If the target was Yun Yi's diamond mine, Maple Leaf Country's peculiar court would sentence the entire Maple Leaf Country's government to complete bankruptcy.
All the assets of the Qing family added up would probably not be enough to compensate Yun Yi.
When the time came, once those assets were sealed, this country of nearly ten million square kilometers would be paralyzed.
What else could he do?
The country would be paralyzed, and the civil servants would go home to take care of their children.
Alright, the above was just wishful thinking, but it also meant that Yun Yi's investment was safe. At least this was a land that was quite law-abiding.
In a capitalist society, everything was decided by capital.
These were the rules of the game.
Antitrust laws wouldn't work here.
He sat in the plane and looked down at the wilderness through the porthole.
There was a slight engine noise in his ears. Yun Yi was thinking too much.
In some places, a single notification could cause you to lose everything, but not here.
There would be a return for what he had done. Private property was sacred and inviolable.
...
The speed of the plane was not fast. It was estimated to be less than 300 kilometers per hour.
The pilot began to descend, and the voice of the pilot came from the horn in the cabin.
"All passengers, please fasten your seatbelts. We have arrived at the destination and will be landing soon.”
Yun Yi stuck his head out to take a look. Alright, the island he had seen in the picture appeared in front of him on his left. Below the plane was a huge lake.
Including this piece of land, the 200 square kilometers to the north was his private land. At least five billion dollars of wealth was waiting for him there.
The lake looked deep enough, but the pilots were not sure if there would be a shallow swamp somewhere in the lake.
The passenger plane swayed and some birds flew up, which made it even more necessary for someone to chase them away.
Water take-off and landing felt very different from land take-off and landing. The take-off distance was long enough.
However, when they landed, Yun Yi felt that the plane seemed to have just landed on the water and stopped in the blink of an eye.
Yun Yi did not move first, and the bodyguards went up first.
This was not a battle. They could not let the seaplane approach rashly. They had to use a kayak to land first.
The plane stopped 20 to 30 meters away from the island. Jeff and Santa opened the rear hatch, holding an orange rubber bag.
He pulled a red string and quickly threw it out.
A rubber dinghy that was quickly inflated appeared on the water beside the plane.
The two brothers went up first and measured the depth of the water while the others waited patiently.
After half an hour, Jeff finally used a few pitons to connect the rope to the rubber dinghy and fixed it to the shore.
After everything was done, the plane approached and used the rubber boat as a buffer.
The passengers got off first and were not in a hurry to inspect.
There was some luggage in the passenger cabin, and the luggage compartment was stuffed with a lot of equipment.
Yun Yi also worked and let Hai Lu direct the distribution of the supplies.
The island was only a meter above the water.
At first glance, it was an irregular flat terrain. There were no trees on the ground.
There were only moss, lichen, and some nameless low herbs that only appeared in this season.
The terrain was very low, but it was not surrounded by the sea, so there was no need to worry about high tides.
After Jeff chose the location to set up camp, the arrangement of the camp was handed over to Hai Lu. She had more experience in setting up camp in the wild, at least more than Yun Yi.
After unloading the supplies on the plane, Jeff and the others went to set up their tents.
This time, they didn't use the small quick-opening tents. Instead, they used the larger military tents. There were two large tents and one small tent.
The small one belonged to Yun Yi, Hai Lu, and Hai Lu. The big one lived there while the other stored supplies.
There was a lot of thin soil exposed on the island, but for safety, the tents were built by using a large hammer to smash the rock nails into the rocks and tightening them with ropes.
As far as the eye could see, the terrain was flat. If there was a strong wind, there would be no place to hide. The tent had to be tightly set up.
"That's right. I was worried that there would be too many mosquitoes.”
After smashing the last two nails and setting up a tent, Yun Yi said to Hai Lu, who was looking around with binoculars.
"The wind is strong. When the wind stops, I wonder if they will surround us.”
The wind was very strong, and Hai Lu's hair was blown up. She was wearing a jacket from head to toe, and she looked a little valiant.
He looked at the thermometer hanging on the tent cloth.-25 degrees, the temperature was too low.
After more than an hour of work, the camp was finally established. It was almost 10 o'clock.
He placed a light table on the ground outside the tent and spread out an aerial map of the area. He pressed the gravel he picked up on the ground at the four corners.
"Everyone, the entire island is about 20 square kilometers in area. Don't worry about the rest. Let's check the 4 square kilometers of land in the protruding area on the east.”
After saying that, he straightened up and pointed at a piece of land more than a kilometer away. He pointed it out on the map and said,"It can be considered an island. The westernmost part of it is connected to the island under our feet.
After the survey was completed, the exploration team would go over there to take a look at the geological conditions and see if they could build a 2000-meter runway.”
Well, the experts were already numb to this kind of action that required a huge amount of money to support.
"So long?" Hai Lu asked.”
"It's better to be prepared. There's no need to build an airport. Five or six runways will do. When the workers changed shifts in winter, they would probably have to rent a plane. A passenger plane was more convenient than those C130s. If he rented 130 meters, then 1500 meters would be enough.”
There was no need to dwell on this problem. The airport runway had to be built, but it was estimated that it would take at least one or two years.
The location where everyone landed was the easternmost part of the island. Yun Yi took a pencil and drew a rough triangle on the map.
"The exploration team will split into three teams and search from the three corners to the middle area.”
The few of them nodded and set off on their own.
The exposed rocks on the island were all granite, but most of the ground was covered with moss and lichen. The exploration team would use a crow's beak to chisel the exposed rocks from time to time.
Even if Yun Yi knew that the huge kimberlites were nearby, he had to look for them slowly. He could not rush.
The exploration team was completely immersed in their work. Yun Yi, Hai Lu, and Hai Lu were too embarrassed to disturb him. They were like three groundhogs, searching and digging everywhere.
Jeff was carrying a FAL on his back and swinging a huge hoe in his hand. Suddenly, he started to chisel hard rocks. With a loud bang, the rocks he chiseled out were smashed by the eight-pound hammer attached to his belt.
Treasure hunting was quite fun.
Hai Lu was obviously impatient. It had only been less than half an hour, and she was already feeling bored. She was about to return to the camp.
At this moment, he suddenly heard the exploration team member say,"Boss, we found something."
They immediately surrounded him and saw that he was holding a green ore crystal that was slightly larger than his thumb.
The exploration team members were all smiles, and their voices were even higher."Boss, this is a green crystal of Diopside. Diopside crystals are very fragile and can't withstand the long-distance transportation of glaciers. Its mother ore, the kimberlite-like tube, must be under our feet.”
They were very excited. After working for so many years, they had never heard of anyone making a major discovery within half an hour of the beginning of the search. The exploration team members felt that their luck was about to explode!
"Boss is right. His luck has always been good.”
Yun Yi took the small green crystal and laughed.
He didn't even use the walkie-talkie and shouted to the east,""Mining team, bring the explosives over.”
The campsite was 70 to 80 meters away.
Just as Yun Yi was shouting at the top of his lungs, the walkie-talkie hanging on Jeff's body rang. Another exploration team had also found Diopside.
This was a good sign. He was going to make a fortune!!
The kimberlites were a kind of slightly alkali-like, brucite-like micaceous peridotite.
Among them, the kimberlites with a porphyric structure and rich in coarse olivine particles are rich in diamond, while the kimberlites with a microscopic porphyric structure and rich in phlogopite are rich in diamond.
The ores here had a standard mottled structure and were rich in coarse olivine particles. There was definitely diamond in them. He wondered how good the gemstone quality would be.
