Chapter 1031: Chapter 556: Counterattack of the Chrysanthemum Organization_3

Then he turned his head and said to Aria:

"Of course, the fee for managing the Kingdom won’t be small."

"That’s not my responsibility," Aria said with a laugh, "Just follow the normal procedures. By the way, how is the oil extracted in the oil field? Can I take a look?"

"You’ve never seen it?" Sean Knight was somewhat surprised. "The Kingdom’s largest financial income should come from oil. Have you never seen an oil extraction machine?"

"No," Aria shook her head, "When my father was alive, he never allowed us to get involved in these areas. Later I was imprisoned, and then my brother Abdullah released me and I took charge of some matters, so I really haven’t been out much."

"Well, let’s rest for a bit, and later we’ll see which nearby oil well is in operation, and we can go take a look there."

Sean Knight himself had never seen the oil well extraction process up close, and he was also very curious.

Elijah Hastings had met Aria and Amina before, and Lincoln Harrington had also briefed him on the procedures involved in acquiring the oil field, so he was very polite to Aria.

"There is an oil well less than one kilometer from here that is being exploited, and we can take a look there later," Elijah said, "It’s hottest now, so we can wait a bit."

The heat in the desert was indeed quite uncomfortable, especially when there was no tree coverage, the heat was even more harmful.

Sean Knight and his party went along with the suggestion and started to tour the Living Area.

"Overall, the facilities here are quite complete," Elijah said while introducing, "It’s just that many Plants were destroyed because of construction. And the previous managers didn’t care about restoring the vegetation, so this little Oasis might degrade..."

"Don’t worry. In time, when our people arrive, they will plant some Plants without needing instructions. After all, we are not short of water here."

"That’s true," Elijah thought about it and chuckled.

Being able to grow watermelons and flowers on a stone-filled island meant planting some vegetation here really shouldn’t be a problem!

At least they would definitely be able to provide some of their own vegetables.

In the afternoon, when the weather was not so hot, Sean Knight and his team arrived at the oil well.

"Actually, after we arrived, we planned to stop all the oil wells," Elijah said as he walked and introduced, "But these wells are self-spraying, and since there was storage space, we didn’t stop them."

There were people managing here, and as soon as they saw Elijah coming, a manager immediately approached.

"This is Mr. Knight, the master of the Oil Field," Elijah introduced, "He came to see the situation of the oil well."

"This man is named Zeid, a local," he then introduced the man to Sean Knight.

"This self-spraying well is simpler to manage, right?" Sean Knight asked.

"Yes," Zeid spoke good English and was quite talkative, "Self-spraying wells use the energy of the rock strata to lift the Crude oil to the wellhead, then through the surface pipeline to the metering station. The equipment is simple, management is convenient, production is high, no artificial energy supplement is needed, which can save a Large quantity of power equipment and maintenance management costs. It’s the simplest, most economical, and efficient oil extraction method.

We now only need two people on shift here."

Sean Knight nodded; he could generally understand the principle, but the Specific details were beyond him.

Previously, he found it novel, but now that he was looking at it, it was just a bunch of metal stuff.

Aria was the same; she looked around, curious, but soon lost interest.

The group returned to the courtyard.

At that moment, a supply delivery car drove into the Courtyard, and workers came over to help.

It was then that Sean Knight realized that there was even a cold storage inside Courtyard!

Tonight, Sean stayed in the courtyard.

After Dinner, Sean Knight took a walk with Aria in the Courtyard, observing security guards changing shifts at the Entrance. The two security guards at the door were carrying batons, as the country banned Guns. Hence, the security guards here couldn’t carry Guns either.

Sean Knight thought that he could perhaps apply to have his own security company dispatched here—Sean Knight’s security company had already applied to become an international security company, and could carry arms during missions in many countries.

The water supply inside Courtyard was abundant, so Aria had taken a bath before coming out.

It was apparent that she was in a good mood, chatting with Sean Knight about some commonplace home topics.

Sean Knight could feel that even such everyday conversations satisfied Aria a lot.

Perhaps because women used to be bound by many restrictions, Aria was now very careful in savoring her freedom.

Sean Knight escorted Aria to her accommodations—a few Guest Rooms in the courtyard were lavishly decorated, apparently for receiving distinguished guests.

They were put to good use just in time.

Later, Elijah Hastings took Sean Knight to see the few people who had been placed under house arrest.

"Boss, after interrogation, these people were mainly in charge of managing this Oil Field," Elijah reported to Sean Knight, pointing at them, "They don’t know much about the Chrysanthemum Organization either; they all were recruited from inside Japan, not even periphery members."

"Let them go when the time comes," Sean Knight said, "Just set them free in a third country and let them find their own way back.

Lets’ see if the Chrysanthemum Organization will let them go—or perhaps they know to avoid them on their own."

Douglas Cooper nodded his head in the room, acknowledging Sean Knight with a gesture.

Those few were blindfolded, hands and feet bound, with items stuffed in their mouths, mainly to prevent their shouting from getting out.

Just as Sean Knight was about to go to sleep, he suddenly had a hunch and immediately called for Elijah Hastings and Lincoln Harrington:

"Be extra careful tonight. Pay special attention to some places; I suspect there might be trouble," he ordered.

"Understood!" both Elijah and Lincoln responded straight away.

For the sudden instruction from Sean Knight, the two did not question it at all. Previous experiences had proved more than once that Sean Knight’s feelings were correct.

This time, it was probably no exception.

The Night turned even blacker.

Inside courtyard, several shadows slowly made their way toward the Courtyard!
