That afternoon, Zhao Meng also learned the news that Yang Jing "made a little money". Of course, when Zhao Meng learned the news, he looked almost the same as Lin Dan.
Driving along the famous Highway 1 from San Francisco to Los Angeles, Lin Dan explained Zhao Meng's mood at that time in one sentence.
"Damn guy! Guy who makes people envy and hate! This is the last word uncle Zhao said." Lin Dan said to Yang Jing while learning from Zhao Meng's tone while shifting and refuelling quickly and surpassing a car in front.
Yang Jing, sitting in the co pilot's position, laughed. "Unexpectedly, even uncle Zhao couldn't hold his breath. Should I be proud, or should I be proud?"
Lin Dan rolled his eyes and read more than a car.
"Wow, XIAOLINZI, you'd better slow down. We're going to be speeding..." XIAOLINZI's title made Lin Dan roll his eyes again, but his speed slowed down.
Yang Jing squinted slightly. From the rearview mirror, she clearly saw that the car driven by Chris and John was closely behind. Behind Chris and John's car, there was also a Chevrolet full-size SUV with the same recognition. In the car sat two other newly hired bodyguards.
Yang Jing had two bodyguards Chris and John when he was only $30 million. Now he has become a real billionaire. It is reasonable to add two bodyguards.
Yang Jing didn't want to build such a big battle array, but Zhao Meng said nothing. In Zhao Meng's words: "You are now a millionaire with a fortune of more than 100 million. Even if you look at the whole United States, there are not many people who can be richer than you, so you must pay attention to your own safety. This is the United States, not China. With your current fortune, I don't have enough of four bodyguards."
Yang Jing thought it was the same thing, so she agreed.
In Zhao Meng's words, Los Angeles is not San Francisco. Chinese are not popular in Los Angeles. Moreover, Chinese usually carry cash when they go out, which is known all over the United States. Therefore, in big cities such as Los Angeles and New York, Chinese have always been the primary target of those damn robbers.
The most important thing is that most of the robbers are addicts. It's better if they don't commit addiction when committing a crime. If they happen to catch up with addiction, it's easy to cause greater harm to the victims.
Those addicts are really careless when they become addicted. If Yang Jing meets such a person, he must have bodyguards to protect him, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable.
So when Yang Jing and Lin Dan drove to Los Angeles the next day, Chris and John introduced their partners in the same team of Titan organization.
When Chris and John were in the Titan organization, there was an operation team. Clark McCann was the fire support hand of the team. He was big and thick. He wore a black suit and sunglasses, which was the standard meat shield bodyguard in the film. The other guy was George Bruce, who was also a very strong man.
With the participation of these two, Yang Jing's trip in the United States will become safer. Four people can form two teams to protect Yang Jing 24 hours a day.
The famous Highway 1 is 460 miles long and connects Los Angeles and San Francisco at the north and south ends respectively. It is known as the most beautiful highway in the United States.
Yang Jing and his team set out from San Francisco at 9 a.m. and had lunch in the residential community outside Vandenberg Air Force base, the largest air force base on the west coast of the United States. It's a pity that Vandenberg Air Force base does not allow tourists to enter, otherwise Yang Jing really wants to visit this famous air force base.
However, standing in the distance, you can also see the fighters taking off and landing constantly. It seems that the base is carrying out some training tasks, and the fighters take off and land more frequently.
"Boss, do you see these two fighters that have just taken off? That is the famous F22 Raptor, which is the most advanced fighter in the world and the most powerful fighter. These two fighters form a standard two aircraft formation and should be used for routine offshore patrol training." Clark McCann, who is five big and three thick behind him, said with great certainty.
Before the strong man joined, Chris once introduced Clark McCann. Although he was tall and big, he also served as a fire support hand in the team, but in terms of military combat ability, Clark was the best in the whole team and even the whole Titan organization. Although he was very big, he went up to F22 Raptor and down to Los Angeles level offensive Nuclear submarine, this guy can play, and he plays very well.
Yang Jing put down her telescope, turned to Clark and asked, "Clark, do you understand these things?"
