When the Olympic Games officially kicked off, as far away as Lake Guadavida in Colombia, South America, the drilling team from Standard Oil also officially started work.
About two months ago, the drilling team entered Colombia from Barranquilla. With the information provided by Li Mu, the drilling team did not take much effort to find Lake Guadavida and Lake Guadavida less than 50 kilometers from Bogota. The area is not large, this is the sacred lake of the legendary Indians, and Li Mu is not sure that the legendary treasure is at the bottom of the lake, but in the 21st century, the official blockade of Colombia is indeed here, which provides Li Mu with the most reliable data.
The drilling team was jointly formed by Li Mu and Rockefeller, so there are also two people in charge. Li Mu's people are mainly responsible for security. They are led by Paul Stewart, who has already been named a "Senior Explorer"; Rockefeller's people are responsible for construction and lead the team It's Thomas Toynbee, Standard Oil's South American business manager.
Unlike the young Paul Stewart, Thomas Toynbee is over fifty years old, but it is well maintained, very energetic, and has rich experience. He and Paul Stewart can complement each other. Paul Stewart Although I have experience, I am still a bit younger after all. When I encounter something, it is more direct. If I can solve it with violence, I will never talk nonsense.
This is understandable, the arms dealers, and the background of mercenaries, such people are the best thugs.
Facts have proved that Li Mu and Rockefeller's worries are by no means unfounded. Gold City is well-known. Although no one has found Gold City for so many years, there are a lot of explorers wandering in the South American jungle, just one day before the Olympics. At night, an expedition accidentally broke into the blockade set up by the mercenaries, which annoyed Paul Stewart, so Paul Stewart personally took someone to handle the matter.
"Good morning." Thomas Toynbee saw Paul Stewart just out of the tent. Although Thomas Toynbee wanted to ask Paul Stewart how to deal with those explorers, Thomas Toynbee finally Still suppressed the urge.
There is no need to ask, even if a few meters away, Thomas Toynbee can smell the strong **** smell of Paul Stewart. You do n’t need to know that the expedition team must have ended badly yesterday, maybe it will disappear in the vastness In the endless tropical jungle, this kind of thing is normal. There are often expeditions disappearing after entering the tropical rain forest. No one will investigate this matter, whether it is the investors behind the expedition or the expedition team. Family, they all have this mental preparation.
"Good morning Thomas, the alarm is lifted. I hope you have a good mood today." Paul Stewart greeted lazily, as if he had not been awake, and he would have to go back to his tent to make up for it. He should not be here again today. There was an accident like yesterday.
Expedition teams do not meet often. Many expeditions know each other, so everyone starts in different directions as if they have a tacit understanding. No one wants to meet other people in the tropical jungle. In the tropical jungle, people are more than wild animals. Terrible, this is a hidden rule in the adventure industry.
So if there is no accident, the expedition that broke into the blockade yesterday should be the only expedition nearby. The next time someone enters the area, at least ten days later.
This deadline is a bit cruel, which also means that since Paul Stewart and Thomas Toynbee came to Lake Guadavia, this is the sixth expedition they have encountered.
"I'm afraid you can't take a break from Paul. Today, Bogota officials will come to inspect, so-you only have about two hours." Thomas Toynbee is sorry, if it is just a normal drilling, Thomas Toynby is not Need Paul Stewart's help, but unfortunately this is not so Paul Stewart has to stay awake.
Do n’t think that Paul Stewart ’s existence is just to prepare for the expedition. Colombia ’s officials are also the object of Paul Stewart ’s defense. The drilling team entered Colombia to find oil in Bogota. Bogota welcomes standard oil to find oil, but it is not Standard Oil came to search for treasure, so since the drilling team came to Lake Guadavia, Bogota officials have been very diligent. About every three days, Bogota officials will come to inspect.
Of course, this will affect the "normal" work of the drilling team, but the good news is that officials in Bogota are not clear about the true purpose of the drilling team. They are looking to see if the drilling team has actually found oil, if any, That means that the Colombian government has an extra stable source of finance, which is the purpose of Bogotá.
"Two hours is enough. Call me at that time and remember to hide your things." Paul Stewart didn't care. The mercenaries did not have a fixed schedule when they were working, so Paul Stewart and his men had long been Learned to take any chance to rest. When these mercenaries are resting, even if they shoot in their ears, it is estimated that they will not wake up.
"Oh, rest assured, it's all hidden." Thomas Toynbee was not idle while Paul Stewart was working.
The information provided by Li Mu is still very accurate. Although the work has just begun, the drilling team has already gained something. Just when the expedition team suddenly broke in yesterday, the pumping workers accidentally found a batch of gold objects. Hundreds of pieces, but this is enough to excite Thomas Toynbee.
As a Rockefeller confidant, Thomas Toynbee certainly knew the purpose of their trip. Although Thomas Toynbee did not participate in the previous Paul Stewart's treasure hunt in India, Thomas Toynbee knew that as long as he participated in the previous Treasure hunters have basically made a fortune, so Thomas Toynbee is still looking forward to this treasure hunt.
The temporary camps of Paul Stewart and Thomas Toynbee are located next to Lake Guadavia. Due to the large number of drilling teams, the temporary camps occupy a large area. According to the standards of mercenaries, each tent can only be at most There are four people living there, and now there are ten people in the tent, so the temporary camp is still expanding.
