With ten wells drilling far away from each other drilling oil at the same time within a week, not only Li Mo, but even Du Dazhuang, this guy, knew that they had succeeded!

Thomas, this guy was even more unbearable, lying on the ground, directly hugged the young master Li's still slender thighs, and asked to learn what kind of spell, for this, he would rather give up one percent of the shares!

Per cent!

It's a shame that this guy really wanted to come out, not only was he stingy to get home, but he was also shameless, and the angry Young Master Li kicked him away directly.

"Yuanshou, Zhang Shun, the two of you immediately contact all the newspapers you can find and tell them that a huge oil well has been discovered here, with reserves of 500 million tons! Arrange for reporters to come here to shoot on the spot, and if you don't want to come, you can stuff money for them to come! ”

"Five hundred million?" Chen Ping opened his mouth, but nodded in response: "Yes!" ”

"Da Zhuang, you take someone to watch the drilling, and let those technicians test the thickness of the oil layer first!"

Although he didn't know what the oil layer was, the young master's words were orders, Du Dazhuang shouted and rushed out of the room.

Seeing Zhang Shun, Chen Ping and Du Dazhuang ran out one after another, and Thomas also understood that Li Mo was arranging a task, so he hurriedly rushed to the front, pointed to his nose and said, "Li, and me!" What do I do now? ”

Thomas has been completely conquered by Li Mo, from looking for a big gold mine to now discovering oil, this young terrible boy just scratched his finger on the map a few times, God, this thing called magic is really amazing, what a magical country!

Looking at Thomas, whose hair was messed up like straw with an eager face, Li Mo laughed: "Dear Thomas, don't you think you should go take a shower now, and then go to get a haircut and buy a few decent clothes?" ”

Thomas had black lines on his head and a black face: "Lee, if you think I'm in the way here, just say it, don't play me anymore, okay!" ”

"Trick you? Haha" Li Mo laughed and said: "Look at your appearance, if you are asked to contact Rockefeller now, what will he think of you?" Is it a beggar? Or porters! ”

After listening to Li Mo's words, Thomas's eyes lit up, and he looked at himself again, these words were sleepless, and he was indeed a little sloppy, so he hurriedly said: "I know, I'll go take a bath now!" ”

"Remember! Take a shower and don't forget to contact Standard Oil. Looking at Thomas's back, Li Mo shouted.

"Got it!" Thomas doesn't look back,

"You know what? Big oil fields discovered in East Texas! ”

"Yes, it's a miracle! A miracle of 3.5 billion barrels! ”

"East Texas, where miracles are born!"

"Thomas Mining, discovered the largest oil field in the United States!"

As newspapers spread from person to person, in just a week, everyone from Wall Street to remote West mines, from the bustling cities of the Atlantic coast to the fledgling small towns of the West, everyone was talking about the discovery.

And the photo of Thomas standing next to the oil well, pointing to the black liquid flowing from the wellhead, also made him the most eye-catching figure in the United States.

Countless journalists, countless businessmen ready to get a piece of the pie, and those Wall Street bankers like hounds almost trampled this little office to the ground, and many of them even rushed straight into the oil fields, hoping to see this great discovery with their own eyes!

Chen Ping and Li Mo stood behind the hidden door, watching Thomas talk to reporters, looking at the dazzling light in the room, and showing knowing smiles.

The campaign was successful, but the most important people from Rockefeller Standard Oil unexpectedly did not show up, as if they had not seen the news!

With such big news, would Rockefeller not know about it? It's impossible! Because now even a child will know that in East Texas, a large oil field has been discovered.

"Young Master? Could it be that the propaganda is too much? Scare the Rockefeller out of coming? Thinking of the somewhat astonishing hundreds of millions of tons of reserves that Li Mo let them spread, Chen Ping was a little worried.

"Not coming? Is this possible! The corners of Li Mo's mouth rose slightly, frowned, and suddenly asked: "Yuanshou, if you are Rockefeller and heard that there is a super oil field here, but you master the most important refining and processing link in the oil industry, and almost strangle the throat of the oil field, then what will you do?" ”

Chen Ping thought for a while: "I will first send someone to check whether there are such large reserves, and at the same time send someone to contact Thomas to find out his psychological price, but at this time it is obviously not worth taking action immediately, because at this moment the oil field is on the cusp of the wave, they will feel that now the price, Thomas will definitely open his mouth, not to mention that after mastering the processing link, so much and so on is also possible!" ”

Li Mo nodded and asked rhetorically, "Don't you think that's the case now?" Isn't there a lot more people visiting oil wells these days? ”

Chen Ping suddenly understood, and his eyebrows furrowed: "Young Master, do you want to restrict them?" ”

Li Mo smiled and shook his head: "No need, the restriction will make people think that we have ghosts, since they want to see it, you might as well let them see it generously, you go and tell Thomas, let him pretend that he has no intention of leaking his mouth, saying that Morgan and other big companies are interested here, and also sent someone to check it out, and at the same time let Thomas increase his efforts to order mining equipment, and at the same time let out the wind, just say that he is also ready to order oil refining equipment from the United Kingdom!" ”

"Yes." Chen Ping quickly understood what Li Mo meant, since Rockefeller wanted to delay, then force them out and not give them a little time!

Sure enough, as Thomas continued to release that there were large companies to cooperate with, and publicly announced to the media that he would order a large number of oil refining equipment from the United Kingdom, Rockefeller finally couldn't sit still.

