Romania in 1926 was still so busy, and people were running for life or ideals. Also in the desert of North Africa, a group of Romanians are busy here.

The June sun scorched the Libyan desert and sparkled wave after heatwave, and while it wasn't yet the hottest season, it was enough heat to make people feel uncomfortable.

It was in this hot weather that Walhawk commanded his crew to set up drilling equipment. Walhawk and his team belonged to the Romanian Oil Company's exploration team, which was transferred to its exploration team after the creation of the Italian oil company last year. At present, Ilo Petroleum has oil exploration teams from Italy, Romania and the United States. These oil exploration teams, now spread across the vast Libyan soil, searched for the bloodlines of these industries.

"Hurry up, quickly set up the steel frame. Also, to the convoys, we don't have enough drinking water. Ask them when the next batch of water will arrive. ”

As the captain, Walhawk wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and instructed his subordinates to work. Speaking of convoys, the main reason is that Libya is not at peace at the moment, and the Italian government has set up to ensure that they have these valuable oil exploration teams.

Ever since the Italian occupation of Libya, the local tribes have been in revolt from time to time. This has been going on for more than a decade, and it has only stopped a lot after Mussolini came to power. It's not that they support this *** leader, and they are forcefully suppressed.

However, although the local tribes have been suppressed, there is still a certain danger to economic activities. That's why Italy has set up a special escort for each exploration team to ensure their safety.

And in addition to keeping them safe, these escorts will also do some logistical transportation work. After all, the area they need to explore is all sand, and everything needs to be transported from the outside. And the commander of this escort team is already familiar with Walhawk, which is why he is so arrogant for people to ask.

"Captain, I just asked the convoy, and they said that the next batch of supplies will arrive in two days."

"Okay, I got it."

After answering his subordinates, Walhawk saw that the team member carrying a drill pipe was suddenly curled, and hurriedly reminded. "Be careful, watch your step, don't get these devices damaged. You also pay attention to safety. ”

As a reminder from Walhawk, these drill pipes and drill bits are built of ultra-high-strength steel, so the price is naturally not cheap. Without these materials, it would not be possible to drill into the predetermined formation. You must know that this is a formation that needs to be drilled for thousands of meters, and without good materials, these drill bits and drill pipes would have been scrapped long ago. And it costs more than $100,000 to drill a well, and Walhawk is now the fourth well drilled. This is hundreds of thousands of dollars that have been squandered by him, but not a drop of oil has been found, but there is a well that has dug out groundwater, which can be regarded as a cheap nomadic tribe around.

This time, Walhawk plans to drill to a depth of 2,000 meters, so hopefully he will have good luck this time. According to his understanding, the new company is offering a bonus of up to $100,000 for each oil well, and he hopes to get it once.

So even though three wells have been destroyed, the exploration team is still full of energy, and they are eager for the bonus. Otherwise, in this hot desert with a lack of water and food, doing hard and tiring work, if it weren't for the salary and bonuses, who would come to earn money.

Thinking of the bonus, he is full of energy, if he can get the bonus, his child will be able to attend a noble school, and his future will be much stronger than his own in the future. What to do is much better than an exploration team like myself, which is bitter and tiring, and sometimes his life is in danger.

While Walhawk and others were carrying forward the Libyan oil industry, Antonio, the president of the Ilo Oil Company, rushed to Benghazi by ship. This time he was here to inspect oil exploration.

"Mr. Domifer, how is the recent exploration going?"

Anthony asked as soon as he saw the person in charge of the place.

"Your Excellency, the exploration teams are currently stepping up their oil exploration work, but there is no good news yet."

The person in charge replied cautiously, and his words upset Anthony.

"Can you urge them to hurry up, Rome is waiting for their good news."

Anthony's words made the person in charge smile bitterly. He is only in charge of logistics, and whether or not he can get oil can only count on these exploration teams. "Your Excellency, there is no way for us to urge them at the moment, the various exploration teams are already working overtime, and they don't even have time for afternoon tea."

Anthony, who was a little impatient to listen to his explanation, waved his hand to stop the person in charge from continuing, only to see him staring at the other party and said. "You have to know that the patience of those people in Rome is limited, and the company has spent nearly tens of millions of lire of money, but not a single result. I'm under a lot of pressure right now, don't let me pass it on to you. ”

"Pavilion...... Under...... Your Excellency, I am ...... This prompted the exploration team to speed up. ”

The person in charge, who was frightened by Anthony, agreed with some stuttering.

"Go ahead."

With a wave of his hand, Anthony let the poor person in charge go.

In fact, Anthony knows that it is none of the business of the person in charge, but who makes him stress too much, and always needs a place to vent. It's better to vent it on a subordinate than to hold it in your heart, and now he's much better.

In fact, he still has some resentment in his heart, blaming Romania, the second largest shareholder, because Romania does not know where to get the news that they have found oil resources in the Siirte Basin in Libya. Therefore, the Italian government, which had high hopes for this, immediately carried out large-scale exploration in the area. However, it has been too fast for a year, and there has been no news of oil production in the local area.

As the company's president, Antonio was naturally under great pressure, the Italian government needed oil to develop its economy, and the Roman elite also needed oil to make a fortune. As for the Romanian side that provided the news, Anthony certainly couldn't afford to offend, so he could only find balance in his subordinates.

Anthony, who has a stomach full of worries, casually wanders around Benghazi, which is full of exotic styles.

He plans to visit local officials and deepen the company's presence there. After all, this is the logistics base of the company's exploration in Libya, and it is also appropriate to visit it for the benefit of the company. Although the government has provided escorts for the exploration team, this attitude is enough to attract the attention of local officials. But sometimes there may be something wrong, after all, the county officials are not as good as the current management.
