Chapter 1461: guess

Could it be said that the gap between the previous life and the present world is really so big? Then why are the locations of many large oil fields similar to those in previous lives?
　　
　　 Could it be
　　
　　 At this moment, Xiao Yunhai suddenly thought of a possibility.
　　
　　 It's not that they didn't find oil fields in the Midland Basin, but they found them but concealed them.
　　
　　 If this is the case, it would perfectly explain why Bessie’s heir wanted to buy Peikko’s shares. Unfortunately, he was a step late.
　　
　　 But such a big thing, if you want to hide it completely, you need to go up and down. For example, Stephens and Luke Ulysses should know. It is simply impossible for them not to open one eye, close one eye, and want to get through. There are also those prospectors who hit the oil, and they must also participate in it. It's just taking other people's benefits and hiding it for them.
　　
　　 Xiao Yunhai closed his eyes, tapped the table lightly with his fingers, and said in his heart: "This matter must be investigated clearly. If you are fooled by their group, then you can just find a piece of tofu and hit it to death."
　　
　　 Thinking of this, Xiao Yunhai walked out of the office and came to a corner with no people. He called Raul and asked him to ask five or six private detectives to go to Texas to find out.
　　
　　 Just walked back to the office and ran into Luke Ulysses at the door.
　　
　　 "Boss, I'll come to you to sign."
　　
　　 Xiao Yunhai was taken aback, and said: "What to sign?"
　　
Luke Ulysses handed Xiao Yunhai a letter of agreement, saying: "This is an agreement between our company and the Texas government to explore and develop desert oil in West Texas. It took us half a year and almost went everywhere. The whole place, still nothing."
　　
　　 Xiao Yunhai's heart moved and made a move in.
　　
Sitting in the boss’s chair, Xiao Yunhai looked at the agreement and deliberately said: "This environment will have oil? Who said that. Although it did appear in other parts of the world, the rate is still too small. Why do you want it? To spend such a big price to explore in West Texas?"
　　
Luke Ulysses respectfully said: "Boss, this is the conclusion of the investigation by the U.S. Geological Survey, saying that it is very likely that there are large oil fields there. Our original major shareholders got this meeting through various relationships. , I didn't expect nothing."
　　
　　 Xiao Yunhai frowned and asked, "Then what do you give me this agreement for? Isn't it half a year away?"
　　
Luke Ulysses said: "The exploration team is 100% sure that there is no oil, so wasting time there is purely unnecessary. Our previous contract with Texas lasted for one year. According to the regulations, if we can leave within half a year, You can save 500 million US dollars."
　　
Xiao Yunhai sneered: "We spent 5 billion U.S. dollars to buy the exploration and development rights, and spent a huge amount of manpower, material and financial resources. In the end, five hundred million will be left. Am I short of these five hundred million? The area is so big. They continue to explore."
　　
　　 After finishing speaking, Xiao Yunhai directly shook the agreement into a ball and threw it in the trash can, but his eyes were fixed on Luke Ulysses in front of him.
　　
　　 Luke Ulysses was shocked at first, and he even bent over to pick it up. He seemed to feel inappropriate. He quickly recovered, and then a trace of anger flashed across his face, which was fleeting.
　　
　　 Xiao Yunhai came to the conclusion that his guess is very likely to be true.
　　
　　 Otherwise, an agreement cannot make Luke Ulysses so nervous.
　　
　　 Xiao Yunhai saw the slight movement of turning his head, and his eyes immediately moved away from his face.
　　
Luke Ulysses looked up at Xiao Yunhai, calmly persuading his face: "Boss, 500 million dollars is already very much, enough for our company to spend four or five years in employee salaries. The environment there is very bad, and the exploration team is Some can’t stand it anymore. It’s just a futile effort to continue."
　　
Xiao Yunhai thought about it, nodded and said, "What you said also has some truth. Let me think about it. After all, I haven't taken too long, and such an important decision cannot be taken lightly. Wait until I find out. Let’s talk about everything about the company."
　　
　　 Luke Ulysses said: "But I am worried that half a year will be up. If we miss it, we will lose another 500 million US dollars."
　　
　　 Xiao Yunhai thought for a while, and said, "After the day, we will have a meeting to study. Damn, the U.S. Geological Bureau is too unreliable."
　　
　　 Luke Ulysses smiled and said: "If they can tell every time, then the country would have been shut down long ago, and what about our oil companies."
　　
　　 Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "That's true. It's okay, you can go out first if you have nothing to do. Contact these two days and we will get things done with the equipment quickly."
　　
　　 Luke Ulysses said: "Okay."
　　
　　 After finishing speaking, Luke Ulysses turned and walked out after taking a glance at the agreement in the trash can.
　　
　　 Xiao Yunhai has a smile on his face. If an oil field is found in Texas, Peke will soon be able to come back to life. Judging from the appearance of this Luke Ulysses, this possibility is almost 100%.
　　
　　 Just then, the office door was knocked again.
　　
　　 "Come in." Xiao Yunhai shouted.
　　
　　 The door opened, and Gadulus walked in.
　　
　　 Xiao Yunhai got up and said, "Dulles, I just want to talk to you."
　　
　　 Kadulles was also very happy to see Xiao Yunhai being so courteous to him, and said, "Boss, I'm going to report to you about our refinery."
　　
　　 Xiao Yunhai said: "Please sit down quickly, don't worry, let's talk slowly."
　　
After Cadulles sat down, Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "I just thought about the upgrading of refinery equipment you mentioned. Since we no longer have crude oil supply in that area, why not wait until there are new oil fields? A new oil refinery is built next to it. At the very least, it saves the extremely high cost of building pipelines and transporting crude oil."
　　
　　Gadules nodded and said, "Boss, I totally agree with you. However, these two factories are a bit too old. With pipelines, I'm afraid they are worth eight billion dollars at most."
　　
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "Eight billion is 8 billion. We have a new factory and new equipment. We can save it from transportation. Dulles, I have great confidence in the company. As long as we can transition After the current difficulties, success is inevitable. By the way, I want to tell you one thing. After a while, our company needs to organize an exploration team to China. The government has agreed to our private exploration of oil and gas. Once an oil field is discovered , That is owned by us. However, after finished products, like America, they can only be supplied to China."
　　
　　Gaduls said: "This is a good thing. However, the boss forgets it, he still doesn't say it, and there is gossip behind it. I really can't do this kind of thing."
　　
　　 Xiao Yunhai said: "When I first came to the company, there were many things I didn't understand. Let me talk about it. Let me just listen to ~EbookFREE.me~ and no one will know about it."
　　
　　Gadules nodded, and said, "I heard that Mr. Stephens seems to have been in close contact with Mr. Bessie's t Energy Company recently."
　　
　　 Xiao Yunhai uttered, "Let's go with him. Anyway, I have let him go home. From now on, he will only have the right to pay dividends and not the right to manage. The same is true for T Energy."
　　
　　Gaduls said: "That's good. Boss, let me tell you about the situation of other refineries. They are also not optimistic."
　　
　　 After half an hour, Gadulus left.
　　
　　 Xiao Yunhai secretly said: "This Gadulus is a talent. If he comes to work for company e, he would be a good candidate."
　　
　　 Thinking of this, Xiao Yunhai called the Human Resources Department, and the Human Resources Department sent a copy of Gadulles' work history.
　　
After reading it, Xiao Yunhai said with satisfaction: "This guy is really multifaceted. He has served as the director of the exploration department, the director of the sales department, and the director of the refinery in several oil companies. It is simply the best candidate for e. Look again. Now, if there is no problem, it is him."
