Think solar panels can come in handy.

Lin Xiaobao took a moment to entrust the clerk to communicate with the headquarters to see if he could make a discount and let the company provide a complete set of power solutions.

In terms of funds, I thought it would be a big deal to find a way to take out a loan, or arrange more villagers to dig sapphires, I believe that under the stimulation of electric lights and fans, it is enough to make the residents on the island crazy.

In total, there are only a few hundred households, and even if an average household uses ten kilowatt-hours of electricity per day, hundreds of sets of equipment must be barely enough, far more convenient than the wind turbines and so on that Lin Xiaobao envisioned before.

And pulling wires directly from the island to the volcanic island means that you will have to look at the face of Honolulu in the future, and there will definitely be a lot of trouble, and it is better to rely on others than on yourself.

Afterwards.

Lin Xiaobao borrowed Daniel's identity as an agent and registered four rooms in the hotel, one room for him and Daniel, and one room for the guards.

They were all the last group of guards who had come to Honolulu, and they had seen the world, so they didn't make any more fuss, and they went back to their rooms to rest first.

After talking to Daniel, the communication was much smoother.

At this moment, Lin Xiaobao knocked on the door of the other party's room and told Daniel: "Rest for two hours, take a shower and change clothes, and then while the store is not closed, I will ask where anyone is willing to buy sapphires in large quantities, I will first look for the contact information of the jeweler on the Internet." ”

Daniel was brushing his teeth, wiping the sweat from his head, and replied, "Okay, I'll set an alarm clock and wait for you in the room." You have brought a lot of money with you this time, I suggest you buy a speedboat, the current fishing boats are too slow, some speedboats only need two hours, you can run from here to the volcanic island, and you can run two or three round trips with a full tank of fuel. ”

"yes, the price ......?"

"It wasn't clear to me that there should be someone online selling second-hand speedboats. ”

Lin Xiaobao felt that it was necessary to buy one, nodded and said: "I'll check it myself, I will definitely come to shop often in the future, it's too slow to take the Nautilus No. 3." ”

......

Go back to the room alone.

Lin Xiaobao logged in to the Facebook account he had just registered a few days ago and found that in just a few days, he had more than 50,000 followers.

It seems that it has rubbed off a wave of news heat, making itself popular on Facebook, and there are a lot of news reports on the opening of the volcanic island recently, and many old histories have been picked up and written into news, and some are even one or two hundred years ago.

Lying on the bed, playing with the air conditioner and playing with the mobile phone, after checking the so-called home rooftop power supply solution, I found that there is a sample machine that can generate megawatts of electricity for only 1.8 million US dollars, enough to power more than 700 homes, provided that there is enough sunlight.

This made Lin Xiaobao very pleasantly surprised, he used to think that this money was very much, but now he is trying to make it together, it doesn't seem to be too tricky, after all, Delia's necklace and his own crown may cost more than 1.8 million US dollars, not to mention that he still has a treasure-grade sapphire in his hand.

I checked the price of sapphire and found that the level is different, the size is different, and the price is very different, but the advantage is that it is big, Lin Xiaobao feels that if he finds a suitable buyer, it is not completely impossible to exchange the sapphire for a set of solar power generation equipment.

My heart is settled, as if I have moved a stone, as if I have seen the scene of the installation of air conditioning in my own thatched hut palace, and there is a TV to pass the time, and the night will not be so difficult.

......

Volcanic island.

Christine and his entourage, after a long journey, have come to the gem mining area.

The appraiser was very experienced, and when he saw a group of people knocking and smashing everywhere, he said decisively:

"When I was younger, I went to Sri Lanka, where the gem mines were usually underground, and then washed with water like gold panning to find sapphires.

The lava layer here should still be very new, and I checked the information before I came, and it has only been more than 80 years since the last eruption, so it is easier to mine if there is mine. ”

Delia personally led them over and paid another $100 for the tour guide.

She said hello to the familiar villagers at this moment, and among the fat twins, the young man nicknamed Little Fat came over enthusiastically, and after the conversation, he personally helped bring the sapphire rough.

The last batch was just taken away by Lin Xiaobao, and only a few were mined today, all of which were less than the size of a fingernail, and it was not easy to retain a small part of it in the high-temperature lava, and most of them were eroded by the lava.

Christine took it and read it, handed it over to the appraiser for help, and watched the lively scene of the villagers mining gems, and she already believed it in her heart.

She said to Delia, "Is this how you are, mining sapphires little by little?"

Delia wondered and asked her, "What else?" I just bought a new batch of hammers, and it will be easier to find gems in the future. ”

Christine was slightly speechless, a strong woman's character, the most unseemly wasted of time and inefficiency, When she thought of what kind of environment she was in, she laughed at herself: "I thought I would use a machine, which would be faster for mining, but you don't even have electricity here, so it's really more convenient to use a hammer." ”

Before the chief went out, he talked to Delia beforehand, saying that the group might have come to buy sapphires.

Therefore, Delia did not mind the strange question of the other party, and told him as if to show off, "There are many similar gems hidden here, and a small bag has been collected, some of the stones are blue, and very beautiful, and the largest one is so large that the chief tells us that it is very valuable, and can be exchanged for many large ships." ”

Seeing Delia figure the size, Christine was surprised, "Is it really that big?"

"Yes. ”

"Where is it now?"

"The chief is there. “

When Christine heard this, as soon as she arrived at the mine, she wanted to go straight down the mountain and go back to the village to see the gem that Delia had mentioned.

There were dark clouds in the sky, and a bolt of lightning lit up, and it rained when it was said.

The villagers who were mining ran to the grass huts and forests, and Delia also took Christine and her party to hide from the rain first.

During this period, the old appraiser found a stone, wiped off the water stains and took a serious look, but it was inlaid with a small gemstone, the grade was still very high, and his confidence in this gem mine was greatly increased, and he felt that it was indeed a rich mine with mining value.

In a hotel in Honolulu.

Lin Xiaobao called several calls one after another, but no one answered, and then realized that he was stupid, the time in Hawaii was a few hours slower than in the continental United States, and the people had already left work, not to mention that it was still Saturday.

I simply went to take a shower first, lay down and watched TV to rest, and patiently waited for the news of the solar power generation equipment......