It was early in the morning, and the temporary camp was a bit busy. Early workers and mercenaries were washing, and a few of them were too aggressive, jumping directly into Lake Guadavia to take a bath, which made Thomas Toynbee's life very bright. Before they set off, Li Mu had three orders and five applications. He must pay great attention to health issues. July is the hottest day. There are impervious air in the rainforest. Workers and mercenaries are required to wear long pants and trousers when they work. Some people In order to prevent mosquito bites, I even put on a veil. In more than two months, the drilling team has fallen ill with more than a dozen people. The guys who took a shower were probably tired. Thomas Toynbee didn't care if they died. Not dead, but it would be awful if outbreaks of infectious diseases are caused by their carelessness.
"Roll up to you guys, I'm glad to inform you that your breakfast is gone today, if you let me catch the next time, then you guys will pack things for me." Thomas Toynbee was not angry, It doesn't matter if you want to die, don't pull others on.
At the gate of the temporary camp, several workers were busy working around a faulty pump. In order to drain the water from Lake Guadavia, forty pumps were working next to the camp. Four generators were responsible for providing power to those pumps. .
The pump has to work around the clock, and the quality of the machine is not good enough this year. This has not started, and one pump has failed to run. Fortunately, Li Mu had already prepared for this. Two engineers from the Steed Lab were dispatched. Provide technical support here.
"When can I get it back to work?" Thomas Toynbee, the engineer at Steed Labs, is more polite. The knowledge is expensive these days, and engineer training is not easy. Thomas Toynbee was instructed by Rockefeller before he arrived. Regardless of whether or not a treasure can be found, engineers must be protected at all costs.
"I don't know yet, it seems that there is a problem with the engine, and the parts have to be delivered from the warehouse in Bogota, we try to." A worker looked up and answered, his face was not very optimistic.
Taking a closer look at Thomas Toynbee, he did not find an engineer at Steed Lab. It was estimated that the two were still asleep, so Thomas Toynbee broke out immediately: "Give me the quickest fix, otherwise you guys Just pick me up. If you delay the project, you should be careful. "
Scolding all the way out of the camp, watching Lake Guadavia where the water level had started to drop significantly, Thomas Toynbee finally felt better.
A drilling team captain ran all the way, carrying a backpack provided by the steeds in his hand, the backpack was bulging, apparently full.
"Mr. Thomas, we found some specimens just now." The captain's expression was very happy. Finding the "specimen" means extra income. As a direct discoverer, the captain's commission will be higher.
The "specimen" is gold. In Colombia, the drilling team is more cautious. All the names related to the treasure are coded. For example, "specimen" refers to gold, and "ore" refers to gems, regardless of any People, in any case, must refer to these things with code names instead.
"Very good, directly to Mr. Leslie, and those who told you, please be careful with me today, don't show the filling." Thomas Toynbee's mood finally got better, but then There was another annoyance. Bogota officials will come later. In case Bogota officials discover the treasures in Lake Guadavia, then it will be troublesome. Not to mention Paul Stewart.
Tropical jungles, no accidents happen. Do n’t think that only expeditions will disappear unexpectedly. The same is true for officials. The endless jungle can bury all conspiracy and crime. If Paul Stewart is willing, they can even use the knife. When you fire a gun, you only need to bundle people into the jungle, and then only one night, those wild animals in the jungle will completely break down a person.
The kind without bones.
"Otherwise, we can try to postpone the construction. Those pumps have been working for 48 hours continuously, allowing engineers to check the condition of the pumps." Spark Piccole is Thomas Toynbee's deputy, and Leslie is another one.
According to the information provided by Li Mu, the treasure is at the bottom of the lake. In order to improve the efficiency, the drilling team has to evacuate all the lake water. A big trouble is that Thomas Toynbee did not know where the treasure was, so they could not control it. The progress of the project, in the event that officials from Bogotá came, just when gold jewellery came out of the water, everything could not be recovered.
"You can't stop all, stop half of the pumps for maintenance, and the other half continue to work. After this half is overhauled, and then overhaul the other half." Thomas Toynbee did not want to stop the work, and wanted to find the treasure as soon as possible, on the other hand, it was also to hide the eyes Bogota officials are not stupid. If people come and find that all the machines are stopped, then problems will definitely be found.
The capitalists have always pursued maximizing the benefits. It is normal for people to be used as animals and animals as machines. Now that there are machines, they must be around the clock, or they will be sorry for the reputation of the capitalists.
After some frustration, when the officials of Bogota came to Lake Guadavia, it was already more than 11 am. Because of the bad traffic conditions, the official named Marcos was carried by a group of locals. Marcos' body size, this guy weighs almost 250 pounds, which is really hard for these locals.
"Mr. Marcos, you're welcome." Thomas Toynbee's smile was so refreshing, and Paul Stewart's face was not very nice behind him.
Anyone who wakes up from their sleep will not be in a good mood. This is the so-called "getting up".
"Oh, Mr. Thomas, Mr. Paul, you are really dedicated. This **** weather can heat people up. I feel like I want to jump into the steamer. Mr. Rockefeller can find employees like you. It is Mr. Rockefeller's luck. "When Marcos came up, he started to complain. His physique was really not suitable for entering the rainforest. He was uncomfortable, and the people who carried him were even more uncomfortable.
The Bogota government does not wait to see Li Mu and the Steed Group, so Paul Stewart also entered Colombia as an employee of Standard Oil. Marcos does n’t care about his ability, and he is very good at making a flattery.
"No, no, it is our luck to work for Mr. Rockefeller." Thomas Toynbee immediately clarified that this mistake cannot be made, a matter of principle.
