599. Minefield
This Bai Xiangchang also knew, so he also nodded.
At this time, Zhou Rui asked again: "How is the layout on the entire island now?"
Then Bai Xiangchang reported all the recent changes on the island to Zhou Rui.
I have to say that whether it is the construction team, or Bai Xiangchang and Bai Xiaoxi, the efficiency of these people is still very high.
At least the current surface building has been fully formed, and even Ji Qingjun has moved to live in a sea-view villa.
There is not only a sandy beach nearby, but also a lawn and a variety of other pleasing features.
At the same time, the formation on the entire island has also begun to take shape, but as Bai Xiaoxi said before, there is a mineral deposit in the center of this island, and Zhou Rui has not sent anyone to explore it until now.
However, it is believed that this mineral deposit is of great help to Zhou Rui now.
Now with the gradual construction of the island, and Zhou Rui is also ready to develop the island on a large scale, so that the whole island will become a big island of popular tourism in the future.
There is no limit to the amount of money and effort that needs to be invested.
Developing a place is simply a bottomless pit that requires constant investment.
Even with the current income of Ruicai, I am afraid it will be difficult to support it for a long time.
And the mineral deposits on this island gave Zhou Rui a surprise, after all, Bai Xiaoxi's ability is needless to say, and since he has determined that there should be a mineral deposit containing spiritual power on the island, then it is definitely a rare mineral.
It is likely to be gold or silver, or even some other rare minerals.
"I now plan to build the whole island into a big tourist island, so that not only can I hide people's eyes, but also get in touch with more people in the world. ”
Zhou Rui directly said what he thought in his heart.
"As long as our tourism industry is good, then the people who come will naturally be more noble, so the value is immeasurable. ”
As Zhou Rui spoke, Bai Xiangchang couldn't help but nod and said, "In this way, even those pirates won't dare to rob easily." ”
Pirates are rampant here.
Don't look at the trouble that hasn't come to Zhou Rui until now, but if you don't pay attention to it, it is very likely that you will wake up tomorrow morning and find that you have been tied up by pirates.
So in fact, this is the reason why Zhou Rui hired the Wild Wolf Mercenary Group.
As long as they are not particularly powerful pirates, the wolf mercenary group can directly solve them.
"So now there are so many minefields on the whole island, is there any way for you to solve them?"
Zhou Rui also mentioned the key points.
Bai Xiangchang was also stunned, he didn't know about the situation on this island before he came, so he didn't know that there were a lot of mines on this island, but after hearing Zhou Rui's explanation, he said indifferently: "In terms of mines, it is actually very easy to solve, but it also requires a lot of materials, and these materials are relatively expensive, but they are very efficient." ”
Zhou Rui waved his hand and said, "Don't be afraid of spending money, just rely on the sky to solve the troubles of Penglai Island as soon as possible, and develop one day earlier, then the money and energy are worth it." ”
Zhou Rui actually planned to build Penglai Island into something similar to Roland Village at the beginning.
But after thinking about it, forget it.
After all, it was not possible at this time, and now that there are better options, there is no need to repeat the old ways.
Penglai Island is destined to go global, rather than the small fights of the past.
Subsequently, Bai Xiangchang also showed Zhou Rui the list of all the materials he needed, and after Zhou Rui was sure that there was no problem, he directly handed it over to Chu Ziqiu to solve.
In fact, to be honest, he has now completely become the shopkeeper of Ruicai Company.
Many of the things of Ruicai Company are completely handed over to Chu Ziqiu to solve, which is also his complete trust in Chu Ziqiu.
Then, Zhou Rui also took a look at the buildings that had been built on the entire island.
On the shore, a relatively small port has been built, which does not have much carrying capacity, but can accept some fishing boats.
At least the modified armed fishing boats of these people like the Wolf Mercenary Regiment can be carried evenly, and there are many fortifications on the harbor.
These fortifications were basically fast-setting concrete walls, which were mainly protected against shelling, and some important tools were protected behind the walls.
In addition, some watchtowers were also arranged here, mainly for sentry.
The current Penglai Island seems to be a relatively well-functioning stronghold, at least for teammate Zhou Rui and them, as long as they don't fight against those big pirate groups, as well as big sects like the Centipede Sect, it is difficult for anyone to defeat them in one fell swoop.
The most important thing is that Zhou Rui has not been found to be abnormal by the Centipede Sect until now.
