Marvel: I traveled through time a little early

Chapter 64 Alliance
George didn't have any special thoughts when he heard the news. Anyway, the gambling contract that was originally finalized was time-limited. It was not certain who would beg for who by then. The discovery of the big oil field could also make the cooperation between the two parties even better. a little tighter.After all, we have the same interests and can face many problems together.

Again, George does not have the strength to live alone, not to mention that there is another oil field. This oil field is only one of three oil fields.There is a large oil field in the Persian Gulf waiting for him overseas.

Therefore, he will definitely strictly abide by the contract with the Rockefeller family.

Through the oil field and penicillin and General Company industries, plus some shares of Standard Oil and United Steel Company exchanged from the Rockefeller family and the Morgan family, George was well integrated into the two political parties.Although both families showed their willingness to invite themselves to join the political party, George, who was not interested in it, refused directly.He only said that he would decide who to support based on the candidates in the future.

Not mentioning George's side of things, Rockefeller was even happier than George after learning the news.The decision to visit Texas was made instantly.This could be a new oil patch that, if comparable to Pennsylvania's output, would represent a significant expansion of Standard Oil's empire.

Of course, after the three companies completed the final signing and settled the penicillin matter, Rockefeller and George arrived at the exploration site as quickly as possible.

When the two arrived at the oil exploration site, they saw that the area was full of derricks.The oil workers were busy working nervously, but everything nearby was in order and there was no panic at all.There were people patrolling everywhere, which was a little different from what he imagined.

"I thought there would be many oil businessmen from all over the country coming." Sitting on a chair on a high ground, Rockefeller looked at the scene below and said to George, "The oil wells in other states are like that. Once there is news about oil, It will be overcrowded, noisy, and very lively.”

After hearing Rockefeller's words, George put his hands behind his head and leaned back slightly.He leaned back in his chair and said, "This is my private property. How could those people break in? Are my security personnel vegetarians?"

"Then we need to acquire nearby land immediately to maximize the benefits. Haha, Joe, we can do it together this time." Rockefeller said expectantly. The more land they acquire, the more shares they will occupy.

"Haha, I'm not interested. It's just luck that I found this oil field, so I don't plan to continue buying around here."

After hearing the news, Rockefeller did not force it, and directly prepared to arrange for people to acquire the surrounding land. However, at this time, George said from the side: "The 15 acres of land around here are mine. Those bee pupae you mentioned are here." All the oil field businessmen are drilling wells outside this range, so if you want to buy it, you may have to go a little further."

"Is it all your land? Is it all?" Rockefeller looked at George and said dryly. Did his partner buy such a large area because he knew there was an oil field here? Suddenly he felt that this young man was a bit unfathomable. .

"Haha, my family used to be a farm owner. We wanted to build a new city, so naturally we had to buy a bigger piece of land."

"And all the residents in this area have signed relocation agreements. Not an inch of land here belongs to them. Now they are only living here temporarily. Of course, I will not drive them away for the time being. Oilfield exploration also requires manpower. From these It’s more convenient to recruit people, isn’t it?”

After expressing his generosity, George led Rockefeller to an oil drilling rig.George had no ability to discern the quality of oil at a glance, but Rockefeller was different.His Standard Oil is a giant based on this. How could he not be able to judge the quality of the oil?

"Oh, I'm so jealous that I want to kill you." Rockefeller was silent for a long time after looking at it, and finally said this with a hint of greed and jealousy.

"I'll take what you said as a joke, otherwise the Rockefeller family might have to change its patriarch. Someone just put a bomb on my car." George said nonchalantly.He glanced sideways at the security guard who was staring at Rockefeller and said, "Don't take it out. He is my partner. It was just a joke." The leader of such a large family spoke like this. Not so good.Although it's possible that this is really what he was thinking.George felt that he should talk to him, but considering the other person's age, he decided not to.

Because exploitation has just begun, the size of the oil area and estimated reserves are still unknown.But one thing is certain, the discovery of such a large oil field will make the cooperation between the two companies closer than ever before. Nothing can bind people's hearts more than interests.

In the surrounding town, the two of them, who smelled of asphalt, settled here temporarily.There is no better way to grasp accurate data than to visit the scene in person. George repeatedly assured that he was a law-abiding citizen and would fulfill the contract as stipulated, which reassured Rockefeller.

"The contract is protected by law, unless I can deceive you into transferring the shares to me, but you will definitely not be simply deceived by me." George frowned and said, "Because of the Standard Oil shares, you can rest assured that the reserves are not It will delay our cooperative relationship."

"We are all honest businessmen, so of course everything must be done according to the contract." After receiving the guarantee, Rockefeller nodded with satisfaction and said, "This will make our cooperation indestructible and no one can resist us."

Rockefeller also expressed an attitude. Because of the emergence of oil-producing areas, he was willing to stand by his partners, so that George could rest assured that the Penicillin Company would be there.

"Haha, don't forget what you said." George also said solemnly, "Okay, if you are worried, just watch here. I will go back in two days. They are all made of asphalt. I can’t get used to the smell.”

"Haha, for me, it's just the opposite."

After two more days in the oil fields, George was ready to leave for New York.Because Professor Osborne called and said that they had received another invitation from the Geneva International Science Summit, and they needed to prepare for traveling to Europe.So call George and ask him to prepare in advance.

Four days later, George returned to New York and began to make some arrangements for the business.Now that many of his businesses are on track, there is no need for him to do anything more.

George just sent a design drawing of the AK assault rifle to Winchester Company and asked them to continue development and production.George still felt it was inconvenient for security personnel to use pistols in close combat and rifles in distant combat. Therefore, he took out the drawings of this assault rifle in advance, hoping to strengthen the security company's armed strength.

For the aircraft company, George also gave some requirements, asking them to develop aircraft that can carry people for long-distance flights as soon as possible.There has been a breakthrough on this point, but George did not go to see it in person. Boeing just said that the noise was still too loud and it was OK for emergency use. For business use, the passenger capacity and so on were not qualified.

Two scripts were also given to the film and television company, and a shoulder-mounted camera has been produced, which will make it more convenient to shoot movies in the future.He also took the time to deliver nearly a hundred tons of wine to Vito Corleone, which was enough for them to sell for a long time.

Other industries should continue to operate according to the previous model, and George did not interfere too much.

On the first day of April, Osborne and his party officially set off from the harbor and boarded the passenger ship bound for Europe.Among them were nearly 20 people from security, lawyers and finance led by George.
