Rockefeller will not let the enemy die on his own. In the current stage of Rockefeller's dictionary, there is no word "forgiveness". Those who dare to provoke Rockefeller have become Rockefeller's stepping stones. Standard oil was established under the premise that Rockefeller continued to annex the opponent.

The Dutch dared to establish Shell Oil, which does not necessarily mean that the Dutch are ready to face Rockefeller's revenge. Perhaps the Dutch are lucky and do not think that Rockefeller will pay attention to Shell Oil, which is still far from threatening Standard Oil. But since Rockefeller has come to the Far East, it clearly shows Rockefeller's attitude. If Li Mu is not wrong, the Dutch must be having a headache now, how can we cope with the pressure brought by Rockefeller?

Speaking of which, Shell Oil should have appeared in 1907. It is a multinational oil company group composed of Royal Dutch Petroleum Corporation and the British Shell Transportation and Trading Co., Ltd., but there is no problem with this. After all, there is no Junma Group in another time and space. The appearance of Li Mu has changed the fate of many people.

"The oil discovered by the Dutch was in Tragaside. According to the news we have received before, the Dutch seemed to have not found a real oil well. However, since there are oil seedlings on the surface, it is only a matter of time to find the oil well. Therefore, it is actually very simple to solve the problem. I heard that an American company is helping the Dutch find oil. I think we can think of a solution in this regard." Compared to Rockefeller, Li Mu's method is relatively mild. If the problem can be solved in a peaceful way, Li Mu will not kill him. In this regard, Li Mu still has a bottom line, which is completely different from Rockefeller.

"I know that company, don't worry. If you rely on that company, the Dutch will never find oil. However, I don't care about the progress of the Dutch now. Since there are oil fields on Sumatra, why can't these oil fields belong to standard oil?" Rockefeller is indeed cruel enough. Not only to fight Shell, but also to snatch the oil fields on Shell's hands together.

Rockefeller has always wanted to explore the Far East market. Compared with the United States and Europe, the Far East market size is even better. Although the Far East now cannot sell much gasoline because of few cars, the Far East has a huge population base, and the demand for lamp oil is definitely very high.

Previously, the lamp oil sold by Standard Oil in the Far East was transported from the United States from a long distance. Because of the long journey, the transportation costs greatly increased the cost of lamp oil, which led to insufficient competitiveness of lamp oil and insufficient market response, which made Rockefeller regretful. Therefore, Rockefeller actively invested in Far East companies, hoping to find oil fields in Luzon and produce lamp oil nearby to sell it in the Far East. This will become a new profit growth point for Standard Oil.

The result was obvious that Rockefeller had nothing to do with oil exploration in Luzon. Instead, the Dutch discovered oil in Sumatra. This result made Rockefeller very angry and the consequences would be very serious.

"What do you want to do? Tragarside has been bought by the Dutch. Before getting enough returns, the Dutch will probably not transfer it." Li Mu knew Rockefeller's personality and also knew what Rockefeller would do. Soon, someone would be in trouble.

"Haha, it's okay, wait and see, we just need more patience." Rockefeller is not in a hurry, there will always be opportunities.

Li Mu has always believed that he should treat his enemies as ruthless as the autumn wind swept away the fallen leaves. Obviously, Rockefeller also believes so.

On the third day after Li Mu and Rockefeller arrived in Luzon, a vicious incident occurred on Sumatra. A drilling team conducting oil exploration on Sumatra was attacked by local natives. More than 80 people, including three local guides and more than 20 armed gunmen, were killed. Among the victims were Ike Zicker, the owner of the newly established Shell Oil Company.

This is actually normal. There are more than 17,000 islands in the East Indies of the Netherlands, most of which are in an undeveloped state. Even for several major islands with a large population, there are a large number of land that has not yet been visited by anyone. For example, Sumatra, where the tragedy occurred, there are many indigenous people on the islands still in a primitive and ignorant state. They do not contact strangers at all and are unwilling to change their status quo. If someone accidentally breaks into their territory, they are often greeted by poison arrows and javelins.

