The Largest Oil Field Ever (1)

“An ultra-large oil field surpassing Saudi Arabia!?”

Murmur, murmur!

Saudi Arabia is home to the most prominent oil tycoons.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that the nation’s wealth comes entirely from selling oil, with so much of it being produced.

The role of leading Middle Eastern countries is also due to their possession of energy resources.

In a world where wars break out over energy resources, the discovery of an ultra-large oil field could bring about enormous repercussions.

More than anything, it could lead to a more difficult situation if there isn’t the power to protect it.

“I hear trembling voices from everywhere.”

“Where exactly was it discovered?”

“It’s in the seabed that doesn’t belong to any country. So, keep that in mind and look for ways to process and export the crude oil.”

“Processing crude oil isn’t difficult. Exporting is no problem either. However, I’m not sure if the powerful nations will stand still.”

It was a nameless executive speaking.

There were so many executives that it was impossible to remember all their faces.

I lightly shrugged my shoulders.

“The powerful nations will stand still.”

“Is this a negotiated matter?”

“You can see it that way.”

Negotiated?

To be precise, it’s not a negotiation but intimidation.

I just had to make them negotiate through strong intimidation.

Each country already knew that I had used my influence on the United States and Russia. That meant I could use my influence if things went wrong.

In fact, what I did to the United States and Russia was a crime, and if they had the power, they wouldn’t have buried it like this.

So, even if I accumulate wealth through the oil business, no country will impose sanctions.

“The location of the oil field is confidential. However, we will build a pipeline to pump crude oil from there, so refine the oil in Korea.”

“Hmm.”

“Then I’ll go to Soo Refinery.”

Lee Seul-ki and I got up from our seats.

The stone I threw was causing ripples.

Regardless, Lee Seul-ki and I decided to head to Soo Refinery.

Soo Refinery headquarters, located in Incheon.

The reason it’s located not far from Incheon Port is, of course, because Korea’s oil is entirely dependent on imports.

For now, the location of the oil field was kept secret, but it couldn’t stay that way forever.

Then, we should create a huge underground space and connect a pipeline directly to it to extract oil from the other world.

That way, Korea would become the origin of oil.

When that happens, no one will pay attention to my words. It will be said that I mentioned somewhere in the seabed for confidentiality.

While I was organizing my thoughts, I almost arrived at the company.

“What are you thinking so hard about?”

“How to make Korea the largest oil-producing country.”

“How?”

“I should say that a huge oil field is buried in Incheon.”

“Ha, in Incheon?”

“Yes. We need to create a huge oil storage and connect the oil extracted from the other world through a pipe directly to this place.”

“Is that possible?”

“It’s possible.”

I will try to conceal the information.

Anyway, after visiting Soo Refinery, I need to contact government officials.

It seems best to talk to the President about the restrictions on weapons and the sale of oil.

The President still has about two and a half years left in his term, so it’s not the time for his power to wane.

If I push things forward through the President, I can get help without much difficulty.

If that happens, President Lee Han-jin will be able to take a huge amount of taxes from me.

Click!

As the car door opened, Soo Refinery executives appeared.

Again, I didn’t know their names well.

“Welcome, Chairman! It’s an honor to meet you!”

“Nice to meet you.”

“I’m CEO Oh In-seok.”

Lee Seul-ki whispered to me.

“CEO Oh, are there any problems with the refinery?”

“We import crude oil and export it after refining it here. There are no problems at all.”

“What is the level of Soo Refinery’s technology?”

“It’s world-class.”

Korea does not produce energy on its own, but it is world-class in other secondary industries.

For example, nuclear power plants, separating and refining crude oil, and creating eco-friendly energy.

I could say that we have developed in a supplementary way as much as possible, rather than being an oil-producing country.

That’s why Soo Refinery also had top-notch technology.

CEO Oh In-seok probably doesn’t know why I’m asking these questions, but it was a very important issue for me.

“Would you like to see the factory?”

“No. I came here because I have something important to tell you.”

“Then I’ll take you to my office.”

“Let’s do that.”

They also need to know that Korea has become an oil-producing country.

Since it has been announced, a huge aftermath will probably hit tomorrow. Of course, I won’t be here tomorrow.

CEO Oh In-seok’s office.

After checking that there were no listening devices in this room, I continued the story.

“CEO, Korea is going to become an oil-producing country.”

