Chapter Two Hundred and Thirty-Three Happy Shout Six Hundred and Sixty-Six
PS: Swap the chapter names of 232 and 233, sorry, I made a mistake! !
The Bourbon dynasty, a royal family not inferior to the Habsburgs.
A transnational dynasty that once ruled Navarre, France, Spain, Naples and Sicily, Luxembourg and several principalities in Italy.
The second half of the 17th century was the most powerful period of the Bourbon dynasty, and its branch, the Orleans dynasty, ruled the powerful country F.
Other offshoots controlled equally powerful Italy and Spain, as well as several duchies.
Unfortunately, the July Revolution overthrew the King of France's rule.
The Bourbon branch of Italy also ended in 1861, leaving only the Spanish royal family.
As for the several duchies that had been occupied, they also ceased to exist with the decline of Bourbon.
The Bourbon-Parma family, the leaders of the two main royalist factions in country F, because the Orléans faction supported the Spanish royal family Alfonso XIII as the leader, its power——
Handing over the documents in his hand to Hogg, Li Zitao's understanding of the Bourbon Dynasty became even more confused.
The more he looked at these materials, the more headaches he got. The intricate relationships, repeated names and titles were like a big pot of stew, so badly stewed that no one could tell which was which.
"Forget it, whoever you love, as long as it doesn't affect my money." Li Zitao, who didn't understand, didn't plan to study any further.
Besides, he had married Princess Marie Anaid Sacha Elilance Adelaide, not a Bourbon princess.
"Belgium, Spain, the Netherlands, Y and F, do you want Hualian to enter the market now?"
After meeting all the members of the Grand Duke's family, Li Zitao suddenly found that the world became wider and clearer before him.
jingle.
"Master, Mr. Itzkitch's phone number." Hogg handed over the receiver.
"Ben, Happy New Year, send my greetings to Joanna and the two little princesses." Li Zitao put down his thoughts, answered the phone and said.
"--What?" After a while, Li Zitao, who was holding the microphone, stood up suddenly.
"Great, Ben, this is really the best New Year's gift, haha, I'm going there right now." After hanging up the phone, Hogg was already getting the car ready.
"Dear Sasha, there are some things that I need to deal with immediately, I'm really sorry, I can't accompany you to see other arrangements—"
"I'll arrange them, you just have to tell me, how long?" asked Adelaide, looking back at him.
"A week, or longer." Li Zitao said uncertainly.
"Okay, be careful." She gave him a helpless look, and Her Royal Highness adjusted the shirt and tie for him.
"I'll be back as soon as possible." After kissing her forehead and greeting the two princesses in the living room, Li Zitao went out.
"Don't you need to ask him what he is going to do?" Elizabeth looked at her sister curiously.
"He will tell me." Adelaide smiled confidently, and went back to the table to continue picking the right color. She wanted to choose the right tablecloth for the banquet on the day of the ceremony.
"Is their relationship really as you said?" Seeing the sweetness and trust between the two before, Princess Charlotte looked at Elizabeth in confusion.
"—Maybe this is God's arrangement." Elizabeth said speechlessly.
He had just educated his sister-in-law about the complex relationship between the two that she had learned about from a young age, and she was caught off guard when the slap in the face came.
...
Alaska, the banks of the Kupaluk River.
Opening the car door, the biting cold wind blows on his body, but Li Zitao only feels his blood rushing all over his body.
"Boss, they are the Schlumberger brothers, the boss Yass and his younger brother Wei Qi. They are responsible for the survey and drilling here."
"Yas, Wei Qi, you did a great job!" Li Zitao took the initiative to step forward, holding the hands of the two and shaking them vigorously.
"Thank you BOSS." The two brothers were equally excited.
"Now, can you take me to see the miracle you have created?" Li Zitao smiled while pressing down on the brim of his hat, thinking, 'today's wind is really strong enough. '
A group of people walked south along the river bank,
Going around the foot of the mountain, Li Zitao saw drilling rigs spread out to the east.
Next to these drilling machines, there are severely worn drill bits and replaced drill pipes, the least number is thirty or forty.
"Boss, come here." Yas called as he stood beside a drilling rig.
Coming to his side, Li Zitao lowered his head and looked into the bottomless borehole, but he couldn't see anything but pitch black.
"The current logging depth is 1,650 meters. The rock samples obtained from the drill bit prove that there is a piece of Cretaceous sandstone underground." Yas said with bright eyes.
For Cretaceous sandstone, the first three words were ignored by Li Zitao, what he cared about was 'sandstone. '
Sandstone represents oil, natural gas, black oil gold, and a lot of money!
"Can you determine the depth of the oil layer?" Li Zitao looked down the borehole again. The dark hole is now a golden mountain in his eyes.
"According to geologists' speculation, the oil layer is about 1,800 to 2,000 meters—" Wei Qi explained the next work in detail.
Now that it is determined that there is oil in this land, it is time to prepare for oil production, not just the crude equipment for logging.
"We must pay attention to production safety, ensure the lives and properties of workers, and ensure—" Li Zitao borrowed the leader's panacea rhetoric, enjoying admiration.
These days capitalists who value the lives of workers, this Chinese rich man seems to be really different from other capitalists.
For eight consecutive days, Li Zitao stayed here, eating and living with the workers, occasionally practicing boxing, otherwise he took off his clothes and jumped into the river to swim in his big underpants.
Every time they saw this scene, they felt cold and shivered all over. The ice floes flowing along the river water was enough to prove how terrifying the temperature of the river water was.
Li Zitao is a bit addicted, except when he jumped for the first time, he almost got cramps from the cold because he was not prepared, and later he enjoyed the thrill of winter swimming more and more.
After a week of repeated inspections, the oil reserves in this named North Slope Oilfield were determined to be 800 million tons.
The depth is 1925 meters and contains a large amount of recoverable natural gas.
Today, he got up early as usual, and after having dinner with the workers, Li Zitao went to the river bank to warm up and was ready to go swimming for two laps.
The kowtow machine has been installed on the No. 3 drilling well, and the next step is to wait for the oil to come out.
"It's oily, it's oily, it's oily—" Excited shouts came from a distance, and Li Zitao, who had just unbuttoned two buttons, turned his head and ran over there without caring about anything else.
At this moment, next to the drilling machine marked as No. 3, there are people inside and out.
The liquid that flows down the tubing makes everyone smell the delicious 'aroma. '
Well, it's the smell of money, you can't go wrong!
Seeing the oil flowing out with his own eyes, Li Zitao felt relieved, and it was time to talk to Rockefeller about cooperation.