This result is not surprising. The Dutch are no longer the "sea coachman" she once was. Even in the era when the Dutch were scattered around the world, the Netherlands was never known for its force. To put it bluntly, the Dutch had no ability to control the entire Dutch East Indies. Even now, the Dutch had to rely on cooperation with local Sudan to barely maintain their rule.

It is very ironic that when the Dutch occupied the Dutch East Indies, it was with the cooperation of the Chinese "Kebidan" that the Dutch stood firm. Later, in order to eliminate the influence of the Chinese "Kebidan", the Dutch began to target the Chinese on the Dutch East Indies. From the 16th century, the Dutch committed no fewer crimes against Chinese in the Dutch East Indies than the Spanish in Luzon.

After the tragedy, the Dutch colonial government conducted a three-day investigation and ended in a hurry. Within these three days, several violent cases occurred, one of which was the local sultan who sold Tragaside to Shell Oil.

Just one week later, the Dutch colonial government sent people to Manila to find Rockefeller.

Rockefeller received a representative of the Dutch colonial government at the estate where the former governor of Luzon lived, a baron named Reim.

Well, maybe it is precisely for this reason that Li Mu became Rockefeller's guest.

"Mr. Reim, I'm glad to know you." Fortunately, Baron Reim was not very embarrassed when he greeted Li Mu.

"Hisser Baron, this is a coincidence. To be honest, you are the first person I met named Reim." Li Mu was a little bit a little bit, but it doesn't matter. This is the name of the white man. The probability of rename is amazing. The name of Reim is quite good. The talent of Mike and Henry is tragic.

In fact, there are many people in the United States who are called Lim now, especially among the Chinese group. Many people are willing to regard the name "Lim" as their second name to express their gratitude to Li Mu.

Rockefeller prepared Chinese food to entertain Baron Reim. Anyone who knows Luzon knows that Luzon is now a country with Chinese as the main body. Everything related to Chinese is popular in this country. The shops on the street have begun to use Chinese, and the number of Chinese restaurants has increased significantly. Even the Luzon government is considering using Chinese as the legal official language of Luzon. Therefore, tasting Chinese food in Luzon is a good choice.

The dinner was made of separate meals, and the dishes were not the protagonists of the dinner. Baron Rim officially expressed his purpose not long after he took his seat.

"Mr. President, you know, recently there have been a series of appalling violent cases in the Dutch East Indies, and Mr. Governor is very worried about this. The findings of the investigation into this series of violent cases show that the cause of the violent cases may be due to the oil on Sumatra. Therefore, in order to eliminate violence and restore peace in the East Indies, a strong professional is needed to end all this. So Mr. President, are you interested in oil on Sumatra?"

Li Mu didn't know how frustrated Baron Reim would feel when he said this. Anyway, if it were Li Mu, Li Mu would probably not be able to say it.

Li Mu didn't know what the investigation results of the Dutch East India were in this series of cases. As long as you have a little understanding of Rockefeller, you will know that Rockefeller is the biggest suspect. Baron Reim's meaning is very clear. He hopes to hand over the oil fields on Sumatra to Rockefeller to end this farce. This is equivalent to the surrender of the Dutch East India to Rockefeller. People with a little temper may not be so weak.

Unfortunately, the Dutch East India colonial government was so weak when facing trust enterprises like Standard Oil. Don’t think that the Dutch were so backbone. This was also a colonial country with declining rivers. The outcome of uncompromising was obvious. The Spanish in the Luzon colonial government was the best example. The situation in the Netherlands was not much better than that of Spain. Therefore, in front of Rockefeller, Baron Reim was destined to be unable to stand up.

Compared with the country, private companies have higher degrees of freedom and no bottom line. For example, the US government will not declare war on the Netherlands now. The Dutch are very clear about this, but Standard Oil can be unscrupulous in the Dutch East India, which is also very clear about.