“……!”

“Hmm. How should I explain this?”

“Please tell me.”

“An oil field has been discovered in the sea that does not belong to any country. The size of the oil field surpasses the entire Saudi Arabia!”

“Heo!”

“Do you have the technology to pump up the oil field?”

“Um. I don’t know about the seabed, but we already have the technology to pump up oil fields from most of the land. It’s already well-known that our Soo Refinery has partnered with S Construction to build drilling facilities in Saudi Arabia.”

It was a word filled with quite a bit of pride.

So, Soo Refinery’s technology is already world-class.

It would be difficult to pump oil from the deep seabed, but it is possible to drill for oil in the ground.

“Good. The drilling site is an island. I’ll just say this much. You need to build facilities there. So, please provide intensive training to the people I send.”

“Construction technology?”

“Yes. S Construction, which I used to work with, has already become a company of the Soo Group, so you can share it with them and teach the technology.”

“But Chairman. Even so, technicians must go to the site in person.”

“Can’t you just transfer the technology?”

“At least the construction manager has to go. And they have to be deployed.”

“Hmm.”

Lee Seul-ki, who was listening to the story quietly, said.

“I think CEO Oh is right. Professional technicians are needed on site.”

“Okay. Then please send people to the headquarters by this evening.”

“This evening!”

“Yes. And start producing the materials right away. Please try to complete and send the goods within a week.”

“Heo! Even so, a week!?”

“You can think of it as your promotion at stake.”

“……!”

CEO Oh In-seok’s eyes are shaking.

He also knew well how quickly the Soo Group was developing.

If you can become an executive at Soo Group headquarters, the power is beyond imagination. It was a power far beyond that of most government officials.

Everyone was trying to get to that position.

And soon after, Oh In-seok straightened his posture.

“I’ll do whatever it takes.”

“Good. It’s a week.”

“Yes! Leave it to me!”

“You can use all the resources of the company for this. I will give you the authority to make all decisions only for that matter.”

His eyes sparkled.

He is intuitively thinking that this project will be a huge undertaking.

Oh In-seok nodded.

“Thank you.”

I slowly got up from my seat.

Now that I have solved the problem with oil, it was time to meet the President at the Blue House [the executive office and official residence of the South Korean president].

The Blue House of Korea.

I seemed to be meeting President Lee Han-jin often these days, but it was inevitable in order to trade through dimensions.

Above all, the development and production of weapons were essential to dominate the continent, but there were restrictions on the various weapons made by Soo Heavy Industries.

Soo Heavy Industries and chemical affiliates were combined to create a huge defense company, but it was still limited to simply manufacturing ammunition and various weapon parts.

Since they were unable to produce finished products, it was necessary to lift the restrictions on them.

Of course, I could have done it by force, but I didn’t want to harm my country.

It may have been only 10 days for Lee Han-jin, but I had devoted more than a month to the war. That’s why I felt a sense of time difference.

“Haha, we meet again.”

“It’s been two months for me, but I think it’s because of the time difference.”

“Is that so? It’s still a mysterious place. The Karen Continent.”

He was one of the few people in Korea, or even on Earth, who knew about the existence of the Karen Continent.

This was not because I trusted the President, but because there were many times when I needed his power.

We share everyday stories.

Of course, most of those everyday stories were enough to shake the global economy, but I didn’t care much.

I knew very well that the world’s economy would be swallowed up by my hands over time, even though I didn’t know much about management.

Lee Han-jin would think so too.

“At this rate, you will dominate the world’s economy. The Soo Group will have power beyond one country.”

“It already is.”

“Accordingly, it is a foregone conclusion that our Republic of Korea will also benefit greatly. I will provide as much support as possible until my term ends. What do you need?”

Giveth and taketh.

If Lee Han-jin helps me, the Korean economy will develop.

We were in a win-win relationship, so our relationship was very good.

“I have one good news and another news that will upset the President a little. Which one should I tell you first?”

“Hmm. It is said that it is better to be hit first. I will hear the bad news first.”

“I don’t know if this will be bad news, but I would like you to lift the various regulations on Soo Heavy Industries.”

“Regulations… What’s the good news?”

“I am now an emperor who has swallowed half of the continent, and I have confirmed that there is an oil field in the eastern part of the empire that surpasses the entire Saudi Arabia.”

“……!”