Clark nodded. George Bruce beside him smiled and said: "before his retirement, Clark was the elite of seal (seal commando). He had been in contact with many high-end weapons of the U.S. military. When he was on a mission in Afghanistan, he once drove F22 to carry out air precision attack on a terrorist base..."
Clark seemed reluctant to mention the previous events. He smiled and waved his hand to stop his friend's explanation. He seemed very modest.
"Wow!" Yang Jing surprised Clark with a big thumb. Although George didn't finish, Yang Jing could understand the meaning behind these explanations, so he didn't hesitate to give the new bodyguard a great appreciation.
"Well, when we get to Los Angeles and finish our business, can we find a gun shop and let's shoot a few shots? Clark, you know I'm from China and have never touched a gun. I want you to teach me."
Clark smiled and said, "boss, just the gun shop is not enough. We need to find a gun shop with a shooting range. I happen to know that several gun shops have shooting ranges. I can take you there if you like."
After the conversation, several people continued to drive on the road, but at this time, Yang Jing's car was not driven by Lin Dan. Clark took over the steering wheel controlled by Lin Dan and drove for Yang Jing and Lin Dan himself.
At more than 4 p.m., they arrived in downtown Los Angeles in three cars.
In fact, Los Angeles is located in the Los Angeles basin. The basin is surrounded by mountains on three sides and sea on one side. Except for some hills, the ground is flat, with an average altitude of only 84 meters, and the highest point, Elsie peak, is 1548 meters high.
But in this wide basin, it contains extremely rich oil resources. Even now, this huge basin is known as "half the city and half the oil field", which is enough to illustrate the rich oil resources of the Los Angeles basin.
In fact, California has long been known for its rich oil droplets on the surface - that is, the outcrop of oil in the earth's crust on the ground, which is one of the important signs of looking for oil mines - and the local Indians have been doing business with it.
In the 1850s, some people made special research on the oil seedlings in the Los Angeles basin, but these people never connected the abundant oil seedlings on the surface with the huge underground oil reservoirs. Until more than 20 years later, the first commercial oil well in the Los Angeles basin was drilled in Pico in the north of the Los Angeles basin, and the hole layout of this oil well was based on the oil seedlings exposed to the surface.
The successful drilling of this oil well has provided a golden rule for the exploration and drilling of commercial oil wells in the Los Angeles basin, that is, never drill without oil seedlings!
In fact, this golden rule did play a great role in the early exploration. The first large oil field in the Los Angeles basin, the famous Los Angeles City oil field, was discovered in 1892.
In 1890, Los Angeles, with a total population of only 50000, also caused a large number of oil workers to come to this small city because of the discovery of this oil field, which played an inestimable role in promoting the future development of Los Angeles.
Just as San Francisco was built because of gold mines, Los Angeles actually flourished because of oil.
With the discovery of Los Angeles City oil field, more capital is rapidly transferred from the east coast to the west coast. The economic giants represented by the Rockefeller family have made enough money on California oil.
In the three years from the discovery of Los Angeles City oilfield to 1895, the daily output of 300 oil wells in the oilfield increased to 792000 barrels, which attracted a lot of funds to Los Angeles.
With the help of huge funds, people discovered the midwesansett oil field with a reserve of 250 million tons in 1894 and the Kern River oil field with a reserve of 85 million tons in 1899.
The discovery of these oil fields has stimulated the influx of funds and accelerated the development of Los Angeles.
In the first two decades of the 20th century, a huge amount of money and a large number of people turned the whole Los Angeles basin into a steel jungle with oil well racks. La Avenue oil field with reserves of 170 million tons, Montebello oil field with reserves of 120 million tons, Huntington Beach oil field with reserves of 150 million tons, elkeshirs oil field with reserves of 180 million tons
Now the famous long beach in Los Angeles was actually an oil field a hundred years ago, because there, people found the famous signal mountain oil field!
Yang Jing once saw what long beach in Los Angeles was like in 1937 in a black-and-white photo. If Yang Jing hadn't seen the black-and-white photo with his own eyes, he really couldn't believe what the picturesque long beach would have looked like 80 years ago.
