Chapter 158 I deserve to be rich, I signed a Overlord Contract
Qi Xiaona watched with interest as a group of experts were busy in the forest.
They set up a small laboratory not far away to take samples and tests...
Just as the drilling device was about to be put in place, David and Hough came to stop them with a group of cowboys.
They almost had a conflict with the staff, and the scene was tense.
Wang Lei hurriedly came to stop:
"Uncle David, is something wrong? Why are you obstructing our investigation?"
"No, the instrument you brought is obviously going to drill into the ground and will destroy the original geology of my forest. If the fir trees wither because of this, will you be responsible?"
The geological expert waved his hands helplessly. He had repeatedly emphasized that it was just a small hole drilled and would not affect the geology, but this group of people refused to listen to any of his explanations.
Wang Lei pulled the leading expert aside:
"Hey, man, can you tell if this land is fertile by sampling now?"
"Boss, of course it is possible. After preliminary investigation by our plant experts, we found that there is a big problem in this woodland. These fir trees should be some years old, but they are a little short and the fir trees are also a little small. The yield of fir pollen is and quality will be greatly reduced as a result..."
"We are still testing the soil quality, and the results should be available soon."
Hearing this, Wang Lei nodded. The plant expert was the first to see the problem. The land was very barren and not suitable for planting fir trees or even other fruit trees.
Geological experts want to further analyze the soil quality to determine whether it is suitable for growing other crops.
At this moment, an assistant trotted to the expert's side and whispered something.
"Boss, great discovery!"
“Why is it suitable for growing other crops?”
"No, we found a lot of carbon and hydrogen elements in the soil, along with small amounts of sulfur, nitrogen, and oxygen!"
Wang Lei was a little confused listening to the professional terminology:
"Is there anything wrong with that?"
“Normal soil should contain organic carbon, total nitrogen, total phosphorus, total potassium, alkali hydrolyzable nitrogen, available phosphorus, available potassium and other components.
But now the sulfur, nitrogen, and oxygen content in this soil exceeds the standard. We estimate that there is crude oil hidden under this forest! "
Wang Lei's heart skipped a beat when he heard about crude oil. It couldn't be such a coincidence. He just wanted to buy a few pieces of land.
Wang Lei's voice couldn't help but become a little weaker: "Is this possible?"
The person in charge of the team also whispered:
"It is possible. This is California. The oil reserves are estimated to account for 1/5 of the United States. There is no precedent for discovering oil in farmland. Many people became rich overnight."
Wang Lei suddenly thought of the oil boom that broke out in North Dakota at the beginning of the 21st century. If oil companies wanted to exploit the discovered oil, they had to give landowners 1/8 to 1/6 of the net oil profits. As a result, North Dakota had a million dollars a day. A rich man's statement.
The discovery of oil in this forest was just a small surprise for Wang Lei. He was more concerned about the oil layout in North Dakota.
In a few years, he plans to list Husky in the United States. If he first uses his private foundation to buy the land, and then sells the mining rights to Husky...
Thinking of this, he ordered the leader of the team:
"Don't spread this news yet. When the rodeo starts, the guard here will be lax. Then you can bring people to take further samples. If oil is really discovered, I am willing to give your team a bonus of [-] US dollars."
Seeing the leader's surprised look, Wang Lei continued:
"Every time you discover an oil mine in the future, I will give you a corresponding reward."
The person in charge nodded. They had signed a high-level confidentiality agreement and betrayed their employer's interests. Not only would they have to face high breach of contract fees, but their reputation in this industry would also be ruined.
……
After seeing that there was no movement from the survey team, David breathed a sigh of relief and found Wang Lei:
"Lee, your people have messed up my woodland. To buy or not to buy, I hope you will give me an answer as soon as possible."
David looked unhappy, but felt uneasy in his heart, and the urging was more of a temptation.
Wang Lei tapped the table with his fingers and asked simply:
"Uncle David, please tell me your price. If it's suitable, I can make a decision immediately."
Hearing this, David was extremely surprised. Looking at this, Wang Lei didn't notice the fishy nature of the forest after a lot of trouble?
He suddenly felt nervous, stretched out his palm and gestured:
"$5000 an acre!"
"Uncle David, as far as I know, the current market price per acre is only US$4000. Do you think I have a lot of money, so you want a lion to eat it?"
David hurriedly denied:
"How could it be? This was left to us by my father's father. In order to occupy this land, many people in our family died. It is of great significance to our family."
Wang Lei sneered in his heart, directly revealing the secret in David's heart:
"But as far as I know, your land is not suitable for growing any crops, and it is not a fertile land!"
"Lee, our family treats you as a friend and treats you with the best beef and food. Why are you so slanderous?"
Wang Lei didn't listen to his excuses and directly stretched out three fingers:
"$3000 per acre is my final offer, please consider it carefully."
"Okay, deal!"
David responded immediately.
In his opinion, even if this land is used for rough-resistant pine trees, the yield of pine pollen is frighteningly low. If someone is willing to pay for it, he will get a big advantage.
200 acres can be resold for $60. He can buy another 150 acres of fertile land.
David seemed to be prepared. He took out a written contract and motioned for Wang Lei to sign it.
The accompanying lawyer saw the flaws in the contract at a glance and whispered in Wang Lei's ear:
"Boss, there is a big problem with this contract. He has repeatedly emphasized that no matter if there is any problem with the land after the sale is completed, no one can hold each other accountable, no refunds will be given, and no contract will be broken."
"Can I understand that no matter what happens, the contract cannot be terminated?"
"That's understandable."
"Okay, help me add a clause in the contract. No matter how much profit the land makes in the future, it will have nothing to do with Stephen's family."
When Wang Lei proposed this, David was alerted. Could this land really be used to grow other crops? Otherwise, Wang Lei would still be willing to take over after he discovered the problem?
"Lee, what do you want to do with this land?"
"Haha, I'm going to build a horse farm on it and grow some crops to get the tax breaks for horse farms."
David nodded. He had considered opening a racecourse, but it was a billionaire's toy, and the money was obviously not something he could make.
He couldn't help but start to be jealous of Wang Lei's wealth. How could this kid be so good at reincarnation?
In order to complete the transaction, David did not hesitate to sign his name on the newly revised contract.
After fully signing the contract, both of them smiled knowingly.