Because Rockefeller knew that if Thomas really did this, and the East Texas oil reserves did not lie, then with the support of the British political axe, an organization comparable to his own oil trust would soon appear, in that case, it would be a catastrophe for him, and the United States at this time had not yet rejected the strength of Britain, even if he could invite the political axe to come forward, I am afraid it would not help.

Therefore, under his personal intervention, Standard Oil, which originally thought that he had mastered the oil processing process and had enough patience to consume, and could even wait for several years to send negotiators overnight.

Finally, when this day came, when Thomas and Chen Pingping, who appeared at the negotiating table as Thomas's assistant, faced this huge oil trust, they found that the chips in their hands were so small that the arrogant Standard Oil negotiators only offered a harsh offer of five million dollars for a full takeover.

Five million dollars? Isn't this playing with people?!

"Five million, that's the final price!" Chen Ping sighed, he was still a little uncomfortable with participating in this kind of business negotiation for the first time, but this kind of battle, which was not a battlefield duel at all, made him feel very excited, but this time, he had a little less chips in his hand.

"Li, it's better for us to do it ourselves, I believe that we only need to pay half of the shares at most, and all this oil will be ours!" Thomas shouted fiercely, according to his meaning, it is better to do a fake show, pay a part of the shares, and let him go out to Britain to borrow money from the British political axe to establish his own oil trust.

But Li Mo quickly vetoed Thomas's suggestion, although he also knew that the United States was not capable of calling the British Empire at this time, but with the passage of time, the Americans would sooner or later catch up with the aging Britain, and it was obviously not a good idea to directly confront a super chaebol that could influence the direction of the political axe policy, not to mention that this is still the opponent's home field!

Looking at the people who were a little depressed and a little impatient, Li Mo was a lot more relaxed: "What's the matter, you're in a hurry?" It's just a Rockefeller, and it pushes you to this point, what if you meet someone more powerful than him in the future, or directly face the state organization? Do you just give up easily? ”

"But we don't have any leverage!" Thomas spread his hands, a little frustrated.

"No, there's a chip." A cold light flashed in Li Mo's slightly narrowed eyes: "Thomas, you immediately write a letter to the queen, saying that you want to give this super oil field to her as a gift!" ”

"What!" Thomas trembled and jumped up excitedly, even Chen Ping looked puzzled, and looked at Li Mo suspiciously.

"Don't get excited, it's not true." Li Mo motioned for Thomas to sit down before continuing: "After writing, give the letter to a Rockefeller man and tell them that if there is no result within ten days, then the letter will be sent immediately, and if we can't get it, then we would rather send it to the queen than accept such a low-level insult." ”

Thomas's eyes darkened when he heard Li Mo's words, this bastard, the devil, actually used the queen to threaten his opponent, if he really did this, would the Admiralty drive warships all over the world to hunt down him?

However, Thomas also thinks this is a good idea, after all, the queen is not a British political axe, and even if the president of the United States comes forward, he can't stop the oil field as a raw gift.

Sure enough, during the negotiations the next day, Thomas showed the rigidity, stubbornness, and even arrogance of a citizen of the British Empire, and when he finally showed the letter he was about to give to the Queen, everyone was stunned, especially when the contents of the letter reached Rockefeller's ears, and he even used to swear words.

Although he also knew that it was a ploy of Thomas, he did not dare to gamble it, quite simply, because those damned Englishmen had such a tradition, as evidenced by Captain Drake in 1573, who actually gave all the wealth he had acquired in his life to the Queen of England and received a title of nobility.

And what makes him even more troublesome is that the Queen of England does not fully represent the British political axe, if she gets the oil fields, and Thomas does not lie about the oil reserves, then even if he can invite the American political axe to come forward, he cannot prevent the Queen of England from dealing with his private property, in that case, it will cause war!

This damn British!

Under Rockefeller's curses, the negotiations began again, and this time the stubborn and dull Englishman Thomas turned into a cunning Jewish businessman, little by little from the pockets of Standard Oil with the benefits that had already been swallowed by them.

Eventually, after three weeks of difficult negotiations, Standard Oil agreed to pay $30 million at once to buy a stake in the East Texas oil field, and at the same time, they and Thomas Mining Company would form East Texas Oil.

In order to show good faith, Standard Oil will transfer the cash to the account designated by Thomas within 10 days, and in order to ensure that the oil reserves are artificially exaggerated, Standard Oil will send a large exploration team to calculate the oil reserves in the fastest possible time, and stipulate that if the final reserves are less than 1.5 billion barrels, or about 220 million tons, the shares held by Thomas Mining will automatically go to Rockefeller.

Of course, for the last one, Thomas was originally opposed, but was stopped by Li Mo, because Li Mo believed that the reserves here would never be less than 300 million tons, although he didn't know where Li Mo's confidence came from, but Thomas, who had already seen his kind of magical golden finger technique, finally believed him. What's more, it was already a remarkable achievement for him to be able to dig out forty percent of the shares from Rockefeller's mouth.

Seven days later, when the 30 million US dollars were transferred to the account designated by Thomas, which was also in Li Mo's private small treasury, everyone jumped up, looking at Master Li, who was surrounded by everyone and almost strangled to death without being hugged, everyone was like a dream, as if the past few months had been a dream.

And Li Mo also realized his wish to multiply his funds dozens of times in a short period of time in the stunned and even frightened eyes of everyone, and truly became the leader of this group of people.
