Yang Jing and his team rented an AgustaWestland AW109Power helicopter produced in Italy. This twin-engine, eight-seat multi-purpose helicopter has a wide range of applications around the world. Even in the United States, this medium-sized helicopter is very popular.

The helicopter circled over Beaumont for two days, and finally Yang Jing chose a group of old oil wells about 1.1 kilometers away from the old oil well he had auctioned last time.

This group of old oil wells is similar to the old oil well acquired in the last auction. There are many old oil wells like this near the "big mountain" in Beaumont.

When Captain Anthony Lucas drilled the world's first super oil well with a daily output of 10,000 tons at Spindletop, this place attracted the attention of the whole United States.

On January 10, 1901, a strong blowout occurred in the well drilled by Anthony Lucas. Within a year, oil derricks stood up densely in this small area like mushrooms after rain. In some places, derricks were close to each other, and people could step from one drilling platform to another without touching the ground. By the end of 1901, a total of 138 oil wells were put into production in the Spindletop Oil Field, most of which were high-yield oil wells. The crude oil production of the United States once again surpassed that of Russia and became the world's largest oil producer.

However, at that time, people were only busy coming here to extract oil, and no one cared about the specific reserves of the Spindletop Oilfield.

But later people speculated that the reserves of the Spindletop Oil Field definitely exceeded 200 million tons.

After all, those 138 oil wells were all high-yield wells. In that era, according to the standard of high-yield wells with a daily output of 1,000 tons, the average daily output of these 138 oil wells exceeded 10,000 barrels, or about 1,500 tons per day. Don't forget that after Captain Lucas drilled the first well with a daily output of 10,000 tons, the next dozen or so oil wells were all high-yield wells with a daily output of over 10,000 tons.

The well drilled by Captain Lucas alone produced 20 million barrels of crude oil in these two years!

The Spindletop Oilfield was mined for a total of six years before entering a period of depletion. During the first two years of its high production period alone, these 138 old oil wells produced a total of 150 million tons of crude oil.

According to the calculation that the recoverable reserves at that time were only 20% of the surveyed reserves, the Spindletop Oil Field alone had crude oil reserves of up to 750 million tons, making it an absolutely large oil field.

Of course, the Spindletop Oilfield is composed of numerous oil reservoirs, just like the old oil well that Yang Jing photographed last time, which is actually located above a separate oil reservoir. In that large oil bubble, there are tens of millions of tons of crude oil. As a result, more than 70% of the unrecoverable heavy oil eventually became a bargain for Yang Jing.

The group of eight old oil wells that Yang Jing and his team have found are located in the same area. It is estimated that this was also a high-yield oil field at that time, otherwise those oil developers would not have drilled eight wells here in a row.

However, Yang Jing and his team did not know whether these eight old oil wells were included in the auction. However, since these eight old oil wells had been sealed, even if they were not included in the auction, they could find their owners and buy them directly.

Of course, this kind of work was left to Lin Dan.

For Yang Jing, the income from the oil field is just an extra joy. These old oil wells are just providers of natural treasures for Yang Jing. Yang Jing auctioned the old oil wells not for making money at first, but for the natural treasures inside. As a result, after absorbing the natural treasures, the thick oil in the oil reservoir underwent a wonderful change, which can be regarded as an unexpected surprise.

If Yang Jing's original intention was to make money, he would not have given the old oil well to Guo Dabao for free.

Since he learned that the holy ring had such a magical function, making money was no longer a difficult thing for Yang Jing. It was like knowing that you could easily earn tens or even hundreds of billions of dollars, and even have a huge impact on the global oil landscape, then money would be the least important thing to you.

Not to mention that Yang Jing and Guo Xiaoxiang have such a good relationship. Guo Dabao took good care of Yang Jing when he was in trouble. In addition, Yang Jing knew very well that he did not know how to extract oil and did not understand the operation of a mining company. That was why he thought of giving the old oil well to Guo Dabao for free, as a reward for Guo Dabao's care for him over the years.

In the end, no matter what Guo Dabao said, he disagreed, but finally he accepted the 30% component sent by Guo Dabao.

Yang Jing doesn't care about the old oil well worth billions, so why would he care about those three components?

It is indeed quite comfortable to eat alone, but you also have to have the ability to eat alone! Many people may think that after Yang Jing took the photo of the old oil well, he could sell the oil well to the Americans through other means and make a billion or eight hundred million dollars at once, but is the truth really that simple?

You are a Chinese who is picking up the Americans' leaks on American soil. If it's a few million or tens of millions, maybe the Americans will agree, but this kind of oil mine worth tens of billions of dollars, you try it! To put it bluntly, a foreigner like you, Yang Jing, who has no name, no identity, and no status, wants to go against those oil tycoons in the United States. It's simply courting death.

For those wealthy and powerful oil tycoons, killing you, Yang Jing, would only take a few minutes.

Bill Gates is awesome, right? He is an American, but what happened to him? Didn't those shameless politicians almost split up Microsoft for their own benefit? Is Saddam awesome? He was the president of a country, but what happened to him in the end? The whole world knows! Those American politicians turned a country into hell for their own benefit!
