Before the 1930s, there were just piles of sand and piles of green.
It was only after the 1930s that oil fields were discovered in North Africa that this land gained real value.
Currently, in North Africa, the discovered oil fields are concentrated in Algeria and Libya, with Tunisia’s share being only a small part.
A very small part.
But even this small part touches the hearts of countless people.
In the early morning, Mobil Oilfield, as usual, the oilfield started another noisy day. The workers got up from the simple sheds and prepared to eat. The technicians were still sleeping. The security personnel had to deal with something that happened in the nearby oil field last night.
Not back yet, the purpose is the same as usual, Mobil Oilfield has started a new day.
If you just look at the name, Mobil Oilfield has a very bright future. In fact, this is just a good wish. Mobil Oilfield only has three oil wells that can produce oil, and the daily output is only about 8,000 barrels. Let alone Mobil Oil, even in Barcelona
Er Petroleum Development Company and Mobil Oilfield are not ranked either.
Although the output is a bit lower, there is still oil output, so the Mobil Oilfield still has more than 300 workers, plus more than 20 security personnel, so it is a small but well-equipped company.
The workers in the Mobil Oilfield looked a little worried today. People from the security department went on a mission last night and have not returned yet, which makes people a little uneasy.
Mobil Oilfield is located on the border between Tunisia and Libya. It is very close to the area controlled by the Brotherhood Alliance. Rangers from the Brotherhood Alliance are often found around the Mobil Oil Field. However, because the Mobil Oilfield has a security department, those Brotherhood Alliance Rangers
He didn't do anything too extreme, so although he was a little uneasy, it wasn't to the point where he wasn't interested in working.
As usual, Operations Manager Dan Rebus came to General Manager Adam Leslie's office to report today's work plan.
Today's task is still 8,000 barrels. As long as we get 8,000 barrels of crude oil, we will complete the task. Rebus's work plan is the same as usual, no different.
Then do it. Leslie doesn't want to talk nonsense. He is planning to transfer back to Djerba Island and is not too concerned about the Mobil Oil Field.
The people from the security department have not returned yet. Should I urge them? Rebus is still worried. Without the security team by his side, Rebus is not confident enough to urge the Algerians to work seriously.
You can give them a call. Leslie was only half joking.
After hearing Leslie's answer, Rebus didn't talk nonsense.
Rebus knew that this was a sign that Leslie was a little impatient.
This is North Africa. Making phone calls is a luxury. Telegraph is the most commonly used communication tool. However, due to cost reasons, it is not available everywhere. At least the security team definitely does not carry wireless telegraph.
After all, the cost of telephones is too high, and not just any team can afford to equip them. Not to mention telephones, even wireless telegraphs are rare for the security team of Mobil Oilfield. There is only one wireless telegraph in the entire Mobil Oilfield, and that is Leslie and
Rebus made countless telegrams before it could be installed.
After understanding what Leslie meant, Rebus turned around and left Leslie's office without arguing, preparing to arrange the next shift handover.
Just as Rebus was arranging the handover, nearly a thousand knights had already assembled behind a sand dune less than five kilometers away from Mobil Oil Field.
Head, everything is ready. As long as you give the order, the Mobil Oilfield will be ours. Jackson was confident and took several centurions to ask Yang Deshan for orders.
The organizational structure of the Brotherhood League is different from that of the current teams. As a descendant of Arabs, the organizational structure implemented by the Brotherhood League is that of the Arabs in ancient times. In fact, it is not accurate to describe it this way, because strictly speaking, centurions
This position of chief was not created by Arabs, but considering that the Brotherhood is a group of illiterate people, it is understandable.
Go ahead, get this oil field back, and then we will have enough weapons and ammunition. Yang Deshan is sitting on a small blanket, and Shalim is making tea for Yang Deshan. If there is a Chinese present, then he will definitely recognize this person.
Longjing.
During the Republic of China, tea was still very popular in North Africa. The rice that North Africans usually eat is too greasy, and they need tea to neutralize the fat, so tea is very common in North Africa.
Of course, just because tea is very common does not mean that Longjing is also very common. The common tea in North Africa is imported from India, not directly from the Republic of China.
Since the 1980s, the British have been cultivating tea in India, so tea is no longer a specialty of the Republic of China. Tea in North Africa is more of an Indian product.
Of course, the tea Yang Deshan drank must have been imported from the Republic of China. As a general of the Brotherly Alliance, Yang Deshan always had some privileges.