Have you ever seen bean sprouts? Yes, long beach in 1937, in that black-and-white photo, it was like the scene of sprouting beans. But what grows on the ground is not bean sprouts, but dense steel oil well frames as dense as bean sprouts.
Not only the long beach, but also Venice. The dense steel oil well racks like forests extend inland from the beach, and you can't see the beautiful scenery 80 years later.
It can be said that at that time, from Venice in the north to Huntington Beach in the south, almost all the coastline of Los Angeles was occupied by this dense oil well rack!
This is Los Angeles 80 years ago! A city completely occupied by an oil well frame made of steel!
In fact, even now, in Los Angeles, from the urban area to the beach, and even on the four islands in San Pedro Bay, kowtow pumping units and some old oil well racks can be seen everywhere. Of course, there are more disguised oil well racks.
What's more surprising is that even after more than 80 years of exploitation, these old oil wells are still producing dark oil.
It can be seriously said that the old oil wells near Los Angeles have great potential. This is true for any oil trader.
Yang Jing thought so before.
But there is always a gap between facts and ideas. When Yang Jing arrived in Los Angeles and inspected for a few days, he felt that his previous ideas seemed to be taken for granted.
Without him, although there are many old oil wells in downtown Los Angeles, and even many old oil wells have been closed for a long time, it is very difficult to reopen those old oil wells for exploitation here.
Los Angeles rose because of oil. Kowtow pumping units still working can be seen everywhere in the urban streets. However, with the continuous development of society, Los Angeles people's patience with these old oil wells everywhere has almost reached a limit.
Many working oil wells are even in residential areas. The noise generated by oil engines when they work makes the surrounding residents miserable, and people have been criticizing that the production of oil wells will cause a certain degree of pollution. Therefore, many people are now opposed to the continued work of those oil wells in downtown Los Angeles, and even propose to shut down these working oil wells.
As for the second or even third exploitation of old oil wells, it is even more difficult.
In 2006, in order to exploit oil, St. James oil company in Los Angeles injected high-temperature steam into an oil well. This is a common way of oil exploitation. Steam is used to heat the thick oil to make it flow, which is convenient for exploitation.
However, things did not develop as the company envisaged. According to the Los Angeles non-governmental organization "land use interpretation center", the pressure deep underground makes viscous oil seep to the ground and emit "toxic gas" from sewers, basements and even roads.
The old oil well of St. James oil company is located in Hill Street in downtown Los Angeles. Relevant departments urgently closed the street, evacuated more than 130 residents around, took weeks to extract the oil infiltrating into the residential basement and repaved the road
Because of this incident, St. James oil company was sued in court.
The working oil well is still opposed by the residents. If you want to reopen an old oil well, don't you make trouble for yourself?
If before the 1950s, let alone open a well, even if you re drill a well, no one cares.
But now, the whole Los Angeles basin is occupied by the city. There is almost no open space in such a large basin. How do you open a well?
This is the Greater Los Angeles area, the second largest metropolitan area in the United States after New York!
In such a prosperous metropolitan area, you still want to reopen the old oil wells, which is definitely not an ordinary difficulty. Now it's not before. In the past, Los Angeles pointed to oil. Now people don't expect this kind of black and smelly liquid. People have finance, people have movies, people have tourism, and people have ways to make money. That kind of black oil is no longer popular here!
After several days of investigation, Yang Jing and Lin Dan came to such a fact that people had to accept.
It's easy to find old oil wells in Los Angeles. A lot of old oil wells are waiting for you. But if you want to open a well and re exploit it, it's harder than going to heaven!
So after several video calls with Zhao Meng in San Francisco, Yang Jing and Lin Dan had to return to Beaumont, Texas again.
Compared with Los Angeles, Beaumont is better! It is sparsely populated and has a world-class spindle top oil field. The most important thing is that the old oil field reopened last time is here.
If we can continue to "find" an old well or a group of old wells here, it will be very convenient to exploit.
After the party arrived in Beaumont and rested for a day, Yang Jing boarded the rented helicopter.
In Yang Jing's words, brothers should show "great hope Qi skill" in the air and strive to find another well or a group of old oil wells located in "Shengmen"!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
That afternoon, Zhao Meng also learned the news that Yang Jing "made a little money". Of course, when Zhao Meng learned the news, he looked almost the same as Lin Dan.
