For a persistent person like Grant, even if Xiao Zhenlei doesn't pay him, as long as he takes care of the food, he will lean over and shout to find oil in vain, Xiao Zhenlei will get him done with just one meal, uh, don't get me wrong, they are not.

The next morning, Grant took the 20,000 pounds given by Xiao Zhenlei to find someone to rent equipment, and it was not possible to form a drilling team in a short time.

Xiao Zhenlei was not afraid that he would run away after giving Grant money, his home address, who was in the family, Xiao Zhenlei inquired clearly, and he couldn't run far with 20,000 pounds.

Bai Siqin, Su Gu and others in the London Stock Exchange to buy rubber stocks is quite smooth, but because of their entry, the London stock market rubber stock prices soared, although the entry of two million pounds is not qualified to sit in the bank, but can also stir up a lot of waves, a number of rubber stocks that were originally still at a low price due to their purchase and the price of several times in a very short period of time, just three days, The two million pounds in the hands of Su Gu and Bai Si novel WwW. Qin were all exchanged for various rubber stocks, and in these three days, the stock price of rubber stocks changed dramatically.

On the evening of February 25, Su Gu and Bai Siqin reported to Xiao Zhenlei about the stock acquisition, "Sir, the two million pounds you gave us have been used up, what are we going to do next?" ”

Xiao Zhenlei took two puffs of his cigar and thought for a moment before asking, "What is the stock price of each rubber stock now?" ”

"Overall, London rubber stocks aren't as crazy as Shanghai's, but from the time we entered the market until the end of this afternoon's close. The stock price of the three rubber stocks we bought has more than tripled, and the stock prices of the other stocks have also risen somewhat, but the upward momentum is not as fierce as the three stocks! ”

There is no such thing as a securities commission that manages the stock market. There is also nothing such as a limit to the price increase of the stock price, in this day and age. As long as you have enough capital, you can make the stock price rise tenfold in a single day.

"Is it more than twice as high?". Xiao Zhenlei asked, and then without waiting for Su Gu to answer, he said: "It seems that there is no one sitting in the rubber stock market in London, if someone sits in the bank, it is impossible for the banker to let these stock prices rise several times in three days, which is not in the interests of the banker, since there is no one to sit in the bank, then let's sit in the bank." In this way, as soon as the market opens tomorrow morning, you will immediately sell some of the shares one after another, and temporarily let the stock prices of these three rubber stocks fall back a little! ”

Bai Siqin nodded and asked, "Then what price will these three stock prices fall to?" ”

Xiao Zhenlei thought for a while and ordered: "It's okay to be twice as high as the initial stock price, if the stock price of these stocks soars all the way, if there is something to do, it is easy to cause a crash, and now the stock price of rubber stocks in Shanghai has been high." It goes up every day, it looks dangerous, but it's actually safe, because no one knows better than me what the state of mind is for people who want to get rich and go crazy. Since it's okay to even go to the beach, we can't let London collapse first, it's better to be steady! ”

Bai Siqin and Su Gu agreed at the same time: "Okay." We'll do it early tomorrow morning and suppress the stock price first! ”

On the morning of February 26. After Bai Siqin, Su Gu and others went to the stock exchange, Xiao Zhenlei received a call from Williams from Dorsetshire. This is good news, Williams and Opiyin have bought all the large pieces of land from the hands of those six people, although it is thirty percent more than the estimated price, but it is also very worthwhile, a total of 130,000 pounds was spent, and all the procedures for the transfer of land ownership have been completed, this news made Xiao Zhenlei extremely excited, the land purchase solved the most critical step, and the remaining thing was to wait for Grant to form the drilling team.

In recent years, there have been a lot of exploration teams and drilling teams, especially in countries such as Britain, France, the United States and Germany, these powers are looking for minerals and oil all over the world, as long as they determine where there are minerals and oil, they will try their best to take possession of them, but there are not many that can really be found, most of them are in vain, not only lose money, people are also tired, so there are many exploration teams and drilling teams that are idle at home. Grant easily found a drilling team, and this drilling team was still his old friend, the leader of the drilling team was named Massimo, and he had been friends with Grant for more than ten years.

Xiao Zhenlei was about to go to Grant, but Grant came first, he brought a strong man in a thick gray cloth jacket, and introduced: "Boss, this is the drilling team leader Massimo I am looking for, he has been drilling for more than ten years, he has rich experience, and the equipment in his hand is also very complete, I think there should be no problem, if you don't object, boss, it's him!" ”

Massimo is a taciturn Englishman in his forties, tall, with obvious traces of time on his face, he nodded to Xiao Zhenlei, obviously not very surprised that Xiao Zhenlei, the boss, is a Chinese, it seems that Grant introduced him in advance.

