I will resign and go to Australia - I will resign and go to Australia chapter 188

188 episodes. The back of the head is the back of the head.

Arcaringa Basin.

It is located in southern Australia, 150 km north of Coober Pedy.

Coober Pedy is the world’s largest opal producer.

Because of that, industry officials only looked at the opal mine near Coober Pedy, and thought that such a dielectric layer had never been found.

In any case, it was the first time I discovered the world’s second largest oil deposit, Arcaringa Basin.

Of course, in terms of profitability, there are more things to consider, but there was no shortage of cards to use against politicians.

Because topicality is the most important thing to them.

“This is an oil field discovered in the Arcaringa Basin Basin in southern Australia. As I said, the reserves are 230 billion barrels. If you look at the reserves alone, it will be about 20 trillion Australian dollars.”

When converted to Korean Won, it is equivalent to about 3,000 trillion won.

There is no such thing as impact.

“Huh, huh, huh, huh, huh. 20 trillion Australian dollars.”

Even Henry, a media tycoon, made a face that seemed to have lost his mind for a moment, as if he did not realize the amount.

“Aside from that, there is another advantage in terms of topicality.”

“I think that’s enough, what else?”

“Shale oil is the oil that the US is pushing for policy.”

Australia is an ally of the United States, and relations with each other are very friendly.

Arkaringa Basin’s shale oil is a policy that can empower the United States.

Wouldn’t it be welcomed by Australian politicians?

“Heh heh, it’s a good cause, and it’s worth it, so it’s one stone and two pairs.”

It is necessary to examine the feasibility of the shale oil field, but it does not need to be so specific, as it will appear that it is only necessary to scoop it up from the ground to those who are not technically ignorant.

All we need to do is pass a bill to create a sovereign wealth fund.

After that, even if Arcaringa Basin is not profitable, it is enough to replace it with another mine.

“Coming out of the government, how is the resource surplus tax proceeding?”

“It will start to be applied collectively from next year. Companies also agreed.”

Whoa, it’s finally going.

It seems that the steps of politicians who are trying to collect tax revenue can be slowed down, but cannot be stopped.

“What is the tax rate?”

“Crude oil and natural gas have been fixed at 40% of revenue, and mineral resources, including iron ore, will be reduced to 30%.”

Like these day robbers.

“Secretary Norman doesn’t seem to have much power.”

Energy Minister Greg Norman.

When we met at the Melbourne Cup, he discovered pancreatic cancer and told Henry about it.

“I think he can help lower the tax on mineral resources. And don’t worry, paying taxes isn’t bad news for us.”

“Yeah? Not bad news?”

“I asked the political figures who supported us to put the money raised from those taxes into the sovereign wealth fund. Most of them agreed.”

It is said that Greg Norman played a big role in this part, and his friend Peter Waltz, who has a wide foot in politics, also helped a lot.

“Secretary Norman has paid the price for his life.”

“Isn’t health the most important thing for an old man who has both money and fame. Heh heh.”

I would.

Since I also have abundance, health is my top priority.

A lot has changed when I think about the past when I even worked part-time jobs for money.

“By the way, how about Seongsam C&T?”

It must have been time to start working hard on infrastructure construction.

“The first shipment date has been set. And the trouble has occurred as if waiting.”

Henry explained the situation with a funny expression on his face.

Export of iron ore mined at Louis Hill.

Customer Baosantz Metal set the date a month later, and it is said that supply was in good condition except for sudden natural disasters.

Although the railroad construction from Louis Hill to Port Hedland had not yet been completed, the road was completed, so it could be transported inland by truck.

But there was a problem with that road.

“The road is lost?”

“It’s been raining for a while now, so it’s been raining heavily. And the roads are all messed up. It’s impossible to transport right now.”

When it rains in the western desert, it rains all at once.

But if rainwater washes away the road, doesn’t it mean there is a problem with drainage?

“What did Seongsam C&T say?”

“He said he didn’t have enough experience with the Australian climate, so he wasn’t prepared for such a heavy rain.”

what kind of shit is that

Isn’t it the topography and climate to basically check when construction is carried out in a foreign country?

“I also said this. The road was planned as a temporary measure for use until the completion of the railroad, so the maintenance part was not completely considered in the design. Also, they had no choice but to reduce the cost due to the reduced budget they originally thought. He also claimed that he didn’t.”

It was decided that way in Jencock.

It is said that the railroad is the main and the road is the concept of a spare transportation route.

But I fell on it, and I’m stuck with my cut budget.

It was pitiful, but somehow he was trying to make excuses to delay the shipment.

“I think the climate, Jencock’s guidelines, and even cut budgets have made a hole in the way.”

“I would think it’s perfect for others. Heh heh heh.”

“I will respond to Baosantz Metal. When will Seongsam C&T meet?”

“I’m going to do it in a week.”

“Is that person in charge then?”

“That’s right, Mr. Do is in charge.”

It was manager Do Yunho, maybe?

“Are you the vice president?”

“Mr. Seo has returned to Korea since then. But won’t he come this time? The problem of breaking the first delivery date is usually not a big deal.”

Yes, Vice President Seo Jeong-soo should also come.

“I wonder what kind of expression he will make.”

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.

The back of the head is the back of the head.

***

A week later.

The meeting took place at the P&B Tower.