Driving along the famous Highway 1 from San Francisco to Los Angeles, Lin Dan explained Zhao Meng's mood at that time in one sentence.
"Damn guy! Guy who makes people envy and hate! This is the last word uncle Zhao said." Lin Dan said to Yang Jing while learning from Zhao Meng's tone while shifting and refuelling quickly and surpassing a car in front.
Yang Jing, sitting in the co pilot's position, laughed. "Unexpectedly, even uncle Zhao couldn't hold his breath. Should I be proud, or should I be proud?"
Lin Dan rolled his eyes and read more than a car.

With your current fortune, I don't have enough of four bodyguards."
Yang Jing thought it was the same thing, so she agreed.

Clark, you know I'm from China and have never touched a gun. I want you to teach me."Clark smiled and said, "boss, just the gun shop is not enough. We need to find a gun shop with a shooting range. I happen to know that several gun shops have shooting ranges. I can take you there if you like."After the conversation, several people continued to drive on the road, but at this time, Yang Jing's car was not driven by Lin Dan. Clark took over the steering wheel controlled by Lin Dan and drove for Yang Jing and Lin Dan himself.At more than 4 p.m., they arrived in downtown Los Angeles in three cars.In fact, Los Angeles is located in the Los Angeles basin. The basin is surrounded by mountains on three sides and sea on one side. Except for some hills, the ground is flat, with an average altitude of only 84 meters, and the highest point, Elsie peak, is 1548 meters high.But in this wide basin, it contains extremely rich oil resources. Even now, this huge basin is known as "half the city and half the oil field", which is enough to illustrate the rich oil resources of the Los Angeles basin.In fact, California has long been known for its rich oil droplets on the surface - that is, the outcrop of oil in the earth's crust on the ground, which is one of the important signs of looking for oil mines - and the local Indians have been doing business with it.In the 1850s, some people made special research on the oil seedlings in the Los Angeles basin, but these people never connected the abundant oil seedlings on the surface with the huge underground oil reservoirs. Until more than 20 years later, the first commercial oil well in the Los Angeles basin was drilled in Pico in the north of the Los Angeles basin, and the hole layout of this oil well was based on the oil seedlings exposed to the surface.The successful drilling of this oil well has provided a golden rule for the exploration and drilling of commercial oil wells in the Los Angeles basin, that is, never drill without oil seedlings!In fact, this golden rule did play a great role in the early exploration. The first large oil field in the Los Angeles basin, the famous Los Angeles City oil field, was discovered in 1892.In 1890, Los Angeles, with a total population of only 50000, also caused a large number of oil workers to come to this small city because of the discovery of this oil field, which played an inestimable role in promoting the future development of Los Angeles.Just as San Francisco was built because of gold mines, Los Angeles actually flourished because of oil.With the discovery of Los Angeles City oil field, more capital is rapidly transferred from the east coast to the west coast. The economic giants represented by the Rockefeller family have made enough money on California oil.In the three years from the discovery of Los Angeles City oilfield to 1895, the daily output of 300 oil wells in the oilfield increased to 792000 barrels, which attracted a lot of funds to Los Angeles.With the help of huge funds, people discovered the midwesansett oil field with a reserve of 250 million tons in 1894 and the Kern River oil field with a reserve of 85 million tons in 1899.The discovery of these oil fields has stimulated the influx of funds and accelerated the development of Los Angeles.In the first two decades of the 20th century, a huge amount of money and a large number of people turned the whole Los Angeles basin into a steel jungle with oil well racks. La Avenue oil field with reserves of 170 million tons, Montebello oil field with reserves of 120 million tons, Huntington Beach oil field with reserves of 150 million tons, elkeshirs oil field with reserves of 180 million tonsNow the famous long beach in Los Angeles was actually an oil field a hundred years ago, because there, people found the famous signal mountain oil field!Yang Jing once saw what long beach in Los Angeles was like in 1937 in a black-and-white photo. If Yang Jing hadn't seen the black-and-white photo with his own eyes, he really couldn't believe what the picturesque long beach would have looked like 80 years ago.Have you ever seen bean sprouts? Yes, long beach in 1937, in that black-and-white photo, it was like the scene of sprouting beans. But what