Upon hearing Yang Deshan's order, Jackson did not hesitate at all, and immediately whistled and galloped away with a group of troops.
There are indeed many oil fields in North Africa, but the number of cars is pitifully small. Even the brotherly alliance cannot afford cars now, and Yang Deshan is very angry.
Mobil Oilfield is located in a desert area. In this kind of place, it is better if you walk slowly, but if you gallop, the dust will be very large. This is simply the best warning tool. Jackson and the others have just set off.
Within five minutes, a loud siren sounded from the Mobil Oil Field.
It was useless to think about it. The security team from Mobil Oil Field had not returned yet. If Rebus wanted to resist, he could only rely on the wrench in his hand.
As a result, without any resistance, Jackson and the cavalry easily seized control of the Mobil Oil Field.
Listen, we are an alliance of brothers. From now on, Mobil Oilfield is the industry of the alliance of brothers. You must work for us, just like before. Of course, we will also pay you, even more than before, as long as
You work hard. Your life will be the same as before. There will be no change. At the same time, you will earn more money and your safety will be guaranteed. Do you understand? At the gate of the oil field, Jackson sat on the back of a camel.
, holding an Enfield rifle in his hand, lecturing the workers in front of him.
There are benefits to the desert area. The workers in the entire Mobil Oilfield were very honest. No one tried to escape or resist. Everyone, including Rebus, looked a little dull and didn't have much reaction to Jackson's words.
Damn it, did you understand what I said? Now I want you to get back to work right away. Now Jackson was a little angry. In order to increase the deterrence, Jackson pulled the trigger, of course not at the person, but at the sky.
Warning shots fired.
Sir, I don’t quite understand why you are doing this. You must know that this is the Basel Petroleum Development Company, and its bosses are the Prince of Basel and King Lanfang. If you do this, you will definitely be retaliated by those two big shots.
So the best thing you can do now is to evacuate. I can pretend that this incident did not happen. Leslie is not here, and Rebus is the top leader of the workers present. Due to circumstances and reasons, Rebus should be the one to negotiate.
Don't worry about the Prince of Basel and the King of Lanfang. They are indeed important people, but they can't take care of it now. If I were you, I would go back to work now. In any case, at least that way you will not be harmed.
Jackson was rude and very threatening.
Of course, we will continue to work, but one thing must be certain, we are working for the oil fields, not for your brotherly alliance. Rebus has a bottom line and emphasizes it quite firmly.
Who are you and what is your name? Jackson finally looked at Rebus, jumped off the camel's back and stood in front of Rebus.
Rebus, Archibald Rebus, I am the manager of the production department and also the manager of the operations department. Now here, I am the top leader. Rebus did not shirk responsibility and directly reported his name and position.
The Mobil Oilfield actually occupies a large area, covering more than ten square kilometers. Although there are only three oil wells here, they have not been fully developed. If exploration continues, it is estimated that more oil wells will appear.
Basel Petroleum Development Company is a mature company that has been running for more than two years. It has its own set of operating rules and everyone is responsible for their own responsibilities. As far as Mobil Oil Field is concerned, in this situation, it is indeed Rebu
Si has the final say.
Very good, Rebus, I remember you. By sunset today, you have to produce 8,000 barrels of crude oil, otherwise I will think you are lazy. I have always been fair when dealing with lazy people. Every barrel of crude oil
It’s just a human life. I don’t care what the reason is. As long as the output is less than 8,000 barrels, I will ask for you. Jackson can also be lazy. Jackson is not proficient in oil exploration, but fortunately the barrel of the gun is in Jackson’s hands.
, Jackson has enough decision-making power.
If you insist, of course I will do it, but I need a promise. If I can complete the task of 8,000 barrels, then you cannot harm anyone here at will. Rebus has a bottom line and is responsible for the workers. That is Rebus.
One of Booth's missions.
Then let's get started and don't waste time on meaningless things. Jackson didn't want to waste time. All this wasted was crude oil, which meant it was all money.
By the time Yang Deshan arrived at the oil field, the machines had started running again, and the oil field was noisy again. It was the same as before, no different.
That's it, we only fired one shot and took control of the oil field. Jackson reported to Yang Deshan, his expression not very proud.
Okay, gather the brothers together. Next, we have to face the mercenaries of the Prince of Basel. Yang Deshan has a clear understanding of the current situation.
The oil field is now the lifeblood of Basel, and Basel will definitely not let the brotherhood poach him, so there is still a fierce battle to be fought next.
