Chapter 514 Libyan Oil

Volhawk, who was working far away in the desert, didn't feel Antoniko's worries at all. Because he had just returned from the drilling position tiredly, and he didn't even bother to wash off the oil stains on his body.

On the bed.

The diesel engine that drove the drilling had malfunctioned, and Volhawk and his men quickly repaired it. The diesel engines used for drilling were large in size, and repairs were time-consuming and labor-intensive, even to the point where Volhawk's strong body was exhausted.

Now he just wants to rest and doesn't want to worry about anything else.

While Walhawk was resting, the drilling platform was still working non-stop. The staff who stayed behind were also meticulously checking the operation of the equipment. The "rumbling" noise of the drilling platform was enough to make people uneasy, but these

People have long been accustomed to this. Some of them seem so ordinary.

Suddenly there was a "pop" sound, and the drill bit sank. Workers who were familiar with drilling operations immediately realized what they had drilled.

"Hurry up and call the captain. We should have discovered something."

"Hopefully it won't be groundwater this time."

The drilling crew started talking at once. Before the man who ran to tell Volhawk to go away, black oil with the gray color of mud spurted out. The oil splashed up to a height of nearly 100 meters.

, the drilling platform was instantly changed to black.

"We hit oil."

"Hahaha, oil is coming out."

People present cheered for the emerging oil. After almost a year of hard work, they finally saw the results.

When Volhawk rushed to the drilling platform, he couldn't help but be surprised by the high spray of oil. "I'm afraid we have hit a big oil field."

Because in Walhawk's life, he had never seen oil spray spraying so high, and the sight of the spray was so fascinating. He couldn't help but gently stretched out his hand to catch the spray of oil and licked it slowly

, and then taste it carefully - not astringent! Not bitter! This is a sign of high-quality oil.

However, Volhawk was the captain after all, and he immediately issued the order without caring about admiring the beautiful scenery of the oil jet.

"Quickly, prepare equipment to hold it down first. We can't let the crude oil go to waste like this. This is in the sand."

Under Volhawk's order, the members of the exploration team immediately prepared equipment to tame the violent black dragon.

And Volhawk said to the security captain who also arrived, "Send a telegram to the company quickly, we have pumped oil."

After saying that, he ignored the surprised captain and led his team members to the work of taming him.

The captain also knew the importance of the news of the oil production, and immediately arranged for his team members to rush to nearby towns as quickly as possible to report the great news to the Italian government and the Italian Petroleum Company.

"It's oily."

The news quickly reached Benghazi.

When the person in charge of the region knocked on the door of Antonico, who was staying in the hotel, and told him the good news, the CEO of Italian Petroleum Company started dancing in the room.

If you can make a 180-pound fat man dance with the wind, you can imagine the impact of this news on him. After the pressure disappeared, Anthony immediately asked after stopping dancing, "Which exploration team is it?"

"No. 12 Exploration Team, they drilled crude oil fifteen kilometers west of Jialu Oasis. This is a high-yield well with a daily crude oil production of 6,000 tons, and it is also high-quality oil."

The local person in charge's face turned red when he said this, and he was also stimulated by the good news.

"Having people rush there immediately with equipment, and the problem of oil transportation also needs to be solved. We need to let the Italian people see Libyan oil as soon as possible. In addition, the bonus will be brought to the exploration team and distributed to everyone.

I want everyone involved in exploration to know that the company will not treat them badly."

Anthony is the president of the company after all. After calming down, he quickly talked about various things that needed to be done.

"I will bring the equipment and money there myself. What about the transportation route?"

"you do not need to worry."

Anthony waved his hand and continued. "The government will immediately order the construction of a road to connect there for short-term oil transportation. I will prepare the oil pipeline as soon as possible after I return."

This oil company is mainly owned by the government, and I believe they are more anxious than we are.

While Italian-Romanian oil company was cheering over the news of oil production, Italy was not bad either.

"Prime Minister, oil has been drilled in Libya."

In the Prime Minister's Office, the secretary broke into Mussolini's office with a telegram and reported the good news to him.

"Great, now Italy finally has oil."

Hearing the good news, Mussolini, who was working, couldn't help but waved his fist.

Currently all of Italy's oil is imported, and the discovery of oil in Libya is enough to make him happy.

Speaking of which, if you are not a rich man, you will not know that money, rice, oil and salt are expensive. After Mussolini came to power, he was troubled by many things. The most troublesome thing for him was that Italy lacked resources for various industrial development, lack of coal, lack of iron ore, and lack of oil.

Wait, after all, there is a shortage of all kinds of resources, except for the population. But these people have to eat and work, so why doesn't this bother him?

Finding oil from Libya is definitely good news.

Mussonelli took the telegram from his secretary and read it.

"Okay, okay, okay."

After reading the telegram, Mussolini shouted hello three times. Because the telegram said that based on the calculation of the oil output from the oil wells, preliminary estimates indicate that the discovered oil field reserves are around 500 million tons. As for the specific amount, further exploration is needed.

A total of 500 million tons of crude oil is enough for Italy's current use. Mussolini was naturally overjoyed with this good news. Now he began to plan ideas for Italy's oil industry. Where should he put the oil industry? Is it nearby?

In Palermo, or in Genoa, where he has many supporters, this is really a question.

The news of oil production in Libya also quickly spread to Romania. When Eder learned the news, he did not pay too much attention to it, which surprised Horia, the captain of the guard who reported to him.

There is no way, you already know that there are huge reserves of crude oil there, how can you make Edel happy.

And his current attention is on Poland, because Piłsudski has just been appointed as the lifelong commander of the army, which also means that Poland has entered its dictatorship. And Romania has a close relationship with Poland, so Edel has to focus on

in Poland.

As several Polish governments changed rapidly and the political situation became increasingly chaotic, Piłsudski became increasingly dissatisfied with the government and finally issued a statement calling for the resignation of the Vitos cabinet. After Piłsudski's strong criticism of Hjeno-Pia

The Sturt Alliance forms a new government.

On May 12-14, 1926, Piłsudski returned to power in a coup (the May Putsch) that was supported by the Socialists, the Polish People's Party "Wyzwolenie" faction, the Peasants' Party, and even the Communist Party

center.

Piłsudski hoped to launch a bloodless conflict, but the government refused to back down; 215 soldiers and 164 soldiers and civilians were killed, and at least 900 people were injured. On May 31, the Sejm elected Piłsudski as President of Poland.

.But Piłsudski knew that the president only had very limited powers and refused the position. Another old friend of his, Ignacy Mościcki, was elected president to replace him. Piłsudski's official position was

Commander of the army, it seems that this marshal also understands the principle of giving power through the barrel of a gun.

At present, the economic ties between Romania and Poland are too close. If Piłsudski had any other ideas, it would make Romania uncomfortable. Fortunately, his worries are unnecessary.

"Your Majesty, our ambassador talked with Piłsudski. The Marshal promised not to amend the Treaty of Friendship with Romania. At the same time, he also expressed the importance he attached to relations with Romania."

Now Edel was finally relieved about Poland.