grows on the ground is not bean sprouts, but dense steel oil well frames as dense as bean sprouts.Not only the long beach, but also Venice. The dense steel oil well racks like forests extend inland from the beach, and you can't see the beautiful scenery 80 years later.It can be said that at that time, from Venice in the north to Huntington Beach in the south, almost all the coastline of Los Angeles was occupied by this dense oil well rack!This is Los Angeles 80 years ago! A city completely occupied by an oil well frame made of steel!In fact, even now, in Los Angeles, from the urban area to the beach, and even on the four islands in San Pedro Bay, kowtow pumping units and some old oil well racks can be seen everywhere. Of course, there are more disguised oil well racks.What's more surprising is that even after more than 80 years of exploitation, these old oil wells are still producing dark oil.It can be seriously said that the old oil wells near Los Angeles have great potential. This is true for any oil trader.Yang Jing thought so before.But there is always a gap between facts and ideas. When Yang Jing arrived in Los Angeles and inspected for a few days, he felt that his previous ideas seemed to be taken for granted.Without him, although there are many old oil wells in downtown Los Angeles, and even many old oil wells have been closed for a long time, it is very difficult to reopen those old oil wells for exploitation here.Los Angeles rose because of oil. Kowtow pumping units still working can be seen everywhere in the urban streets. However, with the continuous development of society, Los Angeles people's patience with these old oil wells everywhere has almost reached a limit.Many working oil wells are even in residential areas. The noise generated by oil engines when they work makes the surrounding residents miserable, and people have been criticizing that the production of oil wells will cause a certain degree of pollution. Therefore, many people are now opposed to the continued work of those oil wells in downtown Los Angeles, and even propose to shut down these working oil wells.As for the second or even third exploitation of old oil wells, it is even more difficult.In 2006, in order to exploit oil, St. James oil company in Los Angeles injected high-temperature steam into an oil well. This is a common way of oil exploitation. Steam is used to heat the thick oil to make it flow, which is convenient for exploitation.However, things did not develop as the company envisaged. According to the Los Angeles non-governmental organization "land use interpretation center", the pressure deep underground makes viscous oil seep to the ground and emit "toxic gas" from sewers, basements and even roads.The old oil well of St. James oil company is located in Hill Street in downtown Los Angeles. Relevant departments urgently closed the street, evacuated more than 130 residents around, took weeks to extract the oil infiltrating into the residential basement and repaved the roadBecause of this incident, St. James oil company was sued in court.The working oil well is still opposed by the residents. If you want to reopen an old oil well, don't you make trouble for yourself?If before the 1950s, let alone open a well, even if you re drill a well, no one cares.But now, the whole Los Angeles basin is occupied by the city. There is almost no open space in such a large basin. How do you open a well?This is the Greater Los Angeles area, the second largest metropolitan area in the United States after New York!In such a prosperous metropolitan area, you still want to reopen the old oil wells, which is definitely not an ordinary difficulty. Now it's not before. In the past, Los Angeles pointed to oil. Now people don't expect this kind of black and smelly liquid. People have finance, people have movies, people have tourism, and people have ways to make money. That kind of black oil is no longer popular here!After several days of investigation, Yang Jing and Lin Dan came to such a fact that people had to accept.It's easy to find old oil wells in Los Angeles. A lot of old oil wells are waiting for you. But if you want to open a well and re exploit it, it's harder than going to heaven!So after several video calls with Zhao Meng in San Francisco, Yang Jing and Lin Dan had to return to Beaumont, Texas again.Compared with Los Angeles, Beaumont is better! It is sparsely populated and has a world-class spindle top oil field. The most important thing is that the old oil field reopened last time is here.If we can continue to "find" an old well or a group of old wells here, it will be very convenient to exploit.After the party arrived in Beaumont and rested for a day, Yang Jing boarded the rented helicopter.In Yang Jing's words, brothers should show "great hope Qi skill" in the air and strive to find another well or a group of old oil wells located in "Shengmen"!