It is very simple to stop this unscrupulousness. The Dutch East India Colonial Government is very clear that Rockefeller's subordinates must be wandering on Sumatra. If the Dutch East India Colonial Government has enough strength to find Rockefeller's subordinates to directly annihilate it, it will interrupt Rockefeller's black hand to the Sumatra oil field. The problem is that the Dutch East India Colonial Government cannot do it, so the Dutch had to bow to Rockefeller, so that at least they could get the taxes they deserve.

No one is qualified to be tough in the face of money.

"Oh, is there any oil on Kalimantan? Of course, I'm very interested." Rockefeller's expression was sincere, but what he said made people hate him.

"It's Sumatra." Baron Reim looked at Rockefeller with a bad look.

But this is useless. Even Baron Reim gritted his teeth and looked hideous, it would not change the fact that the Dutch were helpless against Rockefeller. Facing a "robber tycoon" like Rockefeller, if you do not have enough strength, it is best to remain modest. Otherwise, Rockefeller will let you know that the rumors are true.

"Okay, Sumatra, it's the same. I only care about whether there is oil or not. I only care about oil. Don't worry, as long as I hand over the oil field to me, if anyone dares to deliberately find fault, I will make his mother unable to recognize him." Rockefeller no longer pretended, and his words were also a warning to the Dutch.

The wealth is moving. Now that Shell Oil has not found oil, the Dutch dares to challenge Rockefeller's standard oil. When the drilling team sent by Rockefeller finds oil, maybe something else will happen. Rockefeller also gives the Dutch a vaccination first, so as not to cause trouble in the future.

"Of course, we believe that you have this ability, Mr. President." Baron Reim looked ugly. After saying this, Baron Reim hurriedly ended the dinner on the pretext of being unwell.

It's time to leave and continue to stay. It's a torture for the Dutch. Whether it's the arrogant Rockefeller or Li Mu who is watching the fun, they all hate it in the Dutch.

"Ha, it seems we are not welcome." Li Mu raised his glass with a smile when Baron Reim walked away.

To be honest, Rockefeller's methods also opened Li Mu's eyes. Li Mu only now realizes how unscrupulous a powerful trust enterprise is in this era. In the past, Li Mu would sometimes look at the forefront and take some face into consideration when doing things. Rockefeller set the best example for Li Mu. Face is a little bit of meaning, and his strength is absolutely superior, so there is no need to beat around the bush.

"It is right to be unpopular. If the Dutch welcomes us, it means they will be able to eat us. It is best now. They don't like me, but they have to bow their heads in front of me. I think this should impress the Dutch for a long time in the future." Rockefeller was not ashamed but proud. Many things, to put it bluntly, are so boring. What about ridicule in person? So what if you scold me behind your back? As long as the result is good, the process can be ignored.

The next thing was natural. At noon the next day, Baron Reim signed a contract with Rockefeller on behalf of the Dutch East India Colonial Government. Rockefeller spent only 1.5 million US dollars to obtain the power to explore oil throughout the Dutch East Indies.

In order to successfully obtain the right to oil mining, Rockefeller did not ask for a huge price. If Rockefeller could find oil in the Dutch East Indies, then Rockefeller would have to pay taxes in accordance with the relevant laws of the Dutch East Indies when producing oil. Rockefeller did not object to this. Anyway, as long as Rockefeller was willing, it would be Rockefeller's final say. Standard Oil also has a huge financial department and legal department, and those people exist for this.

Li Mu was not at all beneficial. While Rockefeller and the Dutch East India Colonial Government signed an agreement, Li Mu also learned about the laws of the Dutch East India Colonial Government. As a result, Li Mu found that as long as Li Mu was willing, Li Mu could buy islands in the Dutch East India Islands, and the price was quite low, which made Li Mu very happy.
