Happy Tycoon

Chapter 573: Scare Guo Xiaoxiang

Outside Lai City is the vast Solomon Sea.

   The shape of the Solomon Sea is "peculiar." Of course, this peculiarity is due to the limits set by the Solomon Sea.

   From the map, Irian Island is to the east, New Britain is to the north, and the Solomon Sea surrounded by the Solomon Islands to the west and south. It looks like a diamond.

   The islands surrounding the Solomon Sea were formed because of the collision between the Indo-Australian plate and the Pacific plate, because the Solomon Sea sandwiched in between is also a sea area with very complicated topography.

In the southwest of this beautiful sea, the depth of the sea is limited, so you can see endless coral reefs. Many coral reefs are exposed to the surface, forming a reef group similar to the Great Barrier Reef in the south; similarly, in the north of the sea. In the half, there is also a New Britain Basin with an average sea depth of four kilometers, especially at the northernmost edge of this basin, which is close to the New Britain Island. It also has a world depth of six kilometers. The deepest trench is called the Planit Trench. The deepest abyss is 9140 meters deep, ranking ninth among all trenches in the world.

   Now, the "Australian Style" on which Yang Jing and the others are riding, is riding the wind and waves on this trench.

Because Bougainville cannot go, the route they traveled this time was to travel west along the northern edge of the Solomon Sea, passing through New Britain and New Ireland, and then through the Foue Channel into the Bismarck Sea and along the New After walking around the island of Ireland, it enters the Pacific Ocean, bypasses Bougainville and enters the Solomon Islands, then travels around the Solomon Islands, and finally returns to Lae along the southern edge of the Solomon Sea.

With an average cruising speed of 29 knots for the "Australian Style", it will take at least 17 or 8 days to get down this trip. If you need to focus on any place in the middle, you may not be able to return for 20 days. .

   It is precisely because of this that Yang Jing and the others focused their investigation on the northern edge of the Solomon Sea. After all, whether it is New Britain or New Ireland, there are mines that are already being developed. Not to mention the Panguna copper-gold mine on Bougainville Island. There can be a gold mine on Lihir Island on the east side of New Ireland Island with even more abundant reserves than the Borghera gold mine.

   Generally speaking, no matter what mineral resources are, they like to "get together". This has been confirmed in numerous mineral deposits that have been discovered all over the world. Just like the iron ore in northwestern Western Australia, the iron ore in Brazil's "iron four corners", the gold and diamond mines in northern South Africa...

Similarly, the Irian Island-Solomon Islands chain is also rich in precious metal deposits. Otherwise, in this section of the island chain, which is only 1,600 kilometers in length, there are actually three world-class The gold mine is currently being mined. If you count the precious metal ore body that Yang Jing discovered a few days ago and the Panguna copper-gold mine that has not yet started, they are five world-class precious metal mines.

   Such a dense degree is very rare even in the whole world.

   However, after arriving in New Britain Island from Lai, Yang Jing took the helicopter on board the yacht to observe it. As a result, he visited New Britain Island almost in the past two days and found no mineral deposits worth mining.

This is not to say that there are no mineral deposits on New Britain Island. On the contrary, the 37th largest island in the world is rich in mineral resources, but these mineral resources are relatively scattered. I have seen the Borghera gold mine. And after the ore body he discovered, Yang Jing no longer paid attention to these small mineral veins.

To say that if these mineral veins are to be developed by Papua New Guinea or an Australian mining company, there may be no small profits, but if Rongbao Mining comes here from Huaxia for thousands of miles and then mines such small reserves of mineral veins, then It's not worth the gain.

  Since Rongbao Mining has won the first batch of places to enter Papua New Guinea, it must seize this good opportunity, or it must be mined. Once it decides to mine, it must be a world-class big mine.

I took a helicopter to investigate for two days. Except for the Gazel Peninsula in the northeast corner of New Britain Island, there was nothing to gain. This made Yang Jing somewhat disappointed, so he didn't go out this afternoon. Instead, take a break in the sea breeze on the boat, and play with Guo Xiaoxiang by the way.

   It’s not that Yang Jing doesn’t like super yachts. Who doesn’t like this super luxurious toy? Yang Jing considers himself a layman, and it is naturally inevitable.

  Who wouldn’t want to drive one’s own superyacht around the four oceans every year? If we go to the Arctic to see polar bears this year, maybe we can still find Great White; next year, let’s go to Antarctica to see whales and glaciers. Anyway, it’s your own boat, you can toss it as you want, what a cool thing!

   Of course, if it’s okay to drive a super yacht to a scenic spot to seduce sister paper according to what the fat man said, Yang Jing has never thought about it. Having a Gege by his side is enough for Yang Jing. He doesn't want to do anything to come out, so I am sorry not only for Gege, but also for himself and his family.

