dollars each, let them come back to take a shower, go to the bar for a drink, and find a beautiful girl by the way, but tell them not to spread the news of oil everywhere for the time being, although we are not afraid, but in order to avoid trouble, tell them that they will have a bonus after the oil well is sold. After Guo Yu calmed down his excitement, he ordered everyone.
The well-digging boys returned, and they took over the best bar in the small city, and each of them put a girl in their arms, and let off the bitterness of these two months. In fact, Guo Yu's well drilling speed is much faster than others, and it always takes more than a month for others to know the results of a well, and he only needs half a month, after all, the equipment he purchased is more advanced.
Mobil also moves quickly, after all, self-blowout wells often mean large oil fields, and even the Rockefeller family also attaches great importance to it. Not only did the surveying technicians arrive, but also Mr. Hudson, the vice president of Mobil, who was the guy who bought and sold drilling equipment technology with Guo Yu last time. The two are also old friends, Guo Yu invited Hudson and his party to dinner in the small manor, the atmosphere was very good, and everyone was very happy.
A few days later, the number of surveyors came out, this area is definitely a large oil field, the reserves are initially estimated at 500 million barrels, which can be regarded as a large oil field, in fact, Guo Yu knows that the measured reserves of this oil field in later generations are about 800 million barrels, but after all, the current technology is backward, there is no way, even 500 million barrels is also an astronomical number.
Hudson approached Guo Yu to discuss the problem of the oil field, Guo Yu was very simple, sold it, all cash transactions, now it is only a matter of price. Hudson's job is done, because such a big deal is not up to him, and the board of directors must be convened to study it collectively, of course, Rockefeller's will is Mobil's will.
Without delay, the oil field was handed over to Harder and led people to take care of, and Guo Yu returned to New York directly with his group.
In the Rockefeller Manor, John Jr. received Guo Yu again, and this time he saw Guo Yu more enthusiastic than Guo Yu last time, after all, the contact between the two sides was very pleasant, Guo Yu also helped the old Rockefeller, and this time brought good news about the big oil field.
"Guo, you are really lucky, it seems that your god has always been with you, you have found a big oil field, and you are going to make a fortune." Little John hugged Guo Yu and said.
"You're going to make a fortune too, aren't you, John." After Guo Yu finished speaking, the two laughed.
Guo Yu just had dinner at the manor and chatted about the recent European war in full swing, and the two did not negotiate the price of the oil field, which was a matter for his subordinates. A few days later, things came to an eyebrow, and Allai reported that the price was set at $34 million, and if Guo Yu had no objection, the contract could be signed.
Now the price of oil is between $1 and $2 per barrel, and this oil field will be worth $500 million, but the account is not like this, and now Guo Yu is given 34 million, which is the result of Mobil not squeezing, and other oil companies will never give this price, after all, sometimes individuals and big consortia are unreasonable.
$34 million was definitely a lot of money in 1914, and the Rockefeller family is known as the richest man now, but the total assets are more than a billion dollars. Someone once calculated that Rockefeller's wealth in 1914 was equivalent to $200 billion in 2010, and that 34 million was equivalent to more than $6 billion.
Guo Yu did not hesitate, and two days later signed an agreement with Mobil's president, Douglas, to sell New Mexico land and oil fields to Mobil for a one-time payment of $34 million.
Guo Yu recruited the elder Harder and the well-drilling team back to New York, and he was ready to continue his plan to dig into the corners of the United States again. The destination chosen this time is California.