Or, in fact, the Centipede Sect discovered an anomaly, but now their own plans are very nervous, and they don't bother to care about Zhou Rui and them.
However, it is clear that such good days will not last long, after all, the Centipede Cult will not allow a new force to grow happily under their noses.
And this is also the reason why Zhou Rui suddenly wants to transform the entire island, as long as he gives the Centipede Sect an illusion, that is, Zhou Rui is actually running for money, then he can make the Centipede Sect pay a lot less attention to him.
"Then let's do this now, and then make the dock a little bigger, and we need to continue to invest money. ”
Zhou Rui is quite satisfied.
And the small basin in the center of the island also built a large group of manors.
This was a bit of a surprise to Zhou Rui, and this was obviously Ji Qingjun's idea.
For Ji Qingjun, the biggest advantage of living on this island is quiet.
She loved the natural environment, and of course, it would be better if it wasn't for the centipede.
However, the so-called marrying a chicken and marrying a dog with a dog, since Zhou Rui chose here, then she, as a wife, can only stay.
It doesn't matter if there are thorns or cliffs ahead, keep your eyes open and walk with him.
It's just that when walking, Ji Qingjun still hopes to see some scenery on the way.
Ji Qingjun is a good designer himself, even if he is not too professional, but he has enough talent.
After many days of investigation, coupled with the plan of the island brought by Hei Yan and others, she compiled some suggestions and professional guidance, and finally planned the manor.
There are scenic areas, there are orchards, and there is a small winery.
In addition, Ji Qingjun deliberately set up a children's play area.
Although for the time being, there is only a pile of fine sand and a swimming pool that has not been dug yet, but it can be seen that she values this place very much.
Think about it, when the child grows up, there must always be a place to play.
I don't know how long I'm going to live here, so I can't let my child have a place to play every day.
Zhou Rui has no superfluous opinions on this matter at all, Ji Qingjun can do whatever she wants, anyway, the place is so big, enough for her to toss.
Moreover, the manor planned by Ji Qingjun does not have high requirements for funds, even if the manor expands by one or two times, Zhou Rui can afford it.
The only trouble is the minefield on the island.
Although the scope has been discovered, knowing that there is such a dangerous place on his territory, Zhou Rui still hopes to be able to clean it up, so as not to kill innocent people.
This is also what Ji Qingjun is most worried about, because she thinks that children like to run around, and if they don't clear the minefield, the ghost knows when they will run over.
If something really happened, there would be no place for the two of them to cry.
In fact, if you really want to clear the minefield, it is not difficult to do this with Zhou Rui's ability.
It's just that now that he has formed his own forces, he can't do everything himself. Even if you encounter a little trouble, you should let your subordinates think of more ways, only in this way can it be meaningful to form a force.
In Zhou Rui's opinion, it is not difficult to clear the minefield, but for ordinary people, it is a very troublesome thing, and the danger is extremely high!
It's like when a border area was left behind by millions of landmines due to the historical reasons of the war, turning an extremely large area into a death zone.
Eighty-seven villagers living in a nearby village were blown up with only seventy-eight legs left because they were in a minefield.
For many years, there have been professional demining teams trying to clear that minefield, but it is difficult to complete the demining work, even with the assistance of the most advanced scientific and technological equipment.
Countless people have lost their lives and become disabled because of demining, and the emergence of heroes is often a tragic statue forged by blood and death.
Compared to the minefields on the border, this island is even more complicated.
The terrain in many areas is complex and steep, and due to the influence of geology, some advanced demining equipment is not useful, so only manual demining methods can be chosen.
Some areas are not too troublesome, and the most important thing is that there are more than 30 types of explosives buried here, which is rare in the world.
Such a hybrid minefield is a problem in itself, otherwise no one would have proposed to build the most sturdy heavy combat vehicles for mechanical demining in an intelligently controlled way.
This idea is not a problem to come to fruition, as long as you find a vehicle engine with enough driving power, the solid alloy will be easy to find. Artificial intelligence or remote control operation can realize the operation of the combat vehicle.
But again, because the terrain is complex and steep, and if the chariot is too heavy, it will be difficult to climb all places.
The main thing is that there are often stormy weather on the islands, and the mines buried in the ground are easily moved to a safe area after being washed away by the rain, which invisibly expands the "minefield" and increases the risk of being blown up by the mines.