   But as Yang Jing said, the time is not yet cool. Although Yang Jing aspires to become an extremely chic tycoon, it is really not the time to wait until his private museum is built, and after he completely takes over the Dragon Fund, that is the time to be chic. As for now, let's bear with it.

"I said Lao Yang, why don't you go down two laps? The quality of the sea water here is excellent. In contrast, what Sanya and Guam are all rubbish. I heard Captain Howard say, this area The sea area, you can see things from fifty meters underwater, and it's quite clear."

Yang Jing shook his head and said, "I also know that the water quality in this sea area is very good, but I really don't have the mind to go down. The buddies have not lived enough. Although the water quality here is good, there are many sharks here. If you don't want to die, the most So don’t go swimming. We’re a yacht and we don’t have shark-proof nets around. Why go swimming? Do you want a snack for the sharks?"

   "Damn! Are you menopausal? How can you talk so aggressively? I just said it, are you worthy of going online?"

"Oh? You are unreasonable, right? This is the beginning of the conversation. Since you asked me, if I don't explain it to you, your kid should say that my brother is arrogant. It's all you. That’s right."

After a pause, Yang Jing pushed his sunglasses on his forehead and looked at Guo Xiaoxiang sideways and said: "You kid don't just play with your mouth, don't just talk. You like the water here so much, why don't you go swimming? Two laps? Could it be that you dare not?"

   Guo Xiaoxiang sat up, "Who wouldn't dare to swim two laps? Don't forget that when you were at Royal Holloway College, you were also the bronze medalist in the 1,500-meter freestyle."

  Speaking, Guo Xiaoxiang stood up and moved twice before he was about to dive from the back deck.

  The height of the rear deck of this super yacht is not too high from the surface of the water, only more than two meters. It is absolutely no problem to play diving here.

Watching Guo Xiaoxiang move and want to jump off, Yang Jing said sadly: "Fatty, don't blame brother for not reminding you, the sea area we are now in, below is a sea with a depth of more than 9,100 meters. Yuan, ranked ninth in the world, the ghost knows what looks like below? If you jump down, in case you encounter an unknown creature that swims up from the abyss, bite you with this bite, and then drag you into the nine thousand In Mi’s sea abyss, it is really impossible to see people or corpses..."

   These words almost made Guo Xiaoxiang, who was about to dive, flashed his waist.

   "Damn! Lao Yang, you are not authentic! It's not so scary to scare people, okay? Are you sincere in not letting me go into the water?"

   "Oh? You are weird? When did I not let you into the water? I just talked about the situation in this sea area. If you are afraid, then don't enter the water. Am I blocking you?"

   "Fuck me, then what are you doing if you have nothing to do with me? It's his sister's 9,000-meter deep sea, and an unknown creature. The buddies are almost scared to pee, okay?"

   "Hey, it doesn't matter if you are scared to pee. There is no one else here anyway. No one sees it when you pee. The most important thing is to cause a little pollution here."

   "Fuck you! You are so fucking, buddy doesn't talk to you anymore, you just know to bully me."

   While the brothers were talking and laughing, Chris came over from the front. UU reading www. uukanshu.com

"BOSS, Captain Howard said, we are about to reach Foue Channel ahead, and I will definitely be able to reach Kokopo or Rabaul tonight. He asked me to ask you, where shall we call at the port tonight? Is it Kokopo or Rabaul?"

   Guo Xiaoxiang looked at Yang Jing and motioned for him to make up his mind.

   In fact, these two cities are very good. Rabaul was the capital of Eastern New Britain 20 years ago, and Kokopo is the capital of this province now.

   Of course, in terms of history, Rabaul must be older and Kokopo is just a new city. It's just that Rabaul is surrounded by volcanoes, which is a bit unsafe. The last eruption of Taulu volcano in the south of the city is only twenty-four years ago, which is really scary.

  Ta Ulu is an active volcano, less than six kilometers from Rabaul. In May 1937, the Taulu volcano erupted and killed 571 people and destroyed most of the city. The Australian government even moved the capital of New Guinea from here to the safer city of Lae, and moved back after World War II.

   In July 1971, it was damaged by a strong earthquake again. In 1994, the Taulu volcano erupted again and destroyed 80% of the city's buildings, mainly due to the volcanic ash crushing the roof. Since then, the capital of Papua New Guinea's East New Britain Province has moved to another city, Cokopo, 20 kilometers away.

   But since I'm here, if I don't go around Rabaul, I really can't justify it.

   So Yang Jing said to Chris: "You tell Captain Howard, we will call in Rabaul tonight."

  PS: I would like to thank you for the 500 reward of "Xiaolou Alone at Night Listening to the Rain".
