() Liu Fu in Taiwan watched these countries tossing back and forth. He was both happy and worried. This kind of submarine ambush has been used 4 times. The effect is indescribable, but the side effects are also great. If discovered by other countries,
He cannot bear the crime of killing all the people who fell into the water. At that time, all European and American countries will adopt a unified voice and take practical actions to attack himself as a murderer and executioner.
"I really have no idea. Taiwan is such a small place that it really can't hide you sailors from various countries. Since you can go to other people's countries and become bosses, you must have this consciousness. If you come out to hang out, you will have to pay back sooner or later.
Amitabha...
...Rest in peace." Liu Fu had no choice but to order all the witnesses to be killed. There really was no place in Taiwan to hide so many prisoners of war without being discovered. As for being thrown into a black coal kiln to fend for themselves, Liu Fu felt it was okay.
It's better to give him a happy humanity.
The disappearance of the French fleet lasted until July and then gradually calmed down. While Britain, France and other countries were busy sending ships to patrol the sea, Liu Fu was not idle in Taiwan either. He was in a wasteland between Keelung and Tamsui.
, an airport was planned.
People at that time didn't know what an airplane was, so they could only follow Liu Fu's request to level all the ground and then lay half a meter of concrete on it, with a total of two runways and several branch roads and aprons.
Semi-buried hangars, underground oil depots, pilot dormitories, control towers and other buildings.
This project is not too big, but the quality requirements are very high, and a lot of cement and steel bars are used. It is estimated that it will take 2 years to be basically completed. Liu Fu does not have too high requirements for the construction period, but emphasizes that the quality must be excellent, and he always claims to the outside world that it is
Test track.
In fact, this aircraft is not what Liu Fu currently needs. However, an engineer from the research institute accidentally saw Liu Fu playing with a toy model aircraft on a fishing boat, so he shamelessly insisted on borrowing it for research. It is said that he had manufactured it in Europe.
Airships have an instinctive love for everything that can fly.
Liu Fu thought about it for a long time and felt that sooner or later the aircraft project would have to be developed anyway, so it would be better to let him study it first, but the research must be kept confidential. Therefore, Liu Fu planned to build the airport first, and then separate the aircraft research from the research institute.
Split it off and put it at the airport to establish an aircraft research institute. Although
Although the airport will take 2 years to complete, it will only take a few months to build an underground research institute alone. As for the wind tunnel, Liu Fu didn't know how to do it, so he continued to let the researchers take the model aircraft to the cottage, regardless of whether it was a model or not.
It will eventually fly, but it is much better than starting from scratch.
Here in Taiwan, Liu Fu finally escaped a disaster. Over in the United States, the "Daqing Petroleum Company" had smooth sailing. Since the first spouting well was drilled in Fort Worth, good luck has continued one after another.
Continuously, and soon they were hitting 10 in succession in the Gobi Desert west of Fort Worth.
Multiple oil and gas wells. Not only have large oil fields been drilled here in Fort Worth, but the Pecos exploration team further west has also drilled several oil and gas wells, and the locations are relatively scattered. This shows that the oil reserves in the Pecos area
It's higher than the Fort Worth area, maybe it's a giant oil and gas field.
In fact, the oil and gas fields in the Pecos area are the famous "Yates" oil fields in later generations. They are among the top three super-large oil and gas fields in the United States. This large oil field with reserves of 3 billion tons was actually only discovered in the 1920s.
Although oil was drilled, it did not mean success. West Texas in this era was a wasteland with no roads or railroads. But don't worry, in the second week after the oil was drilled, David introduced Schneider to "Standard Oil"
John Jr., the president of the company. At this time, the main oil reserves of "Standard Oil Company" were in Nevada, Oklahoma, New Jersey and other places. Due to years of exploitation, the oil reserves in these places have become large.
There was a sharp decrease in the number of new oil fields in the United States, and there were very few new oil fields in the United States. Therefore, the "Daqing Oil Company" and the "Standard Oil Company" hit it off, and the "Standard Oil Company" funded the establishment of an oil refinery in Houston, and imported oil from Pecos and Washington.
Two oil pipelines were built in the Fort area to send crude oil directly to Houston for processing. 20% of the finished products were shipped from Houston and shipped to Taiwan, and the remaining 80% was split between two companies.