Xiao Zhenlei stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Welcome, Mr. Massimo, I hope we will cooperate happily!" ”

Massimo didn't expect Xiao Zhenlei, a Chinese, to be so different, and even shake hands with people, he stretched out his rough hand to shake hands with Xiao Zhenlei and said, "Happy cooperation!" ”

After inviting the two to sit down, Xiao Zhenlei took out two packs of cigarettes and threw a pack to each of them, Massimo took it and looked at it, with a smile on his face.

"What do you drink? Red wine, coffee, or tea? Xiao Zhenlei asked again.

Grant said: "Come to a glass of red wine, I wish us a smooth drilling and oil!" ”

"Good!" Xiao Zhenlei poured three glasses of red wine, gave each of them a glass, walked to the sofa opposite the two of them and sat down with the wine glasses and said: "Okay, gentlemen, now our team is also ready, just now my people also called me and told me that the ownership of that piece of land is already mine, and we can drill at any time!" ”

Grant excitedly said, "Boss, our passports are ready, when will we leave?" ”

Xiao Zhenlei was surprised: "Passport? What do you need a passport for? The drilling site is in Dorset, England, and no passport is required! ”

"What? In Dorset? This, this is impossible, I have traveled all over the British Isles over the years, but I have not found any oil fields, if there is oil in Dorset, England, I can't not know! When Grant heard Xiao Zhenlei say that the land was in Dorset, England, his heart suddenly cooled.

Xiao Zhenlei waved his hand and smiled: "Mr. Grant, don't worry, now that we have all the men and horses and the land has been bought, whether there is oil or not, I think you should take your team on a trip, right?" ”

Grant thought about it, no matter what, he had to go and have a look, otherwise he was really unwilling, so he nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll leave tomorrow!" ”

After speaking, he turned his head to Massimo and said: "Massimo, you go back and immediately book a train ticket to Dorset, bring your people to transport all the equipment over, anyway, there is a boss to pay, whether there is oil or not, we will go to drill wells to try, maybe we can really drill oil?" ”

Massimo nodded: "OK, there is absolutely no problem on my side!" ”

The next morning, Xiao Zhenlei drove to Dorset with Grant, and Massimo took the drilling team members to carry the equipment onto the train and transport it to Dorsetshire.

"God, how did I not think there would be oil in this place? Damn it, this black substance floating in the gutter, I bet it's absolutely oil, absolutely! Grant came to the meadow and began to scream nervously.

Xiao Zhenlei walked over and asked, "Mr. Grant, can you confirm it?" How big is the area of the land that contains oil? ”

Grant got up and said: "I have just explored, this oil field is very large, but the land only occupies a part, and a large part is in the offshore zone, but with the current level of technology, it is impossible to drill and exploit on the sea, so, Mr. Xiao, your land has become the only land to be mined, I want to say that you are going to make a fortune, I dare to guarantee that oil can definitely be extracted here, and drilling does not need to be too deep to produce oil, but once the oil is produced, because it is close to the coastline, it is easy to pollute the environment, Therefore, it is best to consider various factors before exploiting, but we can drill a well first to make sure, and if there is oil, we will immediately plug the oil outlet to prevent too much oil from spewing out and polluting the environment! ”

After the discovery of this oil field in later generations, it took six years to officially extract the oil, which is that the British authorities took into account that casual mining may cause environmental pollution, so they did all the work before mining, this process took six years, but Xiao Zhenlei didn't care about this, even if it caused pollution, it had nothing to do with him, his purpose was just to let the oil erupt as soon as possible, so that those oil tycoons could come to the door, and then bargain with those tycoons.

Grant was very prepared to find the location of the drill rig, this guy was really oil, worthy of a professional, and he asked Massimo's drilling team to drill exactly the same location as a later oil well.

After four days of drilling tower, Massimo's drilling machine qì made a deep distance down and finally had good news, this afternoon, Xiao Zhenlei just got up from a nap in the shed, he heard the drilling team's machine qì stop roaring, and those drillers shouted one by one, he ran out of the shed to see, my God, only to see a black fountain spewing upwards dozens of meters high.

"Oil, oil, oil!"

Agent Ah Bing ran over and said, "Sir, it's oil, it's oil!" ”

Xiao Zhenlei secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said to Ah Bing: "Let's go, let's go over and have a look!" (To be continued......)