Originally a joint venture created for the development of Louis Hill, it was appropriate to have it at the Port Hedland or Louis Hill site where Louis Hill Holdings is located.

However, as the majority shareholder of Louis Hill Holdings and Lina Dainhart delegated full control over the related matters, P&B Tower took care of it.

“Thanks to you, our vice president did not have to take a long step. Thank you for your consideration.”

Do Yun-ho greeted him and added kind words.

“It doesn’t matter. We’re just sitting here and calling you.”

There’s no need for favors between us, right?

From now on, we have to bite and tear each other apart.

“Let’s get right to the point. What do you think about this incident at Seongsam C&T?”

Do Yunho firmly answered my question.

“I think it was force majeure.”

“Are you speaking as the person in charge of the corporation, or is it the position of Seongsam C&T?”

Next, Seo Jeong-soo set the face of a subordinate.

“Both. Our company prioritizes the judgment of the person in charge of the site.”

“That’s right.”

I nodded roughly and turned on the beam projector.

Then, on the blinds, a scene photo of the road connecting Louis Hill and Port Hedland came up.

“Can you see? There are fifteen places where the road is cut off during the rainy season. Only the ones that maintain the shape of the road, but there are also five or six places where the traces themselves have disappeared.”

“The amount of precipitation was more than I expected. It’s a natural disaster.”

I smiled and moved on to the next page.

It was data measuring the amount of precipitation in the Pilbara region over the past decade.

“Look. The level similar to this year has happened several times in the past. Don’t you think there is insufficient evidence to drive it to a natural disaster?”

“That alone cannot tell. Especially, this heavy rain fell intensively in a short period of three days.”

“Okay. So how about this one?”

Turning to the next page, a map appeared showing the road between Port Hedland and Louis Hill.

“Why are you suddenly showing the map?”

At Do Yunho’s question, I pressed the enter key once more.

Points marked in red appeared on the screen.

“Now, these are the places where roads are cut off or lost this time.”

“……?”

“And see you next.”

In the next chapter, the points where red and black overlapped, and where only black remained, appeared.

For a moment, Do Yun-ho’s face hardened.

“It seems like you know too.”

“…what do you mean?”

Shichimi is gone.

It is obvious that the facial muscles are stiff.

“Isn’t this the place where you worked with special care during construction? It makes the foundation more vulnerable to heavy rains, such as poorly built foundations or messes up drainage channels, and sometimes takes care to make the road surface easily damaged when trucks come and go.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about. Are you sure we did that on purpose? What evidence?”

“I instructed Louis Hill Holdings to check the places marked over there, compared with other places. Of course, the field managers there were also present.”

“……!”

Both of their pupils are getting bigger and their backs are starting to get wet.

you’ll be nervous

Because the site is the most convincing evidence.

“It will be revealed soon, but it hasn’t been confirmed right away, so let’s move on to the next, shall we?”

The next screen was a breakdown of the materials Seongsam C&T used for infrastructure construction.

“This is cheap, that is cheap, this is also cheap. You’ve been painting all over the place at a low price. Are you going to throw away a 7 trillion-dollar project just to save 600 billion won? lose.”

“What is this statement? I don’t think it’s the data we shared with Louis Hill Holdings.”

“Chief, do you not remember or are you taking the shichimi?”

I went down to the bottom and showed the part with Do Yunho’s autograph.

“He even signed his own autograph. If necessary, I’ll try handwriting.”

“……!”

Do Yun-ho bit his molars and tried to keep his composure.

but i saw

Watching his heart beating wildly.

“You may be wondering, how did we get this material?”

“……”

“Aren’t you going to admit it to the end? Whoa, come in.”

At my call, the door of the meeting room opened and a middle-aged man entered.

Seo Jeong-soo and Do Yun-ho looked at his face and looked as if they had seen a grim reaper.

“Mr. Brown, you may want to go out again. It seems like everyone admits that your face is reflected.”

When he went out again, I smiled and asked the two of them.

“Now do you know? Well, I’m telling you in case you misunderstand Mr. Brown, he didn’t buy it with money, but he had been talking to us before signing the contract with you guys. It would be better not to.”

“When do you get sick? Maybe it’s from the time you thought of us?”

Seo Jung-soo asked, leaving Yun-ho, who had gone mad, behind him.

“You mean that restaurant?”

“Yeah, didn’t you think about it while showing the same place you met with Andy of Foresque Metal at the time, the food, etc.”

“That’s right. I was sure then, that you’ll eventually betray us and join forces with Foresque Metal.”

“How did you get your hands on Brown Hand, though? That said, you wouldn’t have known where we were going to select a local company.”

I nodded and handed the baton to Henry.

Because he planned everything.

“At that time, after you pretended to hold our hand and were convinced that you were with Forescu Metal, I thought about it from your point of view. And since I have the authority to construct the infrastructure, I am convinced that I will use it actively. So, the logistics I decided that it would be most effective to obstruct the movement of people.”

No matter how much Seongsam C&T had full power, it was impossible to bring all the manpower and materials from Korea.

In addition, since the contract terms of Louis Hill Holdings specified the local procurement of materials and the ratio of local manpower, collaboration with local companies was essential.

Henry had dug into the local company.

“So how do you know we’ll choose Brown Hand?”