Someone asked, why don't you build your own refinery and oil pipeline, but still share some of the benefits with others? This is mainly because Liu Fu doesn't want to spend too much time and experience on this. The oil industry is labor-intensive.
Industry requires not only a huge drilling fleet and refineries, but also an even larger
Transportation tools and sales outlets. These are difficult for Daqing Petroleum Company, which has just set foot in the oil industry, to achieve in a short period of time. Moreover, it is difficult for a new small company to occupy such a large area with high oil production.
Make sure that the American oil tycoons don’t cause trouble and harm the U.S. government.
Fu has to have his legs inserted.
By bringing the "Standard Oil Company" together, although a large part of the profits were lost, it also saved most of the trouble. In the United States at that time, the "Standard Oil Company" was a giant beast that was forcibly dismantled by the government.
After they were separated, they were not weak at all and turned into a group of giant beasts.
In October 1899, after negotiating cooperation with Standard Oil Company, Schneider also took some time off. Since oil pipelines and refineries were still under construction, the oil fields could basically only be exploited on a small scale, and then the crude oil was put into oil storage tanks.
Save. There is not much left to do except for some preparations for purchasing equipment and recruiting workers.
Schneider reported the situation here to Liu Fu and wanted to ask if Liu Fu had any maps and was planning to explore a few more areas. Schneider liked this game of asking for wealth from the earth. Liu Fu soon
I called back and the answer was that there are plenty of maps, but you have to do something for me. If the thing is done well, the map will be a reward. If you don't do it well, there will be no reward.
What Liu Fu is talking about is to build gas stations across the United States. Although there are not many cars now and there is no need for gas stations, Liu Fu is ready to add fuel to the fire to the automobile industry. He has been holding on for many years.
We are preparing to launch the Yangtze 750 motorcycle into the market. We will hold off on the car for the time being and wait until a few years later.
The gas station project was given to Schneider, and the motorcycle project was also inseparable from him. After all, it was this gentleman who tinkered with the first Yangtze River 750 motorcycle. Apart from Liu Fu, he was the most familiar with motorcycles, and he was the one who worked on it.
Mechanical manufacturing, my profession!
However, he could not handle so many things all by himself. Liu Fu planned to let David take a stake and help Schneider build gas stations. After all, he had Sandro Electric Co.'s sales points all over the United States and built gas stations.
The results are similar. Schneider, on the other hand, is going all out to build a motorcycle manufacturing plant and production line, striving to put it into production within one year.
Now Mr. David Warburg can be said to be extremely depressed. Liu Fu asked Schneider to come to him with a map and offered 20% of the shares. However, he was not brave enough and only invested 10%. Seeing that oil was like Liu Fu
The tap water in their backyard was like water. You could get out of it if you wanted. David was as jealous as a rabbit.
David, who has lived in the United States for nearly ten years, is very aware of the potential of oil, a new energy source. As long as this thing is drilled in the right place, it is a well that sprays dollars. Many American farmers rely on the oil produced in their farmland.
And he became rich overnight. Although David was not short of money, the richer people are, the more sensitive they are to money. This time he made an investment mistake and lost 10% of his profits in vain. That is not 10% of one million or ten million.
%, but 10% of billions or even tens of billions.
After David drilled the well and produced oil, he sent a telegram to Liu Fu, tactfully saying that he wanted the 10% of the shares back, but Liu Fu replied that a British aristocrat of noble birth could not take back the gift he had given.
, David didn't care about his own reputation, but he couldn't do anything that harmed the reputation of his friends. After hearing this, David had no idea at all. Who made him not believe in Liu Fei, God's favorite?
Although Liu Fu did not return David's 10% shares, he still gave him additional compensation. When Schneider came to him with the motorcycle factory project, David invested 40% of the shares without hesitation. In fact, he also
If he wanted to invest more, he would have liked to build a factory with full investment, but Liu Fu was not that stupid and only gave him the highest 40%.
The amount of investment. David thought about his refrigerator, and then looked at this newer and more practical motorcycle. He had no doubt about the future sales. He even imagined that in the future, cowboys would no longer exist on the Texas prairie.
We were on horseback, all riding motorcycles to herd, and behind each herd there was a black smoke...
